Chapter VI: Summons

After getting out of the carriage, Lan Zijin and Nangong Yu both walked towards the courtyard.

"Zijin, you're tired today, go back and rest early." Hearing Nangong Yu say this, Lan Zijin took off Nangong Yu's clothes on his body, handed them to him, and replied, "Well, you should rest early." ”

Back in the other garden, after bathing and changing, Lan Zijin lay on the bed but couldn't sleep. She was thinking about Nangong Yu, and she also recalled the glass of wine that she had never exchanged on the wedding night. She didn't know how Nangong Yu felt about her, and she didn't know how she felt about Nangong Yu. She thinks that this may be love.

Thinking so, Lan Zijin put on his coat, walked around the courtyard, and unconsciously came to Nangong Yu's door.

The lights in Nangong Yu's house were still on, and Lan Zijin reached out and knocked on the door: "Ah Yu, can I come in?" Without waiting for an answer from inside, the door was opened by Nangong Yu.

"I have something to tell you." Before Nangong Yu could speak, Lan Zijin said one after another.

"Come in."

Nangong Yu beckoned Lan Zijin to sit down at the square table, and Lan Zijin quietly looked at the teacup in his hand.

"Zijin, didn't you say you had something to say?" Seeing that Lan Zijin didn't speak for a long time, Nangong Yu asked.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, we have been married for more than three months, and we haven't spoken properly for three months. I've always been a person who can't hide what is on my mind, so I want to tell you everything in my heart. Lan Zijin said and looked at Nangong Yu, Nangong Yu was silent, looked at her and nodded to signal her to continue.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, I think I like you a little."

Nangong Yu heard Lan Zijin's words, and his heart trembled slightly. After thinking about it, with his identity as the prince of Nangong Kingdom, it is not difficult to win Lan Zijin's heart, is she a hug? Although he also had a good impression of her, he couldn't get good results after all, so he remained silent.

I only heard Lan Zijin say again: "I admit that I refused to kiss at first, but when I really met you and got to know you, I realized that I might like you." You don't know how happy and looking forward to it when you say you took me out to play. Gradually, I realized that I was not averse to this political marriage. Since fate arranged for us to be husband and wife, I am willing to compromise. ”

Faced with Nangong Yu's silence, Lan Zijin was a little disappointed, but she didn't want to give up. She put down the teacup and stood up and continued: "Perhaps, you don't like me, in your heart, our union is just a symbol of the marriage between the two countries. However, I can try to be a good wife, a qualified princess. ”

Nangong Yu looked at her serious appearance, stepped forward, and hugged Lan Zijin in his arms, he didn't expect her body to be so soft, and the feeling of hugging her was so beautiful, so beautiful that he was reluctant to let go.

"Zijin, you think too much, and I like you very much. I like it very much, and I start from the moment I lift the hijab. Nangong Yu stroked Lan Zijin's hair, and in the face of her frank confession, he didn't want to hold back his feelings anymore.

Lan Zijin pressed his side face against his chest, and a small spark ignited in his heart.

"So, do we need another drink?" Lan Zijin asked softly.

"Well, I'll make up for a formal drink."

After hearing Nangong Yu's words, Lan Zijin blushed, and the two hugged for a while before letting go.

"Then, Ah Yu, you should rest early and pay attention to your body. I'll go back first. Lan Zijin was so shy that he didn't dare to look up at him, Nangong Yu touched her head dotingly and replied, "Well, okay." ”

Back in the other garden, Lan Zijin was lying on the bed, a little excited. Gradually, she fell asleep and had a beautiful dream.

There is Nangong Yu in the dream, and there are their warm days in the future.

Since Lan Zijin left, Nangong Yu stood by the window, looking at the moon. I think of her smiles, words and deeds. The smile on his face faded, and he knew that he still had to hurt this woman anyway.

This woman he may have fallen in love with.

The next day, someone came to the palace, saying that he wanted to invite the crown princess into the palace.

Lan Zijin, who had just had breakfast, was a little puzzled and asked, "Why did the queen mother suddenly summon me to the palace?" ”

"This, the slave maid doesn't know, and I ask the princess to enter the palace with the slave maid immediately." The little messenger who came to the palace maid said timidly.

