After the martial arts test, the holy car returned to Luan, and the ministers followed, and the students dispersed.

Qingxuan held a food box tightly in her arms, as if she was protecting a baby, for fear of being touched, and her tone was slightly resentful: "Girl, the emperor made you a wish, why do you just need a plate of pastries?" ”

Yan Ran chuckled and said: "I'm just archery and Princess Dan are tied, and I haven't made any contributions, if I make too many demands, wouldn't I not know how to be responsible?" ”

Emperor Sheng promised to grant the winner a wish, and since Yan Ran and Princess Dan had a draw, both of them could make a request.

Duke Dan asked for a bow and arrow, and Yan Ran begged for a plate of imperial pastries, saying that he wanted to take them back to his grandmother, mother, and younger siblings at home to try.

Emperor Sheng praised her for her filial piety, and directly filled her with a box full of pastries, all of which were only eaten in the palace, and she couldn't see them outside at all.

The emperor gave food, but it was a great honor, and the girls were envious, thinking that if they had been braver at the beginning, maybe they would have been the ones who would have received the reward now.

Jin Luanjun's face was pale, she originally wanted to embarrass Yan Ran, but she never thought that she would be in the limelight!

Yan Ran was thinking of Lord Jinluan, and this person appeared in front of her, blocking her way.

"Miss Yan is really lucky, she is famous in the literary and martial arts examinations, congratulations!"

The county lord of Jinluan stared at Yan Ran viciously, and his tone was extremely cynical.

Yan Ran was not moved at all, but smiled back: "Thank you to the county lord for your success." ”

"You!"

The county lord of Jinluan was already holding his breath, but when he was provoked by Yan Ran like this, he was even more angry, and he raised his hand to fight him.

Yan Ran hurriedly took the food box in Qingxuan's hand, blocked it in front of him, and said quickly: "County lord beware, this is a royal gift, if you touch it, it will be a great sin of disrespect!" ”

The county lord of Jinluan retracted his strength, raised his arm and pointed at Yan Ran, and said angrily: "Yan Ran, don't be too proud!" Even if you are in the limelight these two days, even if the little grandfather looks at you differently, he can't change your background! Your biological mother is just a country woman, and the eldest princess will never let you enter the door of the Dingguo Mansion! ”

Yan Ran looked at the county lord of Jinluan, showing a suddenly realized expression: "Oh, it turns out that the county lord has targeted me several times, because he is afraid that he will not be able to enter the door of the Dingguo Mansion!" ”

Yan Ran deliberately aggravated the last few words, and the ridicule and ridicule in his tone made the county lord of Jinluan ashamed.

What girl would talk about marriage and be so provocative in public?!

The county lord of Jinluan was so excited for a moment that he actually told his heart, and he couldn't help but be ashamed.

Yan Ran had enough of appreciating the changing colors on the face of the county lord of Jinluan, and then said faintly: "Don't worry, the county lord, my relationship with the little grandfather is just cousins. Previously, the little grandfather stood up for me and accused Miss Cui, but it was just because of this relationship. I know that my status is humble, and I will never think anything wrong about my little grandfather. ”

The county lord of Jinluan looked at Yan Ran in a daze, and was stunned by her words.

I didn't expect Yan Ran to be so self-aware, so why did she jump up and down before?

Yan Ran looked at the look of the county lord of Jinluan, smiled with satisfaction, and continued: "County lord, the little grandfather is the dragon and phoenix among the people, and nine out of ten women who admire him, and there are many people whose family background and identity match. As the county lord said, my humble status is among them, so why should I be afraid? It's someone with ulterior motives on the side, the county lord must keep his eyes open, don't make a bamboo basket for water, and finally make a wedding dress for others in vain. ”

Lord Jinluan's face changed suddenly, and she remembered that all her previous hostility and targeting of Yan Ran were all caused by Cui Jingshi intentionally or unintentionally.

Thinking of Wen Chengyan's disgusting gaze every time she broke through her persecution of Yan Ran, I couldn't help but tremble all over.

Isn't it, Cui Jingshi is also interested in Wen Chengyan, so she uses her to deal with Yan Ran, and at the same time ruins her image in Wen Chengyan's heart?

