Chapter 17: Secret

The funeral election will be held three days later. Before this, although the servants who ran back and forth from the palace were in a hurry, there were organized arrangements of Shaofei, and they also had their own positions and were busy. Lan Ruoyan's eyes are calm on the surface, but her heart is beating hard. Shaofei seems to be more suitable for the role of "housekeeper" than her. Her ability is in modern times, and I'm afraid she is at least a general manager. ai——

Biyun, who served beside her, seemed to see her thoughts and said softly, "Madam, it would be good for you to deal with this matter. Don't worry about it."

Shaking his head, Lan Ruoyan picked up the tea and tasted a light bitter taste. After a sip, she had a sweet aftertaste. She smiled and said, "God makes everyone different and has different fates. Naturally, everyone has their own lives... Isn't it good for me to sit and enjoy it like this?"

She is not passive and lazy, but she knows what she wants. If she really wants to love, she can be satisfied as long as she has that person's love. These powers are not what she likes. It doesn't matter if she gives it to Shaofei. She also has confidence in her heart. As long as she is the direct concubine, she is still above Shaofei.

"Mother, I'm afraid it will be unhappy for the general to see him like this." Biyou whispered that with the personality of a general, he didn't want to see his daughter's power divided by others.

"Don't tell your father that it was arranged by the prince. The prince has his own plan to do this, and it must be reasonable for him not to let me intervene. Lan Ruoyan knew that she said so, but with their loyalty to Lan Qifeng, she would definitely say it.

Sure enough, before the next afternoon, the general's mansion sent a letter saying, "The general is not well, please ask the prince and the princess to go back and have a look" and so on. Lan Ruoyan is embarrassing. How could her father come up with such a low-level reason? After looking at it, Xuanyuanchen smiled, and Larry Lan Ruoyan's hand went out to the general's mansion.

When he came to Lan Qifeng's bedroom, he really lay **, wrapped in a quilt, and his face looked very bad. Lan Ruoyan hurried over. Is her father really sick? My brother must have told him about Wen Wei's marriage, and she was unprofitable in her husband's house. Is she worried about his guilt?

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Lan Ruoyan held Lan Qifeng's slightly rough hand because of the cocoon and asked worriedly.

"Ah, it's smoke--" Lan Qifeng slowly opened his eyes and saw Lan Ruoyan with a smile.

"Dad." Lan Qifeng seemed to be much older overnight. Hearing his call, Lan Ruoyan felt that his nose was sore and seemed to cry. Xuanyuanchen came over and patted her on the shoulder and comforted her silently.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." Lan Qifeng's voice was weak, but his eyes were bright.

"What's wrong with your father--" He was sick in bed. Lan Ruoyan thought that the old man would say such a thing when he saw the children worried. Thinking of Lan Qifeng's kindness to him in the past, Lan Ruoyan's eyes turned red again.

"Yan'er, your father is really fine." Xuanyuan Chen leaned over and whispered in her ear.

Suddenly hearing Xuanyuan Chen say this, Lan Ruoyan looked at Lan Qifeng with some suspicion, "How did you know that your father was fine?"

"I'll tell you later that you can stay in the general's mansion these days." Xuanyuan Chen said softly, "I will be in the royal palace later. When the funeral of Concubine Ye is over, I will come to pick you up."

Lan Ruoyan looked at him and Lan Qifeng. They were easy to hide something from themselves. If they don't tell themselves, they will have their plans. Then she didn't explore much and nodded. I guess it was men's business, but she didn't ask.

However, after Xuanyuan Chen left, Lan Ruofeng came to find her.

"Oh, brother, you're here. I just wanted to ask you something, but I didn't expect you to come." Lan Ruoyan asked with a smile when she saw him, wanting to ask how things were going with Wen Wei.

"Come with me first and talk about other things later." Lan Ruofeng said, took her hand and quickly walked to the back door of the general's mansion. Taking her to a simple carriage, Biyun Biyou also followed.

I don't know how far the carriage has detoured. Lan Ruoyan wanted to look outside and determine the route, but Lan Ruofeng was not sure. I'm going to take you to a secret place. Where even King Chen's informers can't find it!"

