After Dong Lingjiu left, the room was quiet for a long time. Xia Taner sat at the table without saying a word, staring blankly at the debris on the floor.
Just at this time, Feng Muchi happily brought a pot of osmanthus cake and prepared to enjoy it with Xia Tan'er, but when he reached the door, he was stopped by Hong Xiu and the secret guard.
"What are you stopping me for?"
Seeing the panic on these people's faces, Feng Muchi noticed something was wrong and immediately asked coldly.
"Did something happen to Tan'er? Tell me quickly?"
"this……"
Several secret guards looked at each other and did not dare to speak directly. Fortunately, Hong Xiu was a sensible person and told Feng Muchi all the causes and consequences, which made Feng Muchi extremely angry.
"What on earth is Dong Lingjiu doing to help Dong Lingyan bully Tan'er like this? It's a shame that I still want to help him. Hongxiu will give this plate of osmanthus cake to Tan'er. I'll go find him to reason."
"Hey, Young Master Feng!"
Feng Muchi moved very quickly and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Hongxiu sighed and looked down at the plate of osmanthus cake in her hand. How dare she send the osmanthus cake to Xia Tan'er at this time? Feng Muchi was too disrespectful. So considerate.
Nine Princes' Mansion.
Shaoqing stood guard outside the study and bowed hurriedly when Dong Lingjiu came back.
"master."
Dong Lingjiu ignored him, pulled the sword from Shaoqing's waist and turned over to the martial arts field. He stabbed forward with his hand and the sword screamed, scaring Shaoqing so much that he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Master, what's wrong? I haven't seen him so angry for a long time."
The last time I had a quarrel with Xia Tan'er, what was the reason for this time?
But as a subordinate, how could he meddle in his master's business? Shaoqing silently waited outside the martial arts training ground, waiting for Dong Lingjiu to vent his anger.
At this moment, a figure came with the wind, and Shaoqing's brows hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.
"stop!"
"Get out of my way, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."
When Shaoqing saw who was coming, he was extremely surprised.
"Young Master Feng? Why is it you? Are you here to find your master?"
"That's right."
Shaoqing felt very strange. Why did Feng Muchi come to the Nine Princes' Mansion? Could it be because of Xia Tan'er?
Shaoqing thought about it and this was the only possibility that could bring these two men together.
But as Dong Lingjiu's subordinate, he must not let Feng Muchi break in at this time.
"Young Master Feng, please wait outside while your subordinates go in and report. The master is practicing his sword and if anyone disturbs him, he may go crazy."
"Go quickly!"
If Dong Ling Jiu went crazy and got internal injuries, Xia Tan'er would be the one who would be sad. Feng Muchi couldn't bear to see Xia Tan'er cry, let alone be blamed by Xia Tan'er because of Dong Ling Jiu.
"Please wait a moment, Master Feng."
Shaoqing bowed and turned around to walk to the martial arts training ground. He had just walked a few steps when he saw Dong Lingjiu walking out of the place sweating profusely with a sword in hand. He threw the sword at Shaoqing and put his hands behind his back. Looking at Feng Muchi coldly from behind.
"What are you doing here? Tan'er asked you to come?"
"Don Lingjiu, you know that Tan'er is pregnant and you still want to make her angry. What kind of man are you?"
"Whether or not I am a man is none of your business."
'Humph, that's right. Tan'er doesn't lack a man like you. You are indeed not important! "
Feng Mu's eloquence was second only to Xia Tan'er, and every word he spoke pierced Dong Lingjiu's heart.
Dong Lingjiu's heart ached, and when he looked at Feng Muchi, his face became more and more grim.
"What did you say?"
"Aren't I telling the truth? What kind of man is a man who can't even protect his own woman? Hehe, he still allows his niece to abuse Tan'er. If Tan'er doesn't beat you, it's because she is kind. You don't know what's good for you. , deserve to be abandoned by Tan'er!"
"What insult? What did Dongling curse? Why didn't this king know about it?"
Dong Lingjiu realized at this moment that he and Xia Tan'er were angry at different points.
Even Feng Muchi was a little confused and asked suspiciously: "Didn't Song Lingcheng tell you? Dong Lingyan was really powerful today, calling Tan'er a slut in front of outsiders, and adding all sorts of fuel and jealousy. If not for Xue Chen and Yu Wen Yue being more sensible. If I believed Dong Lingyan's words, Tan'er would definitely die of injustice today."
"No, he never told me this."
Dong Lingjiu shook his head.
As soon as Song Lingcheng returned to the Ninth Prince's Mansion, he kept talking in his ears about how Xue Chen was doing, how Xia Tan'er was doing, and how they were doing together. He especially emphasized that Xia Tan'er might be fascinated by Xue Chen like other women. It will be too late if Hongxing cheats.
Because of this, Dong Lingjiu hurried to the Lu family to imitate the concubines in the harem and let Xia Tan'er play coquettishly to please her in front of her. Little did he know that Xia Tan'er would be angry with him because of Dong Lingyan.
It's all Song Lingcheng's fault. He didn't talk about important things and talked about a lot of unnecessary things, which led to this misunderstanding.
Empress Dongling Jiu realized later that it was no wonder Xia Tan'er was so angry. She must have thought that he was acting coquettishly towards her because he was specifically defending Dongling Yan.
Thinking of this, Dong Lingjiu frowned.
"How is Tan'er doing now?"
"What can I do? It must be sad to stay alone in the room without saying a word. Dong Lingjiu, you'd better think about how to coax Tan'er well and punish Dong Lingyan severely, otherwise I will definitely take him with me All the assassins in Fengying Tower will turn Dongling upside down, so you can take care of yourself."
Feng Muchi said this and left angrily. Now that the misunderstanding has been explained clearly, the rest is up to Dong Lingjiu himself. Tan'er must be extremely helpless at this time, and he has to go back to accompany Tan'er quickly.
Dong Lingjiu stood there and looked at the direction Feng Muchi was leaving, with a dark expression on his face.
"Go and find out whether what Feng Muchi said is true or false. I want to know every word Dong Ling has said about Tan'er."
"yes!"
Lu Mansion.
Feng Muchi hurriedly returned to Xia Tan'er's yard, but just as he approached the door of the room, he was stopped by Hong Xiu again.
"Young Master Feng, Lord Xia is discussing with the lady in the room about the poisoner. Please don't mention what happened tonight when you go in later. The lady doesn't want Lord Xia to know about it."
"Okay, I understand, Hongxiu, have you eaten the sweet-scented osmanthus cake just now?"
"Master ate it. As expected, the one brought by Young Master Feng was very delicious. He even left a few pieces for Young Master Feng."
"Tan'er is still thinking about me at this time."
I have to say that Feng Muchi was really moved by Xia Tan'er. Now Xia Tan'er is not an enemy to him, but more like a family member. Since Feng Yulong disappeared, except for Lao Yan, Xia Tan'er He was the only one who was so kind to him and taught him so many things.
"I understand, go and make a pot of red date tea."
"yes."
Seeing Hongxiu withdrawing, Feng Muchi straightened his clothes and straightened his messy hair, then walked forward and knocked on the door.
"Tan'er, it's me, Feng Muchi, can I come in?"
