20. I see who dares to drink the tea he makes
Qili is the capital of Xuanqi, because of the geographical location and historical changes, the culture is diversified, and many Eastern and Western elements are very popular in Qili. Pieces of modern buildings are cut by large and small roads very neatly, everything looks full of geometric beauty, and occasionally there are retro oriental buildings standing in the middle of the landscape and pastoral, just the right embodiment of the harmony between man and nature, scattered dotted in the green mountains and green waters, very ingenious and natural taste.
"The decoration of the mountains and forests is a bit interesting, different from the common white walls and green tiles in the East, small and cute. Yan Ling pointed to the small bamboo building looming in the mountains in the distance.
Linda didn't need to look to know what Yan Ling was talking about, and said proudly: "It was built by our Majesty the Queen specifically looking for someone to build according to the appearance of the prince's hometown, and that bamboo forest is also a piece of Your Majesty's love for the prince, and this building is unique in Xuanjia." โ
Yan Ling smiled: "Her Majesty is a long-term person, and if you want to come to the princess, it must not be bad, then I can rest assured, after all, I am the one I sent, and I don't have to worry about a happy life." โ
Linda looked like a hearty person, and after listening to Yan Ling's words, she blinked slyly, "Although our princess is young, she has grown up under the care of His Majesty and the princess, and she is also very good at hurting people." โ
Yan Ling chuckled, "Oh, then I'll learn from you Princess Sanglan later, I always feel sorry for people when my husband complains, and I'm also very troublesome." โ
"Haha, Lord Ling is humble, who doesn't know that Lord Ling spoils Ge Banchen like an eyeball, compared to you, we are going to be complained to death by Mr. Linda laughed.
"......" The corners of Lu Jun's mouth twitched when he heard this, whether this is long-term affection or not, will it hurt people, usually women evaluate men! Hearing this remark at this moment is detained on a woman, it makes people feel a sense of messy confusion in the wind. Seeing that these shackles that were bound to men were happily put on themselves by the women, Lu Jun felt very weird in his heart.
"But speaking of which, this small building is like a bamboo building in Miaojiang, is Wang Fu from Miaojiang? As far as I know, there are very few people in Miao Jiang who are married to outsiders. Yan Ling said as if unintentionally.
Linda obviously didn't mean to hide it, and smiled heartily: "What Lord Ling said is right, our husband Wang is a foreign surname of the Miao family, and he grew up in Miao Jiang when he was a child. โ
"Oh, that's a coincidence, I also know some friends of Miao Jiang, know some of Miao Jiang's situation, and have the opportunity to chat with His Royal Highness Wang Fu, if I can relieve Wang Fu's homesickness a little, it can also be regarded as Yan Ling repaying Her Majesty's love. Yan Ling smiled, it was a pleasure to meet a fellow countryman in a foreign country.
Linda nodded, "Her Majesty the Queen must be happy if Lord Ling attaches so much importance to this transaction, and I wish us a happy cooperation in advance." โ
Yan Ling said peacefully: "Naturally, naturally. Then he smiled and asked, "Heh, my people went to the palace yesterday, I wonder if Princess Sanglan is satisfied?"
"Hehe, I heard that the princess was dazzled with joy. Lord Ling didn't know, since His Majesty and Wang Fu got married, the pursuit of black-haired and black-eyed Oriental men has become a trend for us to follow. Linda seemed to think of the grand scene when the prince candidate arrived in the royal city, and said quite funny.
Yan Lingguaner: "I see, I originally thought that Xuan Yi has always married with country E, and he will accept the Oriental people badly, and I am relieved that my lord said so." Hehe, the people of Yanling Countryside, I am afraid that the people who have been taught will be retreated by the princess, so my face is not good-looking. โ
Linda waved her hand and said: "You are humble, look at your bearing, the selected person will naturally not be bad, yesterday I had the honor to watch the welcome ceremony of the princess's mansion, hehe, the accompanying servants do not say, those candidates for the prince are a good one, learn from your Oriental words, what is it called, oh, Yushu Linfeng! They were greatly sought after by onlookers, and the scene was extremely spectacular." I'm not afraid of you laughing, we, the men we've seen since birth are either their own fathers, or other people's husbands, and they don't have the opportunity to contact single men, and the first time I contact men in my life is the scene of marriage. Actually, it's pitiful to say, it's good that we can have a companion, what grade do we want, when we meet an excellent single man, women are just like bees seeing honey, they can lose their minds like crazy, where do you remember what etiquette is dignified. โ
Yan Ling smiled: "Is it so exaggerated?"
