Ren Suyi was woken up by the sound of rain hitting plantains, and when she woke up, there was no one around her.Thinking of the situation before going to bed, Guo Chan took her back to the room to take a bath, and she seemed to fall asleep while taking a bath.

The obscene clothes on her body had already been changed, Ren Suyi smelled it, and it seemed that there was still a smell belonging to Guo Chan in the room, she couldn't help but curled her lips and smiled.

She got out of bed barefoot like this, went to the window and pushed it open. It was dark at some point, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the coolness brought by the rain made her body tremble.

After watching quietly for a while, the sound of footsteps came from the yard, Ren Suyi's lips curled up, and she turned around just in time to see Guo Chan pushing the door in. Surprisingly, Dongqing, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, followed behind her, holding an umbrella in her hand. , Half of the body was soaked.

Ren Suyi was stunned, and said: "Dongqing has returned to Beijing? Why is she so wet, go and change clothes quickly, to avoid getting caught in the wind and cold."

Dongqing looked up at Ren Suyi, and then at Guo Chan. After Guo Chan nodded, she bowed to Ren Suyi and turned back, closing the door to block the sound of the rain outside.

Ren Suyi went to see Guo Chan, her eyes were slightly cold and dark, and there was a thud in her heart, an ominous premonition spread in her heart, covering the previous warmth.

"But something happened?" When he asked, his heart was filled with sadness.In fact, Ren Suyi thinks that she is like this in this life, always falling into the cliff when she is close to happiness.

Sensing her sadness, Guo Chan took two steps forward and took her hand, sighing, "Ling Qi is missing."

Ren Suyi was startled, people will die, how could they disappear?

"General Ling was not with the army in Xuzhou, how could he disappear?"

"That's what's been said so far. Four days ago our army had a fierce battle with the Turkic people. In the end, the Turkic people were defeated and retreated. Ling Qi led his men to chase after the third Turkic prince who escaped from the side road. He never returned to the barracks, including the 20 people he took away." When Guo Chan received the news, she agreed with Ren Suyi, but not only Dongqing but also the news from the palace, she had to believe it.

Ren Suyi's eyes became confused, Ling Qi's life and death were unknown, if he was still alive, but if he died in battle, what should she do?

Guo Chan's voice came from next to my ear, "Clean up, we have to go back to the city immediately."

Ren Suyi barely regained consciousness, in fact she didn't want to go back to the city at this time, after returning to the city she became Ren Suyi again.

It was rare for Ren Suyi to say willfully: "I don't want to go back."

Guo Chan said softly: "Be good, I will accompany you back to the General's Mansion."

Ren Suyi was stunned, and felt warm because of that sentence of being more obedient. When she met Guo Chan's firm gaze, her heart gradually settled down. No matter what happened, she had to face it. As long as she didn't give up, she could always find a solution.

Different from the relaxed and happy mood when going out of the city, when returning to the city at night accompanied by the pattering rain, the mood is heavy and complicated.Guo Chan has always held Ren Suyi's hand, giving her warmth, knowing that she is worried, giving silent support, and will accompany her no matter what.

The city gate was closed, Guo Chan showed the gold medal given by Sima Yi, and soon the carriage passed through the city gate and went straight to the General's Mansion.

It was night, and there were no people on the street. Entering the inner city, the General's Mansion arrived soon. The two red lanterns hanging at the gate swayed in the rainy night, and the flickering candlelight added a bit of eerie feeling.

The butler opened the side door wide, and the carriage drove directly into the General's Mansion through the side door, and only stopped when the carriage reached the second door.Lian Bi, who had been waiting here for a long time, saw the car curtain raised and immediately stepped forward holding an umbrella.Guo Chan came out first. Guo Chan took the umbrella and said, "I'll just hold on with her."

After saying that, another maid was about to step forward and backed away, Lianbi handed the umbrella to Guo Chan, and she shared an umbrella with the maid.

The General's Mansion is a family of military generals, and the courtyard decoration is not complicated and complicated, it is extremely simple.The housekeeper led the way, the direction was Old General Ling's courtyard, Ren Suyi was puzzled about the purpose of going to see Old General Ling at this time.

Several people arrived at the door, but Guo Chan stopped and said, "I have something to discuss with Old General Ling, you wait here for me, we will go home later."

Just this sentence made Ren Suyi's eyes wet, and Guo Chan raised her hand to wipe away her tears regardless of the presence of others.When Guo Chan left, the warmth of her fingertips still remained on Ren Suyi's face.

Lian Bi was waiting outside with Ren Suyi, her heart was complicated, the news of Ling Qi's disappearance had spread throughout the mansion, everyone in the General Mansion was worried, Ling Qi had no heir, if he died, the General Mansion would really have no successor, many people Start worrying about the future.There were also people talking about Ren Suyi behind her back, saying that she ordered Hard Kefu, first the heir of Xuanping Houfu, and then General Ling.

If it wasn't for Ren Suyi's order, Lianbi was determined to rush up and argue with those gossip women.Naturally, she didn't believe that her young lady was a man of fate, but that fate was playing tricks on people.But just now, she saw that the princess has always cared for the young lady and treated her tenderly. She has already decided in her heart that even if the whole world thinks that the young lady is unknown, the princess will not. The princess will treat the young lady well and cherish her as always.

Ren Suyi didn't want to go too far, so she stood under the eaves and waited. The rain fell down the eaves like a bead curtain, and her mood was no longer as flustered as before.In any case, she will be with Guo Chan, no matter what the price is.

