Chapter 115: Saving the Crazy Mistress in Sheep's Clothing
Ling Han said such ambiguous words calmly.
And as Ling Han spoke, he moved a little closer.
His tone was low and ambiguous, "Your Highness, do you know that every time I swung my sword just now, I was imagining fighting for you?"
Wen Yang widened her eyes in shock and turned to look at Ling Han, only to find that Ling Han was also looking at her with burning eyes.
She was frightened by the atmosphere and subconsciously took two steps back, but she didn't expect to step on a small stone behind her, her foot slipped, and she fell backwards.
When she was about to fall, a pair of long arms held her waist and held her firmly in his arms.
Wen Yang looked at the white chest muscles and the two red spots in front of her, as well as the strong smell of male hormones around her... and the deep and burning eyes looking at her, and subconsciously wanted to stand up straight and keep some distance.
But the hand around her waist seemed to be clamping her waist tightly, making her half-lying in the air and unable to move.
She turned her head to the other side, closed her eyes tightly, and said in a low and rapid voice: "Let me get up!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Han chuckled and slowly helped Wen Yang stand up straight.
Wen Yang lowered her head and straightened her messed up skirt, then said calmly, "I'm leaving first!"
This time, Ling Han did not try to persuade him to stay. He looked at Wen Yang's back, who seemed to be fleeing in panic, and curled the corners of his mouth slightly.
For the next period of time, Wen Yang was so scared that he didn't dare to go to the backyard.
Even if Ling Han went to the door of the bedroom to look for her, she would use the excuse of entering the palace to get away.
Even Qiu Ju found it a bit strange. She asked in confusion, "Your Highness, didn't you like Young Master Ling Han before? Why do I feel like you're avoiding him lately?"
Wen Yang was stunned when he heard Qiuju's words and asked, "Am I so obvious..."
Qiu Ju nodded: "Yes, it's quite obvious. Recently, you have been going to the palace almost every day to avoid Master Ling Han."
Wen Yang: “…”
Then Qiu Ju said, "Your Highness, if you are tired of Master Ling Han, I will help you dismiss him as well."
"No!" Wen Yang stopped him loudly.
"But..." Qiuju wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Wen Yang: "Don't worry about this matter, I have my own thoughts!"
Hearing this, Qiuju had no choice but to shut up obediently.
The next morning, Wen Yang had just left the bedroom when she saw Ling Han standing at the door of her bedroom again.
Thinking about what Qiuju said yesterday, she seemed to be avoiding Ling Han...even her maid noticed it, so Ling Han must have noticed it too.
So Wen Yang took the initiative to greet Ling Han.
"Your Highness, are you going to the palace again today?" Ling Han asked before Wen Yang could continue.
"Ah...yes..." Wen Yang replied somewhat embarrassedly.
But thinking of Qiuju's words yesterday, she hurriedly explained, "I'm not trying to avoid you today. I really have something to do today!"
After hearing this, Ling Han revealed a somewhat dejected smile, "It seems that Your Highness has indeed been avoiding me for the past few days."
"I..." Wen Yang then realized that she had spoken out what was in her heart in a moment of anxiety... She was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
However, Ling Han did not say anything more. Instead, he bowed and said to Wen Yang, "A few days ago, it was Ling Han who overstepped his bounds. It is only natural for Your Highness to avoid me. Ling Han promises Your Highness that he will not do such unauthorized and unruly things in the future."
Wen Yang was already feeling embarrassed, and now hearing Ling Han's sincere apology, the embarrassment in his heart could not help but become even stronger.
She lowered her eyes and replied softly, "Let's just forget about this and don't mention it again."
When Ling Han heard Wen Yang's words, a smile appeared on his lips, "Thank you, Your Highness, for not holding it against Ling Han."
Wen Yang waved his hand and prepared to pass Ling Han and leave the house to take a carriage to the palace.
However, when she passed by Ling Han, she heard Ling Han say in a very low voice: "I hope Your Highness will not hide from me anymore, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to protect Your Highness in time..."
