322 Back Garden Secondary 2
"County Lord, what did you say, who is it?" Lan Luoling was already a little absent-minded at this time, because just now her mother sent someone to inform her that she had sent Caijuan out of the house to do things for her mother because she had something to do temporarily, Caijuan had been sent by her mother to serve her, but at such a time, she sent Caijuan to do things, which was a little unreasonable. You must know that in the morning, he sent Caijuan to follow behind the fifth prince Gao Yuanli, in order to prevent Gao Yuanli from meeting with Lan Susu, now does this mean that the mother found out about this matter, so Caijuan was locked up, the reason why he didn't look for himself now is completely because he is the second lady of the Yongping Hou Mansion, if he is locked up at such a time and does not appear, it will have an impact on the reputation of the Hou Mansion.
In Lan Luoling's own situation, but sometimes, she naturally didn't notice Lan Susu and Yan Xueyi who were standing by the lake and talking, because she understood that the current Lan Susu was no longer the original Lan Susu, and now she has too many opportunities to stay, and get the protection of her grandmother, because her grandmother has always wanted people who are useful to the Yongping Marquis Mansion, and those who are useless will only be kicked aside. And recently, his performance is really a little unsatisfactory, if it weren't for the fact that he was already the appointed concubine of the five princes because of the previous holy decree, I am afraid that I would not have the opportunity to attend such a grand gathering today.
On the contrary, Lan Susu is different, she is not only the Linglong County Lord who was canonized by the emperor himself, but also many good people in the royal family, and even in various countries, but Lan Susu is already much stronger than herself, so how can Lan Luoling not worry? At such a time, she would only think that Caijuan was locked up by her mother, the purpose was to give herself some warning, she didn't expect that Caijuan was dead at this time.
"Those two people standing by the lake, one of them is Yan Xueyi, the regent of the Snow Yan Country, and who is the other woman?" The girl in purple is Gao Xian, the daughter of the king of Anning County, she was born in the royal family, although her father is just a county king, but because her father is obsessed with poetry and books, and is dedicated to being an idle prince, so life is also comfortable and leisurely, speaking of which, the daughter of the county king can not be named the county lord, but Gao Xian has been smart and clever since she was a child, and even the queen mother likes it, because her biological mother died of illness when she was young, the queen mother loved her and lost her mother at a young age, and she was afraid that her stepmother would not take good care of her, so she was personally taken into the palace to raise, and gave her the position of county lord, in order to let her not be bullied, because of the queen mother's favor, everyone in the palace had to give him three points, which also developed her proud and domineering character, even better than Lan Luoling.
"That's my eldest sister, this year's Qixi Palace Banquet, the county lord has not seen the eldest sister because he accompanied the Queen Mother to the incense, the one next to her is the regent of the Snow Yan Kingdom, the Snow King is my eldest sister's father-in-law, and this year is the Qixi Palace Banquet that he took my eldest sister to attend." Lan Luoling didn't understand why Gao Xian was suddenly a little angry, but she knew that from the current situation, Gao Xian didn't like Lan Susu, so this was an opportunity she could take advantage of, so she deliberately emphasized the relationship between Lan Susu and Yan Xueyi.
"Although I can't see it very clearly from a distance, but your eldest sister is still a beauty, but it's a pity that she is the daughter of a concubine, but she was named the county lord, Ling'er, are you willing?" Gao Xian looked at Lan Luoling and asked thoughtfully, she couldn't get used to Lan Luoling before and felt that Lan Luoling was just a beautiful straw bag, but after contact, she felt that Lan Luoling was a person with real talent and learning, so she began to make friends with Lan Luoling. However, because he grew up beside the Queen Mother, he was pampered since he was a child, so Gao Xian has always spoken straightforwardly, even if Lan Luoling, who wanted to use Gao Xian to fight Lan Susu, felt very sad when he heard Gao Xian's sharp question.
