Chapter 978: Ancient Artifact

The winter afternoon wind swept through Lin Wan's pretty face, lifted the strands of hair hanging from her ears, and swept over her frowning eyebrows.

The little white tiger nestled at Lin Wan's feet moved slightly, waking up Lin Wan in a daze. She lowered her head, looked at the little thing at her feet, couldn't help but feel relieved, smiled slightly, hugged it, and suddenly felt very warm and full of tenderness.

The little white tiger opened a pair of lazy small round eyes and looked at Lin Wan quietly, and there seemed to be a faint sadness in that gaze.

Lin Wan gently stroked the soft and snow-white fur on the little white tiger's back, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Qi, are you missing your mother?"

The little white tiger didn't answer, but lowered his eyes and drilled into Lin Wan's arms again.

Lin Wan smiled slightly, lowered his head, and whispered in his ear: "The day after tomorrow, I'll take you back to see it, okay?"

The little white tiger found a more comfortable position in Lin Wan's arms, closed his eyes, and planned to take a nap.

Lin Wan chuckled helplessly and shook his head, secretly saying that he was too ridiculous, after all, it was a tiger, how could it really understand human speech? sighed, continued to talk to himself, and muttered: "In a few days, I will also go to find my mother, and I miss her too......

After sitting for a while, Lin Wan got up and walked out of the dining room and walked towards Tingyu Building. Wang Qi arranged the recipe for dinner outside, Lin Huixin was different from everyone, and had to make a separate one. There are not many ingredients in Tingxi Liyuan, but they are very fresh, Wang Qi has drawn up a nutritious menu for everyone with the existing ingredients, and tries to take into account everyone's tastes.

Seeing Lin Wan come out, after Wang Qi finished explaining his work, he immediately followed and asked in a low voice, "Miss, Xiaoqi is too heavy, can I hold it for you?"

Lin Wan shook his head lightly and said in a low voice: "I'll hold it for a while, it grows so fast, in a few days, I may really not be able to hold it, and I can't hold it if I want to." ”

Wang Qi smiled and nodded, didn't say anything more, quietly followed behind Lin Wan, and slowly walked towards Tingyu Tower.

Lin Wan went back to the room and took a nap, and when she woke up, it was already evening.

It didn't take long for Ximen Yuqing, Jin Ruoxin, Jin Haoran and Bei Xiaonan to come back, and they also brought back a person who surprised Lin Wan.

The sky was gray, Lin Wan, Lin Huixin, and Kapok Zi were sitting in the corridor on the second floor talking, only to see Ximen Yuqing, Jin Ruoxin, Jin Haoran and Bei Xiaonan slowly walking in from outside the courtyard, and Jin Ruoxin was followed by a tall woman.

At first, Lin Wan thought it was Bing'er, but he didn't care, and when he got closer, in the open area in front of Tingyu Tower, Lin Wan saw something strange.

The woman was wearing Bing'er's clothes, but she was wearing Jin Ruoxin's cloak, and the hat of the cloak covered her entire face, her head hung down, and her steps were a little heavy.

Lin Wan frowned slightly, and immediately determined that this person was not Bing'er, so where did Bing'er go? Who is this woman? Why did Jin Ruoxin bring her back? Could something have happened?

Lin Huixin saw that Bei Xiao Nan and them were back, stood up happily, and smiled at Lin Wan: "Let's go, let's go down and listen to them, and see how the wedding of the eldest prince Zhou Tianhong and the two princesses Lan Ziyue and Lan Ziling was held." ”

Lin Wan nodded, and immediately got up and took the lead downstairs. Kapok Zi supported Lin Huixin and followed behind her.

In the hall on the first floor of the Listening Rain Building, Ximen Yuqing, Bei Xiaonan, Jin Ruoxin, and Jin Haoran sat in turn, and the woman who had been keeping her head down sat in the middle of Jin Ruoxin and Jin Haoran.

Jin Haoran's eyes were always locked on the woman's body, and the eagerness and distress in his eyes revealed his thoughts, and also exposed the woman's identity.

Lin Wan strode up to the woman, held her cold little hand, and whispered, "Wei'er, is that you?"

In the dim light, the woman slowly raised her head, her face was pale, her eyes were full of tears, and there was fear and sadness in her eyes, it was the third princess Zhou Lingwei.

Zhou Lingwei looked at Lin Wan excitedly, unable to speak for a long time, holding Lin Wan's hand tightly, trembling slightly.

Lin Wan panicked in her heart and asked in a low voice, "Wei'er, has something happened?"

Zhou Lingwei bit her lower lip, suppressed the excitement in her heart, and said in a trembling voice: "Wan'er, my father has decided to make peace with Nanyue and let me marry Lan Ziheng." ”

Lin Wan was stunned when she heard this, frowned slightly, then bent the corners of her lips again, and persuaded softly: "Wei'er, you don't have to worry, let's discuss it together, the matter will definitely be resolved, don't be afraid, we will help you." ”

Jin Haoran also immediately said: "Yes, Xiaowei, I won't let you marry Lan Ziheng no matter what, I want to leave here with you." ”

Jin Ruoxin also got up and walked over, gently pulled down the hat on Zhou Lingwei's head, untied her cloak, and hung it on the back of the chair. Then he grabbed her shoulders and said softly, "Wei'er, don't be afraid, we have already brought you out, and no one can force you anymore." Haoran and I will find a way to bring you back to Dongli Kingdom, our father and mother are very enlightened people, and they will definitely not object to those whom Haoran has identified. ”

Zhou Lingwei's tears flowed, and she nodded again and again, but she couldn't speak.

Lin Wan was a little sad and angry in her heart, she didn't know what Zhou Lingwei had encountered in the palace these days. However, looking at such a strong and gentle woman, she became so weak and helpless. Lin Wan felt extremely depressed in her heart and felt deeply painful.

After appeasing Zhou Lingwei, Jin Ruoxin returned to his seat and sat down, and told Lin Wan about the situation when they met Zhou Lingwei, as well as what happened to Zhou Lingwei during this time.

At the hunting ceremony that day, Liu Fangyao said that Lan Ziheng asked Zhou Changan to marry the third princess Zhou Lingwei, and Zhou Changan did not refuse, but he did not officially accept this marriage between the two countries. Zhou Lingwei desperately opposed, but was grounded by Zhou Changan.

However, after the hunting ceremony, Zhou Chang'an received a letter from the emperor of Nanyue, Shanglan Shengtian, who once again proposed to Zhou Chang'an a marriage between the two countries, and hoped to sign a 50-year friendship agreement with the Great Feng State.

What's more, Lan Shengtian was really willing to use the "Heavenly Stone Divine Sword" as a dowry, and in order to show his sincerity, he would ask Lan Ziheng to personally escort this ancient artifact to the Great Seal Kingdom to marry the third princess Zhou Lingwei next spring.

Lan Shengtian's move meant that the South Vietnamese State was courting the Great Feudal State, and it showed that the South Vietnamese State was willing to give up its determination to dominate the world, get along with the Great Feudal State, and no longer meet each other in arms.

Therefore, after the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty of the Great Feng Kingdom knew about this, they were very shocked. Yesterday, Zhou Changan discussed the matter of peace with the ministers in the morning court, and discussed until after noon before announcing the final decision.
