Chapter 157 Encounter
Chapter 157 Encounter
Just when everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts, the Jiang family's carriage finally stopped at the gate of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.
Song Wan got off the carriage and looked up at the four large characters "Ningyuan Marquis Mansion" shining golden in the sunlight, as well as the bursts of laughter coming from inside the door.
The corners of her mouth also curled up into an extremely bright smile.
Jiang Wanqiao.
Today, let us take a look at the last excitement of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.
But at this moment, a late carriage happened to stop next to Jiang Mansion's carriage.
Seeing the person walking down from there, Hong Chang behind Song Wan couldn't help but call out softly.
"Miss."
Song Wan turned around and saw an extremely familiar face.
Yun Zheng.
But this time, compared with the last time she saw him in Prince Huai's Mansion, Song Wan didn't know why her heart suddenly became extremely calm.
All the complicated emotions between her and Yun Zheng, apart from the hatred, which she herself could not control, seemed to have disappeared after her last visit to Prince Huai's Mansion.
Song Wan thought, people are really strange sometimes. Often, they think it will take a long time to forget something.
Truly letting go only takes a moment.
"Prince Yun." She saluted Yun Zheng calmly.
When Yun Zheng saw the woman in front of him, there was nothing unnatural on his face.
"It turns out to be Miss Jiang."
"The golden medicine Miss Jiang left for me last time was very useful. I haven't thanked her yet."
She spoke naturally and freely, as if they had not done such a despicable thing to her in Prince Huai's Mansion last time.
Song Wan just found it ridiculous.
Is it possible that this person has been pretending for so long that he can even deceive himself?
The thought flashed through her mind, and Song Wan looked up at the man in front of her whom she had loved for five years.
"It's just a doctor's duty. Why should you thank me again and again, Your Highness?"
"However, I recently read a book of miscellaneous notes and found it quite insightful. Would Your Majesty be willing to take the time to listen to it?"
Yun Zheng looked at the look in Song Wan's eyes and was a little unsure of what this woman wanted to do. He just maintained a modest and gentlemanly demeanor and spoke gently.
"Ms. Jiang, please speak."
The smile in Song Wan's eyes became more charming.
"In that miscellaneous note, I saw a monster called "Bashe"
"This python usually roams the water without leaving any trace, but it has a huge appetite. It hides in the dark, lurking quietly. Once the opportunity is right, it will strike without hesitation, leaving no room for maneuver. It can even... swallow an elephant."
Song Wan paused and stared at Yun Zheng with her eyes.
"I think if this python were to transform into a human and be born into the human world, it would probably be a gentleman with elegant demeanor and refined manners..."
"But this python swallowed an elephant, and it took three months to subdue it, and many people died from it. I wonder... if this python were to be reborn as a human, would it have the same fate?"
Yun Zheng listened to Song Wan's words, and then he seemed to finally take a closer look at the woman in front of him.
Then I saw her in a shimmering red dress, and against the sunlight, her skin looked even whiter than snow, brighter and more eye-catching.
He naturally heard the sarcasm in her words.
And considering what happened to her in Prince Huai's Mansion last time, it was understandable that she had a grudge against the Mansion.
He just didn't expect that with her background, she would dare to make sarcastic remarks to his face.
And at this moment, these bright eyes that seemed to be looking at him with a smile, but were burning with a little scorching fire inside, seemed to be silently accusing him. At this moment, they seemed to overlap with another pair of eyes.
That day, on the cliff.
she was.
Also in red, also...
Look at him with such eyes.
The overlapping figures made him forget how to start speaking for a moment.
Seeing that he didn't answer and just stared at her, Song Wan didn't want to show her fear, so she just continued to stare at him straight, her bright eyes seemed to see into people's hearts.
However, the confrontation between the two people looked like a completely different scene to "outsiders".
Jun Jiuchen sat in the carriage, looking at the two people standing still at the door of Ningyuan Marquis' Mansion and "looking at each other affectionately", and his eyes exposed outside the mask narrowed slightly.
"Follow the wind, drive the car over there."
Suifeng was a little confused when he heard this. Didn’t the prince come to Ningyuan Marquis’ Mansion today to question him?
"Your Highness, the people on the list haven't all arrived yet. Do you want to show up early?"
Jun Jiuchen just glanced at Suifeng.
"Long-winded."
Suifeng was glared at by his own prince and quickly shut up. He drove the carriage over and stopped next to the carriages of Prince Huai's Mansion and the Jiang Mansion.
Then, that bony hand slowly opened the car curtain and lowered its eyes to look at the two people who were looking at each other.
"Prince Yun and Miss Jiang are standing at the entrance of this mansion, motionless... refusing to let the guests in to offer their congratulations?"
Suddenly I heard this familiar tone with a hint of displeasure.
Song Wan immediately shifted her gaze away from Yun Zheng, looked sideways, and bumped into Jun Jiuchen's deep pupils on the carriage.
Song Wan didn't know why, but she suddenly felt panicked, like someone who had been caught doing something wrong, and subconsciously gave him a wry smile.
"Your Majesty, you are here."
Jun Jiuchen just glanced at her lightly, put down the curtain in his hand, and then took a long step, walked down from the carriage, and stood beside Song Wan.
But he didn't look at her, but turned his gaze to Yun Zheng.
"Prince Yun has just recovered from his injuries and returned to the Imperial Guards. He should be very busy with his duties. It's quite unusual for him to attend this small Marquisate's coming-of-age ceremony today."