"The county lord doesn't know, my eldest sister's mother died of a blood collapse during childbirth, and my father took pity on her for giving birth to the blood of the Yongping Marquis Mansion, so she has already promoted her mother to a flat wife, and she is also the concubine of our Yongping Marquis Mansion, because she was separated when she was young, and the eldest sister has only returned to the Yongping Marquis Mansion now." Although Lan Luoling didn't want to defend Lan Susu in his heart, but the current Lan Susu was the eldest lady of the Yongping Marquis Mansion after all, the so-called glory and loss were both good, if he was in front of his handkerchief, he would naturally not hide his dissatisfaction with Lan Susu, but now after all, there are still many people who don't know very well, and Lan Luoling can't directly echo Gao Xian's words.
"Speaking of which, she is just the daughter of a flat wife, in terms of noble status, where can she compare with the daughter of your eternal wife, Ling'er, don't be sad, wait for me to enter the palace in a few days to make the queen mother clear, and ask the queen mother to let the emperor remove her from the status of the county lord, and see what she will compare with you in the future." Gao Xian looked at the direction of Lan Susu and Yan Xueyi and said fiercely.
In fact, only Gao Xian herself understands that the reason why she will do this is entirely because of Yan Xueyi, people in the world say that Yan Xueyi is a moody man, and people can be killed between talking and laughing, but she feels that Yan Xueyi is a man with a true temperament, if you like it, you will love it, and if you don't like it, let it disappear, such a man is a man who stands up to the sky, she knows that Yan Xueyi turned the tide when she was a teenager and suppressed the palace change of Xue Yan Kingdom, although at that time Yan Xueyi was already famous for being cruel and violent, But Gao Xian still thinks that everything is good in Yanxueyi.
In fact, there is a reason for this, one year he followed his father to the country of Xue Yan, but he met in the middle of the way, the chaotic party, at that time it was Yan Xueyi who got the news to personally bring the soldiers to the rescue, when Yan Xueyi came, a chaotic party was raising a sword to assassinate her, Yan Xueyi arrived in time, saved her life from the hands of the chaotic party, although she was only eight years old at that time, but she had already left a heart of her own on Yan Xueyi's body, She still remembers that when she said that when she grew up, she would repay Yan Xueyi's life-saving grace with her body, and the smile that bloomed on Yan Xueyi's lips, he smiled and said yes.
After many years, Yan Xueyi has not married a wife, and he doesn't even have a concubine by his side, all of which makes Gao Xian feel that Yan Xueyi is waiting for her to grow up, and marry her when she grows up, although eight years have passed since then, she is already a sixteen-year-old girl, and she has already been slim, but Yan Xueyi still did not come to propose, which made her feel very worried, but this time she heard that Yan Xueyi came to congratulate Gao Huan in advance, and may even propose peace to Fengchen Kingdom, Such rumors made her heart excited, although she accompanied the Queen Mother to incense outside at that time, but all she was thinking about was the arrival of Yan Xueyi.
Even after she came back, she didn't wait for Yan Xueyi to come to see him, she also felt that it was just because Yan Xueyi was a little embarrassed, and she came to attend the banquet in the Yongping Hou Mansion today just because her father said that the eldest lady who had just returned home from the Yongping Hou Mansion was not a simple woman, and hoped that she would have more contact with her, which would be beneficial to her in the future, but what she didn't expect was that after coming to the Yongping Hou Mansion again, he heard a lot of rumors, and only then did he know that Lan Susu made a living in business after leaving home, The eldest lady of the Hou Mansion should not be in the most lowly industry even if she is in decline, and the identity of Shinong Industry and Commerce and merchants is the bottom, because they are all mercenary people who are full of copper smell, how can such a person be the object of his noble county lord's friendship!
But since Gao Xian has already come, it is naturally not easy to brush her sleeves away, but she also feels very bored when she listens to those ladies in the courtyard discussing what piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, not because Gao Xian can't, but she thinks that these women have nothing else to discuss together except these, it is really boring, so she will agree to swim and fish in the lake with Lan Luoling and them, which can be regarded as a relief, but what she didn't expect was that she would actually see the person she had been thinking about for eight years by the lake. The man was gently plucking the leaves on the head of the woman opposite him who had been blown off by the wind, and the faces of the two people were not clear at all, but she still recognized the man at a glance, not because of her good eyesight, but because the figure of the man had long been hidden deep in her heart and burned into her life. The man who promised to marry him, how could she accept that he gave his tenderness to others like this! Although she hasn't met Lan Susu yet, Gao Xian has already labeled her as a disliking.
