Three families hire each other, the mistress of the marquisate accidentally offends the treacherous

She lowered her head, a strand of black hair spread out from her shoulders, passed over her slender neck, and fell on her side in an arc.

It was very obvious against the lily-colored pajamas.

Dong Lingyan's body felt a little stiff, his Adam's apple rolled, and the area around his lips felt dry. He subconsciously walked towards her and stopped in front of her.

Suddenly, Jiang Qingyue felt a shadow cast down and blocked a large area of ​​light, and her breathing couldn't help but stop.

He was a head taller than her, and the distance between them was barely a finger's length. When he looked down at her, she inexplicably felt a sense of oppression from a superior being.

She calmed herself down and tried not to lose her composure. She still looked calm, but her ears were slightly red from nervousness.

He looked at her pink earlobes, as cute as a furry little rabbit.

He moved a little closer, trying to see it more clearly, and a faint fragrance wafted into his nose. He couldn't tell what it was, but it smelled extremely good.

It also carries the scent of water mist after a shower, like the fresh sweet candy of flowers and plants after the rain, refreshing.

He bent down and picked the person up horizontally.

"Ah..." Jiang Qingyue cried softly and put her hands on his neck.

"General."

Noticing the stiffness of her body, Dong Lingyan curled his lips slightly.

He strode towards the bed.

Jiang Qingyue caught sight of the green gauze tent out of the corner of her eye and lowered her eyes slightly.

Since she went to the general's mansion last night, she had already thought it through, convinced herself, and foreseen this scene.

However, when this incident really happened again, I still felt a little uncomfortable.

But no matter how difficult it was, she had to make it pass.

Jiang Qingyue lowered her eyes, not wanting Dong Lingyan to see that she was ready to die.

She chose her own path, and she will keep going no matter how difficult it is.

Dong Lingyan walked to the bed and stopped, bent down slightly, and put her closer on the bed.

His movements were light, even gentle. Jiang Qingyue raised her head and looked at Dong Lingyan.

The story about Dong Lingyan came to my mind.

He used to be the eldest son of the Grand Historian's mansion in the imperial court. Although the Grand Historian was not prominent in the capital, he still had a place to hold.

My maternal grandfather's Dongling family was harmed by a villain, and the entire Dongling Mansion was burned down and no one survived.

His mother fell seriously ill and died before he could remember anything.

My father remarried, and the new mistress gave birth to two sons in three years. With the help of her parents' family, within five years, outsiders only knew about my stepmother's children and had no idea that there was an older son in the house.

There was almost no news about this eldest son in the capital. Later, it was heard that he had traveled thousands of miles to join the army.

After escaping death many times, he made great military achievements, became the commander of an army, and was named a mighty general by the emperor.

However, he did not expect that the first thing he did after returning to the capital and being appointed as a general was to sever his father-son relationship with the Grand Historian's Mansion at the welcoming banquet that the Grand Historian's Mansion had painstakingly prepared for him, and to take his mother's surname, Dongling.

No one knew what happened that day. They only heard that Taishi Ling and Dong Lingyan talked in the study for half an hour. When Dong Lingyan left, Taishi Ling had a guilty look on his face and agreed to let him leave the family tree and take his mother's surname.

The news soon spread throughout the capital and became a hot topic among the common people.

Many people say that Dong Lingyan is ungrateful and has forgotten his roots after receiving the emperor's favor.

Some people also said that it was the stepmother who abused Dong Lingyan, and her level of cruelty was horrible.

Some people also said that the stepmother was so crazy that she wanted to give Dong Lingyan to a eunuch with special hobbies. Dong Lingyan had no other choice but to escape, and by chance she joined the army...

Half a month later, Dong Lingyan personally led people to raid the entire household of Tai Shi Ling, as well as the entire household of his stepmother's family.

The charges ranged from oppressing the people to accepting bribes, totaling as many as thirty. The emperor was furious and sentenced the two families to death three days later.

Dong Lingyan left the Grand Historian's Mansion and has been in the army for many years. After investigation, it was found that he had no connection with the crimes committed by the Grand Historian's Mansion and was not guilty.

When the incident happened, the side branch came to Dong Lingyan and asked him to find a way to save the people. It was the stepmother and her family who did it, and it had nothing to do with his father and brothers.

Dong Lingyan said: "I have no father or brothers." He was criticized.

The truth was soon revealed and hundreds of people from the two governments were all beheaded.

The entire capital city was secretly condemning Dong Lingyan for being disrespectful, unfilial, heartless, ungrateful and conscienceless.

Later, Dong Lingyan somehow became the head of the Sansi Yamen, in charge of matters that other yamen could not handle, cases that they could not investigate, and people that they could not kill.

Anyone who enters this yamen will be skinned alive if not killed.

