Chapter 194: A Night of Sorrow
"What are you doing!?"
Just when Su Lan was still confused by Liu Zijin's words and didn't know what to do, a loud shout interrupted Su Lan's thoughts.
Su Lan immediately turned his head to look, and what caught his eye was the angry Xiao Ling, Su Lan panicked, panicked and withdrew his hand from Liu Zijin's palm, and quickly took a step back, widening the distance between her and Liu Zijin.
Su Lan looked at Xiao Ling with a little weakness in his eyes.
She........ Why should she have a weak heart? She is just the nominal princess of King Ling, but ........ But she still has a weak heart.........
Liu Zijin very keenly captured the change in Su Lan's expression, as well as the action of taking half a step back......... It was like a knife, piercing deep into his heart........ Bloody.........
Xiao Ling strode over, grabbed Su Lan's hand, and stood in front of her, blocking Su Lan and Liu Zijin's sight.
"Fourth prince, I wonder what you are talking about here again with the princess of this king late at night?" Xiao Ling said with a straight face, but the threat in his eyes did not decrease by half.
"Hehe, this king was a little drunk at the banquet, and he wanted to blow the wind outside and disperse the wine, but he didn't expect to meet Princess Ling here, so he said a few more words." Liu Zijin smiled gently.
That gentle smile was different from what Su Lan remembered. In his memory, although Liu Zijin's smile was so gentle and elegant, it was a gentle smile, but at this time, Su Lan felt a taste of a knife hidden in his smile.
"The wine of the southern country is mellow and intoxicating, and the four princes are afraid that they will not be able to beat the wine of the southern country."
"Hehe, it's true that this king is not strong enough to drink."
"It seems that the four princes have no resistance to the things of the southern country, since this is the case, it is better to touch them less." Xiao Ling reminded "kindly".
What Xiao Ling meant by this was that the four princes of the country should remember their identities, they are people who go back to the country, and he, one person and one thing in the south, will not be blessed! Wine is like this, and so is Su Lan! If you want to touch it, it depends on whether you have the ability to touch it!
"That's nature." Liu Zijin understood the meaning of Xiao Ling's words, but his face did not change.
Xiao Ling and Liu Zijin looked at each other, with a fair provocation in their eyes, as well as a bright hostility!
Xiao Ling completely understood, the four princes of the country had known Su Lan a long time ago, and ........ I have long been interested in Su Lan! He also tried to snatch Su Lan from him!
Joke!
Xiao Ling snorted coldly in his heart, how about the four princes of the country, if he wants to be strong here, he wants to see if he has the ability!
Su Lan silently watched the silent struggle between Xiao Ling and Liu Zijin, and his heart was mixed and at a loss.
Master he........ It turns out that I like her too......... She should be very happy when she heard this.
But........ When she saw Xiao Ling coming over angrily, Su Lan had an illusion, as if Xiao Ling also cared about her very much. And........ The hostility between Xiao Ling and Liu Zijin, can she think of it........ Xiao Ling actually has her in her heart? Xiao Ling actually ........ a long time ago Got a liking for her?
...................................................................................................................
"His Royal Highness the Prince........" The guards beside the Crown Prince lowered their voices and wanted to speak.
"Shhh........hhh
"Huh! Looks like there's a good show to watch! The prince smiled slyly.
Hehe! Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling, it seems that God is helping me! The wife of King Ling, the prince of the god of war, actually ........ In the imperial garden of the Southern Imperial Palace, he secretly Chen Cang with the four princes of the Suguo Kingdom, this ........ If it's not a red apricot out of the wall........ That's ......... Collaboration with the enemy and traitor!
"Then we ........"
"Go back!" The prince said sharply.
"Yes."
There was a slight blush, and the prince and his men disappeared into the woods like the wind.
...................................................................................................................
Qingmei has been watching Su Lan's movements from the side, she didn't know when Su Lan actually had a strange man by her side, and just before she could react, His Royal Highness King Ling came over angrily, and she couldn't stop it.
