085 The rain stopped and the wind rose 5
After Zhao Qingmei said goodbye to Shen Qianran, when she walked out of the courtyard, the sun had already set, all the palace lamps were lit, and in the Shen Mansion, the fire trees and silver flowers were extremely enchanting.
Yun Gu, who was waiting outside, stepped forward and asked quietly, "Master, did Miss Shen Er agree to let us take a break and repay the silver owed to Qian Zhuang?" "This year, Qianmeifang developed too fast, and opened three stores in various places, so that the turnover was not effective. He borrowed 20,000 taels from the branch of Ningjia Qianzhuang in the capital, but the reputation of Qianmeifang, which was opened in a different place, was not good enough, and it was open for more than half a year, but it was unable to make ends meet. Seeing that the loan period was approaching, the Ning family's money village was frequently urging money, she had no choice but to do anything, and when she heard that the second miss of the Shen family had returned to Beijing, she came to the door to plead with a cheeky face.
Shen Qianran deserves to be fast, but asks her to take in a woman named Shen Roujia and wear off all her self-esteem in a short period of time and cultivate her servility! and gave her a portrait of Shin Roujia.
She was naturally surprised that there was no such person in her Thousand Charm Workshop. Shen Qianran smiled faintly, there will be one after a while, let her wait for the reception.
Sure enough, not long after, a girl with torn clothes and so sick that she didn't even have the strength to walk came to her, claiming that her surname was Shen Jiarou. Although she was so haggard, she still recognized it as Shen Roujia at a glance.
She didn't expect Shen Roujia to dance so well. In Qianmeifang, a girl who thought that she had a qualification could not have to accompany guests, but in order to wear off the only remaining dignity on her body, she arranged for her to meet some young sons as soon as she recovered from her illness.
With the first time, there was a second time, and now she is accustomed to it, even in the face of the sixty-year-old, it is also a smile.
"Well, postpone the half-year period, it's finally a matter of concern, in the future, I have to think about it, make the semicolon outside impressive, and pay back the balance as soon as possible!"
The two walked slowly on the nine-song corridor, meeting many people they knew on the way. Most of them are regulars in Qianmeifang. Zhao Qingmei didn't dare to come forward to greet her as usual, she tried to avoid walking, and only pretended to be her first acquaintance when she bumped into her head-on, and brought it with a smile. She is well versed in this way, although these people often come to the Thousand Charm Workshop to spend a lot of money to point the charm master, but out of the Thousand Charm Workshop,
All of them are sanctimonious gentlemen.
What's more, tonight these ministers have brought their dependents.
Before arriving at the lotus pond, there were already two pink-clothed maids who stepped forward to take the road, behaving respectfully and politely, "The distinguished guests in front have already taken their seats, please take the exclusive passage of Zhao Dangjia, and let the slave maid guide you." β
Zhao Qingmei smiled slightly, "There is Miss Lao!" β
Yun Gu was a little puzzled, why she set up a channel for them.
Zhao Qingmei explained with a smile, "You haven't seen a big scene, so naturally you don't know, if you don't set up a special channel for such a night banquet, if one or two people who come to perform are not right-minded and make a joke, won't you mess up the whole banquet?" β
"I didn't expect the Shen Mansion to be so thoughtful!"
"How can the Shen family afford such a banquet, not to mention anything else, the mahogany tables and chairs we saw in the afternoon alone are all collections of more than a hundred years, and they must be owned by the Ning family." Zhao Qingmei walked through the path, through the heavy rockery, and saw the lotus pond not far away, except for the light singing and slow dancing of the dancers, the water sleeves and flowing clouds, the rest of the people were gone.
"Where's the people over there?" Yun Gu also asked suspiciously.
The pink-clothed girl replied with a smile, "The holy car is almost here, and the distinguished guests are all going to the gate of the mansion to pick up the car." β
After a big circle, I finally arrived at the back of the stage on the south side of the lotus pond.
Zhao Qingmei entered the backstage of this stage and made a gesture to the accompanying singers, and the sound of silk and bamboo immediately quieted down, and soon, the dancers at the front desk came to the backstage one after another.
