After Wei Lan cultivated for a few days, she could go to the ground. At this time, the prince was also welcomed back to Shengjing. On the day the prince returned to Beijing, the students went to the official road and joined the road to welcome him. Wei Lan put on crimson official robes, and together with Xie Zichen and Wang Xi, he led Baiguan to greet her.
Today, although Wei Lan and Xie Zichen are not high-ranking officials, Wang Ning's army is stationed here, and Huanheng's army is a hundred miles away. There is no aristocratic family who does not have long eyes and wants to confront them. Wang Xi was originally from a famous family and was the son of the Wang family. This time the prince returned to Beijing, he was also the first contributor. As the hope of the family against Wei Xie, the family naturally asked him to stand up and stand side by side with Wei Xie. .
Although the new emperor has not yet ascended the throne, everyone has seen the direction of the imperial court in the future, and there will be a three-legged power.
When the three of them stood in front of the palace gate, they heard the cheers of the students outside, and the harem gate slowly opened. Under the sun, three young men in the same crimson robes stood quietly, welcoming the arrival of the new emperor. . One of them is indifferent and noble, the other is pure and beautiful, and the other is elegant and elegant. When the palace door is opened, the sun pushes in with the palace door every inch, and then falls on the three young people. They originally came to watch the new emperor. Seeing this scene, the female relatives all exclaimed in exclamation, but the three young langs were not disturbed by the outside world, lifted the clothes, brought the full court civil and military, and knelt down respectfully.
"Long live my emperor, long live long live."
The three teenagers spoke loudly, and then the voices of the civil and military officials spread one after another like a wave.
Su Cheng was sitting alone in the sky cell. He heard the voice from a long distance. He didn't hear it very well, and he felt that he was close at hand.
"My emperor... Long live... Long live... Long live..."
Su Cheng laughed, and when he read this sentence, Mo Ming felt that he was so mocking.
The prince was sitting in the middle of Long Hu, and he couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
He shook his hands, his hands were wet.
He became emperor.
He had been thinking about it for so many years, thinking that he might not be able to get a position that might have exhausted his entire life, but he actually sat in it.
He didn’t know how big the gap between him and Su Cheng was back then. Su Cheng’s mother was the empress of the dynasty and his uncle was the prime minister of the dynasty. The grandfather of the town, Guogong, has nothing else.
When he was a kid sitting in the position of the prince, he sat trembling. For a long time, he even held the idea that one day would be one day.
But now he really sat in this position. He trembled slightly, listening to the voices of hundreds of officials outside, trying to calm himself down, then slowly rolled up the curtain and leaned out from the inside.
The scene calmed down. The prince cast his gaze on the palace gate, swept all the way across the hundreds of civil and military officials that had spread in the past, fell on the imperial road, and finally fell in front of the main hall gate.
Inside there is the Golden Throne, which is the end of his road.
He never felt that there was such a proud moment in his life. However, he also remembered who assisted him in this position. The night he fled was reminded by the people from Wei Lan that Xie Zichen and Wei Lan conspired to steal the jade seal of the country. Wang Ning was from Xie Zichen, and Huan Heng was Wei. Lan's people, the aristocratic family is controlled by the Wang family alone, he has achieved this position, and the three young people in front of him are indispensable.
So he walked down Long Hu, and walked to Xie Zichen, who had been following him, with red eyes, and pulled Xie Zichen and said, "Zichen, these days, I have suffered you!"
"It is the duty of a minister to be loyal to your majesty."
Xie Zichen spoke indifferently, the prince shook his head, his eyes fell on Wei Lan and Wang Xi, and he said with guilt: "It is my incompetence that made you suffer such a great grievance."
"Assisting the monarch, where is wronged?" Wei Lan smiled, with a little sadness in her eyes: "Moreover, I didn't do anything. The ones who really deserve to be rewarded are Master Ji and Gu Shangshu."
