Hearing Wei Lan's words, Xie Zichen felt a little embarrassed for some reason. He turned his face away, pretended to be calm, and said in a low voice, "Understood."
"Know?" Wei Lan laughed angrily at his appearance: "Know and cause trouble for me? I'm afraid this princess is going to pester you."
"I was alone at the time, and if I didn't save her, I would have died. If Princess He died, Di Jie and Da Chu might not be able to form an alliance. Now you know the situation of Da Chu. If you are strong outside but do nothing, if you fight Di Jie again In a short time, the imperial court was forced by the situation to keep increasing troops and food for Huan Heng, and it might not be easy to weaken Huan Heng."
Xie Zichen frowned, and analyzed it for Wei Lan with a serious face. Wei Lan naturally knew these reasons, but when she remembered that Rong Ji was paying Xie Zichen's attention every day, she became angry.
Before, she didn't think that someone like Rong Ji had any lethality. Wei Lan thought it was normal for someone to admire Xie Zichen. It is not normal for such a handsome and outstanding man to have few admirers. However, now that Rong Ji and Xie Zichen have such entanglements, if it is not handled well, Xie Zichen may really be asked to become the princess. When Wei Lan thought of this possibility, she had the idea of killing Rong Ji directly.
She restrained her emotions, worried that because she was in a bad mood, her hand strength would hurt Xie Zichen's hair. Xie Zichen didn't dare to speak, and cautiously glanced at Wei Lan.
After Wei Lan dried his hair, she planned to stand up, Xie Zichen decisively reached out and hugged her waist, Wei Lan said calmly, "Let go."
"Don't be angry, okay, I will solve this matter, I promise."
"I'm not angry," Wei Lan said softly, "I'll get you a coat, don't be cold."
"Are you really not angry?"
Xie Zichen raised his face, Wei Lan looked into his child-like eyes, no matter how angry he was, he could only say: "Don't be angry anymore. I am not angry with you. I, Wei Lan, am not venting my anger on my man." people."
"Then kiss me. If you kiss me, I believe you will not be angry."
Xie Zichen acted like a sweetheart, and Wei Lan was amused by him, she pushed his forehead with her finger, and said with a smile, "Where did you learn to be such a rascal!"
"have no idea."
Xie Zichen leaned against her, put his ear on her belly, felt her temperature, listened to her voice, and said slowly: "I don't know what's wrong with me, it's like being possessed by a demon, in front of you, I always want to act like a baby with you, like a child, to please you."
"I have never had such emotions towards others. I want to act like a baby, I want the other person to look at me a few times, I want her eyes to be all about me, even when I was young, I was facing a father who wanted him to face up to my son. , never before.”
"Alan," Xie Zichen raised his head and stared at Wei Lan: "I don't look like a man at all, I look like a child, will you dislike me?"
Wei Lan smiled. She stroked his hair, bent down, and kissed him on the lips.
"No," she said softly, "I like our servants no matter what."
Xie Zichen liked hearing her say he liked it.
Every time she said these two words, endless joy filled his heart, and he wanted to pull this person into his arms and rub him hard.
He stretched out his hand to tug on her belt, Wei Lan pushed his hand away with a fan, glared and said: "This is in the guest room, don't mess around."
Xie Zichen nodded, Wei Lan let go of her guard, at this moment, Xie Zichen pulled her into his arms, quickly reached in and shook his hands, then bowed his head and kissed her.
There was a knock on the door outside, Wei Lan frowned dissatisfied, and Xie Zichen squeezed her.
Wei Lan's heart beat faster, nervous and excited, and Rong Hua's puzzled voice came from outside: "Wei Xiang, what happened? Wei Xiang, I'm coming in. Wei Xiang..."
The door was kicked open, Rong Hua stood at the door, coughing hastily, while the two people in the room had already changed their postures, one was sitting upright, and the other was helping to wipe his hair. Xie Zichen glanced over coldly, and said indifferently, "What's the matter, Your Highness?"
"The two didn't reply just now, I thought something happened to the two of you."