After Zhao Qingmei waited for a group of warblers and Yanyan to line up, she took out a list from her arms, and a little smile appeared on her face, "The guest list for tonight has been scooped, girls, it's good news." β
"Sister Mei, who will order the charm master at night, let's talk about it first, and then we will consider whether to run for election." The dancing girl who was wearing a blue duck with wide sleeves and a narrow waist couldn't help but ask, just now when she was in the center of the stage, she saw a few familiar faces, that was the first-class minister of the court, according to her, the specifications of the banquet held by the Shen Mansion in the evening were not low.
Zhao Qingmei seemed to inadvertently sweep everyone's faces, but there was a hint of Ling Li in her eyes, "When announcing the list of distinguished guests, I, Zhao Qingmei, still want to reiterate and talk about the rules of my Qianmei Fang." Since the opening of my Qianmei Fang, I have never forced to buy and sell, you can come here, all of them come voluntarily, you want to leave, as long as you pay back the money you owe, I Zhao Qingmei will never force me to stay. Regarding the charm owner of Thousand Charm Fang, he has always been free to participate in the election. However, as long as you decide to run for election and succeed in becoming the Charm Master, there is no way back, no matter who orders you tonight, even if it is a dog, you have to sacrifice yourself. Have you thought about it? β
"Sister Mei, we are all familiar with this rule, let's talk about who is likely to participate in the Qingdian tonight, so that we can decide whether to participate in the election for the charm master." Being a dancing girl is just a temporary livelihood, and in the end I still want to find a home, if the master of the Qing point is a good master, and I am ordered, maybe I will have a good support for the second half of my life. In Qianmeifang, many sisters have been accepted as concubines by large families, and they have no good food and clothing, which they yearn for.
Zhao Qingmei smiled mysteriously, "I'm afraid this time the charm lord is not easy to fight, because, although tonight is only a birthday banquet, the list of guests is almost equivalent to the palace holy banquet." β
As soon as the words fell, there was a discussion of boiling pots, and the excited voices came and went, and even the singers behind the scenes couldn't help but pick up the curtain and come in to see what was going on.
There was a dancing girl in her twenties who couldn't hold back her excited expression anymore, and opened her mouth to ask directly, "Sister Mei said that the emperor ...... tonight Will the princes come? β
"Ah, Sister Mei, don't sell it, read it quickly......"
"Ah, will His Royal Highness King Ning come? When he returned to Beijing last year after defeating the aliens, I saw His Royal Highness King Ning on the street...... Yes...... It's like a god! β
"But I heard that today's prince, the most beautiful is His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, I heard that it is a pair of glass eyes, which makes people be summoned when they see it......"
"Then how can you compare with King Ning, King Ning fought a battle that no one can win, I heard people from the northwest say that as soon as the barbarians over there heard the name of His Royal Highness King Ning, they didn't even see a human figure, so they fled first, saying that King Ning gave an order, and even their shadows are not allowed to fall on the land of our Xiling......"
The women talked a lot, and the scene began to be a little quiet.
Zhao Qingmei was silent, her smile was full of interest, as if she was looking at something as funny, and slowly waited for these girls to calm down.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, most of these little girls are women in the middle of the family, after losing the family's seclusion, they are not willing to sell themselves as prostitutes, and they can't endure hardship, because they have been pampered since childhood, they have a certain stage foundation, and finally chose to go to Qianmei Fang to be a dancing girl, hoping to one day be able to regain their original life.
"You are all quiet and quiet, so that Sister Mei can speak!" Finally, a voice stopped with a slightly anxious tone.
Zhao Qingmei swept the corner of her eyes, and caught that the person who spoke just now was Shen Jiarou, and a smile jumped in her eyes.
Finally, the excited little girls fell silent.
Zhao Qingmei smiled slightly, "The identity of the guests who came this time is extraordinary, and the distinguished guests who are usually rare in your eyes, such as the ministers of the six ministries, and the famous sons of the Shi family that you have always talked about, can only be regarded as a foil tonight." Therefore, they will be self-disciplined tonight and dare not participate in the election of the charm master. β
As soon as the words fell, the suppressed screams rang out again, and even the ministers of the six ministries and the sons of the Shi family belonged to the foils, so needless to say, they must all be children of the royal family.
"In tonight's list, in addition to His Royal Highness King Ning and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, who you are most concerned about, there are also His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince, King Lanjun, and...... Holy today! β
Finally, a little girl couldn't help but scream. But Zhao Qingmei didn't let everyone express their excitement at this time, and waved her hand to signal everyone to be quiet.