"Ji Shao and Gu Shangshu..." The prince showed a sad expression. Although he is not in Shengjing, he knows most of Shengjing's affairs. He sighed, "It's my fault. It's just the dead. , I can only make more compensation to the people who are alive. Zichen, Axi, Alan," the prince looked solemnly, and said in a voice that everyone could hear: "The three of you listened to it."
Everyone understands that this is to reward the three of them for their merits.
The three of them never thought that the prince would give them face like this, but he planned to show them in public. After looking at each other, he lifted his clothes and knelt down.
"The first emperor left without knowing it. When I was wronged by the prince, it was the three adults who made more plans for me, and endured the humiliation so far, so that I was able to vindicate my grievances, and the emperor of Chu was returned to orthodoxy. The three adults are all young talents, among the people. Dragon and Phoenix, now it’s the time when the Central Government is employing people, and I am not too far away from qualifications. I am not far from embarrassed by the qualifications. The merits are rewarded, and those who are able live in it. Xie Zichen, the prime minister of the imperial history, enters the Shangshutai. It is the second grade of official residence; Changxin The elder of the Hou Mansion, Wei Lan, made up for the vacancy of Shangguan Guocheng, the right minister, and the first grade of official residence; the chief of the Jin Department Wang Xi made up the vacancy of the former Shangshu Lin Che of the penalty department and Gu Chen, the former Shangshu Shangshu of the original Ritual Department. Second grade."
After the prince finished speaking, he raised his hand, and the next to him read out the decree of the appointment. After the three of them received the decree one by one, they couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Wei Lan always thought that after this incident, Xie Zichen should be the biggest winner. However, when the emperor's crown prince Su Bai issued the imperial decree, it was her Wei Lan who was the last to be the right minister, which made people a little difficult. Caught.
But all these thoughts are in their hearts, and they don't show any signs on their faces. After everyone respectfully welcomed the emperor back to Beijing, a feast was held that night. Wei Lan was injured. It is not suitable to drink at the banquet. Xie Zichen was also recovering from his serious injury. Two sick seedlings leaned aside, pulling Wang Xi to stop the two of them. .
Huan Heng’s envoys have also arrived in Shengjing. Wei Lan glanced at the Huan family’s retainer, Huan Ling. He grew up with Huan Heng when he was young. If he hadn’t come to Huan Heng to alienate Shengjing for a few years, he The relationship with Huan Heng is probably no less than Yu Lan. He was sitting on the wine table, his face with a scar was always upright. Emperor Su Bai looked from a distance, holding a wine glass, his eyes a little drunk, and Wei Lan spoke with him: "Look at that brash man in the north, you are just looking at infiltrating people."
Wei Lan knew that Su Bai was drunk. If he is not drunk, he must not dare to say such things in front of her.
He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his words. He looked up at Wei Lan's beautiful face under the lights, and sighed: "Prime Minister Wei had an amazing appearance when he was young, and now he gets older. The more compatible the Cheng is, the more beautiful it is than a woman."
"Your Majesty is drunk." Wei Lan said lightly, and Su Bai sighed, then looked at Huanling, and said with some emotion: "Is Prime Minister Wei a little surprised today?"
"What does your majesty mean?"
"Actually, the position of the prime minister is not owned by the prince." He raised his eyes to look at her, with a little helplessness in his eyes. He was not a hard-lined person, and he expressed his dissatisfaction so tactfully. After thinking about it in her heart, Wei Lan understood what the prince was going to say. As expected, the prince continued: "But just the night before, Huanling came to me to discuss the Huazhou tax and taxes with me, and then talk to me. In fact, a quarter of Huazhou’s taxes is enough to give to the Huan family. After all, Wei Shizi is still an official in the court. The Huan family has always been a loyal minister of Chu. They can get their own military payment. Don't bother the court. What do you mean by him?"
