Yang Peng and the others turned over and dismounted, Yang Peng smiled: "No need to be polite!" Everyone responded and stood up, still looking respectful, and Li Ruolan's brothers were so excited that they were trembling all over.

Yang Peng smiled: "I'm here to eat today, all understanding is free, just feel free." And they all agreed together. Li Ruolan's father, Li Shicheng, bowed down with a smile on his face and said, "King Yan has arrived, and the cold house is shining!" Respectfully invite King Yan to the table! Yang Peng walked in, and a large group of people gathered next to him and behind him. Everyone walked into the palatial and brightly lit hall, and the guards surrounded the entire hall to protect Yang Peng's absolute safety.

Yang Peng stepped onto the main seat and sat down at the invitation of everyone. Jiang Li and another female guard stood on his left and right with their swords. Yang Peng saw that everyone was still standing, and said with a smile: "Sit down." Everyone thanked them, and then they sat down. Li Shicheng, the head of the family, sat on the left hand, Li Ruolan sat on the right, and the other Li family members sat under the two, the elders of the family sat under Li Shicheng, and the younger generations of the family sat under Li Ruolan.

Yang Peng glanced at everyone and asked, "Why don't there seem to be other guests?" Li Shicheng hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "Back to King Yan, we only invited King Yan alone!" ”

Yang Peng was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "So, I'm flattered!" Li Ruolan's red lips opened lightly, and she said in an extremely sexy voice: "King Yan is the most noble person in the world!" King Yan is willing to descend to the cold house, we are flattered! Everyone in the Li family agreed. Yang Peng smiled and looked at Li Ruolan, only to see that Li Ruolan was looking at herself, her beautiful eyes were full of brilliance, quite moving, and she couldn't help but feel a wave in her heart. It's no wonder that Yang Peng, Li Ruolan, as a character who was scolded by the Xixia people as Daji, is naturally extremely attractive in appearance and temperament! This woman may be slightly inferior in appearance to Yan Ji, Luo Yanran and other eternal beauty, but she has a unique charming temperament, and when a man sees it, his soul is gone!

Yang Peng came back to his senses and smiled, and Li Ruolan returned a charming smile. Yang Peng beckoned to the female guard next to him, and the female guard immediately stepped forward with a long wooden box, Yang Peng pointed to the wooden box and smiled: "This is my gift to Miss Li, I don't know if Miss Li likes it or not?" ”

Everyone in the Li family showed a look of great surprise, everyone didn't expect Yang Peng to prepare a gift for Li Ruolan, they were originally happy to die as long as King Yan could come!

Li Shicheng hurriedly said to Li Ruolan: "Daughter, don't hurry up and thank King Xie Yan for reward!" ”

Li Ruolan stood up, bowed, and said, "Thank you for your love, concubine!" Yang Peng smiled slightly. The female guard walked down and handed the long wooden box to Li Ruolan with both hands. Li Ruolan stretched out her hands and took them respectfully. The female guard returned to Yang Peng's side. Li Ruolan put the wooden box on the table in front of her, knelt down, and opened it carefully, and an antique seven-string guqin appeared in front of her. Li Ruolan showed a look of surprise, and everyone in the Li family stretched their necks to see what kind of gift King Yan gave to Li Ruolan.

Li Ruolan raised her head and said to Yang Peng with infinite joy: "This is the Nine Heavens Ring of the Tang Dynasty, and it is very rare to see it now!" What's even more rare is that this Nine Heavens Ring Pendant, as well as the imprint of the Tang Dynasty, is really a rare treasure that can be encountered but not desired! ”

When everyone in the Li family heard that it was such a precious gift, they couldn't help but be very excited. Yang Peng smiled: "I don't know if you like it or not, but I heard that Miss Li can sing and dance, so I found this guqin as a gift for you!" ”

Li Ruolan stood up with Jiuxiao Huanpei Guqin in her arms, bowed to Yang Peng Yingying, and said, "I like the concubine so much!" Thank you King Yan for the reward! Yang Peng smiled, "It's good if you like it, I'm still worried that this gift is not right!" Li Ruolan looked at Yang Peng affectionately, with infinite tenderness in her beautiful eyes.

