Wei Lan helped Xie Zichen up, but neither of them spoke. The atmosphere was awkward for a moment, Wei Lan turned her head away, coughed lightly and said, "I'll go and see Lin Che first, so I won't talk to you anymore."
After speaking, Wei Lan hurried to the prison.
Wang Xi was carried to Wang's house, and after being taken care of by servants for a while, she woke up slowly. He stared blankly at the top of the bed in a daze, then immediately remembered Wei Lan's words, and hurriedly wanted to go to the dungeon to share the news with Lin Che.
He ignored his servants to stop him all the way, and went to the sky prison with a high fever. When he arrived at the sky prison and said happily: "Ache, you're fine!", he saw Wei Lan standing there.
Wei Lan stood quietly at the door of the prison, looking at Lin Che, who had her back turned to her, without saying a word. The door of the cell was open, and Wei Lan looked calm, as if she was saying goodbye. Wang Xi was stunned, and walked forward, somewhat incomprehensible, "Ah Lan, what are you doing standing here?"
After finishing speaking, he turned his head and saw that Lin Che was surrounded by blood.
He turned his back to them, crossed his legs upright, but his whole body was already soaked in blood. Wang Xi's eyes were about to burst, she rushed in and shouted, "Ache!"
no respond.
The moment his hand touched that person, Lin Che fell down suddenly. Wang Xi supported Lin Che, and the temperature on his body was icy cold.
This person has been away for a long time, and his body has already become so stiff that normal people cannot have. The piece was held in his hand.
It is not difficult to imagine how this person went, and with what mood, he watched his life leave.
Wang Xi hugged Lin Che in his arms, and covered the man's already congealed wound with his hand, as if it was still bleeding, his whole body was trembling: "Call the doctor..."
"Axi," Wei Lan sighed, "he's dead."
"Call the doctor!" Wang Xi roared angrily, raising his voice, roaring like a wild beast: "Call the doctor!"
Wei Lan didn't speak, she looked at Wang Xi quietly, and repeated again: "He's dead."
Wang Xi didn't say a word, tears streaming down his face, he turned his head away, quietly hugged this person in his arms, and kept silent.
"Go and take care of the Shangguan's family and the family members of Su Cheng."
Wei Lan ordered Ran Mo who was behind her, and Ran Mo stepped forward, and said in a low voice, "Master, the news from the shadow guard just now said that Shangguan Guocheng and the queen... also committed suicide."
Wei Lan was not surprised.
Since Xie Zichen did not let Lin Che go, naturally he would not let Shangguan Guocheng and the queen go. She thought that if she didn't tell the person she was really going to protect and put her attraction on Lin Che, Xie Zichen would not go to Shangguan Guocheng and the queen. Who would have thought that he would be so decisive, If you don't move, you are already, and if you move, you will definitely go to the end.
Wei Lan clasped her hands in front of her body, and said coldly, "Where's the hidden guard beside them?"
"Xie Zichen's people moved their hands."
Ran Mo replied in a low voice: "But there is no damage, all of them are kept."
The relationship between the two masters is unclear, so naturally the two sides will not go too far. Wei Lan nodded, looking at Wang Xi who was still hugging Lin Che in the cell and moaning, finally couldn't bear it. Going forward, bent down, and handed him the handkerchief.
"Ah Xi," she said gently, "wipe away your tears."
"He treated me like his biological elder brother since he was a child. I don't have a good relationship with the Wang family's heirs, but he and I seem to be biological brothers."
He spoke in a hoarse voice, but Wei Lan didn't speak. She squatted down, looked at the man's red eyes and embarrassed face, and said again: "Young Master Wang Qi, wipe your tears, or you will lose your demeanor and look ugly .”
"He's not a bad person." Wang Xi insisted as if he didn't hear her words. Wei Lan was silent for a moment, remembering the clear eyes and reddish cheeks when she first saw this boy many years ago.
How bad can such a person be
"I know." That was all she could answer him. Wang Xi finally responded. He raised his head, looked at Wei Lan, and said seriously, "He used to like you."
Wei Lan was slightly taken aback, Wang Xi burst into tears, looked at her, and said seriously: "He once said to me, A Xi, when I look at A Lan, I feel my heart beating fast, but she is obviously a man."
He imitated Lin Che's words back then, and said hoarsely: "If Ah Lan is a woman, no matter what, I will definitely come to ask for marriage."
