a little recession

The next morning, the early sun was slightly dewy, and only a few attendants were doing simple sweeping in the huge palace.When Li Ran came to the east gate, the soldiers guarding the gate saluted him, and Li Ran motioned for him to open the door.

Passing through the carved and inlaid wooden door, you can see a forest.Li Ran stood at the door and looked at the sun. It turned out that this person was not only vulgar but also had no sense of time.

There were a few imperceptible sounds in the corner of the wall beside him. Li Ran turned his head slightly and saw a half-dead fighting cock in the grass of the dog's tail.

The children of the royal family love to watch cockfights. This one should have fallen from the vehicle that transported the palace garbage early in the morning.The originally plump and beautiful game cock is dilapidated, and the blood holes pecked out by its companions are full of stains. Because of the hot weather, there are faint signs of rot, and the originally beautiful claws are helplessly naked. How do you look at this game cock? They won't live long.

Li Ran walked over slowly, half squatting on the bed, his corns were half closed but he was still struggling to die.Li Ran stretched out his hand to hold the chicken's neck and twisted it, and the trembling chicken feet stopped.

Li Ran looked calm, "If you can't fight, it should end like this. Why are you so obsessed with it?"

"Hehe, what did I see? Such a refined and noble appearance, but doing such cruel things. Li Ran, you have practiced such evil deeds in the Jialan Palace for the past ten years."

A careless voice, a nonchalant tone.Frowning slightly, Li Ran stood up and looked towards the direction of the voice. There was a man sitting on a big banyan tree by the wall. He wore a dark blue shirt and white shorts, and a pair of flip flops were hanging down on his feet. , with a bag of peeled peanuts in his hand.

The glare of the morning light forced Li Ran to squint, "How long have you been here?" Yang Fenglin pointed to the other side of the wall, "I watched you come out of the east gate."

Li Ran's face sank like water, "Why didn't you make a sound when you saw me?"

Yang Fenglin flicked the bag in his hand, "I wanted to call, didn't I just see you killing chickens?"

With a face full of provocation, a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes looked down upon Li Ran.

"You plan to keep talking to me in the tree?"

The early morning sun was already very venomous, and it hit Li Ran's face mercilessly, and the eyes were already full of water.

Yang Fenglin frowned slightly looking at that pretty face, not to mention how cool it is in his heart, let you be arrogant, let you ignore me!

"I think this is very good, it's cool on the tree."

Li Ran lowered her head and turned around, "Then you stay here."

Seeing that the smoky gray figure was about to leave, Yang Fenglin shouted anxiously, "Hey, don't go, I was joking with you, I have something to tell you."

Li Ran turned around, with a hint of impatience in her eyes.Yang Fenglin moved his body uncomfortably, "I'll jump down, you give me a hand."

Li Ran didn't speak, Yang Fenglin bowed slightly, "Remember to pick me up."

The dark blue figure went straight to Li Ran and jumped down, and Li Ran moved aside calmly.

Peng's voice...

"Hey, do you have a conscience or not? I let you follow me. How can we live in peace and respect and love each other in the future if you are like this."

If it wasn't for his quick reaction, his handsome face would turn into a pig's head, okay?

He got up from the ground, patted the ashes on his body, and rubbed his bruised knees. He knew that he shouldn't be wearing shorts. Li Ran is cold-blooded enough to not even pretend.

"Say something quickly, I have to go back to the hall to chant sutras."

Li Ran didn't look at him, fiddled with the beads in his hand, and looked ahead quietly.

Yang Fenglin jumped in front of him, "Hey, shouldn't you look at people when you talk to them? No one taught you when you were young?"

Li Ran closed his eyes and changed direction. Yang Fenglin chased him just to get in front of him, "Li Ran, with your attitude, how should we cooperate well in the future? Chanting? What scriptures are you chanting? You hate that old woman to death Would you still chant scriptures to her sincerely?"

Li Ran couldn't stand the noise in his ears,

"I don't think it's necessary for us to cooperate."

Yang Fenglin took out a peanut from the bag and chewed it in his mouth, "If we don't cooperate, are we really husband and wife?"

Li Ran was too lazy to answer, and turned to leave, but Yang Fenglin stopped him.When it fell, it got some ash on its hands, and all of it stuck to the soot-stained Jialan jacket.

"You!" Looking at the shining half handprint, Li Ran felt a little uncomfortable with the collapse of the forehead.

"Ouch, I'm sorry, I'll wipe it for you." Yang Fenglin deliberately patted his body with both hands, but got more dust on it.

Li Ran watched the people in front of him having fun, but slowly tightened his hand holding the prayer beads, "Have you played enough?"

Finally, there was a little more anger in the calm voice, Yang Fenglin was happy, it was normal to speak like this, what's the point of being like a puppet.

