Queen Flower

Jiang Lan was very happy when he was about to arrive home. Before he knew it, Jiang Lan had sincerely regarded this as his home in another world, and even Xiaobai was extremely happy.

The two left the city, and the road they passed became more and more desolate, and finally reached their home.

In the distance, in front of Wen Daolin's lonely house, two people stood. The two of them were shocked at first sight. Jiang Lan has lived here for two years and has never seen anyone visit. This is a wild place where there is no village or shop, and there is no one at home for a long time. It is very unlikely that anyone happens to pass by and ask for help. That is to say, this is a special visit?

The two slowly slowed down their horses, did not approach immediately, and sat on the horse from a distance to look at them.

These are two young women, one tall and tall in front, with narrow shoulders and narrow waist, with beautiful faces. They are wearing long pale red dresses with a slightly darker waistband of the same color. The collars, hem and cuffs of the dresses seem to have complicated sleeves. The pattern, inlaid with pearls, glitters in the sun, making it look very luxurious. The woman in the back is a little short, wearing a blue dress with a simple style and not many decorations. It seems to be a pair of master and servant, and there are two horses tied to the woods not far away.

The two men watched them come on horseback, and they didn't avoid it, it seemed that they were here specially waiting for them. Especially the woman in front, who looked up and stared at Wen Daolin, looked eager and excited.

When I got closer, I found out that the woman in front was about 25 or 6 years old, with fair skin, black hair scattered behind her, almond eyes and peach cheeks, and her eyes were excited. She was a rare beauty. Usually, he looks curious.

Jiang Lan is very puzzled, is this here to recognize relatives? It seems that the two of them don't look alike. If it's a mother, the woman in front is too young. Could it be a brother and sister?

Wen Daolin dismounted and walked towards them, Jiang Lan walked beside him, glanced at him secretly, and saw that his expression was serious.

The woman folded her hands and spread out the palm of her right hand as they approached. In her pure white palm lay half a broken jade pendant with half a blooming flower carved on the jade.

Seeing Wen Daolin froze on the spot, his expression was strange, like crying and laughing.

He reached out and took the incomplete jade pendant from her hand, and also took out half of the jade pendant from his arms, and then put the two pieces of jade pendant together in the palm of his hand.

The eyes of the four people all aimed at the two jade pendants, which were obviously supposed to be one piece. The jade was white and delicate. It looked like a good suet jade, but what caught Jiang Lan's attention was the engraving on it. A blooming Paeonia flower, shaped like a peony but slightly different. And such a flower, she had only seen that night, on the chest under Wen Daolin's clothes.

Jiang Lan turned to look at Wen Daolin, while Wen Daolin looked at Yu Pei and said nothing.

"A Ling, you are really A Ling, I finally found you." The woman grabbed Wen Daolin's hand and was very excited.

Wen Daolin retracted his hand without a trace, "Are you...?"

"Well, you definitely don't remember me." The woman blinked her slightly wet eyes, "When we separated, you were only one year old, and I hugged you when I was a child, and it has been twenty years since the blink of an eye. La."

He really came to recognize his relatives, Jiang Lan felt relieved, and always felt that the master had a complicated life experience, which seemed to be the case.

"Is this half of the jade pendant yours?" Wen Daolin looked at the woman with hesitation and alertness.

"Yes, I always carry it with me and never leave." The woman looked at him with gentle eyes like water, "I was in Nanman all these years, and I always thought you were there too. I didn't know you were in the Celestial Dynasty, but this time you came here by accident. I went to Ningcheng and found the Queen's Flower Seal in the north of the city, and then I found out about you. It took me a long time to come here. I thought I was wrong, but it turned out to be true."

Wen Daolin quietly listened to the woman's excited narration, but was very calm. Over the years, every time I entered the city, I would secretly carve a flower on the wall in the north of the city, hoping that someday people who knew Huayin would come and join me. Over the years, it has become an extravagant hope, and he has stopped fantasizing, maybe he is really the only one left here.

However, why, when such a close relative came today, he was not at all excited, unhappy, and even wanted to run away.

He looked away from the jade pendant and looked at Jiang Lan behind him.

Jiang Lan received Wen Daolin's inexplicably complicated eyes, and was a little puzzled. It seems that this sister is very good. She has been looking for him for 20 years. It's not easy to have perseverance. Isn't it the time to hug your head and cry? What does Jiang Lan do?

"A Ling, after talking so much, why don't you introduce the girl behind him?" The woman looked at Jiang Lan when he saw that he didn't speak, and looked curiously at the hat with a long curtain on her head.

Jiang Lan felt that it was very impolite to cover up in front of the master's relatives, so he took off the bamboo hat and held it in his hand, looking at the woman with a grin, "Hello, sister, I'm the master's apprentice Wen Xiaozhu. "

The woman was stunned. She was shocked by Jiang Lan's unparalleled smile on the spot. She was speechless. She never thought that there was such a beautiful face under the hat. I only felt that the woman in front of her was as beautiful as peaches and plums, as beautiful as spring flowers, even plain clothes and coarse cloth could not hide her peerless elegance. There was only a faint smile on her face, but even the air around her seemed to be stained with color.

An unknown hostility flashed in the woman's eyes, and it quickly disappeared. She stroked her hair, stood up straight, and raised her chest, "My name is Shangguan Hong, and I'm the fiancée whom your master married."

With a sound of "thump", the hat fell from his hand and rolled to the ground. Jiang Lan opened his eyes wide and looked at the high-spirited woman in front of him, and then turned to look at Wen Daolin again.

Wen Daolin stayed silent and did not say a word.

That's true, no wonder he looked at her with that look.

Jiang Lan could understand why Shangguanhong looked at her with hostility.

Think about it, she is his fiancée who is married to her fingertips. She has been searching for her fiancé for 20 years. Finally, one day she holds a token and reunites with her happily, only to find that her fiancé already has a beautiful flower beside her. A young woman, and her age is no longer glamorous.

Think about how sad it is? Isn't this Wang Baochai, who has been guarding the cold kiln for 18 years? Does Shangguan Hong look at her as if she is thinking of herself as the little princess of that princess?

But if you think about it, it's okay, if it wasn't for the **** episode a few days ago, Jiang Lan could stare at her with her head held high and no guilty conscience. She was his rightful apprentice and had done the apprenticeship ceremony. But it was precisely because their relationship went wrong, and now she couldn't fight back confidently. She felt guilty and short of breath. She really took away the rights and interests of his fiancee inadvertently. Moreover, in this era of paying attention to keepsakes, facing this real fiancée, she suddenly felt sad and uncomfortable, and there was something in her chest.

Even though she never expected them to have any results, she still couldn't accept that he was a couple in front of her eyes.

This is human greed.