"He hasn't learned to really like someone." Wang Xi closed his eyes, his whole body trembling: "He hasn't reached the age of weak crown, he is still so young, and there are so many things to do in life."
Wei Lan listened to him quietly, raised her hand to wipe away the tears on his face with a handkerchief, and heard Wang Xi say one sentence after another: "Ji Shao was not killed by him, he was forced by his father, and he is also a victim. Why can't he forgive him? Why can't he forgive himself? I have worked so hard to save him, why does he still have to die?"
"Axi," Wei Lan finally said, "This is the path he chose. Just like Ah Shao back then, he could have survived. I stopped him, and Kang Cheng stopped him, but he insisted on taking that path."
"There is no right or wrong in this path. Winner and loser, Ah Che has already made the choice when he made the decision. Ah Xi, don't use your sadness to force him to walk the path you want him to take."
"He didn't choose this path!" Wang Xi said angrily, "His father never chose it for him, and neither did Xie Zichen! I don't believe that he would commit suicide like this... I don't believe that he will always be good and never have a chance. There is no reason to seek death before being saved... I am going to find Xie Zichen... "
Wang Xi seemed to have finally remembered something. He let go of Lin Che, struggled to stand up, his eyes were full of persistence and viciousness: "I want to go to Xie Zichen... I want him to pay for it... I want Xie Zichen to pay for Lin Che's life... Xie Zichen..."
Wang Xi repeated incoherently and went out, Wei Lan frowned, and was about to follow when she heard Xie Zichen's voice from around the corner: "You want to find me?"
Wang Xi paused, watching Xie Zichen come out from the corner.
The black clothes were embroidered with fluttering crane patterns, and the cloak was draped in slanting wind and cold rain. He stood quietly at the end of the corridor, alone, but with a demeanor that made people retreat. He looked at Wang Xi coldly, and said calmly: " Want me to pay for Lin Che's life?"
"Xie Zichen..."
Wang Xi gritted his teeth and said, "How dare you come!"
"Why don't I dare?" Xie Zichen asked back, but his eyes fell on Wei Lan, and he said calmly: "It's too windy and windy outside, you're in a hurry to go out, I'll bring you a coat."
"Xie Zichen!" Xie Zichen's indifferent attitude angered Wang Xi. He hurried away, grabbed Xie Zichen's collar, and said angrily, "Did you do it? Why did Ah Che die? How could Ah Che die so well?" ! What the hell did you do!"
"Let go." Xie Zichen said coldly, Wang Xi threw a punch at him, Xie Zichen didn't fight back, and took the punch hard. With bruises on his face, he turned to look at Wang Xi, and said coldly, "Is it better? If you do it again, don't blame me for being rude."
"Axi." Wei Lan finally couldn't stand it any longer. Wang Xi was not Xie Zichen's opponent in the first place, and now that he was still ill, Xie Zichen really made a move, and I'm afraid it wouldn't do any good.
She walked up and pulled Wang Xi away. Xie Zichen glanced coldly at Wei Lan's hand that touched Wang Xi, and gave Xie Tong a wink. Mr. Lin committed suicide, please don't blame our young master for everything."
"If he doesn't do anything, Ah Che will kill himself?!"
"Lin Che didn't do anything, will he commit suicide?" Xie Zichen finally spoke out, and said in a cold voice, "Wang Xi, this is the first time you've seen a person who is so righteous and self-serving."
Wang Xi didn't speak, he clenched his fists, Xie Zichen looked at him with cold eyes: "Wang Xi, I didn't do anything to him, I just saved him face. I just told him that what you did for him, he did wrong I have never lied to him, let alone forced him. Of course, you don’t believe it, but I, Xie Zichen, don’t bother to lie to you about this kind of thing.”
"Lin Che has no intention of surviving. To him, life and death have long been unimportant. Death is more of a relief. You will only increase his pain by forcing him to stay in this world."
"I force you to stay?" Wang Xi sneered, "I'm afraid it will ruin Lord Xie's overall situation, so that's why I force you to stay?!"
"Wang Xi," Xie Zichen frowned, "How did you become like this?"
Wang Xi was taken aback for a moment, then said, "What do you mean?"
"Look at your current appearance." Xie Zichen looked at him with some pity: "Do you still remember that you are the eldest son of the Wang family, the Langya Wang family, and the seventh son Wang Xi?"