Linda said helplessly, "Look at the people on this street, how many single men are there?" Hehe, so, hurry up and send your people, I can also get a husband for my poor daughter." โ
"Haha, it's easy to say, I'll hide a good one for you. Yan Ling winked playfully at Linda.
"Hahaha. It's a good feeling. Linda looked very happy, her eyes were shining, and she really wanted to look like a son-in-law.
Linda is a talkative person, talking all the way, Yan Ling didn't feel bored, seeing that the magnificent palace was in front of him, Yan Ling suddenly turned sideways and hooked his finger to Lu Jun, who was sitting quietly all the way, and said lightly: "Come here." โ
Lu Jun was stunned for a moment, what kind of moth are you going to do? Leaning slightly closer to Yan Ling, to see what she was going to say.
Yan Ling stretched out his hand, hooked Lu Jun's neck and dragged the person over.
The moment his lips met, Lu Jun's eyes widened in disbelief, he couldn't believe that he was actually waiting for Yan Ling's kiss, and he was slightly excited to hold Yan Ling's face and grasp the initiative.
Yan Ling didn't push him away, indulging Lu Jun's surging feelings.
"Hmm!" Lu Jun, who was bitten by his tongue, snorted, and the smell of blood instantly filled his mouth, Lu Jun was in pain and wanted to withdraw his tongue, but he was caught and sucked by Yan Ling, and then a stronger smell of blood filled Lu Jun's senses, and a trace of sweet and greasy taste circulated on his tongue, Lu Jun's black line, this is Yan Ling's blood?
"Alright. Yan Ling closed his eyes and panted a little to push Lu Jun away. So the two of them completed the exchange of bodily fluids under the watchful eye of Linda's large light bulb, well, at least that's what Yan Ling thinks.
Lu Jun's tongue moved in his mouth, and there was no wound, but the remaining taste of blood made Lu Jun understand that it was definitely not his delusion just now. What kind of mystery is this dead woman doing! Can't you make it clear?
Yan Ling rested for a while, opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Wait a while to restrain your temper, after all, you are a guest, and it is not good to make the host's family uncomfortable." โ
Lu Jun didn't feel how bad his temper was, at least he didn't know much better than Yan Ling. Then he pouted secretly, this is a hint that he doesn't have to endure it when he is unhappy for a while? This sentence made Lu Junfei's heart fall to the bottom again. Tsk, I thought that we had ushered in a new moment in history, but it turned out that I just moved a little trick that I didn't know what it was, and Lu Jun responded to Yan Ling in frustration.
Yan Ling frowned, is it necessary for this guy to look so heavy every day?
"Is this the Dragon Emperor?" Linda asked with some embarrassment after being fed a bunch of dog food.
Yan Ling nodded, "Well, my senior brother Lu Jun happened to accompany me to take a look when he was free recently." โ
"Are you a couple?" asked Linda.
Yan Ling rolled his eyes, these people are curious enough, is it so eye-catching for me to find someone outside?" "Why do you know about the advisor, didn't Miya report to you about my relationship with Lu Jun?"
"Hehe, I said it, but the outside world has never heard of this kind of relationship between the two of you, hehe, it's a bit of a surprise. Linda said with a smile.
Yan Ling laughed, "Which underground situation do you see blatantly, this is not my Xiaoxi is not here, and I have nothing to hide, hehe, you guys will not come to my husband to sue me, right?"
The corners of Linda's mouth twitched, "Naturally not." โ
"Well, then I'll be relieved. Yan Ling smiled and narrowed his eyes with satisfaction.
"......" still hasn't left the name of the outer house, and Lu Jun is getting more and more depressed.
The car drove into the gate of the royal city, all the personnel got out of the car according to the rules, the protocol stood on the main road, and the prince of Belรฉm, who had arrived early, was standing in front and waiting.
"Haha, girl, it's like three autumns if you don't see each other for a day!" Shang Yufeng patted Yan Ling's shoulder exaggeratedly.
Yan Ling smiled and said, "Sister, you are so enthusiastic, I'm afraid that my brother-in-law will be jealous." Yan Ling looked at the handsome man standing next to Shang Yufeng and teased Shang Yufeng.
"Hehe, Lord Ling said with a smile, I'm Geros, welcome to Xuanjiao. Geros politely saluted Yan Ling.
"Brother-in-law, you are polite, I and the prince hit it off at first sight, so don't be polite to me, call me Yan Ling or sister-in-law. Yan Ling has a face that is not polite to his own family.
