ninth junior sister

Chapter 61

Ling Xiaoruo rushed all the way to Linyi City, now she has to go back to Ling's house to plan the next action, before she was looking for the jade pendant in the Cangshan Mountain, but now, she has to look for it in the vast crowd, this difficulty is naturally great Much, she needs to plan well.

However, before that, she still has to solve a problem, that is, the marriage contract with the third prince, so she doesn't want to marry someone she has never met inexplicably, but what should she do to avoid marrying What about him?
Ling Xiaoruo thought about this question all the way, after traveling for a day and a night, she finally arrived at the back door of Ling's house.

When her figure disappeared at the back door of Ling's house, a figure hidden in the night widened his eyes in shock. He stared blankly at the word "Ling Mansion" on the lantern at the back door for a long time without recovering. .

Ling Xiaoruo applied the potion on his face after entering the back door, then took off the mask and put it in his bosom.On the high wall outside the mansion, when the following figure saw her movement, his black eyes widened enormously.

He looked into the distance and saw Ling Xiaoruo's real face clearly.Under the silver moonlight, the woman's delicate face is like a peony blooming on the branches in spring. Her eyebrows are picturesque, her beautiful eyes are shining, and her red lips are charming and charming, as if they are shining and seductive under the moonlight.

Ling Xiaoruo returned to her small courtyard along the path.However, when she just opened the courtyard door, she was really shocked by the scene inside.

I saw the courtyard full of people standing in darkness, and countless torches were crackling and burning in the night sky.

The red candlelight reflected people's faces red, like the red camellias all over the mountains and plains, full of coquettishness like blood.

"Where did you go?" A low voice burst out from the crowd.

Ling Xiaoruo followed the sound, but saw Ling Qiuhe walking out of the crowd with an angry expression on his face. He stood in front of Ling Xiaoruo, and before she had time to speak, he greeted her face with lightning speed. and go.

"Snapped--"

Ling Qiuhe's big palm was strong and powerful, he was really angry, when he knew that Ruo'er had left Ling's mansion again, he wanted to strangle her neck with his own hands.

Ling Xiaoruo received a slap in the face, her head suddenly turned to the left, she felt a burning pain on her delicate face, and the taste of blood filled her mouth instantly, however, she perseveredly lowered her eyes and did not groan. speak up.

"Master, Ruo'er went out to find Yupei, I let her out..." Mrs. Ling cried out heartbroken when she saw her daughter being beaten.

Ling Qiuhe immediately turned around and yelled at Mrs. Ling: "Shut up, if you indulge her again, I will also imprison you!"

Madam Ling's eyes were closed, tears rolled out, what happened to their Ling family, because she was so excited, she crooked and fell to the side.

"Madam..." The maid next to her excitedly supported Madam Ling, and exclaimed.

Ling Xiaoruo turned his head to look at Mrs. Ling in the crowd, his heart was only rippling like waves.

After Ling Qiuhe slapped him, the anger in his heart subsided a little. After he took a deep breath, he pointed at the crowd in the courtyard and said to Ling Xiaoruo, "Ruo'er, look up at these things. People! They have worked for our Ling family for so many years, and they have worked hard without credit, do you have the heart to let them suffer because of you? What is wrong with them?"

Ling Xiaoruo raised her eyes and glanced at what Ling Qiuhe was pointing at. Standing in front of her were all the maids and servants of the Ling family. Their faces were full of innocence. , all reflect the longing for a better life in the future.

Ling Qiuhe walked up to a servant and asked him, "Where is your wife?"

The servant replied in a low voice: "Behind."

Ling Qiuhe ordered: "Let her come forward."

After the boy nodded, he went to the back of the crowd to find out his wife, when his wife appeared in front of Ling Xiaoruo, tears accumulated in her eyes at some point.

"Wow wow..."

A baby's cry pierced the silence of the night.All eyes in the courtyard were completely focused on the baby who was waiting to be fed.I saw the baby stretching out a pair of chubby hands and crying softly in the mother's arms, which was really cute.

The baby is the boy's one-month-old child.

Ling Qiuhe pointed to the child and said to Ling Xiaoruo: "Look at him, he has just landed not long ago, and there are still beautiful days waiting for him in the future, but if you act willfully, he will have no future to speak of, you Did you think about him when you did it? Did you ever think about the seriousness of the consequences?"

Why doesn't his daughter consider the consequences of doing things at all?What did she think the imperial order was?Is it a child's play?Is it because she said that she can not marry if she wants to?Where did she put the lives of more than 300 members of the Ling family?
"Look at him, there is an elderly mother in his family, do you have the heart to let a white-haired man give a black-haired man?" Ling Qiuhe then walked up to another servant and continued pointing at him.

Ling Xiaoruo's black eyes were gradually filled with water. From birth until now, she had never felt a sense of solemnity, but at this moment, she only felt that it was extremely tragic, even worse than that hero's expedition.

Yes, she is burdened with the happiness and well-being of too many people. If she escapes marriage again, everyone in the courtyard will be implicated.

She has never hated the feudal kingship system, but at this moment, she really hates it. She really hates it. Once upon a time, she was sad for the first beauty. Isn't she a reflection of her now?
However, would she have the heart to push all these people into a doom?

"Huh—" Ling Xiaoruo raised his head, closed his eyes and let out a deep breath.

Forget it, it might be worthwhile to trade her own happiness for the happiness of so many people!
Ling Xiaoruo closed her eyes for a moment, then opened her eyes, the tears accumulated in her eyes had already dried up, her star pupils shone brightly, like the brightest star in the dark night, she stared at everyone and said solemnly: "Father, Needless to say, from now until the day I get married, I will never leave the Ling Mansion again, don't worry!"

Suddenly a gust of breeze blew from the gate of the courtyard, blowing Ling Xiaoruo's plain long gown and curling up a strand of hair in front of her ears. Ling Qiuhe was slightly surprised by her calmness and stability, as well as the determination in her tone.

He looked at his daughter in the crowd, and felt that her body was as colorful as a colorful phoenix. When did his daughter have such a powerful momentum?Is he dazzled?
After Ling Xiaoruo put down her words, she walked towards the crowd. When people saw her walking towards them, they all consciously gave way.As the torch moved, Ling Xiaoruo passed through the crowd calmly, her figure danced and flickered against the backdrop of the fire, she meandered all the way away, and then pushed open the door and entered.
