After Lan Shaofeng met the emperor, he came out of the Xuanwu Palace, and when he walked to the Jinshui Bridge, the crown prince Lan Jinyu walked towards him.
Lan Shaofeng stopped in front of the Jinshui Bridge, and Lan Jinyu crossed in front of Lan Shaofeng from the other end of the bridge.
Lan Jinyu is three years older than Lan Shaofeng, but he is also young. The two were born to different concubines, and they are five points similar in appearance, Lan Jinyu is more like King Dayuan, and Lan Shaofeng looks like his mother.
At this time, Lan Jinyu was wearing a dark robe, the cuffs were inlaid with gold thread auspicious clouds, and a piece of exquisite white jade was tied to the belt embroidered with the same cloud pattern. He has a square jaw, clear eyes, and a handsome spirit, and the whole person looks noble and knowledgeable.
Lan Jinyu and Lan Shaofeng have completely different temperaments, Lan Shaofeng is majestic and heroic, while Lan Jinyu is humble and gentlemanly, gentle and handsome.
"The younger brother has seen the prince." Lan Shaofeng respectfully saw Lan Jinyu.
"The Sixth Emperor Brother doesn't have to be formal." Lan Jinyu said, looking behind Lan Shaofeng, there was the Xuanwu Hall where the emperor personally managed the government, "Has the sixth emperor brother seen his father?" ”
"I've seen my father." Lan Shaofeng replied.
"The imperial brother is waiting for the sixth imperial brother to capture Baicheng in one fell swoop." Lan Jinyu congratulated.
The imperial court received the good news from Baicheng ten days ago, so everyone in the palace of the imperial court already knew about Baicheng ten days ago, before Lan Shaofeng returned to Jinlin City.
Speaking of Lan Shaofeng's expedition this time, he did not report the expedition to the imperial court in advance, and the imperial court thought that he was guarding the border. He should have asked the emperor for his will in private.
So even Lan Jinyu only learned that Lan Shaofeng led the 200,000 army not to the border, but to Baicheng after receiving the good news from Baicheng.
He actually went to attack Baicheng and took Baicheng down!
Lan Jinyu looked at Lan Shaofeng's eyes and restrained them slightly.
"Thank you, Brother Huang." Lan Shaofeng replied, he didn't notice the subtle changes in Lan Jinyu's eyes.
"Sixth Emperor Brother, Imperial Brother has a matter that I want to discuss with the Sixth Emperor Brother." Lan Jinyu heard that Lan Shaofeng's army had returned to the city, and he knew that Lan Shaofeng would enter the palace, so Lan Jinyu came to the Xuanwu Hall to see if he could see Lan Shaofeng.
"Brother Huang, please speak." Lan Shaofeng said.
"Sixth Emperor Brother, Bai Cheng, can you give it to the Imperial Brother, you can exchange it with the Imperial Brother's other fiefs with the Sixth Imperial Brother." Lan Jinyu said.
Although the cities captured by Lan Shaofeng's troops are not owned by Lan Shaofeng, Lan Shaofeng wants one or two of them, as long as he asks the emperor for instructions, the emperor will usually reward him.
But other people want the city that Lan Shaofeng has built, and in terms of etiquette, they still have to talk to Lan Shaofeng in advance, such as the current Lan Jinyu.
Lan Shaofeng looked at Lan Jinyu, so far, Lan Jinyu has not taken the initiative to ask for the city except for the emperor's reward, this is the first time, but why does Lan Jinyu want Baicheng?
"Brother Huang, I'm really sorry, my brother has already asked my father to go down to Baicheng. Bai Cheng is a little special to the imperial brother, so the imperial brother can't give it to the imperial brother. If it's a city other than the White City, it's fine. "The reason why Lan Shaofeng entered the palace to meet the emperor as soon as he returned to the city was to ask for Baicheng. Baicheng has a special meaning to him, and now Zuo Huaishu is better to hold it in his own hands.
"If that's the case, forget it." Lan Jinyu didn't force it, but there was still a hint of disappointment flashing in his clear eyes, fleeting, even Lan Shaofeng didn't see it clearly. Without waiting for Lan Shaofeng to ask him why he wanted Baicheng, Lan Jinyu diverted the topic, "The imperial brother is back, you haven't seen the tenth imperial sister yet, right?" ”
"I'm getting ready to go now." Lan Shaofeng's mother concubine has passed away, and among all the princes and princesses, Lan Shaofeng and the tenth princess, Princess Ningyun, have the best relationship.
"Go ahead. The royal brother also has some things to do, and he wants to meet his father. After Lan Jinyu finished speaking to Lan Shaofeng, he went in the direction of the Xuanwu Palace.
Lan Shaofeng went in the opposite direction.