Li Shicheng said with a smile: "Daughter, since King Yan has rewarded you with this treasure, you can play a song as a thank you!" ”

Li Ruolan also had this intention, sat back in her seat, put the Jiuxiao Huanpei Guqin on the table in front of her, and threw a charming eye wave at Yang Peng. Then the slender jade fingers pressed the strings, gently plucked them, and a few crisp dingdong sounded, like a spring water sounding softly, and then the gentle and lingering music rippled; At the same time, Li Ruolan lightly opened her red lips, and her soft and sympathetic singing voice sang from Li Ruolan's red lips, the affection was infinitely gentle, even if she couldn't understand the lyrics, she could clearly feel it. Yang Peng couldn't help but be amazed, he only felt that Li Ruolan's singing and piano and Zhao Xiangxiang's dancing could be called both unique, just like the peerless Shuangyan, and the world's double beads, which should not be something that the world can have! At this time, everyone else, even women, has a look of fascination, let alone men. In fact, the people of the Li family, including Li Ruolan's father Li Shicheng, rarely heard Li Ruolan sing, and today is a blessing for King Yan.

At the end of the song, everyone was in a low voice, and it was difficult to extricate themselves for a long time.

Yang Peng came back to his senses first, and couldn't help but applaud: "Okay! So beautiful! What a heavenly fairy sound! Everyone also came back to their senses and praised one after another.

Li Ruolan stood up, bowed to Yingying, and said humbly: "King Yan has won the award!" It's not that the concubine's piano skills are good, it's really this treasure rewarded by King Yan, it's really extraordinary! ”

Yang Peng waved his hand and smiled: "You don't have to be modest!" I don't know how much I've heard of the piano and the singing, but I can't compare to you! In this regard, Miss Li can really be said to be peerless! Then he added a sentence in his stomach: No wonder the emperor of Western Xia was fascinated by you, it was really not covered!

Li Ruolan was very happy to hear Yang Peng's praise, glanced at Yang Peng affectionately, and said, "King Yan has won the award!" The concubine may be more skilled than others, but if she wants to compare with King Yan, she will be inferior by three points! Yang Peng was stunned. Li Ruolan showed a look of admiration, and said intoxicatedly: "Those songs made by King Yan are popular and touching, and the concubine body just wants to live in the last life, and it is impossible to make a song that can be matched!" Under the flow of beautiful eyes, he said with great admiration: "King Yan's literary brilliance, the five-body body admired by the concubine!" If those so-called talents want to be compared with King Yan, it will be like the light of fireflies compared to the bright moon! It's ridiculous that they are still complacent! Everyone in the Li family echoed it, praising Yang Peng's literary brilliance to catch up with Li Bai, and overpowering Du Fu, he is simply the first talent in the past!

Although Yang Peng has always been very thick-skinned, he is still very embarrassed to be praised by everyone like this!

Everyone in the Li family toasted Yang Peng again and again, and after a few rounds, the atmosphere had become quite warm. Li Ruolan's younger brother Li Chenghu took the opportunity to say: "King Yan, our family, this time in order to help King Yan, but we have made a lot of money!" ......" Everyone quieted down, and Li Ruolan shouted: "Little brother, you drank too much!" Why are you talking nonsense in front of King Yan! Don't get out of the way yet! Li Chenghu was very dissatisfied, and said angrily: "Where am I talking nonsense!" Isn't what I'm saying the truth? Li Ruolan was so angry that her face changed drastically, and she was about to have a seizure. Yang Peng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Chenghu is right, this time the Li family has indeed made a huge contribution to Yanyun!" Yan Yun and I will never forget! ”

Li Chenghu was triumphant, but Li Ruolan and Li Shicheng were pale and worried, and scolded Li Chenghu in their hearts for being a rice bucket. Li Ruolan was shocked when she saw that Li Chenghu wanted to say something more, and immediately shouted to her father: "Father, my brother is drunk, take him down quickly!" Li Shicheng knew what his daughter meant, so he hurriedly stood up and ran to Li Chenghu's seat, regardless of Li Chenghu's protests, he dragged him up, dragged him out, and scolded angrily: "You kid actually lost his temper in front of King Yan, hurry up and go back to my room!" Li Chenghu protested loudly, but in the face of his father, he didn't dare to make any radical moves. Everyone in the Li family whispered, some funny, some worried.

