Chapter 52 Explained
The next day, the wind was gentle and the sun was shining brightly.

Jiang Mansion is extremely clean, with few servants, and few people can be seen on the alleys in the mansion.

The young apprentice still stayed in the courtyard and rarely came out.

Yue Gu runs away all day long, and Jiang Yu doesn't worry, because Tao Qian secretly follows Yue Gu's butt every day, and if anything goes wrong, he will definitely find him.

after dusk.

Jiang Yu dismissed Song Heqing, who suddenly wanted to follow her out, and went to the agreed place alone.

I don’t know how he, a housebound young man, got the news. I think there must be a lot of people who came to this meeting and knew about it.

Arriving in front of Liuting Terrace in the north of the city, Jiang Yu looked around and saw no one else.

The willows are lingering, and the lake surface is rippled, reflecting the emerald green.

The Liuting Terrace in the north of the city is adjacent to the lake. The water here takes over a small branch of the ice and snow meltwater river in the western mountains and flows into Yandu. Most of the water in Yandu City comes from here.

The main outflow flows eastward until it enters the sea.

There are trees and embankments on both sides of the bank for hundreds of miles, and the scenery is particularly beautiful. Usually, some literati drink and compose poems, talented people and beautiful ladies go boating and sing, and people who are leaving have banquets. They all like to come here.

Today, at dusk, there is no one in the scene, which is a pity.

Jiang Yu arrived a little early. She waited here for about half an hour before she saw a carriage slowly approaching not far away.

The carriage stopped outside the pavilion.

The first people to get off the carriage were Wen Ningzhi and his wife, and then a young man in light green clothes got off the carriage.

Jiang Yu took a cursory glance and could still recognize it. It seemed that there was no change from back then.

But upon closer inspection, I noticed something different. Maybe it was his eyes that were no longer as ignorant and childish as before, or maybe it was his temperament that was more steady and gentle.

"You are here?"

"Yes." Wen Ningzhi and his wife did not give Jiang Yu a good look, so they entered the pavilion and sat at the stone table.

On the contrary, when Wen Jinyan passed by Jiang Yu, he nodded lightly with a smile on his face, undisturbed by the rumors from the outside world.

The stone table is not big, and the four of them are almost sitting around each other. Wen Zhining and Meng Yunyi deliberately separated Jiang Yu and Wen Jinyan, and sandwiched Jiang Yu in the middle. Unexpectedly, Wen Jinyan happened to be sitting opposite Jiang Yu. .

Wen Ningzhi noticed that the situation was not good, but she had already sat down and could not change her seat, so her expression was not clear.

Meng Yunyi blinked and was speechless. The pampered young man was now much gentler in front of his wife.

"Brother, don't wait for her. I brought her here specially today. Please tell her clearly and stop being stubborn." Wen Ningzhi turned to her side and held Wen Jinyan's cold hand tightly and comforted her.

Jiang Yu looked at Wen Jinyan. His eyes looked at her without any affection or admiration. Could such a person have been waiting for so many years because of her?

In the past, Jiang Yu was still not sure whether it was Lord Wen's deliberate matchmaking that made the ignorant young man really identify with her when they met in the palace that day, so he had been waiting for so many years, but now she began to have doubts.

"Jiang has been traveling around all these years, and he doesn't dare to delay others. He has no plans to get married. Recently, I have heard that the rumors about our relationship have become more and more serious. I am here to clarify." Jiang Yu said bluntly.

After hearing this, Wen Jinyan glanced at Wen Ningzhi helplessly, and then said to Jiang Yu: "I never like to go out, and I don't know much about outside news. In recent days, I found out that my sister has been doing something about me in the past few years. I’m disturbing Mr. Jiang.”

"Brother, why do you say that?" Wen Ningzhi looked at Wen Jinyan in confusion.

They have all seen what their brother has been harboring in his heart all these years.

"Zhi Ning, let's talk. You listen to me first." Wen Jinyan gave Jiang Yu an apologetic look, and then continued to comfort Wen Zhining, "Don't be anxious, some things are not what you think."

Only when Wen Ningzhi promised Wen Jinyan not to say more did Jiang Yu turn his eyes.

Looking at each other, Wen Jinyan didn't see the impatience in Jiang Yu's eyes, and he was relieved a lot.

"Speaking of which, it's quite troublesome for Mr. Jiang. It's my fault."

Jiang Yu listened quietly without making a sound.

"When we first met, Mr. Jiang didn't know your identity. Later, when we met in the palace, it really made me have some fantasies. I thought that it would be great if I could spend my life with a gentle and polite person like Mr. Jiang in the future, but..." At this point..." Wen Jinyan paused for a moment.

"But what? Mr. Wen, it's okay to say it. There are no outsiders here today. We just treat it as a casual chat." Jiang Yu took the conversation and took the initiative to let Wen Jinyan relax and speak clearly.

"However, after careful consideration many nights, I still feel that you and I are not suitable for each other. You do not like me. I could see at that time that I admire you more than you admire me."

Wen Jinyan stood up and walked to the pavilion. The wooden railings on both sides were stretched across his waist. The wind from the lake blew in his face, making it cool and comfortable.

"I have long since wanted nothing to do with you, sir, but I didn't say anything. My family members all thought that I loved you and didn't want to agree to other marriages, but this was actually just my excuse."

It was getting late, and the wind by the lake was getting stronger. Jiang Yu raised his hand to tuck the messed up hair behind his ears, and looked at the man standing not far away.

The wind blew up his sleeves and gown. He was very slender, and his back was particularly weak, as if he could be blown away by a gust of wind, but his back was straight, with the strong feeling of a green pine tree.

"I wonder what Mr. Wen is thinking?" Since he has no interest in her, and there is another secret behind the matter, he should find a way to communicate with his family in the past six years, instead of just keeping it in his heart and causing the current scene.

"In fact, I already have someone else I like in my heart, but her identity is a little special and I can't tell my family, so I keep it secret. Now that my sister is here, I can just say it clearly, and you can be innocent."

"Brother, you buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones on weekdays and never leave the house at all. How can you have someone else you like? There is no need for you to talk nonsense for this woman." Wen Ningzhi immediately couldn't sit still and stood up and pointed at Jiang Yu angrily say.

Wen Jinyan turned around and looked at his sister with a smile on his face, "When did my brother lie to you? When did I tell you that I had other thoughts about Mr. Jiang? This matter indeed has nothing to do with Mr. Jiang." relation."

Wen Ningzhi looked at her brother suspiciously. She said she didn't love him anymore, even though her brother had never refuted it before.

Jiang Yu looked at this somewhat chaotic scene and was a little clueless. Regardless of whether Wen Jinyan was telling the truth or not, his words were the most beneficial to Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu stood up and was about to say a few more words to Wen Jinyan when suddenly there was a slight noise in his ears. A group of men in black flew down from the trees beside the pavilion. The silver swords glowed with a different color in the twilight. Head straight for them.

"Wen Jinyan, be careful."

Jiang Yu grabbed Wen Jinyan, who was standing at the edge of the pavilion, and pulled him behind him.
