Chapter 518

Su Ran bent down to pick up the imperial decree, and she walked slowly to his side.

"You should have expected him to do this," she said softly.

Li Er remained silent with a cold face.

Su Ran put down the imperial decree casually, and then embraced his arms with both hands. "Didn't you say so? You just want to have a clear conscience. Since this is the case, you have done everything you can. How the emperor responds is his business. After all, this country belongs to him."

"The country does not belong to him, it belongs to the people of the world!" Li Er suddenly turned his head and roared, "This is the country that Gaozu worked hard for many years, and it was also the country that my great-grandfather and grandfather worked hard for many years! How many years, the country has only just stabilized, and he has already begun to eliminate dissidents! Moreover, what does he mean by these words? He keeps praising me for being loyal to the emperor, patriotic, and far-sighted, but in fact he is mocking me for not being in the position but planning for his own affairs. Said that I care too much! And I care so much, but not really for the good of this country, but just to get more benefits for myself! So now, he gave Sister Zhu a title to appease me and make me feel better. I don't want to make trouble anymore, it's enough to be the king of Zhenxi in the capital at his mercy! He's slandering me! This is embarrassing me in public!"

"Don't be angry! If you are angry, you are in the way of the emperor. Didn't he just want everyone to know that you are a person who bait for fame? You reacted just now, and you will definitely be said to be the center of rumors." I’ve become angry from embarrassment.” Su Ran persuaded him softly, “Besides, today is Sister Zhu’s [-]th birthday feast, which is a great joy for our family. He deliberately sent this edict at this time, not because he wanted us not to Are you happy? Then let's show him even more joy. After all, it's really a great thing for Sister Zhu to get a title!"

Li Er took a deep breath, and gradually suppressed the anger all over his body.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have gotten angry with you just now." He apologized to her in a deep voice.

Su Ran shook her head. "Besides me, who else can you get angry with? Now that you have vented your anger, don't think about it anymore, let's get out!"

Li Er nodded and immediately grabbed her hand.

When the couple reappeared in front of people, Li Er was already as calm and calm as usual.This disappointed many people who were waiting to see the excitement.

"Sister, brother-in-law, is he alright?" Sister Liu rushed up to ask.

She arrived in the capital with Brother Quan and his wife only two days ago.Because of the long-distance travel and unfamiliarity with this place, and Su Ran and the others are also busy preparing the centenary banquet for their children, the two sides have not had a good conversation yet.

Su Ran shook her head. "fine."

Sister Liu felt relieved.

The couple went out, Li Er went to the front as usual to entertain the male guests, Su Ran went to the female guests, and saw Huainan Wang Shizi concubine walking slowly.

"Princess Zhenxi, congratulations. I just met the little county lord. She is white and fat, and she doesn't look like a premature child at all. I think she will grow up healthy and healthy like her older brothers and sisters in the future. "She spoke to Su Ran with a smile.

Su Ran couldn't help staring into her eyes for a long time.

Huainan Wang Shizi smiled slightly: "Princess Zhenxi, why are you looking at me like this? I looked in the mirror several times before going out, and there is nothing strange about me!"

"A strange heart, isn't it stranger than anything else?" Su Ran said softly.

Huainan Wang Shizi covered her lips and smiled. "Princess Zhenxi, you really know how to joke. Who in this world doesn't have something weird in their hearts?"

"You know that's not what I'm talking about." Su Ran's voice turned cold.

Princess Huainan blinked. "Then what do you mean?"

Su Ran looked at her again without saying a word, and the concubine of Prince Huainan looked even more innocent.

This person looks gentle and soft and weak, but his mind is very cunning.This is the first time I have dealt with her?But this time, like every time before, there was nothing he could do about her.Su Ran sighed secretly in her heart, she was really frustrated.

It's just that this time she didn't intend to let this person go so quickly. "It's rare for you to come here again. I still have a lot to say to you. But I'm not free now, so I would like to trouble you and the prince to stay at my house for a while, so that we can talk again." She said softly explain.

"Okay!" Huainan Prince Concubine agreed without hesitation.

