Chapter 158: The Emperor Will Be Afraid of Inside

Su Qingyuan didn't know how Duan Ran "disposed of" Lu Junnuo. She only knew that when Lu Junnuo came to her the next day, he bowed to her for the first time, begging her for help and revenge.

Su Qingyuan is very happy to take on this kind of errand.

On April 28, the Emperor of Nanyue, Lu Li, made the decision to choose a son-in-law for Beiyan and Princess Jing and officiate in marriage.

Hearing this news, Duan Ran jumped up with a "whoa-" sound: "Choose a son-in-law?" What do you mean by 'choosing a son-in-law'? Didn't He Jing promise it to me a long time ago! ”

Lu Li was a little helpless: "Don't ask me, I'm only responsible for informing you, and I'm not in charge of other things." ”

Duan Ran was so angry that he almost vomited blood: "Lu Li, can you be a little more unproductive?" You are the Emperor! It's the emperor! Can you show a little bit of the evil spirit of being an emperor! ”

Lu Li spread his hands: "There is no way, the emperor will also be afraid of the inside." ”

Duan Ran sat on the ground and rolled around: "I don't care!" If you are afraid of the inside, you are afraid of the inside, why should you use my life's events to please your woman! If you lose my daughter-in-law this time, I'll tell you, it's my turn to rebel next! ”

Lu Li rubbed his sideburns and said distressedly: "It's useless for you to play tricks on me at this time-Princess Hejing has been waiting for a long time, if you don't go over, she will have to follow others......"

Before he finished his words, Duan Ran was gone.

In the royal garden "Penglai Treasure Land" outside the palace city, it is very lively.

The children of the family who are related to the members of the DPRK and the Central Committee, the famous ladies, the rich family who can spend a lot of money with a shot, the daughter who is raised in the splendid pile, the Qingjun Xiaosheng in the opera troupe, and the stunning Oiran in the Qinglou...... The young and outstanding men and women in the capital, as long as they have long legs, are afraid that they will all come.

They were all invited by Su Qing's post.

Princess Hejing was wearing a gorgeous red wedding dress, sitting behind the bead curtain, looking at Su Qingyuan nervously: "Niangniang, why do you ...... like this?"

Su Qingyuan looked at her with a smile, looking like a wolf grandmother: "Silly girl, I'm helping you!" You don't know the virtues of men - they don't cherish anything that comes easily! So if you want to be with Duan Ran for a long time, you have to hold up the princess's shelf, and let him pass five levels and kill six generals before he can marry you, understand? ”

He Jing seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and after a long while, he cautiously expressed his concern: "But what if it ......"

Su Qingyuan smiled: "In case he is not as good as others, you can take advantage of the situation to choose a better one among the group of people outside, this is a good thing!" If Duan Ran is not outstanding, why should he be Beiyan's concubine? ”

Princess Hejing was very flustered, but the docile temperament she had cultivated over the years prompted her to nod subconsciously.

Su Qingyuan slapped her face proudly: "Since you agree, let's start!" I suggest that you set up two literary exams and martial arts exams, and as for how to come up with the questions, you can make your own decisions. ”

He ...... Is it coming? Princess Hejing stood up nervously.

Su Qingyuan frowned and said, "It should be here, right?" If he doesn't come, he doesn't want to marry you, you should keep your eyes open and choose a good choice! ”

Princess Hejing bit the corner of her lip and looked out of the curtain for a long time, and finally sat down helplessly, bowed her head and commanded the maid.

Su Qingyuan pricked up his ears, and only heard the sentence "I wish to be a winged bird in heaven", which must be the topic of the literary exam.

In the garden outside, some of the young talents scratched their ears and cheeks, some had to meditate hard, and some were full of confidence and worked hard to write.

Among them, there is no Duan Ran.

Su Qingyuan saw Lu Junnuo hiding in the small pavilion, so she walked over and took his hand: "Your master is really late, are you happy?" ”

Lu Junnuo nodded heavily: "Happy!" It's best for him to come back in the evening, just in time to watch Princess Hejing worship with others! ”

Su Qingyuan casually patted his little head: "You kid is getting worse and worse!" ”

"The one who is close to the ink is black!" Lu Junnuo was not ashamed at all.

