Chapter 1517: Like Mother and Daughter
When Lan Shengtian heard this, he immediately frowned, and said unhappily: "Tian'er, Hugh is messing around!"
Hong Xiaotian was startled, and quickly closed his mouth, lowered his head, and stopped talking. But the pitiful appearance of being wronged made people feel soft.
Lan Shengtian shook his head lightly, turned his eyes to look at Lin Wan, and looked at her carefully for a moment before he slowly spoke: "Princess Wan has a good means, and after a while, I heard three people say that they are in love with you." One said that he was like a mother and daughter with you, and the other said that he would treat you as his own sister, and even my Princess Hongde would marry you with Jinlan. Princess Wan is not only the princess of the Great Feng Kingdom and the Dongli Kingdom, but also the future crown princess of the Xiling Kingdom. If you become sisters with Tian'er again, should I also crown you as the princess of our Nanyue Kingdom?"
Lin Wan smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Wan'er doesn't dare, how can Wan'er be virtuous, she is loved by the elders, and she is already extremely uneasy in her heart, how dare you ask for more?"
Lan Shengtian snorted lightly, changed the subject, hooked his lips slightly, and asked lightly: "Princess Wan, do you know why I asked Princess Hongde to invite you to the palace?"
Lin Wan shook her head and said, "Wan'er doesn't know. Wan'er only knew that His Royal Highness Prince Ximen took Wan'er to Xiyan Mountain for treatment, and then fell unconscious. When Wan'er woke up, she found herself in a valley, with Aunt Xian. In the valley, thanks to Aunt Xian's careful care of Wan'er, Wan'er's illness was cured. Wan'er is very grateful to Aunt Xian, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the mother and daughter in the valley where there are only the two of us. ”
Lan Shengtian nodded slightly, his face was slightly pale, and he frowned at Lin Wan for a long time before he said, "Princess Wan has worked hard all the way, I asked Gonggong She to arrange a place for you to live in the palace, let him take you there." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Lin Wan bowed his knees to Lan Shengtian very respectfully, and then slowly walked out of the hall under the guidance of Gonggong She.
Hong Xiaotian saw that Gonggong She had taken Lin Wan away, and he was anxious, but he had no choice but to shout anxiously: "Sister Wan'er, I'll go see you in a while." ”
Lin Wan smiled faintly, nodded, didn't say anything, and obediently followed Gonggong She out of the hall.
The royal palace of the Nam Viet Kingdom is very large, and it is full of tall ancient trees, with twisted branches and lush greenery. The paths in the palace are paved with bluestone, and they look like they have gone through many years, but they are still spotless.
After walking for about a stick of incense, Lin Wan followed Gonggong She and finally came to a remote courtyard.
At the gate of the courtyard stood four guards in armor and carrying large swords, all with their heads held high, and they looked invincible. In the courtyard, there were four young girls dressed in green palace maids, with their heads bowed and standing.
Gonggong She sent Lin Wan into the courtyard, bowed to Lin Wan and said goodbye, and hurriedly walked back.
Lin Wan walked into the courtyard, and the four palace maids were still standing there, motionless. Lin Wan glanced at them, didn't speak, and slowly walked towards the opposite main house.
The furnishings in the main room are very simple, but there are also tables and chairs. There was only a bed, a table, two stools, and no vanity mirror.
Lin Wan shook his head helplessly, walked to the table and sat down. There were teapots and cups on the table, but there was no water.
The room was very quiet, Lin Wan's heart was very flustered, she didn't know how long she was going to live in such a place, there was no one around to talk, and she felt very helpless.
Lin Wan took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and tried to calm himself down.
After a while, a palace maid brought Lin Wan's burden in, put it on the table, and then retreated. There was nothing important in the baggage, only a few sets of changes of clothes and her silkworm phoenix feathers, as well as the two jars of honey that Xu Xian'er gave her.
Lin Wan sat quietly on the edge of the bed, didn't think about anything, just watched the sun set in the west, and watched the sky gradually darken.
A palace maid walked in with a food box, put the food on the table, saluted Lin Wan, made a gesture of please, and then retreated.
Lin Wan thought that these palace maids might not speak the official language of the Great Seal Kingdom, but only the language of the Nanyue Kingdom. Lin Wan found that the relationship between Dongli and Dafeng was better, so most of the people in Dongli would speak the official dialect of Dafengguo. The language of Xiling Kingdom is partly similar to the dialect of the southern part of Dafeng Kingdom, so even if he speaks the language of Xiling Kingdom, Lin Wan can understand some of it. Moreover, the people of both Dongli and Xiling were proud to be able to speak fluent official language.
However, unlike the South Vietnamese State, they have always refused to recognize the leadership of the Great Feudal State, nor are they willing to learn the official language promoted by the Great Feudal State, and they prefer the language of their own country. Only the royal family and high-ranking officials will use the official language of the Great Feudal State when necessary.
Therefore, the palace maids and guards outside did not have any verbal communication with Lin Wan, and their attitude was not enthusiastic, but they were not slacking off.
Lin Wan thought that this should be just an ordinary guest room in the palace of the Nanyue Kingdom, and it was not deliberately arranged for himself. It was impossible for Lan Shengtian to take Lin Wan's arrival to heart, let alone prepare a comfortable place for her in advance, and select a few palace maids and guards who could speak Dafeng Chinese.
The food was not to taste, Lin Wan ate some casually, and then put down the dishes and chopsticks.
The palace maid quickly put away the food and chopsticks and made a pot of tea. It's a pity that the tea leaves are too bitter, Lin Wan only tasted one bite, and will never touch it again.
Lin Wan instructed the palace maid to fetch some hot water to freshen herself, but the palace maid really didn't understand. Lin Wan had no choice but to point to the basin on the washstand, and the palace maid understood what Lin Wan meant, and hurriedly went out and brought in a pot of hot water.
The palace maid was quite clever, helped Lin Wan make a good face wash, prepared all the utensils, and stood aside, waiting for Lin Wan's orders.
Lin Wan waved his hand and sent the palace maid out before cleaning it himself. The conditions here are limited, so I can't take a shower for the time being, so I just washed it briefly, took off my coat, and went to bed.
With the new environment and new bed, Lin Wan couldn't sleep at first, but looking at the darkness in the room and the hazy night outside the window, Lin Wan was a little scared. So, Lin Wan had no choice but to close her eyes and constantly hypnotize herself.
Lin Wan didn't know when he fell asleep, but he felt that the night was a little cold, and before dawn, he was frozen awake, wrapped tightly in the quilt, shivering.
Then, Lin Wan touched the darkness and put the silkworm phoenix feather on his body, only to feel a little warmer, and thought to himself, fortunately, the cold poison in himself has been lifted, otherwise, I am afraid that I will not be able to survive this night.
Lin Wan closed his eyes again, his hands clenched the jade pendant around his neck, and he silently recited Zhou Tianqi's name in his heart, but tears flowed involuntarily.