"Don't be too happy, although all the princes who should come have arrived, but there are not many who will go to the charm lord. First of all, King Ning and His Royal Highness the Seventh were basically excluded, everyone knew that His Royal Highness King Ning had long passed the marriageable age, but there was not even a concubine in the palace. β
"It is rumored that King Ning has a habit of dragon and yang, and he looks down on His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince......" I don't know whose voice it is, with a mysterious tone.
"What did you say?" Zhao Qingmei snorted, and directly caught the little dancing girl who was spitting her lips like an eagle falcon, "Can you say these words?" β
"Sister Mei, I was wrong!" The little dancing girl immediately knelt down in panic and whispered, "This is what a Dongyue ambassador said in the last time he came back to Meifang, he said that he saw it with his own eyes and said ......"
"The envoy of Dongyue can say, but you can't pass it on, what is his identity? Who are you? It's been half a year since you've been in my charm shop, why don't you even know this rule? Zhao Qingmei's eyes were as bright as sharp blades, slowly passing over everyone's faces, and the stage was silent!
"Sister Mei, I don't dare!" Xiao Wuji was so frightened that she snorted her head again and again, "Please don't punish me, Sister Mei, I will definitely take care of my mouth in the future!" If I say one more word, I will be reincarnated as a dumb person in the next life! β
Zhao Qingmei's face eased slightly, she shook her head, and a sigh escaped from between her lips, "Today, you don't want to participate in the charm lord election, in my Qianmei Fang, it's not just a matter of admitting that you're wrong, remember, don't do it again next time." Otherwise, you will be degraded to a miscellaneous girl! β
The little dancing girl instantly shed tears, choked a few times, and didn't dare to ask for anything more, so she could only quietly come out of the crowd and stand in a corner with her head down and weep silently.
Zhao Qingmei's expression was straight, and she continued, "There is also His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is excluded, because the Crown Princess is also in the list of distinguished guests, so it should not be ordered." Therefore, the most likely to participate in the charm of Yu Qing is the sixth prince and the king of Lanjun, but there is another person who is also possible, that is, the saint back then, although there are a lot of mothers tonight, but if the emperor is willing
, who can stop it? Girls, your glory and wealth are coming, at that time, don't forget that I have cultivated you in Qianmeifang! β
"Thank you Sister Mei for cultivating!" The crowd shouted in unison.
Under the palace lamp, Shen Jiarou's eyes looked overflowing, and at this time, because of some persistence, hope finally came, and her little face became more and more shining and moving.
"You are all the best dancers in Qianmei Fang, so if you want to run, stand up now, so that I can arrange it earlier." Zhao Qingmei stood aside and pointed to a clearing on the left.
Immediately, the dancing girls scrambled to stand up, and after pushing each other, they finally calmed down. Zhao Qingmei frowned and looked at it slightly, there were about twenty of them, and shook her head and smiled, "It seems that you have to draw lots according to the old rules." There are up to six charm masters at a time, this is an ironclad rule that cannot be broken, if you all give people a little bit and leave, then who will dance in the Thousand Charm Workshop? β
Yun Gu of Qianmei Fang scooped out a porcelain pot of pure color and said with a smile, "It's still according to the old rules, according to the time of entering the workshop, the long row is in front, and the later row is behind." β
After a pillar of incense, some people were happy and some were sad, and some people who didn't smoke it couldn't help crying.
Zhao Qingmei was displeased, and sneered, "What are you crying about, if you feel that staying in my charm workshop has wronged you, the girl can settle the account and go to a high place, I, Zhao Qingmei, have never been strong!" β
"Sister Mei, I..." I'm pumping ...... Won the ......" The little dancing girl was red-eyed and raised the red sign in her hand.
Zhao Qingmei smiled, turned her head and saw Shen Jiarou standing aside in a daze, stepped forward to look at the dove card in her hand, and said with a smile, "Although you didn't catch up with this opportunity, in my workshop, both your dancing and appearance are considered beautiful, so don't worry about not having a chance." β
Shen Roujia had no chance to win, that porcelain bottle had a hidden mechanism, to put it bluntly, Zhao Qingmei would give it to whoever she wanted to win, Yun Gu looked at her face and secretly pressed the mechanism at the bottom of the bottle.
Shen Jiarou seemed to be incredulous and kept looking at the obe card in her hand, as if one more look, the card would turn red. Her eyes were wide open, and her pupils were a little dizzy from the light.
