"Who did you say was coming?!" Su Lan was taken aback.

"It's the four princes of the country........ I heard who came to visit His Royal Highness King Ling. Xia Dong said disapprerovingly.

"I heard that this fourth prince of the country is handsome and gentle, and the most special thing is ........ He had a bewitching red flower on his face. Xia Dong said curiously: "I really want to go and see it with my own eyes........ What does this so-called Four Princes look like.........."

Hearing this, Su Lan's face turned white. Master........ That person was at the banquet Chinese New Year's Eve the palace, and the master had already seen Xiao Ling, and today he came to visit King Ling, and the master he ......... What exactly do you want to do?

Don't.........

"Princess....... Otherwise, you can take us to see this four princes........ Isn't it good........"

Xia Dong was talking energetically, but Qingmei hit her arm coldly.........

"Ah....... What's the matter, Qingmei, don't you want to go and see this four princes who trace back to the country? Xia Dong didn't see Su Lan and Qingmei's strange looks at all, and said with his eyebrows fluttering, and then thought of something, and said with self-pity: "It's the same....... Qingmei, you and the princess went to the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner together, you must have already seen the four princes of the country, and now I am just so stupid........"

But now, no one pays attention to Xia Dong's "self-pity", and Su Lan has mixed feelings in his heart....... Qingmei's heart is also full of worries....... The fourth prince took advantage of the second day of the Lunar New Year to come to King Ling's mansion, ostensibly to visit His Royal Highness King Ling, but in fact, such a high-profile behavior is afraid that the princess will fall into the quagmire.

"That'........ Princess........ Shall we still go? Qingmei asked cautiously.

Su Lan was silent, silent....... Then he said in a deep voice: "Go!" Summer and winter, green plum ........ Help me get the things on the dresser. ”

Xia Dong and Qingmei took the jeweled hairpin on Su Lan's dresser and carefully dressed Su Lan.

"The Four Princes are interested in these paintings?"

Before it was time to eat, Xiao Ling found that the four princes of the Su Kingdom had been staring at the few paintings hanging on his wall, as if they were very interested in the paintings in his room.

"Hehe, this king just didn't expect that His Royal Highness King Ling, as a general, is actually quite interested in landscape paintings." Liu Zijin said with a polite smile.

Xiao Ling looked at the few paintings hanging in his room, most of these paintings were fresh and elegant, he really didn't look like a big man who would collect this kind of paintings.

But in fact, these paintings were not collected by Xiao Ling, they were left by his mother. Few people know that Nanwang's Chen Guifei is actually a very famous painter, and when she was tracing the country, Chen Guifei's paintings were famous in the country, but every painting she painted was sold anonymously when Chen Guifei was tracing the country.

However, since Concubine Chen fell in love with King Nan at first sight and married to Nanguo, she rarely touched paintings again. Because........ Nanhou, Xiao Ling still remembers what Nanhou said to his mother when he was very young-once he married into the palace, don't touch these vulgar things again.

Nanhou called the landscape and pastoral paintings made by his mother concubine vulgar, perhaps........ In her eyes, the pastoral ........ It's vulgar indeed!

But......... Xiao Ling and Liu Zijin didn't receive it, so they could put all these words in their hearts, not to mention that the two of them were actually potential rivals, of course Xiao Ling wouldn't say these words to him.

"Hmm........ I heard that His Royal Highness King Ling and Princess Ling are very affectionate, but there is ........ in this room Why is there no portrait of the two of them? Saying that, Liu Zijin smiled softly and said with a desire to cover up: "Ah....... The king has absolutely no offense, but ....... It's just a little curious, if His Royal Highness King Ling doesn't want to say it, it doesn't matter. ”

Xiao Ling sneered in his heart, I said how can I be interested in the paintings on this wall in a good manner, it turned out that I wanted to find out what the relationship between him and Su Lan was.

But....... Hehe......

