Lan Junyao held a golden duster in her hand, and there were two rows of palace maids standing in front of her. That day's inquiry ended in vain, and although Lan Junyao was unhappy for Ling Qi in her heart, she couldn't show these grievances in front of the emperor. The emperor did not continue to ask, but ordered her to be a good maid and not to lose her honor in front of the envoy of the Southern Frost Kingdom.

Lan Junyao finally explained to them in detail, the situation was serious, and it was inevitable that there was some majesty in her words. If something goes wrong in front of the foreign envoys, I am afraid that it is not a matter of punishment, and it will be difficult for them to protect their heads.

Lan Junyao heard the rumors from the palace ladies in private, and the monarch of the Southern Frost Country was also very helpless about this, and all the ministers took turns to fight, but they couldn't change his mind. The emperor asked him if he had a favorite, but he didn't answer. This move made Dongling's marriageable women very happy, which meant that they were all likely to be favored by this prince.

Following the election of the Eighth Prince a few days ago, Dongling once again set off a wave of enthusiasm to be married, and it is not too much to call it the whole country boiling, after all, the inspirational stories of the two side concubines of the Eighth Prince are inspired in front, and even the daughter of the concubine can climb the branch to be a phoenix, what is impossible in this world.

I heard that early this morning, the young ladies of each family began to dress up, and at this point in time, the streets were only afraid that they had been occupied by these sisters-in-law and little mothers-in-law, and they took advantage of this effort to show their faces in front of the prince of Nanshuang Kingdom, maybe he would be the lucky one if he saw it.

As early as an hour ago, the third prince took a group of officials from the Ministry of Rites to the city gate to greet the Nanshuang envoy. In the past two days, these little maids also know that they are powerful, and if Lan Junyao explains, they will not implement it word for word, but they are afraid that they will lose their lives if they lose their lives.

Nanshuang's visit this time was not unexpected, I heard that it was a prince of Nanshuang who came in person to find a marriage among the marriageable women of Dongling Kingdom, and used this to determine the alliance relationship that had come. This prince is also strange, only saying that he was selected among the marriageable women in Dongling, but he did not say that he must be a princess.

The noise came from afar, Lan Junyao stood beside the emperor without squinting, and with just a glance, the battle of the Southern Frost Kingdom fell into his eyes, and one of them had high sideburns, and he was dressed in purple clothes with an innate nobility. Lan Junyao stared, only to feel that his figure looked a little familiar.

The three princes were parallel to him, and both of them strutted with their heads held high, followed by the officials of Dongling and Nanshuang Kingdom. Lan Junyao's eyes followed the prince of the Southern Frost Kingdom closely, but he couldn't remember that he had a friendship with the prince, and was searching for his memory, when the emperor suddenly laughed and stood up from his seat.

"Shuang Xiujing has seen the monarch of Dongling, Xiujing wishes Dongling Guotai and the people peace, and the monarch for a hundred generations. Shuang Xiujing bowed to the emperor, and a group of courtiers of the Southern Frost Kingdom behind him also saluted, and the officials of the Dongling Kingdom knelt down one by one under the leadership of the three princes.

The clear voice came to the high platform, and the tight string in Lan Junyao's heart immediately broke in response, and she was very familiar with this person at her feet, but how could he be the prince of the Southern Frost Kingdom.

"Cultivating the scenery has worked hard all the way, and it must be a good life and rest. Let Ruan Er take you around tomorrow, if you have a favorite woman, bring it early for me to take a look, your father has entrusted it in his heart. "The emperor seems to be in a good mood, at least since Lan Junyao returned to the palace, he has never seen such a hearty smile on his face.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Shuang Xiujing raised his head, his eyes were looking at the woman behind the emperor, and with just one glance, he staggered his gaze, which was completely different from the usual person she was familiar with.

The official of the Ministry of Rites presented the gift list brought by the prince of Nanshuang, and the long gift list filled a fold, and the emperor put it aside at a glance, but the smile on his face was even brighter. In this way, the two sides said some more scenes, and Lan Junyao followed the emperor and retreated.

Lan Junyao looked at the direction of Shuang Xiujing's departure with a complicated face, and her eyes were full of puzzlement. Since Brother Sanssouci left the Blue Mansion, she has lost his news, and she only thinks that Brother Sanssouci has returned to the valley, but she doesn't want to meet again.

Shuang Xiujing, the prince of the Southern Frost Country, is the worry-free brother who has accompanied her for five years, and Lan Junyao, such a worry-free brother, has never seen it. In the five years of Tanaka, she rarely inquired about the past of her brother Wuwu, and only vaguely learned that his mother was killed and that it was the master who raised him.

Lan Junyao only felt as if a knife had cut a hole in her heart, and the blood was dripping with a dull pain, and she couldn't help but clench the handkerchief in her hand. Why did he become Brother Carefree, no, it must be a similar face, Brother Carefree doted on her like that, but his glance was all strange.

She stood at the gate of the hall, glancing at the direction of Shuang Xiujing's departure from time to time, and the palace maid who was noisy on weekdays was gone. She was anxious when she saw a pale-faced palace maid stumbling towards her.

"Lord Xiuyi, please save us. She knelt heavily in front of Lan Junyao and kept kowtowing to her, and in a blink of an eye, blood stains appeared on her forehead.

Lan Junyao pulled her up from the ground, "What happened?" She recognized this palace maid named Weiyang, who was sent to serve in Jiayue Hall this time.

"Lord Xiuyi, when Changge was sorting out the prince's things, he accidentally broke a jade hoop, and the prince was angry and wanted to put us all to death, begging Lord Xiuyi to save his life. Weiyang's body trembled, her face was full of pale color, and she took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness to drill out of the dog hole in the back wall of the Jiayue Palace.

From this point of view, the temper of the prince of the Southern Frost Country is really cruel, and Brother Wushuang is simply the same heaven and earth, Brother Wushuang will not implicate others because of such trivial matters, Lan Junyao felt that something was wrong in her heart, and she groaned slightly, and said: "You lead the way, I will go with you." ”

According to his temperament, it won't be of much use to be afraid that she goes, but these palace maids are innocent, and it would be good if she could do her best.

Weiyang hurriedly wiped away the tears on her face, even if Lan Junyao was with her, she was still afraid in her heart, the two of them were side by side, her legs and feet were not as flexible as usual, but there was a trembling feeling, Lan Junyao frowned, what kind of prince could scare her like this.

In the Jiayue Palace, Shuang Xiujing's face was cold, holding the jade hoop that had been broken into several petals and was carefully piecing them together. Outside the palace, the palace maids knelt in a row, all with earth-colored faces, and in front of them lay the bodies of their sisters, who were the palace maids who had just broken the jade hoop.

Her eyes were wide open, her eyes were full of fear, and the blood on her lower abdomen was gushing out, and Lan Junyao approached, and what she saw was such a brutal scene.