Hearing Zhao Qingmei's persuasion, the corners of her mouth unexpectedly revealed a trace of bitterness, and she begged softly, "Sister Mei, can you help me ......" There was a trace of helplessness in the long tail note.
Before she finished speaking, Zhao Qingmei interrupted coldly, "No, I can't break the rules by myself." There are up to six charmers in one night," after saying that, he stopped paying attention to her, turned around and clapped his hands at a group of dancing girls, and shouted, "Girls, except for the charmers, all the others are wearing half makeup, and their hands and feet are faster, and the singing and dancing will begin as soon as the dinner begins!" β
Shen Jiarou's whole body is cold, half of her face is makeup, even if she is a fairy, what can she do if she can't show her true face?
She is now mixed in the market, how difficult it is to return to her original circle! The draft is no longer a chance, because the primaries have been decided.
Changed her name and surname, came out of the slum with a sense of resentment, in order to walk back to that world again, she let go of all her dignity, only thinking that one day, she would stand on the high place she longed for in the name of Shen Roujia, she always believed in the prophecy "Phoenix pupils and phoenix necks, extremely expensive!" This woman is the mother of the world! β
She even fantasized that one day, when she became the most noble woman in the world, she would be able to influence the emperor's choice of heirs, and when that day came, she would let Lan Ting kneel under her feet and regret her tears!
She will pay off the debts of all the people of the Shen Ning family for the suffering she has suffered. On that day, she will let Shen Qianran live and watch her relatives die of capital punishment in front of her-
For this day, she can endure anything and bear anything!
She jumped from morning to night every day, and she had to keep dealing with those who were not in the same class, and endured a pair of sinful hands reaching out to her body.
Only God knows how difficult it is, so she decided to go this way! How difficult it is for her to get to where she is today, step by step! She looked at the ground, and at the end of her eyes, there was a thick desolation like a floating mist!
When I thought of the evening, I saw the tall Shen Qianran from afar, and walked all the way, countless amazing voices, and countless greetings from the maid and servant...... The shame seems to be slowly tearing apart his body from the depths of his heart, and he is drenched in blood!
In order not to forget the hatred, she would rather have the surname Shen, reminding her of the hatred that eats her bones all the time.
Whether it was Lan Ting brought to her, or Lan Yufeng brought to her, it was all because of Shen Qianran! Shen Qianran!
It seems that no matter how long it has passed, this hatred will not be able to be healed, even if the body is gone, as long as the soul is not destroyed, this resentment of the pain of the bones will be carried into the afterlifeβeven death!
So, she doesn't admit defeat!
Zhao Qingmei quickly arranged that the six charms would be the lead dancers of the six programs in the evening. And the rest of them, one by one, were painted with half makeup.
The gate of the Shen Mansion.
"The emperor has arrived!"
The guard of honor is like a cloud, accompanied by a sound like a bell and drum, the top of the emperor is carved with a five-clawed golden dragon coming slowly, the dragon is like a huan around the clouds, proud of the world in all directions, the head of the golden dragon, the hydrangea of the bright yellow nine-clawed golden dragon.
The chariot slowly stopped at the gate of the Shen Mansion, and the Son of Heaven slowly walked out in a bright yellow embroidered gold dragon robe. Behind him, the four Luan drivers lined up, the curtains were lifted by eight aunts, and the four costumed imperial concubines slowly got off the sedan chair with the support of several eunuchs.
In front of the Shen Mansion, several rows of ministers and relatives in line according to official ranks knelt down to greet them, and thousands of Praetorian Guards stood on both sides with swords, shouting in unison, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Niang Chitose Chitose Chitose! β
"The Qing family is flat!" The emperor was high above, and at the sound of an order, everyone got up in unison, and quickly exited a wide road, and the emperor stepped on the thick red carpet, walked left and right slightly, and asked, "Ning Changxian is here?" β
"The grass people are here!" Ning Changxian hurriedly stepped out from behind the crowd and knelt at the emperor's feet.
"Ning Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, this Xiling disaster, Ning Aiqing spent a lot of money to solve the urgent need for our dynasty, and I am very relieved. Today, since it is Sister Ling's birthday, I specially give a small gift today. Come, Gonggong Zhao, give Ning Aiqing a copy of the monument "The Eighty-one Difficult Scriptures of the Yellow Emperor" that I collected! β
Chief Manager Zhao bowed down and took out a bright yellow box from the emperor's chariot, pulled out the yellow ribbon, carefully took out a cyan book from it, walked in front of Ning Changxian, and said solemnly, "This is a treasure book that His Majesty has stored for seventeen years, please put it away!" β
"Sister Caomin, thank you for the emperor's grace!" Ning Changxian cautiously took it from Manager Zhao's hand, took out a brocade handkerchief from his arms, carefully wrapped it and put it in his arms, and bowed down again.
