Chapter 36: The First Shot

Dongfang Qin lifted a stone and hit herself in the foot, Lan Ling'er also accepted it when she saw it, the women on the main seat were all human spirits, and she didn't need to go for trouble.

Halfway through the banquet, the atmosphere gradually became lively, everyone left their seats and walked around, the eldest princess and the two concubines in the palace also chatted separately, and Dongfang Qin and Yan Qin were surrounded by many girls. It may be that Luo Xiyun has a cold temperament, but as a guest, she still sits quietly, and Luo Yan was pulled over by Dongfang Yu and other princes early to chat.

Lan Ling'er was also bored for a while, looking at the wine glass in front of her in a daze, she had never drunk, and she only used tea at this kind of banquet, she didn't like the taste of wine in her previous life, and she didn't want to be confused in this life.

Noticing a touch of pure white in front of her, Lan Ling'er raised her head, squinted her eyes slightly, and looked at Luo Xiyun who suddenly appeared in front of her, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"I wonder if Xiyun has the honor to have a drink with Miss Lan?"

Looking at the wine glass handed over by Luo Xiyun, for some reason, Lan Ling'er felt a burst of disgust, "Why does Miss Luo like toasting people so much?" Lan Ling'er said with a smile.

Seeing that a crack finally appeared on Luo Xiyun's indifferent face, he smiled stiffly and said, "I just want to make friends with Miss Lan." ”

"I'm sorry, Ling'er doesn't drink a drop of wine." Lan Ling'er said helplessly. What came to mind was Mu Xinghan's coughing and wheezing after drinking, although he didn't know how much it was true or how much it was false, but he also inexplicably felt a little unhappy with the white-clothed woman in front of him.

saw that Luo Xiyun didn't mean to leave, but just handed the wine glass to the maid behind him, "How long have you known Mu Shizi?" ”

Lan Ling'er raised her eyebrows slightly, and secretly sighed in her heart that Mu Xinghan's peach blossoms were too much, because his words made Dongfang Qin not hesitate to let go of the princess's arrogance, and used her body as a bet to frame her. And Luo Xiyun had such a temptation just because Mu Xinghan was sitting beside him.

"Soon, we've only met a few times."

Luo Xiyun frowned slightly, a trace of mismatched sorrow appeared on her beautiful face, and then her watery eyes stared at Lan Ling'er, "I'm seventeen years old this year, you are younger than me, can I call you Sister Lan in the future?" ”

Lan Ling'er was speechless for a moment, but she also nodded with a chuckle. She suddenly found that maybe Luo Xiyun just didn't know how to deal with these young ladies, thinking that she had grown up under the protection of Luo Yan since she was a child, and the water lotus flowers in the greenhouse bloomed extremely beautifully, but they were too clean.

Seeing the smile that instantly bloomed on Luo Xiyun's face, the original trace of unhappiness towards her seemed to disappear with such a smile.

"What are you talking about? So happy! ”

Lan Ling'er turned her head sideways, and saw Luo Yan, who was dressed in a light purple robe, appeared behind her at some point, with a gentle aura on her indifferent face, her eyes were projected on Luo Xiyun, and she was a little spoiled.

Seeing Luo Yan appear, Luo Xiyun smiled coquettishly, like a pure water lotus, with a hint of delicate red, "Why did my brother come over?" ”

"I don't think you're here alone." For the first time, Lan Ling'er found that Luo Yan's indifferent voice could still have such gentleness, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned. It's just that what he said doesn't seem to be very appropriate.

"Is Young Master Luo afraid that I will bully Sister Xiyun?" Lan Ling'er couldn't help but quip.

Without waiting for Luo Yan to speak, he saw Luo Xiyun reply first: "Sister Lan didn't bully me, brother, don't worry." ”

"Okay, I'm just kidding, I came here to ask when you're going back?"