Su Bai smiled bitterly: "The Huan family is Da Chu's courtier one day in the middle of the court. Are you gone? He said that one-half of the tax will be given to him, and now it has become a quarter. Isn't this obvious enough? They gave me such a big advantage, and they repeatedly mentioned the name of Wei Shizi. If I don't understand this, then I'm a fool."
Wei Lan didn't speak, she just listened quietly.
The Huan family has always been this temperament, the southern court, the emperor, they have always been dismissive and careless. If anyone else came, even Wang Ning would speak more tactfully and better, but the Huan family would not.
He was about to stop talking as much as possible, and then laughed helplessly at the other person, shaking with anger.
According to Huan Song's words-they were in exchange for their lives at the border, these people are still beating their children every day behind their backs, and they have to give them good looks. Why?
After Huanheng took office, he fully carried forward the fine traditions of Huan Song, and even took it to the next level. On the issue of dealing with the South, if not everyone knew about the brotherhood between Huanheng and Wei Lan, if they knew that Wei Lan was a Women, I'm afraid that they will all curse, because they are attracted by beauty.
But Wei Lan clearly knew that Huanheng was not such a person.
He may have been naive, but when he planned everything, watched her fight in the Tang family, and silently put her under house arrest, she would no longer dare to underestimate this person's mind. Later, she also sent people to inquire about what Huan Heng had done over the years. She was completely a character who pretended to be a pig and eat a tiger.
In this way, Huan Heng publicly sought a position for her. On the one hand, there may be a bit of past friendship, but more, it is a warning.
Her Wei Lan belongs to the Huan family and will always be included in the Huan family's sphere of influence. How much others hate the power of the Huan family, and how much they hate Wei Lan who was promoted through this.
He used this seemingly absurd way to bind Wei Lan and the Huan family together forever. Even if she is willing to abandon the Huan family to surrender to the emperor now, which emperor can forget the humiliation brought by the arrogance of the Huan family?
Letting a quarter of Huazhou's tax revenue bind her Wei Lan and the Huan family tightly. For this move, Wei Lan wanted to applaud Huan Heng. He is really a fast-growing person. If she didn't trap him back then, he didn't follow her to Shengjing, and he wouldn't rely on her for everything...
Wei Lan couldn't help but feel a little far away.
He is probably a great hero now.
"Wei Shizi," Su Bai sighed and said with emotion: "If Wei Shizi is a daughter, I almost think that Huan Heng will love Wei Shizi deeply."
"Your Majesty was joking," Wei Lan returned to her senses and slowly said, "Huan Heng's move is nothing more than a separation between you and me, the monarch and ministers. Of course, Wei Lan and Huan Heng are brothers, but before that, Wei Lan was first Your majesty’s courtier is Wei Lan next."
"If you talk about love," Wei Lan smiled: "The love between the Three Highnesses and Wei Lan was not much less than that of Huan Heng, but it is a big mistake. In the face of the family and the country, Wei Lan will not choose the wrong way. Your Majesty is Wei. Lord of Lan," Wei Lan looked at Su Bai solemnly: "Your Majesty, don't worry."
"Actually, I am very curious," the prince frowned, "Why are you betraying the third brother? I heard that the third brother loves Alan very much."
"Your Majesty," Wei Lan looked at the dancing concubine Ji, and said slowly: "A Lan also has a wish, one day, to see the people of Da Chu in peace, regain the Northland, and restore the Han Dynasty."
Su Bai was stunned, Wei Lan turned around and stared at Su Bai, her eyes full of eagerness.
"Wei Lan needs a monarch who can do this."
"Do you think..." Su Bai was a little unbelievable: "Can I?"
"Why can't your Majesty?" Wei Lan asked back, Su Bai was taken aback, and then infinite pride surged in his heart: "Yes, I can. I will not let you down! A Lan," Su Bai eagerly held Wei Lan's hand. The vice-jun and ministers looked at the tears in their hands, and said excitedly: "I will not live up to Ah Shao's death, nor will I live up to your expectations, one day, I will..."
