Chapter 440 Seeking Will
Chapter 440 Obtaining Will

The simple and tall door was pushed open by four people, making a heavy and ancient sound.

Along with the light and shadow, it shone into the dim Nuo Dachao Hall.

An Ran crossed the high threshold, stepped inside, and within two steps, the door behind her closed again.

The hall fell into darkness.

This is the place where the ministers of the Xiangtian Empire went to court in the early days, supported by four mahogany pillars, only An Ran stood here alone, looking very empty and insignificant.

No sound was made all the time, and his eyes kept observing every corner of the court.

Until a voice came from the front,
"Don't look at it, there is no agency."

An Ran raised her eyes, and there was a throne in front of her, exuding bright colors, representing the supreme power and prestige.

It's just that the voice didn't come from the dragon chair, but stepped on the red steps of the dragon chair.

That person sat there so carelessly, holding a jug of wine in one hand and a bowl in the other.

She was dressed in a red brocade robe with a real dragon pattern embroidered on the front of her chest. Although her every move was impolite, it exuded a noble air.

Looking up, I finally saw that handsome face that was full of anger.

High nose bridge, thin lips, gilded eyes, and a fairness that every woman would be jealous of.

He is really as handsome as in the legend, like a god descending from the earth.

But what really surprised An Ran was that it was him!
Probably this face, but anyone who has seen it, even if it is just a glimpse, will never forget it, just like when this person tore off the human skin mask when he was training in the field at that time.

Enron lost his voice
"It's you!"

Then he regretted his carelessness again.

How many people in this world can grow up to be so handsome?

Besides, this person had already told me that his name was Jing Rui.

But how could she have thought that Jingrui was the current Xiangtian Jingrui? !
She couldn't help feeling that all these evildoers were born in the royal family one by one, and she didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

Xiang Tianjingrui looked at An Ran with surprised or even shocked eyes, and his face was a little unhappy.
"Why, surprised?"

He hated people staring at his face, and he hated people showing shocking eyes like this, because it made him feel like a different kind.

An Ran came back to her senses after listening to his words, smiled, frankly
"I've never felt jealous of such an evil person as His Highness Jingxuan, but it's the second time I've met His Highness Jingrui, and I still can't restrain my desire to take it for myself."

The words were joking, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere.

Then I heard bursts of smiles coming from Xiang Tianjingrui's mouth, it was a real smile.

"Even though I haven't seen him for several months, Yang Anran still surprises me."

With a decent smile on An Ran's face, she gave a light salute

"I don't know why His Highness called the little girl here?"

Xiang Tianjingrui looked directly at her with his eyes, and motioned for her to come forward without waving.

An Ran hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped forward, squatted down, looked at the wine jar in Xiang Tianjingrui's hand, and said

"Could it be that His Highness specially asked me to come here for a drink?"

Xiang Tianjingrui poured out a bowl from the jar and handed it to An Ran,
"Even if it's drinking, you need to find someone with the same temperament. Although you and I have met once, I am very impressed."

An Ran took it, raised her eyebrows,
"Although An Ran is flattered by what His Highness said, An Ran can't drink this wine."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and took a sip lightly.

The aroma of wine permeates between the lips and teeth, and there is also a faint scent of osmanthus, which slowly fills the mouth after drinking.

Although she doesn't know how to taste wine, she understands that the wine in Xiang Tianjingrui's hand is the best.

"hahahahahahahahahahaha"

A burst of laughter came from Xiang Tianjingrui's mouth again, and his eyes looked at An Ran with burning brilliance.

"I have seen a lot of women, enchanting, pure, charming, stubborn, docile, exquisite and know how to advance and retreat, but you, I always feel a little different, just like when I saw you for the first time like that."

An Ran smiled, maybe it was the effect of the wine, which made her feel a little more relaxed, and her cheeks were also full of blush.

road

"I have seen many men in An Ran, handsome, evil, gentle, honest, and... awkward, His Highness is a rare man with true temperament, and he does not hide it at all, just like the first time An Ran met As it was when His Highness."

After saying this, Xiang Tianjingrui was stunned again, accompanied by the sound of hearty laughter.

It seemed that he was very happy today, and it was also rare that he had such a good time.

After the joke, I also started to get down to business.

An Ran took another sip of the wine in the bowl

Then listen to Xiang Tianjing Ruidao

"That time you saved my life in the wild. My Highness never owes others anything. If you have any requests, you can ask them."

An Ran was taken aback for a moment, resting her chin with her palm, looked at Xiang Tian Jingrui, and said slowly
"That incident was just a matter of chance, I have already forgotten, but since His Highness is so sincere, then An Ran will not be polite."

The light in Xiang Tianjingrui's eyes was even brighter, and he nodded with a smile.

He likes to talk to her, and he obviously says respectful words, but in fact he is not polite at all.

An Ran stood up, put down the wine in her hand, and saluted the man sitting on the steps.

Then stood up and said slowly
"Your Majesty once ordered Jiu Ruijin from Jiurui Mansion to marry the daughter of Situ Mansion, Situ Ling. Originally, this had nothing to do with me and should be a blessing, but..."

An Ran said with a helpless and troubled look on her face.

"However, Situ Zhuofei, the patriarch of the Jiurui Mansion, asked His Majesty for another decree, asking me to marry Jiu Ruijin as a concubine. If I don't want to, I will be forced to marry him. I have my own heart. In no mood."

Listening to An Ran's words, Xiang Tianjingrui raised his eyebrows.

Suddenly, he remembered that indifferent and powerful man who had been by An Ran's side during field training, with a wry smile flashing on his handsome face.
"So, An Ran's request is for His Highness to cancel this wedding?"

An Ran smiled, still gentle

"An Ran knows that the decree was not made by His Majesty, but by the Eldest Prince to win over the four major families. His Highness is about to enthroned as Emperor. This matter is nothing more than His Majesty's effort, and I hope His Highness will fulfill it."

Every word was so sincere that Xiang Tianjingrui couldn't even say the words of rejection.

Xiang Tianjingrui, who was sitting on the steps, was silent for a while, stood up, and walked towards the shining dragon chair.

But a few strokes, a jade seal, An Ran looked up at the man who was writing something.

With a smile, there is more in the smile... a sigh of relief, it will be a few days before Qingcang comes back, so this matter has subsided, right? !