Rong Hua glanced over Wei Lan's water-colored lips, lowered his eyes, and coughed in a low voice: "I didn't expect that you two have your own business, so I'm bothering you. But, Mr. Xie, are you okay?"
"No problem."
"Then thank you, sir," Rong Hua raised the corners of his mouth, "is it time to come and discuss with me about my king's sister?"
Rong Hua is a person who is very good at changing identities. When talking with different people and on different occasions, he can freely change his own name. He usually has an extremely humble attitude, and usually calls himself "my lord", but when he calls himself "the king", he is extremely serious and cannot be vetoed.
Xie Zichen nodded, ready to get up. However, Wei Lan pressed his shoulders, raised her head with a smile, met Rong Hua's gaze and said, "Let's talk about this matter later."
After speaking, Wei Lan stood up, patted Xie Zichen on the head, and said gently, "Have a good rest, good boy."
Xie Zichen: "..."
Seeing Wei Lan going out, he was still a little worried, stood up and prepared to follow, Wei Lan turned her head, and said in a low voice: "Sit down!"
Xie Zichen froze when he got up.
She is probably still angry...
Forget it or listen to her.
Thinking about it, if it was me, my daughter-in-law saved other men from being involved in peach blossom debts, and I probably didn't want my daughter-in-law to have any entanglement with this matter at all.
Xie Zichen was very confident in Wei Lan's ability, so he sat obediently in the room, wearing Wei Lan's cloak.
What did Wei Lan tell him to do just now
oh rest.
Wei Lan and Rong Hua came outside the house, it was windy and snowy outside, Rong Hua was not in good health, Wei Lan stood beside Rong Hua, protecting him from the wind and snow outside.
"Is Your Highness Rong Ji okay?"
Wei Lan raised her hand to block a gust of wind, the wind blew her sleeves flying, but she protected Rong Hua very well, Rong Hua hardly felt the chill, he turned his head to the side, and only saw the young man's indifferent expression.
Few people have treated him so tenderly. Rong Hua recalled that he has always been taking care of others. In order to climb up, he has long learned to observe words and emotions, and his ability to handle people's hearts is second to none in Dijie's court. Because he is too smart, few people really treat him as a patient, and it is even more difficult to treat him as a weak person. For the person in front of her alone, no matter what he said or did, she didn't seem to care, and she always took care of him carefully and considerately.
"Your Highness?" Wei Lan asked subconsciously seeing that Rong Hua hadn't regained consciousness for a long time. Rong Hua withdrew his mind, lowered his eyes, stopped looking at the confusing skin, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Master Xie for saving, Rong Ji is fine."
"That's good," Wei Lan nodded, "I'll tell people to go down. Today, Mr. Xie saved a distant cousin of mine, Wei Lan. No one will know that the one who fell into the water today is Her Royal Highness. What does Your Highness think?"
"What do you mean?" Rong Hua stepped into the warm hall and said with a smile, "Are you planning to make Xie Zichen responsible?"
"Responsible for the woman who fell into the water, this is Da Chu's rule, not Di Jie's rule," Wei Lan said flatly, "Does Your Highness want to use this to rely on Xie Zichen?"
"But Rong Ji came to Da Chu to marry her." Rong Hua smiled and lay down on the reclining couch, as if she was a little tired: "We Di Jie don't care, do you Da Chu? Besides Xie Zichen, who else can Rong Ji marry now? "
"His Royal Highness Rong Hua," Wei Lan walked to Rong Hua's side, folded her hands in front of her body, looked down at him, and said calmly: "Let's be smart people, don't talk dark words, you talk so much to me, just to let me Help you, His Royal Highness Rong Hua wants Rong Ji to be the imperial concubine?"
Rong Hua didn't speak, just smiled.
Wei Lan sat on the couch, turned to look at him, and continued: "I can help His Highness Rong Hua, what will His Highness Rong Hua give in exchange?"
"You help me?" Rong Hua laughed out loud: "Then Wei Xiang doesn't have to worry about this, I think it is a good fortune for Rong Ji to marry Mrs. Xie. Rong Hua is no longer a concubine or something. Think too much."
