Zhou Chengkuan nodded slightly and said, "Prepare a soft sedan chair, let's change our clothes and go." ”

Lin Wan smiled helplessly at Zhou Chengkuan and said, "See you when you see it, you always have to meet, and you can't hide if you don't want to see it." Thank you Brother Huang for thinking so thoughtfully, I walked for most of the hour, and I was indeed tired of walking, and it was really uncomfortable to change into palace clothes and walk. ”

Zhou Chengkuan hooked his lips and smiled, and said: "Go and come back when you go to meet, this is not a big feudal country, and you are not the host, so you have no responsibility to accompany the guests you don't want to see." ”

Lin Wan's eyes lit up, nodded heavily, and said happily: "Brother Huang is right, since it is a hostile relationship, after all, it is going to tear my face, I don't have to play a sisterly relationship with Lu Manting anymore, it's really tiring." ”

Zhou Chengkuan smiled and nodded, and said, "Go and change your clothes, don't let the emperor wait for a long time." ”

Lin Wan nodded, took Shangguan Yun's hand, and said, "Let's go, Yun'er will go with me, and we'll go to change clothes together." ”

Shangguan Yun looked at Lin Wan in astonishment, and said in disbelief, "Will I go too?"

Lin Wan nodded and smiled: "Yes, you come with me to see the thickest-skinned and most stalkative woman in the world." ”

When Shangguan Yun heard this, he glanced at Lin Wan and said angrily: "Are you talking about me?"

Lin Wan laughed, shook her head and said, "Yun'er is so cute, how could I mean you?" I'm talking about Lu Manting, she is already Prince Lan's fiancée, and she is still pestering my imperial brother, and she has chased here. You'll know when you go and see it, but don't offend her, her methods are very vicious. ”

Shangguan Yun snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "I won't talk to that kind of woman!"

Zhou Chengkuan looked at the backs of Lin Wan and Shangguan Yun who were far away, shook his head helplessly, and turned around and walked towards his residence.

Lin Wan changed into the palace clothes that Bing'er had prepared in the morning, found a set of elegant long skirts for Shangguan Yun, helped her put on light makeup, took her hand, and walked downstairs together.

Outside the gate of Wanxin Palace, Zhou Chengkuan was wearing a black brocade robe, a jade crown and his hair were tied up, and he stood long, majestic and indifferent. Behind him stood Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, next to which was a soft sedan chair, which was still carried by two guards of the pro-guard army.

Lin Wan got into the soft sedan chair, and the guards slowly got up the sedan chair and moved forward steadily. Zhou Chengkuan walked in the front, Bing'er and Shangguan Yun walked on both sides of the soft sedan chair, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu walked last, and the group walked unhurriedly towards the imperial study.

When they arrived outside the imperial study, the guards put down the soft sedan chair, Lin Wan walked down from the sedan chair and stood with Zhou Chengkuan, Bing'er, Shangguan Yun, Xiao Wu, and Xiao Liu stood behind them, standing with their heads down.

Gonggong Hua waited at the gate of the palace early, respectfully saluted Zhou Chengkuan and Lin Wan, and then led everyone to the main hall of the imperial study.

Zhou Chengwan and Lin Wan walked into the main hall and stood in the center of the hall, Zhou Chengkuan bowed to Ximen Longao, who was sitting on the throne, and said, "The little nephew asks Uncle Ximen for peace." ”

Lin Wan also smiled sweetly, curtsied, and said crisply: "Wan'er also greets Uncle Simon." ”

Ximen Longao nodded with a smile and said, "Zhou Xian's nephew, Wan'er, don't be polite, please sit!" As he spoke, he pointed to the two seats on the right and motioned for Zhou Chengkuan and Lin Wan to sit there.

Zhou Chengkuan thanked him, turned around and walked to the first seat on the right, and sat down upright. It seems that he didn't see Lan Ziheng on the other side, and Lu Manting, whose eyes have been following him.

