Chapter 4: Winning the world and losing her three
This year, Lan'er is seventeen years old, Tianxuan is twenty years old, he has reached the age of the crown, the whole person is no longer as high-spirited as when he was a teenager, he is getting deeper and deeper, calm, unconsciously, the distance between them is getting farther and farther, Lan'er opened the rosewood box, took out a Mulan hosta, and touched it carefully, the hosta brought up a lot of memories.
"Sister, sister, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince called you there" A little girl dressed in light green hurriedly ran over, "Okay, I know" Lan'er cleaned up, carefully put the hosta into the box, sorted out the expression on her face, and hurriedly hurried.
"Your Highness" Lan'er bowed slightly, "Lan'er, you're here, it's the palace's crown ceremony in two days, what do you think?" Tianxuan's expression eased slightly, not as cold as before, and rubbed his temples. In the past few days, my head has become more and more painful.
In the past few years, the power of the court has been up and down, and as he grows up, with the identity of the crown prince, he has recently cracked down on many forces and subdued some officials. "Your Highness already has an idea in her heart, so why bother asking Lan'er?" Lan'er stepped forward and carefully rubbed his temples for him.
Sure enough, Tianxuan held Lan'er's hand and sighed, "This palace really has a good sister, Bing Xue is smart." In recent years, Xiangguo's power has grown, and he has a seventeen-year-old daughter named Nangong Yuxuan, who is the same age as you, which is a good choice. “
Lan'er's eyes were slightly lowered, the strength in her hand was not noticed for a while, and she was a little heavier, and said softly, "Miss Nangong and His Royal Highness are very compatible." “
Tianxuan smiled, "Lan'er is not too small, it's time to find a good family!" Lan'er hurriedly knelt down and said, "Lan'er just wants to stay by His Highness's side, His Highness doesn't want to drive Lan'er away!" “
"Yes, yes, don't worry, all over the world, this palace will find a Langjun you like." Tianxuan smiled, and remembered this in his heart.
"If Your Highness has no other orders, Lan'er will retire." Lan'er hurriedly said, "Okay, you can step down." Tianxuan was in the position of the day, and she was not in the mood to pay attention to her, Lan'er withdrew, watching him bury his head in the bookcase again, and rubbing his temples from time to time, Lan'er carefully instructed the girl who guarded the door, "Your Highness has a headache, you go and light the soothing incense, rub his head for him, it's hot today, and send the tea break to the cold later"
"Yes, it's just that sister, why don't you go?" The little girl was puzzled, and Lan'er smiled faintly, "Me?······ I'm not feeling well today, I'm tired of you."
It wasn't until she returned to her room that Lan'er felt relieved, he had become busier and busier in recent years, and she had become more and more dedicated, the joy of a few years ago could never go back, and she still remembered that night, that night should have been the happiest time in her life, but she couldn't go back.
"Sister, I bought the object that my sister asked me to buy." The little eunuch hurriedly ran in, handed over a tightly wrapped object in oiled paper cloth, "Youlao" Lan'er took it with a smile, and personally sent the little eunuch out of the door, only then closed the door and carefully dismantled it.
There was a string of red and shiny sugar gourds lying inside, Lan'er picked it up and took a careful bite and tasted it slowly for a while
"It's so sour!"
After a few days, today is the day of Tianxuan and the crown, and the people in the entire palace are boiling, especially in the palace, early in the morning, they will clean up and put up lights. Lan'er held a tube of jet-black green silk in her left hand, held an ivory comb in her right hand, and slowly combed it, Lan'er looked at the person in the mirror, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, strong and handsome, the hard lines were extremely smooth, and the shoulders were so broad, wearing a white middle coat, because she was tired, she was pretending to sleep. He is not as old as her when he was a child, and now Tianxuan is more than half a head taller than her.
Lan'er looked at him carefully, and only when he was asleep did she dare to look at him like that. "What's wrong?" Suddenly, Tianxuan woke up, too, he didn't fall asleep at all, and woke up when he noticed that her movements had stopped.
"It's nothing" Lan'er combed his hair neatly, "Your Highness, Lan'er is a little unwell today, and I want to go back to my room to rest." "
"Okay, you can go back." Tianxuan didn't think much about it, and waved his hand to let Lan'er retreat.
She didn't want to smile at others on this day when she was very sad, she couldn't do it, Lan'er's room was closed, but even so, she could still feel the lively atmosphere outside, the gongs and drums were noisy, and the firecrackers were ringing out.
The congratulatory voices were heard even when the door was closed. Lan'er knew that she shouldn't be delusional, but why, her heart still hurt so much? Lan'er didn't know whether to cry or laugh, took out the rosewood box, and carefully stroked the Mulan hosta, Mulan is still Mulan, carved on it, never dying, at that time, he said, "Lan'er, you are so beautiful" Lan'er opened a sugar gourd wrapped in oiled paper cloth, put it in her mouth, and chewed hard.
Suddenly, Lan'er spit out with a "poof", "Your Highness, you lied to me, the sugar gourd is sour, and it is not sweet at all!" "
It's been a long time since that day, Lan'er is still cooking tea in her yard, making tea, her temperament is becoming more and more calm, even if she treats Tianxuan, her face does not change, on this day, Lan'er is making tea, "Sister, sister, Daxi, the wedding date between His Royal Highness the Prince and Miss Nangong is set for the third day of the next month" A little girl came to report the good news.
With a "bang", the teapot fell to the ground and shattered, and the boiling water made Lan'er's hands red, "····· Is it? “
"Sister, I'll go to the house to get the ointment" The little girl ran to the house after speaking, Lan'er stood there, only to feel that the injury on her hand was far less serious than the injury in her heart, the little girl carefully medicated Lan'er, but Lan'er didn't feel it at all.
On the third day of the next month, Lan'er looked at Tianxuan who was dressed in a wedding dress, he was really radiant tonight, just like a god descending from heaven, Lan'er praised and said, "Your Highness is really handsome today, Miss Nangong will definitely like it." ”
"Really?" Tianxuan suddenly laughed, smiling so beautifully, she shook her eyes, she thought that there was no god in the sky, it was just a delusion of mortals.
Today, His Royal Highness will marry Miss Nangong as his wife, and he will have more concubines and countless women in the future, she still needs to do her duty with peace of mind, I wish he is good, she will be good, as long as His Highness is happy, it is enough.
"Your Highness, you should go, don't miss the auspicious time." She personally sent Tianxuan away, watched him ride a tall horse to greet his wife, and sent him to the honor guard far away.
Lan'er returned to her room, took out a piece of paper, and wrote and drew on it seriously, "Your Highness, Lan'er is very happy, today you finally married someone else, although Lan'er's heart is very reluctant, but I know that you have set foot on your life, I should not obstruct it, I can only be happy for you, I wish you well, I am good, I think it is the most beautiful thing to meet you in this life, but, now, I should also be sober, thank you, let me know you, let my life have color!" “
Lan'er took out the delicate rosewood box, but there was already a thin layer of dust on the box, Lan'er brushed off the dust, put the letter in, and then sealed the box, this box, she will never open again.
