Chapter 23 Elder Couples
The corners of Feng Jinxuan's mouth twitched, and he got up and wanted to ask the assassin how he was going to solve it, but when he turned around, he saw that the assassin who had only been pointed at the acupoint was dead at this moment, and a small blood mark on his neck explained the cause of his death.
Feng Jinxuan raised his hand and touched his chin, this Ling boy's cultivation seemed to have improved again, and it was really unfathomable.
Mu Ran was thinking about it, when he heard some extremely slight footsteps suddenly appear in the originally quiet courtyard, he couldn't help but be startled, his mind was concentrated, and he quickly collected his expression, revealing a look of fear and helplessness.
The sound of footsteps approached, the door was opened, and the cold wind suddenly poured in, making her shiver slightly.
There was no light in the room, and although the two people who came in were holding lanterns in their hands, they couldn't illuminate much of the area, and Mu Ran could only distinguish that they were unfamiliar faces.
But when another person walked in the doorway, she was stunned.
Even if the dim light only illuminates the vague outline of the other party, but after ten years of getting along, although it will not turn into ashes, it can be distinguished from the outline at a glance.
Within one day, I met two men who I didn't want to see in a short period of time, and they were all unprepared.
Especially Feng Linglang, she didn't expect that their first meeting would be in such a situation, so she is in the palace now? But why him?
Feng Linglang's cultivation is not low, and there is no obstacle to him in the night, even if Mu Ran is deep in the darkness, he can see any trace of emotion on his face and eyes clearly.
This woman is really not stupid, so what is the purpose of her enduring humiliation and pretending to be stupid to walk on thin ice in the Hou Mansion? Thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but chill a little.
At this time, there were already guards in the house who lit the candles, and the dazzling light instantly occupied the entire room, exposing everyone to the candlelight.
Because he was not adapted, Mu Ran subconsciously closed his eyes, but he also took this opportunity to hide the look in his eyes in time, and when he opened his eyes again, he had already regained his clarity.
Originally, she should have pretended to be crazy and stupid at this time, but for some reason, under the very aggressive gaze of that person, she couldn't pretend anymore, and she was a little reluctant to pretend, she didn't want to expose such an embarrassed side in front of this person, maybe it was a habit in her previous life, Ling Muran in front of Feng Linglang will always be in the most perfect state.
The two looked at each other like this for a while, relatively speechless
After a while, Feng Linglang made a move first, raised his hand and made a backward gesture, signaling the people around him to exit the room.
The guards around him were ordered, and they exited the room and closed the door.
Mu Ran's gaze fell on the closed door inexplicably, and then turned back to Feng Linglang's face, breathing.
Maybe for Feng Linglang, this is just an ordinary meeting between them, but for her, it is different, no matter how much psychological construction she has done before, the emotions she tries her best to suppress at this moment are still a little out of control in her eyes.
The strange and cold look, like an ice knife cutting at the heart, from the feeling of that tea house, she knew that she was not as free and easy as she imagined, so easy to put down, the only thing she could rely on was time, but she didn't expect the meeting to come so quickly, so unprepared.
"What does the man in black who grabbed you have to do with you?" The mixed emotions in the other party's eyes were just like what I saw under the tea house that day, a kind of sadness and contradictory struggle that seemed to be suffocating.
For some reason, the cold and hard heart was instantly loosened, and there was this later solo interrogation.
Mu Ran was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood, it turned out to be rescued, and it was really helpless luck, she shook her head and sat down at the table, "I don't know." ”
Without knowing a word, he had already answered all the questions that had not been asked, Feng Linglang's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at her with scrutiny, but he didn't ask more, but changed the question, "Why are you pretending to be stupid?"
"Private matters. Mu Ran raised her eyes and looked at the window, a little careless, but the hand under her sleeve was clenched a little, and the chaotic emotions in her heart made it impossible for her to be in the same room with him, which would make her full of loopholes and lose all control, "If the prince asks, can you let him go?"
She spoke, but she never got a response, but she could still feel the scrutinizing gaze that had been looking at her, like hot lava.
Her breathing became tighter and tighter, and she tried to adjust it hard, turning her head as calmly as possible, but her heart shrank.
Feng Linglang's gaze at this moment did not have the previous coldness and aggression, but a little confusion and that familiar gaze.
The heart lost its frequency in an instant, something flashed in his mind, and before he could catch it, the door was suddenly pushed open.
The creaking sound interrupted the strange atmosphere of the room, and it brought both of them back to their senses.
When she saw another familiar face coming in, there were probably two shocks, and this time she was not so surprised and out of shape, but looking at the glimmer of light that flashed in the other party's eyes, it still made her smile bitterly, how shrewd Feng Jinxuan was, it is estimated that he would not have to worry about him seeing through it in the future, and her mouth was a little bitter, so that she didn't know what expression to make for a while.
Feng Linglang was summoned into the palace in advance before the early dynasty time, and today's morning dynasty is also particularly lively, and the things around it are nothing more than Feng Linglang's marriage.
There are people who participate in Jingkanghou's goddaughters who are not strict, and Jin Yuan is so tired that he is ridiculed by people from other countries, has improper conduct, misbehaves, and so on.