Li Ruolan picked up the wine glass and said to Chen Xiao: "The concubine apologizes to King Yan on behalf of the younger brother!" ”

Yang Peng waved his hand and said with a smile: "It doesn't have to be like this, Brother Chenghu didn't do anything wrong!" ”

Li Ruolan saw Yang Peng say this, she still couldn't rest assured, she used to be the favorite concubine of the emperor of Western Xia, and she was used to seeing the emperor's moodiness and inconsistency, the emperor may not be angry now, but in retrospect, he may be angry, maybe he is very kind now, but in fact, his heart is already angry! Although the younger brother can't be wrong, this kind of speech is an offense that the emperor can't allow!

Yang Peng didn't feel strange when he saw that Li Ruolan and many people in the Li family were still worried, not to mention ancient times, modern society is not the same. Yang Peng simply made it clear and said: "You are afraid that I will take Li Chenghu's words as an offense, so you are very worried?" Everyone didn't expect Yang Peng to make his words clear, and they couldn't help but look at each other.

Yang Peng smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this matter!" You have also lived in Bianliang for a while, you should understand who I am, and I will not sanction anyone because he said something! Unless he maliciously spreads rumors! ”

Li Ruolan hurriedly said: "King Yan is an unprecedented saint, naturally open-minded and magnanimous!" Everyone in the Li family agreed.

Yang Peng smiled and waved his hand, and said, "If you really want to say something that can't be said, it's this so-called 'Unprecedented Holy Monarch' and the like!" Everyone was stunned.

Yang Peng glanced at everyone and said, "The Li family has taken out so many resources this time to help Yanyun deal with the refugee problem, and at the same time help Jiangnan recover and rebuild. Of course, you are not doing this out of the public interest. Everyone looked a little embarrassed, especially Li Ruolan.

Yang Peng smiled slightly, and said: "Whether it's public or selfish, I don't care about these, and I won't pursue them, the important thing is that your Li family did come up with real money to help Yan Yun, and this is enough." Yan Yun has always had clear rewards and punishments, you have paid so much for Yan Yun, Yan Yun can't disappoint you if anything! Everyone couldn't help but be moved when they heard Yang Peng say so sincerely, and Li Ruolan even felt that King Yan was really completely different from the kings she had seen before! Although he has reigned over the world and is powerful, he does not have the coquettish attitude of those kings at all, without the slightest hypocrisy, and it can really be said that he is as open-minded as the sea!

Li Ruolan stood up, walked to lie down, knelt down, and said gratefully: "Thank you King Yan for your kindness!" Seeing this, everyone in the Li family hurriedly left their seats and came to the hall, knelt down, and bowed down to thank King Yan for his great kindness.

Yang Peng smiled and said, "Don't be polite, get up!" ”

The crowd thanked and stood up. Yang Peng glanced at everyone, and finally his eyes fell on Li Ruolan's body, and said with a smile: "It should be me who thanks you!" Li Ruolan smiled and said, "We are all subjects of King Yan, and we should do anything for King Yan!" Yang Peng laughed and raised his voice: "We are all for Yan Yun, don't say kind words!" Come on, come on, sit down, keep drinking! Everyone happily agreed and returned to their seats. Immediately, the lights were staggered, laughter and laughter, and the atmosphere was more harmonious and cheerful than just now. Li Shicheng hurriedly returned to the hall, and saw that the worried situation did not appear, but the atmosphere became better, both surprised and pleasantly surprised. Hurriedly joined in.

Jiang Li whispered to Yang Peng: "Master, I want to go to the toilet." ”

Yang Peng nodded.

Jiang Li stood up and walked outside. At this time, Li Shicheng came to toast Chen Xiao, Yang Peng smiled, picked up the wine glass and took a sip. Li Shicheng was so excited that he said a lot of flattering words. At the same time, Li Ruolan got up and left her seat.

Jiang Li came out of the noisy and lively lobby, and was blown by the night breeze, and the whole person was a lot more sober. He asked a maid standing next to him, "Where is the toilet?" The maid was about to answer, but Li Ruolan came up and said with a smile: "I'll take my mother over." Jiang Li smiled and nodded. Li Ruolan led Jiang Li to the back. The two women left the confines of the hall, and the surroundings suddenly became silent, and the noisy hall seemed to be another world.

