Chapter 18: Goodbye Dustless
Chapter 18: Goodbye Dustless
This year's flower viewing conference is destined to attract so much attention, Lan Ling'er's refusal to marry, Lan Xuewu's marriage proposal, Mu Xinghan's appearance and temperament, as if all the focus is on the three of them.
After such a fuss, the cherry blossom viewing festival came to an end.
The spring evening still had a hint of coolness, and Lan Ling'er was wearing the snow-white fox fur cloak that Yinghong had prepared earlier, and walked towards the palace gate without hurrying. She had just deliberately walked to the back, otherwise she would have been surrounded by a large group of women.
Thinking back to today's flower-viewing conference, she didn't understand what kind of mind the old emperor had, as well as Dongfang Yi's sudden change, and her good-looking eyebrows were tightly wrinkled together.
Suddenly, a black brocade robe broke into Lan Ling'er's eyes, fortunately she noticed it early, otherwise she would have bumped into it.
At this time, Dongfang Yi appeared in front of Lan Ling'er with a worried face, which made her a little inexplicable, she didn't understand, since Dongfang Yi didn't love herself, how could she do this. Showing his edge like this is undoubtedly not good for him now.
"What do you want to say?" Lan Ling'er asked. There are only a few of them here, and there is no one in the long corridor, Lan Ling'er knows in her heart that it must be Dongfang Yi's hands and feet, but she just fell into contemplation and forgot to pay attention to the situation around her.
Looking at Lan Ling'er's obviously wary look, a trace of pain flashed in Dongfang Yi's eyes, "Do you hate me so much?" β
Lan Ling'er was slightly stunned, obviously she didn't expect Dongfang Yi to ask such a question, but after being stunned for a moment, she chuckled, without any emotion, strange and alienated, "How dare Ling'er hate the second prince." β
"Don't you want to marry me so much?" Dongfang is puzzled.
"Dongfang Yi, you remember, I, Lan Ling'er, will never enter your Second Prince's Mansion in my life." Lan Ling'er's voice cooled down, and she poured out her disgust for Dongfang Yi without reservation. No matter what the reason is for Dongfang Yifei not to marry herself, she will not compromise.
After the words fell, she no longer paid attention to Dongfang Yi and turned to leave, but Lan Ling'er's hand was grabbed by Dongfang Yi, she couldn't help but turn her head angrily, her originally detached face was a little disgusted, "Dongfang Yi, you respect yourself!" β
In an instant, Dongfang Yi paused, looked at the cold Lan Ling'er in front of him incredulously, and said faintly: "Reason, you give me a reason." β
Lan Ling'er smiled, at this time she was no longer an expressionless smile, but with self-deprecation, hatred, and disgust... With all the mixed emotions, she didn't know what else she could do but laugh.
"Reason?" Lan Ling'er tilted her head and asked, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes, "Okay, I'll tell you, the reason is that I hate you, and I've always hated you." β
As he spoke, he shook off his hand heavily and walked away quickly. Dongfang Yi was left alone to stand in place, as if it was a wooden stake, gradually melting into the night.
When Lan Ling'er returned to Lan Mansion, Lan Yuan had already greeted her, presumably because she had heard about the events of the day, but when she saw Lan Ling'er looking tired, she moved her lips and didn't say anything, so she took her back to the main courtyard.
What caught my eye was the Xiwei light on the table and the rich dishes on it, all of which Lan Ling'er liked, and couldn't help but wet her eyes, "Thank you, Daddy!" β
But seeing Lan Yuan, he couldn't help but laugh and scolded: "Why are you majestic outside, and you cry to me at every turn when you get home?" β
Lan Ling'er was suddenly moved, and couldn't help but glance at Lan Yuan idly, and said, "Isn't this for your glorious image outside?" You see, now who doesn't say that Lan Cheng is as affectionate as the sea to his wife, cares for his daughter, and teaches his daughter to be sensible and virtuous. β
saw Lan Yuan instantly gloomy, "Ling'er has ever blamed Daddy?" β
Lan Ling'er knew that she had said the wrong thing, and seeing Lan Yuan's momentary sluggish mood, she couldn't help but scold herself, stepped forward and hugged Lan Yuan's arm, and said coquettishly: "How can I blame my father, as long as my father doesn't blame me for lifting our backyard when the time comes." β
Lan Yuan looked at Lan Ling'er, who had reached his shoulder, tapped her forehead, and said with a smile: "You! Even if it was a fire, Daddy was supportive. β
Lan Ling'er was slightly stunned, opened her mouth, but didn't say anything, just rubbed her face on Lan Yuan's arm, and muttered, "It's better for our father." β
Lan Yuan pulled her out of his arms and scolded with a smile: "Dead girl, I'm not good to you, who else is good to you?" It's time to eat. β
It was already late when Lan Ling'er returned to her Lingyue Pavilion from the main courtyard, and Ying Hong had already dozed off because she couldn't bear it. Lan Ling'er asked her to go to sleep by herself, then changed into a light blue dress, left, and disappeared into the dark night.
Coming to the edge of the cliff where Gong Wuchen took her last time, there was no Gong Wuchen's figure, Lan Ling'er was slightly disappointed, but she also jumped down, but there was a slight cool temperature in the palm of her hand halfway, Lan Ling'er's heart moved, but she didn't open her eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly.
