Volume 1 The Orphan Girl of the Imperial Capital Chapter 116 No need for it
His voice immediately made the people around him dumbfounded, who is Yue Jingxuan, the famous King of Ning'an, and most importantly, he is the imperial uncle of the third prince.
And the lord of Leping was originally going to marry the third prince as the princess, but as soon as she dissolved the marriage contract, King Ning'an suddenly proposed marriage, which couldn't help but give birth to many thoughts in people's hearts.
Lin Zi'an's face suddenly became embarrassed. His impression of Yue Jingxuan has always been good, this person looks like a gentle gentleman on the surface, but in fact, even the bones reveal a sense of indifference. He doesn't care about any feelings, not even himself, what he has is just unscrupulous to achieve the goal.
However, judging from his usual performance, this person is a thoughtful person, and he should never propose to him in such an inconsiderate situation. Moreover, what is the purpose of this person's sudden attention to Yun Lan?
Yue Jingxuan endured the scrutiny and pressure from Lin Zi'an, and the smile on his face was always as gentle as jade.
Mu Yunlan didn't realize Lin Zi'an's complicated thoughts, she only looked at Yue Jingxuan with shining eyes, the corners of her lips curled up a small arc, and her big eyes were slightly bent, just like a cat that stole fish to eat, people couldn't help but reach out and rub her head, watching her reveal her soft belly.
Just when the atmosphere in the hall was extremely weird, an announcement suddenly sounded at the door: "His Royal Highness the Third Prince has arrived." ”
His Royal Highness the Third Prince has come down!
Yue Jingxuan lowered his eyes slightly, and an indifferent cold light flashed in his eyes.
This is the first time Mu Yunlan has seen Yue Xiaohan since Concubine Jin's accident, and after more than ten days, he has lost a lot of weight, his face is pale, haggard, and there is a slight blue and black under his eyes. Because of his filial piety, he wore a moon-white dress and a white jade crown on his head, which made his whole person look weaker and weaker.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the Great Prince and His Royal Highness the Third Prince." Mu Yunlan saluted last, and after saluting, she retreated to Lin Zi'an's side. Now, she doesn't want to face Yue Xiaohan.
"Cloud ...... Lord Leping," Yue Xiaohan looked at Mu Yunlan quietly, her eyes were far and profound, as if she wanted to engrave her appearance in her heart, "I wear filial piety, it stands to reason that I shouldn't come to the door, but in the end, you and I have a fate, today you are in harmony, it is not appropriate not to come to give gifts, this is my gift, to celebrate your long life......"
Yue Xiaohan was holding a small box in his hand, which didn't look very big.
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, the green sleeves ......" Mu Yunlan looked at the green sleeves and motioned for her to take the gift.
But Yue Xiaohan withdrew his hand, waited until the green sleeves retreated aside, and then took it out again, facing Mu Yunlan's direction.
The eyes of the guests below lit up and they turned their eyes around, which is rare to see.
Lin Ye was angry on the side, one by one, they all took advantage of his sister-in-law's birthday to find him, didn't he?
Mu Yunlan hesitated for a moment, stepped forward, and wanted to take the box over, but saw Yue Xiaohan directly take out the contents of the box. It was a white hosta, the hairpin head was carved with white magnolia, and there was a hint of green floating under the flowers, which made the whole hairpin look particularly smart and fresh.
"How about I put it on for you?" Yue Xiaohan's voice was low, and if you listened carefully, you could tell the melancholy and gloom, and even some pleading.
Mu Yunlan stood still and looked into his eyes, those eyes were full of pain and affection, making people feel their hearts break at a glance. Many young ladies below have already sympathized with Yue Xiaohan, and they can't wait to go up to replace Mu Yunlan's place and comfort the injured prince.
But Mu Yunlan shook her head firmly: "The ceremony is over, you see, the hairpin crown on my head is complete, and I don't need the white hosta anymore." ”
After all, there is no fate, why bother with more involvement, she knows that Yue Xiaohan has no bad intentions for her, but after all, the two sides have different positions, so it is better to be more estranged.
Yue Xiaohan smiled bitterly, and a trace of self-deprecation flashed in his eyes: "That's fine, I made it with my own hands, just hoping that one day, I could insert it into your hair, but now it's useless, so there's no need to keep it......"
He let go of his hand suddenly, and the hosta fell to the ground with a snap, breaking into several knots in an instant.
Mu Yunlan had no other expression on her face, quietly withdrew her eyes, and returned to Lin Zi'an's side after saluting.
Yue Xiaohan turned around, didn't say hello to anyone, and walked straight to the door.
There was silence in the hall, and everyone looked at his gloomy figure, as if they could feel his heartache and despair, especially some sentimental young ladies, who were particularly dissatisfied with Mu Yunlan in their hearts, it was built by the third prince himself, and it was broken like this, what a pity!
It wasn't until he got out of the hospital that Yue Xiaohan stopped, and recalled Mu Yunlan's words again: Even though I was bad in the past, I liked you the most......
If you miss it, you won't be able to go back?
