Fortunate Young Gentleman

The smile on Tangning's face froze, then she smiled bitterly and said, "Don't make trouble..."

Li Tianlan looked at Xiaoxiao and asked, "Who is this person? Do you know Xiaoxiao?"

Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue and wisely did not get involved in the dispute between the two of them.

Li Tianlan didn't even look at Tangning. He held her little hand and said, "Go in first..."

Seeing the two of them walking in hand in hand, Tang Ning sighed. His hunch was correct. This aunt was indeed angry, and very angry. This time, things would not go as smoothly as he imagined.

The old beggar glanced at him and whispered: "You deserve it!"

Tangning did not refute, because he also felt that he deserved it, so he could only shake his head and follow them in.

In the princess's mansion, Li Tianlan was very enthusiastic about Xiaoxiao and treated Tangning like nothing, without even looking at him.

Xiaoxiao winked at Tangning, then excused herself from the long journey and went back to her room to rest.

Lao Zheng also left for the same reason. Only the old beggar sat there without blinking, holding up a teapot, drinking like a thirsty man, without any intention of leaving.

Tangning glanced at the old beggar and asked, "Aren't you sleepy?"

"I'm not sleepy, just a little thirsty." The old beggar shook his head, sat firmly on the chair, and said, "This tea is good, let me bring two more pots..."

When he finished speaking, Xiaoxiao, who had left, came back again, took his arm and said, "Master, I have a few questions to ask you. Let's come out and talk..."

The old beggar was dragged out by Xiaosheng. Tangning walked over and closed the door. Then she walked up to Li Tianlan and said with an apology, "Lan Lan, it's all my fault for making you wait for so long..."

Li Tianlan looked away and said, "I don't know you, don't call me that."

Tangning grabbed her hand and said, "If you feel uncomfortable, just hit me a few times..."

Li Tianlan caught his hand and shook it symbolically, and stopped struggling.

Tangning took advantage of the situation and locked her fingers tightly. Li Tianlan's body trembled, but he stubbornly turned his head away.

This made Tangning feel happy. Although she was still angry, it was obviously much better than when she just pretended not to recognize her.

Tangning quickly explained while the iron was hot: "I originally planned to come here to find you a year ago, but my mother and cousin encountered danger in the Western Regions. It took me three months to meet them..."

"If it was just like this, you should have gone to Chu State nine months ago." There was still some resentment in her voice, but it was much better than before.

"There are some things that I didn't expect." Tangning shook her head and said, "After meeting my mother and cousin, I was delayed in the Western Region for a long time because of some things. When I returned, it was already the end of the year."

Li Tianlan snorted coldly and said: "At that time, the Western Region was in chaos, and Xiaowan was annexing Dayue Wusun. Can you do anything there to help Xiaowan unify the Western Region?"

Tangning nodded and said, "I am unifying the Western Region, but I am not helping Xiaowan, because Xiaowan is our Xiaowan, I am just handling our family affairs."

Li Tianlan finally looked back at him and said in shock: "Our Xiaowan?"

Tang Ning saw this face that she hadn't seen for a long time. Although it was a little haggard, it was still beautiful, and she felt a little distracted for a moment.

It wasn't until Li Tianlan coughed that he came back to his senses and explained: "There is something I haven't had time to tell you yet. I am now the leader of Xiaowan Kingdom, and the entire Western Region is now controlled by Xiaowan..."

Li Tianlan showed extreme surprise on his face and asked, "How did you become the leader of Xiaowan Kingdom?"

Tangning shook her head and said, "This matter is a long story. Let's talk about it slowly in the future."

Thinking of something, a bright light suddenly flashed across Li Tianlan's mind, and he asked, "Did you also arrange Envoy Xiaowan's marriage proposal?"

Tangning sighed and said, "You are the princess of Chu. If I didn't have a good identity, your father wouldn't marry you to me..."

