Qing Ning trotted all the way and finally caught up with Lin Yan who was striding ahead, "Prince".

Lin Yan frowned, and said in a deep voice, "What happened?"

Then, from Qing Ning's mouth, Lin Yan probably knew the ins and outs of the matter.

In short, when a maid in the palace was cleaning Yu Sheng's bedroom, she accidentally knocked over the coffin of his mother and concubine to the ground, and Yu Sheng was so angry that he asked someone to drag that maid out and stick her to death.

After hearing the news, Xia Lan hurried over to plead for mercy, but the final result was that the servant girl was changed to be responsible for twenty sticks, and Xia Lan was asked to kneel down in the ancestral hall for self-examination because of the incompetence of the servants in the discipline house. sorry.

After hearing this, Lin Yan clenched his hands into fists, which is simply too deceptive!

Like a gust of wind, in a blink of an eye, Lin Yan arrived at the ancestral hall dedicated to the ancestors of the Leng family, and at a glance he saw the slender figure kneeling straight in the center.

"Sister Lan!"

I don't know if I knelt for too long, or was startled by Lin Yan's voice suddenly, Xia Lan's body couldn't help trembling slightly.

"Yan'er is back"

The usual gentle smile gently climbed up the corners of the brows and eyes, against the pale complexion, it hurt Lin Yan's heart more and more.

“Haven't eaten yet”

"I'll help you up"

Before Xia Lan finished speaking, Lin Yan bent down and reached out to help her up, but she avoided her.

"Yan'er, don't mess around"

"I'm not fooling around!"

Lin Yan stubbornly held Xia Lan's arm with one hand, and went around behind him with the other hand to support his other arm, and then he helped him stand up with a sudden force.

Xia Lan's strength was far inferior to Lin Yan's. In addition, she had been kneeling for three or four hours, her legs had already lost feeling, and she couldn't break free from Lin Yan's restraint at all, so she could only speak hastily to stop her.

"Yan'er, no, the time has not yet come, Yan'er!"

"I have been kneeling for so many hours, and I have beaten people, enough!"

It was rare for Lin Yan to be so "overbearing". Seeing that the person in her arms couldn't stand still at all, but still struggling to get out of her embrace, she simply gritted her teeth and hugged the person horizontally.

"If it's not enough, let that princess come to me!"

Caught off guard, Xia Lan couldn't help exclaiming, "Yan'er, no, it can't be like this", how could it be like this... Not to mention the difference between men and women, Yan'er is now the princess' consort, if someone else sees it, wouldn't it be... …

Xia Lan was so anxious that she pushed Lin Yan's shoulders with both hands, but Lin Yan hugged her even tighter.

"When Sister Lan recovers, I will apologize to Sister Lan again."

Turning around, she found that Yu Sheng and Qing Ying were standing at the gate of the ancestral hall at some time, looking at her and Xia Lan in her arms without saying a word.

"Yan'er! Let me down!"

Her voice was slightly hoarse and low, unlike the usual soft-spoken words, it seemed that she was really annoyed.

"Princess, let's talk about it later"

"Yan'er!"

After the words fell, regardless of Yu Sheng's reaction, or how the person in his arms resisted, he looked ahead, raised his foot and left the ancestral hall.

Qing Ying stared dumbfounded at the people who passed them by, and began to suspect that there was something wrong with her eyes and ears.

"Princess, she, they, are too arrogant."

Yu Sheng turned around slowly, just in time to see the figures of the two disappearing in front of the door, and Qingying couldn't see any emotional ups and downs from those cold eyes.

"Let's go back"

Lin Yan carried Xia Lan all the way back to the room, carefully placed her on the side of the bed and sat down, first pulled the quilt from the inside of the bed to wrap her up, and then lifted the hem of her robe to one knee Kneel down.

Before the raised hand could touch Xia Lan's leg, it was blocked by Xia Lan's hand.

"Yan'er, don't do this, get up quickly"

"Let me see your legs first"

Lin Yan was stubborn, and Xia Lan was also stubborn. His left hand tightly grasped Lin Yan's wrist, trying not to let him touch her leg.

"I'm fine, Yan'er, you go back quickly"

"What's the matter?! I can't feel my legs, I can't even stand still, and I said it's okay!"

Lin Yan frowned and looked at Xia Lan. It was the first time he lost his temper with her since he was a child.

Xia Lan couldn't help being startled for a while, lowered her eyebrows, and said softly, "It's good to rest for a while, besides, there is still Man'er here."

Her thin lips were tightly pursed, and she suddenly turned her head and yelled at the door, "Man'er!".

Man'er hurriedly walked in after hearing the sound, "What is your order?"

"Go get some hot water!"

Xia Lan looked down at Lin Yan's tense facial lines, and finally couldn't help stretching out her hand. After hesitating for a long time, her fingertips still lightly touched Lin Yan's shoulder.

"Yan'er, don't worry, I really didn't"

"I'll have to see it to know"

The hand on Lin Yan's right shoulder exerted force unconsciously, "Yan'er".

"I know that men and women are different." Lin Yan suddenly interrupted Xia Lan, raised his eyes and looked straight into his eyes, "Sister Ke Lan, I'm not".

"..."

Xia Lan frowned slightly, her lips parted slightly, but Lin Yan took the lead and said, "I know, in the eyes of outsiders, Sister Lan and I are different men and women." After a moment, "But in the eyes of outsiders Here, the eldest sister-in-law is also like, mother, isn't it?".

I don't know how much strength and courage I have exhausted, but when the words came out, the black eyes were already shrouded in mist, as fragile as glass.

