Chapter 155: Convincing

After receiving the reward, the eunuch smiled and said to Li Anyue, "If the Lord of Mingyue County is willing, the slave can take you to Changxin Palace now, everything is ready." ā€

Li Anyue looked at Concubine Xian with some embarrassment, and Concubine Xian nodded knowingly, "I'm tired of my father-in-law, but this palace still wants to talk to the county lord again, so I won't delay my father-in-law anymore." ā€

The eunuch nodded and smiled, "Yes, in this case, the minions will not bother you." With that, he walked out with the bunch of people and boxes. Li Anyue saw them leave, then turned around and thanked Concubine Xian, "Slave, thank you." ā€

Concubine Xian pulled her, "From now on, you don't have to call yourself that, you can also call yourself a title in front of this palace, if you feel that you are outside, it is okay to call yourself like Yun Xi." ā€

Li Anyue nodded, "Yes, Yue'er knows, thank you for reminding me." ā€

"Don't blame those slaves for being snobbish, you must know that in this palace, the most are minions like them, but they are also the simplest, as long as you give benefits, you will naturally not embarrass you, you must know that in this palace, some favors that should be given cannot be forgotten."

"Yes, Yue'er remembers Niangniang's teachings." Li Anyue silently kept her words in her heart, "Niangniang, may I ask where is the county lord of Yunxi, slave maid...... I want to see her. ā€

"Yes, you have become good sisters now, it's time to meet and talk." Concubine Xian laughed as she spoke, but it made Li Anyue embarrassed for a while, and she didn't know what to say. Concubine Xian stopped quipping when she saw her like this, "Okay, you go to her room and have a look, Ziyu, you can take An Yue there." ā€

"No, no need, Niangniang, I know where the county lord of Yunxi is, I'll just go over by myself!" Li Anyue hurriedly waved her hand, worried about what Concubine Xian would say, so she ran out as if she were sneaking out.

walked all the way to Lan Yunxi's room, and accepted round after round of salutes, until finally Li Anyue had no choice but to nod her head, and rushed into Lan Yunxi's room like a wind. Lan Yunxi was already supported by the maid and sat on the bed to rest, and when she saw Li Anyue come in, she dismissed all the maids beside her.

The maid saluted Li Anyue, then closed the door and retreated, Li Anyue could only nod at her. Li Anyue looked at Lan Yunxi on the bed, she didn't know what to say for a while, and Lan Yunxi didn't plan to speak. After a while, Li Anyue still spoke first, "Lord Yunxi, how is your injury?" ā€

Lan Yunxi shook her head, "Didn't you receive the holy decree?" ā€

"Huh?" Li Anyue was stunned for a moment, "Yes, I have already received the holy decree." ā€

"Then are you the righteous sister who doesn't want to be the lord of this county?" Lan Yunxi asked again.

"County Lord, I—I didn't mean that, but it came a little suddenly, and I wasn't ready for it all of a sudden." Li Anyue frowned and answered her truthfully.

Lan Yunxi looked at her and beckoned to her, Li Anyue walked to her bed, and Lan Yunxi pulled her to sit down, "Maybe you think it is sudden, but this matter was decided after I thought it through." ā€

Li Anyue looked at her with some incomprehension, Lan Yunxi glanced at the closed door, and then said reassuringly, "On the racetrack, your veil fell off, that's your true face, right?" ā€

Li Anyue subconsciously touched the veil, looked at her with some embarrassment, and thought about how to say it to be more reasonable. Lan Yunxi seemed to see that she was trying to make excuses at this time, "You don't have to worry, I will neither expose you to others, nor will I ask you why you are hiding your face like this." ā€

Li Anyue breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you to the county lord, but I don't know why the county lord ......"

"I wonder why I'm so nice to you? If I say it's just because you saved me twice or three times, would you believe it? ā€

Li Anyue was stunned for a moment and shook his head, although it is said that the grace of saving lives is indeed great, but there is no need to think of it as Sister Jinlan, it can be changed in another way. Lan Yunxi smiled, "You don't believe it, but it's true." You saved me for the first time, and you hurt yourself, and I thought about what to repay you with, the bounty or the official position. But then, it seems that my mind has slowly changed, and it was only after today's events that I decided to do so. ā€

Seeing that Li Anyue still looked confused, she continued, "At the beginning, you should be able to detect my hostility towards you. To be honest, at that time, I did think that you were not worthy of Cousin Haoqing, whether in terms of status or appearance, I didn't understand what he liked about you at all. ā€

Li Anyue looked at her with some apologies, "County Lord, I ......"