Killing two birds with one stone, Cui Jingshi is really calculating!

Jin Luan stomped his feet angrily, turned around angrily and walked away.

Yan Ran sneered and got into the carriage.

Qingxuan then came up and said depressedly: "Girl, even if you want to prove your innocence to the county lord of Jinluan, you can't depreciate yourself like this!" ”

Yan Ran didn't care, and laughed at herself: "What identity do I have now, but I am struggling to survive in the hands of my eccentric father and vicious stepmother, and the nominal eldest daughter of the Yan Mansion, it is nothing to depreciate." Identity, status, reputation, power, one day, I will earn it myself! ”

Qingxuan looked at the confident and proud Yan Ran, and the depression and humiliation that had just been wrapped in her heart all disappeared.

She did not hesitate to believe that her girl was like a pearl covered with dust, and she would eventually shine, she had such an ability, and she should be so high-spirited!

Yan Ran took a car to Wufangzhai and bought a pine milk fruit cake.

Wufangzhai's pastries are the most famous in Anyang City, among which pine milk fruit cake is the most popular, even if it is difficult to buy in line.

If Yan Ran hadn't spent a lot of money to book in advance, it would have been sold out long ago.

After buying the pastries, Yan Ran went to the post house again, planning to visit Princess Dan, and by the way, ask someone to bring a letter to her uncle.

As early as yesterday's literary exam, Princess Dan's words gave Yan Ran a chance to defend herself, and she planned to come to thank her, so she booked the pastries in advance.

Who knew that today, Yan Ran was able to solve the predicament thanks to the help of Princess Mengdan.

rescued her twice, but she only prepared a pastry, which really looked a little shabby.

When Yan Ran came to the inn, Princess Dan had just come out of the bath.

She was wearing a crimson bedrobe, covered with light gauze, scattered green silk, ice muscles and jade bones, and her spirit was noble.

is also a woman, Yan Ran can't help but be a little moved.

The so-called Gu shot the gods, nothing more than that.

Yan Ran got up and said, "The little girl is here to thank Princess Mengdan for her help." A small gift, not a tribute, but also a smile. ”

Princess Dan sat on the couch casually, bent one leg, and supported her cheeks with her fists, like a merry son, free and easy.

She glanced at the beautifully packaged pastries lightly, and looked at Yan Ran with interest: "I have helped Miss Yan more than once, but Miss Yan only brought a pastry as a thank you gift, which does not seem sincere." ”

Yan Ran's face was as usual, and she didn't feel rude, and shot back quietly: "Princess Dan came to Shengguo to borrow troops from Shengguo, and she should have no intention of displeasing the emperor." In this case, it is not me today, if it is any other girl, Princess Dan will also show mercy to her subordinates, so as not to let the other party lose too badly, so as not to lose the emperor's face. ”

Yan Ran's implication is that Princess Dan is not only helping her, but also fulfilling herself, so there is no need to ask for credit.

Princess Dan didn't feel annoyed, but smiled lightly and said approvingly: "Miss Yan is really smart and worthy of being the leader in the literary test." ”

Yan Ran paused, and then said: "Speaking of the literary examination, although I am very grateful to Princess Dan for speaking out, which gave me the opportunity to prove my innocence. But I don't know if Princess Dan really wants to help me, or if she has another purpose? ”

Princess Dan looked surprised, obviously she didn't expect Yan Ran to doubt her: "Why do you say this?" ”

Yan Ran said: "Princess Dan and I have never known each other in our lives, so I shouldn't know if I have real talent and learning. If I really cheat, and Princess Dan proposes to let the emperor take the school examination in person, won't it make me slap myself in the face and ruin my reputation? ”

Princess Dan was slightly stunned, thinking that the county lord of Jinluan used Yan Yao's words to accuse her, and probably guessed her situation in Yan's mansion.

She couldn't help but sigh lightly and said apologetically: "Your father is a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, and he was born as a champion, and you read and learned calligraphy when you were young. How could I have thought that after your mother's death, he would not teach you? I really didn't think about it. ”

Yan Ran was vigilant: "How could Princess Dan know about my childhood?" ”

Princess Dan did not answer, but took out a letter from under the pillow and handed it to Yan Ran.