"Where, these are the little things. It's just that the insiders don't like to be in the paintings, so they don't paint the insiders' paintings. Xiao Ling explained casually.

"Oh?" Liu Zijin raised his eyebrows lightly and asked curiously, "But....... How did I hear about it....... When Princess Ling was in the Chu Kingdom, she liked to paint portraits the most? Could it be that the rumors are false? ”

Xiao Ling's expression was a little colder, but he still looked calm, and said lightly: "The rumors can't be taken seriously, the fourth prince is so smart, how can he be confused by this rumor." ”

"Hehehe....... What Brother Xiao said is very true, but this king is confused........ Liu Zijin said casually, but he had a little bottom in his heart.

When he was in Chu State, he could be said to be the person who knew Su Lan best, and he knew what Su Lan had and what preferences he had. Among them, painting portraits is Su Lan's favorite thing. Liu Zijin once asked Su Lan curiously, "Why do you often ask painters to paint portraits for you?" Su Lan's answer, Liu Zijin still remembers, "Because I want to know, my changes year after year, I will burn my portrait to the underground concubine, so that he can see that his daughter is living a good life now." ”

When Liu Zijin heard this, his heart was full of distress, and he secretly said in his heart at that time that he must protect this cherished girl.........

So, Xiao Ling's words........ It's a clumsy excuse. Now it seems that the relationship between Su Lan and Xiao Ling is not as rumored, you and me, love like paint, as for what the relationship between the two of them is, he will figure it out........ ! Liu Zijin secretly swore in his heart.

....................................................................................................................

"Hehe, Brother Xiao doesn't have to be so alienated from this king, this king knows that Brother Xiao is actually the son of the late Chen Guifei, and Chen Guifei is a princess of the country, so according to this, this king and Brother Xiao are actually cousins." Liu Zijin said with a gentle smile.

Xiao Ling's eyes were dark, indeed, according to his generation, he and the four princes of the Suguo Kingdom were indeed cousins.

It's just that........ He had already gotten the news that this fourth prince of the country was actually the son of His Majesty who had returned from other places to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, and many people in the court doubted whether this person was really the heir of the royal family.

So he ....... And these four princes may not be cousins?! And........ Just as he wants to dig into his corner, even if it's really a cousin, so what?!

"Oh? Is it, this matter........ The king didn't quite understand it either. Xiao Ling vaguely revealed the matter.

Liu Zijin only smiled when he heard this, and did not explain anything else.

"Your Highness, the princess is here."

At this time, a subordinate slowly walked over and reported to Xiao Lingyu.

"Let the princess in."

It was the first time for Su Lan to walk into Yayuan so nervously, and he didn't expect that Yayuan would be so strange to her, Su Lan tightened her fists in her hands, and she felt that her palms were full of sweat........

Su Lan exhaled deeply, relieved himself, then raised his head and strode inside.

Liu Zijin's eyes were completely focused on Su Lan, who was a little different from what he remembered.......... Su Lan in his memory still has a little naïve and naughty with his daughter's family, but now he is dignified and generous, slim and elegant, and there is a feminine smell that seems to be absent between every line and movement.......... The feeling made him want to stop.........

"Your Highness, the Fourth Prince." Su Lan bowed politely.

This salute directly made the faces of the two of them change slightly.

Xiao Ling is Su Lan's nominal husband, and if the husband and wife raise their eyebrows, they should not salute their husband in front of outsiders, which is too rusty.

And Liu Zijin also felt that this trip was too rusty......... In his memory, Su Lan was still the little daughter who would be spoiled to him, but this time, it actually made him feel ........ There is actually a chasm between them.

Su Lan looked straight at him, without the slightest intention of dodging.

Right! That's it! Look squarely and don't dodge, so that she doesn't look cramped. Su Lan thought silently.

But when she was seated, Su Lan encountered a difficulty - Xiao Ling and Liu Zijin were sitting opposite, but her seat was ......... Wherever she sits, she approaches one of them and distances herself from the other.........