"Even after getting along with you for a while, I found that you may not be as bad as I imagined, but I still don't admit you in my heart. I also think that even if my cousin Haoqing doesn't like me, he should find someone better than me. Do you think I'm self-righteous? ā€

Li Anyue shook her head, "No, when I first saw the county lord, I already thought that the county lord would definitely be a lovely woman." ā€

Lan Yunxi laughed when she heard this, "I'll just pretend that you're telling the truth." Perhaps it's something I've always been reluctant to admit that there are some fascinating qualities about you that I can't ignore even if I don't admit it. You are smart, brave, honest and kind, and you have a temperament that makes you let your guard down. Before I saw your face, I might have comforted myself with such a reason, but today I found that God can be so partial when he favors a person. ā€

"Eh, county lord......" Li Anyue thought about whether to say something to explain, thinking about what Lan Yunxi said about her advantages, it felt as if what she said was not herself.

"You don't have to worry, I won't be jealous of you, after all, this county lord is not very bad. I just want to say that I am convinced of you now, and it is understandable that Cousin Haoqing is the only one in his heart. ā€

"The lord of the county means ......"

"It means that the lord of this county can't look down on the name of Princess Qingning."

Li Anyue wanted to say something but didn't know what to say, "County Lord, thank you." ā€

"Don't thank me, anyway, it's not interesting to pester a person who doesn't like you, and this county lord is not a person who will embarrass himself." Lan Yunxi shrugged her shoulders, "Tonight's state banquet, you have to dress up well, don't dress like a palace maid, lose the face of my Chen country, now nominally, you can be regarded as the county lord of Chen country." ā€

"Well, I'll try my best." Li Anyue smiled awkwardly and nodded.

"Also, can you take off this veil? It would be a waste to hide such a stunning face under a veil. ā€

Li Anyue pulled the veil and shook her head reflexively, Shenyue Haoqing had warned her before, "Not yet." ā€

Lan Yunxi saw that she was so resolute, and there was no way, she struggled to get up from the bed, and Li Anyue was busy supporting her, "County Lord, where are you going?" ā€

"Are you going to wear your rags all the time?"

Li Anyue looked down at her clothes, and found that she had just been confused by the holy decree, the wounds on her hands had not been treated, and she had not changed her clothes, and she was still wearing the dirty and torn clothes, and she was still sitting on Lan Yunxi's bed just now, and quickly patted it quietly.

"Let's go, let's go see what your dormitory looks like." Lan Yunxi patted her on the shoulder.

"But, county lord, will it be okay if your feet are like this?"

"It's okay, you can borrow your old crutch for me to use later!" Lan Yunxi walked on tiptoe on one foot, Li Anyue hurriedly went over to help her to sit at the table, and then ran back to Meilou, changed into clean clothes, and brought crutches.

Changxin Palace is not too far from Changchun Palace, and it would take Lan Yunxi about ten minutes to walk like this on her third foot. As the eunuch who announced the decree said, the things to be arranged were arranged early in the morning, and when Li Anyue and the others passed, only some palace maids and eunuchs were busy cleaning, and when they saw them coming, they stepped forward to salute. Li Anyue had not been influenced by such a large formation, and she didn't know what to do, but Lan Yunxi helped her speak first, "Okay, you all go down and do your own thing." After they all left, Lan Yunxi pulled her and said, "You are now the county lord, don't be like a little palace maid, otherwise how can you control the people below." ā€

Li Anyue could only nod when she heard this, and the two walked towards the Liuhua Palace, and the two little palace maids who were cleaning up inside saw them coming in, so they hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute, "Slaves and maids see the county lord of Yunxi and the county lord of Mingyue." ā€

"Get up." Li Anyue felt a little familiar when she heard the voice, and when the two of them stood up and raised their heads, they lost their voices and shouted, "Xianglan? Drunken Moon? How did you end up here? ā€

Xianglan and Zuiyue were also very happy, and they were very surprised when they were suddenly called by the people above to serve the county lord of Mingyue today, because they had never heard of any county lord in Tianyang Country before, and they were all surprised when they saw Li Anyue and them come in, but because Li Anyue's current identity is different from the past, they still have to follow the rules.

"The county lord, the slaves and maids are here to serve the county lord at the behest of the lord." Pandan replied respectfully.

"You don't have to be so restrained, just come as you used to." Li Anyue waved her hand, she was not used to her identity now, and she was uncomfortable being held like this.

"Don't say that, county lord, the slaves still have to abide by the rules that should be followed."

Li Anyue wanted to say anything more, but Lan Yunxi grabbed him and made a look, "You go and bring all the clothes and jewelry rewarded by the emperor and dress up for the county lord of Mingyue." ā€