"So powerful?" Lan Ruoyan didn't believe it. She had learned about King Chen's intelligence system. How could he find a place?

"You will know when you go there." Lan Ruofeng smiled proudly.

The carriage took about two hours to stop. Lan Ruofeng went down first, and Lan Ruoyan also followed. Biyun Biyou had already walked to the front to open the road. Lan Ruoyan saw a man in front of him. Lan Ruoyan looked at Xuanyuan's dark building and somehow thought of it. She looked at Lan Ruofeng in surprise, "Brother, it's difficult here. Is Dao's father training a spy?"

"Hey, sister, you are still so smart." Lan Ruofeng nodded with a smile, took her hand again, and said seriously, "This is also the lifeblood of the Lan family, so you can't tell others easily. Sister, do you understand?"

How could she not understand that the water spilled by her married daughter would be said to be from the Xuanyuan family even if she died. Lan Ruoyan nodded with a wry smile.

"Sister, don't let you know, not because you are your daughter's home, but because you know this thing, but it will make you uneasy. My father said that you are as careful as dust and let you know too much. I'm afraid it will add trouble in the future, so try to let you know less. Sister, don't blame your father and brother. Lan Ruofeng said with some apologies. He loved his sister and didn't need his father to cherish his daughter, so when his father said so, he immediately promised not to tell Lan Ruoyan too much.

Oh, my God, that's what they thought. Lan Ruoyan suddenly felt that she was too narrow-minded. She smiled and nodded, "Brother, you know me. I have my moderation. Don't worry, brother."

"Well, that's good. Let's go in quickly. I guess Wen Wei is already bored in it and is about to go crazy. Lan Ruofeng couldn't help laughing when he thought of his naughty lover.

"Ah, is the senior sister here too?" Lan Ruoyan said in surprise that she was sent here probably because of Lan Qifeng and Xuanyuanchen's protection. After all, she is now at the forefront of the storm. ke wen wen......

"She is your future sister-in-law, and of course she is also a senior protector, hehe--" Lan Ruofeng said with a smile.

"Aha, brother, that is to say, my father agreed?" Lan Ruoyan's eyes lit up.

"Yes." Lan Ruofeng nodded.

seemed to say happy things, and the two of them unconsciously walked faster. They went to Wen Wei's room without taking a few turns. She opened the door and laughed and scolded when she saw their brother and sister, "Lan Ruofeng! At this time, I brought your sister here and knew that I was about to suffocate here.

"Oh! Sister, don't die. I'm still waiting for you to change my red envelope!" Lan Ruoyan walked over with a bad smile and took her hand and said.

"Red envelopes? What kind of red envelope?" Wen Wei looked at her puzzledly.

"Sister, what do you think I should call you if you marry my brother?" Lan Ruoyan winked at Lan Ruofeng.

Wen Yao listened to Lan Ruoyan's words before she understood and said coquettishly with a red face, "What--ah! You little money fan, you even came to blackmail your senior sister!"

Reaching out her hand to knock Lan Ruoyan, she naturally dodged quickly, "Oh, brother, look, my sister is going to bully me!"

"Lan Ruofeng! Come and teach your sister a lesson. She is as oily as a loach. Wen Wei covered her forehead and said that the sister really knew how to make fun of her.

"You two are going to stop making trouble. I have to rush back. Yao, Yaner, Biyun and Biyou are very familiar with this place. They are waiting for you. If you need anything, just tell them." Lan Ruofeng looked at the two of them like this and couldn't laugh or cry.

"Brother, if you have something to do, go quickly." Lan Ruoyan nodded sensiblely.

"Ah, when will you take us back? It's so boring to stay here." Wen Wei asked.

"I will pick you up in five days at most." Lan Ruofeng answered affirmative.

Five days, it's okay. With my sister, I should be able to stay in this damn place. Don't worry about doing your thing. We are here waiting for you to come. Wen Yao nodded as she thought.

Lan Ruofeng felt warm when he heard Wen Wei say that he was waiting for you to come. If he went on an expedition in the future, Wen Wei should have said this to him. His heart was touched, took her hand and said, "Well, Yao, take good care of yourself, Yaner, I will ask you."

