Now that you're reborn, who would still keep a mistress for their scumbag husband?
Chapter 5: Prince Jinglan
In her previous life, Dou Miaojin had only seen Yanzhijian's back once, but that glance was very impressive.
Before Dou Miaojin could finish her words, Lu Changyuan had already rushed out on his horse.
But the other side had eight rare Ferghana horses. After Lu Changyuan left the city gate, he could no longer see any trace of them and had no idea which direction they went.
He couldn't help feeling discouraged.
Dou Miaojin abandoned the carriage and rode over at full speed to comfort Lu Changyuan, "Brother Changyuan, don't worry, this is a good thing. Since Yanzhijian is in the capital, we can't find her, but as long as we find Hongran, it will be fine."
Lu Changyuan lowered his eyes, "Are you sure you can find Hong Ran?"
Dou Miaojin was full of confidence, "Of course, could it be that Brother Changyuan doesn't believe me?"
That figure was deeply imprinted in Lu Changyuan's mind. At this moment, seeing Dou Miaojin's heroic figure on horseback, although not comparable to Yanzhi Jian, at least, it was much better than Dou Jinzhao who was struggling in the backyard.
Lu Changyuan smiled, "Of course I believe you. Where are you going to take me to find Miss Hongran?"
Fengye Tinghai is located in Jiming Mountain, a hundred miles east of the capital. Entering from the mountain gate, there are twists and turns, and numerous houses are hidden in the sea of pine waves and fog.
A group of eight riders dismounted in front of the mountain gate. Dou Jinzhao threw away the reins and walked towards the person who came to pick her up. "I am flattered to be greeted by Master Jinglan himself!"
Ling Jinglan wore half a mask, revealing a pair of peach blossom eyes that were hooked inward and outward, lips that were not dyed red, and a clear and sharp jawline. When he looked at people, he always gave people a kind of affectionate look, which made people ignore the fact that he never showed his true face to others.
Ling Jinglan smiled and walked up the mountain with her. "If you don't have the decency to come pick you up in person, I'll be the one who's worried!"
After walking a few steps, Dou Jinzhao became impatient, "I told you to build Fengye Tinghai at the foot of the mountain, but you didn't listen. Not to mention how much extra money it cost, it's so troublesome every time you come here."
Ling Jinglan brushed off the non-existent dust on his wide sleeves. "How many times have you come here? If I remember correctly, this is only the second time!"
Dou Jinzhao argued with him as they walked, "It's so hard to come up here, why should I make it so hard on myself?"
Ling Jinglan glanced at her and said, "Okay, I was wrong! Don't you think it's tiring to talk about it every time we meet? You and your wife agreed to come together today, so why didn't you come together?"
He carefully tried to see her expression, but her face was hidden under a black veil.
Dou Jinzhao casually plucked a wild flower from the roadside, pinched it with two fingers and turned it, "I came here today to collect the favor I owed you. I saved your life, remember?"
Ling Jinglan sneered, "You remember this kind of thing very clearly. How do you plan to ask me to pay it back?"
"I only remember what others owe me! Don't worry, I won't ask for too much."
Ling Jinglan took her to the Moon-Chasing Platform. The sea of fog rolled and undulated in the valley. The midday sun shone on it, making it golden. The mountain top not far away appeared bright, like a fairyland in a fantasy.
No one dared to come in here, so Ling Jinglan had to make tea for her herself. "Go ahead, even if you ask for a lot, there's no need to be embarrassed. This is not the first time you've done this."
Dou Jinzhao held the tea bowl and sniffed the fragrance. "Dou Miaojin eloped with Xiliang Prince Tuoba Yu. When she arrived in Weizhou, she went crazy for some reason and suddenly hooked up with Lu Changyuan. The two of them teamed up to trick Tuoba Yu. You should know this better than me."
Ling Jinglan did not comment, but raised his chin, motioning her to continue.