At this time, someone has already handed in the papers. Su Qingyuan likes to watch the excitement, so he led Lu Junnuo back to the pavilion.

Princess Hejing obviously didn't have much interest in these exam papers, so she didn't even look at them and let the maid put them aside.

However, Su Qingyuan was very curious, so he asked Lu Junnuo to take a few copies and take a few looks.

Among these exam papers are poems, articles, and even paintings, which are wonderful. It seems that Princess Hejing's topic is not very serious, but it gives a lot of room for talents to play, and it is an eye-opener for Su Qingyuan.

An hour later, all the exam papers had been handed in. Princess Hejing didn't even read a copy, still staring outside.

Lu Junnuo suddenly put it to Su Qingyu's ear and asked in a low voice, "Is the princess sad?" ”

Su Qingyuan nodded.

Lu Junnuo wrinkled his nose: "Princess Hejing is actually very good, I don't want her to be sad." ”

Su Qingyuan turned her face to look at him, and said seriously: "But Princess Hejing is good with your master, if you make your master sad, she will be sad." ”

Lu Junnuo was embarrassed.

Su Qingyuan lowered her head and said calmly: "When you grow up, there will be many such difficult things." Before you do anything, you have to think about what the consequences will be, how many people will be involved, how many people will be happy, and how many people will be sad. ”

Lu Junnuo tilted his little head and thought for a long time, then suddenly ran to Princess Hejing's side and timidly called "Master".

Princess Hejing was stunned for a moment, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

At this moment, a red shadow rushed in, it was Duan Gongzi who was belated.

Lu Junnuo immediately put away his well-behaved appearance, and said with his little hands behind his back: "The candidate is late, and the qualification for the test will be cancelled!" ”

Duan Ran casually picked him up and threw him aside, opened the bead curtain and rushed to Princess Hejing: "How can you honestly be at the mercy of them here?" Come with me, let's go to the church! ”

Su Qingyuan slowly stood up and frowned: "Duan Gongzi, this is your fault!" Today, the whole capital knows that Beiyan and Princess Jing are choosing a wife, you broke in so loudly and planned to abduct people, how can there be such a cheap thing? You say that the worship hall will worship the church, where is the majesty and honor of the golden branches and jade leaves of others? ”

Duan Ran was stunned for a long time before asking, "What do you want?" ”

Su Qingyuan closed her eyes and did not answer.

Princess Hejing shook off Duan Ran's hand and said calmly: "If you can defeat those people outside, the family affair will naturally be successful; If you are not sincere, but force me to go to worship just because you have eaten me, I will never agree. ”

Lu Junnuo quietly gave Princess Hejing a thumbs up.

"Okay, you wait for me!" Duan Ran turned around and was about to rush out.

Su Qingyuan was afraid that the world would not be chaotic: "Slow! You haven't handed in the paper yet! Other people's articles, Princess Hejing has already read them, and there are many people who are brilliant and have unique insights, if you can't do better, you don't have to participate in the martial arts test! ”

Lu Junnuo clapped his hands and smiled: "The question of the literary exam is 'Wishing to be a winged bird in heaven', I count 10,000 numbers, you must finish on time!" ”

Duan Ran nodded.

Lu Junnuo blinked his eyes and read in a straight voice: "One, ten thousand!" - Master, have you finished answering your papers? ”

"That's it!" Duan Ran threw down the pen and said in a matter-of-fact manner.

Lu Junnuo was stunned for a moment, and rushed forward to take his roll.

I saw black and white letters, and the dragon flew and the phoenix danced: "When the disaster comes, they fly separately." ”

Su Qingyuan stroked his palms and laughed.

Duan Ran flattened his mouth and looked at Princess Hejing pitifully: "We said that we would 'like to be a winged bird in heaven', but at this time, some ill-intentioned people are pouting a few words on the side, and you help them deal with me together, which really breaks my heart!" Our feelings are so fragile, if something doesn't go well in the future, how can we not work and fly apart? I can't accept that future, so let's-"

He turned slowly, pretending to be going out.