"Really?" Wei Lan raised her eyebrows, Rong Hua raised her hand and took a sip of her tea, then said with a low smile, "Wei Xiang is really interesting, Wei Tong, let me explain that people don't speak secretly, but they hide their feelings. If I want Rong Ji to marry Xie Zichen, will Prime Minister Wei agree?"
"If Prime Minister Wei insists that Rong Hua offer something in exchange for Wei Xiang's help to assist Rong Ji to ascend to the position of imperial concubine, the exchange is probably that I will not let Rong Ji marry Xie Zichen."
"I don't know if this gift is enough? If not, Wei Xiang will give it a try and see if I really have this thought."
Wei Lan didn't speak. In fact, helping Rong Hua to put Rong Ji in the position of imperial concubine was originally what she planned to talk to Rong Hua about. She thought it was nothing if she could use this matter to exchange Xie Zichen's peace. When Rong Ji came to Dachu, it was most appropriate to put it in the Su White House, and she was worried about letting it go to anyone else.
Marrying a son of an aristocratic princess from a foreign race, there is no guarantee that she will not have other thoughts.
And after a while, Su Bai had a child, and it was time to go. With Su Bai gone, his imperial concubine would be meaningless, and it would be fine to find a reason to be buried with him. When the time comes, when Da Chu settles down and moves northward, Di Jie will have nothing to fear.
Now the alliance with Di Jie is just because Da Chu needs a few years of peace.
Wei Lan showed a hesitant look on her face, but she had already settled down in her heart. After a while, Wei Lan sneered: "Your Highness is just trying to figure out what I think about Mr. Xie."
"So, His Highness agreed?" Rong Hua picked up the tea and took a sip.
Wei Lan nodded, stood up and said, "His Royal Highness, don't worry, this matter will never leak out. As long as His Highness keeps his mouth shut, there will be no problems with His Majesty. Your Highness will wait for the enthronement ceremony in peace, and then watch Let His Royal Highness Rong Ji canonize you as an imperial concubine."
"To get such a promise from Minister Wei, Rong Hua is overjoyed." With a smile on his face, Rong Hua raised his teacup. Wei Lan made a displeased look, turned and left.
Then she entered the guest room and saw Xie Zichen sitting upright with his eyes closed and not moving. She couldn't help being a little puzzled: "What are you doing, Zichen?"
"Huh?" Xie Zichen opened his eyes in a daze, and when he realized what she asked, he smiled and said, "Rest."
Wei Lan froze for a moment, then understood what he meant, she couldn't help laughing, walked up to him, pulled him up, took his hand, then turned and left, "Let's go, I'll take you back."
"What did he want?"
Xie Zichen knew that Wei Lan and Rong Hua must have reached an agreement to resolve it so quickly. Seeing that he was wearing a cloak, Wei Lan turned to fasten the belt of the cloak for him, then straightened his clothes and said in a low voice: " I will help Rong Ji become a noble concubine."
"He really wanted that position." Xie Zichen sneered: "Did he think that there would be another Ronghua in the court of Great Chu?"
"Believe it or not," Wei Lan got into the carriage with him, "He wanted to calculate the date of Su Bai's death. Arranging Rong Ji in the harem is to wait for the day when he wants to send troops to Dachu, Rong Ji Ji cooperates with him internally and externally, and when the new emperor mourns and the government and the public are chaotic, he will come prepared, isn't it the best time?"
"Naturally it's the best time." Xie Zichen smiled, his eyes were cold: "He also thinks too beautifully."
Wei Lan took a sip of her hot tea, leaned against the car wall and looked at Xie Zichen opposite, with gentle eyes.
"Yes," she chuckled, "with the ministers here, how can it be Rong Hua's turn to criticize Da Chu."
Xie Zichen heard the teasing in her words, and immediately replied: "Miss Wei's words are serious, even if there is no Zichen, there will still be Xiang Wei?"
"Zichen's words are wrong." Wei Lan leaned over, lifted a bunch of black hair in his hand, and lowered her head to sniff.