"Well, I know, I know, what are you doing suddenly so sensational?" Wen Wei said unbearably that they were not life and death, and they said such sad words.

"Uh-huh. I will definitely pick you up as soon as possible." Lan Ruofeng nodded and left reluctantly.

Lan Ruoyan has been watching the two of them say goodbye, thinking that Xuanyuanchen was separated from her today and said the same thing.

"Saner, wait for me." ...Maybe between lovers, women seem to be waiting, but on the other side, men are struggling for their careers, wandering, and equally careful on women. Why aren't they waiting? Wait for the day when you can reunite with your lover.

At night, Lan Ruoyan sleeps with Wen Wei. They always get together and leave more these days, and there are too many things to say.

"Sister, how are you and the prince?" Wen Wei asked in a low voice.

"Hmm - it's okay." Lan Ruoyan thought of Xuanyuanchen, and her heartbeat suddenly accelerated. She already had that person in her heart.

"Every time you ask you answer like this, it should be good or not. To be honest, if you don't feel it with the prince, when the prince is done, you can think of a way to leave him and get away from Mr. Su--" Wen Wei persuaded her. In her opinion, Lan Ruoyan will be much better with Su Mu in the future, at least Su Mu can only Marry her alone, and the prince becomes the emperor, and there will be three palaces and six courtyards. At that time, there will be three thousand beautiful women, and there will be no foothold for Lan Ruoyan!

It's just that Lan Ruoyan didn't wait for Wen Yao to finish her words and said, "Sister, Brother Su and I are not as good as you think."

Huh? What's wrong?" Wen Wei thought she had a conflict with Su Mu and hurriedly asked.

"Sister, in fact--" Lan Ruoyan hesitated. Should she tell Wen Wei what she really thinks?

Wen Wei looked at Lan Ruoyan doubtfully. She was also a person with seven exquisite hearts. Thinking about it, she understood and asked in surprise, "Do you like Mr. Su but like it - the prince?"

"I don't think I like him, but I fall in love with him." Lan Ruoyan calmed down and her tone calmed down.

"Oh, my God, sister, you, you..." Wen Wei's 'you' for a long time before saying the next sentence, "You have to figure it out that if the prince becomes emperor in the future, he will have three palaces and six courtyards! How can he be as dedicated to you as Mr. Su?

"Sister, since you have fallen in love, it is difficult to change. If he is like that in the future, I can only choose to leave--" Lan Ruoyan whispered, and she reached out to hold Wen Wei's hand. "Just like the senior sister's love for her brother will not change, so will I have my feelings for the prince. If I can't be together, I won't regret loving him..."

"Sister..." Wen Wei also loves Lan Ruofeng deeply. Of course, she knows that mood. It's just that it's too unfair to my sister. A sister should be a happy person, but the emperor can't have only one wife...

The two of them didn't talk anymore, because they thought differently and could no longer intersect. This night, Wen Wei struggled for a long time before falling asleep. She doesn't want her sister to be with the prince. The women in the harem are unhappy. Sister shouldn't be that kind of fate, no! She must change her mind.

Before dawn the next day, Wen Wei got up and touched her desk to write. She knew that Lan Ruoyan would not get up if no one shouted. She would take this opportunity to inform Su Mu.

"Son Su, if there is an emergency, please come as soon as possible." After writing, she finished the envelope and went out to ask someone to send the letter to Lan Ruofeng to convey it to Su Mu.

When he received the letter, Lan Ruofeng was discussing "orious matters" with Lan Qifeng, Xuanyuanchen and Su Mu. As soon as I heard that Wen Yao sent a letter, I immediately looked at everyone with a sorry face and went to receive the letter happily. People said that a little farewell was better than a new marriage, and suddenly I didn't see the girl wandering in front of my eyes. I was really not used to it.

Xuanyuanchen and Su Mu received his letter with varying degrees of envy, but they did not show it. I'm just thinking about when Lan Ruoyan will write a letter to them.