"Good. Geros Sven smiled.
Yan Ling said secretly, handsome guy!, "Tsk, my sister is not shallow!" she smiled and winked at Shang Yufeng. For beauties, Yan Ling has always been stingy with praise.
Shang Yufeng laughed, took Yan Ling's hand, and enthusiastically led her to the hospitality hall.
A group of people talked as they walked, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Tan Min, Tan Min!" The originally harmonious atmosphere was interrupted by the sudden sound of messy footsteps from behind, and the voice of the shouter who was eager and excited was crisp and pleasant, with undisguised joy.
Tan Min, who was named, looked back, but it was not the little princess of Xuanyi. He glanced at Yan Ling quickly and hung his head silently.
Seeing the person, Shang Yufeng looked embarrassed, and the princess of a country rushed to the house without any grace, shouting the name of a man he didn't know in front of the public, what did it look like!
Lu Jun smiled and looked at the girl who was rushing over, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, heh, this princess is like two people in private and in diplomacy!
"Yo, who is this? Why do you call us Amin by name so affectionately? "Spring Cicai doesn't care what kind of occasion this is, he doesn't hesitate to say what he thinks, no matter if he is embarrassed or not.
Linda, as the etiquette official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for this reception, was also speechless about the little princess's actions, and hurriedly greeted her, stopped Princess Sanglan and whispered: "Your Royal Highness the princess, dignified! dignified!"
The princess obviously didn't want to listen to Linda's nagging, so she ran directly around Linda and ran to Tan Min's side, grabbed Tan Min's arm, and said shyly: "Tan Min, I like you." A pair of eyes are shy and timid, revealing the unique youth of a girl.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Tan Min's body, Tan Min only felt a flock of crows flying overhead, gently broke free of his arm, and said politely: "Your Highness, your royal husband is waiting for you in the council hall." "It means, don't pull me as an outsider to boldly confess, my young lady has carefully selected so many young talents waiting for your favor, you don't look at it, but you don't let it go, is it a intention to embarrass my young lady?
"Sang Lan, don't mess around, Mr. Tan is Lord Ling's secretary and does not participate in the Wang Fu election. Shang Yufeng scolded Princess Sanglan with a serious face, and then said to the palace maids behind him with a cold face, "What are you guys eating, why don't you hurry up and invite Your Highness to the apse to change clothes!"
"Yes. The palace maids who followed Princess Sanglan trembled for a while, and hurriedly pushed and pulled the people away.
"Tan Min, you wait for me!" Sang Lan couldn't resist many palace maids, so she could only wave her hand and shout at Tan Min.
"Hehe, Princess Sanglan turned out to be this kind of character, this is too far from the outside world, tsk, I'm afraid I've done this homework in vain, don't bake it later!" Yan Ling winked at Shang Yufeng and said with a smile.
"Uh, most of the time Sang Lan is still very normal, today should be premarital syndrome, hehe, sister, don't mind, Your Majesty will not let Sang Lan recklessly beat your secretary's idea." Shang Yufeng said embarrassedly.
Yan Ling glanced at Tan Min and said with a smile: "It's okay, it is also Tan Min's blessing to make the princess take a fancy to it." Let's go, don't let the people inside wait. โ
Shang Yufeng hurriedly said: "Exactly, please." โ
The small episode before entering the palace quickly reached the ears of Wang Fu Mu Yuanji, but he was not angry, but just smiled and said, "Oh? My little Lan'er has someone she likes, so I'll have to take a good look at it later." He said softly, but the palace maids around him were silent and didn't dare to answer.
Yan Ling bent the corners of his mouth slightly when he saw Ze Xiya, and the light flashed in his eyes, Lu Jun knew that Ze Xiya had something wrong when he saw this expression, and he immediately became alert.
Ze Xiya and Shang Yufeng are five or six points similar, but the eyebrows and eyes look a little more elegant and soft than Shang Yufeng, with the dignified and elegant upbringing of the deep palace, and every move is pleasing to the eye.
"It's a long journey, the guests have worked hard, please take a seat. Ze Xiya smiled and invited Yan Ling to take a seat.
Yan Ling didn't say anything polite to her, and sat down steadily. Because it is a royal internal affair, most of the people present today are members of the royal family, at most two or three chief assistants and important ministers to accompany them, and the total is only about 20 people.
"Tea. After everyone was seated, the internal affairs officer gave an order, and a palace maid rushed in, and delicate snacks were placed on the tea table.
"Lord Ling has come from afar, let's try our Xuanyi's special dim sum first. Ze Xiya said with a friendly expression.
