When Lian Nanchun heard that Lian Xuanzhong said that she had tampered with the wine she and Ling Yun drank last night, her beauty turned pale and she couldn't help complaining: "Auntie, you killed me!"
Lian Xuanzhong, however, said disapprovingly: "Isn't this just to make things easier for you? Now God knows, the earth knows, you know, I know this matter. Never let that kid Ling Yun know about it again!"
Lian Nanchun sneered and said: "Auntie, stop wishful thinking. Do you think Ling Yun is a fool? Didn't you hear that there was something behind the words and something behind the lines in what he just said to you?"
Lian Xuanzhong was startled for a moment, and couldn't help but think of what Ling Yun said before leaving here:
"Of course Ling Yun knows that what he did last night was out of proportion, but please don't exaggerate! It's my responsibility and I won't shirk it, but it's not my fault and I won't admit it either - my aunt is a sensible person and feels natural You know, why do you have to force me to tell everything and make everyone uncomfortable?"
At that time, she was still a little confused after hearing this; when Jing Lian Nanchun reminded her, she suddenly realized and murmured: "Oh! I didn't expect this kid to be so smart and figure out the truth of the matter so quickly..."
Lian Nanchun sneered and said: "Do you think Ling Yunbai has been an official in the Ministry of Justice for so many years? What kind of things has he not seen? What kind of storms has he not experienced? With your tricks, you can still Can you hide it from his eyes?"
Lian Xuanzhong felt a look of embarrassment on his face and was speechless for a moment.
Lian Nanchun lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, and then said: "To be honest, if Ling Yun is really the kind of mediocre person who doesn't know east, west, north, south, and has no brains, will your niece still think so highly of him? ?”
Lian Xuanzhong said helplessly: "Then what are you going to do now?"
Lian Nanchun turned his face and looked sadly at the desolate scenery outside the window. He said silently: "As I said again, I will not hold him back because of this. He can leave at any time and go anywhere he wants."
Lian Xuanzhong couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and sighed softly: "Chun'er, it's in vain that my aunt has put so much thought into you. I didn't expect that the result would be like this in the end..."
Lian Nanchun's face was filled with sadness, "Emotional matters cannot be forced, just let everything happen!"
At this time, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Ling Yun appeared at the door.
Lian Nanchun and Lian Xuanzhong were stunned for a moment. Just now, the aunt and nephew were just talking, so engrossed in their bodies and minds that they didn't even know that Ling Yun had come back, let alone how long he had been standing outside the door.
The three people looked at each other silently, the air seemed to be stagnant for a moment, and the atmosphere seemed a bit awkward.
After a long time, Lian Xuanzhong finally regained his composure and asked sarcastically: "Why are you back so soon?"
Ling Yun snorted and said nothing.
Lian Xuanzhong suddenly remembered that he had asked Monk Pingming to keep an eye on Ling Yun, but now Ling Yun came back alone...
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but transfer her dissatisfaction and resentment to Monk Pingming, and couldn't help but said: "This dead monk, I just let him..." As soon as the words came out, she knew she had made a mistake and hurriedly paused.
Ling Yun sneered and said, "Why didn't my aunt say anything? Then let Ling Yun speak for her! My aunt had just asked Master Pingming to follow and monitor me, so how could she not keep an eye on me and instead let me come back first?"
"You..." Lian Xuanzhong was speechless for a moment.
Lian Nanchun glanced at him and said expressionlessly: "So, you heard the conversation between me and my aunt just now?"
Ling Yun nodded.
"Then what are your plans?"
The look in Ling Yun's eyes suddenly became firm and persistent, and he said in a deep voice: "It's still the same sentence: it's my responsibility and I won't shirk it!"
"How to say?"
Ling Yun stared at her for a long time with his starry eyes, his eyes full of tenderness, "Chun'er, since you and I are already husband and wife, we should shoulder this title. You, me, aunt, Master Pingming, and everyone in the Hermitage Villa are all Recognized title.”
Lian Nanchun's eyes were filled with mist, and he said in a trembling voice, "You mean..."
Ling Yun said word by word: "I want to marry you and be my only love in this life!"
Lian Nanchun couldn't help but stayed for a moment and looked at him blankly. Lian Xuanzhong asked Ling Yun what he meant.
Ling Yun told them that he wanted Lian Nanchun to be his wife, and held a grand ceremony with monk Lian Xuanzhong and Ping Ming as witnesses. The two went to the church to get married; then Ling Yun returned to the capital.
Lian Xuanzhong sneered: "You want to be Chen Shimei!"
Ling Yun was not the one who suffered the loss, and immediately retorted: "If I were really that kind of person, why would I come back after restraining Senior Ping Ming?"
Lian Xuanzhong was choked by him and speechless for a moment.
"Choose a city to grow old, meet someone who will grow old..." Ling Yun's expression became solemn at this time; he turned his affectionate eyes to Lian Nanchun, his moist eyes bloomed with warm light, and said softly: "Chun'er , although I cannot give you a worldly status, but I can make the decision and entrust my whole being to you. Ling Yun swore to God that he would love Lian Nanchun wholeheartedly for the rest of his life and would never change his mind; and he would never change his mind in this life. If I marry another woman and violate my oath, I will die by the sword!..."
