In August, osmanthus flowers bloom everywhere, and the fragrance of flowers wafts in the wind. On the eighth day of the eighth month of the Yellow Calendar, Litian and Xiyao got married. On the streets of the capital, the soldiers who maintain order, the huge welcoming procession, and the dozens of miles of red makeup all show that the royal family attaches great importance to this wedding.

There was a small clearing in the crowd, and it was always so out of place with the ground full of people. There were only two women standing in the clearing, and one of them was so red and sores that it made people want to vomit up last night's overnight meal.

"Princess, why do you paint your face like this? Ling'er thinks you looked a little better before. Looking at Lan Meng's disgusting face, Ling'er whispered. Although the princess's face was not good-looking before, it was still better than the current one.

"I think it's good, otherwise there are so many vacant seats for us to stand!" After Lan Meng finished speaking, he deliberately moved to the surrounding crowd, causing the surrounding people to hurriedly give her a small vacant seat.

"Look, how good!" Lan Meng winked at Ling'er proudly. Her childish behavior made Ling'er's forehead go straight to the black line, and if she continued like this, her face would be as thick as a wall for her own princess.

"Look, everyone, the prince and the bride are here!" The crowd watched the welcoming procession shouting loudly, while Lan Meng looked at the horse on horseback with an intriguing expression.

The streets were filled with drums and flowers. Ling'er looked at the silent princess and said comfortingly: "Princess, don't be too sad, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines." ”

Sad? Three wives and four concubines? These words are so inappropriate to apply to her and Litian. She and Litian are just a nominal couple, even if he marries more wives, she doesn't care. She smiled and said to Ling'er: "What's so sad about it, your princess and I are the princess." ”

"Well, princess, you are right to think so, she is just a concubine." Ling'er said sarcastically.

I don't know if the street is too windy, or if the crowd is not noisy enough, the conversation between the two of them is overheard by a ruffian next to them. The ruffian sneered at the two of them and said, "Are you the princess? Young Master Ben is the emperor. ”

"Don't be rude to my princess." Ling'er said angrily to the ruffian.

"Oh, just now it was a princess, and now it's a princess again. You want to be a phoenix and think stupid! As soon as the ruffian finished speaking, the crowd around him burst into laughter.

"You-" The ruffian's words made Ling'er speechless.

"Ling'er, don't make trouble, let's go!" Lan Meng took Ling'er's little hand that was trembling with anger and left the place in a hurry.

Today is the big wedding of Litian, and Lan Meng, who was originally the concubine, had to sit on the wedding banquet and wait for the side concubine to serve tea. Because of the condition of her face, even Imperial Doctor Chen couldn't find out the cause and treat it, so that the wedding could go smoothly. Last night, she called Leng Ran to spread the word, she didn't have to attend today's wedding, and at the same time, she hoped that she could stay in Fengyi Hall at her duty, and don't run around and cause unnecessary panic. If they attract the attention of the soldiers now, then the wedding of Litian will inevitably be affected. At that time, Zhonglin will definitely write to the emperor, and the emperor will inevitably blame him, and it must be Ling'er who will be hurt at that time. Ling'er is like a sister to her, and in this dynasty, she also has someone she wants to protect, that is, Ling'er.

"Hey, ugly bastard, don't go so fast!" The ruffian looked at the backs of the two people who left in a hurry and said proudly.

Suddenly, a figure flashed through the crowd, and before everyone could react, the ruffian screamed, his right hand had been broken, and he was holding the severed hand on the ground and screaming in pain.

"Princess, why are you stopping me?" Ling'er was unwilling to follow behind Lan Meng's buttocks.

"Ling'er, don't forget, how did we come out of the palace today. What will happen if you find out to the prince, don't you know? Lan Meng gave her a sharp look.

Lan Meng's words made Ling'er stunned for a moment, she didn't forget the order given by the prince last night, and then she understood why the princess had to endure other people's insults and pull her away, she lowered her head guiltily: "Ling'er knows it's wrong." ”

"Okay, let's go to the noodle shop, I miss Xiaoling and them."