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince." Mu Huaijin walked over slowly, his face was not shocked, but his heart was full of emotions, the person in front of him was the future emperor, he should not be trapped by the love of his children, "Your Highness, can you move to the pavilion?" ”
"No need, if there's anything, let's talk about it here."
Mu Huaijin smiled slightly, and turned his head to look at the koi under the pond not far away: "Look at these koi, you think you are swimming freely, but you don't know that what traps them is just a small pond, and what they are fighting for is nothing more than the alms of the feeders." ”
Yue Xiaohan stood with his hands in his hands, with a smile on his lips: "What do you mean by this?" ”
"Your Highness, the wind and clouds are about to rise, whether you ride the wind and waves to the nine heavens, or sink into the dust and fall, it depends on how you choose." Mu Huaijin's tone was sincere, and there was a charm in his voice that people couldn't help but believe.
"How about going straight to the sky? What about the earthly dust? Yue Xiaohan turned his head to look at him, his eyes were deep and difficult to distinguish.
"If His Royal Highness has the ambition of the wind and clouds, Huai Jin is willing to follow the work of dogs and horses, if not, Huai Jin will put wine for you when His Royal Highness dies."
"Presumptuous!" Yue Xiaohan's body was cold, and he rushed towards Mu Huaijin with an oppressive momentum, and the sharp edge made people dare not look at it directly.
"Your Highness, your words are contrary to your words, now, your position is in danger, if you can't ride the wind and waves, you can only be swallowed up and destroyed." Mu Huaijin bowed deeply, his face full of sincerity.
The battle for the throne, win or die!
"I don't think I've heard anything about today." Yue Xiaohan looked at the koi in the water, with a hint of sneer on his lips, the koi is just a koi after all, can he survive if he is put into the sea? Mu Huaijin, her ambitions are not small, but she doesn't know how much she can do?
Mu Huaijin stood up straight, looked at his back as he left, and showed a comfortable smile: The momentum of the third prince just now is already on par with his previous life, such a person will definitely not indulge in love, he just needs to wait.
As for Mu Yunlan, heh, when he stands in a high position, it is not easy to clean up a woman?
In the western courtyard, after the three princes left, Lin Zi'an announced the start of the banquet, neither paying attention to Yue Jingxuan, who proposed to him, nor letting people clean up the broken hostas on the ground.
The guests were satisfied with watching the play, and it was also very popular at this time, and the hall was particularly lively for a while.
After finishing the meal, many people looked at the scenery in the garden and were particularly itchy, so they proposed to go shopping, Mu Yunlan happily agreed, and took a group of young ladies to enjoy the scenery in the garden.
After turning around, everyone chose their favorite place to rest, and Mu Yunlan sat alone in the gazebo on the side. She is not good at dealing with such a scene, let her entertain guests, always pay attention to all aspects, it is better to let her lead the troops to fight.
"This stone is so special, it looks like auspicious clouds from a distance, I don't know where the county lord found it?"
The woman who spoke was dressed in a goose-yellow Luo skirt, with flowing clouds, a goose egg face, and a face like jade.
Mu Yunlan looked over and smiled, "My grandfather brought it from Jiangnan." ”
After Lin Zi'an came to the imperial capital, more than a dozen boats of things were delivered one after another, and at that time, the entire imperial capital was a sensation, and many people stayed by the dock all day to watch the excitement.
"No wonder with a beautiful atmosphere of Jiangnan water rhyme, the county lord is really a blessing."
Mu Yunlan smiled silently, and wondered a little in her heart, she and Ning Huanyan had a relationship at the banquet of the eldest princess of Huaiqing, but they had never communicated, and they didn't know what the purpose of her sudden coming over to talk was.
"The county lord is curious, why did I come?" Ning Huan smiled a little embarrassed, "Actually, it's because of King Ning An." ”
Mu Yunlan's eyes moved, and she raised her eyes to look at her: "I don't know what is going on?" ”
"Yesterday, the emperor announced that my father had entered the palace, and he wanted to give me to King Ning'an as a princess, but later King Ning'an refused......"
Mu Yunlan's pupils shrank suddenly, no wonder Uncle Huang would suddenly choose to propose to his grandfather today, it turned out that it was the emperor who wanted to meddle in his marriage.
"I don't know why Miss Ning suddenly told me this."
"It's just that I want a lover to become a family member eventually." Ning Huan smiled gently.
"Thank you for informing. It doesn't have anything to do with me, though. ”
"I'm just talking about it casually."
After Ning Huanyan finished speaking, he got up and said goodbye and left, as if he had come here specifically, really just to say these few words? And Uncle Huang, if the emperor resolutely intervenes in his marriage, then what should she do?
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but feel like I had blocked a stone in my heart, if that Yue Jingyun resolutely disagreed, or if she wanted to give Uncle Huang to someone else, she would ...... She eloped with people and went to Yunnan, anyway, that place is the territory of the emperor's uncle, and the emperor is far away, and no one can control them!
Just thinking about it, I suddenly felt that my wrist was grabbed, and then the whole person was pushed behind the rockery.
