The two stopped in front of Kunyu Palace. Chun Yuyan smiled and straightened her slightly messy hair and said, "Lan'er, I have wronged you."
Hua Jinglan wrinkled her nose, "I don't feel aggrieved, I just think you are feeling aggrieved."
Chunyu Yan's eyes became gentler and gentler, "If you have a close friend in your life, what more can you ask for?"
"Don't be sour. Start work early and finish work early. Let's go!"
"My son and his wife, Princess Hua, paid homage to their father, emperor and mother." Chun Yuyan knelt on the soft cushions sent by the palace servants and respectfully offered new tea to Chunyu Rao. Hua Jinglan did the same.
Chunyu Rao took them one by one, took a sip, and then hummed inexplicably.
This time the two of them turned to Queen Situ Min. She drank Chun Yuyan's tea first, then took Hua Jinglan's tea cup after a pause. She spread the tea leaves twice with it, but she was not in a hurry to drink it. She said indifferently: " Lift your head and take a look at me."
Damn old woman! Hua Jinglan cursed in her heart.
Leng Ran raised her head, raised her eyes and looked at the person in front of her with an unkind expression. She still hasn't gotten used to this kind of rule of kneeling when meeting people, so of course she won't show a good face to anyone.
But the moment she raised her head, Situ Min's hands trembled heavily, and he looked at her in surprise.
Hua Jinglan frowned slightly. Seeing that the tea cup in her hand was about to turn over, she reached out to help her, but Situ Min suddenly shrank back as if she was struck by electricity. The hot tea roiled out and spilled some on her dress. Shocked, he stood up quickly again.
The maid on the side quickly went to help her, and Chun Yurao also looked at her and said, "What's wrong with the queen?"
Situ Min forced a smile and replied: "I just didn't hold my hand steady, which shocked the emperor and made me panic."
Chunyurao waved his hand and said, "It's just a pity that this cup of daughter-in-law's tea is a pity."
Situ Min came to his senses after a while. He bent down to help Hua Jinglan get up, and said kindly: "I scared Princess Xiaoyao. You should get up first and wait for me to change clothes."
Hua Jinglan suppressed her doubts and nodded. Her face could shock Situ Min to such an extent. Is there any connection between the Hua family and the Situ family
"I still have political matters to deal with, so you two can wait here for the queen!" Chunyu Rao said and left.
Hua Jinglan looked at Chun Yuyan inexplicably, only to see that the latter also had serious eyebrows and narrowed eyes, wondering why Situ Min had lost his composure just now.
After sitting for a while, Chun Yuzhuang and Murong Wei arrived late. They were a little surprised when they saw that there was no one in the high hall. The nanny on the side quickly stepped forward and explained: "The Queen has gone into the inner room to change clothes. , please wait a moment for Your Highness and the Princess."
When Situ Min came out again, his expression was still as before. The scene that just appeared was just a flash in the pan, and it was difficult to capture its traces.
Hua Jinglan met her eyes several times, but she didn't show any clues anymore. She couldn't help but admire this woman. She knocked over the tea cup for the first time when he saw her, and turned away without making a sound. She was worthy of being a goddess in the palace. A woman who has reached the phoenix position!
After chatting for a while, Chun Yuyan made an excuse and left first.
The two of them walked leisurely to the imperial garden, and Hua Jinglan said, "What on earth did the queen see that made her so frightened?"
Chunyu Yan shook his head, his face turned cold, "There are so many secrets in the palace, how can I find out which one they are?"
As he spoke, he turned to look at her and said solemnly: "I will never force you to enter the palace again in the future. Avoid such occasions if you can!"
Hua Jinglan also agreed. Although she didn't know the reason, it would never be a good thing for the queen to look like that when she saw her face. It would be better to do less than to do more.
After leaving the palace, she separated from Chunyu Yan and returned to Xueyue Courtyard alone.
"Young master is back!" Jiao Yue was dozing off while sitting on the threshold. Hua Jinglan pushed her and she drowsily opened her eyes.
Su Huan and Mei Er also hurriedly walked out of the yard. They saw Hua Jinglan not only changed into women's clothes, but also put on a woman's bun. They couldn't help but be stunned. For a moment, they couldn't explain what they felt. They just felt a sour heat in their hearts. However, it was as if he was watching his daughter get married and return home, with a strange mixture of sweetness and sourness.
Xiangrong and Hua Yin almost didn't recognize her when they walked out, but they knew one thing from her dress, that is, their young master really had someone he loved!
Hua Jinglan pulled up her sleeves and said, "It's really uncomfortable to wear it like this. I'll change it later."
She looked around and didn't find Wen Zhuoyi's figure, so she asked, "Where is anyone else?"
When Wen Zhuoyi returned to Xueyue Villa sadly this morning, he thought Rong had seen him. Thinking that he might be feeling uncomfortable now, he couldn't say this.
"Mr. Wen just went to the bamboo garden." Huanong pointed to the bamboo forest in the backyard.
After Hua Jinglan nodded, she walked straight towards the Zhuyuan. Xiangrong took a step after her. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it. She shook her head in her mind and could only sigh that we were destined to be together.
Wen Zhuoyi was sitting in front of the stone table, drinking glass after glass. He heard the footsteps behind him. Such familiar steps, how could he not know who it was, but he didn't want to look back and see her. There is a coquettishness in her eyebrows because of other men.
"Yan Qing." Hua Jinglan called him.
Wen washed his hands for a while and finally put down the jade cup. He looked back with a smile on his face and said, "You are so beautiful dressed like this."
"Stop laughing." Even worse than crying, Hua Jinglan walked over calmly, sat down opposite him, and said, "I'm here to tell you something."
"Is it about your marriage to King Xiaoyao? I already know..." Wen Zhuoyi forced a smile.
"It's Shangguanqing." Hua Jinglan looked up at him and said, "Your sister, she's not dead."
Wen Zhuoyi looked at her in shock and said in shock, "My sister, she's not dead...?!"
"Shangguan Qing was considered dead by the court after her whereabouts were unknown three years ago. She also escaped the tragedy of Shangguan's family being wiped out. She is now Yuchi Jue's divorced wife. If you want to find her, you can leave at any time." Jinglan said seriously.
The original joy was mixed with a hint of paleness, Wen Zhuoyi looked at her with complicated eyes, "Hua Jinglan, do you really want me to leave?"
"It's too sad to live for others. Now you are no longer the hopeless Wen Zhuoyi. You are Shangguan Yanqing, so you are now free to find what you want."
The last bit of rosy color on Wen Zhuoyi's face had completely faded away. As soon as the cold wind passed by, the bamboo leaves rustled in the bamboo forest. "Don't you know why I survived?" he asked sadly.