"Okay then."

Lan Zijin dressed up a little and entered the palace with the carriage. On the carriage, Lan Zijin recalled what he said to Nangong Yu last night, as well as his promise, and couldn't help but blush slightly.

After entering the palace, the coachman guided her to the queen's quarters.

Lan Zijin was taken to the inner hall by the palace maid in front of the door, and saw the queen sitting in the center of the main hall of the dormitory, and standing next to her was her husband Jun Nangong Yu.

"The sons and daughters visited the queen mother, but I don't know why the queen mother summoned the sons to come?" Lan Zijin knelt in front of the main hall and bowed his head to ask the majestic woman sitting in front of him.

"Yu'er will marry the princess of the Northern Underworld in the near future, Bei Ming Yiyi will be the side concubine, I call you to come, I hope you can help Yu'er handle it well, don't neglect the princess of the Northern Underworld." The queen's tone revealed an undoubted coldness, and without waiting for Lan Zijin to reply, the queen said: "This palace hopes that you can live in harmony with the princess of the Northern Underworld, and don't give birth to right and wrong." Although you are the main concubine and she is the side concubine, she is also your rightful master in the Northern Underworld, so you must pay attention to your words and deeds. The queen deliberately put the word attention very seriously, and her expression was not angry.

Lan Zijin was at a loss for a moment, raised his head and looked at Nangong Yu, his eyes seemed to be full of expectation, waiting for him to speak.

But Nangong Yu didn't look at her, avoided her gaze, there was no trace of guilt on his face, and his expression did not change at all, he was still the dignified prince of Nangong.

Lan Zijin knew in his heart that Nangong Yu should have known that he was going to marry Bei Ming Yiyi as a side concubine, so why did he say that to her last night?

She wanted an answer, but Nangong Yu and Queen Nangong's posture did tell her that this matter was unquestionable, there was no room for refutation, and she had no right to refuse, and the only thing she could do as a concubine was support.

Facing Lan Zijin's silence, the queen was a little dissatisfied, and said with a slightly angry face: "Crown princess, do you remember it?" ”

Lan Zijin lowered her head again, and although she had been kneeling on the ground, she didn't feel the pain for a long time. Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, Nangong Yuyi opened her mouth and said, "Crown Princess, don't hurry back to your mother's words." ”

Nangong Yu's voice came, but Lan Zijin didn't feel a trace of warmth and relief. She closed her eyes vigorously, put away her thoughts, withdrew the tears swirling in her eyes, raised her head, showed a slightly bitter and elegant smile, and calmly replied: "Yes!" Erchen will never live up to the expectations of the queen and the prince, and must live in harmony with the princess and be humble in everything, but Erchen does not know how to organize a wedding banquet, so he is afraid of neglecting the princess, and asks the queen mother for forgiveness. ”

"Okay, I got it. You can calm down first. After listening to the queen, Lan Zijin stood up, still bowing his head and being silent.

The queen is very disgusted with Lan Zijin's appearance, a beautiful girl from the Northern Underworld, is it possible to really regard herself as the crown princess? So he gave her a blank look, and then said, "Okay, you go down." ”

Lan Zijin replied "yes", dragged his sore legs, and turned around and left the dormitory.

Mu Cheng asked her to get into the carriage, but she ignored it, and just walked silently towards the palace gate by herself. Her mind was blank, and she didn't know how long she had been gone. She laughed, laughed at herself, and even fantasized about being a couple with Nangong Yu for the rest of her life.

It's just that I knew that I was going to marry the princess of the Northern Underworld, why did I have to marry her thousands of miles before this and let her be the prince's concubine? Lan Zijin didn't understand. In the entire Nangong Kingdom, maybe she is the only one who doesn't understand.

The weather, unfortunately, was overcast and gloomy, as if the rain would pour down at any moment. But the rain didn't come after all, only gusts of wind blew.

This feeling made her too depressed. She hoped that God would make a rainstorm so that she would be more awake while getting wet. But life is not always as good as it should be. Just like although she is Nangong Yu's wife, Nangong Yu will also have a more noble side concubine. Although she was in a bad mood and hoped that the weather would match her mood and make it rain, God only blew her wind.

The rain won't come, and neither will the single-minded beloved.
