Five hundred and seventy-six

This is a dark space all the time, although the walls on all sides are lit with candles made of whale oil from the deep sea, but even the bright light of the whale oil candles does not make this space look much brighter, this is not to say that the quality of these whale oil candles is not good enough, but because the space here is really large, so even if the brightest whale oil candles are used, it still looks very dark, but you can still see a lot of shadows in the dark, you can see a carved bed, Not far in front of the bed there was a round table, several stools, covered with a gorgeous brocade tablecloth, a candle was also lit on the table, and next to the table sat a man, this man turned his back to the direction of the entrance, so what he saw was only a faint back, but even if he just looked at the back, he could still feel the gloomy aura emanating from this man, as if this person had been swallowed by something dark.

If you look closely, you can see that there is a wine jug and a wine glass in front of the man, a few delicate side dishes, but at this time the man doesn't seem to have any intention to taste the wine and food, but is contemplating something, outside this huge space is a lot of different passages, leading to different directions, there is a slight sound coming from the north passage, when such footsteps sound, the man's yin aura seems to have become heavier, and his face is also a little impatient. If Lan Susu was standing here at this time, she would recognize where this was, who was the man sitting at the table, yes, this is actually the secret room in the secret passage under his mansion under the sixth prince Gao Ruiwen, not only collects the wealth that Gao Ruiwen has accumulated over this time, but also where Gao Ruiwen sleeps every night, people like Gao Ruiwen will always be vigilant about the things around him, so he spends the night in this secret room every night, Not only to collect his wealth, but also to avoid someone assassinating him, because Lan Susu found that Gao Ruiwen would spend the night in this secret room every night, and he also arranged a stand-in room in his palace, which was really a very careful plan, but this kind of thing really made Lan Susu feel very disgusted.

"Qingyin has seen the master, and Qingyin has been delayed, so I ask the master for forgiveness." The person who came was a young and beautiful woman, this person looked at the man sitting at the table with his back to him, looking at his gloomy back, the woman's body would even tremble slightly, this secret room was actually a place for her that made her very disgusted and afraid, here he had experienced too many things that a woman would never want to experience in her life, although she was afraid to come here, but she had to come, because she always thought that this was his own fate, The man sitting with his back to himself is his own master, whether it is his body or his life, even his own heart is not controlled by himself, as a person living in the shadows, his life is the master's, and his death is also the master's, there is no third way to choose.

"If you want to leave the county lord's mansion, you naturally have to put some thought into it, after all, there are a lot of people there, but these are not the things I want to know, I just want to know if Lan Susu has the intention to move to the county lord's mansion to live, after all, living in the Yongping Marquis Mansion will not be of any benefit to her, if she lives in the county lord's mansion, he can really do whatever he wants, with the favor given to him by the emperor, it is not impossible for her to call the wind and rain." The words of the sixth prince couldn't help but make the listeners feel creepy in such a dark environment, because the resentment in his tone was really heavy.

Gao Ruiwen will be like this is not accidental, but because he feels that he has accumulated too much dissatisfaction with the world in his heart for a long time, since he was a child, he has never been praised by his father, his father has always been very disdainful of him, but he never knew what this is, he has always worked hard to get his father's approval, but no matter how hard he studied, how carefully planned all kinds of things, But he has never received a little praise or an affirmative look from his father, even if he is the best among all his brothers, this is why Gao Ruiwen never understood, he didn't know how many times he wanted to rush into the imperial study to ask his father why he was very good to other brothers, but Dudu was really so different from himself?

Even if Gao Ruiwen has been thinking like this for a long time, he doesn't have the courage to ask, because he is afraid that the answer he gets will disappoint him even more, so he decided that since his father doesn't pay attention to him at all, then he must prove to everyone that he is actually the best one among all the princes, even if he doesn't have the opportunity to study at the Qingliangtai of the White Horse Temple, he will never lose to them. Because of this idea, Gao Ruiwen has been planning for a long time, not only according to the legend to find the underground palace where the original king stayed, but also to get the money left by the rebellious county king more than a hundred years ago, everything is in his own plan, including squeezing out his brother, how to deal with the prince in the future, how to deal with his other brothers, Gao Ruiwen has already planned.

But even Gao Ruiwen, who has been secretly planning everything, and thinks he has mastered everything, did not expect one thing, this thing is the appearance of Lan Susu, the eldest lady of Yongping Houfu is a stupid and dumb person who can't speak, this matter can be said to be well known in Fengdu City ten years ago, this stupid girl is still very unlucky, she was burned to death in a fire, and after she died, she didn't even have a well-dressed mound, who cares about such a thing for ten years, But what Gao Ruiwen never expected was that ten years later, the breath palace banquet, this unlucky fool actually appeared at the banquet again, she also became the righteous daughter of the regent of the Xueyan Kingdom, a good friend of the Prince of Beimu, even among the princes of the Fengchen Kingdom, there are people who know her, and the relationship with her is still very good, her seventh brother personally confirmed her identity as the head of the family listening to the waves, and she is actually one of the richest merchants in the entire Tianyue Continent now, At this time, even Gao Ruiwen, the sixth prince who has always boasted that he is hibernating, can't help but glance at Lan Sugao, because even if he is in the court, he still pays attention to the things outside, Linghai Tingtao started doing business ten years ago, although it is said that it started from a ready-to-wear store, but it can almost be said that it quickly penetrated into all walks of life, and it has always been very good, Gao Ruiwen knew that Lan Susu was not a fool ten years ago with these things alone.