Wang Xi didn't speak, his eyes were red and swollen, his hair was disheveled, his clothes were wrinkled, stained with cement and blood, he looked in a state of disarray, and he had long since lost his previous demeanor and calmness. He was still neatly dressed and graceful.
After so many years, a group of them, some went far to the north, some died in Huangquan, some got home drunk, and some were like him, struggling in the embarrassment brought about by this power, so unbearable. Only these two people, from the past to the present, seem to have not changed at all, they have been staying away from the surroundings, watching them with cold eyes.
He stared blankly at them, and heard Xie Zichen say: "Wang Xi, I used to think that you would be an extremely outstanding person. Now it seems that it is nothing more than that."
"You can't look at life and death, and you can't let go of gains and losses. Lin Che chose his own path, and you can't let go. This is your lack of freedom. For Lin Che, you forget your family, the overall situation, and your future. You probably I don't remember, you are the eldest son of the Wang family, and you bear the fate of the family. You probably don't remember that you and us are companions. We first met to assist the prince. Now that the prince is on the throne, the country is prosperous. It is a turbulent autumn, but at this time you are disregarding the overall situation and bending the law for personal gain, if I start you, how will I persuade everyone to follow the law from now on?"
"If the upper beam is not upright and the lower beam is crooked, if people like Lin Che, Shangguan Guocheng, who can see at a glance that they have committed the crime of copying their families and exterminating their clan, can still survive, how will the court control them in the future?"
"Where is that Wei Lan?" Wang Xi said coldly, "You say this only because this is not someone you care about."
"Then are you me?" Xie Zichen looked at him quietly: "As a bastard, I worked so hard to get to this position, isn't it just to protect the person I want to protect? I am willing to ignore the overall situation for Wei Lan. But why should I indulge a Lin Che?"
"He is someone you care about, not mine. And now I have to take care of the stability of the court, preside over this case, and be the minister, not you. Of course you don't care how the court manages it, and neither do you. You don't care what His Majesty thinks of me, you don't care what kind of chaos the imperial court is in, if you kneel up and down on your lips, and bend your knees, I will bear all these for you, why?"
Xie Zichen sneered, Wang Xi stopped talking, he lowered his eyes, clenched his fists, and said nothing.
Wei Lan looked at the two of them quietly, and after a long time, said helplessly, "Ah Xi, go back, you are still sick."
"Alan," Xie Zichen also spoke, and said calmly, "Go back, it's night."
Wei Lan didn't say a word, she saw Wang Xi's thin clothes and the abnormal flush on his face, and she knew that he ran over directly after getting off the bed. She couldn't bear it, so she raised her hand and took off her cloak, and put it on Wang Xi.
"Ah Xi," she softened her voice, "You still have a long way to go, Wang Xi, the most noble son of Shengjing, it would be a pity if he lost his demeanor."
Wang Xi raised her head in a daze, looking at the beautiful and gentle person in front of her. He didn't know what happened. When he was young, everyone around him seemed to have changed and left. There seemed to be no traces of his past. Only this person in front of him became the only one who could prove his past.
She seems to be stuck in the past, always so dazzling, so gentle, so considerate of everyone, yet free from everyone.
He couldn't help reaching out to grab her, but Xie Zichen pulled her over.
"Let's go."
Xie Zichen put the coat he brought on her body, and said with a stern expression, "He can't die."
Wei Lan smiled and bid farewell to Wang Xi. Wang Xi quietly watched the person leave Xie Zichen's hand, wearing a cloak with her fragrance, closed her eyes after a long time, and laughed softly.
Xie Zichen pulled Wei Lan into the carriage, keeping his emotions under control.
Wei Lan sensed his emotions, without saying a word, raised her hand to take the tea on the table, and took a sip.
"Are you mad at me?"
Xie Zichen thought of what he had done, but couldn't help but lose confidence, Wei Lan put down her teacup, was stunned when she heard what he said, stopped her movements, and responded in a low voice: "Surprised rather than angry. "
She has always been an extremely rational person. In this relationship, Xie Zichen has never been much more irrational than her. For a long time, she thought that Xie Zichen would compromise and make concessions without a bottom line in this relationship. He didn't agree to save her, but she insisted on saving her, and in the end he also helped her.
In this way, she doesn't feel happy. If she has been in the court, Xie Zichen is such an excellent politician, and when the two of them will fight sooner or later, Xie Zichen's blind withdrawal will make her feel embarrassed and unwilling. She doesn't mind fighting with Xie Zichen. The defeated bandit is like this on the battlefield, and so is the government. So when Xie Zichen said that he wanted to separate the affairs of the court from the affairs of the two of them, she was very happy to do so.
