As soon as the words fell, Xu Qingyue also nodded in agreement, and was about to turn around cautiously, when suddenly the scene in front of them suddenly lit up, and the two of them raised their eyes at the same time to look out the window, and it turned out that the lanterns on the opposite street were all lit up, and for a time this side of the world was illuminated as bright as day, and the lights scattered everywhere were reflected on the surface of the lake, like stars sinking at the bottom of the lake.

"Wow!" Both of them let out an exclamation at the same time, after all, it is an annual festival in the capital, no wonder there are so many people coming, the scene is spectacular.

"Miss Lu, look there." When Lu Linlang was still looking at the endless sea of lanterns in the distance, Xu Qingyue found something again, stretched out her hand and pointed out the window, Lu Linlang followed her fingers and saw a painting boat on the lake slowly coming towards the island in the middle of the lake.

The boat is also surrounded by lanterns, and the cabin has two floors, both of which are brightly lit, and they can see the guests sitting in the cabin dressed in luxurious clothes, accompanied by several enchanting dancing girls, which is a luxurious scene.

The painting boat floated slowly from the lake, as if floating in the air, and the guests on the island in the middle of the lake generally took it by boat, even their young master Nangong Yu took a small boat back and forth, what kind of guests did this painting boat become?

Could this also have something to do with Murong Zheng's plan? Lu Linlang frowned and looked at Xu Qingyue beside her, and her heart jumped violently, "Probably which distinguished guest, let's go down first, and move lightly." ”

"Okay." Xu Qingyue nodded, and walked down from the window with Lu Linlang's arm, the stairs of the Huxin Building were wooden, and it was impossible not to make a sound when stepping on it, and the two of them held hands and tried to lighten their steps as much as possible, for fear of alarming the people below.

As soon as Su Liuli got on the island, she walked straight into the Huxin Building, thinking that the surprise that the regent and the king of Annan were already waiting for her, but there were no other guests in the lobby except for the lanterns used for decoration.

Murong Zheng followed behind her, seeing her eyes wandering around, "What is the county lord looking for?" ”

"It's nothing, it's the first time I've come here, and I think it's new, so take a look around, Brother Zheng, are you also here for the first time?" Su Liuli hurriedly retracted her gaze, approached Murong Zheng's side, and reached out to grab his arm.

Murong Zheng turned around abruptly, Su Liuli grabbed the air, shook his fingers weakly, and then raised his eyes and smiled lightly, "The one who was with you just now is your friend?" How come I haven't seen it before? ”

"He often goes out day and night, wandering away from the flower street and willow lane, so naturally you can't see him." Murong Zheng walked to the side and sat down, poured himself another cup of tea, and raised his eyes to look at the lake outside.

The water surface was sparkling and reflecting a little light, and the huge painting boat was getting closer and closer to the lake building, and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he heard a few soft sounds from the stairs above his head.

Lu Linlang pulled Xu Qingyue down from upstairs, and saw Murong Zheng sitting in the hall, with a little smile on Su Liuli's face next to him, and when he saw them appear, he was a little puzzled, and turned into disgust.

"Miss Lu, why are you here?"

"County Lord." Lu Linlang and Xu Qingyue stood on the stairs and saluted her, and then strode down, "I didn't expect the county lord to come over today, what a coincidence." ”

"Didn't Miss Lu say that she couldn't finish her busy work every day, so how could she still have time to hang out? Did you start making my dress? As soon as I saw Lu Linlang and Su Liuli, I remembered that when I met Li Ruohong just now, she had already made her show off in front of her twice, but this Lu Linlang didn't make her clothes first, it seemed that she wanted to embarrass her.

If it weren't for Murong Zheng's face, she would have sent someone to bring Lu Linlang into the Annan Palace, so that she could only make clothes for her alone, but Murong Zheng lived next door to her, and if there was any trouble, it would inevitably be associated with her.

"I brought her here." Murong Zheng on the side spoke lightly, Lu Linlang squinted at him, gently pursed the corners of her lips and did not speak, she knew that Murong Zheng was helping her out of the siege in front of Su Liuli.

Su Liuli is the county lord, and he is the person with the highest status here, if he is unhappy, it is not impossible to throw Lu Linlang into the lake outside on the spot.

"Yes, Miss Lu is very tired from working hard to make clothes every day, and Brother Murong is also worried that Miss Lu is tired, so he specially took her out to visit the Lantern Festival, so as to relax." Xu Qingyue also helped Lu Linlang say something on the side, but attracted Su Liuli's gaze to her.

"Isn't this Miss Xu from the Xu Family Chamber of Commerce? Come to the Lantern Festival, what are you doing wrapped in a big cape? ”

Most of the businessmen in the capital who look down on them are officials, not to mention that Su Liuli is the county lord, and even more despises these businessmen who just have a few stinky money at home and don't want to be outside, in her eyes Xu Qingyue is even worse than Lu Linlang.

