On the night of the Flowery God Festival, people were walking along the street with lanterns as usual. However, when they reached the curved bridge, they suddenly saw dozens of men with long swords emerging from the crowd, instantly surrounding a masked man in black. A group of people started to fight, causing quite a panic. When His Majesty heard that Long Yan had been enraged and ordered to investigate this matter, the corpses of the man in black, the killer, and the assassins all sank like stones into the ocean, disappearing without a trace …

Black clothes? Mask? Could it be that person? Is he hurt?

When Eastern Ling Wan heard the report from below, she couldn't help but frown. That person didn't seem to be injured. At that time, she also didn't smell any blood on his body. Maybe it was someone else! In this sort of situation, it was one thing for men to desire marriage, but there would inevitably be opportunities to seek revenge.

"Miss, don't put too much thought into it. After all, you're a stranger, and we won't meet again in the future. Why bother about this?" Glue Xue saw her frown and hurriedly tried to persuade her. He had just had a great conflict with the House of the Marquis Cheng, and now that he was met with such an unlucky matter, he didn't want to know that Dong Ling Wan's heart was at fault.

"Miss and I are fated people."

"It doesn't matter if the heavens have decreed it, fate has decreed it."

Dong Ling Wan closed her eyes and took a deep breath. The words of the person these few days were always ringing in her ears, making her uneasy. She had a feeling that things wouldn't be that simple.

19th

Early in the morning, before the shadow outside the window had completely faded away, the master and the servants in the garden had begun to get busy.

Princess Rongyuan had invited a theater crew to invite the daughters of the families to listen to the scenes. Eastern Lingwan didn't like to go to such occasions, but as Princess Rongyuan was the biological mother of A-Xun, how could she give in to her wishes?

Dong Ling Wan admitted that she didn't arrive late, but when she arrived at the palace, more than half of her family's gold had already arrived.

Dong Ling Wan was dressed in a lotus root dress, with a white bun in her hand. Her eyebrows were bright, and her teeth were white. She was gentle and generous, and although she wasn't the most beautiful girl in the world, she stood out among the thousands of gold. When Princess Rongyuan saw that Dong Lingwan had arrived, she didn't wait for her to bow before drawing the person to her side and sitting him down. She smiled affectionately as she said, "It's been a long time since we last met, but we've grown soft and spirited again!" Hua Rou. That was the word for it.

"Mufei only favors soft-heartedness!" Without waiting for Dong Ling Wan to speak, a young girl wearing a light yellow dress at the side refused to give up. There was even a hint of vinegar in her voice as she said, "This young girl is the daughter of the wangfei, Xiao Xun's younger sister — — Duke Ming Yi, Xiao Nan."

"All you know is how to be naughty all day. If you don't know how to learn from Hua, as a mufei, I won't be able to control you!" Princess Hua-Yang scolded him, but her lips curved up in a pampering smile. Princess Rongyuan only had a couple of sons and daughters, so she was naturally particularly fond of him.

Eastern Ling Wan smiled, "Princess, you should be happy about your true nature!"

"Soft is the best way to coax people. I have to always help this girl get out of the situation!" Princess Rongyuan glared at Xiao Nan. Although she spoke with disdain, she felt very happy in her heart. After all, she was her child. While she could say that she was unhappy, she could not allow others to say it.

At this time, the other daughters also came in and praised Xiao Nan. Princess Rongyuan was naturally smiling widely, while Xiao Nan avoided her mother's gaze and winked mischievously at Ling Wan. The latter also smiled, showing that this wasn't the first time such a situation had occurred.

"Nan, you can't learn from Wan'er, you have to hold it in every day. Your butt will grow to the top of the chair!"

The crowd turned their heads and saw a person leisurely walking over. This person was tall and slender, only wearing a fiery red robe, his hair tied with a black ribbon, and he held a plastered fan in his hand. His appearance was elegant and free, and it was hard to distinguish between man and woman. This person was none other than the fourth lady of the Marquis of Rites' Mansion, Song Jingyi.

The wangfei laughed, "Just listen to the voice and we'll know if the Song girl has arrived or if she's that straightforward!"

"Where did the female chivalrous expert come back from?" As they were more familiar with each other, some of them started teasing her while others teased her with a few words. When Song Jingyi saw this, she kept her fan and retorted unhappily, "What's wrong with the Heroic Assassin? Who is like all of you who are weak and delicate! "Also, I heard it just now. Why is it that when it comes to Princess Nan, you only make fun of me!"

Dong Ling Wan smiled lightly as she walked forward and stuffed a grape into her mouth. "Who's like you who wander around all day? I'll soon be unable to see you again!"

