General

The imperial city in late autumn brings an indescribable Xiaosha, the golden glazed tiles reflect the cold morning light, the cold wind blows over the white marble stone steps, and keeps rolling up the golden silk-trimmed brocade hem of the people. Fly wildly.

The civil and military officials are neatly arranged on both sides according to their positions, and they enter the main hall one by one with solemn expressions. In the main hall, under the majestic and gorgeous plaque, the huge golden dragon chair is carved with the totem of Kowloon, which is lifelike and dazzling, quietly placed On the five-level jade steps covered with long scarlet carpets.

Two teams of imperial guards walked into the gate of the palace in neat steps, lined up on both sides of the main hall, all wearing silver armor and long swords on their waists.

An eunuch with a whisk in his hand bowed and supported Lan Xuan, who was wearing a bright yellow robe, and walked slowly from the inner hall.Sitting in the middle of the gorgeous dragon chair with a delicate body, her phoenix eyes were slightly raised, and she glanced lightly at the people sitting down.Seeing that Lan Jing was standing upright and looking back at her quietly, she nodded slightly, with a faint smile on her brows.

But at the next moment, when his gaze inadvertently fell on Lan Zheng who was standing with his hands behind his back not far away, he suddenly froze slightly, and moved away as if fleeing.

Li Xuan frowned, even though he hadn't returned to the court for a long time, now he looked at this scene with cold eyes, and he felt a little bit caressing in his heart.

Lanxuan and Lanjing are also born beautiful, and they are proficient in poetry, poetry, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. If he is an idle prince, he must be a graceful, gentle and wonderful person.It's a pity that he was born under the imperial power, and he would eventually face endless plots and scheming, cruel and bloody disputes, and his gentle and weak temperament became his most fatal weakness...

The chief eunuch cleared his throat and shouted "Shangchao", but there was an eerie silence around him for a while without anyone daring to speak.Lan Xuan frowned and looked down, only to see that some people lowered their heads irrelevantly, some frowned with displeasure, and some all focused their eyes on Lan Zheng.

"Your Majesty." Lan Zheng really hooked his lips lightly, took a step forward slowly in the sight of everyone, bowed slightly in a gesture, and said in a deep voice, "You have made a decision about Princess Jin's marriage ?"

"Uncle Emperor..." Lan Xuan hesitated for a moment, and looked up at him. Her handsome face seemed calm as water, but her fingertips that were tightly gripping the carved handrail were pale, "Princess I'm not satisfied with the marriage, I think... it's better to have a long-term plan."

"Ridiculous." Lan Zheng raised his brows high, and his eyes were full of overwhelming coercion. His deep black eyes were like an endless whirlpool, as if no matter how strong his will would be, he could swallow him up. According to the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, now that my father is not the eldest brother, it is natural that His Majesty should decide on this matter, how can she let her temperament do what she wants?"

"But that Zhang Yan has no talent, no looks, and his family background is not suitable for a princess, so I'm afraid he's not a good match." Lan Xuan took a deep breath, forced back the fear in her heart and looked back at Lan Zheng, just Even the gentle and watery eyes on weekdays also showed a bit of rare stubbornness.

"Zhang Yan?" Lan Jing frowned suspiciously, and muttered to herself in a low voice. In my impression, the regent princess's nephew seems to be called Zhang Yan? !

That person is illiterate, but extremely stubborn. I used to see him going in and out of the fireworks field, using the banner of the regent to do his best and domineeringly. When it comes to his dandyism, even I can't match him.

It's just that his father is mediocre, and he barely climbed to the third-rank official position with the help of the regent king for so many years, so in terms of background, he is really mediocre.But now if he really marries the princess, he will be the son-in-law of the dynasty, a relative of the emperor, and not only can he rise to the top, but also have the qualifications to hold an important position.

So when the time comes, it will become another important pawn in the hands of the Regent...

"Your Majesty!" Lan Zheng took a step forward slowly, and just this step made the suffocating sense of oppression suddenly increase.He narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a sneer, "Your Majesty thinks that the minister has no eyes, so he can't do anything for my Longxiao Kingdom Jianxian?!"

"Uncle Emperor..." Lan Xuan clenched her fingers into her palm silently. Although she stubbornly accepted the lingering gaze, her whole body tensed up in anxiety, as stiff as a weathered stone statue.He murmured in a low voice, but the next moment he was stunned and suddenly didn't know how to refute.

"Uncle Huang's words are wrong!" Lan Jing squinted at the aggressive king regent, took a step forward in displeasure, and kowtowed to Lan Xuan in the middle of the hall.He raised his head and said in a playful voice, "You just said that marriage should be ordered by parents. Before his death, father was also very worried about Princess Jin's marriage. He was talking with me in secret. At that time, there was a verbal order to allow Princess Jin to choose her own husband and son-in-law, and she must not interfere."

