The mad concubine of the group loves the world

Chapter 183 Is This Guy Jealous?

"The spies haven't brought back any news yet."

Chi Zheng replied earnestly: "However, it is said that Jia Dafang was interrogated by Mr. He himself, and it is estimated that he can spit out a lot of things."

"Xie Huaijin is dead, what will the Xie family do?" For some reason, Lu Wanlan felt that this time the matter was not that simple.

"The Xie family has always been very cautious in their actions. They only say everything to the outside world, but let the Holy One decide, nothing else."

After Chi Zheng finished speaking, he thought for a while and then recounted all the other things about the floating corpses in Heizhuang Ridge:
"The extra corpses looked horrific. They should have been injured by blunt weapons like axes. The prisoners were festered all over, as if..."

Before Chi Zheng could finish speaking, he suddenly remembered the sound of reining in the horse outside the car.

Xiaoxi lifted the curtain and saw that it was the prince who had come, so she dragged Chi Zheng and rushed out.

Lu Wanlan saw that Chi Zheng had left in the middle of what he had said, and got up to chase after him, but bumped into Xiao Yanzhi head-on: "My lord, why are you here?"

Thinking back on how she looked when she was drunk, Lu Wanlan suddenly felt embarrassed.

But Xiao Yanzhi didn't bother to pay attention to her pettiness, and directly threw a thick stack of rosters on her face:

"I don't care what Qionglou fairy island you have been to, how high your internal strength is! Today's Queen Mother's birthday banquet, these are the guest lists, you should remember them firmly! Stop talking nonsense! Don't cause trouble!"

Lu Wanlan turned her face away, only listening to the man crackling and roaring like setting off a firecracker, she didn't dare to speak.

The clean chin was ruthlessly smashed in front of him by Xiao Yanzhi's iron palm:
"Otherwise, this king will let you know what is! The consequences!"

If it was any other woman who had this thunderous momentum, even if she didn't have nightmares, she would still cry.

But Lu Wanlan felt that Xiao Yanzhi's behavior must be because he cared about himself.Immediately, he smiled, and put his two lotus arms on his neck:
"The concubine knows, and promises to complete the task! No mistakes will be made!"

Xiao Yanzhi frowned and tore off her plain hand:
"Come on this!"

Lu Wanlan was not angry, picked up the roster and flipped through it a few times, seeing that the man turned around as if he was about to leave, her jade fingers hurriedly grabbed the hem of his clothes:
"Does your lord know that Xie Huaijin died in Heizhuang Ridge in the south of the city?"

I saw the black figure in front of me froze suddenly, then turned around and said in a low voice:

"My king did it."

what?
"When did the lord move his hand?" Lu Wanlan did not expect Xiao Yanzhi to answer like this, and her tone couldn't help but become more urgent.

"how?"

Xiao Yanzhi's tone was cold without any trace, and his face was calm: "Doesn't the princess want this king to do this?"

Unaware of his emotional ups and downs, Lu Wanlan was a little annoyed:
"Does the lord know that the Lu family has searched for Xianbu's clues for so long, and he is the most critical link!"

"Besides, he is the son of Mrs. Xie, if the prince is found out..."

In the past two days, Xiao Yanzhi has imagined countless times what the woman will take the initiative to discuss with him when she wakes up:
Or apologizing for ruining the blueprint for the new palace.

Or, to reinterpret the gibberish when he was drunk to himself.

He didn't expect any ivory to come out of her dog's mouth.

But he never expected that he would blame himself for this incident!
Ignoring Lu Wanlan's broken thoughts, Xiao Yanzhi narrowed his black eyes, and his voice was full of danger:
"Is the princess reluctant?"

"...When did the concubine say..."

Lu Wanlan was stunned, and raised her eyes to meet his four eyes, only to see that Xiao Yan's black pupils were filled with thick fog, no emotion could be seen, and she was staring at herself intently.

This, this guy must be, jealous, right?

The brief silence was suddenly broken by the neighing of a horse outside.

The visitor didn't care when he saw Xiao Yanzhi's Mo Xiaoliema, and only called out to the little man behind the curtain:
"Sister Lan! Now that you've arrived at the Shaolu paddock, don't get bored in the carriage. I'll take you to Lingze Lake to get some fresh air!"

Hearing this unscrupulous yell, the evil fire that Xiao Yanzhi suppressed in his heart burst into flames, and he looked at Lu Wanlan coldly:
"The king knows this matter well, but the princess should do what she should do first!"