Su Qingyuan and Lu Junnuo showed disdain, and Princess Hejing was concerned and confused, and she couldn't tell the truth from the fake for a long time, so she hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed his hand.

Duan Ran was overjoyed: "You promised to go with me?" ”

Princess Hejing smiled and shook her head: "You passed the literary test." ”

Duan Ran frowned, a little dissatisfied.

But he soon became happy again, patted his chest and laughed loudly: "Wen has tried it, it's easy to do, you wait!" ”

"Hey, the princess hasn't said the rules of the martial arts test yet!" Lu Junnuo hurriedly chased out.

Duan Ran didn't care about that.

He strode into the garden, found a stone table and jumped on it, and said loudly: "Listen-I am Duan Ran, the captain of the light car, and the current emperor is my brother in life and death!" Someone in my Duan is determined to win Princess Hejing, and whoever wants to fight with me is an undying enemy of someone in my Duan! Whoever wants to compete with me at this time, let the horse come! ”

There was a "buzzing" of discussion in the garden, but no one stood up.

Su Qingyuan was stunned, and Lu Junnuo was also stunned.

Princess Hejing listened to the movement outside in the pavilion, crying and laughing.

Even Lu Li, who came in a hurry, could only shake his head helplessly.

This kind of fox and tiger power, Duan Ran has always been the best at it.

In terms of martial arts, Duan Ran may not be invincible in the world, but when it comes to tricks and tricks, there are almost no people in the world who can compare with him.

No one wants to be an "undying enemy" with a shameless villain who is protected by the current emperor. Therefore, these young talents, who were originally full of ambition, hesitated, retreated, and gave up.

Duan Ran stood on the stone table for about a quarter of an hour, watching the young talents in the garden retreat calmly and elegantly.

Then, he proudly jumped off the stone table and returned to the pavilion to give Princess Hejing a proud look.

Princess Hejing looked at Su Qingyuan worriedly.

Lu Li walked in and frowned: "Today, I and Ah Yuan are helping the princess open an examination room in the garden, in order to give you the opportunity to express your sincerity to the princess!" See for yourself what you do? Are you trying to tell the princess that you have to rely on your cheekiness and despicable means to marry this family? ”

"Changli, why don't you even help me......" Duan Ran lowered his head with a look of grievance.

Lu Li said helplessly: "That's it, I'll give you another chance!" ”

Duan Ran nodded frantically.

But when the question of the third test came in, he couldn't laugh.

The author of this question is not Princess Hejing, so she can't help much.

Duan Ran watched as the palace maids opened a heavy curtain in front of him, and dozens of women in red clothes and red dresses rushed in, lined up behind the curtain, and stretched out their hands in unison.

Xiao Luzi took out a red strip of cloth from his sleeve and covered Duan Ran's eyes without saying anything: "Duan Gongzi, offended!" ”

"Hey......" Duan Ran resisted very much.

Just as he tried to dodge, the women behind the curtain changed their order again, and they were all different from before.

Duan Ran pulled the strip of red cloth tied to his head, and wanted to cry without tears: "Does it have to be like this?" It's a curtain and a blindfold, what kind of trouble is this! ”

Su Qingyuan slapped her face and said with a smile: "The rules are very simple - there are a total of thirty-six women here, you only need to find the princess by touching your hands within a stick of incense, and today you will be selected!" ”

"Just kill me......" Duan Ran's face was already wrinkled like a bitter melon.

Lu Junnuo jumped and smiled: "Xiaoluzi, hurry up and light the incense!" Ladies and gentlemen, why don't you stretch out your pretty little hands? The person chosen by the master today is my wife! ”

Duan Ran was shocked: "What do you mean by this?!" ”

Su Qingyuan said leisurely: "It's literal!" You've put on your big red robe, how can you get back to you today? Regardless of whether you choose a princess or not, even if you hold hands, even if you are destined, how can you not take it home? ”

Duan Ran was stunned.

Lu Li reminded with a smile on the side: "The incense has been lit, you better hurry." ”

Duan Ran hurriedly shouted, "Left hand! Left hand! ”

"What's wrong, master? Haven't you taken the princess's right hand? Lu Junnuo asked with wide curious eyes.

