Chapter 540: Chu Lan confesses

Yes, yes.

Now that the entire court situation is under his control, why is it difficult to marry someone?

It's just that...... After all, that's just if, and there is no early knowledge in this world.

Chu Lan looked at the bride in front of him, and the scene of himself unveiling the red hijab came to mind, and under the red hijab was Wei Qingruo's face.

She smiled at herself, and her smile coincided with Xu Heyou's face when she was talking and laughing with herself.

Those eyes were still bright and shining, as if they could speak.

On the red bed, Zuo Lingyue couldn't see anyone with a red hijab, only the sound of footsteps.

She waited anxiously for King Jing to come and remove her hijab.

I waited for a long time, but not only did I not hear the approaching red hijab.

Instead, the voice grew farther and farther away, and then she heard the door open again.

Chu Lan left the room.

When he went out, he told the man guarding the door that he had important business to attend to and would stay in the study tonight.

###

At night, Wei Ruozheng was returning to Rui Wangfu from the East City Gate.

The weather was very cold in the past two days, and with the consent of the imperial court, she paid for people to set up a camp outside the city gate.

In order to be in a hurry, she has been busy late these days.

And because the carriage is not very convenient to go to the place where he is going these days, Wei Ruo is riding a horse.

It was cold at night, Wei Ruo was wearing a big hat, the collar was a circle of white fox fur, and she was wearing a fur hat sewn by her nurse on her head, and the whole person was fluffy.

Wei Jin also dressed up as Wang Jin to accompany her as usual, in addition to Xiumei and Lin Fang.

"Princess Rui has worked hard."

When he entered through the city gate, the guards at the gate greeted Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo smiled and nodded.

Not long after entering the city gate, a group of people suddenly came out and surrounded the four of them.

Then a man came out of the darkness.

A black brocade robe embroidered with gold fish pattern, covered with a thick cloak, the inner layer of the cloak is black, and the outer layer is embroidered with the same gold pattern on the navy blue background.

When he saw the other party's face clearly, Wei Ruo showed a puzzled look.

Chu Lan? How did he end up here?

Tonight is his big wedding night, what is he doing here with candles in the cave room?

At this time, it was past curfew time, and there was no one else on the road except for the occasional patrol officers of the Terracotta Division, and the Terracotta Division was all Chu Lan's people.

"Would I like to have a cup of tea?" Chu Lan asked Wei Ruo.

"Lord Jing, are you drunk? I am Princess Rui, your brother and sister. Do you want to have tea with me in the middle of the night? Doesn't make sense by any means, does it? Not to mention that tonight is your wedding night, and you should go back to accompany your princess. Wei Ruo said with a cold face.

"Or do you want me to let them do it?" Chu Lan said.

Chu Lan brought dozens of people, while Wei Ruo only brought three people.

If you really want to make a move, Wei Ruo's side has no advantage.

"Lord Jing, do you know what you're doing?" Wei Ruo asked.

Before he ascended the throne, he dared to be so presumptuous?

Is he crazy?

"You're going to think I'm drunk." Chu Lan said, "I just want to invite you to a cup of tea, I promise you that as long as you obey me, I won't hurt you, and naturally no one else will know what happened tonight." ”

Wei Ruo glanced at Wei Jinyi, who had already put his hand on the hilt of the sword, and she felt his killing intent.

She didn't know how high the second brother's martial arts were, and what would happen to deal with these dozens of soldiers and horses masters with the strength of one person, but she didn't want the second brother to act rashly.

"Okay, I'll have this cup of tea with you, but I'll only accept to go to the pavilion next to me." Wei Ruodao.

"Okay." Chu Lan agreed.

Then Wei Ruo whispered to Wei Jin beside him: "Let's take a look at what medicine he sells in his gourd first." ”

Wei Jin also frowned and did not answer.

Wei Ruo felt that it seemed that her second brother wanted to do it more, but because it was her request, she chose to forbear for the time being.

When he arrived at the pavilion, Wei Ruo got off his horse.

Chu Lan walked into the pavilion first and waited for her.

The winter nights are very cold, and the stone tables and benches in the pavilion are like ice sculptures.

Chu Lan's people stepped forward and spread a blanket on the stool.

Wei Ruo took a look at it and sat down on it.

After Chu Lan sat on the opposite side, his subordinates got the stove and tea set from nowhere.

Then a few lanterns were hung around the pavilion to illuminate the pavilion.

"Lord Jing, don't toss this, if you have anything to say, just say it directly." Wei Ruodao.

Chu Lan was unhurried, and said while making tea: "This is winter melon tea, you can taste it." ”

Chu Lan put a cup of brewed winter melon tea in front of Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo didn't look at the winter melon tea in front of him, let alone reach out to take it.

Wei Ruo said coldly: "Lord Jing, what do you want to say to me?" ”

Chu Lan didn't respond immediately, but picked up his cup, raised his head and drank it.

After drinking it, he said to Wei Ruo: "Don't worry, since you said that you want to drink this cup of tea with me, you can drink it later." ”

Wei Ruo's willingness to sit down and talk about the overall situation is already taking into account the overall situation, where is he still in the mood to drink tea.

"Lord Jing, you are sensible, with the identity of you and me, don't say that you are sitting here like this, it is best to avoid it when you see it!"

"You don't need to remind me of that anymore, I know very well, I just want to confirm something." Chu Lan said.

"Confirm what? Do you still doubt that I am Dr. Xu? Wei Ruo asked.

"Strange to say, although I didn't find any clear evidence, but in my heart, you and Xu Heyou are the same person, especially seeing what you have done in the capital in recent days, I have confirmed this more and more." Chu Lan said.

"Lord Jing, there are some things that can't just be based on feelings, but also on facts."

"I used to be like that, but this time, for some reason, I wanted to follow my heart."

"But what does this mean to you, Lord Jing? What if you confirm that Dr. Xu and I are the same person? As far as I know, neither I nor Dr. Xu have ever done anything to be sorry for you, Lord Jing, right? Wei Ruo said.

"That's right, none of you have done anything to be sorry for me, and not only that, but you are even kind to me."

"And why are you like this?" Wei Ruo asked.

"Why?" Chu Lan repeated, "I don't know why, but I know that I need to find the answer in you." ”

Saying that, Chu Lan raised his eyes and looked at Wei Ruo.

Feeling the burning gaze, Wei Ruo also raised his head, and then was surprised to find that Chu Lan's eyes were full of gloom and sadness.

Chu Lan stared at Wei Ruo and continued: "Wei Qingruo, you tell this king, if it was this king who asked the emperor to marry you, what would you do? ”

"Lord Jing, you're drunk!" Wei Ruodao.

"Wei Qingruo, this king has indeed drunk too much, so he still misses you on the wedding night, and even hopes that you are the one who wants to be my princess."