Lian Nanchun seemed to be choked by something in his throat, and he couldn't say what he wanted to say. His mind was racing, and his vision became blurry before he realized it.
Ling Yun raised his hand and took off his fish-green sword, handed it to Lian Nanchun and said: "This sword is a rare treasure. It was given by my mentor when I came down from the mountain. It has been worn by my side for so many years, and I also have a deep appreciation for it." It is regarded as life. As the saying goes, 'the sword is with the person, but the sword dies and the person dies.' In order to express my feelings, I give it to you as a token of love."
Lian Nanchun took the sword in his hand and held it with both hands as if holding a newborn baby.
The two of them stared at each other affectionately, and their eyes were like the deepest lake, full of affection and love, as if they were about to overflow...
If Monk Pingming hadn't stepped in at an inappropriate time and interrupted this tender relationship, then this affectionate look at each other might have continued...
But Monk Pingming rushed back in a hurry, and when he saw Ling Yun, he said: "You brat, you have brought great harm to my old man. If you don't take revenge, I will not be a human being!"
Ling Yun calmed down at this time and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Senior, why did you come back so soon? Your acupuncture points will not be released until six hours later?"
Ping Ming became even more angry when he heard this, "You brat, do you really want me to suffer for six hours?" He chased Ling Yun and beat him.
Ling Yun dodged while begging for mercy: "Senior, you don't care about the faults of small people. The prime minister's belly can support a boat; you have a lot of money, please spare me!"
Monk Pingming raised his eyebrows and said, "You brat, don't say anything nice. Just say whether you accept the beating or the punishment, right?"
Ling Yun said: "How about admitting the fight?"
Monk Pingming said: "If you accept the beating, I will give you thirty sticks with my old man's Zen staff!"
Ling Yun glanced at the heavy purple jade staff, weighing sixty kilograms, and felt his scalp trembling with fear, "What, thirty staffs? You are such a tough guy, let alone thirty staffs, I only have three staffs." I’m afraid I won’t be able to get up! I’d better accept the punishment!”
Monk Pingming said: "To accept the punishment, I will also tap your acupuncture points and let you suffer the pain outside for six hours - but in order to prevent you from escaping early, I have to tie you up first."
"Ah?... No way?" Ling Yun looked outside. Today is a cloudy and snowy day, with snowflakes falling and falling in season.
Ling Yun couldn't help but frown, and sighed: "It would be better for a man to be killed without humiliation than to suffer this sporadic crime..."
Monk Pingming said, "Why don't I give you thirty sticks?"
Ling Yun said: "It's better to ask Miss Lian to intercede for me."
Lian Xuanzhong couldn't help but laugh.
Ling Yun continued to say seriously: "Chun'er, for the sake of the love between husband and wife, please say goodbye to me!"
Lian Nanchun blushed, rolled his eyes at him and said, "Nonsense, who is married to you?"
Ling Yun said with a playful smile: "What's wrong with this? You forgot last night..." He whispered a few words in Lian Nanchun's ear.
Lian Nanchun blushed and said angrily: "Okay, you are so dishonest..." He raised his hand and hit him.
Ling Yun dodged with a smile. The two of them were laughing and joking.
When Lian Xuanzhong and Monk Pingming saw the two of them flirting, it would be unwise to continue watching, so they had no choice but to retreat angrily.
Monk Pingming couldn't help but sigh: "Alas! Today's young people are too much!"
Lian Xuanzhong also let out a sigh and said nothing.
Ping Ming suddenly came back to his senses, "Oh no, I fell into that brat's trick again! No, I can't let this brat go easily!" He turned around and started to walk back.
Lian Xuanzhong grabbed him and said: "Forget it, great monk, don't ask for trouble, let's go!"...
Since ancient times, sentimental feelings have hurt parting, and even more so, they can’t bear to be left out in the Qingqiu Festival.
Ling Yun and Lian Nan Chun reluctantly said goodbye.
Lian Nanchun handed an exquisite and clear jade pendant to Ling Yun's hand and said softly: "This jade pendant was a gift from my mother to my father when my parents got engaged. Later, my mother gave this jade pendant to me. She told I said: I can only give it to the one I love. I give it to you now. When you see it, it will be like seeing me."
Ling Yun took it and saw a line of seal characters engraved on the crystal-clear front: Know oneself and know one's heart; on the back, there was a line of small regular script: "If love lasts for a long time, how can it last day and night?"
A wave of heat surged in Ling Yun's heart. He looked up and saw Lian Nanchun's affectionate and persistent eyes again.
Ling Yun said meaningfully: "When I see it, it's like seeing you. When the person wears it, he will die, but when he wears it, he will die. Chun'er, I will cherish it all my life."
"There is also this white dove for you." After saying that, Lian Nanchun handed a beautiful and quiet dove into his hand, "If you have any questions, please use it to contact me."
Ling Yun took the dove, which was like a ball of snow, with both hands, looked at it lovingly, and nodded silently.
Autumn rain is like silk, tenderness is like water.
Ling Yun left; Lian Nanchun stood in the slanting wind and drizzle, staring at the direction of Ling Yun's retreat for a long time, standing like a statue.