"If you don't have a beautiful woman to accompany you all the time, you don't care about the mountains and rivers."
As she said that, Wei Lan raised her head, her bright eyes were full of Xie Zichen's appearance, and said softly: "I want to protect this big Chu river and mountain, and take care of this smoldering beacon fire because of Zichen's presence."
"What you said," Xie Zichen raised the corners of his mouth, with mockery in his eyes: "I'll just listen to it."
I didn't know who it was before, clamoring that I would rather separate than realize my ideal of revenge, and also go north to conquer those miscellaneous countries and restore the Han Dynasty.
Wei Lan heard the meaning of his words, and couldn't help but froze. After a while, she retreated to her position and sighed: "Zichen doesn't understand style."
"I don't know how to untie amorous feelings," Xie Zichen turned his head with a serious face: "I can only untie Luoshan."
Wei Lan: "..."
After Xie Zichen finished speaking, seeing that Wei Lan didn't reply, he finally felt that he had won the game, and a smile appeared on his face. Wei Lan couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Sir, be more reserved!"
"Hmm...reserved," Xie Zichen thought for a while, imitating Wei Lan's usual words, "This is not something we Dachu men should have."
Wei Lan: "..."
Learning is bad.
The two returned to Changxinhou Mansion all the way, Rong Ji changed her clothes and went to see Rong Hua.
Rong Hua drank tea, looked at the book, and said calmly: "Wang Xi taught you to do this?"
"no… "
Rong Ji was lying on the ground, trembling, and Rong Hua mocked: "Without Wang Xi, with your brain, you can still find Xie Zichen, force him to play with you, and use this method to force him to marry you?!"
"I didn't... not... on purpose..."
Rong Ji couldn't complete a sentence at all, and Rong Hua didn't bother to talk to her, so he said directly: "Go down and receive the punishment."
Thinking of the so-called "punishment" and the terrifying methods of this elder brother's subordinates. They won't leave any scars on your body, but they can make your life worse than death. Rong Ji began to kneel on the ground and kowtow, desperately saying: "I was wrong, brother, I was wrong."
"Go on." Rong Hua said calmly: "Longer memory, in the future you are going to be the Empress of Great Chu, the mother of the future Great Chu Emperor."
"What... what?" Rong Ji raised her head, stared blankly at Rong Hua, and hurriedly said, "Didn't Xie Zichen marry me?!"
"Xie Zichen?" Rong Hua sneered, "Let's make your spring and autumn dream come true! He is not someone you can imagine."
"No..." Rong Ji trembled: "I can even be a concubine, but I can't marry a Xie Zichen? You lied to me...you lied to me!"
"Am I lying to you?" Rong Hua said indifferently, "Don't you know? Rong Ji, he doesn't want you."
With that said, Rong Hua stood up, walked up to Rong Ji, and leaned over to stare at her.
"Rong Ji, remember well, your days today are because your brothers bullied me, so you live today's life. And your future days, from today onwards, you will be punished by me, you enter the palace, you You have to go through those conspiracies, you have to bear children for a man you don't love, all the darkness and misery in your life are given by Xie Zichen and Wei Lan."
Rong Ji knelt in a daze, Rong Hua lowered his head, clung to her ear, and said again: "Rong Ji, she doesn't want you, no one wants you except Di Jie."
"No!" Rong Ji screamed, reaching out to push the person in front of her away. But Rong Hua grabbed her hand, held her tightly, and said in a cold voice: "Remember, remember your Di Jie's princess, remember your identity, your dignity, and who gave you your beauty." Yours, your sins, your misery, who gave it to you."
Rong Ji froze in place, she didn't dare to make a sound.
Seeing her calm down, Rong Hua finally said, "Take her down."
Rong Ji was dragged down, that night she didn't struggle and shout like before, she was very quiet all the time, after being quiet and overcoming all the punishments, she was carried back to her bedroom, like an ordinary princess.
She lay quietly on the bed without saying a word. Wei Lan has come to perform her duties several times. Rong Ji counted the number of times Wei Lan came. It means that the time for her to enter the palace is getting closer.
