Qing Lian calmly stepped forward and bowed to King Yiluo, then got up and turned her head to look around.
Seeing Ling Xiao and the others sitting on the honored seats, she looked a little surprised, but she seemed to be expecting it. She should have guessed that Ling Xiao and the others would find Yiluo Kingdom, but she didn't expect it to be so quick.
Seeing that Qinglian came back in time, the eldest prince and the second prince were visibly relieved.
Ling Xiao smiled meaningfully, did the two of them relax a bit earlier?
Just as he was about to speak, Qing Lian was the first to apologize and said: "The little girl was just discussing with the envoy of the Dawei Kingdom about the transaction of the Dawei Liangju, and she came a bit late. Please forgive me."
There was a very natural smile on her face, but those bright and charming eyes were full of pleading, which made Ling Xiao speechless.
Yun Jinghu also paused for a second, then turned to look at Shen Lingjun.
Shen Lingjun pursed the corners of her lips, showing a calm smile: "Princess Qinglian is so busy that she can't see her head and tail, it's not unusual."
Qing Lian looked at Shen Lingjun, her eyes gradually became pleasantly surprised.She walked up to Shen Lingjun in a few steps, looked up and down, and raised her voice joyfully: "Brother Lingjun? It's you? I haven't seen you for a few years, are you okay?"
The corner of Shen Lingjun's mouth twitched slightly, haven't seen him for several years?Didn't they see each other for a few hours?
However, out of prudence, he still nodded with a light smile, acquiescing to Qing Lian's remarks.
Qing Lian's acting skills can be said to be superb, and from the perspective of King Yiluo, there is nothing wrong with it.
He stroked his beard and laughed: "The lonely king knows that you will be happy to see Mr. Shen."
"Master Shen?" Qing Lian looked at Shen Lingjun pretending to be puzzled.
King Yiluo nodded and laughed loudly: "You don't know yet, do you? Your brother Lingjun is now the Minister of Weaving in Tongzhou in the Yong Dynasty. here."
Qing Lian glanced at several people with complicated expressions, and after a while there was a smile on her face again: "In this case, it is even more important to entertain them well. Father, in my opinion, it is better to arrange a few distinguished guests in Lanzhou. Is Yuege resting?"
"Lanyue Pavilion..." King Yiluo showed a little hesitation on his face.
"Lanyue Pavilion is relatively close to the palace, and it is quite quiet at night. It happens to be close to my daughter's Qingyue Pavilion, so it is convenient for us to move around without delaying important events. What do you think, Father?" asked rhetorically.
King Yiluo seemed to be moved by Qinglian's words, and immediately nodded: "Then let's do it like this."
"It's said that my daughter has the liberty to arrange for distinguished guests to live in Lanyue Pavilion, will the queen mother not be angry?" Qing Lian blinked, her charming eyes filled with innocence, "It would be inappropriate to make the queen mother unhappy because of these things gone."
Seeing that everyone in the hall was looking at him, King Yiluo waved his hand and said simply: "It's okay, your queen mother is not such a stingy person, she won't be angry about such a small sesame seed, don't worry, lonely king Just go tell her."
For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall was incomparably harmonious.
The song was strong and the dance was beautiful. After watching it for an hour or two, King Yiluo also showed fatigue on his face, so he withdrew early.
His figure is really too rich, even if he wants to get up and leave, he can't do it. He can only stand up with the support of two sturdy guards.
Seeing a large group of maids escorting King Yiluo out of the stage like stars holding the moon, Qing Lian drank the fine wine for a while, then waved her hand and ordered the singing and dancing to break up.
Even the two princes obediently bid farewell and left under the gaze of their sisters.
For a moment, there were only a few people left in the bustling hall just now, and they were all old acquaintances who had been separated for less than twelve hours.
"Princess Qinglian, what else do you want to say to me?" Shen Lingjun casually pushed away the glass wine bottle in front of her.
Qing Lian almost drank most of the wine in the glass flagon in front of her, and then looked at Shen Lingjun with drunken eyes, with resentment and grievance in her eyes: "Brother Lingjun, is he going to ask me to blame my teacher?"
Shen Lingjun: "..."
He didn't expect this little girl to use this trick when she came up, is this completely a rascal!
This little girl was clearly sure about it, since he was a child, he had nothing to do with her being coquettish, so he wanted to get away with it.
But now this matter is not related to the two of them, even His Majesty the Emperor and the Holy Queen are involved, even if he intends to cover up, it is impossible for Qing Lian to really succeed in her plan in front of the two Holy Kings.
Shen Lingjun turned to look at Yunjing Lake.
Yun Jinghu was not good at parrying the girl's pear-blossoming rainy eyes, he coughed dryly and said: "Master Shen, since you and Princess Qinglian are old acquaintances, I will give you this face. Tomorrow morning, you will Report to me when I have clarified the matter. It is getting late today, so we will go to rest first. Princess Qinglian, please find two people to guide us."