I haven't been to a noodle shop since I was hunted down by someone else last time, and it's been a few days, so I don't know what the situation of the noodle shop is now.

Ling'er followed Lan Meng to the noodle shop, looking at the familiar signboard with a feeling of nostalgia like 10,000 years away. The two of them walked briskly inside. Sister-in-law Axiu, who was sorting out the account books, saw Lan Meng and walked quickly to her with a worried face: "Ziyi, nothing happened to you, right?" Last time, I asked you to help buy fruit, but you didn't come back, and Cheng and I were worried to death. We want to go to your house to look for you, but we don't know where your home is. ”

"Ziyi, your sister-in-law has been worried about your affairs for a few days and nights. Now that we're okay, we're relieved. Cheng Cai, who was busy in the kitchen, immediately ran out of it as soon as he heard Ziyi's name.

"Your face, though?" Cheng Cai looked at Lan Meng's blushing face and asked cautiously.

"Ziyi, how did your face become like this?" Just now, Sister-in-law Ah Xiu only cared about Lan Meng's personal safety and didn't notice her face.

"It's okay, I deliberately drew this, just to prevent my family from finding out that I came out to play." Lan Meng said with a smile.

"Oh, I see." Cheng Cai and his wife understand that some things are not as simple as Lan Meng said, but they are convinced of Lan Meng, the life-saving benefactor, and never guess about her.

"Ziyi, I want to talk to you about something today, please here!" Cheng Cai said politely to Lan Meng.

Lan Meng followed Cheng Cai to the stone table in the backyard of the noodle shop, looked at the account book that Cheng Cai brought, and asked suspiciously, "This is?" ”

"Ziyi, this is the account book of the two moon noodle shops, you can take a look."

Lan Meng picked up the account book and browsed it, but he didn't expect that although the noodle shop had only been open for two months, the business was still not

Wrong, it feels like she'll be rich before long. At the same time, what she didn't expect was that Cheng Cai's family had hardly touched a penny of money, and she didn't know if he was lucky or she was lucky, everyone met each other.

"Brother Cheng, I also have something to tell you, after a while, I may take away the silver taels you have earned in the past few months, but I will only take it once. The day I ask you for money will mean I'm leaving here. After I leave the capital, this noodle shop will belong to you, and the money you make will be yours. You don't need to save money for me anymore, you can run the store well and take good care of Xiaoling and them. ”

"Your kindness to our whole family, we can't finish it in our lives, how can we still take the noodle shop for ourselves." Cheng Cai didn't understand why Lan Meng was telling him this, but he only knew that he couldn't do what he betrayed her.

Lan Meng handed the account book back into his hand and said seriously: "Brother Cheng, you must remember what I said today. ”

"Ziyi, I can't-" Cheng Cai just wanted to refuse Lan Meng, but was interrupted by a small voice.

"Dad, what do you think I've picked up?"

Xiao Ling pulled a dirty little boy and ran in happily. The moment he saw Lan Meng, he immediately let go of his dirty little hand and threw himself into Lan Meng's arms, shouting happily: "Sister Ziyi! ”

"Humph! Since you let go of the king's hand and hug an ugly monster. The little boy snorted in displeasure.

"Xiaoling, is he?" Lan Meng always felt as if she had seen this little boy somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

"Oh, I almost forgot." Xiao Ling left Lan Meng's arms, came to the little boy, and introduced Lan Meng to the two: "This little brother I picked up on the street just now, he said he was hungry, so I brought him back." ”

"As long as you serve this king well, when this king returns to the palace, this king will appreciate your gold ten thousand taels!" The little boy said, on the shelf.

"This little brother is so strange, he keeps calling himself this king, Sister Ziyi, is he stupid?" Xiaoling asked innocently.

"You're stupid." The little boy said angrily.

This king? Lan Meng looked at the little boy, although it was dirty, but the nobility exuded from his body could not be concealed. Suddenly, some information flashed through her mind, and she couldn't help but stare at the little boy with wide eyes, could he be - the little prince is divorced!