"His Majesty!"
Xie Zichen, who was talking to Wang Xi just now, saw Subbai holding Wei Lan holding on to him as soon as he turned his head. He was angry on the spot. But because the other party was the emperor, Xie Zichen suppressed his anger, so he could only raise his voice, and then took the emperor's hand, held it in his own hand, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, the minister is drunk when seeing you, but he has to rest. ?"
Su Bai was taken aback for a moment, but said: "No need."
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to discuss with Prime Minister Wei..."
"You go," Su Bai immediately understood what Xie Zichen meant, and nodded: "You don't need to ask for instructions so cautiously for such trivial matters. Zichen, you and I are the same as before, and you don't need to have any grudges because of your status changes."
"Your Majesty is a monarch, and your subordinates are ministers, so naturally they are different."
Xie Zichen spoke respectfully, and then when he turned his head, he saw Ruan Kangcheng coming over drunk, putting him on Wei Lan's shoulder, drunk: "Alan, there is a dancer today..."
"Ruan Kangcheng!"
Xie Zichen walked over immediately and threw Ruan Kangcheng towards Wang Xi without a trace. Wang Xi was also too drunk, and suddenly caught a Ruan Kangcheng, opened her eyes dimly, and saw Xie Zichen lingering pressure all over her body, and said blankly, "Brother Zichen, what's wrong?"
"Pull him back, he is drunk!"
Xie Zichen found that this kind of banquet was too dangerous, really too dangerous!
Wang Xi didn't say much, seeing that Xie Zichen's expression was wrong, he pulled Ruan Kangcheng out. Ruan Kangcheng said in a daze, "Axi, how do I feel that Xie Zichen is really guarding against Alan, and he is getting sicker and sicker?"
"Don't care about him," Wang Xi waved his hand and sent Ruan Kangcheng out, hesitating: "Don't worry about them."
After driving away Su Bai and Ruan Kangcheng, Xie Zichen didn't leave. He simply sat beside Wei Lan and used his powerful aura to drive everyone away. All the toasts walked in the direction of Wei Lan, and halfway through, they felt the silent threat and resentment of Xie Zichen, haha smiled and walked away.
Wei Lan calmed down for a while, and she couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Zichen, your vinegar is really about to turn over."
"They are all men!"
Xie Zichen said coldly: "Can you have a little awareness of being a woman?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Lan smiled and curled her eyebrows. She shook her fan and turned her head, her eyes were slightly cold. "Could you tell me what is a woman's consciousness?"
"Have you seen me and a woman on my back?" Xie Zichen knelt down and sat upright, staring coldly: "There is a difference between men and women, you give me a little restraint!"
Wei Lan: "..."
It feels so reasonable, but I can't refute it.
Wei Lan changed the subject, and the two of them said this, seeing that the banquet was about to end, Su Bai was a little tired, and retired early. After Su Bai left, Huan Ling suddenly stood up. Walking straight towards Wei Lan, Xie Zichen looked cold, but the other party was unmoved. He came directly to Wei Lan, knelt down on one knee, and after a northern military salute, he took out a wooden box from his arms and solemnly said: "The Marshal failed to come this time, and specifically ordered Huanling to bring this thing to General Wei."
He stubbornly refused to call Wei Lan Master Wei, as if he was using this title to remind something. Wei Lan smiled, letting Ranmo take the box from the side. Stained ink on his hand and confirmed that there was nothing wrong, then placed it in front of Wei Lan and opened it for Wei Lan.
Inside is a dagger inlaid with precious stones. This is a drawing she drew when she was 13 years old. Huan Heng once said that he would cast it for her by himself, but as Huan's son, how could he have time to learn this? So it has been shelved for so many years.
She still remembered what Huan Heng said at that time.
"You and I are brothers. What's wrong with me giving you a dagger? Not only do I want to give you a dagger, but I'm also willing to give you this world."
"Alan, how long can you and I be brothers?"
