Chapter 273: Affectionate Past

"I... I'm sorry! Lan Ling'er said softly.

With a chuckle, Dongfang Zhi turned her head sideways, held Lan Ling'er's hands, and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, speaking of which, I have to thank you." My father's death was caused by the royal family anyway, and I couldn't stand indifferent and watch my father-in-law live and die for my enemy. ”

"What's more, I can't guarantee that in the process, I won't be harmed, and my baby won't be harmed, right? Life here is natural and peaceful, and it is very good for the fetus, and my brother and sister-in-law are very good to me. Just, what's wrong with him? ”

Looking at Dongfang Zhi's abdomen, a soft light flashed in Lan Ling'er's eyes, and she chuckled: "There was a flood in the south, and my brother went to the rescue." It's going to be fine. ”

Nodding, Dongfang Zhi stopped putting her thoughts here, touched her stomach, and said gently: "He has been six months, only one month later than Princess Yanqin alone, but he is naughty." ”

"Miss Lan, Madame is looking for you!"

Mama's voice came, and Lan Ling'er understood in an instant that the lady must be the eldest princess, a trace of strangeness flashed in her eyes, and she got up to say goodbye.

Lan Ling'er came to a simple and comfortable room, and the eldest princess was already sitting at the table, looking at her with a smile on her face, her heart moved, and she couldn't help but think of the fierce woman she saw when they met for the first time. At this time, she seems to have a little more vicissitudes, and she wants to suffer a lot outside.

The wrinkles at the corners of her eyebrows inadvertently climbing the mountain, and the few white threads faintly visible in her hair, Lan Ling'er saw in her eyes, whether she would end up like this when the dust settled.

"It's not good-looking."

The eldest princess suddenly spoke, although it was a pity, Lan Ling'er couldn't hear the slightest dissatisfaction, but with ridicule and relief.

"It's not old, it's just getting gentle." Lan Ling'er stepped forward with a smile and sat opposite her.

I saw that the eldest princess looked at her deeply, frowned suddenly, and quipped: "Why didn't I find you talking like this before?" ”

Without waiting for Lan Ling'er to answer, the eldest princess took the lead and said, "Yes, I didn't give you a good face when we first met." Lan Ling'er, you are really as I guessed, different! ”

The corners of her mouth hooked slightly, Lan Ling'er didn't speak, but looked out the window, she was no different, but at that time, she had a deep hatred, so she was on guard everywhere. People always have to grow up in all kinds of difficulties and hardships to become more and more cautious.

The rain began to fall again, and I don't know when it was a head. The rain in summer is not as good as in spring, and the spring is endless, lingering, and the weather is gloomy, and it is a whole day or a whole night. In summer, however, there is more or less impatience, often when it rains, and then the sun comes out, and then it rains again, just like at this time.

"There must be a flood out there, right?" The eldest princess also followed Lan Ling'er's gaze to look out the window at the dripping rain.

After a slight pause, Lan Ling'er nodded and said, "Mu Shizi and Prime Minister Xuan Cheng have separated from each other to go to disaster relief." ”

nodded, as if it was not unexpected by the eldest princess, but sighed: "Yu'er is not suitable to be an emperor, I found out when he was very young, his character is cowardly and indecisive at the same time. Someone's ambition will gradually become stronger, and his ambition will gradually wear out as the years change. ”

Lan Ling'er didn't say anything, she didn't turn her head, and the eldest princess didn't care at all, she looked out the window lightly, and continued: "He is a good boy, and the reason why Concubine De does not agree with him being the emperor is also because of this, after all, no mother in the world is willing to let her child take risks." In the final analysis, Concubine De died because of me, but Yu'er was able to keep me by her side in the end, which is also my blessing. ”

"Ahh Those rivers and mountains are picturesque, I felt full of ambition at the beginning, but when I look at it today, it is just a passing cloud, how can it compare to the health and happiness of Qin'er and Yu'er? The eldest princess was relieved in her voice, and Lan Ling'er listened in a trance.

For a long time, neither of them spoke, until Dongfang Yu's intrusion, they turned their heads sideways, but saw him smile and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you." ”

They all shook their heads, and Dongfang Yu asked with a smile: "I just want to ask, Third Emperor Brother..." What happened to the third brother? ”

Lan Ling'er's eyes flashed, when the emperor died last time, Dongfang Yu went to look for her, and naturally heard about Dongfang Qi's matter, and replied: "Still in prison, no one dares to treat him badly, Dongfang Jiaoyang doesn't seem to plan to deal with him directly, he should be waiting for Mo Yu." ”

Seeing that both of them were puzzled, Lan Ling'er couldn't help but explain: "Mo Yu likes Dongfang Qi, if Mo Yu is controlled, he can also contain Mo Qi to a certain extent, and Mo Kite is Dongfang Qi's favorite, but now Mo Kite has lost his memory, and the entanglement between the three is not clear." ”

"I never thought that in the end, the winner of the royal family would be the sun." Dongfang Yu sighed, with a hint of incredulity on his face.

Lan Ling'er said lightly: "The current emperor is Luo Yan!" But the government is actually a tug-of-war between the two. ”

"What?" Dongfang Yu was incredulous, while the eldest princess was obviously much calmer.

