Chapter 226: Jia Ning discovers the secret passage

Fu Xuanlin ascended to the position of crown prince and held the power of the country.

The servants in King Ling's mansion began to pack up their belongings early in the morning of the new year.

In the cold courtyard, everyone was busy, and everyone's faces were itching with joy.

The huge Lingwang Mansion was very lively, and even this day seemed to have become a little warmer.

"Crown Princess, the courtiers who came to congratulate outside are almost full of seats, you should get up quickly, it's not good to keep them waiting for a long time."

Zhu Huan tugged on Zhan Xinglan's arm, struggling to pull her out of the bed.

But Zhan Xinglan was as safe as Mount Tai, except for that arm, his whole body was curled up in the quilt and did not move.

"The Crown Princess."

"Oh, wouldn't it be nice to let the prince go."

The fleshy quilt squirmed a few times reluctantly.

"Crown Princess, you forgot again, now the prince is His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Okay, Your Highness the Prince, Your Highness the Prince......

"Crown Princess, why are you sleeping again, get up quickly, even the old horseman of Ke Xianggong is here! If you don't ...... again."

"What do you say! Ke Jingfeng is here too!?"

Zhan Xinglan kicked the quilt away and sat up suddenly.

Without the protection of the quilt, there was a sudden cool air all over his body.

She shuddered, and wrapped the messy quilt around her body casually.

"When did Ke Jingfeng come?"

Zhu Huan didn't expect Zhan Xinglan to get up so neatly, and he was a little stunned for a while.

"Uh...... About a quarter of an hour ago."

"Quick! Dress me up!"

The front hall of King Ling's Mansion was full of people, but fortunately, this front hall was quite spacious, otherwise it would not be possible to squeeze in.

"The crown princess won't go to the East Palace with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to buy things, right?"

"I just came out of the palace, and I haven't seen the crown princess and His Royal Highness the crown prince walking together."

"The subordinates of this palace are too, they only say that we will wait, but they don't say where the crown princess has gone, it's really unruly."

A man with a stubble face and a rude demeanor said angrily.

The others couldn't help but whisper their complaints.

Seeing this, Ke Jingfeng raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Rong Guogong, be cautious in your words and deeds. Now this is not the former Lingwang Mansion, it is the hidden residence of His Royal Highness the Prince. If someone accidentally grabs the handle, wouldn't it be a trouble for yourself? An Guogong's family is a lesson from the past."

Rong Guogong embarrassedly put away his teeth and claws, but his face was full of unwillingness.

At this time, Zhan Xinglan also finished dressing up and came.

As the crown princess, this makeup and costume are more graceful.

From head to toe, they are all rare treasures rewarded by Emperor Jing, and just standing there, she is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off it.

"The Crown Princess has arrived!"

Everyone hurriedly got up and shouted together: "Wait for the princess to see the princess!"

Zhan Xinglan's face was like a peach blossom with an approachable smile on her cheeks.

"Ministers, hurry up and excuse me."

According to the etiquette system, the crown princess couldn't stand such a big battle.

But because the crown prince is in charge of the country, it is comparable to His Majesty's personal government, and the status of the crown princess is naturally much higher than before.

What's more, in addition to the queen, she is the most noble woman in the world, followed by Zhan Xinglan, the crown princess.

Zhan Xinglan strode forward with the support of Zhu Huan and sat safely on the main seat.

The ministers also took their seats.

"All the ministers came to congratulate today, the palace should have come out earlier to entertain guests, but last night His Royal Highness the crown prince suddenly conferred the title, this palace thought to himself, this morning no matter what, we should worship the gods from all walks of life, in order to keep His Royal Highness the prince safe. I don't want to pray for the blessing for taking too long, but I want to make you wait for a long time, and I apologize deeply."

Zhan Xinglan had to lie in order not to make any extraneous branches.

"The crown princess is serious, today is the first day of the first lunar month

, we should have celebrated the New Year in our respective mansions, but suddenly came to the palace to congratulate us, it was my abrupt and presumptuous."

Ye Rusheng took the lead in saying.

He also remembered Zhan Xinglan's life-saving grace to his wife and daughter, and at this time, he naturally wanted to speak for Zhan Xinglan.

Zhan Xinglan smiled tactfully and cast a look at Ye Rusheng very gratefully.

Seeing that Ye Rusheng was so clever, others couldn't help but regret that they didn't take the lead in speaking, otherwise they would be able to show their faces in front of the crown princess.

"All of you present are my long-cherished ministers, and your ability to come to congratulate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and this palace is a great recognition of His Royal Highness the Prince."

Zhan Xinglan's eyes moved to Ke Jingfeng's body.

"Ke Xianggong, you are the head of the Wenchen, and you are in a high position, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will have to work hard for you to assist the country in the future."

Ke Jingfeng folded his hands and held the shelf, putting on a dignified momentum.

"The crown princess is polite, and the old minister will do his best to assist His Royal Highness the crown prince and live up to His Majesty's expectations."

"With Ke Xianggong's words, this palace will be relieved." Zhan Xinglan raised his chin with a side face and raised his chin happily, "Go and bring the new wine from the palace."

"Yes."

After a while, Zhu Huan and the maids came up with gilded gemstone flower bottles.

The people present are all people who mingle in the court, and most of them like to drink when they are out for entertainment.

But when they smell it, they only know that it is a fine wine, but they cannot smell what kind of wine it is.

"You ministers are in a hurry, this wine was only sent back to Beijing a few days ago, I wonder if the big guys can guess what kind of wine this is?"