Stopping the movements of his hands, Yang Fenglin looked at him with a smile, "Seriously, do you know that the Ministry of Internal Affairs has given you a gift list?"

Although Li Ran hadn't seen the gift list yet, he knew it would not be that simple.

"Do you have someone in the cabinet?"

Yang Fenglin snapped his fingers, he is indeed a smart person.

"You don't know about my scandal with the CEO, do you? I don't believe that Zhao Yucheng didn't take the opportunity to slander me the day he came to pick you up."

"Slander? Don't you admit it?" Li Ran is not interested in Yang Fenglin's private life, but as Yang Fenglin said, they have to live together in the future, and even if they can't cooperate, they can't hold each other back.

"You went to the Garan Palace for ten years, and the queen's other younger brothers died or were injured. You survived well. Don't tell me it's luck. I think you haven't cultivated compassion at all in the past ten years. Who to bless you."

Yang Fenglin leaned crookedly under the tree, it was still cool under the shade.

Li Ran carefully looked at the man who seemed to have no bones and no appearance,

"You're not as stupid as I thought."

Yang Fenglin cut out, "I came to you today because I wanted to have a close relationship with you. The Yang family was also tricked by the former queen about marrying you. Now we are on the same boat. If the boat capsizes, we will die together." , I don’t want to die, so I have to cooperate with you. If you have other plans in the future, I, Yang Fenglin, won’t be your stumbling block, so I’ll go by myself, how about it?”

Li Ran stared at the man in front of him. He liked to laugh very much. He always spoke with a three-point smile that made people not like it at all. But there was no half-truth in this kind of smile. Yang Fenglin, are you telling the truth?

"I don't need your help, I just hope you don't cause trouble for me."

Li Ran felt that he had talked enough today, moved his body and walked towards the carved wooden door inlaid with gold.

Yang Fenglin followed closely, opened the bag, "Do you want to eat peanuts, I just fried them at home."

Li Ran glanced at the dusty cloth bag and Yang Fenglin's dirty hands.Today's forehead was a bit painful, and I waved my hand to block the outstretched hand, and a small handful of peanuts rolled to the ground.

Yang Fenglin clicked his tongue, "It seems that His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince doesn't like this ordinary thing."

How could he fail to hear the sarcasm in these words.

"The word Yang on your bag is a little less."

Yang Fenglin let out an ah, quickly grabbed it and took a look, it was really true.Looking up again, people have already entered the east gate.

Yang Fenglin snorted, what a look, "Prudish!"

After Li Ran passed the east gate, he couldn't help but raised his hand and pressed his painful forehead, "I'm uneducated."

The chief guard who came to look for him heard it and hurriedly asked, "Your Highness Seventh, what did you say?"

Li Ran waved his hand, "What's wrong?"

It was only then that the chief guard realized that he had a serious business to do, "The First Concubine is waiting for you in the hall, and discussed the gift list."

"not see."

Refusing without mercy, the head guard hummed.

"Your Highness Seventh, the First Princess is the only one who is willing to handle things for you? Do you think so?"

Li Ran patted the sleeve that was stained by Yang Fenglin just now, and the dust was everywhere, "There is no such rule."

The chief guard grinned lightly, "Understood, I'm going back to the eldest princess."

Li Ran looked at the half-white haired, unsmiling chief guard,

"Who are you from?"

The head guard bowed respectfully, "Your Highness Seventh's question is strange. If you enter this palace, of course you belong to the king, and whoever is the king belongs to that."

Li Ran waved at him, "Go down."

The head of the guard retreated respectfully, leaving only Li Ran alone in the empty backyard of the east gate. When the wind picked up, dark clouds in the sky covered half of the sun, and the strong wind blew the smoky blue jacket against Li Ran's body.The sun was still shining for a moment, and then it was dark all of a sudden.This weird weather is like the unpredictable people's hearts in the palace. What is lost can never be changed again.

Before Yang Fenglin could wait to pick up his star anise, it started to rain suddenly.

"Damn the weather, let's do it as soon as we say it. If you see Li Ran, nothing good will happen."

Yang Fenglin is not happy anymore, there is no place to hide from the rain here.The horn of the car sounded behind him, and Yang Fenglin looked back impatiently, "What's the noise? There's no place to drive next to me, so I insist on going my way."

The passenger window was lowered, and a beautiful face appeared inside, "Who messed with you, get in the car."

As soon as Yang Fenglin saw the person, his mood immediately improved, "Azhi!"

After speaking, he quickly opened the car door and got in the car. Wang Yuzhi handed him the silk scarf in his hand, "Wipe it quickly, be careful not to catch a cold."

"Azhi, why are you here?" Yang Fenglin brushed her wet hair hastily, and looked at her cousin with a smile.