He immediately understood, Lan Susu has never been a fool, on the contrary, she is a genius, everything when she was a child, she has already understood everything, and deceived all the people with a disguise, looking for an opportunity to leave the Yongping Hou Mansion, using the fire of Xiangguo Temple as a cover, after escaping from Fengdu City, she quickly disappeared into the city, which was something that all people did not expect, Because no one would believe that a lady would do what only a lowly businessman would do, but Gao Ruiwen admired Lan Susu the most, she did things that people dare not think and disdain, and finally achieved great success, which made Gao Ruiwen still appreciate Lan Susu, but at that time he didn't feel that Lan Susu would be much of a threat to him.

It's just that this kind of appreciation didn't last long, Gao Ruiwen soon realized that Lan Susu might become a real person who would affect the future situation, and he would have such an idea from Yongping Hou Lan'an personally took Lan Susu to the Jinluan Palace, and the blood test proved that Lan Susu was his biological daughter, Yongping Hou asked the emperor to canonize Lan Susu as the county lord with a different surname in Yongping Houfu, this special title is the special honor that Yongping Marquis has always enjoyed, but in addition to the first canonized county lord, Lan Susu is the second person to be canonized in the Yongping Hou Mansion, and at that time, his father agreed to Yongping Hou's request without hesitation, not only canonized Lan Susu as the county lord of Linglong, but also rewarded her with a fief, the county lord's mansion, all of which shows that Lan Susu is not only transcendent in Yongping Hou's heart, even if it is the same in his father's house.

None of what happened next did not confirm Gao Ruiwen's guess in his heart, his father actually summed up Lan Susu to refuse to marry, and also assigned her to the seventh prince, Gao Ruiwen has always been very clear that the emperor's most valued son is not himself, not the prince, not the fifth prince, but the seventh prince, and also rewarded Lan Susu with a death-free gold medal that will only be awarded to his heir, which not only shows the emperor's fancy for Lan Susu, but also shows the emperor's thoughts, he wants the seventh prince to inherit the throne, But now there is still the crown prince, so he will give this token representing the identity of the heir to Lan Susu, because the princess of the seventeenth prince of Lan Susu, when the time comes, this thing will also belong to the seventh prince, at this time Gao Ruiwen's heart is very clear, not only the seventh prince can't stay, even Lan Susu can't stay, although this person is said to be a person who has nothing to do with the royal family, but her identity and status can be said to be very transcendent, and Lan Susu has a lot of relationships around him that can be used. All these things are very unfavorable to oneself, and if you can't use them by yourself, then you must destroy them, which is Gao Ruiwen's consistent principle of doing things.

"Silly girl, what are you talking about, your young lady, am I the kind of person who will let someone block a knife for me? You're still so young that you don't deserve to lose your life for me, if I need you to resist these things for me, I wouldn't have saved you in the first place, nothing is important to fight for every chance to live, I won't say anything If one day I die, you must live for revenge, I just hope that you must live well, find your family, live well with them, find your own happiness and have children, and be an ordinary person, Never think about revenge for me, when is the time to get revenge, in fact, these are my family affairs, and it is very unreasonable to involve you, so if there is anything in case, you must not make any decisions to avenge me, Mei Ying I know that you are a person worthy of my dependence, so if things really change unexpectedly this time, I only ask you for two things, one is that you help me take good care of Mother Liu, and send her old age for me. Another thing is that you have to help me tell the Seventh Lord about the things I am doing now, and help her bring down the Sixth Prince, so that I will be enlightened even if I die. ”

Lan Susu looked at Mei Ying as he said, she knew that Mei Ying was a person worthy of her own dependence, so if she really had any accidents, these two things would be entrusted to Mei Ying, Lan Susu knew that she would definitely do it, because she was the same as herself, she would definitely do what she said. Just like Lan Susu himself said, these things are actually grievances between himself and the eldest lady, so if one day she unfortunately dies in the hands of the eldest lady, then Lan Susu definitely doesn't want anyone to come out to avenge herself, because some things will not continue to be better at this point, Lan Susu will have such thoughts, in fact, it is not accidental, and it is not because she feels that she can't fight the eldest lady, but there have been a lot of things recently, And Lan Susu already has to deal with a lot of things, so many things are Lan Susu and feel a little bit powerless, and recently she has always had an ominous premonition, this is not the first time such a thing has happened, although there was a time when he had a premonition and escaped, but there was also a time when he was the result of a broken body, so this time there is such a feeling, even Lan Susu does not know whether he can successfully tide over the difficulties, Therefore, you should still remind yourself that the people around you are, otherwise if something really happens, it will be too sudden.
