Chapter 173 Explanation

The tea fragrance was filled with snow, and the slender fingers of the man under the window gently pinched the tea bowl lid, just such an action, it even seemed graceful, only to see that after he dialed the tea bowl lid a few times, he put it down, and his eyes swept over.

An Lan was already sitting upright, but she still couldn't help straightening her waist, and then listened to him: "Bai Guanghan won't spend too much time on choosing. ”

An Lan's heart tightened, and even her breathing became a little heavier.

"At the latest, after this year, a decision will be made between you." Jing Yan looked at the girl in front of him, and there was still a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "Do you have a chance of winning?" ”

An Lan pursed her lips, unable to answer for a long time, the water on the stove was still boiling, and the boiling heat seemed to rush on her, making her palms sweat slightly.

Jing Yan looked at her with soft eyes, but he couldn't tell what it meant.

"Thank you, Childe." After a long time, An Lan spoke, and when she said this, she seemed to exhale lightly.

"It is important to get Bai Guanghan's approval, but the attitude of the head of the Heavenly Pivot Hall cannot be ignored." Jing Yan said slowly, "Changxiang Palace, the incense attendant is in charge of internal affairs, and the chief waiter of the hall is in charge of external affairs." Bai Guanghan's heir is naturally able to directly manage the incense attendants in the palace, but he can't control the head of the palace. Therefore, the attitude of the head of the hall also determines who can stand firm in that position, otherwise, the general affairs of the incense hall will be chaotic. ”

An Lan had a solemn expression and nodded seriously.

Jing Yan looked at those clear eyes and couldn't help but smile: "How much do you know about the hall attendant of the Tianshu Palace?" ”

An Lan thought for a while before saying, "The palace chief is surnamed Li, and his name is Huairen. From the Jiangnan family. When I was young, I was overlifted. Now he is over fifty years old, he is careful, he has never made a mistake in the things he handles, he has been in the palace for 20 years, and outsiders call him Li Ye. His wife has passed away, his two sons are now on errand in the Tianshu Palace, and his youngest daughter was married six years ago. ”

"Good homework." Jing Yan smiled, and then said. "Twenty years ago, Bai Guanghan was not the great incense master of the Tianshu Palace, so in terms of qualifications alone, even Bai Guanghan had to respect him for three points. Moreover, Bai Guanghan also worked as an errand under him back then, so the head of the palace of Tianshu Hall is now relying more and more on the old and selling the old. ”

An Lan glanced at Jing Yan carefully, but saw that he didn't even frown, and his eyes were still gentle. The smile on the corner of his mouth has not faded, but. In the sentence just now, there was clearly a sense of coldness.

Jing Yan continued: "Today, the guests of Swallow Tower are also from the Li family in Jiangnan. ”

An Lan was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Is it the Li family of the same clan as the head of the Li Palace?" ”

"It's the Li family, Li Huairen was able to stand in such a position back then, and it was somewhat inseparable from the support of the Li family, but over the years, Li Huairen's private contacts with Jiangnan have not been as diligent as before." Jing Yan took a sip of tea gently, and the warm tea swirled on the tip of his tongue before he continued, "Do you know what the Jiangnan Li family means to the Tianshu Palace?" ”

"The Li family is the biggest customer of the Tianshu Hall in the south, and it is also related to the connections of many sects." An Lan didn't hesitate, and immediately said this, after entering the Heavenly Pivot Hall for so long, she had spent so much effort that she wouldn't even be unclear about this matter. The business and connections of the Tianshu Hall in the north are supported by the Jing family, and most of the relationships in the south are inseparable from the Li family.

It turned out that the blue-clothed scribe I saw in the Swallow Tower before was a member of the Li family.

"The one who came over is the third master of the Li family, named Li Huairong, and he is Li Huairen's cousin. It is said that the relationship between the two was very close, but one year, the two suddenly had a conflict, so that Li Huairen had to leave Jiangnan, and finally settled in Chang'an, and has settled here since then. ”

An Lan asked: "That contradiction, is it because of the Heavenly Pivot Palace?" ”

Jing Yan shook his head: "That's not it, the contradiction is caused by Li Huairong's wife Ye and Ye Qingqing." ”

An Lan's heart was slightly different: "Ye's ......"

Jing Yan said: "That's right, Ye Qingqing and Ye Deqing are brothers and sisters, but Ye Qingqing was raised by his grandmother and grew up in Jiangnan, so he often has contacts with the Li family, so he has known Li Huairen and Li Huairong since he was a child." ”

An Lan hesitated and said, "It's two men fighting for one woman, so there is a contradiction?" ”

Jing Yan raised his eyebrows and glanced at An Lan: "The little girl has such a story in mind?" ”

An Lan was slightly embarrassed and said, "There are contradictions between men and women, aren't they mostly because of this?" ”

Jing Yan smiled: "Oh, where did you get this kind of understanding." ”

"The Ye family is a scholarly family, and its reputation is not low, but in terms of wealth and nobility, it is far inferior to the Li family. Since Ye Qingqing has often had dealings with the Li family since he was a child, he is naturally led by his elders, and most of them have the intention of getting married. An Lan said seriously, "I heard that Master Ye had a great demeanor back then, otherwise how could he win Xue Lingxi's heart, in this way, presumably Ye Qingqing should be a national beauty, so it is not surprising that there will be two men fighting for one woman." ”

Jing Yan smiled, and looked at the little girl in front of him with a bit of banter in his eyes: "Girl, you really know a lot." ”