However, not long after, Lan Ruofeng came in with a black face. Su Mu asked curiously, "Xiaofeng, what's wrong with you?"

"Huh, it's not because--" you! Lan Ruofeng took out the letter and handed it to Su Mu, "Here, it's for you."

"Hmm?" Su Mu received the letter, and the envelope was written "Lan Ruofeng's personal enlightenment". He pulled out the letter, but it was pointed out that it was called "Sao Su". He is also a little strange, "This is..."

"I'll call you over!" Lan Ruofeng's words were almost squeezed out of her teeth. What did this girl want to do? She wrote him a letter, but it was called another man?!

Xuanyuanchen read the content of the letter and suspected that Lan Ruoyan called Su Mu through Wen Wei. But on second thought, Lan Ruoyan had already figured out her feelings for herself and should not be broken with Su Mu. Don't worry, don't think too much about it.

Su Mu also thought about Wen Yao and Lan Ruoyan. Maybe Lan Ruoyan was looking for him again. Even if it wasn't, she could stop by to see how Lan Ruoyan was doing. She hadn't seen her since that day, and she was somewhat worried.

When he was idle at night, Su Mu was taken by Lan Ruofeng to find Wen Yao. Seeing Su Mu coming, Wen Wei, who had been guarding the door, quickly ran over and ignored Lan Ruofeng. Mr. Su, why did you come here!"

"The government affairs are busy during the day, so I came late. Please forgive Wen Wei." Su Mu politely apologized.

"Don't say that, come with me." Wen Wei picked up Su Mu and walked in a remote direction.

After a few steps, he was stopped by Lan Ruofeng's gloomy face, "Where are you going to take Mu?"

"I have something important to say to Mr. Su. Don't stop me." Wen Wei said impatiently that this is related to the lifelong happiness of her sister. She saw that Lan Ruofeng's face was really bad and was afraid that he would misunderstand, so she said, "Let's talk about it for a moment. Don't be nervous. Wait here."

"..." Before Lan Ruofeng could speak, Wen Wei pulled Su Mu to disappear. He was really speechless. When he saw Lan Ruoyan coming by, he went up and complained, "Sister, what do you think is abnormal about your senior sister? It turned out that Su Mu came to deliver the letter!"

"What?! Did the world call Brother Su come here?!" Lan Ruoyan exclaimed that Wen Wei didn't want to tell Su Mu what she said last night. No, she wants to stop her!" Brother, where are they going?

"Ouch, it's over there." Lan Ruofeng pointed to the side yard, and Lan Ruoyan ran over quickly like a gust of wind. She inadvertently performed light skills. The wind almost made Lan Ruofeng's body unbalanced.

"Why do they all go to Su Mu!!!" Lan Ruofeng roared depressedly, put his hands on his waist, looked in that direction, and hesitated whether to go there. He thought that Lan Ruoyan ran away like that. Why couldn't he go? Anyway, he didn't say that he would not let him follow. So he also ran there quickly.

It's just that when he arrived, the highlight was over. Su Mu, Lan Ruoyan and Wen Yao all looked solemn. Finally, Su Mu said to Lan Ruoyan, "I came to pick you up that day, and you will know when you go with me."

After hesitating, Lan Ruoyan nodded, "Okay."

"Hey, what are you doing?" Lan Ruofeng, who couldn't see the clue, was puzzled.

"Xiaofeng, let's go back." Su Mu walked to Lan Ruofeng and said, "It's too late. It's time for Wen Yao and Yaner to rest. We should go back early to prepare."

"Uh--" Su Mu put aside the topic. Lan Ruofeng knew that if he didn't want to say it, he couldn't ask, and Wen Yao and Lan Ruoyan were also difficult masters, let alone ask. So he could only give up frustratedly and left with Su Mu.

Back in the room, Lan Ruoyan stared at Wen Wei with a pair of eyes. The latter was fury and said tremblingly, "Sister, I'm also for your own good... What's more, Mr. Su said that unless you told him that you love the prince and not him, he will not give up. Sister-"

"Senior sister!" Lan Ruoyan gave Wen Wei a sharp look, and the latter hurriedly silenced and listened to her...
