Chapter 20: What's worth the loss
Your Majesty... It's just that she is here. Can't you ever see others? Thinking of the importance that Xuanyuanchen attached to her when there was no Lan Ruoyan in the past, she bit her lip and looked at Lan Xinge full of murder. You can no longer rob the prince with me in the future!
Since Lan Ruoyan has received the warm jade jewelry, she will definitely wear it. If she doesn't wear it, Shaofei will also remind her that as long as Lan Ruoyan wears this warm jade hairpin once, it can make her disappear!
Xuanyuanchen entered Lanxin Pavilion and saw Lan Ruoyan looking at the warm jade. He couldn't help asking strangely, "Sang Er, where did this thing come from?"
Huh? When did you come in again?" Lan Ruoyan looked up. She just took a closer look at whether there were any flaws on the warm jade, thinking that Shaofei had nothing to give such a good gift, and there was always a feeling of rape or robbery.
"Xia Linzi also announced that 'the prince has arrived', but you didn't hear it, so you can't blame me." Xuanyuanchen rolled his eyes. Lan Ruoyan ignored his existence more and more, but he was also quite curious about the warm jade in the box. He looked down at the jade and thought it was good, so he picked up one and said, "Come on, I'll put it on for you." He couldn't think of his action, which could almost kill Lan Ruoyan!
People in the capital have been panicked recently. The regent issued an edict to the world, and the emperor died!
Although he knew that the emperor had been ill for a long time and would live for a long time, the people were still panicked when the sun and the moon were about to be replaced. Although the emperor died, the whereabouts of the prince are unknown and his life and death are uncertain, but the heart of King Chen is well known to passers-by. The footsteps of pedestrians on the road seem to be much heavier, and the whole capital seems to be covered with a haze.
Lan Ruoyan, who went to the general's mansion in the carriage, also seemed to notice something strange. She lifted the curtain and looked outside. The passers-by's faces were a little solemn. With a sigh, she sat back in place and said no more words. Biyou saw her like this and asked softly, "Does the Empress feel uncomfortable?"
"Nothing." Lan Ruoyan shook his head and saw that even passers-by in the capital were like this. What should the court look like? I don't know if Xuanyuan Chen can succeed. Alas! Since I understood my mind, I have become more and more concerned about that person.
"The Empress should be happy. The prince will have a great event. Just wait for him to ascend the throne, then you will definitely be honored as the mother of a country." Biyun picked out the good words. She knew that Lan Ruoyan was worried about Xuanyuanchen, and she said this just to relathe Lan Ruoyan.
Does the "queen--" become the queen mean that she is the lord of the harem? Thinking of Xuanyuanchen's promise that she will be the only one in the harem, Lan Ruoyan thinks that she is both sweet and distressed. What should Shaofei and her child do?
"Mother, Major General Lan and Wen Yao have agreed to marry. You should also be happy." Biyou said in one sentence the purpose of Lan Ruoyan's trip to the general's mansion. It turned out that after Lan Ruofeng and Lan Qifeng showed that he was determined to marry Wen Wei, Lan Qifeng not only was not angry but happily agreed. It's unexpected that things went so well.
In ancient marriage custom, it is necessary to get married before getting married. Lan Ruoyan goes here to participate in the engagement banquet of Lan Ruofeng and Wen Wei. The engagement is different from marriage. You only need to invite the main relatives of the family to participate, and only friends are invited to make friends. Lan Ruoyan, as Lan Ruofeng's only sister, was naturally invited. Xuanyuanchen also wanted to come together, but it seemed that something happened in the palace, so he went to the palace, saying that he would try his best to come back at the beginning of the banquet.
"Yes, today is my brother's happy day. I should be happier." With that, she arrived at the general's mansion. Biyun Biyou got out of the carriage first and then helped her down. Lan Ruoyan didn't need to help her, but she was no longer naive when she first came to Xia Qi. At this time, she still had to take care of the decentness of the princess.
Lan Ruofeng may have received the news that she had arrived a long time ago. When he saw her get out of the carriage, he greeted her. Sister."
"Brother is really happy, and he smiles like a flower." Lan Ruoyan smiled and couldn't help teasing Lan Ruofeng, as if this good brother was for fun.
"Well, your brother is in a good mood today and doesn't care about you. The prince should arrive later. Go first and accompany your sister-in-law. I guess she will be bored to death. Lan Ruofeng was not surprised at all. He led Lan Ruoyan in and sent her to Wen Wei's door.