Although she felt sorry for Lin Che and felt sorry for Su Cheng for Shangguan Guocheng's death, she had tried her best. What she did her best, she had a clear conscience, Xie Zichen had his own standpoint, she was not someone who would use her feelings to force Xie Zichen to back down.
It's just that Xie Zichen, who she thought would always affect her because of her feelings and would always regress, suddenly insisted on her principles. She couldn't help being a little surprised, and couldn't help saying: "Your Majesty, I have already persuaded you, Zichen, why did you give in, Yan Lan? Not this time?"
"I have no choice but to Yan Lan." Seeing that Wei Lan was not angry, Xie Zichen breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "Besides, Yan Lan's case was risky, so it's not without benefits, but it's just a risk to take a chance. In the end, we did win Bo. If the Yan Lan case hadn't forced Su Cheng to rebel, you and I might have to struggle for many years to get to this position."
"But Lin Che is different. For Wang Xi, Lin Che is the sustenance of his feelings. For you, you have to fulfill Su Cheng's promise. But for me, letting Lin Che and Shangguan's family go is harmless. Li. Alan, I won't change your principles, but I don't want to change my own principles for you either."
Wei Lan didn't speak, she watched him quietly.
After a while, she lowered her eyes: "Do you mind if I go up?"
"Alan," he looked up at her and said seriously, "I'm learning to understand you."
With that said, he got up from his seat, held her hand, knelt down in front of her on one knee, and looked up at her quietly.
"Maybe I can't learn it in one day, maybe I can't learn it in a year, but Ah Lan, I'm working hard to learn."
"Why..." Wei Lan was a little confused, she opened her mouth: "It must be me?"
"Alan," Xie Zichen raised his hand, and put his wide and warm palm on her winter-cold face, and said softly, "Because I have only met you for so many years."
Wei Lan was slightly stunned and did not speak. Xie Zichen's eyes were watching her quietly. His eyes had always been like the vast ocean under the night, so deep and elusive, but he didn't know when this man was facing her. When I was looking at her, when I looked at her, I became more and more like an ordinary teenager, with clean and clear eyes full of persistence.
She thought he probably really loved her.
My mother once said that no matter how dignified and generous a man is, after falling in love with a woman, he will become more and more like a child. He will have a temper, will act like a baby, will burst out all the shortcomings that others cannot see, and will also show all the cuteness that others cannot see.
No one has seen Xie Zichen like this, and no one will know that this seemingly all-powerful, ruthless man has so many dark, unbearable, petty, and annoying sides. But he would kick the quilt at night like a child, he would have such clean eyes, he would hug her and act like a baby carefully.
She didn't know why, but she suddenly wanted to hug him so much, but she was so worried and afraid. There were so many differences between them, from their world to their family. Will not come into contact with such a man.
How far can this relationship go? Will one day, they torture and quarrel with each other, and wait until the two hate each other, and then reprimand each other to separate
She wasn't sure, but she couldn't push this person away.
"Alan," he finally said, seriously: "Forgive me, let's make up, okay?"
Wei Lan couldn't speak, she opened her mouth and lowered her eyes.
"Zichen, in my world, liking you, being together, reconciling, these words should all be spoken by women."
Xie Zichen was slightly taken aback, and then Wei Lan said: "So, I will give you time to learn to understand me, and you will also give me time to be sure of you."
Make sure I can be with you, make sure we won't be apart, make sure we won't regret it if we do.
Xie Zichen didn't speak, he lowered his eyes, held her hand, and said gently: "Alan, I have been waiting for you for a long, long time."
"So, as long as the last person is me, I don't care if it's longer."
Wei Lan looked at him, countless complicated emotions surged in her heart, she suddenly wanted to get close to this person so much, hugged this person so much, wanted to kiss this person so much, wanted to give back to him, and told him that the waiting would not be in vain.
She has always been a person with strong mobility, and she is doing this when she thinks so. She squatted down like Xie Zichen, and under Xie Zichen's suspicious eyes, she hugged him into her arms, protected his head, put her hands on his back, and pressed him against the car wall and kissed him.
The wall of the car was hit by two people, Xie Zichen couldn't help being kissed by her, while panting, he said in a hoarse voice: "Alan, be gentle."