Duan Ran was silent with a black face.

Lu Junnuo held his little hand behind his back and said in a deep voice: "A woman's hands are respected by the right, how can there be a reason to test the left hand?" This king commands you to stretch out your right hand. ”

Lu Li said with a smile: "King Ding'an is today's chief examiner, so let's take his proposal as the standard." ”

So a row of women behind the curtain stretched out their right hands in unison.

Su Qingyuan gloated and said: "Duan Gongzi, time is limited, you have to hurry!" ”

Duan Ran stiffened his head and stretched out his trembling hand.

Lu Junnuo clapped his little hands and smiled: "Princess, have you seen it?" Master, he touched the hands of other women! ”

Duan Ran hurriedly retracted his hand and blackened: "Today's events are all the pits you kid dug for me, aren't they?!" ”

Lu Junnuo stuck out his tongue and was triumphant.

The exam had begun, and Duan Ran had no chance to retreat, so he had to bite the bullet and touch those delicate and tender little hands, looking for them one by one.

The first one is definitely not, because Lu Junnuo said that it was "someone else's hand"; The second finger is thin and boneless; The third knuckle is rough and the bone is not beautiful; The fourth wrist is too flat, not a noble appearance; The fourth has very delicate skin, but the palm is thick, and it is likely that she is a fat girl; Fifth ......

The slippery and soft little hands touched it one by one, which was a blessing that Duan Ran couldn't ask for in the past, but today it caused him to sweat coldly and his legs to be weak.

When he touched the last one, Duan Ran raised his head with a bitter face: "Lu Li, where did you find these women?" ”

Su Qingyuan replied for Lu Li: "Don't worry, they are all good girls who have been talented and beautiful for twenty-eight years, and they will definitely not let you suffer!" ”

Duan Ran knew it in his heart.

The famous ladies in the capital often regard their reputation as more important than their lives, and most of them are arrogant, so how can they stand here in a row and touch the hands of strange men?

I don't know where these women came from!

Hearing Lu Junnuo's reminder that "it's almost time", Lu Li gritted his teeth and said proudly: "Among the thirty-six people, there is no Princess Hejing!" ”

"Wow!" Lu Junnuo slapped his face and let out an exclamation.

Duan Ran tore off the red cloth covering his face and asked in surprise, "Am I right?" ”

The curtain was removed, revealing the faces of the women behind him—sure enough, Princess Hejing was not included.

After the girls retreated, Princess Hejing walked out from behind the screen, her face expressionless.

Duan Ran leaned over with a grin.

Princess Hejing took two steps back and asked in a deep voice, "How do you know that I am not among those people?" ”

Duan Ran scratched his scalp, not knowing how to answer.

Actually, he guessed. But on such an important occasion, doesn't it seem too insincere to say "guess"?

His hesitation, in the eyes of Princess Hejing, was a different meaning.

"These days, everyone tells me that you are unreliable, I didn't believe it before, who knows ......" Princess Hejing lowered her head, tears in her eyes.

"What's going on? I can't be trusted! Duan Ran jumped up in a hurry.

Princess Hejing glared at him and was furious: "You haven't touched my right hand, how do you know that I'm not among those people?" Those women are all the top of the major green buildings, you didn't chase them before, right? You've touched all of their hands before, so you're pretty sure there's no me in them, aren't you? ”

"I didn't ......" Duan Ran wanted to cry without tears.

Su Qingyuan spread her hands: "Oh, what can I do about this?" I was going to congratulate Duan Gongzi! ”

Lu Li grabbed her waist, lowered his head and smiled: "That's it, it seems that he can't get married today!" Let's go to the garden outside to have a look, Cheng Yu and they have a poetry competition there, and the daughters of famous families are also painting butterflies in the peony garden next to it, which is lively! If we can achieve a few couples today, the congratulatory gifts we have prepared will not be out of order! ”

Su Qingyuan casually took Lu Junnuo by the hand and said with a smile: "That's great!" If the guests can achieve a good fate, we can be regarded as a host of immeasurable merit! ”

The two talked and laughed and went out together.

