The ladies and ladies in the room realized that Tang Yanwan didn't know when they came in, and they all got up and saluted. Tang Yanwan is not only the daughter of the eldest princess, she will also become the prince princess after a while. No one can offend such an identity.
Tang Yanwan waved everyone to get up and sat right beside Long Zhiling, and said condescendingly: "Cousin is straight-hearted, if you offend everyone, please bear with me."
Long Zhiling pouted, "I didn't say anything wrong, what do you want them to bear?"
Tang Yanwan glared at her. Long Zhiling had always been afraid of this cousin. Seeing her angry, she could only sit aside obediently and stop talking.
Zhuge Linlang was not interested in the careful thinking of these people, and she and these people rarely had a common language, so she went to the garden to breathe the air under the pretext of being bored in the house.
The garden of Taifu's Mansion connects the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard, but each has a circular arch, which can be locked when necessary to prevent the male guests from offending the female relatives by accidental intrusion.
It's just that the door that originally led to the outer courtyard should have been locked today, but I don't know why it was opened greatly. This garden is very open, except for the circle of willow trees at the outermost and centralmost part, and other places are planted with flowers that bloom throughout the seasons. But since it is winter now, there are only a few plum blossoms in the whole garden, and it looks deadly.
Zhuge Linlang stopped in the garden. In fact, she is not too unfamiliar with the scenery of Taifu's Mansion. In her previous life, she often came to Taifu's Mansion to look for Bai Xia. The people in this mansion were just like Bai Xia.
But since the rebirth, this is the first time to come to Taifu's Mansion. No matter what the reason for coming every time in the previous life, this moment has never made her feel so complicated.
In her previous life, she regarded Bai Xia as her best friend, but she didn't expect to betray her without hesitation in the end, just for a man.
Just when Zhuge Linlang was feeling deeply moved, Cai Qing suddenly said, interrupting Zhuge Linlang's contemplation.
"Girl, the fifth prince is here."
Zhuge Linlang returned to his senses, and she saw Long Wenqing striding over from the opposite arch. It was obvious that he was coming for Zhuge Linlang.
"I have seen the Fifth Prince." Although I don't quite understand why Long Wenqing came to her
Because Zhuge Linlang didn't want to be caught in such details, so she always kept the salute.
"Huh, I don't see it, General Feng Yang is really capable! I didn't say that he caught up with my third brother, but he still had a leg with the Seventh Emperor Brother." When Long Wenqing saw Zhuge Linlang, he remembered that he was with his third brother Long Wenji When I heard the news, I didn't get angry.
Facing Long Wenqing's cynicism, Zhuge Linlang frowned without a trace, "Weichen doesn't understand the meaning of the five princes."
"Don't understand?" Long Wenqing sneered, "My Royal Highness asks you, did you give my third brother the credit for suppressing bandits before deliberately to please my third brother?"
"The suppression of the bandit itself is the merit of the three princes. The Weichen is only observing the orders." Zhuge Linlang's expressionless face became lighter, "Besides, the Weichen was originally Daikin's courtier, so there is no way to please him. ?"
Long Wenqing obviously didn't expect Zhuge Linlang to say this, so he didn't answer the conversation immediately. But soon he regained his thoughts, "You will be sophistry. That's right, we are your master, and the Seventh Emperor's brother is also your master."
"..."
"Huh, but my Highness still hopes you can think clearly, who is more worthy of your loyalty compared to my third brother and the seven emperors?" Long Wenqing said.
When she heard Long Wenqing say Long Wenxi, Zhuge Linlang knew that the last time she went to Sun Dianqi’s other courtyard was passed on. Although she was not afraid of being known, now Long Wenji and Long Wenxi are paying her back. Useful, so they can't be separated.
"His Royal Highness Fifth has misunderstood, and the Weichen and His Highness Seven only met by chance."
Of course Long Wenqing didn't believe it, "By chance? There will be such a coincidence in the world?"
"If your Royal Highness doesn't believe it, the Weichen can't. It's just that the scenery of the other courtyard of the Sun Shangshu's house is unique. Didn't Your Highness go and play?"
Zhuge Linlang's rhetorical question left Long Wenqing speechless. The scenery in that other courtyard was indeed beautiful, especially after the heavy snowfall! He had even thought about buying it from Sun Dianqi. Who knew that Sun Dianqi killed his wife and loved the other courtyard so much that she didn’t sell it. In the end, Emperor Longqing knew about it and scolded him severely. G.
In fact, Long Wenji is not very sure whether Zhuge Linlang and Long Wenxi met by chance or premeditated.
Certainly, that's why he asked his younger brother Long Wenqing to test Zhuge Linlang through the banquet at Taifu's Mansion.
Now that Zhuge Linlang has understood his purpose, Long Wenqing also knows that if Zhuge Linlang wants to deceive them, he will definitely find a way to cleanse himself, the more excuses he makes, the easier it is to reveal his flaws, but now Long Wenqing has a little guilty conscience. Can't tell.
"I hope you can agree with your words and deeds! Otherwise, if you press the wrong treasure, it will be bad for you to lose your personal wealth." Long Wenqing left the garden after speaking. After all, lone men and widows have stayed for a long time, and it won't be good for anyone to spread it out. it is good.
After Long Wenqing left, Zhuge Linlang waited for a while again, and she saw Bai Xia coming out of the inner courtyard. A guilty conscience flashed across her face when she saw Zhuge Linlang, but she quickly calmed down and walked to Zhuge Linlang.
"Lin Lang, why are you here alone?"
"Can't I be here alone?" Zhuge Linlang asked rhetorically.
"No, I mean, the banquet hall inside is much busier, why don't you go in? Many daughters are very interested in you."
"It's too stuffy inside, I want to sit here alone."
"Lin Lang, I..." Bai Xia wanted to say more, but Zhuge Linlang stopped her.
"Yes, girl, with such a strong wind outside, it's going to snow again, or let's go inside!" Cai Qing on the side saw Bai Xia persuading Zhuge Linlang not to move Zhuge Linlang, and Bai Xia's face was embarrassed. , She couldn't help but persuade.
Zhuge Linlang raised her eyes and glanced at Cai Qing, "You can speak."
Caiqing's face turned white, and she whispered: "The slave and maid are also worried about your body, girl."
"Bai Xia, speaking of it, I don't know if you are free on the day of your wedding. Fortunately, at this time, I will give you a gift in advance!" Zhuge Linlang directly ignored Cai Qing's words and said to Bai Xia.
Bai Xia suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart, "What gift?"
"Caiqing was bought into the mansion by my father when I was very young. After all these years of training, I don’t know how much better than the average girl. In terms of our relationship, let’s give her to you! After all, you want It’s the East Palace to marry, and it’s good to have multiple people called."
As soon as Zhuge Linlang finished speaking, the faces of Bai Xia and Cai Qing changed at the same time.