"En." Wei Lan responded in a low voice, then slowed down her strength, only lightly licked the shape of the opponent's lips with her small tongue, and then poked it in very gently, entangled with the opponent's soft tongue.
She pressed Xie Zichen's hand under hers, intertwined her fingers, and sat on him, kissing him again and again. Xie Zichen was so uncomfortable being kissed by her, turned against the guest, and suddenly pressed her on the fluffy carpet, covered her with his hands, kissed her neck, unbuttoned her clothes, raised his hands and kneaded her heavily . Wei Lan frowned, not liking his recklessness, and said in a low voice: "Be gentle."
Xie Zichen responded, slowed down his strength, and pressed Wei Lan, not allowing her to make any other movements.
Xie Tong drove the car expressionlessly outside, pondering in his heart.
It was too fierce, my young master and Wei Shizi were really powerful, the carriage was almost knocked over twice. The two rolled on the carriage for a long time, Xie Zichen suddenly raised his head, and said seriously: "It's coming soon, Ah Lan, get dressed quickly!"
Wei Lan: "..."
As he said that, Xie Zichen began to pull the clothes for Wei Lan, Wei Lan pushed him, got up lazily, pulled the clothes by himself and said, "You can wear your own."
The two of them each finished arranging their clothes. Xie Zichen saw that Wei Lan was still a little wrinkled, so he pulled her clothes. Wei Lan felt warm in her heart, but she didn't say anything, and turned her head away without saying a word.
"Alan," Xie Zichen said seriously, "I will marry you."
Wei Lan: "..."
Should I say thank you
After finishing speaking, Xie Zichen also sensed something was wrong, and said with difficulty: "It's okay if you don't marry."
"Huh?" Wei Lan was a little surprised: "You marry me?"
"Don't marry... can't you?" Xie Zichen's face was not very good-looking, Wei Lan smiled, shook her fan in front of him, and said word by word: "No, yes, yes."
Her smile was bright and touching, but both parties knew that it was just a joke.
In this world, what is absolutely possible and absolutely impossible
The two got off the carriage while talking, Xie Tong didn't dare to look up, Wei Lan went back to the Hou's mansion, and Xie Zichen went back to his home. Xie Tong couldn't help being a little puzzled: "Master, don't you want to strike while the iron is hot and talk to the prince?"
"Don't talk too much," Xie Zichen said calmly, "Hurry up and move your things to the Hou's Mansion."
Time doesn't wait, if you can't live in today, you may not be able to live in tomorrow!
Xie Tong couldn't help feeling that his master was far-sighted, followed by Xie Zichen and started to pack things, Xie Zichen did it himself, took all the memorials, and then strode towards Changxinhou Mansion with Xie Tong who was carrying a big burden. When the butler met Xie Zichen, he was stunned and said, "My lord, are you going on a long trip?"
"Um."
Xie Zichen didn't want to say much, so he responded. The butler hurriedly said, "When will your lord come back?"
"Not coming back."
housekeeper:"???"
"If you have something to do, come to Changxinhou Mansion to find me."
Butler: "..."
He knows it! !
When Wei Lan returned home, she changed her clothes, sat down to prepare the memorial, and heard Ran Mo say: "My lord, thank you for coming."
Wei Lan: "?"
Just separated, what are you doing now
Ran Mo stepped aside to open the door, Xie Zichen was holding the memorial, Xie Tong was carrying a big bag, and stood behind Xie Zichen carrying two bags. The two stood at the door with a serious face. Wei Lan was stunned, holding a pen and said: " Zichen, what are you?"
"Alan," Xie Zichen didn't think there was any problem at all, and said calmly, "It's cold in winter, I'm afraid you will catch the cold, so I came here to warm your bed."
Wei Lan: "..."
Wei Shao, who came to look for Wei Lan with the bird, hummed a little song and walked to the door. When he heard this sentence, he immediately got angry, and holding the birdcage, he said aggressively: "Xie Zichen, you bastard..."
When the voice fell, Xie Zichen turned his head in search of the sound, and a cold and delicate face fell into Wei Shao's eyes, and he calmly said, "My lord father-in-law."
Wei Shao's foot was tilted, and the pain reminded him clearly that Xie Zichen is now the second-rank minister and the emperor's favorite minister. He is equal to his daughter and the head of the Wang family, and he is an indisputable figure in the court.
The deep memory of being suppressed and bullied by various high-ranking officials for many years came to mind. Thinking about the things between the two of them, it is not a day or two. Wei Shao immediately left without saying a word, walked around with the birdcage.
