Looking at Luo Qingluan, Xiao Yuqi smiled and said, "I wonder if Princess Chu likes these gifts?" โ
actually answered her, but first asked if the gift was suitable? Luo Qingluan said lightly: "The gift prepared by Prince Xiao is naturally good, how could I not like it?" However, no matter how much I like it, it depends on what Prince Xiao asks, if it is not complicated, for the sake of acquaintance, I will help even if I don't accept Prince Xiao's gift. โ
But she didn't say the second half of the sentence, helping because things are not complicated, if it is complicated and troublesome, even if the gift is good, she will not be tempted to wade into troubled waters.
Hearing the faint rejection in Luo Qingluan's words, Xiao Yuqi couldn't help but say, "Thank you Princess Chu." These three gifts were brought from Dongwan by the palace, just for the last time you treated the third emperor's brother, and my father didn't have time to thank you, so this time I was ordered to bring these gifts. โ
"This palace came to the capital of Xichu in advance this time, and I wanted to take a leisurely look at the scenery and take a walk to enjoy it, so I didn't tell Your Majesty Xichu, lest Your Majesty work hard and move the people, and this palace ...... Hehe, the main palace also has two less days to play. โ
Speaking of this, Xiao Yuqi changed his words: "It's just that this palace didn't expect that there was an accident." It's my third emperor brother......"
Putting down the cold jade box in his hand, Luo Qingluan said, "Could it be that something is wrong with the third prince of Xiao?" โ
With a wry smile, Xiao Yuqi said: "Ming people don't say secret words, Princess Chu already knows that my third emperor brother went to participate in the third princess's recruitment competition, but she didn't discuss it with the palace in advance, it's really nonsense." Now His Majesty Xichu also knows that the third brother of the palace has no way to retreat, and he also said that he really likes the third princess, since this is the case, it is also a mistake, and the palace can only let him continue. โ
didn't understand the meaning of Xiao Yuqi's words, Luo Qingluan asked, "In that case, what is Prince Xiao worried about?" โ
Finally talking about the most critical issue, Xiao Yuqi looked at Nalan Ye, and then said cautiously: "A year ago in Dongwan, Princess Chu still remembers that she once treated the third emperor's brother, right?" โ
"How's he doing?"
seemed to have noticed something, Luo Qingluan just asked, something flashed in his heart, and he said loudly: "Could it be the third prince and he ......?"
Nodding, Xiao Yuqi was very embarrassed: "Yes, the third emperor brother is in good health...... It's a bit of a hidden disease. If it was before, Bengong didn't bother to care about him, but he was just to blame, but now it's a ...... He has already gone to participate in the selection of relatives, if His Majesty Xichu knows about his situation, I am afraid that he will think that our Dongwan deliberately deceived and caused some misunderstanding, so I want to invite Princess Chu......"
Without waiting for Xiao Yuqi to finish speaking, Luo Qingluan immediately said: "So Prince Xiao wants to invite me into the palace to intercede with His Majesty, don't blame the third prince for hiding his physical condition, right?" โ
"Yes, and Princess Chu, this palace still wants to invite you ......"
After only half a sentence, Luo Qingluan thought about Xiao Yuqi's words again, and said with a slight smile: "Prince Xiao, you are too polite, don't say anything about please or not, this is just a trivial matter, Your Majesty will not blame it." After all, it's only been a day since the three princes were recruited, what if the three princes were defeated? Prince Xiao, you said yes, right? If the third prince can't become a concubine, then it will have no effect on the princess, and it will naturally be fine. โ
How can this work? Xiao Yuqi hurriedly explained: "No, Princess Chu, but the meaning of this palace is ......"
"Prince Xiao doesn't need to be polite, I understand, you can rest assured, I will enter the palace and tell Your Majesty about this matter in a while, Your Majesty will definitely not blame the Third Prince." Luo Qingluan seemed to be smiling, looking at him lightly, the meaning was self-evident.
Luo Qingluan had already blocked all the words, not letting Xiao Yuqi say that the latter didn't understand anything, making it clear that Luo Qingluan didn't want to interfere in the treatment of Xiao Tianci. However, one of the main reasons for coming all the way to Xichu this time was to treat Xiao Tianci's hidden disease, if he couldn't complete the task......
But Xiao Yuqi is not a dead fight after all, since Luo Qingluan is unwilling, then he can only not mention it for the time being. Arching his hand, he nodded and said, "Okay, then thank you Princess Chu." โ
Looking forward to coming, but the result was disappointed and returned, Xiao Yuqi didn't sit down twice and left, before leaving, Luo Qingluan asked him to bring all the gifts back, and said that it was a little help to raise his hands, and he didn't need to accept such a big gift, and he deserved it.
After Xiao Yuqi and his party left, Nalan Ye looked at her with a smile: "Qingluan, are you distressed?" It's easy to say anything else, the thousand-year-old ginseng and cold jade silkworm are so rare, and you have to return them when you get it, are you really willing to give it back? โ
She knows herself best as a little woman, she can do without money, but she is most interested in medical things. Such two rare treasures have obviously been sent to the door, and she still refuses to accept them, and I don't know if she will be distressed and unable to sleep tonight.
A touch of cunning flashed in his eyes, and Luo Qingluan stirred Nalan's black hair like night ink and said, "You said I was reluctant? โ
"How, what do you want to ......"