Everyone secretly booed, the emperor loved to collect classical medicinal books, and this "Yellow Emperor Eighty-one Difficult Scriptures" has a history of nearly 4,000 years, and its preciousness cannot be measured by gold and silver.
Concubine Liu and Concubine Zhen behind the emperor glanced at each other, and a cold glow flashed in their eyes.
"Where's Yi'er?" The emperor was about to take a step when he suddenly turned around and asked.
"Father, Yi'er is here!" Lan Yueyi laughed coquettishly, walked out of the minister's family, and said with a smile, "I'm here with Uncle Seventeen." She heard early in the morning that Nangong Ye went to the Shen Mansion at dusk, she couldn't wait for her father's drive, so she secretly went out of the palace, and she was embarrassed to pester Nangong Ye alone, so she went to find Lan Yufeng.
She originally thought that Nangong Ye must have been entangled by Shen Qianran, and she had a stomach full of cynicism and wanted to fight with Shen Qianran, but who knew that Shen Qianran had been staying in her mother's bedroom, and even Nangong Ye had touched a cold nail when she asked to see her.
"Naughty!" Lan Yuyan reprimanded, not only was there no color in his eyes, but he didn't know what was going on in his daughter's mind. Since Nangong Ye came to the capital, this daughter came to visit her father in the palace banquet when she had nothing to do, but in fact, she came to see Nangong Ye.
Lan Yuyan took the hand of the Eighth Lord Princess, raised his eyes to look at Nangong Ye who was standing beside Lan Yufeng, and said with a smile, "His Royal Highness the Prince, how about going to the banquet with me?" β
Nangong Ye smiled and said, "Thank you for your love!" Then he walked to the other side of Lan Yuyan.
Lan Yueyi triumphantly made a triumphant gesture towards Lan Yufeng in the crowd, and walked into the gate of the Shen Mansion in the eyes of everyone.
On the lotus pond, the sound of silk and bamboo, the Yingge Yan dance group is clustered around a giant drum, a dancing lady light gauze wrapped in a graceful body, soft as a boneless dance on the giant drum crazy dance, barefoot hit the drum surface of the giant drum, between the movement, step out of the exciting drum music.
The emperor sat down first, and after the ministers bowed three times and bowed nine times, Fang slowly sat down, and the drumming just stopped, and the dancers quickly withdrew silently.
Shen Yue Mountain's upright front bow pleaded, "Your Majesty, is there a banquet?" β
The corners of Lan Yuyan's lips showed a slight coldness, it was a feast, but he didn't see a star, did he want an emperor to wait for her?
Concubine Liu's fingers were dyed with red Kodan, and her tail fingers were covered with a crystal clear jade, which seemed to be condensing a wave of sea crystal, her eyes were like autumn water, she glanced at the emperor, and said slowly, "This star has never arrived, the emperor, according to the opinion of the concubine, wait first!" β
Shen Yueshan bowed and replied, "Humble Jing has prepared a big gift to be presented to the emperor, for the sake of prudence, I hereby choose an auspicious time to present it at three o'clock tonight." β
Concubine Zhen smiled faintly, so faint that the corners of her mouth didn't seem to bend, only a pair of thick ink eyes flashed with silver, "Is this gift more than 50 million taels of silver?" He raised his eyebrows again, "Why didn't even Ryan see it?" She's always been so lively, why is there no shadow today, where has she gone? β
Shen Yueshan looked at Concubine Zhen slightly sideways, a pair of eyes under the deep eye sockets were as bright as stars, and in the warm smile, the corners of his lips were filled with a mist of alienation, and he bowed down and replied, "Back to Concubine Zhen, Weichen doesn't know." β
Concubine Xiao Shufei on the side showed a bright smile and said gently, "Since you are asking for an auspicious time, you don't have to wait for an hour, it's better to wait, and it will be good to fulfill the wish of the star!" β
Lan Yuyan's cold eyes were as bright as water, and he glanced at Shen Yueshan lightly, "Then let's have a banquet!" β
At the beginning of the banquet, Lan Yuyan first said some words on the scene, so that everyone could be casual and did not have to pay too much attention to etiquette.
