Xia Yi didn't know that he had offered his own cultivation techniques in front of him, and when he turned his face, Emperor Shang wanted to give him a hard blow. It was only because of Lan Tianye's unexpected interference that Emperor Shang failed to humiliate Xia Yi in person.

Just thinking about Xia Yi's frightened and desperate look, Emperor Shang felt regretful, but unfortunately he couldn't see this scene, and he didn't know if he would have this opportunity in the future.

Lan Tianye also left the New Year's Palace not long after Xia Yi left, and it was not until it was getting late that he finished the day's affairs, left the palace, and returned home.

Zuo Xianglan Mansion, you can feel it up and down the house today, the lord's mood is very good, even in front of his subordinates, he does not put on an old-fashioned face, with a slight smile on his face, and his voice is much more kind than before.

After Lan Changgong finished his affairs outside, he returned home, only then did he take off his disguise, showed a tired look, reached out to take the hot towel handed by the next person, put it on his face and took a few deep breaths.

When he took off the towel, Lan Changgong regained the gentle, confident, and spring-like Shaoqing of Honglu Temple.

Lan Changgong came to his father's room to greet him, but was left in the room.

Lan Chang sat respectfully in his chair, waiting for his father to finish his official business. He often goes in and out of this study, but he always maintains respect and awe, his father, as the left minister of the Great Shang Dynasty, has almost achieved such a lofty position under one person and above ten thousand, even as his own son, Lan Changgong still maintains enough respect.

Not long after, Lan Tianye finished handling the official business at hand, put down the pen, blinked vigorously, straightened his waist, and made his body lighter.

"Father. Lan Chang greeted respectfully.

"Hmm. ”

Lan Tianye nodded, his expression was calm, completely different from the respectful look he had in front of His Majesty, and it was also different from the prestige of the left minister in front of his colleagues.

At this time, all he had to do was the majesty of a father.

"What have you been busy with lately?" Lan Tianye asked in a faint tone.

Even if the father and son, even if they are under the same roof, even if the father and son are officials in the same dynasty, the two will not be able to see each other every day.

Lan Tianye, as the left minister, is in a high position, and ordinary officials have to be careful when they pat their ass, let alone invite the left minister to go out to gather and have fun. And Lan Changgong, as a leader in the younger generation of the imperial court, has a good family background, good character, good looks, good strength, almost everything, and is the object of everyone in the court, almost every day someone from a family or an official of the court invites him to drink.

Lan Changgong, as the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, is an official of the fourth grade, but he does not plan to spend his life in Honglu Temple, in the future, he will definitely enter the center of the imperial court and become the minister of the imperial court. Therefore, for the smooth development of Lan Changgong in the future, he must also have a good relationship with the officials and sons of the family in the court.

It's not that he, as the son of the left prime minister, doesn't need to cultivate a relationship with anyone, just waiting for others to curry favor with him.

This point, Lan Changgong still has it in his heart.

The father and son discussed things in private, and there was no need to be too restrained, Lan Changgong did not salute again, but just answered his father's questions seriously.

"Recently, the Shangwu Competition has been going very smoothly, and many foreign envoys have come to watch the competition, and there are quite a few people, so they are busy arranging their affairs. Lan Changgong replied quickly.

Lan Tianye nodded, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly asked about Huaichuan Academy. Romance 888

"I heard that the academy where you acted as a guide had a good score, and it seems that it broke into the semi-finals of the team competition, right?" Lan Tianye asked.

Lan Changgong blinked, not understanding why his father suddenly asked this question. When this matter was first mentioned, his father only explained that it was His Majesty's will, and Lan Changgong respectfully accepted the task, and since then, the father and son have never mentioned this matter.

Unexpectedly, today's father suddenly mentioned Huaichuan Academy, Lan Changgong's thinking was extremely fast, and he soon thought that His Majesty the Emperor asked about it.

After pondering for a moment, he decided to tell the truth: "That's true, Huaichuan Academy broke into the top four of the team competition. However, I haven't visited Huaichuan College in a while. ”

Lan Tianye raised his eyebrows slightly, he was keenly aware that there seemed to be a deviation between his own and His Majesty's thoughts.

"Why?"

Lan Changgong vaguely guessed the meaning of the palace - not only Lan Tianye was pondering this matter, Lan Changgong had also pondered this matter - but the other side of this matter did not cooperate very much.

"Her Royal Highness doesn't like me to be overly concerned about this matter, she thinks that she owes something to Huaichuan Academy, so she invests a lot of energy into them, I only appeared as a guide for a few days, and when they got acquainted with the environment of Longxiang Temple and Chaoge City, I found that I had lost my usefulness. ”

Lan Changgong smiled very simply: "I'm just a guide, and if I fulfill my responsibility, I will complete the task." ”

Lan Tianye frowned slightly, he figured out some meaning from his son's words, and even some of his sons were unwilling to reveal the meaning, he also figured it out.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess has a lot of attention to Huaichuan Academy, but not you?" Lan Tianye was still pondering some details in his heart, and the speed of his mouth became slower and deeper.

Lan Changgong replied unexpectedly: "The guide, it's just a guide." ”

Lan Tianye understood what his son meant.

His Majesty's will is to act as a guide, and other officials will ponder His Majesty's intentions, why he would assign a young secretary of Honglu Temple to act as a guide for a foreign academy, and what is the implication of this.

And Her Royal Highness the princess simply understands this will as a superficial meaning, since you are a guide, you can do your duty as a guide, and you can go back after the task is completed. As for what other meanings are implied in this will, Her Royal Highness the princess does not delve into it, and no one dares to say anything.

Lan Tianye understood, and Lan Changgong also understood, Her Royal Highness the princess did not understand this will, and she did not delve into this will, which meant that she rejected the deep meaning implied in this will.

Lan Tianye's brows gradually deepened, and his mind was a little tired. This is a little different from what he expected.

Lan Changgong observed his father's expression, his mind flashed, and after a while, he guessed his father's intention to mention this matter today.

"Father, Your Majesty must have said something, right?" Lan Changgong had a hint of worry on his face, and looked at his father with a worried expression.

Seeing his son's demeanor, Lan Tianye's eyebrows jumped fiercely.

This rabbit cub shouldn't have anything else in mind, right?
