Volume 3 [Unyielding]

Bao Jianfeng is sharpened out, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold.

――*――*――

There are thirteen incense courtyards under His Royal Highness Tianshu, so there are a lot of daily chores, and in addition to the affairs of the incense courtyard, there are more people who have dealings with the Tianshu Hall everywhere in the Tang Kingdom, and it is naturally impossible for the great incense master to do everything himself, so this kind of matter is handled by the head of the palace of the Tianshu Hall and the incense attendants around the great incense master.

The practice of the Tianshu Hall is that every new incense attendant who enters the temple needs to figure out the general affairs of the Tianshu Palace within one to three months, and it is not required to be familiar with all of them, but at least they must know what the general affairs of the Tianshu Palace are, who are the people in charge, and the process.

So, on the second day after entering the Tianshu Palace, Chi Shao led An Lan and the Danyang County Lord into the affairs hall of the Tianshu Palace.

Except for special things, the attendants and attendants of the Tianshu Hall will come here every day to hand over and deal with the affairs in their hands. Therefore, the affairs hall of the Heavenly Pivot Hall is busy, it can be imagined, and An Lan is not much surprised by this. She came out of Yuanxiang Courtyard, where there are only about 200 people in Yuanxiang Courtyard, and there are dozens of big and small things every day, so it is conceivable that the real Changxiang Hall is not just as high and cloudy as outsiders can see.

The county lord of Danyang was really a little surprised, not because of the many chores in the Tianshu Palace, but because of the fact that he had to face so many miscellaneous things. Speaking of which, there are two or three hundred people up and down the Cui Mansion, and the daily things in the mansion will only be more than those in the Xiangyuan, not less than those in the Xiangyuan. However, the county lord of Danyang rarely participates in the management, and he has been obsessed with perfume since he was a child. Therefore, for the trivial matters in the house. Almost never asked. Therefore, now that he suddenly saw such a situation in the Tianshu Palace, he was inevitably a little shocked in his heart.

"You two may be seated." When Chi Peony had led them in, he invited them to sit down on the side, ordered two hot teas to be served, and then got up and left.

At this time, there were about 20 people in the affairs hall, all of them focusing on their own affairs, and from time to time there were incense slaves and attendants coming in and out. But everyone deliberately lowered their voices when they spoke, so although this qiē looked busy, it was not chaotic. So in such a affairs hall, An Lan and Danyang County Lord, who were sitting on the side, were more abrupt.

I thought that after Chi Shao brought them here, she would explain some things to them, but after the two sat for half an hour, they found that no one had paid attention to them, and Chi Shao didn't know where she went.

Dismounted? The county lord of Danyang frowned slightly, which was obviously contempt. With indifference and unconcealed hostility, she was not a stranger. But there was still some surprise. Qinghe is not the only noblewoman, she has encountered a lot of things in the past ten years, but she knows who is who and why all the people who intend to embarrass her. But here, in the face of such a thing, she couldn't figure out for a while, whether this was the meaning of Chi Shao, or someone else, and whether Master Bai Daxiang had acquiesced in this matter?

And for An Lan, she didn't think as much about this matter as the county lord of Danyang, and she wasn't even surprised, even in places like Yuanxiangyuan, whether it was between incense envoys or incense slaves, there were cases of zài xenophobia, let alone here.

The head of the Yuanxiang Courtyard didn't care about everything, so the great incense master of the Tianshu Hall naturally wouldn't pay attention to such a trivial matter. What's more, Prince Jing Yan had told her before that if she didn't have the ability to climb up by herself, then when she entered the Tianshu Palace, she would be eaten to the point that there were no bones left.

So, the current situation, can not be counted on anyone.

"Miss Anlan." The county lord of Danyang suddenly spoke, but she didn't look at An Lan, but looked at the teacup in her hand with a serious expression.

An Lan turned her face sideways and looked at her inquiringly.

"Why does Miss An Lan want to enter the Heavenly Pivot Palace?" After being silent for a while, the county lord of Danyang raised his face and looked at An Lan, "Please forgive me for being rude, in fact, I have been wanting to ask you this question a long time ago." ”

There was some surprise that the county lord of Danyang would ask this, An Lan was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyes, looked at the light tiles in the Tianshu Palace, and after a while, he asked instead of answering: "Then why does the county lord want to enter the Tianshu Palace?" I heard that the great incense master of the Yuheng Hall is the aunt of the county lord, why should the county lord go far and near? ”

The county lord of Danyang was silent for a while, and smiled with a sigh: "The Great Incense Master chooses apprentices, and blood relationship is never a necessary condition. ”

This answer was a little ambiguous, and An Lan only listened quietly.

The county lord of Danyang hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "That day in Tongquetai, why did Master Cui Daxiang ask Miss An Lan to talk?" ”

"I don't know." An Lan shook her head slightly, looked at the incense attendants in the affairs hall who were still ignoring them, and paused before asking, "The county lord is very concerned about this matter." ”

This sentence is said lightly, but with a little imperceptible certainty, not a question, but an affirmation.

The county lord of Danyang was a little surprised, and glanced at An Lan, with such a tone, with a calmness that did not match her identity. She thought it was ...... The county lord of Danyang smiled: "No, I'm just a little curious. ”

"Actually, I didn't say anything, Master Cui Daxiang just asked me a few words, and it wasn't my business to ask." An Lan glanced at the Danyang County Lord, and continued, "It can't affect the decision of Master Bai Daxiang. ”

"That's right......" The county lord of Danyang nodded slightly, and then also looked at the incense attendants in the affairs hall, "They did it on purpose, what are you going to do?" ”

An Lan was silent, although she was mentally prepared, she didn't expect to encounter such a soft nail on the first day.

She is not afraid of others looking for trouble, but she is afraid that anything will politely turn her away.

The county lord of Danyang changed the topic again: "What Master Bai Daxiang means, only one disciple is accepted, and he chooses between you and me." ”

"Hmm." An Lan replied softly, indicating that she knew.

"If she loses the election, Miss An Lan will still stay in the Tianshu Palace." The county lord of Danyang looked at An Lan as he spoke, "Miss An Lan is originally a person from the Changxiang Palace, and it is better to stay in the Tianshu Hall than to go back to the Yuanxiang Temple, isn't it?" ”

"I didn't think about it that much." An Lan was silent for a long time before she said this.

It's not a scene, it's not a polite word, it's a heartfelt word.

She really didn't think about it that much, and she wouldn't let herself think about it that much, because, the back road, not everyone can have.

The county lord of Danyang said: "Miss An Lan is determined to win?" ”

An Lan asked rhetorically, "Isn't the county lord?" ”

The county lord of Danyang paused before saying, "Actually, I don't want to compete with you. ”

"......" An Lan was silent, and did not answer the words of the county lord of Danyang, but said in her heart, in fact, she didn't care who she competed with. It's just that this sentence is a bit arrogant to say, so she chooses to bury it in her heart.
