Chapter 57: The Beginning of the Palace Banquet

Suddenly, Lan Ling'er's heart ached, how careful he should be, "You have calculated me thoroughly, right?" "Yes, how well he must know her to know her mind well, if it was in the past, before she realized it, she must have really been far away.

Putting his head on Lan Ling'er's shoulder, Mu Xinghan muttered: "Your mind is the most difficult to guess, even if I count all the people in the world, I can't calculate you." ”

Hearing this, Lan Ling'er chuckled, the stars were shining outside, the night was still and lonely, they were safe and warm. It's summer in the blink of an eye, and the time flies, leaving sighs and taking away endless pain or laughter. If she could, Lan Ling'er would think more about it like now, and she didn't have to bother or hate.

"Tell me about the old man again! There is also the reason why the royal family does not let go of the Blue Mansion. ”

Mu Xinghan's body was slightly stunned, and said, "They are already dead people, so why bother to say more." As for the reason, you will slowly understand it later, and now it is just a matter of understanding the current situation. ”

Lan Ling'er frowned slightly and asked, "Is the pattern of the world really changed because of him?" What is all this about? "If it is true that a mortal can change fate, is it still called fate? Lan Ling'er couldn't help but think in her heart.

"Huh!" Mu Xing smiled coldly, rubbed Lan Ling'er's head, and said, "If you think about it again, you won't be able to fit it here." Tomorrow is another palace banquet, you have to be careful of Lan Xuewu and Yang Yu. There was a hint of concern in his tone.

When Lan Ling'er heard this, there was a hint of coldness in her eyes, "Got it." "It's time to settle some accounts. I also put aside the doubts in my heart for the time being, and some things may not be impossible if you don't need a reason.

This palace banquet was in the evening, and Lan Ling'er entered the palace with twilight. Lan Yuan, Lan Xuan, and Lan Ling'er sat in the same carriage, and the others sat in the other carriage. Before leaving, although Lan Xuewu was unwilling, she silently received the strange gaze before leaving.

Lan Ling'er saw it in her eyes, but her face was silent, and she exchanged a look with Lan Xuan, and both of them understood it.

Lan Yuan watched the interaction between the two brothers and sisters, a look of relief flashed in his eyes, and he secretly sighed that Ling'er had finally grown up. Maybe he should also let go and let her go through the wind and rain by herself, originally wanted to give her a piece of blue sky, but helplessly, the sky was too wide for him to control.

It is the brightly lit palace again, and the brilliant lights render the sky above the palace, as if the clouds have not yet dispersed during the day. What catches the eye is the wine and food, the song and the swallow dance, such a luxurious palace banquet, there are often in Amaterasu. And Lan Ling'er always can't avoid it, and there is no need to avoid it.

Luo Yan was a businessman who could get the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, the sons and ladies of various families, and the emperor's personal hospitality, and it seemed that the royal family had given him enough face. It's just that Lan Ling'er looked at Luo Yan, who had a pale face, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly, he didn't belong to such prosperity. The comfort among the red flowers and green trees is the place where such a son goes, and places like Suzhou, such as Shuijiangnan, everyone will like it.

Luo Xiyun didn't have the slightest expression on her face, the crescent white dress added a bit of fairy aura to her, seeing Lan Ling'er looking at her, Luo Xiyun couldn't help but smile excitedly at her. Lan Ling'er chuckled and nodded as a courtesy.

The appearance of important people is always at the end, just like Emperor Amaterasu, who is slowly appearing with Concubine Rou and Concubine Yun at this time, and the three princes and two princesses are close behind, Dongfang Yi, who has not been seen for a long time, seems to have regained his original gentle image after a period of recuperation.

With the earth-shattering 'Long live my emperor' as if it could satisfy the vanity of this kind of person, the old emperor glanced at the person under his feet in a comfortable mood, and when his eyes touched Lan Ling'er, it was deep for a moment, but it was also instantly replaced by love.

"Let's all be flat." A laughing voice rang out. All the people stood up respectfully and sat down.

Singing and dancing, silk and bamboo bursts are indispensable programs for palace banquets, everyone has a smile on their faces, no one knows whether it is true or false, and no one cares. The bits and pieces of life, whether they are sad or laughing, can only be borne by themselves.

The corners of Lan Ling'er's mouth hooked slightly, looking at the prosperous stage, she stayed out of the matter and ignored it indifferently. It's just that someone won't let her ignore it so easily.

"Prime Minister Lan, you gave birth to a pair of good daughters, and now you have such an excellent son, you are really envious of others." The old emperor half-jokingly.

Lan Yuan's glass of wine was slightly stunned, and he said respectfully: "The emperor praised it falsely, but it is just some shallow things in his daughter's family, how can he be on the table!" As for Xuan'er, it is true that there is no son in the family, so there is just a queen. Lan Xuan's helpless voice came into Lan Ling'er's ears, which immediately made her cry and laugh.

The old emperor raised his eyebrows, "Oh... Prime Minister Lan can marry a few more concubines, so that it is a blessing to have a group of descendants. ”

Hearing this, Lan Ling'er finally couldn't help but let the tea in her mouth squirt out, peeked at Lan Yuan, and sure enough, she saw that his face was stiff, and then looked at the emperor, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, is this person old and confused? I even took care of other people's family affairs. It's just that there are more children and grandchildren, and when the time comes, it won't be as good as the royal family!

