Part 1: A Dream Within A Dream / Rebirth of Ill Fated Concubine

Chapter 107 Slander

Dong Ying'er was stunned and shook her head. Chang'an was her childhood sweetheart. She thought they would live like this for the rest of their lives, which was not bad. 

However, since she met that god-like man three years ago, she no longer had anyone else in her eyes. Now she understands that it was not love for Chang'an at all.

Dong Ying'er's restless look fell into Jiang Ruan's eyes, and Jiang Ruan couldn't help but think in her heart, could it be that Dong Ying'er fell in love with someone else. Just now, she seemed to think of something, and the upturned corners of her mouth looked like the shyness of a girl thinking of her beloved?

She was shocked in her heart. Why, is this different from the previous life?

Dong Ying'er seemed to remember something, and suddenly looked up at Jiang Ruan, and asked casually: "Sister Ruan, speaking of it, your elder brother has won consecutive battles. Has he written to you this year and said when he will come back?"

Jiang Ruan was stunned, but ignored Zhao Jin's strange look on the side, and her body suddenly stiffened. Could it be... 

She looked at Dong Ying'er, as if to confirm what she was thinking. Dong Ying'er looked at her, and her bright eyes were filled with unconcealed expectations. That look was too familiar. In her previous life, she had seen such a look in the bronze mirror countless times. It was the admiration for her lover.

Dong Ying'er's crush was Jiang Xinzhi!

This life basically followed the previous life, but her arrival caused many changes in things, such as Dong Ying'er in front of her. Dong Ying'er, who had a deep affection for Chang An in the previous life, actually fell in love with Jiang Xinzhi in this life. Since this thing has changed, what about other things?

Seeing that Jiang Ruan was a little absent-minded, Lin Zixiang pushed her: "What are you thinking about? Don't say anything."

"Oh," Jiang Ruan smiled and said, "It's okay, my brother didn't send a letter."

A trace of disappointment flashed in Dong Ying'er's eyes. Jiang Ruan saw it and became more certain of her guess. For some reason, she felt uneasy. This feeling came inexplicably, and she herself didn't understand why. 

Lin Zixiang frowned: "If Ying'er gets married, I'm afraid it will be my turn soon. My father has been asking me about this recently. I really don't know what to do." 

Jiang Ruan pondered for a moment and smiled: "Did Lord Lin reveal any news?" 

Lin Zixiang has always been a person who doesn't care about the secular perspective, so she is not so shy: "No, but I saw him frowning recently, so I think it must be not going well. I said it earlier, with my personality, it is really difficult to find a family in Capital that is well-matched and tolerant." 

Jiang Ruan frowned slightly. ... 

Canaan Mountain is covered with snow all year round. The mountains are high and the valleys are deep. Even in summer, it still looks like the ice and snow have just begun to melt. The mountain stream flows slowly with broken ice, washing the brightly coloured pebbles on both sides. 

The pine forest was covered with sparkling ice crystals, and at first glance, it looked like the scenery of the north.
Xiao Shao walked through the plum blossom formation at the foot of the mountain and headed for the Green Poplar Villa on the top of the mountain.

The plum blossom formation was set up by Mr. Yaqi himself. There were eight rings in total, extending from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. Except for the disciples of this sect, outsiders could not break the formation. Xiao Shao had been here many times and was familiar with the route.
