The gambling god's wife in the Duke's Mansion is getting divorced again

Sang Wan swayed slightly and sat down on the ground.

The moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and the yard was pitch black.

After a while, she whispered in the darkness: "Shi Luochuan is just a scholar, let him go."

"Why, you don't have any real feelings for Pei Jinzhi?" Madam Cheng laughed sarcastically, and every word she said cut into her heart like a knife. "It's pitiful. I think he cares about you very much."

Sang Wan calmed down and said, "He and I originally had a deal. We killed my father, and the hatred is irreconcilable. How could we have any feelings for each other? Tomorrow I will invite Pei Jinzhi to a pleasure boat to watch the moon. Your men will lie in ambush on the river. Once we get the imperial edict, you and I will join forces to kill him. How do you think?"

"Okay, Sang Wan. After all, we are childhood sweethearts and have a deep friendship. I will trust you again this time! Tomorrow the young prince will come to supervise the battle in person. If we fail again, both you and I will die. Do you understand?" Madam Cheng said coldly.

"I understand. Now my wealth and prosperity for the rest of my life depends on the young prince." Sang Wan lowered his head obediently.

Madam Cheng smiled gently, walked over, pinched Sang Wan's mouth, and stuffed a pill into her mouth. "This is the Heartbreak Pill. You've seen its power. If you don't have an antidote within seven days, your intestines will rupture and you'll die. Work hard, and I'll give you the antidote after you succeed."

She pulled out a white porcelain bottle from her sleeve. "This is the cartilage powder I've developed. Give it to Pei Jinzhi, and he'll be as soft as a shrimp, ready to be killed or sliced. The young prince doesn't want him to die so easily. When the time comes, if you want to avenge Sang Jun, you'll have plenty of ways to torture him."

"Yes." Sang Wan took the porcelain bottle without hesitation: "I will make him suffer a fate worse than death."

"Very good! These are the good children of our Tianxuan Sect!" Madam Cheng patted her shoulder:

"When all this is over, King Nan'an will not only reward you with gold, silver, and jewelry, but will also set you free. If you want to live with Shi Luochuan, you will have the opportunity."

"Thank you, my lady, for your help." Sang Wan lowered his head.

It's time for all this to end.

The sky at the hour of Mao is slightly bright.

The pier woke up from its silence, and it was bustling with people coming and going.

Shi Luochuan stood at the dock, his schoolbag on his back, gazing blankly into the distance. The boatman had already begun to reel in the mooring ropes: "Scholar, are you still going? The boat is about to sail!"

"Boatman, wait a moment, I'll be there soon." Shi Luochuan was visibly anxious.

In the distance, a woman's figure ran towards them. Shi Luochuan waved excitedly: "Awan, here!"

Only when the person came running to him, panting, did he see clearly that it was Skylark.

"Luochuan...Mr. Luochuan, thank goodness I made it in time."

Shi Luochuan was confused: "Where's Ah Wan?"

"Grandma... Oh, Miss Sang asked me to bring you a message. She has left."

Skylark took a deep breath and handed over the letter.

Shi Luochuan quickly opened the letter and was somewhat surprised by the handwriting, which was both gentle and vigorous. "When did Ah Wan learn to write?"

"It was the prince who taught me, and Grandma practiced very diligently." Yu Que bowed deeply and decided to address her as Grandma.

"Mr. Shi, Grandma said that the journey is long and steep, so please take care of yourself. She has important matters to attend to and cannot go with you. She only wishes you success in the imperial examinations and a bright future. If you win, she will come to congratulate you in person."

Shi Luochuan held the letter in his hand, feeling a little flustered: "But she clearly agreed to go with me yesterday."

The boatman urged loudly, and Yun Que pushed him onto the boat:

"Don't worry. Mr. Luochuan, if you concentrate on taking the exam, that will be the greatest comfort to Grandma."

"Hey, don't push me, I want to wait for Wan."

"Grandma left early. You won't be able to wait until dark. Go quickly."

Yunque gave a strong push, and Shi Luochuan was pushed onto the boat staggeringly. The boatman pushed the pole, and the boat left the shore and went farther and farther away.

Sang Wan stood in a pavilion on the slope not far away, watching the boat gradually turn into a small black dot.

Baili Xi, who was standing beside him, glanced at him and smiled cynically: "Are you sad?"

Sang Wan sniffed and forced herself to hold back her tears: "Go away."

"What good is this weak scholar?" He flexed his arms, showing off his muscles. "Ah Wan, why don't you consider following me?"

"If you've eaten too much salt, drink some water and plug your stinky mouth. If that doesn't work, I'll help you silence it with poison!"

Sang Wan stomped her feet and left.

