半个时辰后——
                
            

            

            
            
                “王爷，郡主并未带人回郡主府，而是直接搬去了水云间。”
                
            

            

            
            
                墨影将探查的结果汇报给了凌风朔。
                
            

            

            
            
                “嗯。”
                
            

            

            
            
                凌风朔应了一声，又问：“那蛇可查到了什么？”
                
            

            

            
            
                “蛇……”
                
            

            

            
            
                墨影闻言一顿，无奈道：“回禀王爷，现在唯一能够确定的，便是那蛇乃西域品种，有剧毒，定然不可能凭空出现，贺小姐那边，也问不出什么，只能慢慢调查……”
                
            

            

            
            
                凌风朔没再多说，挥手示意他退下。
                
            

            

            
            
                头痛欲裂。
                
            

            

            
            
                从未想过，有朝一日，他竟会面临如此失控的状况。
                
            

            

            
            
                次日——
                
            

            

            
            
                凌老夫人昏迷了一整夜，终于悠悠转醒。
                
            

            

            
            
                边上伺候的嬷嬷与侍女皆是等了一宿，一见到她醒来，便赶忙让人将准备好的餐食端了上来，又派人去喊凌风朔。
                
            

            

            
            
                可谁知老太太的脾气竟还没过去！
                
            

            

            
            
                “哗啦！”
                
            

            

            
            
                餐盘连带着碗筷狠狠摔落！
                
            

            

            
            
                刚好滚到才进门的凌风朔脚边。
                
            

            

            
            
                凌老夫人一看到凌风朔便情绪更激动了，直接怒吼：“你来做什么！”
                
            

            

            
            
                “我说了，你不与那毒妇和离！我便死给你看！！”
                
            

            

            
            
                “把这些东西都拿出去！我一口也不吃！除非你签下休书！”
                
            

            

            
            
                说罢，凌老夫人直接躺下，背对着凌风朔！
                
            

            

            
            
                竟是来真的！
                
            

            

            
            
                一屋子人都垂着头，大气也不敢出。
                
            

            

            
            
                凌风朔本想说些什么，见状神色一凛，突然便一言不发的转身！
                
            

            

            
            
                然后噗通一下，跪在了门外！！！
                
            

            

            
            
                “王爷！您这是做什么！”
                
            

            

            
            
                墨影吓了一跳，赶忙伸手去扶。
                
            

            

            
            
                还不等碰到——
                
            

            

            
            
                “传本王的令，即日起，老夫人不吃，本王也不吃！”
                
            

            

            
            
                “是……”
                
            

            

            
            
                墨影后退一步，站在了一旁，心底五味杂陈。
                
            

            

            
            
                王爷这也是铁了心不跟郡主和离，要对抗老夫人啊！
                
            

            

            
            
                不过……
                
            

            

            
            
                老夫人向来疼爱王爷，应该过几个时辰便会心软了吧？
                
            

            

            
            
                墨影想着，便陪着一起在旁边等了起来。
                
            

            

            
            
                可没想到凌老夫人这次态度竟异常的坚决！
                
            

            

            
            
                足足两天滴水未进！
                
            

            

            
            
                也未曾出来看过凌风朔一眼！
                
            

            

            
            
                这可吓坏了全府上下。
                
            

            

            
            
                每时每刻都人心惶惶。
                
            

            

            
            
                直到第三日，清晨——
                
            

            

            
            
                凌老夫人的房门依旧没有打开。
                
            

            

            
            
                红着眼眶的贺薇儿却来了。
                
            

            

            
            
                “表哥这是何必……”
                
            

            

            
            
                她站在凌风朔身后，面容憔悴，身边跟着同样满脸倦容与愤怒的赵嬷嬷。
                
            

            

            
            
                凌风朔不答。
                
            

            

            
            
                依旧跪的笔挺。
                
            

            

            
            
                贺薇儿咬着下唇，眼底闪过一丝恨意。
                
            

            

            
            
                他就当真对江云萝用情至此？！
                
            

            

            
            
                他们二人若不和离，那母亲岂不白白牺牲？！
                
            

            

            
            
                江云萝那贱人滚了，就别想再回来！！！
                
            

            

            
            
                想着，她又落下眼泪，提高了声音，更加楚楚可怜道：“表哥，眼下我母亲才刚刚离世，你又何必这样气姨母？姨母是薇儿母家最后的亲人了！若真出了什么事……”
                
            

            

            
            
                贺薇儿抽泣一声，想到亡母，泣不成声：“真出了什么事便晚了……薇儿不想失去姨母，也不想让表哥体会薇儿如今的痛苦与难过……”
                
            

            

            
            
                她话音刚落——
                
            

            

            
            
                “回去！”
                
            

            

            
            
                凌风朔沉声低吼。
                
            

            

            
            
                “表哥……”
                
            

            

            
            
                “来人！”
                
            

            

            
            
                凌风朔根本不想同她说话，直接便要叫人把她拽走！
                
            

            

            
            
                下一瞬——
                
            

            

            
            
                “凌风朔！你是不是想气死我！！！”
                
            

            

            
            
                凌老夫人的房门竟打开了！
