1692: Arrangement 2

Arrangement 2

"The Snow Territory is different from the Saint Divine Land, where the King, lords and princes are allowed to have many women. The Head of the Snow Territory can only have one wife." Ouyang Mingjing said to Gu Chaoyan confidently, "So, I can't help you with this."2

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

She was here to discuss this issue which was actually a favor. She should respect Ouyang Mingjing's intention. So she had to drop it when he turned her down.

Ouyang Mingjing gave a thorough explanation and that was already the most he could do.

Gu Chaoyan had no reason to ask anything more.

She looked at Sword One and told her to bring Qing to her side, before saying to Ouyang Mingjing, "Sorry for the trouble, Head."

Ouyang Mingjing shook his head, smiling.

Gu Chaoyan left the court with Sword One and Qing.

Qing was in a bad mood, so she asked Lingyun to share the wagon with her, while she boarded another wagon. She said, "Qing should not work in the clinic when we go back home. Take her to the temple where she can stay in the vacant yard. The temple is quiet and very far from us. Qing can stay there on her own and reflect on what she has done."

"…"

"Ouyang Mingjing turned us down, and he will not accept Qing despite my request. So this whole matter is not going to happen. Qing should learn to release her feelings for him too," Gu Chaoyan said emotionally.

Gu Chaoyan would be equally emotional if Ouyang Mingjing accepted Qing. Because no matter what Ouyang Mingjing said in the end, it would not be a good end for Qing.

It was a doomed relationship.

Ouyang Mingjing's identity wasn't the main problem. What mattered was that Ouyang Mingjing himself wasn't a good suitor, as a person!

One wagon pulled over at Xinlin Mansion. Gu Chaoyan went off and asked Sword One to go into the other, to keep Qing company to the temple.

Gu Chaoyan went into the mansion unhappily, as the wagon continued.

Xiu Jie followed, when she walked into the mansion. "Elder Miss, where are the rest of the people? Should I serve you some tea?"

Gu Chaoyan had not told Xiu Jie what happened during the past few days in detail, but Xiu Jie had some knowledge of what was going on.

Xiu Jie should not need to get involved with Qing's affairs, but…

She could see how much Xiu Jie cared about Qing.

She knew that she had to tell Xiu Jie the truth, in detail.

However, before anything was settled, she did not reveal a thing. Until today, when she could tell what the future would be like.

"They are heading to the temple. Come with me, I have a few things to say to you." Gu Chaoyan led the way.

Xiu Jie nodded in understanding.

Gu Chaoyan took a walk with him in the mansion. The Immortal Flowers were in the mansion, but they looked very bald now that the flowers were not blooming. Nevertheless, that was when silence dominated.

"Qing fell for Mr. Ouyang, and wanted to be with him. We went into the court and asked him about this, but he turned us down. So I brought her back. Qing was in a very bad mood, so I decided to let her stay at the temple for the moment. If you have time, you can visit her there."