Lan Jing raised her eyebrows, but her tone was full of threats: "Uncle Huang will not even disobey the late emperor's last wish, will he?"

As soon as this remark came out, whispers suddenly exploded around.Everyone knows that before the death of Emperor Xian, he summoned Lan Jing alone for more than half an hour to have a secret talk, but no one knew the content after so many years.When the first emperor was alive, he loved this only daughter very much, but now he said so, it is somewhat believable, but...

"Without evidence, how can the court allow you to spout nonsense!" Lan Zheng half-closed his eyes in displeasure, and his voice was bitingly cold.

"Without evidence, how do you know I'm talking nonsense?" Lan Jing raised one corner of her mouth jokingly, refusing to give in at all.

Regarding Lan Jin's marriage, Lan Zheng had a plan in his mind, but he suddenly brought out a decree from the late emperor, and the situation took a turn for the worse. Accompanied by his low-pitched questioning, his cold voice was full of uncontrollable anger, "If If this is the case, why didn't you hand it over to Hanlin Pavilion to draw up the decree?"

"I forgot?!" Lan Jing spread her hands innocently, looking like a rascal, "You know I've always been absurd, I can't remember the business, you mentioned Princess Jin's marriage today, I just thought about it stand up."

"Oh?...forgot." Lan Zheng paced slowly, and leaned towards Lan Jing little by little. Those black pupils stared at his face, and Lan Jing felt extraordinarily eerie, which made him Can't help but want to escape.

In the appalling silence, Lan Jing took a step back shyly, but Lan Zheng didn't intend to stop at all, the huge pressure was getting closer and closer with his vigorous body, and it was only a blink of an eye.

Lan Jing didn't know what the regent wanted to do, but he had no choice but to retreat.Just when he unconsciously raised his hand in a hurry to block Lan Zheng's approach, a strong arm was placed between him and the man.

"Could it be that the regent is going to use force in the court?" Li Xuan suddenly rushed over at some point, raised his hand to protect Lan Jing firmly behind him, raised his eyebrows and sneered coldly.

"Hahahaha..." Lan Zheng was taken aback for a moment, and then burst into wanton laughter, "Prince Jing and Concubine Wang are really affectionate...don't be nervous, I just want another from King Jing It's just a promise~"

He looked at Li Xuan with pursed lips, raised his hand and slowly pushed down his arm lying in front of him, and said in a deep voice with a half-smile: "Prince Jing, how do you prove... what you said today is true?"

Lan Jing was protected by Li Xuan, looking at his generous back and strong arms, she immediately let go of all the fear and anxiety just now.He tilted his head, seemed to have pondered for a long time before answering loudly: "I swear by my royal blood, are you satisfied?

There was another round of discussions around.

Lan Zheng stood there, staring at him motionless for a long time, until Lan Jing felt his hair stand on end, he finally turned around, dragged a suit of Chinese clothes and walked back slowly, at the moment when he looked back , a few strands of cold light quietly flashed in his eyes:

"Very good...then let's do it according to the last emperor's will."

Lan Jing raised her head, seeing Lan Xuan's slightly relaxed expression at the moment, the corners of her mouth slightly raised a nice arc.Seeing that Lan Zheng had already left, Li Xuan also stepped back slowly, looking sideways at Lan Jing's shallow smile to Lan Xuan, as bright and warm as the first ray of sunlight breaking through the darkness in the morning.

……

The first court meeting after the newlyweds was full of wars and swords. Lan Jing and Li Xuan sat side by side in the carriage, listening to the hustle and bustle of the market with downcast eyes. His handsome face is always lingering in his mind, unable to get rid of it.

"Alas..." He sighed lowly, with a rare melancholy.The next moment, his thoughts were interrupted by Li Xuan's deep voice, and he came back to his senses slightly, "Is it true what you said about the last emperor's decree?"

"Naturally..." Lan Jing smiled and leaned against his shoulder, put her rosy lips against his ear, and suddenly lowered her voice and continued, "It's a fake."

"Then you..." Li Xuan was dumbfounded.

"Swear?" Lan Jing raised her eyebrows, her eyes were full of cunning, "I have never made countless oaths, and I guess the gods don't believe it anymore... It's hard for them to still be willing." How long will it take for the letter~"

Li Xuan's face darkened instantly, he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, he simply turned his head and ignored him.Lan Jing was not discouraged, took his arm and slowly leaned her head into his neck, closed her eyes, and whispered softly beside him: "Thank you..."

Li Xuan only felt a warm current flowing through his heart softly, sweet to the bottom of his heart.The warm breath on the side of the neck slowly passed over the chin, and the people around him snuggled up to him obediently like a cat that suddenly retracted its paws, making people want to hold him tightly in their arms.

But he didn't after all.

She just lowered her eyes, and covered the back of his arm with that generous palm.Lan Jing froze for a moment, and then actively intertwined with his fingers in the next moment, holding them tenderly.
