Tang Ning had already discovered King Xin's dislike of him. How could he let 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, but the princess has a rich body. How can Tang Ning be so virtuous and capable? She doesn't dare to call her brother or sister."
"Every status and status are just clouds." King Xin waved his hand and said: "Lanlan was kind to you once, and you saved us again and again. This is all fate, and 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." Tang Ning 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, and Zhao Man calls him good brother when there is no one around. Xiaoxiao's title of "Brother Xiaoning" has not changed yet.
Coming here sometimes makes him feel full of guilt. Why do you 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 at the palace today, so he planned to go back to the Splendid 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 noticed 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." Tang Ning glanced at her, then looked at Li Tianlan, and explained: "They are from the grassland. They tried to destroy the marriage on the road, and I caught them."
Wan Yanyan stood up angrily again, 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 full of scheming!
"
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 half-day teachers. She should treat him
Be a little more polite, instead of starting to chatter to the young man in prairie dialect, and look at him with contempt from time to time, which I 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. 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 arrived late, the old lady 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 the 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 the folding fan and said: "Such a young envoy is rare."
The middle-aged woman next to them glanced at Tang Ning, her eyes flashing slightly.
After a while, Tang Ning and Li Tianlan finished eating the noodles, put a piece of broken silver on the table, and trampled a small beetle that crawled to his feet. Then they looked at Li Tianlan and said, "Let's go."
The two left the shop. The middle-aged woman looked at the insect corpses on the ground, her expression slightly changed.
Tangning stood on the street and looked back at the shop.
Li Tianlan turned his head and looked 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 has good martial arts skills."
"Not only that, she also knows how to use poisonous poison." Tang Ning shook her head and said, "Don't let her get close."
Tang Ning didn't know much about the middle-aged woman's martial arts skills, but he did know that this person's poison skills were extraordinary, and she seemed to know some voodoo skills. In his impression, only Su Mei and Wu had such evil skills.
The old beggar understands what he cannot.
It is easy to avoid open spears, but difficult to guard against hidden arrows. If ordinary people do not know the art of Gu, even masters are likely to fall for it.
Li Tianlan frowned slightly and asked: "The art of poisonous poison?"
"I can't explain it in a sentence or two." Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "Will you go to the banquet at Honglu Temple tomorrow?"
Li Tianlan nodded and said, "My father will go there tomorrow, and I will go with him."
Tangning waved her hand and said, "See you tomorrow."
…
The banquet at Honglu Temple was for Chen State envoys and grassland envoys. As a princess, Zhao Man did not need to attend.
In order to show the importance that Chu State attaches to the envoys of the two countries, King Xin will also be present today.
"This is our regent of the Chu State, His Royal Highness King Xin, and this is Princess Changning." The Minister of Honglu Temple first introduced King Xin and Li Tianlan to everyone, and then looked down and introduced: "Your Highness, Princess, this
This is Mr. Tang, the wedding envoy from Chen State, and this is the second prince of Wanyan tribe..."
After some introductions, another official held up his hands and said: "All envoys have come from afar, and Honglu Temple has been ordered to receive them. Everyone, please take a seat..."
Sitting at the top are King Xin and Li Tianlan, and the two rows on the left and right are the envoys of Chen State and the envoys of the grassland respectively.
The Chu State respected the left, so the envoys of Chen State were on the left, with Tang Ning and Lu Teng sitting at the front.
Opposite were the grassland people, led by the young man and Wan Yanyan whom they met yesterday. The person facing Tang Ning was Wan Yan Yan. When he looked up, he saw her staring at him with an unkind look.
