"For the eldest lady."

Lin Mumu took the letter suspiciously. "Who gave it to me?" There was no payment on the envelope, and when she opened it, she instantly understood who had written it.

The letter contained only a short sentence and told her to meet at the painting boat on the outskirts of the city tomorrow afternoon.

Lin Mumu snorted, directly tore up the letter and threw it into the basin.

"Die, who gave you this letter?"

"It's Major General Mingyang of the Imperial Palace."

"In the future, no one in the Imperial Mansion will give you anything, and you will not be allowed to bring it to me again!"

Looking at Lin Mumu's unhappy expression, he felt that he had done something wrong. "The eldest lady is angry, and the slave is ignorant, please ask the eldest lady to punish her."

"Forget it, you didn't do anything for him, you just handed over a letter, and it wasn't much of a mistake."

"The slave will not make decisions for the eldest lady next time."

"Miss, what did the king write in your letter to make the lady so angry?" Shuangshuang said curiously.

Lin Mumu glanced at her coldly. "Shuangshuang, have you ever heard a word?"

Shuangshuang looked puzzled. "What did the eldest lady say?"

"Curiosity kills cats!"

No matter how stupid Shuangshuang was, he knew what this meant, so he obediently closed his mouth.

Lying on the bed after bathing at night, the depression in Lin Mumu's heart still couldn't be suppressed.

She didn't know what the hell Zhao Xuanling was doing, and now she couldn't get along with Nangong Allure and think of her again?! really treats her as a 10,000-year-old spare tire, does she look so easy to coax and deceive!

It's true that she doesn't want to be scattered, but that doesn't mean she'll go to the dust for this lowliness!

……

Royal Palace, inside the Imperial Garden.

There is a water pavilion in the Imperial Garden, and Emperor Showa usually likes to drink a few drinks alone in the water pavilion when he has nothing to do, which is his rare leisure time.

At this time, Emperor Showa, who had changed into a dragon robe and was only wearing a pale yellow regular robe, was sitting in the water pavilion, and opposite him was Zhao Xuanling, who was wearing a light blue robe.

Emperor Showa picked up the flask and poured a glass of wine for Zhao Xuanling. "Come to Lao Jiu, I haven't drunk with you like this for a long time, and I won't get drunk tonight!"

Emperor Showa raised his glass and drank it all.

Zhao Xuanling picked up the wine glass on the table and pecked it shallowly.

"You won't blame me about Princess Crescent, will you?" After a few glasses of wine, Emperor Showa looked at Zhao Xuanling with some drunken eyes.

Zhao Xuanling lowered his eyes and exhausted the emotions in his eyes. "The emperor is also for the sake of royal face, how dare the minister blame the emperor."

Emperor Showa pushed him with the strength of the wine. "Listen to this, I know that you are strange in your heart, but you have also seen the events of that day, if I don't give them marriage, if this matter is spread out, how will I have royal face? Lao Jiu, there are thousands of women in this world, if you like the beauty, I will immediately order it to be sent to your house, ten, fifty, one hundred are as you choose, but this crescent princess, you will forget it. ”

Zhao Xuanling didn't respond, but the aura emanating from his body was cold.

Emperor Showa's drunken eyes narrowed, and he drank several more glasses of wine.

"Thank you for the emperor's kindness, the minister will not take a concubine before marrying a wife."

"You, you've been so stubborn since you were a child, even the emperor couldn't help you, it's just that, if you don't like it, forget it, I won't force you."

"Thank you for your understanding."

"You say, I gave those sons a marriage, should I let them hold a wedding on the same day, so that Xijing can be lively?"

"Everything is arranged by the emperor."

"You're just a boring person, whatever I say will only follow me, and it's very boring."

Half an hour later, Emperor Showa was already humming a little song in the water pavilion.

Zhao Xuanling glanced at the wine jar that had been drunk, and helped Emperor Showa to stand up. "The emperor is drunk, help the emperor back to the palace."

"Yes." Li Anli immediately stepped forward with two chamberlains to hold the unstable Emperor Showa.

"It's not too early, and the minister is leaving."

"Eh, Lao Jiu, don't go, drink two more drinks with me, I haven't finished drinking today!" Emperor Showa wanted to leave people behind with a big tongue.

Zhao Xuanling nodded at Li Anli, Li Anli understood, and helped Emperor Showa to the dormitory.

Although the palace has been locked, Zhao Xuanling was not hindered when he left the palace.

Out of the palace gate, Zhao Xuanling got into the carriage.

"Lord Wang, the letter has been delivered to the Lin Mansion."

"Hmm."

"I haven't received a reply from Miss Lin yet."

As soon as these words came out, there was no response in the carriage, and Mingyang was not Zhao Xuanling's thoughts, so he could only drive the carriage to the Imperial Palace.

In the carriage, Zhao Xuanling was half-leaning on the soft pillow, and his hand subconsciously touched his thumb, but he felt empty.

He forgot that the wrench had been given to Lin Mumu as a token of promise.

Although this girl always looks flattering and laughing in front of him, he knows that her temperament is not small, and this time he is afraid that he will be angry with him again.