At that time, he asked her, she teased him, and said: "It depends on how long the dagger you made will last. If it breaks when you get it, you and I have no brotherhood. If it is still as sharp as ever after a hundred years, after that hundred years, Your brotherhood is still the same as before."
She didn't expect that he really cast this dagger.
Seeing Wei Lan's stunned appearance, Xie Zichen knew that this was something from Wei Lan and Huan Heng's memories. His heart was sour and sour. He knew that the traces of some people were hard to obliterate, especially Huan Heng's sudden change. The feeling of ending, it is difficult to end without one thing.
Wei Lan is over now, but what about Huanheng?
He is still in the north, still trapped in the past.
Wei Lan looked at the dagger and listened to Huanling: "The marshal said, the world's number one swordsman, Metallurgical Zi, said that this dagger, even after a hundred years, can still cut iron like mud. He made the dagger. Promise, do you remember General Wei?"
Wei Lan's expression moved, she drew out her dagger and said lightly: "Naturally I remember it."
"But, I remember the promise that year, do Marshal really remember?" Wei Lan sneered: "Also ask General Ling to go back and tell Marshal Huan. If you really care about brotherhood, don't do anything that embarrass me. thing."
"If General Wei hadn't betrayed the heart of the North, what the Marshal did would not be considered embarrassing." Huanling replied neither humble nor overbearing: "The Huan family will be the eternal backing of General Wei. If General Wei is not rebellious and supported by the Huan family, Why should you embarrass yourself?"
"Stupid!" Wei Lan said coldly: "Be prepared for danger in times of peace, and be prepared for the rain. The Huan family is so presumptuous and making enemies everywhere. It is simply unreasonable. You squander the reputation and strength of the Huan family because you think that the Huan family has too few enemies? "
"What if there are enemies?" Huanling sneered: "When have my Huan family's children ever been afraid? Is it that General Wei is afraid?"
"I'm afraid." Wei Lan said decisively: "Wei Lan was never a good soldier, but a politician."
Huanling didn't expect Wei Lan to answer like this. After a daze, he said coldly: "The Marshal really misunderstood you!"
Wei Lan didn't speak, she didn't want to have such a dispute with Huanling. Huan Heng would not hurt him to say such a thing, and now he would not mind what she did. After all, he didn't care what she did. He didn't expect her, he just needed to do what he had to do.
She didn't want to entangle these things with Huanling anymore, she felt a little tired, and changed the subject: "Why didn't Ah Heng get up in person this time?"
He personally led the team to besiege Shangguan's home, not long from Shengjing, why not come?
"The marshal said that the north is uneven, and he has no face to see General Wei."
Huanling was a little depressed. Wei Lan nodded. At the beginning, Huanheng said that he would see her again after he grows up. Now he hasn't calmed down the north, she knocked the palm of her hand with a small fan, and then said, "Now... he can Okay?"
"General Wei also understands the situation in the north. There is nothing good, day after day. It is the little son who is learning to walk now, he is energetic, and the marshal has a headache."
Hearing this, Wei Lan was slightly taken aback, and suddenly felt that Huan Heng seemed to be far away from herself. Huanling didn’t notice Wei Lan’s look, and then said,
When the wife gave birth to a small family, everyone was gone. The Marshal buried his wife and Tang family together. They didn’t enter the Huan family’s ancestral grave. Now, the old man takes care of himself. With the child, we all persuaded him to marry a woman to look after the child, but what did he say..."
"Wrong once, can't be wrong again?"
Huan Ling frowned and didn't understand. Wei Lan didn't speak. Xie Zichen saw that the topic was skewed, and finally said: "It's late, and Prime Minister Wei is tired. Please come back, General Ling."
"It's still early……"
"Please go back."
