Lord Lan

Chapter 424 Secrets Hidden in Yan Hongxi's Letter (3)
"Aunt Shi Lan," Ying Si nuzzled at Gongsun Jinbi angrily, "Basically we are all here. Jinbi secretly went to Baichi City to collect wind. I found out later, so I ran into Old Master Chen's carriage and passed by, but when we got there But he was scolded by Lord Su first."

Su Wanlan asked: "Baichi City was considered a dead city back then, why did you suddenly want to go to that kind of place?"

"Sister Wan Lan, we're not the only ones attending Sister Lan's coronation ceremony." Ying Si called out one sister at a time, and then counted with his fingers: "There were quite a lot of people that day, such as Jiaozhou and Yanchi in Quhuangcheng. Lou Bansong from the Kingdom of Yin, Yan Hongxi from the Kingdom of Yin Yue, and our imperial merchant from the Kingdom of Aofeng, but my young master can’t remember his name, who else... Anyway, I can’t count them with my fingers.”

It turns out that Yan Hongxi was already in Baichicheng at that time?Su Wanlan frowned secretly, and turned her eyes back to Su Julan's face with a clear expression.Unexpectedly, after this conversation, it would be dark outside. Seeing that the relationship with Su Julan was broken anyway, Hu Sha refused to leave, at least staying a few nights to talk to Su Julan.

Mu Tuao is no more than Hu Sha who is messing around, and he can't leave Hu Sha here alone, lest no one will watch and cause some trouble.He could only respectfully and politely ask Su Wanlan for a few tents to stay temporarily.

Hu Sha immediately occupied Su Julan's dinner and chatted until before going to bed, and then went back to rest in the tent with more interest.While Hu Sha walked forward, Su Wanlan followed behind, the timing was just right, obviously he was always watching Hu Sha and Su Julan's every move.

Su Julan had just bathed and cleaned, and was sitting on the couch combing her hair. The purple hair that swayed to the ground was shaking slightly, and flashed a lustrous white light in the flickering candlelight.

Su Wanlan clasped the screen, making a slight sound.

Su Julan's dark pupils turned around immediately, raised her hand to brush away the long hair that fell on her temples, and smiled sweetly: "Sister, are you still awake?"

"Aren't you asleep too?" Su Wanlan smiled and walked to her couch and sat down.

Su Julan called: "I'm tired from playing with Hu Sha tonight. She just left, and I was planning to finish brushing my hair and go to sleep. Sister, do you have something to do with me?"

"It's something, it's just that there are so many distinguished guests here suddenly today, so I can't find time to ask you." Su Wanlan took the wooden comb in her hand and combed her hair. Her eyes locked on Su Julan's face, straight into her eyes. "Xiao Lan, you actually know Yan Hongxi, right?"

Su Julan was stunned for a moment, as if after hesitating for a long time, she slowly said: "Yes. I knew each other when I was in Baichicheng."

"He gave you the Dragon Blood Jue?" Su Wanlan asked.

Su Julan nodded again, and said with some embarrassment: "I don't know what he thought at the time, and he didn't have much friendship, and then suddenly asked me to marry him."

Su Wanlan asked, "Does he like you?"

Su Julan shook her head: "I don't know. Anyway, after leaving Baichicheng, we didn't have any contact with him. Even if we often saw him during the Xuanshen competition, we didn't talk to each other. But the father suddenly invited him to his home one day, Call me over to watch him play chess with Yingsi."

Su Wanlan burst into laughter when she heard the words, "My father is checking for you, right? When you play chess alone, your style of chess is just like that person's style of chess. My father always thinks so. Then who wins?"

"The two are tied."

"Did your father tell you anything afterwards?"

"Yes, but I get angry when I think about it." Su Julan said sullenly, "He took two lists of the man's marriage proposals and forced to read them to me. After reading, he directly said that he had chosen Yingsi and Yan Hongxi, but Later he said no, no, he prefers Gongsun Jincoin."

"Huh?" Su Wanlan raised her eyebrows in astonishment, "Father chose the gold coin for you?" Suddenly thinking of the shrewd Gongsun Jin coin, she nodded slightly and said, "The gold coin is indeed not bad."

Su Julan called out sadly: "Elder Sister!"

Su Wanlan said with a smile: "Okay, what's so annoying about marrying a boy and a girl? Besides, it's a good thing if someone likes a girl's family. I was worried about you and Ao Chushang before... Xiao Lan, have you really let go of Ao Chushang?"

"It's not mine, no matter how much you grab it, there are some things that should be let go."

"Have you really figured it out? Or do you actually hate him?"

"Hate?!" Su Julan smiled charmingly, shook her head lightly, and said, "Sister, I always feel that love is not about hate. If there is hatred in my heart, it is because I still love. Maybe he sent me away for Nangongxue back then. Abandonment, I hate it, but when he watched me from the sidelines and was almost shot by the mob, I didn't hate it anymore, because I was completely desperate."

Su Wanlan pulled her into his arms, stroked her neck, and took a deep breath, "Xiao Lan, you have been suffering outside these days."

Her chest was slightly sore, she raised her head to meet Su Wanlan's gaze: "The pain is worth it, this is enough."

Su Wanlan nodded.When she retreated from the tent, Duan Shilan came out from the darkness and asked in a low voice, "How about turning the tide?"

Su Wanlan looked back at the tent with lights turned off, and replied: "Let's go to another place and talk about it in detail." The two of them raised their feet and walked away.The curtain behind him swayed slightly, and then half of the corner was lifted by a finger as thin as a green onion, revealing Su Julan's eyes that looked like a blue pool.

Su Wanlan and Duan Shilan picked up a remote corner of Qinggang, Su Wanlan said: "I asked Xiaolan, she said that they really knew each other in Baichicheng, and Yan Hongxi once asked her to marry her, but Xiaolan Rejected, and the two had no contact afterwards. Later, the Xuanshen competition was held in Pirate City, Yan Hongxi was the envoy of Yin Yueguo, and my father happened to marry Xiaolan, so I invited Yan Hongxi to the mansion to test the game After careful consideration, he didn't want Xiaolan to marry Yan Hongxi."

"My lord is a wise man. He is more aware of the subtle changes in government than we are."

"I believe that my father tested Yan Hongxi only for the sake of Xiaolan's marriage, and has nothing to do with the political situation. My father once went to Baichi City to attend the coronation ceremony of the city lord, and Yan Hongxi was there. The crown prince of Yin Yueguo appeared in Aofengguo's In a deserted city, Yu Qing doesn't agree with reason. My father will definitely send someone to investigate secretly. He probably knows that Yan Hongxi has shown favor to Xiaolan, so he was invited into the mansion to test during the Xuanshen competition. "

"It is said that although the crown prince is very rich in the city, his status, appearance and cultivation attainments are all top-notch. Did the prince pick him?"

"It is said that there are not. Besides Yan Hongxi, there were three other people at that time, Yingsi and Gongsun Jinbi. My father chose Jinbi."

Duan Shilan opened her mouth in amazement, but after a while, she nodded deeply, "The prince really loves his children without any distractions. In terms of ability, talent and appearance, whether it is Yan Hongxi or Ying Si, he can compete with sister Ju Lan." They are a perfect match, but the identities of the two are high and complicated. On the contrary, Jinbi is just greedy for money but obtained in a proper way. Although there is a strong friendship between my younger sister and Jinbi, it is just a friendship, but with Yingsi, it is like a son or daughter and enemy."
