In the grass pavilion, although Zhang Huixin coaxed patience, King Zhou still shook his head vigorously from time to time, just holding the cushion and not letting go.

Chen Lan took a teacup from the purse, poured a cup of tea and turned around and walked in front of King Zhou. After a lot of effort, King Zhou finally let go of the two cushions he was holding, hesitated to hold the teacup and took two sips, and then as if he was afraid of being robbed, he poured them all into his mouth at once, and immediately choked and coughed again and again. Zhang Huixin was busy coaxing and coaxing, while Chen Lan hurriedly went to get the box, opened it, and found that it was full of candied fruits of all colors, but they were all pitted.

After drinking tea, chewing candied fruits with puffed out cheeks, and holding Chen Lan's hand stove, King Zhou's expression finally calmed down, looked at the two grinning, nodded and said, "You are good people, the baby likes it." ”

Zhang Huixin pursed his lips and smiled, then pulled Chen Lan away and sat down, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, Brother Baby is like this, as long as you treat him well, he will also smile at you, the most fun person." After I came back, I entered the palace a few times, and I stayed in other palaces for a while before leaving, and every time I went to Concubine Xian's mother, I would always play with my baby brother for a while. Don't look at him like this, I like to tell stories outside the palace the most, and Concubine Xian also likes to listen to them. ”

Chen Lan had also heard that King Zhou was stupid before, but from ancient times to the present, fools in the royal family are really rare, but there are many examples of pretending to be crazy and stupid, so she once felt that King Zhou was the same. At this moment, she just asked, Zhang Huixin didn't shy away from it, and all of them poured out.

It turned out that Lin Taikan, the king of Zhou, was congenitally deficient, and he couldn't see it at first, but when he was two or three years old, he gradually showed clues. Because his biological mother is Concubine Wuxian, whom the emperor respects a lot, and the emperor and empress pity his illness, he has always been able to eat, drink, heal and provide medicine, and he has never suffered any grievances since he was a child. Before King Jin married a concubine, the courtiers also discussed to give the emperor's eldest son King Zhou a concubine, but the emperor was persuaded by Concubine Wu Xian's words not to delay the famous Shuyuan, and in the end, a palace maid who served King Zhou since childhood said that she was willing to serve King Zhou for a lifetime, so she was named Mrs.

"Concubine Xian is very good, if it weren't for my mother saying that she was afraid of getting into trouble, she would almost recognize me as her goddaughter. The baby's brother is also very good, although I have to re-explain who I am every time I enter the palace, but once he thinks you are a good person, he will give me the good things he treasures. My mother said, don't look at outsiders and sigh when they talk about it, but he may not be a blessing like this...... Anyway, I don't know any of this, I don't have any brothers and sisters at home to play with, and it's not bad to have a baby brother...... By the way, good sister, today's Lantern Festival, there is a lantern festival in the alley of the light market at night, how about we take the baby brother out to see it? ”

Although he liked Zhang Huixin's rare straight temperament, Chen Lan thought about his current situation, so he had to shake his head apologetically to her: "Let's not talk about how His Royal Highness King Zhou came out today, even if it is our family, we will not be allowed to go out and mess around like this." The light market is mixed, who can afford to do something? ”

"That's what I said, it doesn't matter to me, the people who follow me have to be severely punished when they go back." Zhang Huixin sighed and lowered his head, and then remembered Chen Lan's other question, and immediately raised his head and looked around, "What happened to Brother Yang that Brother Baby just said, even if it is me, he often doesn't remember, how can he remember what Brother Yang remembers?" Just because in addition to Niangniang, he is his brother and sister, and Niangniang doesn't know how many times he has said it, but he can't change it. ”

Chen Lan hadn't taken the vaguely heard three words of Brother Yang to heart before, but at this time, Zhang Huixin mentioned it again, and her heart suddenly moved. Although the surname Yang is not rare, all she knows is the Yang family of Runing Bo and the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Yang Jinzhou, but if she really talks about bringing the king of Zhou out, that close minister of the Son of Heaven is the most likely.

After thinking about it, she whispered: "It's really strange to say, even if it is hide and seek with His Royal Highness King Zhou, there shouldn't be a single person who follows him!" ”

The two of them were looking around, and Chen Lan faintly heard a human voice, vaguely a man's voice, and hurriedly pulled Zhang Huixin, and pointed to the direction where the voice came from, signaling that someone was coming, and they had better retreat. Who knew that Zhang Huixin shook his head and said, "No, you can't leave your baby brother here alone." If someone comes, I have to ask them how they followed and served, why should there be someone left in this grass pavilion to guard, what if something happens! ”

At this moment, the direction from which the voice came from suddenly was a miserable scream, followed by a sudden silence. For this situation, Chen Lan felt that something was wrong, but except for Zhang Huixin, who was the stupid King of Zhou, the grass pavilion was cleaned up and there was not even a straw pole, so she had to put her heart sideways, and simply took the purple clay pot, thinking that if something happened, there would be many guys who smashed people.

In a short time, a figure sprang out from Merlin's side, with a large blood stain on his front placket and a blood-dripping dagger in his hand. Seeing this situation, Rao is Zhang Hui was not afraid, and his legs immediately became weak at this time, but he still tried his best to block in front of King Zhou, and Chen Lan, who was holding the purple clay pot, felt that his scalp was numb.

You must know that this is in the palace of the King of Jin, plus there are many guests, how can it be on guard, how could a murderous assassin run in?

