Sitting in the shadow of the rockery when I was in Tantai.
He looked coldly at the boys and girls playing in the distance.
His brother still wore that disgusting mask, and the girl he hated had a red face and the annoying flower on her temple.
A petty flower like Begonia doesn't suit her at all.
So ugly.
It's uglier than Tantaiji's fake smile.
Watching the two of them get closer and closer day by day, they only have eyes for each other when they are together, and treat him as nothing.
For the first time in his life, Tantai doubted his decision.
Did he let Tantai Zhi get too proud?
Why is it that his marriage is in trouble, his mother and concubine are trying every possible means to hinder his great career, and it is not enough for Tantai Zhi to enjoy the love and support of his father, the emperor, and his mother, and he is about to have the girl he likes?
It was sent by him.
Can't.
If there are no setbacks, let him create setbacks for Tantai Zhi!
…
Early in the morning, the Lin family became chaotic.
The noisy voices buzzed like flies, and the patter of footsteps became heavier and more numerous.
Lingchan frowned uncomfortably and put the quilt over his head irritably.
Why is it so noisy?
Guanqin's voice seemed to be separated by a layer of fog and could not be heard clearly, "Miss... Miss... wake up!"
Suddenly everything was quiet.
The noisy voices, footsteps, and collisions all disappeared.
Ling Chan breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could fall asleep again, a hot hand suddenly reached into her quilt and peeled the quilt off her head with an irresistible force.
The sky is dazzling.
Ling Chan squinted her eyes in a daze, but she still didn't want to get up, and she tried her best to shrink her head into the shadow next to her.
Her face touched the hot hand again.
The movement was very light, like brushing the down on the tip of the knife, and it landed gently on her cheek.
The skin here is soft and smooth, and there is no trace of the scar left by a long arrow.
...it's a little itchy.
Lingchan wrinkled her nose, and a small animal-like snort came out of her throat.
The hand quickly retracted as if it was frightened.
The brief silence passed quickly, and Lingchan heard an annoying voice coming from the window again, "...Go and wake up that lazy idiot! Which lady sleeps until midnight like her? It would be embarrassing for my aunt if she told her... …”
Luo Libasuo yelled a lot of words with great momentum, but he couldn't hide his guilty conscience.
Ling Chanli ignored him and continued to sleep.
When she got up from sleep, she saw Guan Qin sitting beside her bed, and the clothes she wanted to wear were neatly arranged.
Guan Qin helped Ling Chan get dressed and wash up, and whispered: "Prince An is here and wants to see you by name, but Miss, you can't call me no matter how you call me. He keeps getting angry at the old lady."
Guan Qin had never stayed by her bedside before. When she got up, Ling Chan realized: "You were ordered by His Highness Prince An to wake me up."
"Yes, but Miss slept so soundly," Guanqin said, "I couldn't bear to wake Miss up."
"Well done," Lingchan immediately praised, "He doesn't deserve me to get up early for him."
"Miss..." Guanqin shrank and said, "His Royal Highness Prince An broke into your room when he first arrived. I didn't stop him and let him in..."
Lingchan immediately thought of the eerie silence when she was half asleep and the fingertips that were about to leave. She raised her eyebrows and reassured the little maid, "It doesn't matter, he didn't do anything to me."
That means sneaking up on her face.
By the time Lingchan dressed up and went to the main hall where Mrs. Lin was entertaining guests, Tantai Shi had already been picking out thorns here for half an hour.
Mrs. Lin greeted him, "Your Highness's arrival will make this place shine."
Tantai Shi argued: "Then why are there still people lying on the bed sleeping? Is this the upbringing of the Lin family?"
"..." Mrs. Lin forced a smile and kept up her efforts, "Spring is here and the flowers in the garden are blooming very well. Why don't you let your cousin take you for a walk?"
When he was in Tantai, he argued: "What kind of garden are you strolling in? If you have some free time, why not call that lazy girl who is lying in bed?"
Under the eyes of her mother-in-law, Mrs. Lin decided to end the topic, "Our cousin is always well-behaved and polite. Today this is an accident. It is definitely not the Lin family's intention to be negligent."
Tantai Shi argued: "That means you usually get up early, but this is the day I stay in bed. Are you saying you're not neglecting me?"
Mrs. Lin was also defeated. She gave her daughter crazy looks. Miss Lin didn’t want to touch the bad luck of her ancestors!
She said wittily: "My sister should be up already, I'll go see her again!"
Tantai Shi raised his chin: "No need, people are here."
He was talking to Miss Lin, but his beautiful peach blossom eyes were staring straight at Lingchan, his gaze blazing, like a large beast staring at the little rabbit.
Lingchan saluted him, showing a cute and sweet smile, "Greetings to His Royal Highness, Prince An."
Tantai Shi sneered, "If you sleep a little longer, you can say good night to me."
Lingchan frowned and said, "I'm not usually like this... It's just that I had an accident today. A small insect seemed to bite me on the face while I was sleeping. It made me dizzy and couldn't wake up."
Tantai was stunned and immediately frowned, "How can there be such bugs? It's summer now, and there are indeed a lot of mosquitoes. Your tent is not good. There is a piece of smoke yarn at the concubine's place, which is the most ventilated and breathable tent. , and it can also prevent insects. I will go there another day..."
He fell silent suddenly.
Lingchan blinked her big eyes and pretended to be confused: "How did your highness know that my tent is not good? But that bug is really strange, it is very hot, but it is very close to human body temperature."
"..."
Dare you say he is a bug!
If he couldn't hear it again in Tantai, he would be a fool!
He had a gloomy look on his face and his lips were drawn straight, "How come that bug didn't bite you to death?"
Lingchan looked innocent.
Tantai Shi flicked his sleeves and left directly!
Everyone in the Lin family breathed a sigh of relief. Miss Lin was afraid of making Chan uncomfortable, so she comforted her, "His Highness is not targeting you specifically. He has had this bad temper since he was a child. Don't take it to heart."
Ling Chan was surprised: "Has he always been like this?"
Miss Lin nodded and couldn't help but sigh, "Auntie is such a good person, but Your Highness is just... But he has a noble status, and he doesn't mind that our family, as his maternal family, is not as good as other princes' maternal family. He is a relative of our family in his heart, but he is just bad-mouthed... He just tolerated it and let it go."
The words were not so much persuading Lingchan, but more like persuading myself.
Ling Chan comforted her so thoughtfully that Ms. Lin hugged her and rubbed her several times, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, why are you so nice!"
She whispered to Lingchan: "Concubine Shu wants His Highness to marry Prince An at a low price. My mother wants me to go...but I'm not willing. I'm so scared. Being a cousin is different from being a wife. Your Highness is so proud. People will definitely not accept me..."
Ling Chan was startled, and she asked the system plot for the first time: [In the original plot line, who was the wife that Concubine Shu chose for Prince An? 】
【Lin Jingshu. 】
[What is her ending? 】
[...She failed to elope and died of illness. 】
Lin Jingshu leaned against Lingchan and said seriously: "I know you can't refuse your Majesty. Your Highness seems to like you a little now, but you have to be careful... Your Highness hates being forced. He is not a person who will be soft just because he likes you... …”
She told Lingchan everything she had learned from her years with Tantai, her voice lively and charming, her skin warm, and her eyes full of innocent trust and happiness.
This is a living girl. She can move, laugh, and talk. She is no one's tool, let alone anyone's sword. Such a desolate ending is not suitable for her.
Lingchan leaned on her sister's arm and smiled sweetly, "Thank you, sister. I know that sister is good to me. I will also be good to sister!"
