The Liuyuan Garden has just opened, and literati and poets like to come here. The scenery is really good.
In fact, the folk customs in Daqi are open, and women can also play in ornamental gardens such as the Liuyuan Garden. However, Chaoli had never been here in her previous life. She always paid attention to whether her behavior would be inappropriate. She was worried about discrediting Gu Hanzhang, so she
Didn't come.
Entering the Liuyuan Garden, you hear the sound of silk bamboo, passing through the layers of green bamboo, and you see a wide waterside pavilion in front of you.
There are tables, chairs and refreshments on the waterside pavilion. There are women playing music on the shore, a stringed zither and two bamboo flutes. It is so quiet and beautiful that it is so beautiful.
"This place is indeed an elegant place." Chaoli said.
Song Lingxin chuckled, "Yes, when I asked you to come here a few days ago, you said that you wanted to get married with peace of mind, so today I took the opportunity to have some fun."
"You are absolutely right." Chaoli nodded.
She stayed at home for a whole month before her wedding to avoid exposing Gu Hanzhang.
Now, what does it matter?
Gu Hanzhang can leave her halfway to meet his sweetheart, and she can also go out with her friends.
"A Li, I have already booked a private room. You can see the flower forest behind me from the window. I heard that the plum blossoms are blooming beautifully. How about enjoying the plum blossoms in the private room without anyone disturbing you?" Song Lingxin said quickly.
Chaoli nodded slightly, "It's wonderful."
The two of them walked side by side towards the south corner. Just as they reached the corner of the corridor, Gu Hanzhang and Cheng Feng came from the other side of the corridor one after the other.
Gu Hanzhang raised his eyes and his pupils shrank slightly, as if he did not expect to see Chaoli in the Lingering Garden. Even though Chaoli was accompanied by her best friend Song Lingxin, this behavior should not happen to her.
He had never been so careless about leaving her.
"What's wrong, Hanzhang?" Chengfeng asked softly.
Since Cheng Feng was walking behind Gu Hanzhang, he didn't see Chao Li and Song Lingxin walking in front of them and turned into another corridor, which was blocked by the rockery in the middle.
"Nothing." Gu Hanzhang replied.
Although he said this, Gu Hanzhang did not leave, his eyes still stayed in front of him.
It's strange, she is just a figure from behind, she has always been unwelcome to her, and she has never been nice to her, and the marriage only lasted a day.
Now, he recognized Chaoli at a glance.
There were a lot of people traveling at the moment, and some women had already recognized Gu Hanzhang and even whispered about it.
"Didn't I just say that the prince's carriage has gone outside the city? Why is he in Liuyuan himself?"
Another person replied in a low voice, "The prince can go outside the city first, and then come to Liuyuan. It's okay for us to see him after all."
"But the prince didn't just get married yesterday, and he went out to play with Mr. Cheng today. Maybe the wife doesn't like him, so we might still have a chance."
There was constant discussion, and even if it was suppressed, it could not be hidden from Gu Hanzhang and Cheng Feng, two people with martial arts skills.
However, Gu Hanzhang didn't pay attention, but stared at the corridor ahead.
The Lingering Garden is very large, and the corridor is more than 50 meters long, so walking takes a while.
Chengfeng opened the folding fan with a click, looking at the women with a romantic but not obscene smile on his face.
"Dear ladies, Hanzhang just got married yesterday, and his wife is still a great beauty. It's the time of deep love, so don't waste your efforts. Look at me. Although I'm not as handsome as Hanzhang, I can still be considered a beauty.
He is a handsome young man and his status is not low."
With Cheng Feng enlivening the atmosphere in the middle, the ladies also smiled and chatted with him.
"Let's go first."
Gu Hanzhang raised his feet and walked in the direction where Chaoli and Song Lingxin left just now.
Cheng Feng wanted to say something else, but he was entangled by four or five women and couldn't get away. He thought he was a passionate young man, so he couldn't do anything like leaving a woman behind.
Chaoli didn't know that Gu Hanzhang was following them, and soon he and Song Lingxin arrived at their private room. Qingyi and Song Lingxin's maid Zi Yuan were guarding the door of the private room.
Gu Hanzhang turned around and dodged, landing behind the elegant room and hiding his body in a bamboo cage next to the waterside pavilion.
"A Li, did Gu Hanzhang treat you badly?" Song Lingxin immediately asked what was in her heart.
If Gu Hanzhang was in front of her, she would not dare to call him by his name. After all, that person was really terrifyingly cold.
But now that no one is around, she is not afraid at all.
Gu Hanzhang stood there, looking at Chaoli through the mottled bamboo joints.
"Ling Xin, it was me who forced me, don't worry about me, I have given up. I was the one who insisted on marrying him at the beginning, but I ignored the fact that he never liked me at all. When we first met in Xiangshan, I was devoted to him.
I fell in love with him, and after asking around, I finally found out his identity. Later, we met again at the Bridge of Sighs, knowing that I couldn't do it, but I did it, holding my heart in front of him and letting him trample on me. Everything about yesterday's wedding, as a wake-up call, hit me hard.
Wake up, I won't do stupid things again in the future. Now I'm even more worried about you. You are planning to get married. I hope you will be happy in the future." Chaoli's voice was very soft.
If she remembered correctly, Song Lingxin would discuss marriage with someone in one month and get married in half a year.
If Song Lingxin married well, it wouldn't matter. The key is that the person she married was not a good person, which cost her two lives.
No matter what, let her see clearly the true face of her future husband.
Song Lingxin didn't know that it was her that Chaoli was worried about. At the moment, she just felt distressed when she heard it. She didn't even dare to think about what kind of pain Chaoli had gone through before he said these words.
"You said you let go, but do you still love him now?"
Gu Hanzhang breathed softly and his Adam's apple moved. He didn't know why it was like this today.
Today, Gu Hanzhang is a bit out of his element. First, he saw Chao Li beating a ruby jade in Shaohua Garden without investigating, then he helped her when she got off the carriage at the palace gate, and now he will do eavesdropping behavior that a gentleman cannot do. This incident
Nothing seems like something he can do.
But now, he just did it.
"It doesn't matter whether I love you or not. He is not my beloved. Ling Xin, I will make peace with him in a year. Don't make this matter public. If anyone hears about it, there may be trouble." Chao Li said.
answer.
Faced with Song Lingxin's concern, she had nothing to hide, it was just the truth.
Song Lingxin's eyes widened. She had no idea that Chaoli would be so bold. She almost wanted to shake her awake.
How can these words be said so easily?
"Ali, you are crazy! This is a marriage granted by the Queen Mother. If you propose a divorce, you will lose half your life!"
Chaoli's eyes were full of determination, "So what if I lose half my life? I have made up my mind, you don't have to worry about me. After divorce, even if I pay my hair and become an aunt, it would be better than wasting my years in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, which is a worse life."
die."
Seeing this, Song Lingxin couldn't help crying.
At this moment, the cage of bamboo outside the window suddenly made a sparse sound, and the cage of bamboo was vibrating.