"Xiaoyaozi is still alive! Otherwise, Dongfang Jiaoyang would not have such a big help. When Qi'er and Jiaoyang joined forces to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors, and killed Xiaoyaozi, I felt strange, after all, the existence of Xiaoyaozi is not something ordinary people can shake. Since then, the first emperor has handed over all the forces of the rivers and lakes to Jiaoyang. It's just that you don't know it. ”

"So, perhaps, from the very beginning, Jiaoyang was the candidate recognized by the emperor, but she was good at disguise and deceived everyone." The eldest princess said lightly, after all, she is the one who has accompanied Dongfang Madness all the way, so she naturally knows who he is.

It's just that when he was mentioned, he was also replaced by the first emperor, without the slightest emotion, thinking about it, she was also disappointed in this younger brother.

"Is there any connection between Xiaoyaozi and the sun?" Lan Ling'er thought of the man in black that Mo Lin saw in the palace, she always thought that it was Xiaoyaozi.

sneered twice, the eldest princess's eyes turned cold, but she finally said calmly: "Xin Guiren is actually not a palace maid, just a common person, I was unintentionally rescued, and then because the palace needs my people, I trained her, and designed her to get acquainted with the emperor, the two fell in love, and Xu Xin naturally got favor." ”

At this point, the eldest princess paused, a little sadness flashed in her eyes, and said: "At that time, I had never married, on the one hand, to assist the first emperor, and on the other hand, I had long fallen in love with Xiaoyaozi, the leader of the Dongfang family's forces in the rivers and lakes. Both of them knew it, but they didn't say it explicitly. It's just that since Xu Xin was in my house, the two of them have been going back and forth, and they have become acquainted, and later, Xu Xin entered the palace, and Xiaoyaozi wanted to stop it, but I designed to stop it. After that, Xiaoyaozi never came to the princess's mansion again, but ran to the palace. ”

"That noble man?" Lan Ling'er was halfway through her words, but the eldest princess already understood.

smiled and said: "Her death has nothing to do with me, she was indeed killed by Concubine Rou, at that time, the emperor was fascinated by the innocence of the noble people, and ran to her almost every night, which naturally made Concubine Rou think." I just didn't stop it. ”

It turned out that Dongfang Jiaoyang's mother concubine was really victimized by Concubine Rou, and Concubine Rou has always felt guilty about Dongfang Jiaoyang, so she was so fond of her.

Xiaoyaozi is the master of all princes, so he naturally teaches them martial arts, but he is different from the oriental sun. Why did Dongfang Jiaoyang and Dongfang Qi kill their master at all costs, and after that, since Xiaoyaozi was not dead, why were they willing to let Dongfang Jiaoyang go?

Seeing Lan Ling'er's doubts, the eldest princess also frowned slightly, and said inadvertently: "When Jiaoyang was a child, he and Xu Xin were almost carved out of the same mold, so they were deeply liked by the emperor, but later, they became more and more rounded, and these eyebrows, eyes, and temperament are no longer as gentle and elegant as Xu Xin." ”

With her heart moving, Lan Ling'er remained silent and said, "What kind of person is Xiaoyaozi?" ”

After pondering for a moment, the eldest princess replied: "She looks suave, has a strange personality, does things quickly, and is ruthless, so she has won the trust of the emperor. It's just that when Jiaoyang and Qi'er killed him, the emperor didn't blame him too much. The indifferent voice seemed to have completely let go of such a person.

"Maybe it's because the world of the Dongfang family was originally snatched back from the Nangong family by using the power of the rivers and lakes, and the emperor was afraid that history would repeat itself." Lan Ling'er said lightly, but it made the eldest princess and Dongfang Yu's eyes widen, after all, this is Amaterasu's secret, how did she know?

Lan Ling'er sneered, but she didn't explain, she looked at the eldest princess and said, "The Eastern Sun must be the flesh and blood of the first emperor?" ”

Stunned for a moment, the eldest princess had a deep shock on her face, but Dongfang Yu on the side had already answered: "How could a cautious person like my father allow such a thing to happen, although Master's personality is eccentric, he will never force the woman he likes to do what she doesn't like to do." Since Xu Xin was able to leave him and enter the palace, it proved that she actually wanted power and money. And the master has always been an unsightly existence of the Oriental family, and there are naturally many constraints with him. ”

Nodding thoughtfully, Lan Ling'er stopped talking, she knew enough things today.

When he went back to the prison to see Dongfang Qi, he didn't know anything about the news that Xiaoyaozi was still alive, thinking that someone wanted to deliberately hide it from him, but why did Dongfang Jiaoyang hide it from Dongfang Qi, and Dongfang Qi's pity and maintenance for Dongfang Jiaoyang.

Glancing at the sky, it was already afternoon at this time, and she was about to leave, Lan Ling'er got up and said, "I'll leave first, the entrance to the Prince's Mansion may be discovered, do you want to completely destroy it?" ”

After a moment of silence, Dongfang Yu and the eldest princess glanced at each other and nodded, "I'm sorry for you!" ”

Smiling, Lan Ling'er turned to leave, and Dongfang Yu hurriedly caught up, "I'll send you!" ”

Looking at the plum forest in front of him, the beautiful scenery of white snow and red plums was replayed in his mind, the corners of Lan Ling'er's mouth hooked slightly, Dongfang Yu saw her like this, a trace of strangeness flashed in his eyes, and said: "If there is still a chance, this winter, when the plum blossoms bloom, remember to come over to taste wine and enjoy the plum blossoms!" ”

"Good!" As he spoke, he saw Lan Ling'er using light skills, and left dozens of zhang away in an instant. Dongfang Yu saw the slender back disappear, chuckled and turned around, and returned to the house.