"Now that something has passed my eyes, how can it still slip away? I'm just upset that they cut it first and then play it, as if I would definitely agree to give a gift. And you don't know, what Xiao Yuqi asked for is not easy to do, although it is only for Xiao Tianci to treat hidden diseases, but I have already treated him once, and I have also warned him to be careful, if he commits it again, how can it be so simple to recover! โ
Nalan Ye generally knew about Luo Qingluan's past in Dongwan, but he was not interested in treating Xiao Tianci specifically. Now listening to Luo Qingluan's words, he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, and his fingertips gently swept from her fair cheeks, light as a feather caressing: "Tell me?" โ
It's funny to think about it, Luo Qingluan said a few words in Nalan Ye's ear, and the latter frowned: "Treat him for this kind of disease?" Qingluan, you are the woman of this king, you will also touch other men? Well~~? โ
With this deep voice and suppressed anger, Luo Qingluan instantly heard that this man was jealous.
couldn't help but laugh, Luo Qingluan's eyebrows curled: "Still not happy?" Isn't it just curing, what are you making a fuss about? And how could I touch him, you can't help but think too much......"
"Whether you touch it or he touches it, in short, as long as you look at what you shouldn't see, this king ......"
"What do you want?" With a glaring of eyes, Luo Qingluan stared at him.
This man is jealous and flies! There is nothing to do, why is the temper getting bigger and bigger?
Seeing that Luo Qingluan's face changed, Nalan Ye's eyes darkened, and she said in her ear: "What's the matter, this king will castrate him, okay?" He still has a lot of things to do, and he will bother you next time. โ
"I thought you were mad at me."
"How dare you?"
Nalan Ye laughed, holding her spring-like jade hand, with a doting look: "How dare you be angry with your husband and mother?" The lady is smart and clever, the first in the world, it's too late to spoil you for your husband, how can you be angry. Qingluan, since you feel troublesome, don't think about it so much. โ
Luo Qingluan snorted, but his mind was still on what happened just now.
For Xiao Yuqi to come to Xichu this time and bring such a valuable gift, she really had more thoughts. Now the relationship between Xichu and Dongwan is only afraid that it is not like before, although she knows that whether it is Nangong Qing or Nalan Ye, they have no thoughts about Dongwan, according to her understanding of Xiao Yuqi, this Prince Xiao is not a person who likes to use force.
But Emperor Dongwan ...... But I can't tell!
After resting for a while, someone came to report, and someone from the palace came to invite the king of Chu and the princess of Chu to observe the recruitment of relatives on the second day. Although Luo Qingluan was not too interested in Nangong Wan'er's marriage, after all, he agreed to Nangong Qing, and it was difficult for him to continue.
And she was also thinking about whether to tell Nangong Qing about the recurrence of Xiao Tianci's hidden disease, lest he really want to move, and felt that Xiao Tianci's conditions were suitable, and it would not be good to really marry Nangong Wan'er to him.
"Let's go then." Luo Qingluan looked at Nalan Ye: "By the way, tell Your Majesty about what happened just now." โ
Who knows, just before he had time to get into the carriage, a fast horse galloped in. A person on horseback turned over and jumped down, but it was Xu Wei, who ran over and knelt neatly in front of Nalan Ye, and said loudly: "Lord Wang, the royal treasures transported from Beijun have arrived, and Lord Guan specially ordered the villain to ask the prince to go and count them." โ
North County? A royal treasure?
Luo Qingluan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "It's actually here, so fast?" โ
Seeing her look of surprise, Nalan Ye couldn't guess her thoughts: "I see that you are not interested in recruiting relatives today, Qingluan, do you want to go and see these royal treasures together?" โ
It was originally a last resort to go to see Zhaoqin, but now that something more interesting has come, Luo Qingluan naturally lost his mind and said with a smile: "Naturally, I want to go and see, have you forgotten what Your Majesty said at the beginning?" I'd like to see what the good stuff is! โ
Remembering what Nangong Qing said before, allowing her to choose three of these treasures, Luo Qingluan became more and more interested. At that moment, the two got into the carriage and diverted to the Sifang Pavilion.
The treasures of the Beiyue royal family transported from Beijun were escorted by the county guard, and the Dark Night Hall sent Xu Wei and other 50 people to respond, and they were finally escorted to the capital after a long journey. At present, it is temporarily stored in the Sifang Hall of Honglu Temple, and will be sent to the imperial treasury immediately after all the handover and inventory.
Following Nalan Ye, Luo Qingluan went all the way to the Sifang Pavilion unimpeded, and at a glance he felt that today's hall was heavily guarded, with three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry. Even Xu Wei led the way in front, and the guards on duty had to check the waist card before letting them go, which shows that it was strict.
"Don't blame the prince and princess, these treasures are too valuable, and I don't dare to make a difference, otherwise the head of the lower officials will not be guaranteed." As soon as he saw Xu Wei coming with Nalan Ye and Luo Qingluan, Zuo He Changlong, who had been waiting for the second time, immediately smiled.
didn't care about He Changlong's overtures, Nalan Ye stepped forward and said lightly: "Lead the way." โ
"Yes, lord."
He Changlong immediately stepped forward, took Nalan Ye and Luo Qingluan all the way through the heavy guards, and finally arrived in front of the warehouse of the Sifang Pavilion, signaling the guards guarding the door to open the heavy iron door. As the light was projected in, Luo Qingluan saw at a glance that the huge warehouse was full of various items, but the most conspicuous thing was the two rows of iron boxes in the middle, dozens of them!
