Fortunate Young Gentleman

Chapter 378: Honglu Temple Banquet

Tangning had already discovered King Xin's dislike of him. How could he make him and Li Tianlan become brothers and sisters for no reason? The purpose must be impure.

Tang Ning raised her hand and said politely: "The prince loves me so much. The princess has a body of gold. How can Tang Ning be so virtuous and capable? She doesn't dare to call her brother or sister."

"No matter what status you have, it's just a cloud." King Xin waved his hand and said, "Lanlan was kind to you once, and you saved us again and again. This is all fate. The princess is also very fond of you." Appreciate it, why don't you marry Jinlan today..."

"I disagree."

Before Tang Ning could speak, Li Tianlan said something, turned around and walked out of the study.

"I didn't mean that. Your Majesty, it's better not to mention it again in the future." Tangning cupped her hands and followed her out.

King Xin clenched his fist, but in the end he just waved it heavily.

Tangning followed Li Tianlan and said as she walked, "Your old man is really, inexplicably, sworn sworn brother..."

Li Tianlan walked in front and asked casually without continuing the topic: "When will you return to Chen Country?"

Tang Ning said, "Wait until the prince is deposed."

"What if the prince will not be deposed?"

"Then we have to go." Tangning thought for a moment, looked at her and asked, "Do you want to go with us?"

Li Tianlan said: "Wherever my father and mother are, I will be there."

Tang Ning still believed that the prince would be deposed. King Xin, a bad old man, was so bad. How could the stupid prince of Chu State be able to outplay him?

Li Tianlan took two steps forward, then looked back at him and asked, "Why did you reject my father just now?"

"You said we would become brothers and sisters with you?" Tangning shook her head and said, "Why do I need so many sisters..."

He already has cousin Tang Shui and sister Su Meiqian. Xiaoxiao calls him brother, Fang Xiaoyue calls him brother Tangning, Zhao Man calls him good brother when there is no one around, and Xiaoxiao's title of "Brother Xiaoning" has not changed yet. Coming here would sometimes make him feel full of guilt. Why would he need another sister?

At such a sensitive time, it was really strange that King Xin called him over for this matter.

He didn't even get a cup of tea in the palace today, so he planned to go back to Jinxiu Palace.

When I walked to the door, I thought of something. I turned to look at Li Tianlan and said, "Why don't we go out to eat noodles? It's your turn to treat me today..."

At a small street shop, Tang Ning walked into the shop and turned around and said, "Old lady, please have two bowls of noodles."

The old noodle seller's business has always been very good, and now it's dinner time. There are all the seats outside, but there is only one table inside.

There were three people sitting at the innermost table, with Tang Ning and Li Tianlan sitting on the outside.

"Second brother, the noodles cooked by this old woman are delicious. You must try them later..."

Hearing a familiar voice, Tang Ning looked over and saw Wanyan Yan, dressed as a Han Chinese, talking excitedly to a young man.

The dress she was wearing was one that Zhao Man had eliminated, and the beads on her hair were also unwanted by Zhao Man. She and Zhao Man had similar builds, and the clothes fit him perfectly.

In addition to Zhao Man and the young man, the middle-aged woman was also there.

After the two sat down, the people inside naturally discovered them.

When the young man glanced at Li Tianlan, he paused for a moment. When Wan Yanyan saw Tang Ning, she almost jumped up and asked, "Why are you here!"

Tang Ning glanced at her and said calmly: "This is not owned by your family. Can't I just eat a bowl of noodles?"

Li Tianlan looked at him and asked, "Friend?"

"Who is his friend!" Wan Yanyan sat down again, glanced at him, and said, "You'd better pray that you don't fall into my hands in the future!"

"Enemies." Tangning glanced at her, then looked at Li Tianlan and explained, "They are from the grasslands. They tried to break up the marriage on the way, and I caught them once."

Wan Yanyan stood up angrily, patted the table, and said: "Whoever you caught, I stood up for myself. If it weren't for your conspiracy... In short, you Han people are so crafty! "

Li Tianlan said: "She speaks Chinese very well."