"Lu Changyuan has two Xiliang spies and 500 Xiliang stallions. I want to know the identities of the two Xiliang spies. Also, I want the 500 stallions, because my Changliu Mountain horse farm is in need of stallions."
Ling Jinglan glanced sideways, her peach blossom eyes were blurry and she looked a bit rogue, "Are you planning to trick Lu Changyuan? Have you forgotten that he is your husband?"
There is nothing in this world that Feng Ye Ting Hai cannot find out. Nothing in this world can escape the eyes of Master Jing Lan, and there is no information that cannot be bought from Feng Ye Ting Hai.
Dou Jinzhao was too lazy to play Tai Chi with him, "Just tell me if you have any specific information. If not, I'll find someone else."
This provocation worked well for Ling Jinglan. "As you wished, one of the two Xiliang spies was indeed Tuoba Yu. He concealed his identity, and Lu Changyuan didn't find out."
Dou Jinzhao was about to ask if Dou Miaojin didn't recognize Tuoba Yu, but he laughed at himself and thought, if she had made up her mind to elope with him, how could she not recognize him!
"Do you think Dou Miaojin will find a way to get Lu Changyuan to release Tuoba Yu?" Dou Jinzhao thought. Dou Miaojin did not tell Lu Changyuan about Tuoba Yu's identity. She must be afraid that Tuoba Yu would tell everyone about her elopement. Maybe there are other secrets.
"Would you like to lend her a helping hand in this matter?" Ling Jinglan didn't know what Dou Jinzhao was thinking for the time being. "Although the 500 stallions were in Lu Changyuan's hands on the surface, he had actually exchanged them with the Xin family of Weizhou before he left Weizhou. The 500 stallions he brought into Beijing came from the Xin family's horse farm."
Dou Jinzhao's eyes lit up, and it seemed as if two stars were shining behind the black veil.
The Xin family boarded the ship of Duke Dingguo's Mansion. In the previous life, the Xin family also sent a daughter to Beijing to be Lu Changyuan's concubine.
Seeing Lu coming, he reported at the door, "Sir, Duke Dingguo brought the second daughter of the Dou family to the mountain to buy the whereabouts of Miss Hongran."
Ling Jinglan leaned on the chair and tapped his fingers on the table. "I'll give you a chance to make the decision for Feng Ye Ting Hai. Do you want it?"
Dou Jinzhao didn't even look at him. He looked ahead and took a sip of tea. "You should know that I was the one who passed the news about Hong Ran to you. So, are you planning to change Feng Ye Ting Hai's master?"
"Dream on!" Ling Jinglan ordered Jianlu, "Five thousand taels of silver, tell them the whereabouts of Miss Hongran, and also, ask Duke Dingguo if he wants to buy some information about Miss Dou Er. We will sell it to him for one copper coin."
Dou Jinzhao kicked Ling Jinglan and said, "Don't ruin my good deeds, or I will make sure you don't see the sun tomorrow morning."
Ling Jinglan did not dodge. Dou Jinzhao's kick was quite powerful. He leaned over to rub his leg. Dou Jinzhao turned his face away and said, "Are you missing an arm or a leg? Do you want to scam me? Are you deliberately not avoiding my move?"
"You just want to vent your anger. If I avoid you, I'll give you another chance to use my ultimate move." Ling Jinglan leaned forward to look at her face. "Why, you don't plan to live together anymore? Didn't you always say you were destined to be married and be childhood sweethearts? Dou Miaojin has been poisoned by love, are you really going to let Hongran detoxify her and help them be together?"
Dou Jinzhao stood up and glanced at Ling Jinglan, "When can you take off this ghost mask on your face? It's so ugly. No matter if your face is a Yaksha or Shura, there is nothing that cannot be repaired with me here. Do you want to consider it?"
Ling Jinglan stood up as she farted, "Before asking others' names, introduce yourself first. If you want to see my face, show yours first."
