The war god prince climbs the wall every night, and the princess is angry

The night is deep.

After finishing her dinner, Lin took a short nap and couldn't wait to go to the study in the front yard with some cold tea.

From a distance, the servant saw Lin's figure and came forward to greet her.

Madam Kong stepped forward and said, "Madam saw that the Marquis was very hard at work, so she brought him some cold tea."

A trace of panic flashed in the servant's eyes when he heard this. He forced himself to remain calm and said, "Madam, please leave it to me. I will take it back to the Marquis."

"How dare you!" Madam Kong scolded angrily, "Madam specially prepared this herbal tea and sent it to the study. Of course, I have to hand it to the Marquis personally to fulfill Madam's wishes."

Lin, who was standing behind Madam Kong, also had a hint of displeasure in her eyes. When did such an ignorant servant come to the front yard?

"This..." The servant said in a panic, "It's better to let me handle the nanny. The Marquis is currently handling official business and I'm afraid it would be inconvenient to disturb him."

"Who are you to stop Madam?" Madam Kong said angrily.

Lin straightened her back, her voice filled with anger.

"I didn't know that if I wanted to send something to the Marquis, it would have to go through the hands of a servant like you."

The servant was almost crying, thinking that he was unlucky that he had to meet the lady when he was on duty.

He secretly cursed the guards in his heart for being too cunning. The Marquis's study has always been guarded by guards, all of whom are top-notch experts selected by the Marquis.

When the guards saw the lady coming, they hid themselves and pushed themselves out to bear the lady's anger.

He was just the lowest-ranking servant in the Marquis' study, doing only chores like sweeping and pouring tea, yet he had to endure this hardship. What if the lady punished him in anger?

But he couldn't let the lady in either, because the Marquis was not in the study, and he told anyone who came to look for him to say he couldn't find her.

Compared to the lady, the Marquis's orders are more important.

Thinking of this, the servant fell to his knees with a plop.

"Please don't embarrass me, Madam. The Marquis has ordered that I not see anyone tonight."

Lin frowned.

"My Lord, you don't see anyone. I'm not just anyone else. I'm the mistress of the Marquis's mansion. Can't you see me too?"

The servant lowered his head and trembled as he said, "The Marquis said he would not see anyone."

Lin had never suffered such humiliation before and was about to get angry on the spot, but was calmed down by Madam Kong.

Madam Kong leaned close to Lin's ear and said, "Madam, forget it. I guess the Marquis is worried about official business today and doesn't want to see anyone."

"Madam, there is no need to upset the Marquis over such a matter. Just come back tomorrow."

Lin gritted her teeth. She knew what she should do, but she just couldn't bear it.

Madam Kong continued, "Madam, Madam Shen is still living in the mansion. You must not create any rift between you and the Marquis."

When Lin Wanru was mentioned, Lin calmed down instantly.

"In that case, I will not disturb His Majesty from handling official business."

Lin glanced around and the maid beside her immediately handed the food box containing herbal tea to the servant.

The servant took it tremblingly and said respectfully, "This servant respectfully sends the madam off!"

Lin took Madam Kong's hand and turned around, glancing behind her.

The lights in the closed study were on brightly, and five or six guards were standing upright at the door. Despite such a loud noise, there was no movement inside.

Lin walked slowly out of the front yard, but her heart was still uneasy.

After hesitating for a moment, she held Madam Kong's hand and whispered in her ear.

Nanny Kong raised her head and looked at Lin. Seeing Lin's firm attitude, she left Lin and walked towards the front yard.

Yichun Pavilion

Zhou Lingyi sat in front of the dressing table, stroking the ruby ​​hairpin in her hand repeatedly.

She looked at the blurry face in the bronze mirror, and slowly touched it with her hand.

"Caiwei, what do you think of my face?"

Caiwei stood to one side and flattered her, "Young lady is quite famous in the circle of noble ladies in the capital. She is so beautiful that even His Royal Highness Prince An is fascinated by her."

Zhou Lingyi didn't smile when he heard this. He just said in a daze, "Yes, men have always loved beautiful women. Who wouldn't like Shen Qionghua, who is so stunning?"

Caiwei's heart lifted when she heard this. She said cautiously, "His Royal Highness Prince An is naturally the best to Miss."

Really?

Zhou Lingyi couldn't quite believe it.

If he really treated her the best, why did he give her the hairpin that Shen Qionghua didn't want?

Even if His Highness gave her an ordinary gold hairpin, she would be very happy, but why did he choose the one that Shen Qionghua didn't want?

Shen Qionghua's face appeared in Zhou Lingyi's mind again.

Facing such a face, Your Highness, is it true that you are not moved?

Even if you don’t feel moved now, what about in the future?

According to His Highness's plan, he will marry Shen Qionghua.

How could they not be moved when they face each other day and night and support each other?

Zhou Lingyi was extremely sure of her position in Xie Qian'an's heart. After all, Xie Qian'an would rather marry a merchant's daughter as his wife than marry the daughter of an important official in the court and make herself a concubine.

But now she was a little uncertain.

When she thought about having to watch her beloved man marry a woman who was inferior to her in every way, and having to give her blessings with a smile on her face, her heart ached.

Zhou Lingyi's mind was full of thoughts and was extremely chaotic. She wanted to go out to take a breath and relax.

Thinking of this, he took Caiwei out of Yichun Pavilion.

The moon is high in the sky and the stars are shining.

Zhou Lingyi was walking slowly with Caiwei's hand in hers, when suddenly she saw a familiar sky-blue figure.

A smile appeared on the corner of her lips. She was about to go up to him when she saw him walking hurriedly forward without noticing her at all.

That direction is - Yunmengxuan.

Zhou Lingyi frowned slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

-

Lanquan Garden.

"boom--"

The sound of a porcelain cup breaking broke the silence in the room.

"What did you say!"

Lin stared at Madam Kong, unable to believe what she heard.

Madam Kong's expression was not very good at this moment. She said carefully, "The servant we stationed in the study said that the Marquis is not in the study."

"He's not here today, and he's been leaving the study alone as soon as it gets dark for over ten days now, and he doesn't allow anyone to follow him or serve him."

Lin's eyes were bloodshot.

"It's late at night, where else could it be if not in the study?"

He must still be in the mansion. If he wanted to leave, why would he be so secretive...

Or going out at night...

Suddenly, Lin's eyes widened.

Could it be that she was seduced away by some little bitch!