Xie Zichenguo opened his mouth to give away and threw his eyes like a knife. At the same time, he reached out to help Wei Lan. Wei Lan is not in good health now, and she is indeed tired after sitting for so long, and at this point, she also felt that there was nothing to say, so she waved her hand and said goodbye to Huanling. Huanling watched the two people walking away blankly. He didn't quite understand. He always felt that these two people looked weird and said to others: "Do you think the atmosphere of General Wei and Lord Xie is weird?"
"Huh? Why is that weird?"
"It just feels..." Huanling frowned, watching Wei Lan and Xie Zichen chatting and laughing, Xie Zichen carefully supported her, paying attention to her surroundings at all times, and even when she crossed the threshold, she lifted the dress, Huanling said a little uneasy: " It feels like two people have been married for many years."
People around: "..."
How dare to say such things, scared, super scared.
Wei Lan went out of the palace with Xie Zichen. After getting on the carriage, she finally said, "Are you unhappy?"
Xie Zichen looked flat and looked up at her: "When are you going to retire?"
Wei Lan was taken aback for a moment, and then heard Xie Zichen say: "Alan, this is not your time anymore. The court is full of men. You have to face these in one day. I can't guard you every day, and you can't be true. That’s how it’s mixed with men every day..."
"Get out." Wei Lan said coldly, Xie Zichen was taken aback for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at her.
Wei Lan's eyes were cold, Xiao Fan pointed to the door and said coldly, "Go down!"
"So you plan to stay in this position for the rest of your life?"
Xie Zichen looked at her quietly: "Don't mind what I think, and don't mind what the world thinks. You don't plan to have children. If you don't plan to marry me, you plan to let the world think that we two are broken sleeves. Fooling around?"
"Do you mind?" Wei Lan sneered: "Then when you didn't know I was a woman, wouldn't you mind?"
"I mind." Xie Zichenguo broke up: "If it's just fame, if you just want to live with you for a lifetime, I can bear it or don't mind. But if you want me to see you in a group of men all day long, Wei Lan, I It's also a man, I mind."
"Then you can go." Wei Lan smiled and said softly: "I won't stop you. Xie Zichen, I can't leave the court, you have to be clear about this. If you mind, it's your business, if I mind if you go to the court , Will you give up everything you have done and then retreat behind me?"
Xie Zichen was taken aback for a moment and saw the smile on Wei Lan's pale face.
Smile as if crying.
"What do you think I did so hard for? Just to be a Mrs. Xie? Xie Zichen," Wei Lan opened her clothes, revealing her shoulder wounds.
"I have wounds all over my body. I came to this world at the age of seven and started working hard. I worked so hard to make myself better. I went to the battlefield at the age of twelve and experienced blood and blood. I was deliberate and deliberate. The man backs down? Don’t you find it ridiculous?"
"Daughter is going everywhere, if you want, I can marry you, if you want to go, I won't stop you."
"Then what if I ruin you?" Xie Zichen said coldly. He clenched his fists and his hands trembled with anger.
It's all reached today.
Having reached the current situation, Wei Lan kept talking about loving him and trusting him. As a result, between power and him, she still chose power without hesitation.
She let him go, so she could speak so coldly and calmly.
Do you really like me?
Do you really love me?
Countless questions came to my mind. Her defensiveness, her distrust surged. Su Cheng's words echoed in his mind.
"Master Xie, Alan keeps such a big secret from you, right?"
He didn't want to care.
He told himself that the past was not important and he should look forward, so he suppressed the matter and gagped with her. But he knew clearly, how could he not care about this matter?
He told her everything. He didn't hide anything. He loved this person so frankly and so sincerely, but this person could watch his struggles and hardships coldly.
It took him so long and energy to accept that Wei Lan was a man. Such hard work, he thought it should be regarded as a sincere feeling. In Wei Lan's heart, probably nothing?
That's why you can not cherish or care.
Xie Zichen squeezed his fist, stared at Wei Lan, and said with a vengeful voice: "If I tell you that you are a woman, what will you do?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Lan smiled indifferently.