However, after Lan Jinyu took more than a dozen steps, he turned around and glanced at Lan Shaofeng, who was moving away behind him, and Lan Jinyu's eyes were faintly relieved.
Zixiang Palace.
Princess Ningyun ran out of her palace to welcome Lan Shaofeng.
Princess Ningyun is fourteen years old, with a Lingyun bun, wearing a fine brocade dress of Yunyan, a delicate melon seed face, skin like clotted fat, and big eyes. There are still some children's playfulness between the smiles and smiles, naughty and pretty. Judging from her appearance alone, she really couldn't see that she was the one who gave a message to the Yan Palace, and asked the people of the palace to deliberately embarrass the princess of Jinyang Kingdom.
Princess Ning Yun grabbed Lan Shaofeng's arm with one hand, and Lan Shaofeng also let Ning Yun hold him, the two were like ordinary brothers and younger sisters, and their relationship was extremely close. While talking, the two walked into the Xiangyun Palace.
"Brother Huang, as soon as you return to the city, you entered the palace, and you haven't eaten yet, have you?" Princess Ningyun looked at Lan Shaofeng who was still wearing a military uniform, with a dusty look, she asked, but before Lan Shaofeng could speak, Princess Ningyun shouted to the maids waiting in the palace, "Qiao'er, Bai Xiang, go and bring all the pastries sent by the queen mother in the morning, and then serve a new pot of tea." ”
On the arhat bed in the palace, Princess Ning Yun and Lan Shaofeng sat on both sides, and two boxes of exquisite pastries and tea were quickly served.
Lan Shaofeng had only taken a sip of tea, and Princess Ning Yun began to ask him questions.
"Brother Huang, Baicheng, Empress Anling's ancient military book, have you found it?" Princess Ning Yun asked eagerly, seemingly interested in Bai Cheng and Empress Anling.
"Nope." Lan Shaofeng said that he sent people to search carefully inside and outside the Feiyu Palace three times, and he was almost three feet old, and later searched Mo Zhong's mansion, but he didn't find the so-called ancient military book. He also asked Mo Zhong, but Mo Zhong said that he had never seen any military books.
Is there such an ancient war book in this world? And that book of war, even Zuo Huaishu doesn't know if it really exists. Does she really not know, or does she not say?
"Nope." Princess Ning Yun pursed her lips, looking a little disappointed.
"But the princess in the royal brother's palace is really Princess Huaishu." Lan Shaofeng said again, although Baicheng didn't find the war book in the first battle, he didn't find nothing.
"Ahh Princess Ningyun exclaimed, obviously surprised. "Brother Huang is saying that she is really Princess Huaishu?"
"Absolutely." Lan Shaofeng said.
Princess Ningyun also poured herself a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp, and after a while, Princess Ningyun recovered from her shock.
"Isn't Princess Huaishu already dead? How can it be true? But Lan Shaofeng won't lie to her, he said that Princess Huaishu is real, then it must be true. Princess Ningyun seemed to suddenly think of something, "Then what I did before, didn't I treat Princess Huaishu lightly?" ”
Lan Shaofeng looked at Princess Ningyun who looked like she had done something wrong, and sure enough, Zuo Huaishu had indeed suffered a lot of cold treatment in the palace.
"Brother Huang, where is Princess Huaishu now? In the royal palace? Princess Ningyun asked. She had heard before that Princess Huaishu was missing.
"Deputy Lieutenant Qin sent her back to the palace, and she should be in the palace now." Lan Shaofeng said.
"Then I'll have to apologize to her and tell her I didn't mean to." Where did Princess Ningyun think that Princess Huaishu from Jinyang Kingdom turned out to be real. No, this is a misunderstanding, and it would be bad if Princess Huaishu thought that she was deliberately embarrassing her.
It seems that the reason why Princess Ning Yun confessed to everyone in the Yanwang Mansion like that before was not because King Jinyang married the world-famous Princess Yuehua to Su Tianze and despised Lan Shaofeng, but just because she thought that "Princess Huaishu" was a fake princess.
"Brother Huang, don't eat, let's go, I'll go to the palace with you, and I'm going to meet the real Princess Huaishu." Princess Ning Yun snatched a piece of pastry that Lan Shaofeng had just picked up and put it in the box, she had already stood up from the Luohan bed, and then urged Lan Shaofeng.
Lan Shaofeng always couldn't resist him, the imperial sister, so he took Princess Ningyun back to the palace together.
The subordinate reported to Lan Shaofeng that Princess Huaishu had returned to Xuanyang Palace, and Princess Ningyun pulled Lan Shaofeng to Xuanyang Palace.
Xuanyang Hall was built by the crown prince Lan Jinyu at the request of the emperor, from the beginning of the construction of Xuanyang Hall to its completion, Lan Shaofeng has never been to Xuanyang Hall once.