Lin Wan smiled slightly, also walked to Zhou Chengkuan's side and sat down, nodded to Lan Ziheng and Lu Manting opposite in a friendly manner, and did not speak.

Ximen Yuqing stood on the left back side of Ximen Longao, nodding to Zhou Chengkuan and Lin Wan, with a faint smile on his face, but there was no warmth in his eyes.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little delicate and feeling a little embarrassed, Ximen Long Ao coughed lightly and said, "Nephew Zhou Xian, Wan'er, you and Prince Lan and Princess Heshuo all know each other, so I won't introduce them to you." I will hold a banquet in the palace tonight, wash the dust of the four of you, and invite the king of Qi and some ministers, as well as their children, into the palace to have a banquet together. It's been a long time since I've had this excitement in this palace, and I hope you can have a great time. ”

Lan Ziheng hurriedly got up and thanked: "Thank you Uncle Simon for your hospitality, the little nephew and Manting are respectful and obedient, they will definitely enjoy such a grand and pleasant feast." ”

Zhou Chengkuan also thanked Ximen Longao, his face was expressionless, and he didn't look at Lan Ziheng and Lu Manting from beginning to end.

Lin Wan smiled faintly, glancing at Lu Manting from time to time, and then at Shangguan Yun who was standing behind him. I saw that Lu Manting's peach blossom eyes had been sticking to Zhou Chengkuan's body since Zhou Chengkuan appeared outside the gate, and she didn't notice that Lin Wan and Shangguan Yun were secretly looking at her, and they didn't care at all.

Shangguan Yun looked at Lu Manting's eyes full of disdain and some disgust. However, seeing Zhou Chengkuan's attitude of turning a blind eye to Lu Manting, there was some joy in his heart.

Ximen Longao and Lan Ziheng exchanged a few more words, mainly some words of greeting to Lan Shengtian. Then, he looked at Lu Manting, and asked with a light smile: "I wonder when the wedding date of Lan Xian's nephew and Princess Heshuo is set?"

Lan Ziheng frowned and glanced at Lu Manting, coughed lightly, successfully recalled Lu Manting's sanity, and lowered his head shyly.

Then, Lan Ziheng smiled and replied respectfully to Ximen Long: "Back to Uncle Ximen's words, the wedding date of the little nephew is scheduled for the Mid-Autumn Festival night this year, and the father will definitely solemnly ask people to send a post over, and he doesn't dare to drive Uncle Ximen, I just hope that Brother Ximen will take his crown princess to attend the wedding of the little nephew." ”

Ximen Long laughed proudly, glanced at Ximen Yuqing, who had been standing behind him without saying a word, and then at Lin Wan, who was sitting next to Zhou Chengkuan, who was also quiet, nodded and smiled: "Okay, when the time comes, I will definitely prepare a generous gift, and let Qing'er take his crown princess to Nanyue Kingdom to drink the wedding wine of Lan Xian's nephew and Princess Heshuo." ”

As he was talking, a shrill voice came from outside the door: "Prime Minister Xu Cheng of Nanyue Kingdom has arrived!"

Everyone turned their heads to look, only to see Xu Nuo wearing a cyan official robe, smiling, and slowly walking in. Walk to the center of the main hall, salute Ximen Longao, Ximen Yuqing, Lan Ziheng, Lu Manting, Zhou Chengkuan, and Lin Wan one by one, and then sit in the last seat on the right.

Ximen Longao asked with concern, "Prime Minister Xu, is Princess Ziyu's condition better?"

Xu Nuo hurriedly stood up again, bowed down and replied: "Thank you for the emperor's concern, Her Royal Highness Princess Ziyu's illness is not a big problem, but she has suffered from the wind and cold in the past few days and can't come out to blow the wind, so Her Royal Highness the princess can't participate in tonight's banquet." Her Royal Highness the princess asked the lower officials to apologize to the emperor on her behalf and ask the emperor to forgive her. ”