"Senior sister is free and easy by nature and can't stand this bondage." Lan Ruoyan smiled and looked at Lan Ruofeng, "But when she marries her brother, I guess she will be careful."
"Sister!" Inside, Wen Wei seemed to hear Lan Ruoyan's voice and opened the door excitedly, but as soon as she saw Lan Ruofeng rushing to close the door, she roared, "What are you doing here!"
"Is this?" Lan Ruoyan is a little puzzled.
"Xia Qi's marriage has old customs. Men and women are not allowed to meet before salute in front of their elders, otherwise it will cause bad luck." Lan Ruofeng smiled and shouted in, "I sent my sister here. Who made you rush to open the door!"
"Now that the junior sister has delivered it, why don't you go away!" Wen Wei shouted through the door.
"I know, I know, I haven't seen what you look like." Lan Ruofeng said indifferently, but he had never seen Wen Yao's dress. He just glanced at it and was a little dull.
"You're leaving!" Wen Wei's voice was a little impatient. She really wanted to see Lan Ruofeng. They hadn't seen each other since the day before yesterday. Three days before the bere marriage, neither man nor woman could meet. It was really unpleasant. But she was afraid of any bad luck, so she had to "go" him in case she couldn't help peeking.
I could hear the anxiety of the voice inside. The Lan brothers and sisters looked at each other and smiled, or Lan Ruoyan also helped Wen Yao and said, "Okay, brother, go quickly. I'm busy outside now."
"Okay, okay, drive me away--" Lan Ruofeng pretended to be very aggrieved, making Lan Ruoyan want to laugh. He left and didn't forget to turn around and shout inside, "Inside, I'm leaving. Open the door and let the smoke in."
"I know!" Wen Wei answered angrily.
Lan Ruoyan only felt warm when she saw the two of them like this. They finally got married. My father has been looking forward to my brother getting married as soon as possible. After the marriage is settled, my father should feel much more at ease. Thinking of this, Lan Ruoyan suddenly remembered something. His father knew that his brother liked Wen Wei, but he kept saying that he wanted him to marry another woman... Is it possible that his father used a plan to get his brother to marry his senior sister as soon as possible?!
Ha, thinking of this, Lan Ruoyan couldn't help looking at the direction of Lan Ruofeng's departure with some sympathy. The poor brother still couldn't prevent Jiang from being old and spicy.
I guessing that Lan Ruofeng should have gone far away, Wen Wei opened the door. At this time, Lan Ruoyan looked at her carefully and couldn't help but feel amazing. People say that Yiren's red makeup is the most beautiful, which seems to be true. Wen Wei walks around the world and always faces the sky. Although she is refreshing and elegant, she inevitably lacks the softness of some women. Today, she put on makeup and her face is really gorgeous. Lan Ruoyan looked at it and just wanted to see Lan Ruofeng later, whether he would be unable to control it at night...
"Sister, don't always stare at others with such colored eyes~" Wen Yao said an anger. By the way, she looked in the mirror after putting on makeup today, and she was really surprised for a long time. I didn't expect her to be so charming.
"Oh, I'm about to be a woman, but I'm going to learn to be shy." Lan Ruoyan made fun of her.
"You two brothers and sisters are really bad. You both cancel me with this." Wen Wei curled her lips and pretended to be unhappy.
"Okay, okay, don't laugh at you. Go ahead and talk first." Lan Ruoyan smiled and took Wen Wei's hand and went in. She crossed the threshold. Suddenly, she felt another pair of eyes behind her were looking at her. When she looked back, there was nothing unusual. It was strange in her heart. Who would it be?
"Sister, what are you looking at?" Wen Wei saw that Lan Ruoyan had been looking behind her, so she asked curiously.
"Nothing." Lan Ruoyan shook his head. Today is a happy day for his brother and sister. Don't let them worry. So Xiaoxiao said something else to distract Wen Yao's attention.
Her feeling is actually right. Someone was indeed looking at her just now. It was a person who wanted her to die - a poisonous gentleman. He didn't get rid of this thought because he had seen the handwriting of the bright moon fairy. After reading the handwriting of the bright moon fairy, he only felt that he had lost too completely and was almost unbearable. His beloved woman had no idea that he had loved her.
He had a backlog of pain in his heart, causing him to only want to kill the woman who is closest to Mingyue - Lan Ruoyan. He wants to erase everything that can remind him of the existence of Mingyue Fairy. Crazy, probably nothing more than that.