As a little barbarian girl from the prairie, Wan Yanyan's Chinese is indeed very good, but it depends on who taught her.

Although she speaks Chinese well, she doesn't understand the etiquette and rules of the Han people at all. Once a teacher, a lifelong father. Even if their master-disciple relationship only lasts for half a day, they are still teachers for half a day. She should treat him Be a little more polite, rather than start chattering to the young man in prairie dialect, and look at him with contempt from time to time, which you can guess is not a good thing.

Tangning looked at her, moved her lips, and said silently, "Is your butt itchy again?"

Wan Yanyan looked at him with confusion and asked, "What did you say?"

Tangning turned her head and ignored her.

"Here comes the noodles." The old woman brought two bowls of noodles over. Li Tianlan handed him a pair of chopsticks and asked, "What's wrong with her butt?"

"Cough, cough!" Tangning choked on a mouthful of noodles and covered her mouth, saying, "Today's noodles have too much pepper..."

Although she came late, the old woman served them first.

Wan Yanyan complained a few times about this, but was helpless. The young man opposite looked at her and asked, "Is he an envoy of the Chen State?"

Wan Yanyan gritted her teeth and said, "Among the envoys of Chen State, he is the worst!"

The young man held a folding fan and said, "Such a young envoy is rare."

The middle-aged woman beside the two looked at Tang Ning, her eyes flickering slightly.

After a while, Tang Ning and Li Tianlan finished their noodles, put a piece of silver on the table, and stepped on a small beetle that crawled to his feet, then looked at Li Tianlan and said, "Let's go."

The two left the store, and the middle-aged woman looked at the insect corpse on the ground, her face changed slightly.

Tang Ning stood on the street and looked back at the store.

Li Tianlan turned his head to look at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tang Ning looked at her and warned, "Be careful when you meet that middle-aged woman in the future."

Li Tianlan nodded and said, "She is good at martial arts."

"Not only that, she also knows the art of poison and witchcraft." Tang Ning shook her head and said, "Don't let her get close to you."

Tang Ning didn't know how good the middle-aged woman was at martial arts, but he knew that her poison skills were not ordinary, and she seemed to know some witchcraft. In his impression, only Su Mei and the omnipotent old beggar knew this kind of evil thing.

It is easy to dodge an open spear, but it is difficult to guard against an arrow from the dark. If ordinary people don't know witchcraft, even masters are likely to be hit.

Li Tianlan frowned and asked, "Poison technique?"

"It's hard to explain in one or two sentences." Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "Will you go to the banquet at the Honglu Temple tomorrow?"

Li Tianlan nodded and said, "My father will go tomorrow, and I will go with him."

Tang Ning waved and said, "See you tomorrow."

...

The banquet at the Honglu Temple was for the envoys of the State of Chen and the envoys of the grassland. As a princess, Zhao Man did not need to attend.

And in order to show that the State of Chu attaches great importance to the envoys of the two countries, Prince Xin will also be present today.

"This is the regent of my Chu State, Prince Xin, and this is Princess Changning." The Minister of the Honglu Temple first introduced Prince Xin and Li Tianlan to everyone, and then looked down and introduced: "Prince, Princess, this is Mr. Tang, the marriage envoy of Chen State, and this is the second prince of Wanyan tribe..."

After the introduction, another official bowed and said: "All envoys have come from afar, and the Honglu Temple is receiving you by the imperial order. Please take a seat..."

Sitting at the top are Prince Xin and Li Tianlan, and the two rows on the left and right are the envoys of Chen State and the grassland envoys respectively.

The Chu State respects the left, so the envoys of Chen State are on the left, and Tang Ning and Lu Teng sit in the front.

Across from them are the grassland people, led by the young man and Wanyan Yan who I met yesterday. Tang Ning is facing Wanyan Yan, and when he looks up, he sees her staring at him unkindly.