After Wen Yang heard this, his body froze and his lips moved. He wanted to say something, but in the end he closed his mouth, just said "hmm" lightly, and left the house.
After riding in a carriage to the palace gate, Wen Yang headed straight for Fengxi Palace.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the main hall of Fengxi Palace, Wen Yang heard the sound of laughter coming from inside.
Wen Yang walked lightly through the line of palace maids who were paying their respects and entered the inner room of the bedroom. Only then did she discover that there was a familiar man standing in the hall. It was her second brother Wen Fengye who had returned.
As soon as Wen Yang stepped into the hall, she found Wen Fengye looking at her with a smile. It was the familiar face in her memory.
When the Empress of the Mausoleum saw Wen Yang coming, she also greeted him with a smile, "Ayang, come here quickly. Your second brother has brought you a gift."
"Royal brother, when did you come back?" Wen Yang called out in surprise, and quickly stepped forward to show Wen Fengye his signature smile.
Wen Fengye also smiled back and said, "I got back last night. I heard that you've been coming to the palace to see Mother every morning lately, so I came early today to pay my respects to Mother and also wanted to see you."
Then Wen Fengye took out a wooden box from his arms and handed it to Wen Yang, saying, "This is a gift I brought back specially for you from the South China Sea."
Wen Yang took the wooden box doubtfully, and after opening it gently, he found a string of plump and round pearl necklaces inside, each of which exuded a soft and lustrous luster.
"It's so beautiful, thank you, my royal brother!" Wen Yang accepted the gift with a smile.
Wen Fengye smiled faintly, "As long as you like it." Then he changed the subject and asked, "How have you been lately? I heard from my mother that you dismissed all the concubines in the mansion?"
Wen Yang nodded after hearing this and said, "Yes, they were dismissed."
Hearing this, Wen Fengye raised the corner of his lips and asked, "Are you planning to recruit a prince consort?"
When Wen Yang heard what Wen Fengye said, he immediately understood what he wanted to say.
She snorted in her heart. It was not enough that Wen Fengye had said it in front of Emperor Ling before. Now he was mentioning it again in front of her. How anxious was he to get Song Yizi into her princess mansion?
Although Wen Yang knew it well, she didn't show it on her face. Instead, she pretended to be embarrassed and sighed, "Alas, even if I dismissed my concubines, where in the capital of Ling Kingdom can I find someone who truly loves me?"
As expected, when Wen Fengye heard Wen Yang's words, he immediately frowned and said seriously: "Ayang, don't underestimate yourself. Your status is worthy of the best man in the court!"
Hearing this, Wen Yang almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
If she hadn't known that Wen Fengye would be so cold and ruthless to the original owner in the end, she would almost believe that Wen Fengye was a royal brother who truly cared about her.
"Really? Is there really such a person?" Wen Yang asked in a very unconfident tone.
The Empress of the Mausoleum, who was standing by, seemed dissatisfied with Wen Yang's timid appearance when she heard him speak like this. She frowned and said, "Ayang, how could you have such thoughts? Since you are the most honored legitimate princess of this dynasty, whoever you fall in love with will be blessed! If there is someone you like, just ask your father to arrange a marriage for you. Why do you care what those men think?!"
Hearing the Queen's domineering words, Wen Yang felt a little sad. Indeed, she was the legitimate daughter of the Queen of this dynasty and the most noble princess.
It’s a pity that the original owner was blind and was deceived by that bastard Song Yizi.
Thinking of this, Wen Yang sighed and said, "Mother, I understand what you said, but...I just want to find someone who truly loves me."
Wen Fengye, who was standing by, heard this and immediately spoke up: "Ayang, to be honest, General Song Yizhi, the legitimate son of General Song, once told me privately that he was interested in you..."
After hearing this, Wen Yang curled up the corners of his lips with a forced smile, and said with a hint of doubt: "Huh? But I saw him and Princess Yongming chatting and laughing in and out of the cosmetics shop a few days ago..."
Wen Fengye: “…”
This sentence directly blocked all the good words that Wen Fengye was going to say to praise Song Yizhi back into his stomach...