"Since that's the case, it's only natural for me to take care of Sister Lan."

"..."

The water waves in Qiushui's bright eyes seemed to turn into ice picks in an instant, piercing the fundus of the eyes with pain.

In the end, Xia Lan didn't say anything to stop her, she only turned her face away gently, and Lin Yan still gently lifted her left foot, placed it on her left knee, and then pressed her hands gently on her cold and painful knee .

Although Pingnan is located at the southernmost point of Yunmu, it is already winter after all, and the floor is cold. After kneeling for so long, the cold might have entered his body.

Lin Yan tried to press it gently a few times while paying close attention to Xia Lan's expression.

Although Xia Lan concealed it very well, Lin Yan still sensed her deliberate forbearance from the corners of her brows and eyes. She felt helpless, but more than that, she felt distressed.

"It may be necessary to smear medicinal wine on this place and rub it well"

After finishing speaking, Lin Yan turned his hands below his knees, and gently pressed the slender calf.

Xia Lan couldn't help looking down at Lin Yan, who looked serious and moved gently. Although she didn't feel much of her calf, a suspicious blush still unconsciously appeared on her fair cheeks.

From being motionless at the beginning, to shrinking back later, Lin Yan thought that he should have gradually regained consciousness, so he switched to the other foot.

Man'er fetched hot water, and Lin Yan asked him to put it beside him, and then asked him to prepare hot water for bathing.

When picking up the handkerchief from the hot water, Lin Yan subconsciously withdrew his hand when he was burned. Xia Lan frowned and was about to lean over to stop it, but Lin Yan reached out and fished it out.

After wringing out the handkerchief a little, Lin Yan raised his head, "Sister Lan, I offended you."

Then, before Xia Lan could react, she lifted off the white trousers, revealing her slender calves and slightly red and swollen knees.

Xia Lan was so startled that she subconsciously shrank back her calf, but Lin Yan easily grabbed that tiny ankle.

"Yan"

Lin Yan couldn't help but apply the hot handkerchief on the slightly red and swollen knee, "First apply the heat, and then take a hot bath later to dissipate the cold air in the body."

"..."

Xia Lan bit her lower lip slightly, but did not speak.

Lin Yan didn't say any more, just lowered his head and continued to rub Xia Lan's right calf seriously.

The time was quiet, as if someone had deliberately slowed down the pace, the two people in the room sat and knelt, their minds were different, but they were all erratic in the same way.

It wasn't until a strange feeling suddenly came from three inches above the knee, like numbness and itching, that Xia Lan just came back to her senses and bowed her head, "Yan, Er".

Panicked, Xia Lan hurriedly stretched out her hands to hold down the hands that were resting on her thighs, her gentle yet delicate face was alternately white and red.

Then when he realized that the scene where the two hands were overlapping their thighs seemed to be more ambiguous, he hurriedly withdrew his hand like an electric shock, and after recovering, Lin Yan also hurriedly withdrew his hand, and lowered his eyes in embarrassment. stand up.

"Here, the hot water is ready, Sister Lan, go take a bath first."

Xia Lan stood up in silence, her legs went limp after taking a step, but fortunately, Lin Yan's eyesight was sharp and his hands reached out to support her in time.

But Xia Lan plunged into Lin Yan's arms, feeling the obviously stiff body of the person in her arms, Lin Yan hurriedly supported Xia Lan's slender shoulders, and then took a step back to distance herself from her.

"Manle"

Lin Yan who came out of the room couldn't help but let out a deep breath, thinking of the scene in the room just now, his heart seemed to come and go in water and fire.

After quickly adjusting his mood, he walked towards the courtyard where he lived.

This time, Lin Yan neither knocked on the door, nor let Qingying pass the message, and went straight in.

As soon as he looked up, he saw the person who was sitting in front of the couch drinking tea with lowered eyebrows. There was also a cup of tea on the other side of the couch, and he had been waiting for Lin Yan for a long time.

Lin Yan suppressed his displeasure, went straight to the other side of the couch and sat down.

"Princess, is this trying to ruin the agreement you and I made that night?"

"What does the son-in-law mean by that?" Yu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "I have never regretted the agreement between the son-in-law and my palace."

"is it?"

Lin Yan stretched out his hand to hold the cup of tea in front of him, his eyes drooped slightly, and then he heard a bang, the teacup split into pieces instantly, and the tea splashed everywhere.

Yu Sheng lowered her eyebrows slightly, and glanced lightly at the sudden beige drop splashed on the corner of the snow-white skirt.

"Is the son-in-law too angry recently?"

Lin Yan didn't care about Yu Sheng's acting stupid, and stood up and patted the clothes that were not obviously stained with dust.

"If there is a next time, I can either agree to join forces with you, or agree to join forces with others, or I don't need anyone at all..."

After finishing speaking coldly, Lin Yan raised his foot and left regardless of Yu Sheng's reaction.

Yu Sheng unconsciously squeezed the teacup tightly in his hand slightly, "You know, just with this statement, you can kill your nine clans."

Lin Yan stopped suddenly and sneered, "It's different now, does the princess still think that she is the daughter of the most favored concubine?".

The hand holding the teacup suddenly squeezed hard, and the tea splashed all over his hand. Yu Sheng turned his head slowly, staring at Lin Yan with dark eyes.

"You are not allowed to mention my concubine mother, you are not qualified to mention her!"

Lin Yan turned around and looked at Yu Sheng with gloomy and cold eyes again, "It's really because of your mother and concubine that you are targeting Sister Lan everywhere!".