And there was one thing that she was very puzzled about. The attitude that Guo Chan had been showing since just now was that she was going to take her out of the General's Mansion today.It stands to reason that now that Ling Qi is missing, her nominal wife should stay at the General's Mansion and wait with peace of mind, otherwise there will be endless rumors and gossips.She believed that it wasn't that Guo Chan didn't think about this matter, but maybe it didn't need to be considered at all.

After looking at it for a while, Ren Suyi suddenly said: "Lianbi, you go and pack our luggage first, and leave after Achan finishes."

Apart from the dowry, the two of them didn't have much luggage, but Lianbi wasn't sure if it would be easy. After all, everyone witnessed the young lady marrying into the general's mansion in a bridal sedan chair, and she vaguely felt that after leaving this time, the young lady would never return to the general's mansion again.

Lian Bi asked cautiously: "Miss, is it really possible?"

Ren Suyi looked back at her and said with a smile, "Achan said to go home, so we will go home."

She believed in Guo Chan.

Lian Bi's eyes lit up, she nodded heavily, and said, "The servant girl will clean up now."

With a small voice, she held an umbrella and rushed into the rain, Ren Suyi looked at the hazy courtyard and sighed softly.

In the time of a stick of incense, Lianbi left and returned, Ren Suyi was surprised: "So fast?"

Lianbi put away her umbrella, and said with a smile: "A few days ago, you often didn't live in the general's mansion, and many things were stored in your previous carriage. The servants put the rest of the valuables into the carriage. As for other Yes, I think the princess will send someone to pick it up later if she wants to come."

Ren Suyi couldn't help laughing when she heard this, Lianbi didn't treat Guo Chan as an outsider at all.

"You did a good job." Ren Suyi affirmed, and at the same time looked at Lianbi seriously, "Lianbi, if I encounter a big change in the future, and I am no longer your young lady, are you still willing to follow me? If If you don't want to, I will find a good family for you so that you can live a peaceful and stable life in the future."

Regardless of whether Ling Qi is alive or dead, she must get rid of the shackles of the general's mansion and the shackles of that imperial decree.If it was Ling Qisheng, she and Divorce would break off the engagement and return to a free life.If Ling Qi died, she would hide her name and change her face, she would no longer be Ren Suyi.In short, she will never take the surname of the Ling family, even if Ling Qi dies in battle and becomes a famous general who has contributed to the country.

I don't know how long I waited, but the rain gradually stopped, but the night was still very deep.

When Guo Chan came out, she saw Ren Suyi standing under the eaves, her gaze fell into the distance, she couldn't help but felt a little soft in her heart, she walked up to hold her hand, and said softly, "Let's go, let's go home."

Ren Suyi looked down at the hands they were holding, and smiled, "Okay."

As the two walked forward, a low voice sounded.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Well, it's a bit difficult for the old man to talk about things."

There was laughter, "What did you say to the old man?"

"Don't tell you."

"I'll always know."

Old General Ling came out of the room slowly, holding a cloud-pattern memorial in his hand. The housekeeper waited quietly and couldn't help but said: "Master, Madam packed up the luggage and took it away."

It took a while before the voice sounded, "Let her go." He handed over the memorial in his hand, "This memorial is ordered to be sent to the palace."

The housekeeper took it and answered yes, secretly thinking in his heart, I'm afraid the sky in the general's mansion will change after all.

When only Old General Ling was left, he sighed heavily, his eyes dimmed, and within one night, he looked much older.

In the carriage, Ren Suyi kept asking Guo Chan what happened to General Ling and why General Ling agreed to leave the General's Mansion.

After several times of pressing, Guo Chan had no choice but to say: "Of course I promised Old General Ling to find his grandson for him, so that the Ling family will not lose their children and grandchildren."

"Looking for? Ling Qi is missing, maybe he's dead." Ren Suyi looked at Guo Chan in surprise, not knowing why the two had such an agreement.

"Ling Qi is not dead." Guo Chan affirmed, "The bodies of the soldiers who followed him have been found, but Ling Qi's is not. Old General Ling is not reconciled to seeing people and dead bodies. This is a weight to bargain with him."

Ren Suyi felt uneasy, "But how do you find it?"

"Naturally go to the place where he disappeared."

Ren Suyi's heart felt cold, and she was a little at a loss, Guo Chan comforted: "Don't worry, I was also ordered to supervise the battle this time. I went to Xuzhou and looked for Ling Qi by the way. It's good to find it. If I can't find it, I will wait until the war is over." Then return to Beijing."

Intuitively, this matter is not simple, but Guo Chan didn't say anything, Ren Suyi was inconvenient to ask, and just said: "Then when will you leave Beijing?"

Guo Chan smiled and said, "Naturally we have to wait for Old General Ling's promise to be fulfilled before we can leave in peace."

Ren Suyi sighed, and said: "I dare not let you leave, but I know you have to leave, Xuzhou must have very important matters to deal with, I love you, how can I hold you back?"

Guo Chan knows that Ren Suyi is smart, but if she leaves Beijing and has no one to protect Ren Suyi, the more she knows, the more troublesome she will be.

"The matter of the Ling family is a bit troublesome. It was only when Dongqing went to find out some clues this time, but I'm not sure yet. I'll find out when I go to find out." Guo Chan rubbed Ren Suyi's head, and said: "It's just Fortunately, taking this opportunity to let Old General Ling personally write a letter to dissolve the marriage between the two of you, it can be regarded as a no-brainer."

Ren Suyi's complexion changed, and she sighed inwardly, to make old General Ling take the initiative to write a letter to dissolve a marriage that he personally asked the emperor, how big is this matter for the Ling family?Perhaps it is so serious that Old General Ling begged Guo Chan so much.