Xie Zichen frowned, turned his head to look at Wei Lan, and said with some anxiety: "Does my father-in-law not like me too much?"
Wei Lan: "..."
Since when did he become so thick-skinned
After a while, Wei Lan calmed down, unfolded the notebook, and said gently: "Probably because he thought you called the wrong person."
Xie Zichen smiled, and walked in with Xie Tong, Xie Tong began to move his things into the house, Ran Mo hesitated and glanced at Wei Lan, Wei Lan did not look up, Xie Zichen noticed Ran Mo's expression, and said calmly : "As long as your master doesn't like it in the slightest, I will leave immediately."
As soon as the words were finished, the tip of Wei Lan's pen fell down, Xie Zichen was slightly taken aback, he never thought that Wei Lan would really be displeased, and he broke his pen because of patience. Wei Lan was also surprised, she didn't do anything, how did the money end? !
Xie Zichen's face became extremely ugly, but after all, Wei Lan really didn't like it, he felt that he couldn't push it too much, so he turned his head and said to Xie Tong: "Go back."
After saying that, she walked away, Wei Lan was stunned for a moment, then got up and chased out, and hurriedly said to her servant: "Why are you so stupefied? Stop it!"
Hearing Wei Lan's words, Xie Zichen knew that it was a misunderstanding, so he slowed down, and when Wei Lan caught up, he grabbed his hand and explained, "Listen to me, Zichen, I just broke the pen by myself." , and I did not…”
Before she finished speaking, Wei Lan was pulled into his arms by Xie Zichen, Xie Zichen laughed out loud, his chest trembled slightly, and Wei Lan couldn't help being stunned.
It was cold in early winter, but this person's embrace was so warm that it made people obsessed. He followed her back and said gently, "I know, I know."
The two moved their desks and sat on one side, reviewing the memorial together, as if they were still studying in the palace, but now both of them have grown up, they are no longer the immature, nor rusty, silently On the contrary, there was a sentence without a sentence, and the night became gentle.
The emperor was worried about handing things over to Wei Lan. Although she was the prime minister, she didn't have as many things as Xie Zichen. When Wei Lan finished approving and Xie Zichen was still approving, Wei Lan said, "I'll stay with you."
After finishing speaking, she sat next to him, took a story book casually, and leaned against him to read.
Xie Zichen put on his folded clothes quietly, and when he finally finished his work, he realized that the person leaning on his shoulder had fallen asleep. He couldn't help but soften his brows and eyes, carefully picked up that person, put him on the bed, then lay on himself, held her in his arms, and pulled the quilt on.
Wei Lan opened her eyes in a daze, and asked in a daze, "Zichen?"
"Well, it's me." Xie Zichen patted her hand and said gently, "Go to sleep."
"Zichen," Wei Lan blurted out, "Ah Xi must be very sad."
Xie Zichen didn't reply, she was probably confused, so she said this.
He also knows that reason is reason, but emotion is always there. She likes to deal with problems rationally, but the embarrassment he brings to her will never decrease.
"I'm sorry." He held her hand and said in a hoarse voice, suddenly he had some regrets, why was he such a stubborn girl.
But if it wasn't for such a stubborn girl, probably, he wouldn't have liked her.
The two slept in a daze until the next day, Xie Zichen sneaked out as before, and then went to court separately. Wang Xi took sick leave, and Wei Lan also knew that he needed time to relax. When Su Bai issued an amnesty order, Xie Zichen and Su Bai argued for a while, but nothing happened. But Lin Che, Su Bai, and the empress were all dead, and the rest were indeed innocent people. Everyone present also understood that although the emperor might have issued an amnesty order under pressure from Wang Xi's family, Xie Zichen's one-day , this Chao Gang will definitely not be chaotic. For a while, I had some thoughts, so I restrained myself.
After dealing with the remnants of the Sioux City, within a few days, envoys from various countries will enter the city for the enthronement ceremony. Wei Lan is in charge of handling this matter and arranging the envoys from various countries. Other countries are fine, the most important thing is Dijie.
Di Jie sent the princess Rong Ji and the second prince Rong Hua here this time, it can be said that he gave enough face and expressed his friendship. Princesses in ancient times went to other countries with the intention of making marriages. Di Jie is a big country and has been a rival of Great Chu for many years. If they can establish diplomatic relations with Di Jie, then there will naturally be enough reasons to gradually weaken Huanheng's military power and reduce the northern army's military power. Defend. So although Su Bai handed over the matter to Wei Lan, he was still not at ease in private, and issued an imperial edict to Xie Zichen, asking him to supervise secretly.