On the other side, after Li Anli asked Emperor Showa to help him back to the palace, he waited for him to wash and helped him to the bed and lay down.

Li Anli tucked the quilt for Emperor Showa and quietly retreated.

At the moment when the door of the temple closed, Emperor Showa, who should have been drunk, opened his eyes.

"Nightshade."

A ghostly figure emerged from behind the dragon's bed. "The subordinates are here."

"I asked you to find out about the previous involvement between the Imperial King and the Western Chu Kingdom, but what did you find?"

"Back to the emperor, there is no clear message reply for the time being."

Emperor Showa coldly hooked the corners of his lips, he never believed that Zhao Xuanling was an emotional person, let alone get along with Nangong Allure for no reason, if he was really a person who would be blinded by beauty, he would not let him be dike for so many years.

"Keep looking, and tell me as soon as you have any news."

"Yes."

……

The first golden light in the morning shone into the house through the window paper, Lin Mumu stretched out in the quilt and slowly opened her eyes.

"Ahh

The sudden appearance of an enlarged face in front of her startled her.

"Azhu, when did you come, why didn't people call me?"

Lan Qinzhu slowly moved her face away from Lin Mumu's face.

Hearing the movement, Qiaoqiao and they walked in one after another. "What's wrong with the eldest lady?"

"Why didn't you wake me up when Miss Lan came?"

"I didn't let them scream." Lan Qinzhu said. "I'm here today to tell you."

Lin Mumu glanced at them and motioned for them to go out.

Both of them understood, and when they exited, they closed the door by the way.

"What do you have to say when you come early in the morning?"

Lan Qinzhu stood in front of her bed and looked at her with her hands on her hips. "Lin Mumu, I've decided that I want to compete fairly with you!"

"Uh...... Competition for what? ”

"Competition for the position in Fang Zhenxuan's heart!"

Lin Mumu: "......, I can say that I don't want to be involved with you at all."

The competition?

"Azhu, I have to make this matter clear to you."

"Say whatever you want."

"I don't like Fang Gongzi."

Lan Qinzhu looked incredulous. "I saw you and him that day...... You still want to lie to me if you are so close to him, if you like it, just say it's no big deal, I, Lan Qinzhu, am not a person who can't afford to lose! ”

How would she explain this?

"When did I become so close to him? Tell me about it! ”

"That's it, just I saw him looking at you with a gentle face, and I will give you back your hair!"

"Okay, I'm not going to compete with you." What kind of eyes did Fang Zhenxuan look at her, she really didn't notice, as for Shun Fa, why didn't she know when!

"You, why are you like this, I have said ......"

"I also said, he's not the person I like, what am I competing with you? What you saw before was a misunderstanding, I didn't mean anything to him, what do you want me to say before you can believe it? ”

Lan Qinzhu saw that she was sure of it, and she couldn't be sure for a while. "What you said is true?"

"If I like him, what did I do with you last time I went to the king?"

"Then, then you may be about to give up on the king because he is heartbroken with Princess Crescent......"

"Is it really that easy to give up if you like someone?"

This rhetorical question made Lan Qinzhu speechless, if she really gave up so easily, she would not have come to the Lin Mansion early in the morning to tell Lin Mumu that she wanted to compete fairly.

"Ah Zhu, although we haven't known each other for a long time, I have always regarded you as my friend, you know my character, yes, no, no, I won't deceive you because of this, I don't like Fang Gongzi, I will try to minimize too much contact with him in the future, so that you can always believe what I say, right?"

Lan Qinzhu actually had another answer in her heart. "You don't like him, but you can't bear to like you......"

Fang Zhenxuan likes her?

Lin Mumu twisted her eyebrows and felt that this possibility was not too great, after all, the two had almost no contact after she treated him before. "You don't have any evidence for this, so you can't talk nonsense."

"I can see how differently he looks at you." Lan Qinzhu's heart was sour, if Fang Zhenxuan looked at her with such eyes, she would be so happy that she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night.

"Ah Zhu, no matter who Fang Gongzi likes, I won't like him, I don't want our friendship to be affected because of this incident, I can assure you that I will never be with him in my life."

Lan Qinzhu pursed her lips. "Actually, it doesn't matter if you really like him, I, Lan Qinzhu, am not a stingy person, but since you said so, I will believe you."

"Really? Will you trust me? Lin Mumu, a friend of Lan Qinzhu, still cares a lot, and feels that it is not easy for me to meet such a girl with such a true temperament and righteousness.

Lan Qinzhu raised her eyebrows. "Why do you still doubt my words, when did my Lan Qinzhu speak is not a word."

Lin Mumu laughed. "Yes, yes, it's not too early, I'm going to report to the women's medical office, and I'll look for you when I get out later?"

"Whatever you want, seeing that you are so busy that it makes me feel like I have a very idle day."

Lin Mumu didn't fight with her, and after washing and changing clothes, he went out of the Lin Mansion with her.

Lin Mumu was stopped by Mingyang as soon as she arrived at the Women's Medical Office.

"Lord Lin."

Lin Mumu was angry with Zhao Xuanling, but Mingyang was innocent in the end, and she didn't play face with him directly. "Major General Ming has something to do with the next official?"