In the pavilion, Duan Ran kept bowing to Princess Hejing: "Your Royal Highness Princess, my little aunt and grandmother!" Did you hear the words of those two immoral ghosts? If we can't do this family affair today, the congratulatory gifts they have prepared will be given to others! You don't know how hateful those two people are, today's incident is obviously them—and Lu Junnuo's little ghost—they conspired to kill me! You and I are a family, how can we be pitted by those conscienceless people......"

"It makes sense." Princess Hejing was thoughtful.

"Huh?" Duan Ran hadn't come back to his senses yet.

Princess Hejing turned her back and chuckled: "Stupid!" Let's get ready for the wedding! ”

"Princess Shengming!" Duan Ran jumped three feet high.

Outside, Su Qingyuan, who hadn't gone far yet, heard this voice and immediately collapsed: "Oh no! ”

Lu Junnuo also pursed his mouth: "My wife seems to be getting more and more confused, what should I do?" ”

Lu Li hooked the corners of his lips, and his tone was flat: "Jun'er, don't worry about your master, think about yourself first-your master is a villain who will be revenged, this time you offended him, I'm afraid that the future will be difficult!" ”

"Hey!" Lu Junnuo was anxious, "Isn't today's matter the idea of the two of you?" ”

Lu Li spread his hands: "How come?" Ah Kite is to help you avenge this game, and you are the culprit; As for me- I'm just a fungiper, what's going on here? ”

"Brother Huang, you are simply too shameless......" Lu Junnuo wailed.

"Huh?" Lu Li frowned.

Lu Junnuo wanted to cry without tears: "I mean, the imperial brother is simply too wise and great!" ”

"Well, that's pretty much it." Lu Li's face is serious.

Su Qingyuan was unhappy: "Hey, why are you bullying my son again!" ”

Lu Li stood still, turned around, and glared at her: "You, say it again?" What's yours? ”

"My son!" Su Qingyi stiffened his neck, undaunted.

Lu Li was deflated: "Ah Kite-"

Su Qingyuan snorted and turned his back: "Don't call me!" You haven't been good yet! ”

Lu Junnuo took the opportunity to put his little face on Su Qingyuan's hand and rub it, and handed Lu Li a provocative look.

Duan Ran led Princess Hejing out of the pavilion, and when he saw this scene, he clapped his hands and laughed: "Wonderful! This is called a report and a report! ”

Lu Li glanced at him, lowered his head, and took Su Qingyuan's hand again: "Ah Kite, do you think that the congratulatory gift we prepared for Duan Ran is still too simple?" ”

Su Qingyuan nodded heavily: "It's really too simple!" With Duan Ran's friendship with you for so many years, you only gave him a house and 10,000 taels of gold, which is simply a dispatch called Huazi! Not to mention, I'm embarrassed to take out the glass frame screen and mutton fat jade bottle......"

"Well, what more?" Lu Li rubbed his sideburns and meditated.

Su Qingyuan pursed her lips and smiled: "Why don't you reward him with a few more beautiful palace maids?" Doesn't Duan Ran like this the most? ”

Lu Li nodded: "I have this intention." There are two or three little palace maids in Shangyi Prison, Duan Ran has been thinking about it since the year before last, I haven't had time to pay attention to these, this time by the way, I will ask Xiao Luzi to pick two more for him, which can be regarded as a worthy of our love over the years......"

"Lu Li, after so many years of friendship, you ...... You're amazing! Duan Ran gritted his teeth.

Lu Li frowned: "What?" Too little? ”

"No, no, no!" Duan Ran hurriedly raised his hands high, "Too much!" Seriously, Lu Li, now that South Vietnam has gone through war, the treasury is empty, and you don't have enough money, so the meaning of this congratulatory gift is okay, it's too heavy I am afraid that I can't afford it! I reluctantly accept the house and the golden and jade things, this beauty—you better keep it for yourself! ”

"My own brother, why be so polite?" Lu Li looked surprised.

Duan Ran slammed to the ground: "My own brothers, they should also be clear." The women in the palace are all emperors, how dare Duan think about it! ”