Suddenly, Luo Xiyun's face became bitter, and he said sullenly: "I don't want to go back." ”

Luo Yan's indifferent face did not show the slightest surprise, as if he had expected it a long time ago, and smiled, "If you don't go back, where will you live?" A good lady, you can't always sleep with me. ”

Luo Xiyun swore and said: "I can do it, I'm not afraid of hardship." ”

Suddenly, she looked at Lan Ling'er with bright eyes, and said with a smile: "Sister Lan, can I live in your house?" As he spoke, he looked at Luo Yan as if showing off, "So you don't have to worry about me." ”

Lan Ling'er was speechless for a moment, and was about to refuse, but she heard Luo Yan say, "You! How can you bother others so much? ”

Seeing Luo Xiyun pursing her lips, Luo Yan couldn't help but chuckle, looked at Lan Ling'er and said helplessly: "I'm really sorry, my sister is too rude, it's just that Miss Lan doesn't dislike it, just let her stay with you for a few nights." She has never lived outside, and this time it was really inconvenient to come out of the guest house. ”

Lan Linger's heart suddenly fell, her face stiffened slightly, but at this time, she heard Concubine Yun smile and said, "It seems that Miss Lan is really pleased!" There are so many young ladies and princesses here, Miss Xiyun insists on living with you, isn't this fate? ”

If you refuse again, it will be a toast and not eat and drink, Lan Ling'er had to agree hard, "It is Ling'er's honor to let Sister Xiyun live in the house." ”

"Then I'll thank you on behalf of my sister." As he spoke, Luo Yan's eyes flashed slightly, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, "It seems that Miss Lan is really virtuous, if there is anything that my sister can't do properly, Yan will apologize here first." ”

Lan Ling'er sneered: "Young Master Yan also impressed Ling'er!" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare. Miss Lan has won the prize. ”

"Ling'er, Miss Xue Wu is gone." Itsuki said softly.

Lan Ling'er's beautiful eyes glanced at the audience, and if she really didn't see Lan Xuewu's figure, she couldn't help frowning slightly, glanced at Luo Yan, who was looking at her suspiciously, and chuckled: "Ling'er still has something to do, so she will be out of company first, and when the banquet is dispersed, there will naturally be a carriage to pick up Miss Xiyun." ”

Looking at Lan Ling'er's back as she left indifferently, Luo Yan muttered, "Did you really forget?" A hint of loneliness flashed in his eyes. It seems to isolate all the prosperity around him, leaving him alone with his independence.

Coming to a slightly remote place, Lan Ling'er said in a low voice: "When did you not see you?" ”

"It's not long ago, and I followed the second prince."

Following the direction of Yi Yue's finger, Lan Ling'er's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a weird smile, at this time, she saw Dongfang Yi and Lan Xuewu slowly appearing, one after the other, obviously deliberately keeping a distance. Dongfang Yi's face is still as warm as ever.

And Lan Xuewu was with a trace of unwillingness, with grievances, obviously absent-minded, and her delicate face was clouded.

Touching Lan Ling'er's eyes, Dongfang Yi's footsteps paused slightly, but he saw Lan Ling'er blooming a bright smile, which was a beautiful charm that Dongfang Yi had never seen before, and his heart suddenly fell, it was a beautiful face, but it made him feel a chill coming.

Lan Ling'er looked at Mu Yuyan again, and at this time, her eyes were like poison, staring closely at Dongfang Yi and Lan Xuewu one after the other, and her jealousy made her unable to notice Lan Xuewu's ugly face.

"Sister Yuyan, are you uncomfortable?" Lan Ling'er wondered, with a hint of pity on her face.

Mu Yuyan came back to her senses at this time, and forced a weak smile, "It's okay." ”

Lan Ling'er followed her gaze, it was Dongfang Yi in the crowd, and couldn't help but chuckle, "It seems that Sister Yuyan really has a soft spot for the second prince!" ”

Seeing that Mu Yuyan was stunned for a moment, her face became even more gloomy, Lan Ling'er couldn't help but sigh: "It's normal for someone like the second prince to like it, hasn't that girl like Xue Wu for so long?" ”

Mu Yuyan obviously didn't want to say anything, Lan Ling'er saw that her face was gradually becoming pale, held her hand, and said with a smile: "You, don't worry, keep the clouds open and see the moon." The second prince will see you. ”

"Will it?" Mu Yuyan looked at Lan Ling'er in confusion.