"Since it's all here, the girls will have to enjoy themselves." Princess Rongyuan smiled and led the girls to the side hall. Dong Ling Wan slowed down and moved to Song Jingyi's side, giving her her silk handkerchief. Song Jingyi took the handkerchief and spat out everything in her mouth, then complained: "You know I don't love this thing, yet you still gave it to me!"

Just now, she wanted to vomit, but she was glared back at by Dong Ling Wan. Dong Ling Wan glared at her. "You came as you pleased, and spoke too much! He hadn't seen the wangfei's face just now! The one who says it is not intentional, but the one who listens is interested. "

When Song Jingyi had spoken, Dong Ling Wan knew that something was going to happen. As expected, when she finished speaking, Wang Fei's expression turned ugly. If she didn't stop Song Jingyi from talking, she wouldn't know how to smooth things over for her!

Song Jingyi sighed, "With so many hearts, which young master would set their eyes on you, wouldn't you be tricked to death?!"

"I can't stop you from talking!"

Song Jingyi smiled and pulled her along to chase after the crowd.

Song Jingyi held her up and was about to give chase when she saw that many guards were running from behind. Song Jingyi casually asked about the situation and realized that there was a thief in the mansion!

"Find a place to stay alive!" Song Jingyi gritted her teeth and chased after him. How could Eastern Ling Wan listen to him? She hurriedly lifted her skirt and followed.

When Dong Ling Wan arrived, Song Jingyi was fighting with that person on the small suspension bridge. The small suspension bridge was originally just a decoration and couldn't be used to leave. Now that the two were on the verge of fighting, none of the guards dared to go forward.

That person dared to enter the heavily guarded mansion to steal in the daytime. He was quite skilled. Even someone like Dong Ling Wan who didn't know martial arts could tell that it would be difficult for Song Jingyi to deal with him. Song Jingyi gradually lost her strength and slowed down her movement. That person grabbed the opportunity and smacked Song Jingyi's shoulder. Song Jingyi's body became unstable and she fell towards the lake.

Seeing that something had happened to Song Jingyi, Dongling Wan cried out in alarm. At this moment, she spun around, and her arm that was tied around hers was peeled off. An afterimage flashed past as she wrapped herself around the girl's waist, pushing Song Jingyi who was about to fall into the water into her arms. Dong Ling Wan didn't care who this person was, and quickly inspected Song Jingyi. Seeing that she was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief.

"Just as I returned to my residence, I saw that my skills did not increase at all! However, Wan, you seem to be quite smart when I see you everyday, why do you seem to be so silly when things go wrong? " The man hugged his chest as he leaned against the stone pillar. In his hand, he was still holding onto her proficiency. His beautiful peach blossom eyes held a bit of ridicule, and his words were even full of teasing. He had excellent features, and his skin was a little rough on the outside, but this did not detract from his handsomeness and added a touch of wild charm to it. Of course, if this person was willing to put away that debaucherous looking appearance, then he would be even more likeable.

Dong Ling Wan was stunned for a moment, then snatched the skill from his hand, while the man shrugged.

"Inspector Xiao, don't look down on others!" Song Jingyi snorted coldly. It seemed like the only girl in the capital who dared to call Crown Prince Rong by her full name was Song Jingyi.

"Song Xiaotong, you heartless woman, I should have you soak in the pond!" As Xiao Xun spoke, he pulled Song Jingyi over and was about to push her into the water. When Dong Ling Wan saw this pair of enemies, she felt a headache and immediately pushed them apart.

"For Wan's sake, I'll forgive you."

"Who wants you to forgive me!"

"Inspector Ah!" "Ah Four!" As she spoke, Eastern Ling Wan's face hardened, and the two of them shut their mouths resentfully.

As soon as Patrol of the Xiao family returned to the manor, he naturally paid his respects to the wangfei first. When he learned that the wangfei was listening in on them, he went with the other two to the side hall. Song Jingyi was having an awkward time with Patrol of the Xiao family, so she naturally would not talk to him. However, why did Dong Ling Wan ignore him as well? Feeling somewhat defeated, Xiao Xun asked, "Why didn't you ask me why I came back?"

Dong Ling Wan raised her head. Her gaze was indifferent, but somehow, she felt goosebumps all over Xiao Xun's body: "Oh, why did you come back?"

"I've come back from outside." Xiao Xun replied matter-of-factly, not embarrassed at all.

"A manly man is nothing to be ashamed of!" Song Jingyi said in disdain.

"Talking too much!" "Such ferocity, you really shouldn't be able to get married!"

"I told you to mind your own business!"

The two of them argued, but Eastern Ling Wan didn't say anything to stop them. Ling Chen looked up, and saw that the man was a head taller than him. Ling Wan fell into deep thought. I didn't come back early, I didn't come back late, but I came back at this critical moment. Was it really just a coincidence?