"Hehe, thank you, Your Majesty, it just so happened to be empty in the lower abdomen. Yan Ling thanked him and took a piece of it that looked very good, and tasted the crystal clear pastry, a faint rose flavor bloomed on the taste buds, melted in the mouth, and the taste was very good, "Well, it tastes good." Yan Ling said in surprise.
"Hehe, this cake is called Baihua Cake, which was made by my husband himself, and Lord Ling will eat more if he likes it. Ze Xiya smiled happily.
"Oh, it turned out to be from the hand of Wang Fu, that Yan Ling was really flattered. Yan Ling said with great honor.
"Lord Ling likes Yuanji, so he can rest assured, and ask Lord Ling to appreciate his face and eat two more pieces. Outside the door, Shi Shiran walked into a thin Oriental man, his eyebrows were picturesque, his skin was fair, and his mist-white Tang costume fluttered slightly with his steps, he was really warm as jade, like a humble gentleman who walked out of the ink landscape.
"Yuanji, you're here. Ze Xiya's eyes reflected the tenderness of obsession, and she stood up and held Mu Yuanji's hand.
"Your Majesty. Mu Yuanji gently stroked Ze Xiya's hand, and raised his eyebrows to each other.
Yan Ling's eyes flashed, he stood up, bowed and saluted, "I've seen Yuanji Wangfu." โ
Mu Yuanji nodded gently and said with a smile: "You are polite, I would like to thank you for bothering about the little girl's marriage." โ
Yan Ling waved his hand, "This is as it should be, I'm not the kind of person who takes money and deals with it casually, hahaha." Yan Ling smiled, "Since everyone has arrived, let a few of them come out, Her Royal Highness the Princess can pick out a satisfactory one, and I will not live up to my mission." โ
Mu Yuanji nodded and said to Ze Xiya: "Your Majesty, then let's start, Lan'er will arrive later." โ
"Good. Ze Xiya is very gentle, it seems that she will agree unconditionally to whatever Mu Yuanji says.
"House Officer, let's begin. Ze Xiya commanded lightly.
So, the music sounded, and a row of dancing girls strode from both sides of the main hall, the sleeves of their robes fluttering, but it was a classical oriental dance.
The so-called husband selection is nothing more than physiognomy and skills, in order to prevent boredom, the court has prepared a lot of programs interspersed, but it will not make people feel bored.
"Is there a problem with this Ze Xiya?" While everyone was enjoying the dance, Lu Jun asked Yan Ling in a low voice.
Yan Ling and Ze Xiya drank a glass of wine from afar, and said with a smile: "The problem is Mu Yuanji, Ze Xiya is controlled by Mu Yuanji. โ
Lu Jun thought for a while and said, "Miao Jiang Gu Technique?"
Yan Ling nodded, "It's just a simple **, but in this way, I am afraid that Xuanji's royal power is already in the hands of Mu Yuanji." โ
Lu Jun remembered the situation of visiting the palace of Prince Belen at night, and said softly: "Listening to the meaning of Prince Belen's husband, the problem of Envy Yunzhu seems to be related to Mu Yuanji. โ
Yan Ling nodded: "It should be, it's just that judging from the appearance, it is still unknown how much this Mu Yuanji Dao is, so I will find a chance to try it later." โ
"Good. Lu Jun agreed.
After the dance, Princess Sang Lan finally arrived at the scene, and the nine candidates sent by Yan Ling also entered the scene one after another, and presented gifts made by themselves to Sang Lan to see.
Sang Lan was obviously not interested in them, she just glanced at them hastily, and then stared at Tan Min intently.
Tan Min looked at his nose and nose, but he didn't see it.
Mu Yuanji naturally saw Tan Min and smiled slightly.
The man looked gentle, but his smile gave him goosebumps. Chun Ci rubbed his arms and said softly to Yan Ling.
Yan Ling glanced at Chun Ci and said faintly, "Your intuition is good." โ
"Heh, it's not for nothing that I've followed you for so many years. Chun said proudly.
"Snort. Yan Ling smiled and shook her head, this girl is not modest at all.
"Oriental people are good at tea art, I haven't tasted authentic kung fu tea for a long time, why don't you make a pot of tea for everyone to taste." Mu Yuanji suddenly spoke.
"Great goodness. Yan Ling also smiled and agreed.
"Father, I want him to soak me. Sang Lan suddenly pointed at Tan Min and said.
"This?" Mu Yuanji looked at Yan Ling with some embarrassment.