"Come out to collect the bill. When you meet Bajiao, you know you're not driving. Seeing that the weather is about to change, I'm afraid you'll get wet and hurry up to pick you up."

Yang Fenglin was overjoyed, and stepped forward to hug Wang Yuzhi's arm, "It's better to be my sister."

Wang Yuzhi nodded his forehead, "Go home and eat, Wang Ma has already prepared the food."

Yang Fenglin held up the bag in his hand, "Azhi, you peeled this for me." Wang Yuzhi straightened his messy hair, "You child, you like to eat but you don't want to peel it yourself because you are afraid of trouble. I peeled it for you since I was a child." You know, I have always had a wish, that our family Fenglin must find someone who will peel peanuts for him for the rest of his life."

Yang Fenglin sighed deliberately, "I can't find the person who peeled my peanuts, but the person who knocked over my peanuts should be together every day."

Wang Yuzhi patted the back of his hand, "It will get better in the future, and it's not the worst situation yet."

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, Yang Fenglin held up the bag in his hand and showed it to his sister, "Look why the word Yang is missing a bit."

Wang Yuzhi thought for a while, "Ah, the line just happened to be out at that time, and I didn't think to buy it afterwards, so I forgot."

Yang Fenglin picked up the bag and looked carefully, "I remember that this thread was specially ordered by Ying Fulin for you back then, and you can't buy it elsewhere."

After saying this, he realized that he seemed to have chatted to death. Wang Yuzhi smiled and stopped talking, but the forced smile was also a little stiff.

Yang Fenglin said leisurely, "In this world, besides you, Ying Fulin is the only one who will remember to peel peanuts for me."

Yang Fenglin returned home, looked around to see if he saw his old father, Wang Yuzhi put rice in his hands, "Uncle went to the cellar to pick gold for you."

Only then did I remember that when I got home last night, I took a picture of the gift list on Yang Dingzhou's desk. I didn't expect that the old man would go to collect it so soon. How positive he was.

Yang Fenglin put a big mouthful of rice into his mouth, looking at Wang Yuzhi who was picking up food for him, the unhappiness in the car just now seemed to be his hallucination.

"Back then you and Ying Fulin were congenial, and Lao Yang said that his father was in the cabinet of the parliament. He was afraid that the Yang family would fall into the vortex of power struggle, and he would not let you marry him. Ku picks gold and wants to send his own son into the royal family. It’s not as good as when you eloped with that brat Ying Fulin back then, so you don’t have to marry that stick of Zhao Yucheng.”

Wang Yuzhi gave him a sideways glance, "Good food and good food can't stop your mouth! I understand uncle, he didn't let me marry into the Ying family because of the Yang family, and now he's letting you into the royal family because of the Yang family. I don't mind The blame is that I am not blessed."

Yang Fenglin put down his chopsticks, "Then you have a choice now, you and Zhao Yucheng divorced and married Ying Fulin, and he didn't get married because of you."

Wang Yuzhi slipped his hand holding the soup, "Don't talk nonsense, how can you say such nonsense!"

"Why are you hesitating now? The Yang family has involved everything that shouldn't be involved. If that bastard Zhao Yucheng treats you well, I won't say anything. You said that you have been married for so many years, when did the woman outside him ever break up! You cleaned up his mess behind his back, and posted how much money he had to find flowers and ask Liu, are you having a good time these days?"

Wang Yuzhi put down the bowl and got up, "Fenglin, you can't say this anymore, if it spreads out, it won't be good for the Yang family's reputation for Fulin."

Wang Yuzhi left, Yang Fenglin looked at her somewhat embarrassed back and felt distressed, but his distress was of no use, one had waited for so many years, and the other was guarding a marriage that was equal to nothing, and he was a bystander, even if he died of anxiety, it was useless.

Yang Dingzhou came back from the cellar, took the handkerchief from the servant and wiped his hands, looked at his son, "Where is Ah Zhi? Finished eating? What kind of eyes are you looking at? Who is mad at you?"

Before Yang Dingzhou sat still, he was stabbed by his son's needle-like gaze and immediately wanted to lift his ass and leave.

Yang Fenglin took a piece of ribs and put it in his mouth, "It's not because of you!"

Li Ran knelt on the futon and chanted scriptures, the door behind him slowly opened, the visitor hesitated at the door, and finally walked into the hall and stopped beside him.

A fragrance of pomegranate flowers drifted around the hall with the breeze.

Li Ran opened his eyes and clasped his hands together.

The woman behind him took two steps closer, the fragrance of the flowers became stronger and stronger, Li Ran stood up slowly while supporting the futon alone, the woman who had already walked to his side let out a soft cry,

"Brother Lanqiao."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Li Ran just doesn't like you, I can't even look at you too much, and if I like you, you can't stay an inch away from me.