She desperately wants her injury to get better, she wants to fight again, she doesn't want to put her fate in Ronghua's hands.
Being forced to come and get married is already her limit, she doesn't want to, never marry someone she doesn't like again. The children of Di Jie are all people who want to hold their fate in their hands. She is going to find Xie Zichen... She has to find a way...
Her injury was getting better day by day. Seeing that the enthronement ceremony was coming, she made all the plans the night before the enthronement ceremony, and then waited by the side of the corridor. She took out her dagger, and all the drugs her brother had left her.
She wore a black robe and came to the door. Before the guards could say anything, they smelled a strange fragrance and fell down.
Rong Ji rushed out of the door and ran out desperately.
She had inquired about it a long time ago, and it was even better to inquire about the location of the palace. She followed the address that she had drawn countless times in her mind, came to the gate of the palace, and slammed on the gate of the palace.
The people of the palace opened the gate and saw a woman caged in the night, they couldn't help frowning: "Who is the girl looking for?"
"I'm looking for Wang Xi."
Rong Ji suppressed her voice: "Tell him that I am the foreigner he helped."
The Wang family's family rules are strict, and there is no such thing as a dog's eyes looking down on people. The servant did not dare to neglect, and immediately said: "Miss, wait a moment."
Not long after, the gate of Wang's house was opened, and the servant led Rong Ji in. Seeing that it was indeed her, Wang Xi frowned and said, "What is your Highness doing?"
"I want you to help me." Rong Ji walked out of the night and said coldly, "I want to find Xie Zichen."
"Your Highness," Wang Xi lowered his voice, "Are you crazy?"
Wei Lan is now doing activities for Rong Ji everywhere in the palace, and bought off the most important eunuch around the emperor. It is no secret that Su Bai is interested in Rong Ji now. If it wasn't for the fact that Rong Ji claimed to be ill in the past few days, Su Bai would probably have died a long time ago. I want to talk to her about lovesickness.
But the more she didn't see Su Bai, the more Su Bai heard others say she was good, the more he missed her. Wang Xi knew that this was Rong Hua's way of teasing Su Bai's appetite, but no matter what, Rong Ji would enter the palace. Tomorrow was the time for her to officially meet Su Bai, but at this time she was going to find Xie Zichen
"I'm not crazy," Rong Ji's voice was exceptionally calm: "I don't want to marry someone I don't like, and I don't want to live a miserable fate like my mother. I won't succumb to fate, I'm going to find Xie Zichen."
"Either he marries me," Rong Ji took out a sharp knife from her bosom, her voice full of determination: "Either I kill him."
"The dignity of Rongji, the royal family of Dijie, cannot be trampled on by others. I may not want him, but he must not let me go."
Wang Xi looked at the girl coldly in the night.
He thought, this person has already been tortured by Rong Hua to the point of madness. Ronghua brought such a crazy woman to Dachu, so he might not be a lunatic.
However, the determination in her eyes was shocking. Looking at the dagger in her hand, Wang Xi suddenly thought of Lin Che who was soaked in blood in the dungeon.
Sadness overwhelmed him, almost drowning him. He told everyone that the past was over, but only he knew that some things would never pass, and some people would never forget.
"Go ahead."
Wang Xi closed his eyes, he was suddenly tired.
He beckoned and let a shadow guard come out.
"Take her to find Xie Zichen."
"Thanks."
Rong Ji turned around and walked a few steps. She stopped and said slowly.
"Whether you succeed or not, I will thank you, Wang Xi."
Wang Xi didn't speak.
He didn't need her thanks, it reminded him of his meanness, it embarrassed him.
The author has something to say:
[Demining]
Although I know that after getting used to characters above the average IQ, I would not like it when I suddenly see a princess below the average IQ, but for the diversification of the characters in the article and the needs of the plot, for the sake of her promoting the plot, I still have to bear with this character. princess. Anyway, this episode will be over soon.
Then we Zichen and Wei Lan can happily fight monsters together.