No matter who it is, as long as they are involved with the Sansi Yamen, no good will happen. In the capital, from the common people to the officials, no matter who mentions Dong Lingyan, they will be afraid.

Not only was he highly regarded by the emperor, he was also ruthless and ruthless in his actions.

The first time Jiang Qingyue was sent to the General's Mansion, she couldn't accept it after knowing that the other party was Dong Lingyan. Part of it was because she felt wronged, part of it was because of shame and anger, and part of it was because of fear.

After being reborn and returning to these things, she was still afraid, but she knew in her heart that compared with what she had to do, the revenge she had to take, and the people she had to protect, this fear was not that important.

Moreover, for her, what is really scary are the ghosts and monsters around her. Compared with those evil spirits that eat flesh and leave no bones, Dong Lingyan is not that scary.

"What? Are you scared?" Noticing her gaze, Dong Lingyan also looked over.

"I'm not afraid." She answered softly, her words clear.

She just felt that she was still a little uncomfortable.

In this kind of matter, from the first time on, Dong Lingyan has always cared about her feelings. Last night she no longer resisted and didn't even feel any pain.

Putting aside other things, based on how Dong Lingyan interacted with her, she didn't have a bad impression of Dong Lingyan.

Dong Lingyan paused slightly, then looked at her with a slight smile on his face.

He just lay on his side beside her, with his right hand slightly bent, his head supported by his elbow, and looked down at her with a smile.

He is not a lustful person, but she has the ability to make him impulsive.

"If you are afraid, you can tell me. Although I will not leave, I will try to be gentler."

His tone was half-smile and full of teasing.

"No, I just feel uneasy about meeting the general here."

"Oh, why are you so nervous? Xue Feimu is in the land of comfort and won't come over."

Dong Lingyan didn't care about Jiang Qingyue's words, but he showed no mercy in exposing her predicament.

The husband I waited for for three years didn't even come to the main courtyard after returning home.

He thought that when he arrived he would see her crying and looking resentful, but he was wrong.

"I don't want him to come either. The general knows that. Why mock me?"

Jiang Qingyue curled her lips, looking a little aggrieved, but not because of her current situation in the Marquis' Mansion, but because Dong Lingyan misunderstood her.

Dong Lingyan's heart was moved by her look, and he reached out to touch her hair:

"Do you like the gift I gave you today?"

"It's a gift from the general, so of course I like it." She lowered her head slightly, a blush appearing on her face.

She couldn't remain indifferent when such a private gift was given to her in public.

Dong Lingyan was slightly distracted when he saw her like this.

The room suddenly became quiet, but the atmosphere remained harmonious.

After a long while, he asked:

"Why didn't you drink the contraceptive soup?"

"Qingyue wants to have the general's child."

She drank it, but she didn't drink the one he prepared.

She has learned the skill of telling lies very well.

Dong Lingyan paused, then looked at her with a gloomy look:

"Aren't you afraid of death?"

Jiang Qingyue raised her head slightly, with a naive look like a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger:

"Don't be afraid. What's more, the general will protect me and will make sure that mother and son are safe."

Her words, with their reckless willfulness, have the beauty of something growing wildly, yet in a controllable way.

Her eyes told him: As long as he didn't want to, she would obey him.

Dong Lingyan's eyes met hers and he looked at her for a long while before he spoke:

"Do you know what your situation would be like in the Marquis' Mansion if you really had a child?"

Jiang Qingyue did not dodge or avoid, she looked at him with bright eyes and nodded:

"Yes, according to my understanding of the old lady, she will let me die quietly and find a child from a marquis's mansion to replace the crown prince."

"You dare to do it knowing that."

"I dare, because I want to."

The two of them exchanged words, their tone somewhat tense, but with a hint of flirting.

After a moment of stalemate, Dong Lingyan looked at her and suddenly smiled:

"You're more interesting than Ben will ever know."

Jiang Qingyue replied: "The general is more charming than Qingyue thought."

"Do you know how outsiders see me?"

"Qingyue only knows the general she saw, and the general treated me very well."

"Hahaha……"

Dong Ling smiled happily, moved his hand from her hair to her wrist, held her hand, and measured her slender wrist with his fingers.

"I originally thought you were a little mouse, but I didn't expect you to be so bold. This time, I was wrong."

Jiang Qingyue looked at him and smiled:

"How do you like it, General?"

Facing those eyes that were clearly black and white, reflected by the light and rippling with autumnal waves, Dong Lingyan cursed in his heart.

He directly pushed the hand he had just grabbed onto the bed, interlocked his fingers, lowered his head and kissed her lips...

"Well……"

As he moved, the bed curtains shook with a slight sound. Jiang Qingyue was kissed so hard that she couldn't help but let out a soft moan. It was so charming and alluring...