Jiang Li came out of the toilet and saw Li Ruolan waiting in the corridor not far away, so she walked up. Li Ruolan smiled and said, "Niangniang, it's too noisy over there, let's just take a stroll here." ”

Li Ruolan's words were exactly what Jiang Li wanted, and she nodded.

The two strolled along the corridor, and Li Ruolan smiled: "Niangniang and King Yan are inseparable, it seems that King Yan's favorite concubine is Niangniang!" ”

Jiang Li smiled bitterly, shook her head and said, "You guessed wrong!" ”

Li Ruolan smiled: "Niangniang is too humble! I think King Yan likes Niangniang very much! Other mothers must not have such treatment! ”

Jiang Liwei frowned and said: "Whether it is appearance or talent, whether it is birth or the past with the master, I can't compare with other sisters, how can the master like me the most!" Originally, I was just the commander of the Feifeng Female Guard, and I had nothing extraordinary, and being able to win the love of my master was already a blessing from my previous life, and I really didn't dare to think about anything else! ”

Li Ruolan said: "Niangniang's words are a little contemptuous of herself!" Maybe Niangniang's appearance is not as good as her Niangniang, but this will not affect Niangniang's status in King Yan's mind! The love of the bell is often unreasonable, it doesn't matter what looks and talents, maybe King Yan's favorite thing in his heart is you! ”

Although Jiang Li felt that Li Ruolan was currying favor with herself, she still felt very happy when she heard those words.

Li Ruolan looked at Jiang Li's expression in her eyes, and said with some worry: "Niangniang, it is certainly a happy thing for you to be favored by King Yan, but I am afraid that it will also bring disaster to Niangniang!" ”

Jiang Li showed a puzzled look and frowned: "Where do you start with this?" ”

Li Ruolan showed a look of memory, and said faintly: "Since ancient times, mutual jealousy and mutual affection in the harem have been very intense and cruel! Looking at Jiang Li, "Niangniang can often accompany King Yan, and other Niangniang will inevitably be jealous, and then have dangerous thoughts!" ”

Jiang Li couldn't help but think of Concubine Pang's mother and son, frowned, and a chill couldn't help but rise on her back.

Li Ruolan looked at Jiang Li and continued: "Now that Niangniang is still just one person, even if she encounters a disaster, it is not a big deal. But if you have a child in the future, once you are calculated, the consequences will be unimaginable! ”

Jiang Li's heart sank, her face turned pale, and her brows furrowed tightly.

Li Ruolan struck while the iron was hot: "Niangniang is kind by nature, and she will never harm others!" But as the saying goes, you can't have the heart to hurt people, and you can't have the heart to prevent people! Niangniang must make plans in advance, so as not to let others slaughter when things come! ”

Jiang Li felt that she was very reasonable, and couldn't help but nodded, looked at Li Ruolan, and asked, "What should I do?" ”

Li Ruolan was secretly happy in her heart, and said: "Niangniang first needs to be a sister who can stand on the same front as herself, and at the same time, she also needs to have enough support behind her!" ”

Jiang Lisi pondered: "Although my relationship with my sisters is okay, but if I want to stand on the same front, I'm afraid it won't work!" "Suddenly, my heart moved, I looked up at Li Ruolan, and said secretly: 'Although this Li Ruolan used to be a concubine of Western Xia, she is charming and seductive, and the eldest brother seems to look at her differently, and this time judging from the actions of the Li family, the strength of the Li family should not be underestimated, and in terms of financial resources, I am afraid it will not be worse than the Luo family and the An family. Although the Western Xia has fallen, there are still many officials in the former Western Xia in both the military and political aspects of Yanyun, and Li Ruolan, as the former concubine, must be influential for them. If I can get their support, I will have a strong guarantee in the harem in the future. As soon as she thought of this, Jiang Li had an idea, but it was difficult to say.

Li Ruolan looked at Jiang Li's expression in her eyes and deliberately asked, "Is there anything embarrassing about Niangniang?" ”

Jiang Li made up her mind, looked up at Li Ruolan, and asked with a smile, "You must have something in mind about King Yan, right?" Li Ruolan didn't expect Jiang Li to ask like this, she was taken aback, a few thoughts quickly turned in her mind, she sighed faintly, and said: "Don't dare to hide from Niangniang, for a real man like King Yan, which woman can not be moved!" ”

Jiang Li said: "I can help you make your wish come true!" ”

Li Ruolan looked at Jiang Li and didn't know how to respond to this sentence for a while.