"Winner and loser," she said calmly: "Zichen, if you really want to do this, how many ways do you think I can choose?"
"Then what path do you choose?"
"Zichen, don't ask some questions," Wei Lan whispered softly, just like saying, "Injury."
"Wei Lan!!!" Xie Zichen finally couldn't control his emotions, and roared: "You have no conscience!"
"Then how do you want me to have a conscience?" Wei Lan leaned on the wall and looked at him quietly: "I must fold my wings and wings, I must retreat behind you, I must give up everything. This makes me have a conscience?"
Wei Lan couldn't hold back his emotions, and shouted angrily: "Xie Zichen, ask yourself, can you do it for you?!"
"In your bones, you still think of me as a woman in this world, right?" She sneered: "Still thinking, I enter the court, I will be the son of the world, I am forced to walk today, all due to the situation. It's all because it's too miserable as a woman. I want to fight for freedom. It's all to protect Changxinhou's mansion or to protect others. I am not voluntary and I have no ambitions. What ambitions can a woman have? What structure can a woman have? Husband is her god. The most important thing in her life is to have children and seek her husband’s favor. That’s probably what you think in your heart?"
Xie Zichen didn't speak, he couldn't deny it.
No matter how he tried to understand Wei Lan, he couldn't imagine that a woman really lived like a man.
Wei Lan smiled slightly and said mockingly: "It's okay, I understand, because for a long time, I thought so too."
"What ambition can a man have? A pet can forget his surname. I have had this idea before, and even put it on your fourth son, so I would think that you can control it. , I pursue you, and sooner or later I can marry you."
"But Zichen," Wei Lan sighed and said tiredly: "I have changed. For so many years, I have been with you to grow up. I look at your lives and see how people like Ah Shao can believe in themselves. By going to death generously, I understand that ideals and ambitions never distinguish between men and women, and love and marriage are never necessary."
"Zichen, why can't you understand?"
"I understand." Xie Zichen said hoarsely: "But I can't bear it. I can't bear watching you talk to them, watching them covet your eyes, watching you hook your shoulders and back."
"And you can be so plain, so calm, and let me go so calmly," Xie Zichen looked up at her and said with red eyes: "I can't bear it even more."
Wei Lan was taken aback for a moment. Xie Zichen didn't know what was going on. Looking at this person's calm expression, he felt so aggrieved. He turned his head with red eyes and felt that if he stayed for a while, tears would fall.
He stopped the carriage, raised the curtain and said, "I'm leaving."
After speaking, he jumped out, Wei Lan did not speak, she sat quietly in the carriage.
He thought she was calm and calm, but she was just used to it.
Let him go, she will be reluctant and sad, but what can she do?
When a woman enters the court disguised as a man, it is her who is abnormal, so it is him who faces more difficulties and problems. If he can't accept it, she can't really break her arm for him.
This is not a question of love or not, this is the bottom line. An ambitious and ideal Wei Lan is herself. If she is willing to give up her belief and life for Xie Zichen, is she still Wei Lan?
Losing herself for a love, no matter how beautiful, precious, and intoxicating this kind of love, she would rather not.
Wei Lan was a little tired and leaned on the carriage. The carriage moved for a while, and suddenly someone stopped it. Wei Lan frowned and listened to the humanity outside: "Wei Shizi, Your Highness III wants to see you."
Wei Lan looked terrified. Now that Su Cheng is locked up in the sky prison, he can still let people share words with her, which shows his ability.
"His Royal Highness sees me, what do you want to do?"
Su Cheng stabbed the knife, and the wound still hurts so far. Wei Lan had to watch out for this person. What if she lied to her and died?
Why can't this man do?
"Your Highness can rest assured," the guard said, "He won't harm you. He has something important to tell you."
Wei Lan was silent for a moment, and finally said, "Go."
Then the direction of the carriage was changed to the jail, and after walking for a while, Wei Lan was finally in jail.