He half-leaned on one end of the bench, lazily listening to the courtesy of the ministers and the soft voices of the concubines.
Then, the bottom began to be on the show one by one, Lan Yuyan looked at the singing and dancing very boring, he was a little absent-minded, he thought that she would also wait for him in front of the Shen Mansion, who knew that there was no one in sight yet.
After receiving the post, he couldn't sleep for several nights, and he couldn't guess what she was thinking. There was a hidden uneasiness in her heart, as if she had an uncontrollable sense of helplessness, just like the bright smile on her face when she saw him and Qin Zhiyao having a private meeting.
That smile, even when I think about it, will still break his heart.
In the past three years, he even began to regret it a little, obviously he had other choices, but he used the most cruel way to tear her apart from him!
The hatred in those glassy eyes was like a knife cutting his heart from time to time, and when he woke up in the middle of the night, the last warmth at that time still had some palpitations when he remembered it, and he asked himself nowhere to ask himself, if he gave her the antidote that night, would there be a difference between him and her!
The more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and I ate a few dishes indiscriminately, without the slightest appetite.
He lowered his head, but couldn't help but look at Shen Yueshan on the left without a trace, only to see that his long and smooth black hair was half-covered by a white dress, sitting there, it was so quiet, just like the bright Yayue in the painting without a trace of popularity, no wonder everyone called him the first immortal of Xiling.
Lan Yuyan looked at it and felt irritated, why wasn't he old? He tortured him like that, insulted him from the depths of his soul, but he was still the same as he was then!
It's been twenty years, and he has never figured out where he lost, even in terms of appearance, he would not lose to Shen Yueshan, not to mention that he was the emperor who ruled the world.
Zhao Gonggong saw the emperor's lack of interest, so he stepped forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, there will be a thousand charms of the charm of the temple to dance, the old slave heard that these charms are all selected from the dancing girls, if the emperor likes it, he can be fine." β
Lan Yuyan glanced at Gonggong Zhao and said with a sneer, "If you can see the vulgar powder from the market, how about ordering one?" β
Zhao Gonggong hurriedly said, "The old slave doesn't dare!" The old slave didn't dare! Busy silenced.
Lan Yuyan half-leaned on the wide and comfortable long chair, and saw that the eighth princess had already left her seat and was next to Lan Jin's right head, but her eyes were desperately looking at Nangong Ye on the right.
Nangong Ye looked depressed, and kept looking in the southwest direction, as if he was looking for someone.
Lan Ling and the crown princess were whispering with their heads bowed and whispered, Lan Ling seemed to be in a good mood, and said something funny from time to time, which made the princess blush.
Concubine Zhen always has a noble face, the banquet has been nearly an hour, and she doesn't even sit on the same table, sitting with her chest and stomach closed, and she is not too tired. And Liu Guifei is old, but she likes to make a fuss, if it weren't for her brothers, how could he let this woman give birth to his eldest son and sit on the throne of the concubine. Just thinking about it, Concubine Liu thought that the emperor was focused on looking at her, and threw a flattering glance at him, and Lan Yuyan secretly cursed in her heart: A group of fools!
Lan Ting didn't seem to have much thought, neither watching singing and dancing, nor eating, he kept looking at his palm, sniffing from time to time, and he didn't hear a word from him all night.
If you want to talk about a few princes, he really belongs to Lanting, and even the most difficult alien race has been suppressed for him, if he takes over his position, he will definitely be able to govern Xiling with a sound voice - unfortunately, it is not that life!
In the end, he looked at Lan Jin with a smile, only to see him sitting half-sideways, his hands supporting his cheeks, dressed very brightly, and his eyes were pointing straight in one direction.
Lan Yuyan followed his gaze puzzledly, and looked sideways to see a child in Ning Changxian's arms, looking curiously left and right with a pair of big eyes, under the palace lamp, shining with brilliant glass.
I mourned fiercely in my heart, and unconsciously opened my mouth, "Ning Aiqing, this kid ......"
Ning Changxian hurriedly got up and said with a smile, "This is the grandson of the grass people, his name is Ning Tianci, he is only two years old when he is full, and the child likes to be lively, so he will take it out to play!" Please forgive me! β
"Bring it to me!" Lan Yuyan squinted and looked at it, the child felt very familiar to him, but because he was a distance, he couldn't see it clearly.