After finishing speaking, he raised the curtain of the car and flew onto the horse.

He changed from his usual humility and obedience, and looked up at Xiao Yihan as if declaring his sovereignty:

"Brother Wu Wang, Lan'er has been feeling unwell recently. If Brother Wang is interested in going to Lingze Lake, Brother Wang is willing to accompany him."

"Ah……"

Xiao Yi laughed coldly, with contempt overflowing from the corners of his eyes, but he saw Xiao Yan's appearance flourishing, and he never showed any tiredness.

Suddenly, he had doubts about the information he had.

However, it is a fact that Lu imperial doctor treated him, even though Yan Wang's mansion and Dingguo's mansion kept Xiao Yanzhi's illness a secret.Externally, they just poured dirty water on Lu Wanlan.

But Xiao Yihan still smelled something strange, and he became concerned as soon as he thought about it, and slowly tightened his hand holding the rein:

"Sixth brother has always led troops in Yanbei, and his riding and archery skills are the best. You and my brothers haven't learned riding skills for many years. It's still early. Are you interested in a competition?"

There were flying stars in Xiao Yan's eyes, he took a deep look at Xiao Yihan, and said word by word:

"Respect, it is better to obey."

After saying that, the two of them swung their whips on the horse's buttocks at the same time, and left in the dust.

When Lu Wanlan raised the curtain, he could only hear the sound of horseshoes treading mud, and the two of them had already disappeared on the boundless grassland in front of them.

Although she was worried about Xiao Yan's situation, but right now she had to take into account the tasks he had given her.

Sighing, he leaned on the soft pillow, unfolded the roster lightly, and flipped through it boredly.

The guests at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet are nothing more than clan aristocrats, important court officials and relatives, or envoys from other countries.

I have already seen most of these people at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, so what else is there to see?
However, since Xiao Yanzhi told himself to treat it with caution, Lu Wanlan still studied patiently one by one.

After looking through the densely packed names of the family members surnamed Wang, the first one on the list of Xie's family unexpectedly wrote a name that Lu Wanlan could not have dreamed of:
Xie Bi.

Mrs. Xie?
She sat up straight in an instant.

Could it be that today's birthday banquet, the chief minister of the cabinet who has been delegating power for many years, will also attend?
If Grand Tutor Xie has returned to Beijing, how come there is no news about the third brother Lu Yunli who went to Shanxi to handle the case and has been lingering outside Beijing for many days?

Lu Wanlan was anxious, so she threw away the roster, lifted the curtain and got out of the car.

Unexpectedly, she had just set foot on the pasture in her emerald-colored cloud-toed shoes inlaid with oriental pearls, when she heard Xiaoxi scream:
"Girl beware!"

Lu Wanlan was intoxicated by the thick and colorful autumn scenery, but this scream made her feet go limp, and she fell to the ground with a "gudong".

The pungent smell of horse manure, mixed with the smell of soil, permeated the nostrils.

Chi Zheng rushed over against the wind and helped Lu Wanlan up:
"You're not hurt, are you? This subordinate will take you to the tent to change."

"Why did the girl come down by herself?"

Xiaoxi hurriedly took out Supa and wiped off the muddy water and horse manure on her cloak:
"It has been raining for several days, and the grassland is covered with mud. Wearing cloud-toed shoes, you will definitely sink in. The girl changed her riding boots before going to ride and shoot."

He even forgot about this!

Lu Wanlan nodded, and followed the two towards her tent.

Although she was quite embarrassed covered in mud and water, but she cared about her third brother and ignored the surprised looks cast by the motorcade along the way:

"Where is the fourth brother? I have something to ask him."

"Fourth Master and the others are in the tent responsible for the luncheon. When they are done here, they will go to the palace beside Lingze Lake to prepare the dinner."

"okay."

Lu Wanlan kicked deeply, and finally walked onto the path paved with wooden planks: "There is nothing to do until around noon, so let's go and help."

As she was explaining, she suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes thundering behind her.

Before he raised his eyes to find out, he was surrounded by a group of brightly dressed girls riding horses from all directions.

Although they pinched their noses and couldn't hide their sneers, they were looking at this little man covered in mud and water with contempt on their faces.

"Hey~ Isn't this Princess Yan? Why come to the deer paddock with this appearance?"

"That's right! It's not enough to lose a woman's morality, but she doesn't even want to lose her face!"