"Hehe, today's princess chooses a husband, Yan Ling is very careful about this, the people selected are all outstanding after several assessments, the princess might as well let them soak you to taste. As for Tan Min, heh, he is not among them, I am afraid that he will not be able to agree to the princess's request. Lu Jun replied with a smile.
Mu Yuanji was stunned, and then looked like he couldn't meet his beloved daughter's requirements and was in a dilemma. "Lan'er is obedient, you see these good children are very good......"
Sang Lan pouted, and said pitifully: "Father, I just want Tan Min, you can talk to Lord Ling~" Mu Yuanji was interrupted by Sang Lan before he finished speaking.
Mu Yuanji looked at Ze Xiya in embarrassment, "Your Majesty, look." โ
Where is Ze Xiya willing to embarrass Mu Yuanji, what etiquette, political and diplomatic demeanor stand behind in front of Mu Yuanji. She patted Mu Yuanji's hand, turned her head to look at Yan Ling, and said very politely: "Lord Ling, I'm sorry, the little girl is used to being pampered, but you and I originally meant friendly trade, and you can see if you can be accommodating in this matter." Although Tan Min is not in the selection, it is still your person, Sang Lan is the orthodox heir of my Xuan, and marrying Tan Min is not a grievance Tan Min, not to mention that Sang Lan loves him wholeheartedly, the two of them will be happy in the future, and our relationship can be one step closer, why not, or you will think about it again?"
Listening to Ze Xiya's words, Yan Ling was silent as if he was thinking, but Lu Jun put down the teacup and said with a smile: "There is always a charter for talking about business, if anyone wants to do what they want, this business is too casual to talk about, and it will damage the reputation of the Xuanqi Women's Country, which is really unwise." Moreover, Tan Min is Yan Ling's right-hand man, how can he exchange it for benefits, His Majesty's statement is a bit difficult for a strong man, Yan Ling is Tan Min's boss, and he has always been a polite and virtuous corporal, how can he do this kind of thing without putting human dignity in his eyes. โ
Ze Xiya frowned slightly, thought for a while and said, "What Lu Ye said is reasonable, why don't we ask Tan Min's opinion?"
Lu Jun smiled, turned his head and asked, "In that case, Tan Min, what do you think?"
Tan Min naturally remembered what Lu Jun had said to him on the plane, and said with a slight sigh: "Princess Yushu Zhilan, Tan Min is humble, and he really doesn't dare to climb high." โ
Lu Jun said with a smile: "In this case, we can only thank Your Majesty for your kindness." โ
Ze Xiya frowned and did not speak.
At this time, a slightly fat woman sitting on the right side of the lower hand sneered and said: "Hmph, it's just a man, our princess has taken a fancy to him and promoted him, why, with the dignity of our princess, is he not worthy of him?"
Lu Jun raised his eyebrows, and was about to take advantage of this guy, but was held down by Yan Ling. "What if I don't want to?" Yan Ling looked at the man and asked lightly.
"Oh, it's better not to hold your head high under the eaves. The woman sneered.
"Hu Siyu, didn't you take medicine when you went out today?" What nonsense!" Shang Yufeng said with a frosty face.
"Prince Belen, I heard that you and Lord Ling had a very happy meeting and discussion, why, so quickly they have negotiated the conditions to form a united front?" said the fat woman Hu Siyu in a weird manner.
"Heh, why don't you just make a cup of tea? Yan Ling suddenly smiled, turned his head to Tan Min and said, "Since Princess Sanglan has promoted you like this, you should go and serve once." โ
Tan Min naturally didn't brush Yan Ling's face, and lowered his head slightly: "Yes." As he spoke, he got up and took out the tea set, boiled water to cook tea, and a set of actions was as pleasing to the eye as flowing water.
"Please taste it. With the mist and the fragrance of tea, Tan Min picked up the tea cup and politely handed it to Sang Lan.
"Hehe, you're so good-looking. Sang Lan stared at Tan Min for a long time, and was about to pick up the tea cup after saying a word happily.
"I see who dares to drink the tea he makes. A cold, lazy female voice came from outside the hall.
Everyone turned their heads to look, Yan Ling's eyes were shining, and the corners of his mouth were hooked with a beautiful arc, and the show was finally about to be staged.
"Envy Yun Major General Zhu!" Hu Siyu stood up and said with an ugly face.
A tall woman, dressed in a dark military uniform, walked into the hall proudly, her delicate eyes and eyebrows slightly revealed the coldness of calm and iron-blooded, but she was not the famous daughter of Belen.
