The salty fish lady just wants to get over the wall

Chapter 230 Chapter 230: The Identity of Beihe Crown Prince

Her voice was soft and flustered, reminding Xiao Yihan of Wen Nianruan back then.

She always speaks in such a soft voice, afraid to look at people when she speaks, timid and cowardly.

"polite."

Xiao Yihan withdrew his eyes from her, frowned and flicked his sleeves, his expression cold.

Murong Longyue looked at Murong Qingying, and quietly narrowed her beautiful eyes, the tails of which were slightly sullen.

Murong Qingying stood aside with downcast eyes, her face was cramped and flustered, and she didn't know what to do.

Xiao Yihan lifted his eyes to look at her, his brows slightly frowned.

As an empress dowager, her expression and demeanor should not be like this.
He glanced at Murong Longyue calmly again.

Zuo Rong came over, glanced quietly at Murong Longyue, and said to Xiao Yihan: "His Royal Highness is new here, and she is still a little uncomfortable. Don't be offended, Your Highness Xuan Wang."

"Ah."

Xiao Yihan had cold brows and eyes, and didn't say much.

When the group entered the palace, Xiao Jinran arranged for them to rest at Yongming Palace, and held a reception banquet for them in the evening.

In the evening, Wen Nianruan also attended.

When she saw Murong Qingying, her reaction was exactly the same as Xiao Yihan's, the two of them were too similar.

Even Murong Qingying couldn't help but stare blankly when she saw her.

In the first place, Xiao Jinran narrowed his eyes and looked at the two of them with deep eyes.

Yun Chen'an's face was calm, and he lowered his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.

On Beihe's side, Zuo Rong and Xiao Lan had different expressions when they saw Wen Nianruan.

As everyone entered the table, Xiao Jinran raised his wine glass: "The Empress Dowager and the Empress have worked so hard to come from afar. I am sorry to welcome you from afar, so here is a special toast."

"Emperor Shengming."

Everyone stood up one after another, raised their glasses and drank in one gulp.

Zuo Rong held on to the wine glass and looked at Wen Nianruan, with dark eyes hidden in his eyes: "I heard that Concubine Wen will be crowned Empress soon, I hereby offer a cup to Concubine Wen."

Wen Nianruan took a sip with a cup of tea in his hand, and smiled: "Thank you, Prime Minister Zuo."

She and Zuo Rong were polite, but didn't say any more.

This Prime Minister Zuo looked at her with cold eyes, which made her very uncomfortable.

Murong Qingying sat at the side, with lowered eyebrows and eyes not daring to look casually, showing an unconcealable timidity.

Xiao Jinran's eyes fell on her: "For the sake of the friendship between our two countries, the Empress Dowager has worked so hard to come here to make a marriage proposal. I wonder if the Empress Dowager is interested in the Xiliang men present here?"

Murong Qingying lowered her eyes, before realizing that Xiao Jinran was talking to her, Zuo Rong beside her squinted her eyes and touched her, Murong Qingying panicked like a deer, and quickly got up.

She responded obediently: "I, I haven't figured it out yet."

Xiao Jin's eyes were deep, and he said politely: "Since the empress dowager hasn't made up her mind yet, I won't ask any more questions. When the empress dowager finds a man from our Xiliang, she can tell me anytime."

"well."

Murong Qingying responded timidly, and couldn't help raising her eyes quietly, and glanced at Xiao Yihan's position.

Sensing a gaze looking over, Xiao Yihan raised his eyes, just in time to meet Murong Qingying's eyes.

Murong Qingying hastily moved her eyes away, and twirled her fingers under the table, a little at a loss.

Xiao Yihan looked back, shook the wine glass in his hand twice, and then drank it down in one gulp, his expression indifferent. …

Murong Longyue caught Murong Qingying's little move just now, and there was a sinister look at the end of her eyes.

The banquet was in progress, Wen Nianruan frowned, and could always feel Youdao's seemingly invisible eyes falling on her.

