MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 20
Chapter 20
Wen Ning and Wen Qi reached an agreement, feeling very happy. But when she returned to Wen's mansion, the sky was already dark, she talked with Linglan in the carriage, and then entered the mansion at a leisurely pace.
I thought I would run into Wen Tingchun and be scolded by him, but I didn't expect Wen Tingchun to be on duty at this hour today, but I ran into Wen Lan who I hadn't seen for a few days.
Wen Lan actually deliberately waited for Wen Ning in the porch of Shanti Courtyard.
He has been busy with his work these few days, and it is almost Hai Hour when he returns home every day, so it is inconvenient to come to her, but he still has many things to ask her.
"Brother?" Wen Ning was surprised, "Are you waiting for your sister here?"
Wen Ning walked over holding her skirt.
Wen Lan glanced over, and knew that this younger sister was in a good mood today, with a smile on her face and a spring breeze on her face.
Then he smiled and said, "That's right, where did you go today? You came back so late. Thanks to my father's busy work, I haven't been on duty today."
Wen Ning didn't hide anything, and said directly: "Go to the second brother for a sip of tea, and also have a meal with him."
Wen Lan nodded, she had other things on her mind, so she didn't ask much about Wen Ning and Wen Qi.
"Brother, do you want to sit in?" Although winter has passed, the night in early spring is chilly.
Wen Lan shook her head: "No, big brother will come to ask you a few words today, and I have some urgent matters to go to the house later."
As soon as Wen Ning rolled her eyes, she knew that Wen Lan was probably coming to ask her something.
After Yun Tinglou that day, she and Wen Lan never met again. She left first that day, and only told the boy that he was not coming to pick her up, but she didn't mention the situation that day to him.
Sure enough, Wen Lan looked around, and immediately asked in a low voice: "How did my sister meet Shuzhi that day?"
Wen Ning finished his speech a few days ago, and said a little shyly: "He accepted my letter to him."
This statement is not false, that day Linglan splashed Pei You's robe, and when he left, he took away the paper on the table, and never returned it to her.
In the past few days, she even asked Linglan to send several letters.
But in Wen Lanli, it's not just the literal meaning.
He was a little emotional, but also a little...comfortable? I don't want him to be a majestic seven-foot man, but he actually started the job of a matchmaker, and he succeeded!
"How did I hear that something unpleasant happened in the Yunting building that day?" Wen Lan asked again, and he also heard it from his colleagues when he was on duty today.
Wen Ning nodded: "The son of the Qin family seems to be called Qin Yu? He wants to trouble the prince. It happened that the second son of Shen was drinking in Yuntinglou, and they almost got into a fight, but the younger sister borrowed a big brother Qin Yu ran away when he heard about the official prestige of going up to the peak with the elder brother, but he didn't make a fuss."
Wen Lan listened to the first half with a serious face, but when she heard Wen Ning say that she was borrowing the official authority, she couldn't help laughing: "Ah Ning is clever."
"Okay, big brother understands, it's windy at night, go in and rest quickly." Wen Lan had other things to do, so she stopped asking, gathered Wen Ning's cloak, then turned and left.
Wen Ning tilted her head and thought for a while. She didn't understand why Wen Lan rushed to ask her about Yun Tinglou since she was in a hurry. After thinking about it for a while, she took Linglan back to her room.
But Wen Lan said that he hurried to find Wen Ning because the person he was going to find at night was Wang You.
Recently, there is a case in Jingzhao Mansion that is quite troublesome.
A woman and her mother-in-law were kidnapped by bandits when they were traveling together. They managed to escape, but when they returned home, they were rejected by their husband's family. If she loses her virginity, even if she wants to divorce, it will be her who will, and the dowry should be returned to her.
As soon as the case came to Jingzhao Mansion, he wanted to ask Wang You for help.
Although it was not his duty to join the army as a household officer, he felt that the woman was really pitiful, and he couldn't even bring out the money to find someone to write the pleadings. Furthermore, she will be taken away by bandits, so it is righteous to exchange her mother-in-law for her safety.
If she loses this case, how many women should be chilled?
It's just that Wang You Palace's exam is coming soon, he originally wanted to wait for these few days to pass, but he didn't want things to get worse and worse. He came off duty early today just to meet him and ask if he would like to help.
Before going to see Wang You, he had to figure out the situation between him and Wen Ning to avoid embarrassment.
He was relieved when Wen Ning said that the relationship between the two of them was smooth.
When he knocked on the gate of the palace, Wang Youyou woke up from a dream.
Dream?
so real?
Wang You could almost feel the veins on his forehead still throbbing, which caused something to drill into his brain, and made him have a splitting headache.
But that day at Yuntinglou, it was clearly different from the scene in the dream.
I don't know why I have such a ridiculous dream.
Could it be because he cleaned up Qin Yu just now?
He sat on the couch and pressed his forehead. There were footsteps outside, followed by Wang Qinsheng's lowered voice: "My lord, Wen Canjun is outside the door. He said he has something important to discuss with you, and he wants to come in."
Wang You glanced at the sky.
It's time for Hai.
When Wen Lan was mentioned, he inexplicably thought of March 18th in his dream. The person he saw was Wen Lan, not Wen Ning.
He pressed his forehead harder, and said to the door: "I have already fallen asleep, please Wen Canjun come back tomorrow."
What can Wen Lan do with him? Could it be that he is building a bridge for his sister again.
Wang Qinsheng scratched his head. At this time in the past, his son was indeed asleep. He saw that the lights in the master's room were dim, and he was afraid of disturbing Wang You, so he ignored the master's previous order and ran to open the door.
He also refused according to Wang You's instructions.
Wen Lan didn't expect it, after all... If Wang Youzhen fell asleep, the bookboy wouldn't ask him to wait.
Maybe he came too late.
Wen Lan didn't think much about it, and planned to come over as soon as he was on duty tomorrow.
Wangyou got up from the couch, blew out the lamp in the study, and felt a cool breeze blowing on the way back to the room. Only then did he feel that his mind was finally clearer. It was just a relatively real dream, probably because he was a little tired recently.
He went back to his room to wash and decided to rest earlier.
I just fell into the bed, closed my eyes, and fell into another dream.
In the 14th year of Jiahe, on March 25th, the weather was still fine, and a peach blossom was blooming outside the wall, and a branch was brought into the yard, which was more spring-like than the previous few days.
Because Yun Tinglou came out a few days ago, Wang Fu ordered Wang You not to go out again before the palace examination. Wang Qinsheng had been raised for two days, and his body was almost recovered. He just thought about the scene of Yun Tinglou that day, and his spirit was sluggish, and he hid in a corner from time to time to wipe his tears.
What kind of a glorious figure his young master is, but he suffered such a great humiliation under the eyes of everyone, how could he not feel distressed?
It's all his fault. If you are not gluttonous, just wait for the young master outside the restaurant.
It's also the fault of the handsome young man, who pretends to be a tiger and bullies others!
Wang You came out of the study, and saw him squatting in the corner, wiping tears with one hand, pulling weeds on the ground with the other, grunting resentfully.