Zhan Xinglan glanced at Ke Jingfeng meaningfully.

And Ke Jingfeng's drooping eyelids trembled slightly, and there was obviously a hint of panic.

At this moment, Zhu Huan cautiously stepped forward to add a glass of wine to Zhan Xinglan.

Then he whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Niangniang, Princess Jianing's side has begun to act."

The smile on the corner of Zhan Xinglan's mouth was still there, and she could clearly feel Ke Jingfeng's gaze.

She quietly picked up the wine glass, pretending to have nothing to do, and held the wine glass with her orchid fingers, her lips lightly, and the wine rippled.

"Well, good wine."

The courtiers below have already begun to taste.

"In my opinion, this should be Sanlo wine."

"Nonsense, Sangluo wine is fragrant and sweet in the mouth, which is not at all like this wine. I think it's more like a little red trough, the wine is like fat, and the aroma is rich."

"No, no, although this wine is the same color as a small red trough, the taste is more like Fushui Spring."

Everyone has their own opinions, and no one will let anyone.

Zhan Xinglan covered his lips and coughed, and the noise stopped abruptly.

"Ke Xianggong, everyone has their own opinions on this wine, I wonder if you can recognize this wine?"

Ke Jingfeng has been silent, not that he doesn't recognize this wine, but that he recognizes it but doesn't dare to say it.

He pretended to be calm, and pushed the gold bottle forward with his fingers.

"The old minister has never liked the contents of the pot, and he really can't recognize what kind of wine it is."

"I see, since you can't recognize what kind of wine this is, then the main palace will not play dumb riddles. This wine is drunk by the goddess of the Western Regions, this wine is delicious and mellow, fragrant for thousands of miles, only one pot is extremely precious, and in previous years, Cichangguo only offered two or three pots to Shu Han."

Zhan Xinglan paused, and the courtiers below whispered in admiration, and one by one couldn't help but drink a few more sips of the goddess drunk.

When they heard that this was a tribute wine, their intoxicated eyes were a little more reverent.

Ke Jingfeng listened to the exaggerated exclamations around him, and he still didn't move.

The tip of his nose was filled with the smell of wine, and his mind couldn't help but recall the scene when he met Zhan Xinglan in front of the Xiangfu that day.

And he didn't notice that there was a pair of bright eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts looking at him quietly.

Zhan Xinglan asked softly and gently, "Ke Xianggong, why don't you drink a sip? But I don't think this palace is this wine

Can't get it? It is said that it is rare for a goddess to get drunk with a pot, but fortunately, Princess Jianing brought two pots when she entered Beijing, and the palace had the fate to taste it."

"How dare the old minister, it's just that he has been busy with official business recently, so he shouldn't be greedy for a cup, I'm afraid that he will miss his official business."

"I see, this palace still thinks that Ke Xianggong remembers that Ling Lang hangs over the song two days ago because he drank the goddess drunk, so Ke Xianggong hates this wine in his heart."

Zhan Xinglan was unhurried, and his tone was as relaxed as if he was chattering.

But her eyes were burning, like a fiery arrow shot at Ke Jingfeng.

Instantly, the courtiers were in an uproar.

"Isn't this the Western Regions Tribute Wine, how can Ke Dalangjun be drunk with a goddess?"

"Could it be that Ke Dalangjun ......?"

Ke Jingfeng's face changed suddenly, and a pair of rough thick eyebrows lowered his eyes.

"The crown princess said that she laughed, the dog was just greedy for a few more glasses of peony wine, how could he have drunk any goddess."

"Maybe this palace is mistaken, Ke Xianggong don't be surprised. However, the children of the Ke family seem to know how to drink very well, and in the past, when the palace and Princess Yong were in Shunhua Prison, they saw Princess Yong cooking with wine, which can be described as a unique in the world."

Zhan Xinglan let out a long sigh of relief, full of embarrassment.

"It's a pity, Princess Yong went to a very bitter place like Yongzhou, don't say that the goddess is drunk, even the peony wine is no longer delicious."

Everyone's eyes looked at Ke Jingfeng.

Ke Jingfeng no longer has the arrogance he had when he first came.

His dignity was like being thrown into a hot pan of oil.

His daughter is suffering outside, but his son is still hungover like a nobody. Anyone who listens to it will feel that he, as a father, and as a brother, have no heart.

is also a brother and sister, Ke Shancong doesn't even look like a brother, which is really contemptible.

"This palace drank some wine, and all he said was drunk, Ke Xianggong wouldn't mind."

Zhan Xinglan snorted, and casually pushed Ke Jingfeng and Ke Shancong to the forefront.

Ke Jingfeng's heart was like a tight drum being beaten wildly by a drumstick, one by one, and even the sound of knocking could be heard in his ears.

He wanted to rush up and strangle Zhan Xinglan now, but he still squeezed out a smile, gritted his back molars and said, "The crown princess is as careful as a hair, and she is also meticulous in observing the old minister's children, and the old minister is grateful for her care."

However, at that time, a farce was also staged in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Ke Shancong has long coveted his beauty, and it just so happens that Ke Jingfeng is not in the mansion today, and Zhan Xinglan will not come to the prime minister's mansion.

And Chi Qianniuwei temporarily left the Prime Minister's Mansion for some reason.

It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Outside the Qingxia Hall, Jia Ning twisted her body leisurely, and the steps on her bun shook step by step, so charming.

Suddenly, a figure came out from behind the rockery and blocked in front of Jia Ning.

"Princess Jianing!"

"Ahh

Jia Ning was so frightened that her face was pale, and she retreated again and again.
