Before the words were even finished, Wen Yanche said without hesitation:
"Your Highness, Yan Che is in love with you."
Although Leng Qingning was happy and even excited to hear this, she was also afraid that this was just a pretext he had made up for the sake of peace between the two countries.
Although she didn't think Wen Yanche was the kind of person who was two-faced, there was no love in his eyes, and she couldn't convince herself that he liked her that much.
"Young lord, loving someone isn't about words. If you truly love me, why can't I feel it at all?"
Wen Yanche was speechless. He had never liked anyone else except her. Hadn't he made himself clear enough?
No matter how clever he was, he was so caught up in the situation that he wouldn't have guessed the woman in front of him was vengeful and suspicious. He simply thought Leng Qingning was very difficult to coax.
Leng Qingning stood up. "Young Master, I still have to go to the restaurant. I'll take my leave first." After saying that, she left without looking back.
Lang Yue was filled with remorse. "Young Master, it's all my fault. I deserve to die." He wished he could slap himself a few times.
"It's not your fault, it's just that I didn't do a good enough job."
Wen Yanche gazed at the painting on the wall for a long time, seemingly having made up his mind.
On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Leng Qingning led Cangyuan, Lin Xianzhi, and Lu Shiyi into the mountains to burn incense.
Today is the day for New Year's blessings at Dayue. Hongfu Mountain is packed with people. After the horse-drawn carriage arrived at the foot of the mountain, Leng Qingning and her group walked up the mountain. The scenery in the mountain is pleasant and the air is fresh.
Leng Qingning sighed, "What a magnificent land!"
Such a beautiful view, how could there be someone spoiling the mood?
"Sixth Sister, what a coincidence!"
Haha, you're like a persistent ghost, you're everywhere!
"Fourth Sister, it's quite a coincidence that I could run into you among tens of thousands of people."
The families of both sides exchanged greetings.
"Greetings, Your Highness, Young King."
"Greetings, Your Highness the Fourth Princess."
Leng Qingning then realized that this strange fourth sister had actually brought two men with her.
"Sixth Sister, they are my husbands."
Leng Qingning suddenly realized: "Please rise, both of you."
Leng Qingning felt that Leng Qinghan seemed to be in a good mood today, and she didn't even roll her eyes at her.
"Fourth Sister, has something good happened to you recently?" she asked, her face beaming.
"Yesterday I acquired a treasure, and I was naturally overjoyed." Leng Qinghan's face showed a hint of pride.
"Well then, congratulations, Fourth Sister."
"That's right, this treasure isn't something just anyone can dream of getting."
"..."
You can tell a person's character by their conduct...
Leng Qingning didn't respond, but instead called her husbands up the mountain.
Seeing this, Leng Qinghan curled her lips into a smug smile.
Hung Fook Tong.
The master took Leng Qingning's fortune slip: "Miss, a distinguished person will visit you today."
"A benefactor?" "Thank you, Master. Please take a look at my husbands."
"The young master's first half of life was miserable and helpless, but his luck turned around and he got what he wanted in the second half of his life."
"This young master has a very auspicious fortune. He may encounter minor difficulties, but he will be able to turn them into opportunities and achieve extraordinary success."
"This... Young master, you must not make a mistake. Otherwise, you will regret it later."
"Thank you, Master." The three bowed in gratitude.
On the way down the mountain, the group had different thoughts.
Langya Prefecture
The couple and their three companions enjoyed tea in the front courtyard hall.
"Your Highness, the young lord has arrived," Mo Shuang reported.
"Please come in quickly." Could this distinguished guest be Fifth Brother?
When Wen Yanche arrived, everyone was taken aback.
Both Lin Xianzhe and Cang Yuan couldn't help but show amazement. A hint of disappointment flashed in Lu Shiyi's eyes. The newcomer was incomparably noble, with unparalleled beauty, and unmatched in the world.
Leng Qingning was surprised that Wen Yanche would come. Could it be that the benefactor the master mentioned was him? "Young Master, please sit down."
“They are my husbands.” He said, looking at Cang Linlu and the other two.
"This is Wen Yanche, the young lord of the Lin Kingdom."
The three looked shocked, their eyes glazing over for a moment.
Is he the future ruler? How can he be so stunningly beautiful!
Lin Xian lowered her eyes subconsciously, a hint of sadness in her expression. Cang Yuan's eyes revealed a palpable sense of melancholy; with such a dignified presence as his lord, would His Highness only ever love him? Lu Shiyi carefully observed Wen Yanche, a flicker of resentment in his eyes.
Wen Yanche took in the expressions of the others and began to consider his options.
"Your Highness, I apologize for disturbing you these past few days."
"What does the young lord mean?"
"Her Majesty the Empress has granted me special permission to enter the palace for a few days so that I may spend more time with Your Highness."
…Although, Leng Qingning was secretly a little excited. However, she still had to maintain appearances.
"Please proceed, young master." He said calmly.
The group looked at each other in silence.
After a cup of tea.
"Your Highness, a young master requests an audience."
"Who is it again? Please come in." Leng Qingning wondered, were there so many important people today?
Chi Yan was not wearing a mask today. He had a languid expression, a noble demeanor, and strode over with an arrogant gait.
Upon entering the hall, his smile froze on his face. How could there be so many handsome men? Especially the one in the main seat; even he couldn't help but sigh, "A handsome man is a curse."
It's really an eyesore.
Several people in the hall: How did we provoke another one! And she's so beautiful and aggressive.
"Young Master Chi? How did you find your way here?" Leng Qingning's usually calm expression almost cracked.
"If I want to, there's no place I can't find." Chi Yan found a seat and sat down, not caring whether the others welcomed him or not.
This seat?
I told you he wasn't a simple person.
Who are you? What do you want?
"Your Highness, I hate being deceived the most. I was sincere, but you deceived me. How will you compensate me?" The voice was filled with anger.
Upon hearing this, the husbands were all taken aback.
Leng Qingning's lips twitched.
Hey, hey, hey, is this even human language?
He quickly glanced at Wen Yanche, then at the others.
Wen Yanche's expression remained unchanged, Lin Xianzhi's eyes showed hurt, Cang Yuan's expression was unfriendly, and Lu Shiyi... it was hard to tell.
Leng Qingning couldn't sit still any longer and stood up.
"Young Master Chi, please don't speak like that. I've only met you once, and I merely gave you a false name. Do you really need to make such a big deal out of it?"
What if the handsome men misunderstand?
She was just using the name of her haunting fourth sister, was it really that big of a deal?
Chi Yan was furious when he saw how much Leng Qingning cared about the others and how eager she was to distance herself from him.
"Do you know that I thought that the Fourth Princess was you? And that you caused me to lose what is most important to me?"
? ? ? not understand!
The most important thing? Did he lose his virginity?
"Explain yourself more clearly," Leng Qingning said impatiently.
"I gave her my Heavenly Token, all because you, woman, deceived me," Chi Yan accused.
Oh! It's no big deal.
"It's just a waist token. I'll have someone give you ten times the amount you need." Leng Qingning waved her hand dismissively.
Don't think she hasn't read the novel; as long as there's a pattern, it can be made of gold.
"You." Chi Yan's hands trembled with anger.
Upon hearing the words "Azure Sky," Wen Yanche and Cang Yuan immediately became alert.
"Young Master Chi, if 10 isn't enough, how about 100? Any more than that and we won't have any left." She still needs to support her husband.