"Hey, Pepper, I'm your lifeline, and you treat me like this?"

"Hey, wait for me, don't walk so fast."

"You are using the Lingbo Weibu!"

"Hey……"

Baili Xi picked up his feet and hurried to catch up with her.

Sang Wan returned to Zhaoyun Courtyard and straightened her messy hair guiltily.

The hair was still wet with morning dew.

Coincidentally, Pei Jinzhi opened the dormitory door, and the two looked at each other, and he was obviously stunned.

"Did something fall?"

Sang Wan shook her head, looking around with her starry eyes flashing as she smiled; the lavender dress made her look like a fairy blooming in the morning dew, delicate and graceful, making people unable to take their eyes off her.

"Master, I heard there will be a spectacle of a moon eclipsing tonight. I'd like to go to a pleasure boat with you to admire the moon. Just you and me, is that okay?"

Pei Jinzhi just stared at her blankly, frowning tightly: "That's a good suggestion that's hard to refuse."

"Okay. If you like Jiutanchun, I have asked Yuque to prepare it." Sang Wan smiled coquettishly but not coquettishly.

Pei Jinzhi's eyes were deep, with endless tenderness flowing through them. He tried his best to control his expression and not let it fall. "It's rare to see you so positive."

"Your Highness has saved me from danger so many times, and I owe you my gratitude. I'm leaving soon, and since you despise such vulgar things as gold and silver, why don't I accompany you to admire the moon and drink together, and that will be a token of our friendship."

"Is it for love or righteousness?" Pei Jinzhi took a step closer to her. His tall figure carried a strong sense of oppression. Sang Wan hurriedly avoided his gaze. Before that hot breath approached, she stepped back and slipped away.

"Among people in the martial arts world, loyalty and righteousness are the most important thing, so naturally everyone has them."

It can’t be explained, it can’t be understood, and it’s hard to let go.

"If it's for love, I would be disrespectful to refuse; if it's for righteousness... Miss Sang, there's no need to delay your future, just stay for me." Pei Jinzhi suddenly grabbed her wrist and pressed forward.

Sang Wan panicked, her misty eyes fixed on him. She licked her lips with difficulty and whispered, "How can there be any love between you and me?"

"Have you forgotten everything about our one-night stand?"

"I forgot." She met Pei Jinzhi's eyes with a sharp look: "Didn't you forget too?"

"I've always been heartless. How about you?" Pei Jinzhi's eyes were deep. "You said there's only one true heart, and it can't be divided. Is the person in front of me right now a heart-loving person, or a heartless person?"

His large hand gripped her tightly, causing her wrist to ache. Sang Wan realized that her past words had left a mark on his heart. She had said that day that Shi Luochuan treated her with such sincerity that she naturally had to return his heart. Pei Jinzhi had once asked him, if there was another person in the world who treated you so well, would you also share your heart with someone else?

"There is only one true heart, how can it be divided? I am standing here, do you think I am sincere or not?"

"Since you don't have any intention, why do you have to insist on whether I have any intention or not?" She looked provocatively.

Pei Jinzhi's eyes reddened slightly, he let go of her wrist and laughed out loud.

Sang Wan rubbed her red wrist and wanted to run away in panic.

"Come back." Pei Jinzhi called her: "Besides admiring the moon, what else do you want to do?"

Sang Wan was stunned. She had never thought about it before: "What else do ordinary people do when they appreciate the moon?"

Pei Jinzhi looked at her and said, "I'll be with you, burning incense, hanging paintings, drinking tea, arranging flowers, worshiping the moon, lighting lanterns, whatever you want to do."

"Bring the Chengying Sword. If the prince is drunk, how about a sword dance?"

Sang Wan's eyes flickered, and she bit her lower lip unconsciously, making the color of her lip balm even brighter.

"I'm happy to do so." Pei Jinzhi smiled and nodded slightly.

"Then..." Sang Wan hesitated: "See you tonight."

Pei Jinzhi reached out and gently touched her head: "See you tonight."

Sang Wan felt a little uncomfortable: "The way you touched my head was like touching the wind."

"You are not as good as it." Pei Jinzhi sneered, and turned away in a bitter moment.

Sang Wan was disheveled in the wind: "Hey? Pei Jinzhi, you scolded me!"

Jifeng is a wolf, so she is not as good as Jifeng?

What? Humans are worse than wolves?!

Sang Wan muttered a few words and went back to the house to tinker with something.

Yunque cautiously slipped into the yard and whispered, "Grandma, Mr. Luochuan has already boarded the boat. Uh..."

"What's wrong? Just say what you want to say, Skylark." Sang Wan couldn't stand hesitating.

"I think I saw Miss Pu on the boat as well."