"Don't say that, the eldest sister is already the Linglong county lord canonized by the emperor himself after all, plus because in the early years, he went to Xiangguo Temple with his mother to pray for blessings, and the eldest sister will disappear, so the mother also feels very ashamed of the eldest sister, so she will hold this banquet for the eldest sister in order to make up for the eldest sister, the eldest sister has been wandering alone for ten years is already very pitiful, if it weren't for the Snow King who accepted her as a righteous daughter, the eldest sister doesn't know when she will be able to go home!" Lan Luoling is also a woman in love, how could she not feel that Gao Xian seems to have a special affection for Yan Xueyi, even if she doesn't use Gao Xian at this time, Gao Xian will also target Lan Susu So, what she did was just adding a little oil to this fire.
"In that case, why don't we row the boat to the other side and ask your eldest sister to go fishing with us." Gao Xian looked at the dazzling two people on the shore of the lake, and said calmly that she grew up in the palace since she was a child, although she was by the side of the Queen Mother, but those intrigues were naturally not unseen, although this Lan Susu said that she was the righteous daughter of Yan Xueyi, but the intimacy between the two people made her look very eye-catching, because in Gao Xian's heart, she was the only one who could be intimate with Yan Xueyi, and no one else was even the righteous daughter of Yan Xueyi.
"Thank you for your understanding, but there are male guests over there, and we are all young ladies from each family on the boat, so it seems a little inappropriate to row the boat over like this." Lan Luoling naturally understands that Gao Xian has already held a grudge against Lan Susu, and now she is looking for an opportunity to rectify Lan Susu, but now she is not only entertaining Gao Xian, but also the high-ranking daughters of other families, Rao is Lan Luoling very much wants to see Lan Susu make a fool of herself, but she doesn't dare to joke about the reputation of these girls, if something happens, she is just a young lady in the Hou Mansion, but she can't afford it.
"It's okay, you tell them to lower the curtains on the boat, and you and I will go to the bow of the boat to pick up your sister on board." Gao Xian shook her head, this is a good opportunity to see Yan Xueyi, naturally he will not miss it, even if it is just to say a word to that person, or to look at that person, it is also excellent, even if Lan Luoling does not say it, Gao Xian will let these ladies put down the curtain on the boat, after all, Yan Xueyi is a man, if he falls in love with other women at this time, how can he have the opportunity to go to Fengchen Country to kiss? Such a thing is absolutely not allowed to happen.
"County Lord, this is really a bit inappropriate." Lan Luoling said with some embarrassment, in fact, she was in a good mood when she knew that Gao Xian wanted to embarrass Lan Susu, originally she just wanted to bury a little unhappiness in Gao Xian's heart, so that Lan Susu's life would definitely not be good in the future, because Gao Xian was notoriously stingy and resentful, but she didn't expect Gao Xian to be so impatient, thinking about Yan Xueyi was the catalyst between Gao Xian and Lan Susu.
Although Lan Luoling was rejecting Gao Xian on the surface, she understood that Gao Xian would not stop at all at such a time, if Lan Luoling was a reckless person, Gao Xian was an impulsive type, seeing that the opportunity was in front of him, it was simply impossible for him to do anything, and it was precisely because of this that Lan Luoling wanted to indulge Gao Xian, because today she was the master of the family, and if something happened, she would be to blame, but if Gao Xian insisted, it would be different even if there was something, after all, Gao Xian is the county lord, and she is just a young lady from the Hou Mansion, how can she stop the county lord's willful action?
"Ling'er, when did you become like this, I just pity your sister for ten years of exile, life is hard and it is not easy to invite her to swim in the lake and fish, I will also ask everyone to lower the curtain on the boat, naturally it will not be collided by anyone, this is naturally foolproof, even if there is something, there is the lord of this county, you don't have to worry." Gao Xian was already very unhappy when she saw that Lan Luoling was still unwilling to agree to her request, but when she thought that she was a guest today after all, and Lan Luoling was the master, she had to endure it and not lose her temper.