The warm jade hairpin given by Shaofei to Lan Ruoyan was stained with insoluble poison - Meiqingsi. As long as Lan Ruoyan wears the hairpin, the poison will penetrate into her body along her hair, and the venom will penetrate into her internal organs, which will take at least three days. Therefore, even if she dies of poison, no one will suspect that the poison will stimulate her heart, and the death is no different from the sudden outbreak of heart disease.
The poisonous gentleman sneaked into the general's mansion. When he saw Lan Ruo's cigarette head wearing the warm jade hairpin, he knew that she was not far from her death, so he didn't stay any longer. However, when he returned the original way to leave, suddenly a blue figure stood in front of him, looked at it warily, and smiled indifferently, "Lord Su, don't It's all right."
"The senior is also sound. I don't know why you followed Yaner all the way here?" Su Mu's face was frosty and asked the poisonous gentleman directly.
"Let's see how far the princess is from her death." The poisonous gentleman sneered.
"What are you talking about?" Su Mu looked at the poisonous gentleman in astonishment. Has he already done it?!
"Lord Su, do you know why I learned to control drugs at the beginning?" The poisonous gentleman narrowed his eyes and smiled, but he was not interested in guessing Su Mu's anxious appearance at this moment, so he said, "Because poison can kill people invisibly, which makes people unable to prevent it. Just like now, whether you are, the prince, the senior brother, or Lan Ruoyan's father and brother, no matter how you protect her, she will still die in my hands!"
Bang! The folding fan unfolded, and Su Mu got up and jumped to attack the poisonous gentleman, who was suddenly suppressed to the ground.
"Where is the antidote?" Su Mu's blade of the folding fan was against the neck of the poisonous gentleman.
"Kill me, the poison is insoluble." The poisonous gentleman smiled ferociously, "I never do anything that I regret!"
"You!" Su Mu really can't wait to kill him now, but his reason makes him unable to do this. Lan Ruoyan is poisoned and must first find an antidote for Lan Ruoyan, and only the poison gentleman may know the ingredients. Even if he doesn't give the antidote, he can find someone to help make it.
After ordering the poisonous gentleman's acupuncture point, Su Mu got up and looked down at him coldly, "Now if you don't say it, I will always have a way for you to say it!"
"Song Su." A familiar shout came from the distance. Su Mu turned around and saw that it was an old naughty boy.
"Souzi, you--ah! Brother!" The old naughty boy heard the noise coming over there, but saw the poisonous gentleman fall to the ground, and Su Mu stood aside.
"Senior Mo, you are here just in time. I'm going to see you." Su Mu saw the old naughty boy looking at the poisonous gentleman and said without waiting for him to ask him.
"What did Mr. Su want from me?" The old naughty boy asked, he knew Su Mu's character and knew that Su Mu would not restrain the poisonous gentleman for no reason. Could something have happened?
The ausp hour arrived in the blink of an eye. Lan Ruoyan pulled Wen Wei out of the boudoir and arrived at the main hall. Only then saw that Xuanyuan Chen had arrived. Wen Ran smiled, and Lan Ruoyan handed Wen Wei's hand into Lan Ruofeng's hand and walked towards Xuanyuan Chen.
After Xuanyuanchen led Lan Ruoyan to her seat, he whispered in her ear, "I almost couldn't catch up. But fortunately, I arrived in time."
"If you want to deal with national affairs, it doesn't matter if it's late." Lan Ruoyan didn't care. Lan Qifeng and Lan Ruofeng naturally knew that state affairs were more important than family affairs.
"It's getting sweeter and sweeter." Xuanyuanchen smiled gently and shook Lan Ruoyan's hand under the table.
The small movements between the two people are quiet, but the continuous feelings conveyed by the two when they look at each other are envied by the sight. In the distance, Su Mu was tasteless when she saw this scene. The poisonous gentleman, who was sealed by the old urchin, saw Su Mu's face slightly gloomy and said with a sneer, "I thought Lord Su had a chance to hold a beauty, but I didn't expect it to be just wishful thinking."
"Brother, even if Mr. Su didn't get the cigarette, his affection for the cigarette is still true. Compared with you, he is the one who really understands love!" The old naughty boy said in a low voice.
The old urchin's words made Su Mu suddenly enlightened. Yes, as long as Yaner knew that she loved him, as long as Yaner could live safely, everything would be fine. He is not a selfless person, but he knows that if the smoke suffers, he will be several times more painful!