Xie Zichen naturally wants to do things for the emperor with all his heart, even if he doesn't do anything, he must at least put on a show, so on the day Princess Dijie entered the city, when Wei Lan brought the officials to greet him, Xie Zichen quietly went to a teahouse in the city, Quietly watched Di Jieren enter the city.
Wei Lan led a guard of honor of 200 people and waited outside the city at the agreed time, but after waiting for an hour, no one came. It was windy and gloomy that day, and it seemed that it was going to snow heavily. Everyone was so cold that they stood there and stomped their feet. Wei Lan sent someone to ask, but the other party replied that the princess was still putting on makeup, so she had to wait. .
With a smile on her face, Wei Lan said to the maid: "Please tell your princess, I will wait for her for another quarter of an hour, and if it is less than a quarter, I will go to the posthouse to pick her up in person. What is Wei Lan doing in the north?" , I think your second prince is very clear, if I go, I am afraid that everyone will not look good."
The maid's complexion changed. During Wei Lan's years in the north, Di Jie already knew the reputation of this young killer. They will never forget the humiliation of being the only leader out of thousands of people.
Da Chu has long forgotten such a feat, but for Di Jie, this is hatred, and they will never forget it.
Wei Lan knew the habits of the second prince, Di Jie. Although they came to establish diplomatic relations, they would definitely make things difficult for the envoys in order to slap Da Chu in the face. style.
So Su Bai asked her to be the envoy to meet him, and she didn't delay. Facing Di Jie, in the officialdom of Dachu, she really couldn't find an official who was more suitable to slap them in the face than herself.
The maid hurried back, and when Wei Lan looked back with a cold expression, she saw Xie Zichen holding a bowl of ginger soup in front of her.
Wei Lan was stunned for a moment, Xie Zichen's face was not very good-looking, and he said calmly: "Drink, don't be cold."
"No problem," Wei Lan softened her expression, "I'm not cold."
Having said that, she still took the ginger soup and drank it slowly. After she finished drinking the soup, Xie Zichen handed her a hand stove, pulled her clothes, and said coldly, "These two princes and princesses may have broken their legs. Let's pick them up at the station."
"No need." Holding the stove, Wei Lan calmed down a lot, and said gently, "Wait another quarter of an hour."
In less than a quarter of an hour, Di Jie's team appeared in everyone's field of vision. There were a total of two thousand of them, and two or two luxurious carriages were caught in the middle. Those 2,000 people carried the blood that is unique to soldiers on the battlefield. Looking at them from a distance, everyone couldn't help but get nervous.
"Di Jie's soldiers are really heroic." The courteous officer couldn't help but sigh, Wei Lan turned her head away with a smile, and said gently: "This lord must have never been to the north, and he has seen me, Da Chu Erlang."
Only then did the ceremonial officer remember that Prime Minister Wei's official career started from the north.
He quickly stopped talking, everyone watched the convoy getting closer, and when the carriage arrived in front of Wei Lan, everyone knelt down, only Wei Lan and Xie Zichen stood, holding wat boards, bending slightly, Wei Lan raised He said in a respectful voice: "Wei Lan, the Right Minister of the Great Chu, is ordered by my Son of Heaven to welcome His Royal Highness Rong Hua and Princess Rong Ji here. Both His Royal Highnesses are a thousand years old and a thousand years old."
Hundreds of officials followed Wei Lan's voice and called Chitose, but the two people in the carriage were silent. After a while, a female voice said coldly: "Wei Lan? Is it Wei Lan, the son of Changxin Houfu?"
"Exactly."
Just as Wei Lan confessed, the whip was thrown out of the carriage. Xie Zichen grabbed the whip with quick eyesight and quick hands. Wei Lan stood behind him and said calmly, "What do you mean, princess?"
"You killed my brother, and you asked me what I meant?"
The woman yelled angrily, and then said to Xie Zichen: "You guard, don't let me get out of the way? If you don't let me, I will kill you!"
Xie Zichen remained expressionless, holding on to the whip and refusing to let go, Wei Lan smiled and said softly: "The battlefield is about life and death, the princess still remembers my achievements, I am very happy, but Di Jie came here this time to wish me When the new Emperor of Great Chu ascends the throne, Her Royal Highness will throw a whip when they meet, isn’t it pretty?”
