Chapter 1578: Haunting Dreams
Lin Wan smiled and nodded, since the purpose had been achieved, she didn't want to say anything more, picked up the tea bowl, took a sip gently, and the meaning of sending off the guest was very obvious.
Lan Ziheng frowned slightly, a little dissatisfied with Lin Wan's attitude, but it was inconvenient to blame, so he had to pretend not to see it, and said word by word: "I hope that Princess Wan will help Prince Ben develop an antidote as soon as possible, and the day when Prince Wan recovers completely will be the time when Princess Wan returns home safely." ”
Lin Wan didn't care, and said lightly: "His Royal Highness Prince Lan, please rest assured, Wan'er will naturally do her best." As for returning home, I'm no longer so obsessed. If I come, I can return to China, maybe His Royal Highness Prince Lan may not be able to be the master. ”
"You!" Lan Ziheng was so angry by Lin Wan's words that he stood up, but after thinking about it, he was powerless to refute it. Now Lin Wan's stay is up to the national teacher, even if Lan Ziheng ascends the throne as the emperor in the future, he may not be able to become the master of the national teacher, let alone be the enemy of the national teacher for Lin Wan.
Lan Ziheng said that, originally wanted to urge Lin Wan to develop an antidote for him as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that Lin Wan would not give him face at all, and bluntly said that he could not fulfill his promise, and Lin Wan still didn't care about his promise.
Lin Wan smiled slightly and continued: "Life here is calm and free, I am also used to it, whether I can go back or not, it really doesn't matter that much." ”
Lan Ziheng's face was slightly pale, and he came down the steps given by Lin Wan, nodded, and said: "The emperor of the Great Feudal Kingdom has been sick for more than a year, and now although the eldest prince is temporarily in charge of government affairs, the situation is still unstable. If you go back now, you might as well stay here, at least you're absolutely safe here. ”
Lin Wan smiled faintly and did not refute Lan Ziheng's words. Although Lan Ziheng was right, he deliberately ignored one point. That is, Lin Wan is already the future crown princess of Xiling Kingdom, even if Lin Wan leaves Nanyue Kingdom, she will have to go back to Xiling Kingdom, where she has the protection of Ximen Yuqing.
However, to be honest, Lin Wan really didn't want to go back to Xiling Kingdom, although there was Ximen Yuqing there to protect her, and besides, Ximen Yuqing would not force her to do anything. However, facing Ximen Yuqing's tenderness all day long, Lin Wan would have a sense of guilt in her heart, feeling that she was a liar who played with her feelings.
Of course, the place Lin Wan wants to go to the most is still by Zhou Tianqi's side. Even if he lives in the barracks with him, even if he accompanies him to fight on the battlefield, even if he sleeps in the open air, and the rain of bullets, Lin Wan is also willing.
However, Lin Wan couldn't say it, and he didn't even dare to think about it, for fear that he would think too much during the day and wouldn't be able to sleep at night. As soon as she closed her eyes, she saw the face that haunted her, and accidentally let that face fall asleep, and when she woke up, she was wet with tears.
Lan Ziheng saw that Lin Wan stopped talking, thinking that he had said what was on her mind, smiled slightly, didn't say anything more, turned around and walked out of the room.
It was past noon, and not long after Lan Ziheng left, Lan Ziyu walked in with a food box.
Lin Wan was already hungry, so she hurriedly stepped forward to help, and together with Lan Ziyu, she brought out the lunch in the food box one by one and put it on the table.
Seeing that Lin Wan didn't speak, and her interest was not high, Lan Ziyu couldn't help but feel a little worried in her heart, and asked with concern: "Senior sister, has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince embarrassed you?"
Lin Wan shook his head gently, tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said lightly: "His Royal Highness Prince Lan didn't embarrass me, but just now I inadvertently mentioned my father's illness, as well as the situation in the Great Feudal Kingdom, which seems to be very bad, which makes me a little worried." ”
Lan Ziyu sighed lightly, patted Lin Wan's hand, and persuaded angrily: "Senior sister, these things have nothing to do with you now, so don't think about it anymore." The emperor of the Great Feng Kingdom sent you to Xiling Kingdom to participate in the concubine selection feast, and sent Princess Heshuo to Nanyue Kingdom to make peace, and he didn't plan to let you go back. Moreover, I have never thought about how difficult your situation is, and I have never thought of standing up for you and supporting you, so why should you worry about that ruthless and unrighteous emperor?"
Lin Wan was stunned, she didn't expect that her words would arouse Lan Ziyu's resentment about the matter of harmony. At the beginning, if it weren't for the peace with Xiling Kingdom, Lan Ziyu would not have been elected to the palace, would not have gone to Xiling Kingdom to participate in the concubine selection feast, and would not have been sent back in advance.
Although Lan Ziyu had forgotten what had happened in Xiling Kingdom, being sent back in such a disgraceful manner still made her suffer a lot of white eyes, neglect and exclusion in the palace. After returning to the Holy Palace, although there is the care of the Holy Aunt, it is inevitable that there will be people talking behind their backs, and it is inevitable that they will be ridiculed and ridiculed by Bai Ling and others.
Lin Wan understood Lan Ziyu's mood very well, and what she said was not wrong. Therefore, Lin Wan didn't argue with her, smiled faintly, lowered her eyes, picked up chopsticks, and ate silently. It's just that the food is a little unpalatable.
Lan Ziyu saw Lin Wan's sad and depressed appearance, and her heart was even more angry, and she frowned and said: "The matter of your disappearance in Xiling Kingdom, although the news was blocked by Prince Ximen, the emperor of the Great Sealing Kingdom may not know. However, before the New Year's Festival, Prince Ximen married two side concubines in a very high-profile manner, but this matter has long been spread and is well known. Also, our crown princess, although she has now given birth to the eldest grandson of the emperor, has been justified and has come to the bitter end. However, at the beginning, she was also opposed by the old ministers of the court, and she almost couldn't save the child in her womb, and even her life was in danger. But what about the emperor of your great feudal kingdom? Can you care about your situation? Do you care about your life, death, and happiness?"
Lin Wan listened to Lan Ziyu's words, her wrist couldn't help but tremble slightly, and the chopsticks that were about to pick up vegetables stopped in mid-air. After being stunned for a long time, he withdrew his hand and asked in a daze: "Are the two side concubines married by Brother Ximen Bai Qingxue and Jiang Xinbei?"
Lan Ziyu was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that she had said something she shouldn't have said, and said abruptly: "Senior sister, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have said this." Don't be sad, men are like this, no matter how deep the feelings, no matter how sincere the vows are, what about it? Don't worry about going back to Xiling Kingdom anymore, although the position of the crown princess is still reserved for you for the time being, but are you willing to go back and compete with those two side concubines for favor? Maybe, in a few months, the child will be born. You might as well live your life in peace and stop paying attention to the bad things in the world. ”
Lin Wan slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand, his face was calm and sad, his eyes were lowered, and he let out a long sigh, feeling sad in his heart.