The curtains were lowered, and the temperature in the room rose suddenly. When only the cloud-colored belt was left hanging on her shoulders, Jiang Qingyue was already a little confused.

Dong Lingyan is a master at flirting. As long as she doesn't resist this kind of thing, she will be happy.

He lifted her chin with his index finger, "You want to?"

Jiang Qingyue looked at him with misty eyes without saying a word. She leaned forward and kissed his lips, answering with her action.

However, just as I got closer, a voice came from outside:

"Sir, the lady has gone to bed."

Lu Huan's slightly raised voice came from outside the house, with a hint of urgency.

"It's okay, I'll just go in and say a few words and then leave."

Xue Feimu said as he pushed open the door.

He originally didn't plan to come, but Chu Wan'er said that since he was back, he should come to the main courtyard to take a look.

He also remembered that the old lady said that the prince's wife is not only the mistress, but also has to do some things even if she is doing them for outsiders to see. Otherwise, it would be inappropriate for him to get the reputation of favoring a concubine and neglecting his wife.

That's why he came.

The room was filled with the fragrance of white plum blossoms, and a window was open.

The object is simple and elegant, and looks a bit like a woman's boudoir.

This was his first time here. Thinking of Jiang Qingyue's words today that she would like to leave, he couldn't help but take another look at her.

"Is the lady asleep?"

Xue Feimu remembered to keep himself clean and stopped in front of the door of the inner room.

But he felt it was not good to stand at the door, so he lifted his robe and sat down on the chair next to him.

The chair was diagonally opposite the bed curtains.

"My husband is here."

When Jiang Qingyue called out the name, the bed curtains moved slightly.

"Ah."

Xue Feimu felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. He looked towards the bed.

"Since you are asleep, there is no need to get up. I will come over to say a few words and then leave."

"Husband...please speak."

"In the past few years, I've been grateful to Wan'er for taking care of me. Now that she's back home with me, you should take better care of her in the future. This is her first time in the capital, and she doesn't know much about the rules of the capital. You should take care of her, and if she does anything wrong, you should teach her."

"Yes."

"She has done a lot for me. I promised her that I would compensate her when I return home. From tomorrow on, you two will take care of the household together. Don't be shy. As the mistress, she won't do that. Just be patient and teach her. I will also help others."

"Yes."

"Although Wan'er is from the border, she is kind and considerate. I didn't plan to come today, but she persuaded me for a long time. You must remember her kindness."

"……Yes."

Xue Feimu looked towards the bed suspiciously.

He had thought of many excuses before coming, but none of them seemed to be of any use.

Jiang Qingyue was easier to talk to than he had imagined.

That being the case, it was even better, as it would save him some effort and trouble.

If Jiang Qingyue performed well, he wouldn't mind giving her some face and letting her spend the rest of her life in peace in the mansion.

"That's all. I'm leaving now. You should have a good rest."

"Walk slowly."

Xue Feimu stood up and was about to walk out, but when he reached the door, he stopped and looked back. He wanted to say something but didn't, and just left.

"Squeak", the sound of a door closing came from outside.

Then came the sound of footsteps:

"Your Majesty, walk slowly."

Before Lu Huan finished her words, the bed curtains in the room shook violently, Dong Lingyan turned over, looked out the window, and said mockingly:

"I've seen shameless people before, but this is the first time I've seen someone so shameless. Is this the first time you've seen one?"

Jiang Qingyue looked at him with a smile:

"I said that the general is the most upright person in the world."

Dong Lingyan's heart moved slightly, and he saw her waving her hand casually:

"If he wasn't so despicable and shameless, how could the general's wisdom and bravery be highlighted? If the general feels sorry for Qingyue, then let him serve in the Imperial Household Department."

The Imperial Household Department was the institution in charge of the eunuchs in the palace during the Zhou Dynasty.

He is a fourth-rank official, but he has no power and a bad reputation.

Generally, children of wealthy families would not hold this position.

To be in charge of a group of eunuchs would be a lifelong shame if it were made known to others. It would be one thing for a civil official to be in charge, but for Xue Feimu, a military general, to be given such an official position would be extremely insulting.

Xue Feimu must have some duties to do when he comes back this time.

Originally, what they and Dong Lingyan wanted was a position in the Ministry of War, even if it was a lower position.

Now, Jiang Qingyue has found a "good position" for him.

Dong Lingyan heard Jiang Qingyue's words and smiled lightly, wanton and evil:

"Just to my liking."

As he spoke, he lowered his whole body, almost sticking to her, and breathed ambiguously:

"You just called him husband."

"I won't call you anymore." Jiang Qingyue answered very tactfully, and the hand that was wrapped around his neck quietly touched the back of his ear to comfort him.

Dong Lingyan groaned, and grabbed her waist with his big hands:

"Then you better remember it."

"Um... General..."