Zhao Gonggong hurriedly stepped forward and wanted to pick up Ning Tianci, Ci'er avoided it dexterously, shook his little head, and said softly, "My mother said, you can't just let people hug Ci'er, this old man, Ci'er can go by himself!" β
After speaking, he jumped down from the bench with a twisted small waist, and after giving Ning Changxian a word to Ning Changxian, he walked out, not afraid of life, and walked in front of Lan Yuyan with small steps, looking like an adult, the soft and immature child sounded, "Give the emperor a greeting!" Long live the emperor, long live, long live! β
Lan Yuyan didn't listen to what Xiao Tianci said, his original attention was all on Ning Tianci's pair of glass eyes, but now when he looked closely, his whole heart trembled, this child was Lan Jin when he was young.
Could it be Lan Jin's illegitimate son? But he immediately denied it, because with Lan Jin's temperament, if he was willing to let a woman give birth to an heir for him, he would definitely admit it openly, how could he let the child's surname Ning?
The emperor squinted slightly, with a hint of weirdness, as if he was sinking into a painful dizziness, and the palace lamp was shining from behind the emperor, so others could not see the emperor's expression, but this beautiful child attracted the emperor's love, and everyone around sounded appreciative.
Lan Yu was in a trance as if he was immersed in a dream, staring at Ning Tianci, looking at him a little stupidly and stupidly.
After a long time, when Zhao Gonggong noticed that everyone was looking at the emperor with puzzled eyes, he coughed heavily and reminded him.
"Good!" Lan Yuyan still couldn't concentrate, but he instinctively praised and took out something from his arms, didn't look closely, just put it on the table, raised his hand and said, "Manager Zhao, reward this child!" β
Zhao Gonggong looked at it, and was startled, it was actually a piece of Long Jue Jade representing the identity of the emperor, he hesitated, leaned down, and asked quietly, "Your Majesty, do you want to reward Long Jue Jade to this Ning Xiao Gongzi?" β
Only then did Lan Yuyan shake his head, tear off a white jade plate from his waist, and took Long Jueyu back into his arms.
At this time, Lan Yuyan's mood was already extremely bad!
Ning Tianci scooped up the reward, still thanking him in style, and after smiling innocently at the emperor, he returned to Ning Changxian's side with his head held high.
Under the bright yellow sleeves, Lan Yuyan's hands were crossed enough to crack his bones, he felt that his heart was about to burst, and he was almost suffocated by the pressure of his painful lungs, so that he didn't notice that the nails on his hands had been pinched into the muscles, let alone feel the pain in his hands. At this time, he kept asking himself how Ning Changan gave birth to another child under his nose.
No - on the day he was reunited with her, knowing that she had not only given birth to a son for someone else, but also a new life in her womb, he swore that there would be no next time!
But the child in front of him, since it is not Lan Jin's, it must be Ning Chang'an's, because it is too much like Lan Jin when he was young, and even his every move is like seven points, either father and son, or brother!
Could it be that she has been relieved of her gray hair for ten years? In the past eleven years, she has locked herself in a dark bedroom every day, just acting in a scene under her nose? In fact, he secretly crossed Chen Cang with Shen Yueshan early?
Ning Tianci's appearance at this time did not only stimulate the nerves of the emperor alone.
Lan Yufeng's whole body was like an ice cellar, his whole body was cold, he didn't look at this child carefully when he was in Andu Town before, and now he realized that this child was too much like Lan Jin. He couldn't help but caress his face, like snow about to break.
He stared straight at Ning Tianci not far away, and then looked at Ning Jin, and his ears rang repeatedly, "King Lanjun, I know that you have always liked Miss Shen, I, Shen Qianran, have always had the beauty of an adult, I will wait for you to ask the emperor to withdraw from the marriage......"
Now, it's all understood!
It turned out that the scene on the street of the capital was clearly Shen Qianran who made a plan and asked him to ask for a divorce.
It turned out that she had already been in love with Lan Jin, no wonder she was on the street that day, and she openly got into Lan Jin's carriage.
It's not that he lost her, it's clear that she calculated him! And he still lives in remorse every night, and he is ruthlessly tortured by himself back then, without a moment of peace! No! Shen Qianran, you have to give me an explanation!