Then, she watched His Royal Highness King Ling angrily pull away the distance between the princess and the strange man. Qingmei chuckled in her heart, and silently prayed to her princess and His Royal Highness, don't use any conflict.
Su Lan left Xiao Ling and Liu Zijin behind and left the pavilion first. She's in a mess now, and I see any of them.
"Princess, who is that man, how can he be so rude to the princess?!" Qingmei immediately followed and said indignantly.
"Let's go back first!" Su Lan didn't answer Qingmei's words, pulled a face, frowned, and then strode forward.
"Yes."
Qingmei had no choice but to follow Su Lan silently, she saw that Su Lan's face was not very good, obviously something bad had happened. Qingmei understands that at this time, the best way is to remain silent and give the princess enough quiet environment and enough time to calm down.
At this time, Qingmei was suddenly very glad that Xia Dong didn't bring Xia and Dong to the banquet tonight, if such a terrible thing happened tonight, if it was Xia Dong, she would definitely be curious to ask about tonight's affairs, and then I was afraid that it would be more troublesome.
...................................................................................................................
Although tonight is the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, in Su Lan's opinion, this thing is just a boring party and singing and dancing.
Finally, Su Lan stayed up for a long time until the end of the dinner. Xiao Ling was stopped by the people in the court and said something to them.
Su Lan glanced at Xiao Ling, then turned his head silently, lowered his head and said to Qingmei: "You go over and talk to Yefeng, and say that we will go back first." ”
Su Lan didn't want to face Xiao Ling now, she was afraid that when she faced Xiao Ling, she couldn't help but think crankily, which would embarrass both of them when the time came, so Su Lan asked Qingmei to go over and talk to Xiao Ling.
Because of Xiao Ling's particularity, in the court, there are countless people who want to harm him, if she leaves silently and does not leave any news for him, he will definitely worry about finding her in this big palace and adding to the turmoil.
Perhaps, at this time, Su Lan himself didn't realize whether he cared too much about Xiao Ling now, and even began to worry that Xiao Ling would do things that were degrading because of her.
"Yes."
After Qingmei finished speaking, she walked back and nodded to Su Lan.
Su Lan turned around and immediately left the hall, and in the snow, Su Lan and Qingmei got into the carriage.
The carriage was bumpy all the way, Su Lan was silent all the way, Qingmei looked at Su Lan worriedly, and asked a few words, but Su Lan's face was not good all the time and did not answer her words.
Finally.........
In the thick of the night, the carriage successfully stopped in front of the door of King Ling's mansion.
"Ome." Su Lan whispered Qingmei's name softly.
"Princess, what do you command?" Qingmei immediately said.
"Tonight, tomorrow morning, you don't have to wait for me to wash, I want to be alone for a good while........." Su Lan said quietly.
"Yes." Qingmei responded in a low voice, then turned to leave, closing the door.
Su Lan slowly paced to the dresser, looked at a quaint wooden box on the dresser, and stretched out his hand to hold the box to his chest.
Su Lan maintained this posture all the time, without any movement.
Suddenly, Su Lan seemed to have decided something and opened the box.
When the box was opened, it was not a precious jewel ring, but a few ordinary envelopes and a portrait.
Su Lan gently took out the envelope and portrait and spread them out in front of him. Su Lan still remembered that these envelopes were full of things she wanted to say to Liu Zijin when she was in Chu State but didn't dare to say them.
And this portrait is the portrait of Liu Zijin drawn by Su Lan in the dead of night, when no one found out, silently lit a candle and boiled red, and his eyes were drawn. The portrait of Liu Zijin, smiling softly and lifelikely, seems to be standing in front of her like a real person and staring at her affectionately.
"Alas!" Su Lan sighed, then silently stuffed all the portraits and envelopes back, looking at the dark night, sadness crept into his heart.
And in the dark night, another sad man, standing with his hands in his hands, full of sorrow, staring at the scattered stars in the dark night sky with deep eyes, frowning as if thinking about something..........