"Shut up!"
The woman in the car gritted her teeth, Wei Lan made sense of every word, she couldn't find a word for a while, she could only think of what her brothers said about Wei Lan, and she opened her mouth and said: "You are a rabbit worthy of being under a human body..."
Before he finished speaking, Xie Zichen's face turned cold, and he pulled hard with his hand, and directly pulled the person in the carriage out along the whip, and slammed him to the ground.
The girl who fell out was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, wearing a gold silk dress, wearing Di Jie's unique hair crown on her head, her hair was braided into two small braids on both sides, her facial features were extremely deep, she was Di Jie The peculiar appearance of a person.
Xie Zichen let go of her whip, put his hands in his sleeves, stood in front of Wei Lan, and said coldly, "Little girl, keep your mouth clean!"
"Zichen," Wei Lan came out, and said gently, "It's just a little girl talking nonsense, what's there to be ashamed of?"
"You...you..." Rong Ji cried out anxiously, then picked up the whip, whipped it towards Xie Zichen again, and shouted angrily, "I'll kill you bastard!"
Xie Zichen pulled her with the whip, pulled her whole body over, kicked her between her knees, forced her to kneel down, and said calmly: "I have no principles not to hit women, you'd better be quiet."
"roll!"
Rong Ji turned around and kicked her. Xie Zichen grabbed her ankle and fell to the ground. Then he put his hands back into his sleeves, stood where he was, and said coldly, "Are you convinced?"
It was snowing, Wei Lan looked at the little girl sitting on the ground, her body was stained with mud, her eyes were red, she couldn't help being a little funny.
I thought she was such a powerful person, but she was always a little girl.
Xie Zichen was also angry, and looked at the other party coldly, Rong Ji gritted his teeth and rushed forward again, Xie Zichen raised his hand and tied her hands behind her back, pinching her wrists with one hand, and said coldly: "Not convinced?"
"Not convinced!"
Rong Ji cursed angrily: "I, Di Jie, will never admit defeat!"
Xie Zichen: "..."
He suddenly felt that he was mentally retarded if he got angry with this girl.
He pushed her away and said lightly, "Go back, forget it."
After finishing speaking, he was about to leave, and Rong Ji wanted to catch up. Wei Lan grabbed her and said gently: "Princess, go back to the carriage."
"No, stop!" Rong Ji struggled desperately, but Wei Lan's hand seemed to weigh a thousand catties. Xie Zichen noticed that Rong Ji and Wei Lan were entangled, stopped, turned his head and frowned, "What do you want?"
"Stop, I will definitely win you today!" Rong Ji yelled angrily, Xie Zichen's expression was flat: "I won't fight you, I'm afraid you will become angry after humiliating yourself."
"Fuck your mother!" Rong Ji escaped a golden knife from her arms, and said angrily, "I declare war on you with a golden knife, and you must answer me today!"
Xie Zichen frowned, looked at Wei Lan, and asked what it meant. Wei Lan frowned, and was about to speak, when she saw Rong Ji's proud face and said: "This is Di Jie's most solemn challenge, if you win me, you can marry me. I am Princess Di Jie, from now on you To be a son-in-law is definitely not the kind of splendor and wealth that you, a little guard, can imagine! Come and fight me!"
Xie Zichen: "..."
This is really a terrible princess. Originally, he wanted to help Wei Lan solve the problem, but after hearing what Rong Ji meant, Xie Zichen turned around decisively.
"Thank you, I can't afford it."
After finishing speaking, Xie Zichen left calmly, dressed in black and golden crown, wearing a big cloak, stepping on clogs and stepping on the wind and snow, disappearing from everyone's sight.
Rong Ji gritted her teeth and turned to Wei Lan, "What's the guard's name?! I must find him!"
Wei Lan said with a serious face: "I don't know."
Rong Ji didn't believe it, and asked suspiciously, "You don't know your guard?"
Wei Lan continued to lie seriously: "I am a prime minister, why do I know the names of the guards?"
Rong Ji nodded, showing an understanding expression, then turned to look at Wei Lan, and said seriously: "You wait, when I defeat him, I will beat you! Wei Lan," Rong Ji taunted: "You Princess Shang's chance has come!"
Wei Lan: "..."
She suddenly felt that Xie Zichen's words were right, thank you, I can't afford to be too high...
