When my vicious stepmother mistakenly married me to the Immortal Lord

Jiang Song didn't ask too much. After a simple breakfast, he went out with Xiuyun.

The attendant who had just come to report had not left. He was waiting in the courtyard. His green shirt contrasted with the wintersweets on the treetops, making him particularly eye-catching.

"Madam, I am the young master's personal bodyguard, my name is Xie Ruyi. The young master asked me to lead the way for you."

As she spoke, two shallow dimples appeared on Xie Ruyi's face, clear, warm, and pleasing.

Ruyi, a grown man, actually had such a gentle name.

Jiang Song repeated it silently in his mind and couldn't help but find it a little funny.

But she only nodded slightly, without revealing her smile, and said softly, "Thank you for your help."

Xie Ruyi nodded, made a gesture of invitation, and then led the way.

The three of them walked forward along the winding courtyard path.

Xie's mansion is extremely large, with pavilions, towers, waterside terraces and long corridors. The layout is exquisite, and there is a new scene at every step.

It was strange to say, but they didn't see any servants from the Xie Mansion along the way. The huge Xie Mansion was so quiet that it was almost eerie.

Jiang Song asked, "Xiuyun, when did the young master leave this morning?"

Xiuyun thought for a moment and said, "Miss, I and the maids stayed outside until very late last night. We only left when we saw you and the young master had gone to bed. As for when the young master left, I really don't know."

"Last night... you and the maids were guarding outside the room the whole time?" Jiang Song's face was full of embarrassment.

Xiuyun said frankly, "Yes, the young master and the young lady are both virgins after all, so we have to wait outside in case they need us."

Jiang Song was speechless. What kind of thing was this? After what happened last night, even if she really needed something, she couldn't say it out loud.

As he was speaking, a lake appeared before his eyes. Daffodils were blooming on the lakeside, like fairies standing gracefully on the water.

A small boat was sailing slowly on the lake. A figure was standing on the bow, with fluttering clothes, like a banished immortal.

At this moment, he was standing quietly at the bow, gazing into the distance, wondering what he was thinking.

The lake was shrouded in mist, and Jiang Song could not see the man's face clearly, but she was inexplicably attracted by the figure. She stopped by the lake and looked at the small boat in the distance.

Could it be that he is...Xie Changyan?

Jiang Song's heart moved, and he subconsciously wanted to move closer to see more clearly.

However, at this moment, the leaf boat suddenly changed direction and headed towards the other side of the lake, gradually going farther and farther away.

"Young Madam, we should leave," Xie Ruyi reminded from the side, "Yongshou Hall is not far ahead."

Jiang Song came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly, "Okay, let's go."

She was secretly annoyed in her heart that she had been so absorbed in staring at a figure's back, which was really inappropriate.

However, that back view did leave a deep impression on her.

Jiang Song followed Xie Ruyi and continued forward, but he couldn't help but recall the scene just now in his heart.

Yongshou Hall is located in the center of Xie Mansion. The building is magnificent, with flying eaves and pointed corners, green tiles and red roofs, and has a strong classical charm.

As you step into the courtyard, you will see lush flowers and trees, rockery and flowing water, which gives it a unique elegance.

Jiang Song followed Xie Ruyi through the winding corridors and saw an archway with three large characters "Yongshou Hall" written on it. The characters were vigorous and powerful, with extraordinary momentum.

"Young Madam, please wait here for a moment. The young master will be here soon." After Xie Ruyi said this, she turned and walked in another direction, as if to look for Xie Changyan.

Jiang Song was supported by Xiuyun and stood outside the archway, feeling uneasy.

The legitimate sister Jiang Jun was unwilling to marry Xie Changyan, so she pushed her concubine's daughter out to ward off disaster. The Xie family had grievances against the Anding Marquis Mansion, and this resentment was bound to be transferred to her, the new bride.

"Miss, the master and the mistress will probably say something unpleasant later. We just need to listen and don't take it to heart." Xiuyun saw through her thoughts.

"Yeah." Jiang Song responded softly and adjusted his mood so as not to lose his composure.

After a while, Xie Ruyi came back quickly, and the person behind him was the young man on the boat by the lake just now.

It turned out that he was her husband - Xie Changyan!

At this moment, Jiang Song finally saw Xie Changyan's true face.

That beauty is truly not something that can be found in this mortal world. It is like a carefully carved jade statue, so handsome to the extreme!

Her eyes were as deep as the night sky, dotted with twinkling stars, her nose was high, her lips were thin and rosy, and she had a natural indifference and alienation.

A small mole at the end of the left eye adds a unique charm to this overly cold face, making it look both unruly and inexplicably heartbreaking.

He was dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, with a long gown of the same color embroidered with cloud patterns on the outside, and a white jade belt tied around his waist. He looked both elegant and noble.

As she walked, her clothes fluttered gently, exuding an air of fairy spirit, like an immortal walking out of a painting, making people unforgettable at first sight.

Jiang Song's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. She had never seen such a charming person, not even in her dreams.

The tender moments of last night flooded into her mind like a tide the moment she saw Xie Changyan's true face, making her shy and a little dazed.

If Jiang Jun knew that her fiancé, whom she was avoiding, was such a stunning man, I wonder if she would regret her choice.

Xie Changyan walked up to Jiang Song and nodded slightly as a greeting.

Jiang Song quickly straightened her dress and bowed, "Greetings, my husband."

Xie Ruyi coughed lightly, breaking the delicate atmosphere between the two and signaling them to go in.

Xie Changyan's gaze gently passed over Jiang Song, without a trace of emotion in his eyes. After a moment, he turned around and walked away.

Jiang Song followed closely behind, but his heart was in turmoil.

This... doesn't look like a sickly person?

At most, he was just a little thinner, but his steps were steady and his temperament was extraordinary. How could he not look weak and sickly as the rumors said?

Jiang Song muttered to himself, but did not stop. He followed Xie Changyan into the gate of Yongshou Hall.

As you step into the main hall of Yongshou Hall, a faint scent of sandalwood hits you in the face, making you feel peaceful and calm.

The furnishings in the hall are simple and elegant, with various precious porcelain and jade wares displayed, showing the heritage of the Xie family.

There was only a middle-aged man sitting on the main seat. He was wearing a dark blue brocade robe, with a calm face and a majestic air. This was the head of the Xie family, Xie Changyan's father, Xie Guangting.

Jiang Song glanced at the empty seat next to Xie's father and knew in his heart that Xie's mother probably looked down on her as a concubine's daughter-in-law who was pushed out to prevent the marriage, so she was unwilling to even come to drink the daughter-in-law's tea.

She took a deep breath and prepared herself for the coming storm.

In feudal society, the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children was like a chasm. As a illegitimate daughter, she was lucky enough to marry into the Xie family. How could she expect to be loved by her parents-in-law?

What's more, she just wanted to use this marriage to escape from the evil den of Anding Marquis Mansion. As for the attitude of the Xie family, she didn't care much.

"Your mother caught a cold last night and is not feeling well, so she won't come to see you in person. I hope your daughter-in-law won't mind." Xie Guangting didn't exchange many pleasantries and directly explained the reason for his mother's absence.

Jiang Song quickly stepped forward and bowed, "Ah Song, I dare not. Mother's health is the most important thing. I will visit her again after she recovers."

This also relieved the embarrassment in her heart. At least the Xie family did not embarrass her directly, but found a decent excuse.