She lowered her eyelids and met Xiao Lan's eyes.

Xiao Lan stared at her deeply, his eyes darkened slightly.

Wen Nianruan felt that there was something deep in her expression.

In the middle of the banquet, Wen Nianruan couldn't hold it anymore, she was tired, so she greeted Xiao Jinran and left first.

Knowing that she was weak, Xiao Jinran didn't make things difficult for her, and asked her to go back to rest first.

When walking on the road, there were palace people passing by and the lights were bright, but Wen Nianruan still felt very uneasy, always feeling that someone was following her behind.

She looked back twice, but she didn't see any strange people.

Wen Nianruan's face was solemn, and he couldn't help walking fast.

Qiu Bai supported her and felt that her steps were a little fast, so she couldn't help reminding: "Your Majesty, please walk slowly, be careful not to fall."

There were also many palace people passing by around, and with so many people, Wen Nianruan still felt insecure.

When he was about to reach Fuhua Palace, a palace official came to meet him, "Concubine Wen, my slave has something to report."

Wen Nianruan paused, "What's the matter?"

The palace servant approached, just as Wen Nianruan was touching, a long sword suddenly passed through his chest, Qiu Bai's face was pale, just about to scream, a stone hit her suddenly, and her acupuncture point was caught.

Qiu Bai couldn't move, and couldn't make a sound.

The palace man fell to the ground with a bang, still holding a dagger in his hand, he was about to stab Wen Nianruan just now.

And the person stabbing the sword behind him is Xiao Lan.

Immediately, another figure fell down, carried the corpse on the ground and left. The speed of what happened here was so fast that the palace people not far away had not had time to notice it.

Wen Nianruan was still calm, he took a step back while stroking his abdomen, wary of her: "What does General Xiao mean?"

Xiao Lan said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, I won't hurt you, but you tell your maid to keep silent."

"You open her acupuncture points, and I promise she won't scream."

A stone popped out from her fingertip and hit Qiu Bai's body, Xiao Lan readily unblocked her acupuncture points.

Qiu Bai stopped yelling, but kept a vigilant face, protecting Wen Nianruan in fear.

"Not much time, let me make a long story short." Xiao Lan took two steps closer and whispered next to Wen Nianruan, "Do you have half a token in your hand, with a dragon engraved on one side and a phoenix on the other?"

Wen Nianruan narrowed his eyes and retreated, his eyes became more defensive: "What do you mean?"

A figure came in front of him, Xiao Lan narrowed his eyes, it was Zuo Rong.

Her eyes darkened, and she spoke faster: "That's the 'Dragon and Phoenix Token,' a token of the former empress dowager Murong Qiyue." Seeing that Zuo Rong was approaching, she said: "Be careful who comes behind you, Murong Qingying is your sister."

As soon as she spoke, she disappeared into the night.

Wen Nianruan was stunned, thinking about her last sentence, Murong Qingying is her sister.
Is this why the two of them are similar?
Footsteps came from behind, Wen Nianruan turned his head and looked at Zuo Rong, just now Xiao Lan's previous words were telling her to be careful of people coming behind her.

Tell her to be careful with Zoron.

"Ms. Concubine Wen," Zuo Rong's attitude was still so superior, it may be because he was in a high position in Beihe and was used to being bowed down and complimented, so he had a sense of superiority in his bones.

Her eyes scanned the surroundings calmly, she hooked her lower lip, and said with a half smile: "Just now I vaguely saw Concubine Wen talking to someone, who are you chatting with?"

Yun Qingyue smiled calmly, and her tone became a little more arrogant: "Who is this palace talking to? Does Prime Minister Zuo need to ask? It's too much."

The corners of Zuorong's mouth were slightly stiff, his eyes darkened quietly, and the corners of his mouth still smirked: "What your mother said is true, I shouldn't ask more questions."

Turning her eyes, she seemed to say unintentionally: "When I saw Concubine Wen today, I was stunned. I didn't expect that the empress is so similar to our empress dowager."