After hearing these words, the expression on her face softened slightly, but she still snorted softly and said: "I'm afraid you made a wrong calculation. My father has already rejected Xiaowan's marriage proposal..."

Tangning looked at her and said, "So this matter requires your cooperation. If you say you are willing, he will not go against your decision..."

Thinking of the pain of missing her in the past four years, Li Tianlan felt a sense of grievance in his heart. He glared at Tang Ning and said, "I won't help you with this matter. Go and talk to your father yourself." …”

Tang Ning was complaining in her heart. Four years ago, when her father was still King Xin, she already disliked him. Tang Ning could be sure that no matter what his identity was, it could not change the fact that he stole his father-in-law's caring little cotton-padded jacket. Nor will his impression of himself change.

Li Tianlan glanced at him and said, "You and I will go into the palace to see my father now..."

Although Tang Ning was not ready yet, how could she dare to say no at this time, so she had no choice but to follow her into the Chu Palace.

In a certain hall of the palace, Emperor Chu looked at Li Tianlan who walked in, with a smile on his face and said: "Lan Lan came just in time. Father, I have something to tell you. Just now, the envoys from the Western Regions wanted to propose marriage on behalf of their king." , Father has already rejected it for you..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw another figure walking in behind Li Tianlan.

After seeing who was coming, he was stunned for a moment, then he became furious, pointed at Tang Ning, and shouted: "Come, arrest this man for me!"

Tang Ning stood there, bowed helplessly, and said: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

More than ten guards had already run in, Li Tianlan waved at them, and said: "It's okay, you can go out."

His Majesty and the princess gave different orders, and several people were stunned in place, looking at the Emperor Chu. The Emperor Chu looked at Li Tianlan, and finally waved his hand and said: "Forget it, you can go down first."

Li Tianlan looked at Tang Ning, and the meaning was very clear.

She completely handed this matter over to herself. Tang Ning had a headache, but she still bit the bullet and looked at the Emperor Chu and said: "Lanlan and I are in love, I hope Your Majesty will fulfill it."

Li Tianlan blushed, secretly glared at him, but did not refute, just stood aside quietly

The King of Chu saw his daughter's expression, sighed inwardly, then regained his composure and said, "Lanlan, go out first. I have a few words to say to him alone."

Li Tianlan looked at him, then at Tang Ning, and turned to walk out.

After she walked out of the hall, the King of Chu looked at Tang Ning fiercely and said sternly, "You are so brave!"

As he finished speaking, an invisible momentum swept towards Tang Ning.

Fortunately, Tang Ning has seen a lot of big battles in the past few years. His expression remained unchanged. He said, "The relationship between me and Lanlan is based on love and ends with courtesy. How can it be said to be bold?"

The King of Chu said coldly, "You already have a wife, but you still dare to mess with my daughter. Isn't that bold?"

He looked at Tang Ning with a sharp gaze. Without waiting for his answer, he changed his tone and said, "However, I can see that Lanlan likes you. I don't want to make her sad. As long as you are willing to divorce your wives and concubines at home and treat her wholeheartedly in the future, I will not care about your past. What do you think?"

Tang Ning raised his head, looked straight at him, and shook his head, saying, "This is impossible."

"Outrageous!" The King of Chu was furious when he heard this, "Don't think Relying on Lanlan's love, you can do whatever you want. Let me tell you, just now, the Western Region envoys have asked me for marriage. Do you believe that I will agree to them immediately? "

Tang Ning was stunned at first, then his face turned pale, he covered his chest, and trembled, saying: "How can you do this..."

The King of Chu saw his reaction, a smile appeared on his face, and said: "Think about what I said just now, otherwise, I will summon the Western Region envoys to the palace now..."

"Even if you use this as a threat, I will not give in." Tang Ning looked at him and gritted his teeth and said: "It is impossible for me to abandon my wife and children!"

The King of Chu was furious: "Don't think I dare not!"

Tang Ning looked straight at him and said: "Then you call..."