To put it simply, it is nothing more than an allusion that Ling Yanran is not worthy of Feng Linglang and is not suitable to be the princess of King Ruyang, and her purpose is mostly for the daughter of the family.
As long as Ling Yanran loses her qualifications, then their daughters will have more opportunities.
Of course, there are also those who see that the emperor really likes the marriage with Jing Kanghou, and deliberately helps Ling Yanran defend himself, secretly patting the emperor's ass.
However, Feng Linglang and Jing Kanghou, who were the parties concerned, did not say a word.
Emperor Yuan listened impatiently, "At this time, it has not been ascertained, there is no need to have more heretics, and after finding the daughter of the Ling family, I plan to hold a welcome banquet tomorrow night to welcome all the envoys and guests who came to congratulate, and the civil and military officials can also bring their families to be present, and this matter will be handled by Dr. Li." ”
"Minister, Commander. Doctor Rong Jun hurriedly walked out of the queue and bowed down to receive the order, and the rest of the people also came back to their senses, and their eyes that were turning faster immediately lit up.
suddenly held a welcome banquet before the wedding, and Xu Wenwu officials brought their families to the stage, which seemed to be just a matter of etiquette, but if you think about it deeply, maybe the emperor intends to help Ling Yanran clean her reputation and also intentionally make the last retreat, that is, to re-elect a princess of Ruyang.
I heard that King Lang was called into the palace early in the morning, presumably because of this incident, doesn't this mean that the marriageable women in the family have a chance.
How can this not surprise those who are interested, King Lang is a fragrant glutton, even if it is impossible for him to take over the throne, but in the palm of the three armies, as long as there is no accident in the future, it will be above ten thousand people under one person, and the emperor will be helpless against him.
Of course, there are also some generals who know Feng Linglang more deeply in their hearts, and they will be unhappy for King Lang, who originally thought that King Lang married a gentle and virtuous genius alchemist, a match made in heaven, and the future husband and wife will be invincible in the world with their swords, but now they know that they are marrying a vicious troublesome spirit, and from the emperor's attitude, King Lang's marriage is just a move in his interests.
Lu Kaiyan, the head of Wenchen, has always been silent, with his head down, but his eyes are extremely gloomy, especially when he looks at Ling Hao.
How could Ling Hao not notice his gaze, but he didn't dare to look at him at all, and he just lowered his head from beginning to end.
After this is announced, he will announce the next court.
"I don't agree, why. In the room, a crisp female voice came out categorically, and there was a bit of gnashing of teeth in her tone.
"Hey, I said chick, don't forget who saved you, and don't forget who caused this trouble. Feng Jinxuan crossed Erlang's legs without any image, knocked on the table casually with a fan, and looked at the woman opposite with upside down willow eyebrows with a smile.
Mu Ran laughed angrily, "Heh, the folk girl is just a stupid person, how do you know the Tao of the Tao, and now she is still unarmed and has no power to fight back, won't the prince feel too embarrassed." ”
"Oh, little girl, you are pretending to be crazy and stupid, it is nothing more than three purposes, one is to protect oneself, the second is to wait for an opportunity to seize the power of the Hou Mansion, and the third is to get out of the Hou Mansion. If you agree to this plan now, although it is a bit risky, it will undoubtedly benefit you more, at least you will have my eldest nephew behind you as a backer in the future, no one in the Hou Mansion will dare to do anything to you, and you don't need to be wronged and pretend to be crazy and stupid. ”
"It's a pity, I don't feel wronged, stupid has the benefit of being stupid, it's rare to be confused, anyway, I won't agree, if the prince doesn't want to send it away, then please let it go." ”
The other party's oil and salt did not enter, which made Feng Jinxuan more interested, raised his eyebrows and took a sip of tea thoughtfully, and suddenly said, "I said, you are so resolute in refusing, isn't it shy? Let you follow King Lang for the time being, and not let you go to the bed, what is there to be afraid of, besides, I don't know how many women outside dream of climbing into my eldest nephew's bed, and you are still picky when you give you a chance to get the moon near the water." ”
Mu Ran almost vomited a mouthful of blood, he couldn't help but get angry from his heart, and he was used to getting along with Feng Jinxuan in his previous life, and he was a little speechless for a while, "Do you think that everyone is rare Your eldest nephew, turnip greens have their own love, and no one stipulates that everyone should like which highly respected person." ”
"Haha, did you hear it, eldest nephew, you were disliked, hey, don't be sad, it's because this woman is too illiterate, it's not that you're not good enough. Feng Jinxuan looked at the man who came not far away, although his tone was serious, but the smile on his face looked like a coke.
Mu Ran's body stiffened, and his complexion changed.
Feng Linglang still didn't reveal half of his emotions on his face, he walked indifferently, ignoring the gloating Feng Jinxuan, lowered his head to look at the woman who lowered his head and lowered his eyes, his eyes paused on her lips that were pursed into a line, and said, "If Miss Ling really doesn't want to, this king will not force it, and he will arrange someone to send Miss back to the Prime Minister's Mansion later." ”
Mu Ran looked up in surprise.
(Whoa, looking at the little girl being so diligent, begging for sea votes~)