Although Sioux City was defeated, his prestige was still there, and he was still able to live in prison, but he was not too embarrassed. When Wei Lan passed by, he was wearing the usual red robe and wearing a golden crown, sitting in the prison, waiting for her quietly.
After Wei Lan waved his hand, after letting everyone go down, standing in front of the cell door, she didn't know what to say for a while.
She always feels a bit guilty about Sioux City. Su Cheng really treated her well, she knew it in her heart; he also really admired her, she knew too. It is precisely because of this that she has not dared to see him for so long after betraying Su Cheng.
It wasn't that I had done something wrong. With Su Cheng's character, it was indeed not suitable to be a monarch.
It's just that sometimes, no matter whether the other party is good or bad, when he gives you wholeheartedly with his heart, he will always be a little moved. So Wei Lan just instructed people not to embarrass him, take care of him, other than that, there is nothing left.
Su Cheng has lost a lot of weight, but his expression is not haggard, as if he was the prince and nobleman when I saw him at the beginning of the year, and looked romantic and noble.
He sat cross-legged, Wei Lan didn't care whether the ground was clean or not, she sat down calmly, and then smiled and said, "Your Highness."
"I have invited you many times, but you didn't come. Xie Zichen stopped, right?" Su Cheng's eyes were clear, Wei Lan smiled, and said with some doubts: "His Royal Highness insists on seeing me, what do you want to do?"
"It's nothing," Su Cheng looked at her quietly, and said gently: "I have always wanted to say a few words with Alan, but the relationship between you and me is not a ruler or an enemy. For so many years, I haven't said it properly. After a few words, every time I think about it, I feel very sorry."
Wei Lan did not speak, but listened quietly. Su Cheng watched her and slowly said, "I like Alan. I have always liked Alan for many years. But when I was young, the more I liked Alan, the less Dare to speak out, I just want to bully Alan and attract Alan's attention."
Speaking of these past events, Wei Lan couldn't help but laugh, remembering how Su Cheng was always dissatisfied with her when she was still in school.
"His Royal Highness at that time always cursed and helped her on one side. Many times she didn't know whether His Royal Highness was right, whether he liked it or hated it."
"Then why don't you ask?"
"I asked. At that time, His Highness might not give me the correct answer, so what did I ask?"
"Yes," Su Cheng nodded, and said bitterly: "It took me so long to realize that I like Alan."
Wei Lan was taken aback for a moment, and then showed a gentle expression: "Xia Xia is very grateful for your kindness."
"But you can't respond."
Su Cheng took the next sentence, but Wei Lan did not speak. This was her basic respect for her admirer.
Even if you don't love him, you shouldn't trample on this intention.
"Alan," Su Cheng sighed, "If you could not be so gentle, that would be great."
Wei Lan did not speak. After a while, she slowly said, "I'm sorry."
She was the first to blame for Su Cheng's feelings.
You shouldn't pick others at will when you are young and ignorant. No matter what Su Cheng is, Su Cheng is not wrong in his feelings towards her.
Su Cheng did not answer the conversation. After a moment of silence, Su Cheng sighed: "The past is over, so let's do it. I asked Alan to come. Actually, I have something to ask for."
"His Royal Highness, please speak."
Wei Lan spoke solemnly, and Su Cheng slowly said, "I hope A Lan can help me save Shangguan's house and my family."
Wei Lan couldn't help being stunned. Su Cheng asked her. She thought it was just a trivial matter, but she was no longer in charge of keeping Shangguan's house and his family. Azure couldn't help frowning: "His Royal Highness..."
"I have 30,000 private troops."
Su Cheng said indifferently: "There is still a private library outside. The weapons and food in the private library are enough to support these 30,000 troops for three years. In addition, I have hidden lines all over the country.
Upon hearing this, Wei Lan stood up solemnly and swept away her lax attitude.
The private army was thirty thousand, which meant that if Su Cheng reported his feelings of death, it would also be a small upheaval.
And now