Jiang Li glanced at Li Ruolan and said with a smile: "In terms of appearance and style, you are slightly inferior to Yan Ji and Zhao Jinxi, I think the master will definitely like you!" Li Ruolan said with a crimson face: "Niangniang said it was funny!" Seeing her like this, Jiang Li really had a foxy temperament that made the common people fall for her, and she couldn't help but feel jealous in her heart, and said, "Just tell me straightforwardly, do you want to!" ”

Li Ruolan hesitated for a moment, nodded lightly, and then bowed to Jiang Liyingying: "If Niangniang can fulfill me, the Li family and I will definitely repay me wholeheartedly!" ”

Jiang Li said angrily: "You obviously have a lot in your heart!" I just said that I just wanted my help! ”

Li Ruolan showed an apologetic look and said, "Niangniang, forgive me, I really don't know what Niangniang's mind is, so I had to do that." ”

Jiang Li waved her hand, "Forget about this, from today onwards, we will be sisters!" ”

Li Ruolan hurriedly bowed to Jiang Li and said, "Little sister meets my sister!" ”

Jiang Li couldn't help but be very happy to see her so well-behaved. Jiang Li glanced at Li Ruolan and asked puzzledly: "You are so good-looking, it shouldn't be difficult to win the favor of your master, how can you want to get my help?" Li Ruolan smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it, my little sister has also tried, but she didn't achieve her goal!" The world says that King Yan is lustful, but I don't think that's the case at all! Jiang Li smiled and said, "There are a few men who are not lustful!" Li Ruolan nodded sympathetically, her beautiful eyes showed a look of mockery, and said: "Those guys who are full of morality are the most ridiculous!" usually looks dignified, but when I see a beauty in private, my eyes are green! This kind of person is disgusting! Jiang Li smiled.

Li Ruolan begged: "Sister, the matter of the little sister depends on you!" ”

Jiang Li nodded and thought, "This kind of thing can't be rushed. I'll make arrangements, just wait for my news. Li Ruolan nodded. Jiang Li glanced towards the hall and said with a smile, "We should go back too." Li Ruolan smiled, grabbed Jiang Li's wrist and said, "I'll help my sister!" The two girls went to the other side of the hall.

Yang Peng was drinking and chatting with Li Shicheng, and was only very surprised to see Jiang Li and Li Ruolan walking in hand in an intimate manner.

Li Ruolan returned to her seat and sat down, while Jiang Li returned to Yang Peng's side and sat down. Yang Peng turned his head to look at Jiang Li and said with a smile: "You and that Li Ruolan seem to be very good, don't you?" Jiang Li smiled: "I met outside just now, chatted a few words, and found that I can talk to her!" Yang Peng smiled: "It's good to have a friend who can talk!" Turning her head to look at Li Ruolan, seeing that Li Ruolan was looking this way, she couldn't help but smile at her, Li Ruolan replied with a shy look and lowered her head. Yang Peng couldn't help but feel a flutter in his heart, and subconsciously felt that Li Ruolan seemed to be a little different at this moment?

Yang Peng turned around and said to Jiang Li: "This Li family is actually very good!" I think that at the beginning, the party people said that they were like beasts of a flood, like monsters that brought disaster to the country and the people! In fact, what does Western Xia have to do with Li Ruolan and the Li family? It's simply the emperor's own problem! ”

Jiang Li nodded sympathetically, "Big brother is so right! As the eldest brother said, under the influence of Confucianism, everyone's thinking has been distorted! It's obviously the emperor's problem, but it prefers to be said to be the problem of the concubines, or the problem of some ministers! Like the first emperor of Western Xia, if Li Ruolan and the Li family did not welcome the emperor so much, they would definitely not have a good life! That princess of Western Xia made a straightforward admonition, what was the result? If you want me to say, the so-called traitorous ministers, the so-called demon concubines, are actually just self-preservation! Of course, they are not as respectable and admirable as those who don't want to offend Yan Zhizhi and loyal ministers, but there is nothing to blame! The real damn is actually the one sitting in the highest position! ”

Yang Peng smiled and nodded, "Well said!" These words won my heart! Jiang Li couldn't help but laugh happily when she heard her lover's praise.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
