Notes of Lanxi Crossing

117 Marriage
A gleam of light flashed across Song Lanshu's beautiful eyes, and after a few breaths of silence, she slowly smiled: "Who wouldn't want to take a glimpse of such a magnificent sight in the world?"

Lan Xi became happy and invited her to join her and Liu Shuhuan's secret team.

"Since we want to watch it, let's go and watch it. It's only a few years since we were young. It's a pity to miss it when it was time to play. At worst, we will hold hands and go around the periphery, so that we don't have to worry about being crowded out. .”

Song Lanshu still hesitated, but Lan Xi didn't allow her to hesitate any longer, and made the decision for her.

"That's it. It's settled. On the day of Lantern Festival, let's find an excuse to go back to the room and sneak out after dinner. Huanhuan will come to pick us up, and she will take care of the accompanying guards. We just need to take ourselves with us." .”

Song Lanshu was already a little moved, and with Lan Xi beating her hard, she finally agreed with half-push.

However, she still didn't agree with the plan of a few people to sneak away in private.

"Don't mention anything about sneaking away. I'll explain this to my mother. As long as you keep quiet, with my eldest brother and I around, nothing will happen."

Song Lanshu was resolute, no matter what Lan Xi said, he would not change his mind.

Helpless, Lanxi could only hang her heart high and wait for the second sister to convince her parents.

Fortunately, the second sister is not a person who talks nonsense, she said to persuade, and Liu Yunyao and Song Qinnian really agreed.

When Song Lanshu told Lan Xi the good news, the latter couldn't believe it.

"You're done? Isn't this too quick and easy?"

She thought that her mother would at least pull her, the mastermind behind the scenes, over to ask a question, and then there was still a long period of lingering days to go, but who knew that it was only the next day that the second sister told her that her parents had agreed .

"It's so unfair. If I were to talk about this, my mother would refuse without even bothering to raise my eyelids."

Lan Xi is right, it is precisely because the second daughter Song Lanshu is so reassuring that Liu Yunyao easily let go of her assurance. If it were the mischievous third son and youngest daughter, Liu Yunyao would definitely not agree easily .

Song Lanshu knew the ingenuity of this, and couldn't help laughing.

Although the parents' double standard favors themselves, it is indeed a bit unfair to the younger sisters, but it is only to blame them for being too much of a headache on weekdays, so I can't blame the parents for prejudice.

"Forget it, if things are done well, other things won't matter much." Lan Xi said generously that he didn't care.

"Don't forget to tell Huan'er about this, we're going there openly, there's no need to come secretly to meet you." Song Lanshu joked.

Lan Xi agreed: "Understood, I'll go later. I originally wanted to call the young lady and the others. Since you are all going, it will be easy to mess up if there are too many people. I can only play with them next time."

This time, she plans to go out with her brothers and sisters. Apart from herself, the eldest brother and the three brothers and sisters, plus Liu's eldest brother and Huanhuan, and the little cousin Jiang Yan who lives in the Song family cannot be lost. Yes, there are already seven people.

These seven people have their own maids and servants, and they are accompanied by at least two guards...

This is simply a group trip!
"It's up to you to decide." Song Lanshu didn't care who Lanxi's friends were, nor did she care about the other party's status.

In her opinion, as long as she is good enough, she doesn't have to care about other people's identities.

Song Lanshu doesn't pay much attention to status, but others don't think so.

"It stands to reason that the harem is not allowed to engage in politics. I don't know much about court affairs. I didn't expect that Lord Song and the prime minister would have such a relationship."

The queen lifted the golden hairpin in her bun and sighed.

"If he hadn't brought his sons and daughters to the door, the sons and daughters would be like others, thinking that he was just one of the prime minister's many disciples."

Song Qinnian didn't publicize the relationship between himself and Meng Wei, but he didn't deliberately conceal it either. It's just that Meng Wei, as the current prime minister, has countless people going to pay New Year's greetings every year, so there is no reason for the Song family to be involved. nothing special.

The two were a little surprised by this, but they didn't pay too much attention to it. The queen was even more troubled by another matter at this time.

"Your father told me yesterday that he received a New Year greeting letter from the northern general, which mentioned that the three kings of Beimu wanted to marry our princess Jingyan for his eldest son, your father... No reply yet."

There were only two princesses in the Jingyan dynasty, the eldest princess was married long ago, and Zhan Heng had only one princess, Zhan Jin, who had not yet grown up.

Zhan Jin and the crown prince's mother are the sons of the empress of the main palace, and their status is distinguished. With the strength of the Jingyan dynasty, there is no need for a princess to marry, but the emperor has not refused Beimu's request for a long time, which makes the empress worried.

What she is most afraid of is that Zhan Heng will be dissatisfied with his son Zhanxi's rebellion during this period of time. He uses Zhanxi's sister's marriage to warn and suppress him. Will pity her and her daughter.

Who told... the people he really valued never had their mother and daughter.

Thinking of this, the queen couldn't help feeling sad.

"Huang'er, you must not let your father give your concubine to Beimu, absolutely not!" The queen's eyes were fixed on Zhanxi, hoping that the other party would give a guarantee.

Zhanxi felt sorry for her mother, and hurriedly replied: "Don't worry, mother, as long as I am the emperor's brother, I will never let Jin'er's marriage be manipulated by others!"

Not only did he make a promise to the queen, but he also tried his best to comfort the disturbed queen mother: "Don't worry too much, what is the son of the three kings, who dares to miss the first princess of my dynasty, even for Jingyan's face, The emperor will not agree."

The queen didn't believe that Zhan Heng would marry Zhan Jin far away to Bei Mu, but she was disturbed by the emperor's silence, so she cared about it and became confused. After hearing Zhan Xi's comfort, she felt a little relieved.

"You're right. Not everyone can be worthy of Jin'er's status."

Zhanxi persuaded the queen, and felt that his speculation was not empty words.

He knew that his father had always had the ambition to own the territory of Beimu, and was as proud as he was, so how could he allow his daughter to marry the son of his future defeat.

The queen wanted to say something, but heard a slight sound from outside the bedroom, she frowned and stopped talking immediately.

"Who is outside?"

When she was discussing with her son, she would screen her left and right sides, and the palace people also knew her habit, so it was impossible for her to come in and disturb her at this time.

Could it be a spy in the imperial concubine's palace?

Such a guess emerged in the Queen's mind.

"The queen mother will wait for a while, and the son will go out and have a look." Zhanxi had the same thoughts as the queen, and got up to go outside to check.
