"Your Highness is really clever! How did you know that His Highness the Crown Prince sent someone to deliver a message today?"
Lingyuan said, taking out the letter specially sent by Li Yuze from her arms.
Different from previous invitations, this time Li Yuze sent an envelope containing only a bouquet of plum blossoms in order to ease the conflict between himself and Li Huang.
It was the queen's favorite flower during her lifetime.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, what do you mean by this?"
"He was reminding me not to forget the anniversary of my mother's death."
"Reminder? In the two years since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been away from Shengjing, has His Royal Highness the Princess ever forgotten to pay homage?" Ling Yuanyi bit her lip, looking even more aggrieved than Li Huang.
Li Huang couldn't help laughing and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter."
Then she handed the invitation to her and said with a smile: "Take it and burn it."
"yes."
Lingyuan didn't hesitate, and with a face full of resentment, she took the invitation and left the dormitory.
Li Huang got up from the bed, put on his fox fur cloak and walked to the mirror.
The person in the mirror is pretty and pretty, and she is the eldest princess who combines glory and wealth.
Sometimes looking at this face, she couldn't even tell where was reality and where was dream.
Suddenly, A Yuan's helpless voice of persuasion came from outside the courtyard: "Master Luo, can't you be more at ease? You have eaten all the snacks that I prepared for His Highness."
"It's just a few snacks. Even if I eat it, my cousin won't blame me."
"Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is kind-hearted, so naturally she won't blame you. Mr. Ke Luo is a man, how can he compete with a woman for cakes? If the news spreads, won't you laugh at others?"
Luo Mingchuan suddenly understood, raised his head hurriedly, stuffed the half-eaten snack back in his hand, and said seriously: "I will give you one hundred taels of silver. If anyone asks who ate the pastry, just say it was a woman.
of."
"What?"
A Yuan thought she heard wrongly.
Just listen to Luo Mingchuan repeat: "As long as you don't tell me, and I don't tell you, how will outsiders know whether the person who stole the pastries is a man or a woman? They won't associate it with me."
"Master Luo, are you okay with your mind? Is there anyone else in the capital who has doubts about your gender?"
"Of course not." Luo Mingchuan thought of the silver-masked man he met in the princess's mansion in the past two days, and suddenly frowned in pain: "But why do I feel that when I meet that pretty face, I act like an angry little daughter-in-law?
?”
Ah Yuan argued: "You're talking nonsense, Guard Ning is a good person!"
"A good person? I have never seen a good person with such a vicious look."
"you you……"
"However, his appearance is indeed pretty good, just a little bit worse than this young master."
Ah Yuan couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing.
Luo Mingchuan became angry, clenched his fists and asked: "Why are you laughing? Is what I said wrong?"
"Shut up! Don't laugh!"
When Li Huang came out, he happened to see this scene.
Luo Mingchuan was very close to her when he was young, but his uncle was busy with government affairs and there was no matron in the house, so his control over Luo Mingchuan became much lax.
Concubine Luo Guifei had spent a lot of time trying to win over him in the past few years.
Now that he has finally been brought up to have such a lack of ambition and incompetent character, he must be secretly enjoying himself behind the scenes.
Seeing Li Huang coming out, Luo Mingchuan took two steps back and raised his hand to promise: "Cousin, I have finished practicing today's skills. I promise I am not lazy!"
Li Huang stepped forward and smiled slightly: "I know that Mingchuan is the most obedient."
"Cousin, can you stop laughing like that? I'm afraid..."
"Mingchuan, how about you do something for me?"
Li Huang ordered, how dare Luo Mingchuan refuse to agree.
He hadn't seen his cousin's smiling face in many years. Today, she suddenly smiled like this. It was either a stroke or she was hurt by love and lost her mind.
However, Luo Mingchuan never dreamed that what Li Huang told him was to find wood?
He, the most dignified playboy in Shengjing, was actually arranged to do such a thing?
However, Li Huang stood firm and Luo Mingchuan did not dare to refute, so he could only go about his errands dejectedly.
Li Huang narrowed his eyes, and a cold feeling passed through his eyes.
Shengjing Long Street is so prosperous.
The lights in Yunwai Tower were brightly lit today. I heard that someone had bet on the ancestral jade stone in their family. As a result, the owner of Yunwai Tower won and lost the ancestral home.
The top floor of the seventh floor.
After the maid brought some tea, she withdrew.
Not long after, Xiao Yunlan came up from downstairs with a sad face.
As soon as he sat down, Mo Jingzhan stretched out his hand and coldly said two words: "Things."
"Your Majesty, I haven't even warmed myself up yet, and you want to snatch it away from me?"
"You're a lonely person, so what's the use of this thing!"
"It sounds like you are married."
Xiao Yunlan pouted and played with the jade he just won in his hand.
Jade carving is now popular in Shengjing, but it is not easy to find a good piece of jade. Today's jade is the best choice in terms of texture and color.
He went back and found someone to carve out the jade and put it as a decoration in Yunwai Tower.
However, before Xiao Yunlan's idea could take shape, he heard Mo Jingzhan sneer coldly: "My son has an engagement."
"What?" Xiao Yunlan exclaimed, almost smashing the jade in his hand.
He quickly put down the things in his hands and came to Mo Jingzhan eagerly: "The prince's fiancée, who is she from?"
"She is not a daughter of a noble family."
"Ah?" Xiao Yunlan's eyes widened in surprise again, and his mind was running rapidly.
Suddenly, he slapped his forehead and wailed in his heart: It's over!
The prince must have been seduced by some foxy girl!
No wonder, in recent years, so many daughters from famous families have come to visit and even the princes have looked down upon her!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yunlan carefully probed: "What about this girl's character and appearance?"
Mo Jingzhan held his head with one hand, thinking deeply.
After a long while, he slowly spoke, his tone full of doting: "She is the most beautiful and proud woman in the world. Her character is one of a kind, and her appearance... I just like her."
"..."
Xiao Yunlan looked shocked.
He never dreamed that his eldest son would actually have a woman he could catch his eye with!
But that's fine, this girl sounds pretty good, at least much better than the one from the eldest princess's mansion.
Mo Jingzhan collected his thoughts, looked back at the jade on the table, and ordered: "Find someone to polish it into a few marbles. I will pick it up in three days."
"Well, okay, polish it into marbles...what?!"
Xiao Yunlan was about to agree when he suddenly realized what Mo Jingzhan said and his whole body turned to stone.
The jade he had worked so hard to win was polished into beads, not to mention being carved into some kind of dragon, elephant, and Taiping. What a disgrace to the jade world!
However, feeling depressed, Xiao Yunlan let out a long sigh and returned to the topic: "Tomorrow, the prince will go to Huguo Temple to offer sacrifices. The opportunity is rare, why don't we plan it secretly?"
"No." Mo Jingzhan refused.
Xiao Yunlan was speechless and asked with a grimace: "Why can't it work again? Your Majesty, we haven't taken any action since the prince returned to the capital. Now the opportunity is rare..."
"The eldest princess is very talented. If something unexpected happens during the sacrifice, with her methods, it will not be difficult to find out some clues." In fact, what he was more afraid of was getting Li Huang involved.
With her temperament, if she really saw something happen to Li Yuze in front of her, she would not stand idly by.
He couldn't and didn't want to involve her.
Xiao Yunlan sighed and sighed about life: "What does the prince mean?"