"Hey! Master, why are you sitting here?" Wen Wei didn't see the old urchin on the chairman, so she looked around, and Lan Ruofeng came with him.
"Yes, master, you are Wen Wei's master, just like Wen Wei's father. You should be the chairman." Lan Ruofeng said that he would invite the old urchin to the chairman.
However, the old naughty boy did not like to deal with people in the officialdom, and Lan Qifeng, as a general, most of his relatives and friends were from the court, which made him always look a little uncomfortable. In fact, he was still a little worried about Wen Wei's marriage to Lan Ruofeng. With the example of Murong Qingqing, he had to worry, but he saw the two of them. I'm already deeply in love, and I'm afraid it can't be broken up.
It's just that Lan Ruofeng's determination to marry Wen Wei made him more or less praise this young man, so he also liked Lan Ruofeng. "It's fine with Mr. Su and I here. The little old man doesn't care about this."
"Master! Why are you doing this? Don't you make others feel that there is no one in my mother's family? Wen Wei is unhappy. She is an orphan, which is the problem of **. Now the old naughty child refuses to be her own elder, and she only feels helpless.
Su Mu was careful and could see Wen Wei's little woman's mentality, so she persuaded the old naughty child, "Elder Mo, today is the happy day for Miss Wen Yao. You'd better go to the chairman. I'll just watch it here."
"Okay." Despite his inner care, the old naughty boy still went to the chairman for the sake of Wen Wei and rushed to become the woman's family.
Because of the presence of Lan Qifeng and Xuanyuanchen, the ministers in the court did not dare to talk more about the bride's house. Although Lan Ruoyan was happy to see Lan Ruofeng and Wen Wei's marriage final, she was not happy to see that the relatives and friends of the Lan family still had some secret comments and contempt from the courtiers.
She looked at Xuanyuan Chen and whispered, "Your Majesty, I have something to ask for."
Huh? What's the matter?" This is the second time that Lan Ruoyan asked him. Xuanyuanchen was a little strange. On this happy day, Lan Ruoyan thought of something to ask him.
Lan Ruoyan looked at Wen Yao with some point, and looked at Xuanyuan Chen in embarrassment and whispered, "Although my sister and brother are deeply affectionate, they are thinner after all..."
Xuanyuanchen suddenly realized that Lan Ruoyan was worried about Wen Wei. He reached out and shook her hand and said softly, "I will do this for you." With that, he got up and walked towards Lan Qifeng.
Seeing Xuanyuanchen whispering to Lan Qifeng, Lan Qifeng immediately only smiled and nodded. Lan Ruoyan was wondering what they were discussing, but she saw the master of ceremonies walk out and loudly declaring that everyone was quiet. Today, we sincerely invite you to come here. Not only is General Lan Da's daughter-in-law, but there is also a great thing for everyone to witness!"
As soon as they heard that there was still a big deal, everyone immediately pricked up their ears and listened. After the master of ceremonies satisfied everyone's appetite, he continued to say, "That's what His Royal Highness the Regent and the bride are willing to accept the bride as a sister-in-law at first sight!"
The regent receives his sister-in-law! This is even more shocking than Lan Qifeng's marriage to his daughter-in-law. People can see that Xuanyuan Chen is most likely to ascend the throne. If he takes the bride as his sister-in-law, Wen Wei will be the princess before he ascends the throne. Once he ascends the throne, Wen Wei will be the princess! Then Lan Ruofeng is the emperor's brother-in-law! This moment's change made Wen Wei's humble orphan girl become a relative of the emperor's country. How can it not be shocking?
Lan Qifeng's daughter is now the princess of the regent, and his son married Xuanyuan Chen's adoptive sister. This is undoubtedly a marriage. The courtiers met the wind the most. At this moment when they were still despised the last second, they immediately clapped their hands and praised them, "Congratulations the regent for getting a righteous sister" Yun Yunyun. Lan Ruoyan sighed when she saw this, such a place Is it suitable for Wen Wei?
Wen Wei has no plan. She hasn't figured out why Xuanyuanchen suddenly wanted to accept herself as her sister-in-law. Lan Ruofeng has only pushed her and said, "Go to His Royal Highness Xie Chen."
Ah? Why?" Wen Wei was puzzled, "It's just that he wants to admit it, but I haven't agreed yet--"