Yan Ran took the letter with precautions and doubts, only to see that the envelope read: Anyang City Rite Department Shangshu Yan Mansion, the eldest daughter Yan Ran personally opened.

Yan Ran was taken aback: "This is, uncle's handwriting?!" ”

Princess Dan sat up straight, nodded and explained: "The eastern part of the Ling Kingdom borders Beining City, and Mobei often invades, and our army and the Beining Army fight side by side and have established a deep friendship. Your cousin Yun Shu and I are also close friends, and she entrusted me to bring this letter to you. ”

No wonder Princess Dan is partial to each other and knows something about her!

Yan Ran opened the envelope excitedly, and sure enough, there were two letters inside, written by her uncle and cousin.

In his previous life, his uncle had not received a reply from Yan Ran for a long time, and he thought that Princess Todan should have brought a letter.

It's just that at that time, Yan Ran never had the opportunity to go out, so it was impossible to meet Princess Dan, so this letter was naturally missed.

Yan Ran read the letter, and she was already in tears.

The uncle was full of guilt and concern between the lines, and his words were carefully worded, because he failed to rush back to send Zhang's last journey, and failed to fulfill his responsibility to take care of Yan Ran, thinking that Yan Ran was blaming him for not contacting him.

As everyone knows, all this is the ghost of the Wen family!

Yan Ran also took out the letter to be sent and handed it to Princess Dan: "I also wanted to ask someone to bring the letter to my uncle, so I asked the princess to hand it over on my behalf!" ”

Princess Dan happily agreed: "Okay." ”

Yan Ran asked again: "I still don't know something, why does the princess want to compete with others in archery today, but it was arranged before?" ”

Princess Dan shook her head and sighed, "Today's matter was proposed by the eldest princess of Minyang. As you said, I am on this trip to ask for the prosperity of the country, and I want to lower my posture. Since the eldest princess made a request, I naturally had no reason to refuse. ”

Yan Ran was like an initiation, and all the doubts in the past were solved.

It turned out that the person who had always wanted to take her life and ruin her reputation was the eldest princess of Minyang!

*

Dingguo Mansion.

Minyang threw several valuable jade cups and glazed bottles, and he was angry: "What a Yan Ran, she dodged it again!" ”

Lanzhi echoed from the side: "That Miss Yan's luck is also too good, she didn't fall to death last time, but this time she was blocked by Princess Dan!" ”

Minyang said hatefully: "How can you do it with good luck?" Sure enough, as Yu Niang said, her scheming city is very deep, and she is as poisonous as a snake and scorpion! This kind of goods, dare to seduce my Yan'er? ”

Laneige persuaded: "Perhaps, this time it is indeed a coincidence, right?" Princess Nadan didn't know her, why did she help her? ”

Minyang sneered: "She is so skillful, who knows if she poured some ecstasy soup into Princess Dan!" ”

Min Yang said, and slapped the table angrily.

Lanzhi was afraid that she would be angry, so she hurriedly changed the topic and said, "I didn't expect the eldest prince to play today, and the results seem to be pretty good." ”

Minyang's cold eyes narrowed slightly: "Hmph, that thing that doesn't know whether to live or die, does it still want to compete with Yan'er?" Laneige, the eldest prince should be tired from the school examination today, send him a bowl of medicine! ”

Lanzhi answered, and just as he was about to go down to give an order, a servant girl hurriedly came in and said, "Your Highness, the eldest prince is injured and vomits blood, and the blood is poured out one by one!" Wen Qi came to see him and wanted to ask a doctor to take a look! ”

Minyang was very relieved when he heard that Wen Rongan vomited blood, and his anger dissipated a lot, and he mocked: "Heh, useless thing." ”

Lanzhi asked cautiously, "Your Highness, what about this medicine......"

Min Yang snorted coldly: "His body is no longer useful, so this palace doesn't have to bother." Otherwise, he died at the hands of Bengong, and Bengong would have to bear the reputation of being treated harshly. ”

Min Yang said, as if he had thought of something funny, showed a weird and gloomy smile, and muttered: "A sick man, a stupid and poisonous woman, they are very compatible!" ”