An Lan was a little uncomfortable with him looking at him like this, so she lowered her eyes and muttered: "I'm just guessing casually, let Childe laugh, Childe, please continue." ”

Jing Yan chuckled twice more, until he saw that An Lan was becoming more and more restrained, then he suppressed his laughter, and continued: "Although I don't know the specific reason, when Ye Qingqing talked about marriage back then, he did have some entanglements with the two young masters of the Li family. In the end, Ye Qingqing became the third grandmother of the Li family, and Li Huairen stayed away from Jiangnan and went to Chang'an. ”

An Lan asked: "Then why did Li Sanye bring his wife to Chang'an now?" ”

Jing Yan said: "Half a year ago, Mrs. Li suddenly suffered from soul loss, and she didn't remember Li Sanye, and she didn't even remember that she had married and had children, but she only remembered Li Huairen. ”

An Lan was stunned, and then asked, "How did you suffer from soul loss?" ”

"It is said that after accidentally falling and hitting the head, there is this problem."

"Then Master Li deliberately waited for Mrs. Li to come to Mr. Guanghan, is it ......"

"First, because Ye Qingqing only remembers Li Huairen now, clamoring to find someone, Li Sanye had to bring someone over first; The second is that Li Sanye knows that the Great Incense Master has abilities that ordinary people can't reach, and hopes that the Great Fragrance Master can awaken Ye Qingqing's memory. Jing Yan looked at An Lan and said, "The incense itself has the function of awakening memories, and it can also soothe people's hearts. ”

An Lan was stunned, and after a while, she asked, "Then Mr. Guanghan should go?" ”

Jing Yan shook his head: "Ye Qingqing is not only suffering from soul loss now, but also has a strong sense of rejection towards strange men, and his feelings are sensitive and easy to excite, so Bai Guanghan plans to hand over Ye Qingqing to you and the Lord of Danyang." ”

An Lan was stunned for a moment, seeing that Jing Yan didn't seem to be joking, so she hurriedly said: "Gong, Gongzi, Mr. wants to see us, who can cure Mrs. Li?" ”

Jing Yan smiled slightly: "That's probably what it means." ”

An Lan was stunned for a while before she whispered, "The county lord of Danyang also knows about this?" ”

"At this time, the county lord of Danyang should have gone over to Ye Qingqing's side." Jing Yan said slowly, "The Li family in Jiangnan and the Cui family in Qinghe also have contacts, and the county lord also went to Jiangnan to play when he was a child, so he should have seen Ye Qingqing." Li Sanye came over this time, originally asking Bai Guanghan to come forward to ask Cui Wenjun to see his wife, and it happened that the county lord of Danyang was there, so this matter was handed over to the county lord of Danyang to take a look. After all, the Great Incense Master is not on call, with the Lord of Danyang as the traction, coupled with Bai Guanghan's face, if Mrs. Li is not good at that time, how can Cui Wenjun take a look. ”

An Lan's hands on her lap clenched slightly, Jing Yan glanced at her, and said with a smile: "It was Bai Guanghan who asked me to come to you." ”

An Lan stood up: "Then I'll go over now, Childe ......"

"Since I should be a good person for a while, send you over." Jing Yan also stood up as he spoke, straightened his robe, and then said with a smile, "Every time there is something related to you, I can't be idle." ”

"There's Lao Gongzi." An Lan said that she would make a big salute.

Jing Yan then raised his hand to stop her from kneeling, and looked at her with a smile on his eyebrows: "Okay, I'm also a loyal person, and besides, I don't care if you or who cares about you." ”

After leaving the tea room, An Lan cautiously asked, "Is it really Mr. Guanghan who asked his son to come and sue me for this?" ”

Jing Yan glanced at her: "Do you not believe me, or do you not believe Bai Guanghan." ”

"No......" An Lan lowered her eyes worriedly, remembering the loss when she was in the Swallow Tower, and the greed that suddenly rose, and her voice couldn't help but carry a grievance that even she didn't notice, "I thought that with the Lord of Danyang here, Mr. Guanghan wouldn't think about me." ”

Jing Yan looked back at her seriously for a while, his eyes were dark, and he didn't say anything, until An Lan raised his eyes, he said, "You explain here, I'll wait for you in the carriage." ”

Jing Gongzi, are you annoyed?

An Lan couldn't understand the look, and after exchanging time with the two incense waiters, she walked to Jing Yan's carriage with some trepidation. But thinking of Jing Yan's eyes just now, he was inexplicably a little stunned, such a person really only needs one look to make people feel uneasy.

"Girl." The little guy with the car reminded him, and An Lan came back to her senses before she got into the carriage carefully.

The car was even warmer than the tea room just now, Jing Yan was already crooked on the kang table at this time to close his eyes and recuperate, after she came up, he opened his eyes slightly, and patted him next to him before she was about to sit down on the low stool in the car, and motioned for her to sit down.

An Lan hesitated for a moment, then moved over, sat down carefully, and said flatteringly: "Do you want to drink tea, I'll pour it for you." ”

Jing Yan opened his eyes at this time, looked at her cautious and flattering appearance for a while, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "You, you say that you are smart, but sometimes you are too stupid to do it." ”

An Lan didn't dare to talk, she naturally knew that Prince Jing Yan treated her very well, but she never took this kindness for granted. In the face of such a different treatment, while she is happy, she must also pay more caution and think carefully.

How can a child who has not been pampered since childhood be able to calmly accept the love and goodwill of others.

Every time I taste a little bit of sweetness, while greedily absorbing, there is more of a fear of loss.
