Chapter 216
"What? Is this true?"

"It turns out that I'm not liked by my elder brother because of my husband-in-law?"

Yao Susu and his wife looked at each other in blank dismay, no one thought that it would be because of this reason.

No wonder An Shicheng didn't understand what he meant when his second uncle persuaded him that giving up his official position would save what Yao Susu had done.

After hearing the words of Prince Lan today, An Shicheng completely understood.

It seems that there are some things that his parents never mentioned to him!

However, his younger brother An Shiping is still serving as the leader of the fourth rank in the palace, responsible for the safety of the palace.

The meaning of what Lan Junwang said is that his uncle knows the situation of their family clearly, so how could he keep his younger brother in such an important position?

An Shicheng was frowning, and when he didn't know why, Prince Lan, who was paying attention to Yao Susu and his wife, suddenly spoke.

"Is Consort An worried about your younger brother?"

As soon as his words came out, An Shicheng and Yao Susu turned their heads to look at Prince Lan at the same time. Their eyes were suspicious, probing, wary, and even vigilant.

"Don't look at me like that."

Sensing the difference in the looks and attitudes of Yao Susu and his wife, Prince Lan gave a wry smile and said frankly.

"Since I've told you so much, I don't care to explain it more clearly."

Seeing Yao Susu and An Shicheng's dubious faces, King Lan whispered something to Yang Shi beside him, and saw Mrs. Lan nodded slightly to Yao Susu and An Shicheng, got up and left the dining table.

"This is Mrs. County King?"

When An Shicheng saw Mrs. Lan get up and leave, he gave Yao Susu a look of mutual understanding. Yao Susu immediately understood, looked at King Lan, and asked a question pretending to be puzzled.

"I asked her to look at the door. After all, what I'm going to say next is still a little cautious. Just in case, it's better to be careful."

"If the wall has ears, if we are heard, I'm afraid we will all be in trouble."

This "we", King Lan directly included Yao Susu's family!

Hearing what King Lan said was so serious, Yao Susu and An Shicheng stopped guessing wildly, and waited seriously for what King Lan would say next.

"Since Her Royal Highness the Princess returned to the capital, all the big and small families in Xingyuan City have more or less checked your details."

"Even seeing Her Royal Highness the Princess and her family living in His Royal Highness's mansion, many family leaders have all kinds of suspicions."

"Until, at the ancestor worship ceremony, those people saw the emperor's attitude towards His Royal Highness the eldest princess. They realized that some things are far from being as simple as they appear on the surface."

Listening to Lan Junwang's narration, Yao Susu and An Shicheng didn't hear anything else at first.When they heard what King Lan said next, the couple was completely terrified.

"Before the ancestor worship ceremony, the emperor secretly met with several ministers in the palace. And these ministers are the ones who supported the emperor to ascend the throne."

"They are also the ones who betrayed King An and surrendered to the emperor."

"It was because of them that King An's army was defeated like a mountain, completely lost power, and became history."

After Lan Junwang finished speaking, he closed his eyes, with a sad expression on his face.

Yao Susu and An Shicheng also had ugly expressions.

If they didn't come to the appointment today, they would not know that Xin Mi five years ago was so twists and turns.

Even the former ministers mentioned in the words of King Lanjun just now.

If they came to contact him under the banner of Prince An, or even his younger brother, or his parents, I'm afraid they would have something to talk about.

But now, An Shicheng thought, since he already knew what happened, the emperor would definitely not take this move again.

It can only be said that An Shicheng's thinking is too simple.

Today's emperor is no longer as innocent and kind as he was when he accompanied the former emperor to conquer the world.

It was only after An Shicheng saw what happened later that he felt so emotional.

Let's talk about now.

"What King Lan Jun means is that my younger brother is serving in the palace, so the emperor wants to take him and become a hindrance to us?"

After trying to understand some things, An Shicheng looked at the Prince Lan who bowed his head and said nothing, and asked in a deep voice.

"Some things don't need to be said so plainly, as long as we all understand."

"Today, I invite you to come here. Apart from talking about these unknown pasts, there is one more thing."

Sure enough, here comes the point.

Hearing that Prince Lan wanted to say something, Yao Susu and An Shicheng looked at each other and began to listen attentively.

After all, people have already expressed their kindness, so the couple can't be ungrateful, right?

"Please speak, Prince Lan."

This time, it was Yao Susu who spoke, after all, her identity was there, while An Shicheng was just a commoner now!
"The old minister prays that in the future, His Royal Highness the eldest princess can protect the lives of the children of the Lan family! As for the reward of the county king, whether it is there or not, the old minister will not expect extravagantly!"

After finishing speaking, King Lan got up from his seat and bowed to Yao Susu.

"useless!"

Seeing Lan Junwang's actions, Yao Susu found it inconvenient to hold Xiaotuanzi in his arms, so he pushed An Shicheng directly, telling him to get up and support Lan Junwang.

"Your Majesty, speaking of it, I have to call you uncle. If you salute like this, it will really ruin our husband and wife!"

With an anxious look on her face, Yao Susu hastily spoke to persuade her.

King Lan, who was helped up by An Shicheng, heard Yao Susu's words, his expression of being depressed for a long time suddenly unfolded, seeing Yao Susu and An Shicheng's expressions of concern for him, he smiled comfortably, and pulled An Shicheng Shi Cheng and Yao Susu sat down again.

"Don't blame me for doing too much, I have no choice! My own children, I know, they don't have a trace of prudence and care like me and their mother."

"If I hadn't restrained them tightly, I'm afraid I would have wiped their asses endlessly. I was just worried that after I had been with their mother for a hundred years, they would do something unforgivable. People can control them!"

Sighing faintly, King Lan looked like an old father who cared about his children.

It's just that his inexplicably sad words made Yao Susu and An Shicheng, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, hang their hearts again.

They felt that what Lan Junwang wanted to say today seemed to have not been said yet.

The words he said before and his behavior just now were just foreshadowing for his next words.

This feeling made both Yao Susu and An Shicheng look at each other and smile wryly, as if they had no choice!
"Thinking about it, His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess and the son-in-law have already thought of it, so I won't keep it up."

After seeing the expressions of Yao Susu and An Shicheng, King Lan believed that he did not choose the wrong person, so he was relieved and prepared to tell Yao Susu and his wife what was in his heart.

"Presumably the two of you can also feel that today's Kyoto is calm on the surface, but it is turbulent and dangerous in the dark, right?"

 Bai Bai's hometown in Henan has recently suffered severe floods.Although Bai Bai had left Henan a few days ago, Bai Bai was extremely worried about the situation at home.

  During this period of time, the update was delayed due to my own affairs, and the update will be slowly resumed until the end.

  Many readers who have always supported Baibai have failed to live up to your support in the past. I hope you will continue to support Baibai in the future, thank you!