"Back to the emperor, Weichen Xie Huang cares, but I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the emperor. I've gotten used to it over the years, and I don't like to be lively. Lan Yuan said gloomily. But it caused a sigh in Lan Ling'er's heart, over the years, a person has also gotten used to it, what a distressing sentence.

Everyone saw Yang Yu's persistence, how could anyone have seen Lan Yuan's insistence on Murong Bing, Lan Ling'er couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, and lowered her head and drank all the tea in the cup.

Seeing this, the emperor did not dwell on this, but looked at Lan Ling'er and said with a smile: "Miss Lan is probably also inherited the infatuation of Prime Minister Lan!" The phrase "one person for a lifetime" on the "Flower Appreciation Conference" is still fresh in my memory. ”

Lan Ling'er hurriedly got up and said respectfully: "The courtiers are humble, and the emperor is worried. ”

"If such a radiant woman is still humble, then what kind of person is noble?" The Emperor couldn't help but ask. There was a glittering light in his eyes, and the eyes of the whole audience were on Lan Ling'er. But when he saw her suddenly, the corners of his mouth rose, and he said with a smile: "Back to the emperor, the crown prince Dongfang Yu is noble and noble, the second prince is gentle and elegant, the third prince is beautiful and intelligent, Princess Qin is gentle and virtuous, and Princess Jiaoyang is golden and lovely, any of them are more noble than Ling'er." Please also ask the emperor not to torture the courtiers. ”

"Hahaha!" Suddenly, the emperor's laughter resounded in the hall, "You! Glancing at Lan Ling'er as if helpless, the emperor put his gaze back on Lan Yuan and said with a smile: "Prime Minister Lan gave birth to a very smart and clever girl. ”

"Wechen is terrified." Lan Yuan said respectfully, glancing at Lan Ling'er out of the corner of his eye, revealing a relieved smile.

Fang Cai's matter was just a small episode, Lan Ling'er was named by the emperor, and there was a moment of consternation, but it was understandable, perhaps in her expectation, the old emperor is now in his prime, Lan Mansion and Mu Wangfu have not been removed, I'm afraid he is reluctant to step into the coffin.

At this time, Concubine Rou on the side chuckled: "The concubine heard that Miss Lan won the first prize at the 'Flower Appreciation Conference' last time, why don't you let her compose a poem on the spot and give it to Prince Luo Yan, don't say that we are neglecting." ”

"yes, yes!" At this time, Concubine Yun also echoed.

Seeing this, the emperor couldn't help but look at Lan Ling'er with a smile, "The two concubines didn't see Ling'er's talent last time, and it's good to let them see it this time." ”

Lan Ling'er paused, thinking that her last poem had already spread all over the world, she didn't believe that these two people hadn't heard it, powerful people always like to have nothing to do. Lan Ling'er was helpless, just looked at Luo Yan, and saw that he was looking at herself with a faint look in his eyes, and there was a hint of expectation in his shallow eyes.

Lan Ling'er was silent for a moment, looked at Luo Yan, and said sincerely: "Forget about a poem, just one sentence, I hope that Luo Yan's son can be chic and happy in the future." ”

"Don't worry about the road ahead without knowing yourself, who in the world doesn't know you." Simple sentences overflowed from Lan Ling'er's mouth, and the syllables jumped and ran into the ears of everyone present, Lan Ling'er clearly saw Luo Yan's body shake, and she didn't even feel the wine glass in her hand spilling.

Suddenly, he smiled sincerely at Lan Ling'er, but after being indifferent, he was so warm.

Suddenly, everyone's applause erupted, and Lan Ling'er sat back in her seat silently, as if they were not praising herself. It's just that at the beginning of the applause, I saw the emperor's admiring voice coming, "Great, what a sentence Who in the world doesn't know you!" Ling'er girl is my Amaterasu's well-deserved first talented girl. ”

When the emperor's words fell, he saw the voice of the eldest princess coming, with a smile, but it did not reach the bottom of his eyes, "Yes!" Such a talented woman must have a good husband worthy of it. ”

Lan Ling'er frowned slightly, just glanced at the eldest princess lightly, and saw that Yan Qin beside her was looking at her with anger on her face, and couldn't help but hook her lips and sneer. Concubine Yun beside the emperor had a trace of embarrassment on her face, presumably remembering the humiliation of the princess's family banquet.

It's just that the emperor didn't take out Dongfang Yi's matter as the eldest princess hoped, no matter what, he is also his own son, no matter how he doesn't kiss it, it is also a piece of meat on his body, he is always better than his sister, and he is still a sister with bad intentions.

"Okay, Miss Lan naturally has her own will." The old emperor said regretfully.

Lan Ling'er couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, if she had to be accused of marrying every time she participated in the palace banquet, then she wouldn't be able to escape even if she had three heads and six arms.

Lan Ling'er looked up at Mu Xinghan not far away, from beginning to end, he was faint, obviously a figure like an immortal, but it seemed to have been forgotten. Just looking at the shy eyes of many women on him, Lan Linger had to sigh that even if he didn't do anything, he was still a spotlight that could gather the eyes of most people.