In an instant, Lan Ling'er felt a trace of unbearability in her heart, but she quickly wiped away all her hesitation, and said with a smile: "Of course it will, if he doesn't see it, you let him see it." ”

A glimmer of light flashed in Mu Yuyan's eyes, but it was only fleeting, and then disappeared, "He is a high-ranking prince, and there are so many people around him, I am just a side branch lady of Mu Mansion, how can you see me?" ”

saw Lan Ling'er chuckling, "There will always be a reason for him to marry you, just like Xue Wu, the emperor has an order, and the second prince has to abide by it, right?" ”

Seeing Mu Yuyan deep in thought, Lan Ling'er hooked her lips slightly, and walked away, no matter what method she used, Dongfang Yi would definitely not be able to escape the entanglement of these two women.

Lan Ling'er gradually left the crowd and came to a remote corner of the princess's garden, without anyone disturbing her, and a trace of vitality could be shown in the shade of the trees in late spring. Looking at the flowers blooming in front of you, the bees and butterflies are around, and it is very lively, but once the flowers are gone, they are left desolate.

"Are you sad about the spring?"

The ridicule behind her made Lan Ling'er slightly stunned, and when she turned her head, she saw that Gong Wuchen appeared on a verdant tree at some point, as chic and mysterious as when she first saw her. What kind of person is he? Lan Ling'er couldn't help but wonder in her heart. The owner of Wuchen Mountain Villa has the status of the rivers and lakes that the royal family of Amaterasu cannot shake, he and Mu Xinghan can be regarded as the two most troublesome characters of the old emperor.

One is close at hand, but there is nothing to do, and the other is far away and nowhere to be seen. But she was the only one who met her, all of them were dressed in white, they were all unparalleled in the world, and any one of them came out, even if the world was shaken.

Without answering Gong Wuchen's question, Lan Ling'er asked rhetorically: "Do you know Mu Xinghan, the prince of Mu Wangfu?" ”

But seeing that Gong Wuchen was slightly stunned, his brows under the mask were furrowed, he took a deep look at Lan Ling'er, then got up, came to her side in an instant, and said with a smile: "You know, isn't Mu Xinghan's name known all over the world?" ”

Lan Ling'er chuckled, "Actually, I think you are quite similar to him." ”

"Oh..." Gong Wuchen played with the taste: "What's the like?" ”

"They are all people with outstanding talents, and they are all people who the royal family wants to get rid of, I'm afraid that the two of you are alive in the world, and the old emperor will not turn a blind eye even if he dies."

"Haha..." Gong Wuchen couldn't help laughing, "It seems that you quite understand the old emperor's thoughts." ”

Lan Ling'er was silent. How could she not understand? If she still doesn't understand, then wouldn't the hardships in her previous life be in vain, Dongfang Yi is just the executor, and the old emperor is the real black hand behind the scenes.

"You just blamed yourself for what you did?" Seeing that Lan Ling'er didn't want to talk about it, Gong Wuchen automatically changed the topic.

Seeing Lan Ling'er frowning slightly, her beautiful face was indescribably charming, and then she laughed at herself, "How can you blame yourself?" Mu Yuyan has to pay a little price for using me, and besides, I'm just a little bit of a little bit of appropriation. What she does depends on her understanding. As for, Dongfang Yi? Lan Ling'er sneered, and didn't explain, her expression represented everything.

Gong Wuchen said with a presence: "Has anyone ever said that you are like a demon?" ”

Lan Ling'er was stunned, but when she saw Gong Wuchen, she couldn't help laughing. and did not pursue it.

It's just that Gong Wuchen's smiling eyes were full of brilliance, looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, thinking, isn't it a demon? Stubborn to make people crazy, strong enough to make people feel distressed, so beautiful that people are excited, not kind enough, not gentle enough, not virtuous enough, even too smart and too confused, but they are all good, people can't let go.

Shaking off those thoughts in his heart, Gong Wuchen suddenly came to Lan Ling'er and said with a smile: "How about we go to the play?" ”