Concubine Zhen and Concubine Liu naturally also saw that Ning Tianci looked very much like Lan Jin when she was young, not that their memory was too good, but that when Lan Yujian brought Lan Jin back, the memory was too profound, and Lan Yuchen at that time was almost crazy, in the prince's mansion, holding the child all day long, and never leaving his body for a moment, even if he was out of his arms, he was holding him, lest he miss half a point. add
Lan Jin was so beautiful when she was young, she was simply unforgettable.
It's just that what they have doubts in their hearts at this time is when Lan Jin added an illegitimate child and his surname is Ning.
Lan Jin had no expression on his face, and sat there motionless, like a delicate puppet. He turned a blind eye to the strange eyes of everyone in front of him. He didn't understand why Shen Qianran would let Ning Tianci appear at tonight's night banquet, did she want the people of Quan Xiling to think that Ning Tianci was his illegitimate son?
Lan Ting's face was obviously angry, and his deep and cold eyes were shining at the moment, obviously it was his own son in front of him, but everyone turned their eyes to Lan Jin, but he couldn't tell Ning Tianci's true identity lightly, otherwise the little girl would have to eat him alive.
He couldn't see Lan Yuyan's expression clearly, but his intuition told him that Shen Qianran would never let the world misunderstand that Lan Jin had an illegitimate child and let Xiao Tianci appear at the banquet. There must be deeper plans, even towards Lan Yuyan.
At this time, Liu Xiang stood up, his figure was slightly bloated, he slowly walked to the center with wine, bowed to the emperor and smiled and asked: "Your Majesty, God bless my dynasty, the rain in Jiangnan for a whole month finally stopped today." Weichen is willing to use a glass of sake in his hand to wish me a thousand generations, the emperor's health and everything! β
Lan Yuyan reluctantly smiled, "Borrow Aiqing's auspicious words!" He drank all the wine in one gulp.
Liu Xiang was overjoyed when he saw the emperor give him such a face, and was about to say another word, but when he looked up, he saw the emperor slightly sideways, his eyes were scattered, his face was as pale and pale as broken jade, his left hand was half supporting his cheek, and there were obvious blood marks on the joints of his hands.
At this moment, suddenly the drums sounded in unison, the sound of smoke and bamboo cannons went straight to the clouds, dozens of bright lights pierced the night sky at the same time, the sky suddenly brightened, everyone raised their heads in surprise, only to see the bright fireworks from all directions, like golden chrysanthemums blooming in the night sky, leaving a cloud of smoke, and then falling slowly like a meteor, and then, one after another
The fireworks rushed up to the clouds one after another, and the whole sky was instantly filled with colorful and brilliant colors.
The words "Guotai and Min'an", "Monarch and Ministers Concentric", and "Long Live My Emperor" kept appearing in the sky, and the ministers stood up one after another to congratulate the emperor, and Chi Hezhong was full of joy.
After a qiΔ calmed down, the sound of silk and bamboo drum music stopped!
At this time, two women slowly walked from the other side of the red carpet, one of them was covered with a faint green veil, and the other was actually a head of silver hair.
Everyone couldn't help but whisper, looking at the woman's body when she came over, she seemed to be extremely young, but why did she have snow hair?
"It's Concubine Lan...... How can Concubine Lan's hair ......" The voice was very small, but many people in the lotus pond heard it.
Shen Yueshan turned his head to look to the left, and suddenly seemed to sense her, his starry eyes were full of ecstasy, he watched her come belatedly, all the scenery in front of him disappeared, and he only saw that there was only one her in the world.
He has been married to her for 20 years, but since the new emperor ascended the throne, he and her are on opposite sides of the galaxy, even if they want to see each other, it is difficult.
Lan Yuyan was stunned for a moment, looked straight ahead, and in an instant, his eyes shot out of disbelief and coldness, and then overflowing with shock, he took a step forward abruptly but was blocked by the long case in front of him, he opened his mouth to call but did not make a sound.
It's incredibly quiet in the pond!
Concubine Liu and Concubine Zhen, who were sitting on both sides of the emperor, saw the emperor's loss of honor at the same time, and turned their heads to look ahead-
I saw that the silver-haired woman who came slowly had a faint smile on her face, the white hair on her temples reflected the glass eyes between her eyebrows and eyes, and her whole face seemed to be like a tide on the night of the blue lake with a mysterious aura that made people look for it
Thrilling. All things in heaven and earth are full of luster....