There is nothing to say about the rest of the centenary banquet.This procedure has long been established in the capital, and with Mrs. Qu's support from inside and outside, everything is arranged properly without Su Ran's troubles.But, how many of these visitors are really happy for them?I think should not be!The relationship between people is just to maintain the relationship of mutual interests.Thinking about it is actually very boring.

No matter how grand the banquet in front of him was, Su Ran still felt that it was not as lively as the full moon wine they had held for Brother Zhuang and the others in the village.Anyway, the folks who came to drink wedding wine sincerely congratulated them.

After the banquet was over, the guests left one after another.

Huainan Prince's concubine and his son really stayed.

And King Rong, he was also left behind by Li Er.

Back in the backyard, his eyes flashed when he saw the Huainan Wang Shizi and his wife who were already standing beside Su Ran.

"Princess, you haven't had enough fun, do you want us to stay and have fun with you again?" He asked with a smile.

Su Ran glanced at him lightly, and she suddenly asked, "What's the relationship between you?"

"It's just friends!" King Rong happily embraced Huainan Wang Shizi's shoulders, "We have been good friends for many years, don't you think so?"

"Yes." Prince Huainan nodded.

"I don't believe it." Su Ran shook her head.

"Then what kind of relationship do you think we should have?" King Rong asked her back.

"I don't know." Su Ran said softly, "If I had to know, I wouldn't try to figure it out."

"That's why you think too much! What kind of relationship can there be between us? It's just a sympathy caused by sympathy!" King Rong said hurriedly.

It is indeed possible for him to use this to fool others, but Su Ran doesn't believe it.

King Rong's parents died, and he was alone in the capital.The prince of Huainan was not much better. Although his parents were with him, he was sent to the capital when he was only five or six years old because of the emperor's serious suspicion.To put it more bluntly, the queen mother missed her grandson and was reluctant to let him leave her knees.But in fact, the emperor clearly kept him as a hostage to control Huainan King and not allow him to rebel.

Huainan Wang's son's life experience is indeed pitiful, but there are many sons in the capital who are left as hostages like this, why did he get along with this person?

However, no matter how Su Ran asked, they just didn't change their words and insisted on that.

"Princess." At this time, Biyu suddenly came to Su Ran holding a small box, "This is a gift from outside, but I don't know who gave it. It was given to you, but it didn’t say who gave it to you. The housekeeper couldn’t make up his mind, so he sent it here for you to have a look first.”

"Bring it!" Su Ran nodded, and Biyu handed over the box.

Su Ran reached out to open the box.

"Wait!"

But when King Rong saw this, he hurried forward, trying to snatch the box away.

Su Ran turned around and let him miss.Immediately, her hands opened the box.

drink!
As soon as the box was opened, Su Ran couldn't help gasping when she saw what was inside, and the blood on her face faded.

I saw two dolls lying in the box.The dolls are placed face down, with their backs facing people.There are a few thin needles inserted into the backs of these two dolls, and a small note is just fixed under the needles, and a line of words is written on the note in small letters.Taking a closer look, this is clearly her birth date!
In an instant, Su Ran felt a stabbing pain in her chest, as if those few thin needles pierced her heart from her back.

When King Rong saw her reaction, his expression changed drastically.He quickly snatched the box out of her hands, and then threw it to Huainan Wang Shizi: "This thing is in your hands, you get rid of it for me!"

Prince Huainan's son lowered his head and saw the contents in the box, his face immediately sank.

"Okay, got it!" Quickly closed the box, he turned and left.

And the moment Prince Huainan turned around, Su Ran grabbed King Rong's hand. "Now, why don't you tell me the truth?"

The boy was taken aback. "Are you all right?"

"Of course I'm fine." Su Ran straightened up, "Do you think the housekeeper will bring this kind of thing to me without looking at it first?"

The young man froze for a moment, then smiled wryly. "That's right, if the butler doesn't even have this ability, how can you keep him until now? I was careless."

"No, if you care about it, you will be in chaos." Su Ran said in a deep voice, "Now, how long do you think you can hide from me?"

"Sister..." The boy immediately smiled softly, and he rubbed against Su Ran lightly, "It's really not a big deal. Okay, okay, I admit, I'm looking for them to help you regain your soul." I helped. It is also because of this that the relationship between us is better than others."

"Then what did you pay?" Su Ran was most concerned about this.