Xu Qingyue didn't expect Su Liuli to turn her head to taunt her, she was slightly stunned, her face turned red, Lu Linlang took a step forward and blocked in front of her, "Miss Xu is infected with the wind and cold, and she is a little afraid of the cold, so she is wearing a cloak, and the county lord should stay away from us, so as not to infect you." ”

Hearing Lu Linlang say this, Su Liuli immediately took a few steps back in disgust, raised her hand and fanned her nose, and retreated directly to Murong Zheng's side, "Brother Zheng, I heard that this lake center building is built very high, let's go upstairs and have a look." ”

As he was talking, he suddenly heard a hearty laugh outside, this voice sounded familiar, Su Liuli couldn't help frowning, and glanced at Lilac next to her, Lilac immediately walked quickly to the door, and then quickly turned back.

"County Lord, it's the prince and the regent who have arrived."

As soon as Lilac's words fell, Murong Zheng's expression immediately tensed, Lu Linlang just raised his eyes to see the change in his expression, and his heart also tightened, it seems that tonight's highlight is coming.

"I heard that the Nangong family wasted tens of millions of taels of gold in order to build this lake-center building, and now I see that it really deserves its reputation."

As soon as this rough voice sounded, Murong Zheng immediately clenched his fists, and Lu Linlang saw that the green tendons on the back of his hand were violent, bit his lower lip, and moved to his side lightly and touched him gently.

The owner of this voice will also recognize it even if it turns into ashes, and the regent Long Xiang is walking up the steps with his hands behind his back, smiling, and behind him are King Annan and a young man who looks a little pale.

Long Feichi clenched his hands into fists, put them against his lips and coughed twice, raised his eyes lightly to look at the luxurious restaurant in front of him, and glanced at the hall by the way, Murong Zheng's figure was the most obviously tall and straight, and there was a petite figure beside him.

"Uncle Wang travels around all day, I thought you had already been here in this Huxin Building."

"Thanks to the blessing of the prince, this king is also the first time to come here today." Long Xiang picked his eyes, his arrogance was undisguised, even if he took the emperor on a trip, he had to walk in front, and no one around him dared to accuse him.

When Lu Linlang touched Murong Zheng's arm, he only felt that his muscles were already tense, and he looked ready to attack, and even she became nervous, as if he would rush out like a cheetah and grab one of his prey in the next second.

"Calm down, Miss Xu is still there." Lu Linlang couldn't help but tug at his sleeve, Murong Zheng withdrew his eyes and lowered his eyes, looked at Lu Linlang's hand that was tugging on his sleeve, and suddenly turned around and walked back.

In the next second, Long Xiang had already raised his feet and walked into the hall, and in an instant, Murong Zheng had already hid in the screen behind him, and for some reason even Lu Linlang breathed a sigh of relief, although she didn't know exactly what the identities of these people in front of her were, just by looking at this posture, she knew that they were by no means ordinary people.

"Father, Uncle Wang, you are here." Su Liuli's eyes lit up slightly when she saw King Annan and King Regent appear, and then took two steps forward and saluted them, and Lu Linlang and Xu Qingyue also hurriedly followed behind and bowed.

It was the two princes, but the young man behind them looked like he had an extraordinary temperament, but he seemed to be a little weak, his face was a little pale, but his eyebrows and eyes exuded majesty......

"It turns out that Liuli has arrived." As soon as Long Xiang entered the door, he saw Su Liuli's dress today, but he frowned slightly, although he did change into a gorgeous dress, it didn't change much compared to the past, but with her appearance, it didn't have much impact.

Long Xiang and King Annan took Long Feichi to sit down on the upper seat of the hall, and the servants and maids in the lake center tower poured out from the side, sending melons and fruits and snacks that had been prepared long ago, as well as mellow wine.

Almost instantly, the restaurant that was still cold and deserted suddenly became very lively at the moment, Lu Linlang and Xu Qingyue stood silently on the side to observe the situation, and there were musicians playing music next to them, which was like the spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River with a little sadness.

Such a beautiful scenery outside, with some sad music, is really a bit of a waste, Xu Qingyue silently leaned next to Lu Linlang, "Those two are the prince, and the other should be the prince, right?" ”

"It's not." Lu Linlang shook her head gently, but for the time being, she couldn't tell Xu Qingyue the truth, she was going to enter the palace draft in a month, and now was not the time to meet the emperor head-on.

"Ruri, come here." Su Liuli was called over by the regent and arranged in the seat next to Long Feichi, "I happened to meet here today, so you can have a drink with us here, King Annan won't mind, right?" ”

"Naturally not, this is all Liuli's honor." King Annan nodded again and again, looking at Su Liuli being able to sit at the same table with the emperor, he had already imagined that her daughter would sit on the throne of the queen, and half of the country in Yunxia would be his.

Lu Linlang was still a little nervous at first, but seeing that these princes didn't take them in their eyes at all, he gradually calmed down, and he vaguely saw some eyebrows when he observed from the side, Su Liuli didn't come by chance, someone should have arranged it in advance, just like Murong Zheng arranged for her to bring Xu Qingyue over.