When the assassin saw the scene of the three people here, he was stunned for a moment, and then he stomped his feet and rushed over. At this moment, although Chen Lan was stiff, he still mustered up his strength, slammed the purple clay pot towards the assassin, and then pulled Zhang Huixin with one hand, and pulled the sleeve of King Zhou, who was full of curiosity with the other, and ran towards the other end of the grass pavilion.

The assassin originally saw that there were only three people here, and two of them were women, but he didn't expect someone to make a move, so he couldn't dodge and hit his left shoulder, but after all, it was only warm water in the teapot, and Chen Lan's strength was not great, so he only stopped, and continued to rush forward a few steps. Seeing that he was about to rush into the grass pavilion, he saw another person flash out from behind a plum tree, but he shook his hand without saying a word.

As soon as Chen Lan, who heard the movement, turned around, and at the moment when she saw the face of the person who made the shot, the assassin who pounced on her earlier had already fallen to the ground with a thud, with a dagger deep in his calf, and blood was gushing.

The person who intercepted there also ran in three or two steps, but he didn't look at the three of them, he directly unloaded the chin of the person on the ground, and then twisted both arms, only to hear two clicks, and the two arms seemed to be soft and dislocated, so he took off his belt and pierced the man's injured calf three or two times, pulled out the dagger violently, and took out the wound medicine from his arms and sprinkled it. Several actions are done in one go, without dragging the mud and water at all.

After doing this, the person who came left the assassin behind, stepped forward directly, gently lifted his robe and knelt down on one knee: "Your Highness, forgive me, it's too late to humble your duties." ”

At this time, Chen Lan felt a real fear, and suddenly let go of the hand holding Zhang Huixin, and at the same time loosened King Zhou's sleeve. But King Zhou didn't seem to be aware of the danger just now, stepped forward with a smile, squatted down in front of the comer, and looked at him with great interest: "Brother Yang is so powerful, the baby wants to learn!" ”

Yang Jin Zhou saw that the thick coat worn by King Zhou had been dragged on the ground, and the corners of his mouth were still stained with candied frosting, he couldn't help sighing, quickly straightened up his legs, and helped King Zhou up to the side to sit down, then turned his head to look at the two girls on the side.

Although Zhang Huixin said that he had only been back from Jiangnan for a few months, he had seen it from afar a few times when he entered the palace, so he naturally recognized it, but the girl next to him was only a little familiar. Looking up and down, his gaze changed from the pearl emerald on the head, the apricot-red short jacket, the rose-purple crane, to the skirt and the palace jade pendant, and finally landed on the pair of sheepskin boots, and then took it back.

"The two young ladies were frightened."

Chen Lan had seen Yang Jinzhou twice in succession, and when she found that the other party didn't seem to recognize her, she breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately shook her head. However, she didn't want to get too involved, but the frightened Zhang Huixin opened her mouth and asked, "Are you the Brother Yang that Brother Bao said?" If you have brought him out, why have you left him here alone and the others who are with him? ”

"His Royal Highness brought a total of eight eunuchs on this trip, and the guards and so on were all outside the second gate, and they were originally going to prepare for the Lantern Festival at night to see the lanterns. He was playing hide and seek here, and Xia Guan happened to be ordered to bring something to His Royal Highness the King of Jin, so he left for a while, but he didn't expect to encounter someone assassinating him. Yang Jin Zhou replied politely, seeing Chen Lan frowning and pondering, he suddenly remembered that she had just smashed the purple clay pot to block the assassin, and when she fled, she didn't forget to pull King Zhou and Zhang Huixin, and couldn't help but say to her, "Thank you Miss Shicai for pulling Your Highness, if Your Highness doesn't retreat but advances together, it will be bad." ”

Zhang Huixin then remembered that when his legs were weak just now, it was Chen Lan who pulled him away, and then looked down at the blood-stained dagger that fell to the ground, and couldn't help but shiver, and couldn't help but hug Chen Lan sideways, and his heart suddenly became scared. She couldn't say a word when she choked in her throat, but Chen Lan was not afraid, but she could only barely cheer up and comfort her, and finally said to Yang Jinzhou: "Lord Yang doesn't have to be polite, I didn't think much about it at that time, I was just in a hurry." ”

Yang Jinzhou was about to speak, when he suddenly felt that someone was pulling his shirt behind his back, and when he turned his head and saw that it was King Zhou, the originally cold expression on his face softened again. After coaxing King Zhou a few words, he turned around and saw that Chen Lan was gently patting Zhang Huixin's back, saying some comforting words in his mouth, but his face was still a little pale, and he immediately thought of another important question.

"By the way, how did the two young ladies come here? It seems that this place is far away from the Red Snow Pavilion of the Poetry Society. ”

"It's me who is not good." Zhang Huixin let go of Chen Lan at this time, wiped his eyes twice, and then honestly told the two of them about escaping from the poetry club, and finally straightened his chest and said, "If Jinyiwei has anything to ask, just ask me." The sister of the Chen family was hard-pulled by me, and she has nothing to do with her. ”

Sister of the Chen family?

Yang Jinzhou's heart moved, and he couldn't help but glance at Chen Lan again, and then Wen Yan asked, "May I ask if this is the third miss of the Chen family, or the fifth miss?" ”

PS: Plus more sent. Maybe it's going to be on the shelves tomorrow, squeak in advance......