The steadiness of her feet on the ground, which made her lift her fan-like eyelashes, and in front of her was the mask of Gong Wuchen's white jade, revealing a trace of coldness under such moonlight, as if it was going to cool into people's hearts.
Unconsciously, Lan Ling'er blurted out, "Why are you wearing a white jade mask?" β
I didn't expect Lan Ling'er to ask so directly, Gong Wuchen was slightly stunned, the corners of his mouth that were not covered under the mask were slightly raised, at this time Lan Ling'er also realized his recklessness, and said embarrassedly: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to say it, I just want to know if you are disfigured, so you don't dare to come out to meet people." β
Suddenly, Lan Ling'er was embarrassed by her excuse, took out the small hand held by Gong Wuchen, walked around his body, faced the hot spring, looked left and right, and said: "It's still the same here, it hasn't changed at all, you see the flowers here are so beautiful, look at this waterΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
Lan Ling'er talked for a long time, but seeing that no one responded, she couldn't help but turn around curiously, but she happened to see the corners of Gong Wuchen's raised mouth, and couldn't help but smile silently.
"How did you know I was coming?" Lan Ling'er asked.
Gong Wuchen didn't answer her question, but joked: "Miss Prime Minister's Mansion treats people generously, repays grievances with virtue, and is as beautiful as a flower, not to mention that she is still talented, and she has become the ideal daughter-in-law of the entire Amaterasu Kingdom for a while." It's really enviable! β
Lan Ling'er was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect the events of the day, Gong Wuchen knew it so quickly, and then learned his tone, and said: "The main palace of the Dustless Mountain Villa is dustless, white-clothed and dust-free, respects the rivers and lakes, acts dissolutely, arrogant and arrogant, martial arts are unique in the world, and the perennial white jade covers the face, but it makes many daughters yearn for it." β
"Haha..." Suddenly, the two of them laughed at the same time, and the crisp laughter of Gong Wuchen and Lan Ling'er sounded in the dark night, startling countless sleeping birds.
"Then may I ask our dust-free owner who is alone in the world, you may guess what happened to the door today?" Lan Ling'er teased.
Gong Wuchen looked at her with a smile, and then pinched his orchid finger, really pinched his fingers, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and said, "It seems that Miss Lan has something to ask for today." β
Lan Ling'er was stunned for a moment, and then she stopped beating around the bush, she had already guessed Gong Wuchen's identity, and she really had something to ask for this time.
"I want that kind of medicine that can improve my martial arts cultivation in a short time, can you give it to me?" Lan Ling'er didn't ask him if he had it, but asked him directly, because she knew that Gong Wuchen must have it.
Hearing this, Gong Wuchen just paused slightly, his eyes locked on Lan Ling'er, and said, "You almost died last time, do you know?" β
A hint of surprise flashed in Lan Ling'er's eyes, and then she smiled, "I don't know, but I also know that I am not far from death." "Yes, such a heart-rending pain, I guess hell is like this. I'm afraid that Hades won't dare to accept her.
Gong Wuchen glanced at her coldly, "I really don't know who gave you that bottle of potion of yours, and I won't tell you how to use it in advance." As he spoke, he looked at Lan Ling'er carefully, and wondered, "Could it be someone who wants to harm you?" Have you provoked some enemies? β
Lan Ling'er was speechless for a moment, but thinking about her mother, it was really unreliable, so she gave it to her without saying how to use it.
"Don't worry, I'm fine now, and I definitely won't have any enemies."
"Really? You're the leader at the cherry blossom viewing event, so you're sure you won't provoke any enemies? The eldest princess was trying to marry Dongfang Qin and Yan Qin this time, but she was all muddied by you. β
Lan Ling'er chuckled, how could she not know the eldest princess's calculations, it's just that she is not a person who can tolerate it, doesn't Dongfang Qin want to marry Mu Xinghan? She just couldn't let her get her wish, not to mention, through this incident, it would be more convenient for her to act in the future, why not.
"You already knew!" Gong Wuchen asserted.
Lan Ling'er nodded slightly, answering his question, "Do you want to give me medicine?" Don't worry, I will definitely return the favor to you in the future. β
"Who told you to pay it back." Gong Wuchen Liang Liang Road.
The cold tone was more similar to his temperament, Lan Ling'er couldn't help but be slightly stunned, frowning, but didn't say anything.
"I don't have this potion, I advise you to practice martial arts by yourself, don't think about what you have or don't have. Ice Edge is a top-notch martial arts cheat, as long as you practice it well, you will definitely not be bad. β
Lan Ling'er obviously didn't believe Gong Wuchen's words, but she was helpless, she knew that people like Gong Wuchen, what they said, there was no possibility of changing.
It's just that the day after tomorrow is the day after tomorrow, and she can't fail, and she doesn't allow herself to fail.
Lan Ling'er frowned, but she didn't say anything, she didn't have a bargaining chip to negotiate with Gong Wuchen now, she originally came to him just to try it, since people didn't agree, she couldn't fight, she couldn't win if she robbed, and it was even more impossible to steal.
Looking at Lan Ling'er's back as she didn't say a word and slowly left, Gong Wuchen's face was slightly gloomy, Ruyu's right hand stretched out and fell, and sighed heavily, "Lan Ling'er!" β