Princess Qinglian smiled, and immediately recruited the maids beside her, and specially instructed to send the distinguished guests to Lanyue Pavilion.
"Your majesty... Your lord, you can't leave me alone." Seeing the three of them leaving with the maid, Shen Lingjun looked slightly flustered, and got up to chase them out.
He just took a step, and Qing Lian stepped forward with a wine glass: "Brother Ling Jun, Qing Lian has come to apologize, and I hope my brother will not be angry."
Shen Lingjun looked at the backs of the three people in front who were walking faster and faster, and knew that today's matter had to be resolved by himself.
He sighed helplessly in his heart, turned around and warned Qinglian very seriously: "Girl, you also know the identity of Your Majesty, but the one next to him can't be offended. Your wanton actions. But only this matter, you must give an explanation."
Qing Lian blinked, and kept holding the wine cup in her hand: "Brother Ling Jun has to drink Qing Lian's apology wine first, and then I will tell you everything in detail, okay?"
"Not good." Shen Lingjun refused expressionlessly.
Qing Lian looked at him flatteringly: "Brother Lingjun is really angry with me? But you said before that no matter what I did wrong, I would never be angry with me. Brother, you broke your promise."
Shen Lingjun frowned slightly: "Girl, I know that you have been high-minded since you were young, and you don't bother with conspiracy and schemes, so it was not your intention to do such a thing. But you have to know that the matter of the fish is of great importance, and Mo Yun's You are the most trusted person around His Majesty, what is the relationship between the two of you? Why did you join hands to steal the squid? If you refuse to tell me the truth, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep you when the deadline comes tomorrow."
After hearing this, Qing Lian was silent for a moment and still looked at Shen Lingjun stubbornly: "Then you drink this glass of wine first, and then listen to me."
Shen Lingjun glanced at Qing Lian suspiciously: "You insist on me drinking, this glass of wine..."
Without further ado, Qing Lian raised her head and drank the fine wine in the glass, and then poured another glass in front of Shen Lingjun: "My brother didn't trust me because I did it myself, now you should believe that I really want to make amends, right?" ?”
Seeing the little girl's hurt expression, Shen Lingjun's heart softened, and without saying a word, he took a sip of the fine wine Qing Lian handed over for the second time.
A smile appeared on Qing Lian's face. After she put down the wine glass, she held Shen Lingjun's hand very familiarly, and sat with him on the soft chair in the hall.
"To be honest, Mo Yun and I stole that squid together to save people." Seeing that Shen Lingjun's Leng Jun's expression eased a lot, Qing Lian said softly.
"Save people? Save whom?" Shen Lingjun subconsciously asked, "Your Majesty and Saint...Senior are both kind and chivalrous people, if you really want to save people, just ask for help, they may not help you, Why bother to use such calculations?"
Qing Lian fell silent after hearing this.
She glanced at Shen Lingjun distractedly, and closed her eyes after a while, but asked Shen Lingjun another question: "Brother Lingjun, do you think my personality has changed a lot from when I was a child?"
Shen Lingjun pondered for a moment: "There are indeed quite a few changes."
He still remembered that when she was a child, Qing Lian's character was quiet and withdrawn, she didn't like to talk much or go out for a walk, sometimes she would sneak out of the palace to look for him, and accompany him to watch him draw and practice calligraphy, just watching him for a day, But never too boring.
I don't know if it's because she came out more often, and her personality gradually became cheerful and lively. Although she would be quiet occasionally, she still liked to drag him around the streets and alleys of Wang Zhang more often.
Qing Lian lowered her eyelids, and asked another irrelevant question: "The other day I saw a necklace bag hanging around your waist, and you said it was given to you by a girl. Do you like that girl?"
Shen Lingjun paused for a moment: "I like it."
Qinglian's expression became very complicated, as if she was upset, but relieved.
Shen Lingjun added indifferently: "Although that child is only five or six years old, she has a pair of skillful hands for weaving nets. That day her parents took her to flee to the city, and I settled their family of three in the city, and the child took the The mandarin duck bag was given to me."
Qing Lian suddenly raised her head: "You mean, the person who gave you this necklace bag was a child, but why did you..."
Shen Lingjun looked at her and smiled without saying a word.
Qing Lian opened her mouth, as if she understood something in an instant, but quickly lowered her head: "Don't you want to know why Mo Yun and I stole the squid? We are to save my sister. mother's sister."
"Your sister?" Shen Lingjun's expression was blank for a moment, but he suddenly remembered what Ling Xiao had said before. He said that the woman with the golden mask on the float looked exactly like Qinglian.
"What's your sister's name?"
Qinglian said bitterly: "She doesn't have a name. She hasn't had a name since she was born. But she likes the worry-free bird in the sky very much, so I call her worry-free."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Lingjun's expression froze suddenly.
He clearly remembered that when the young Qinglian was not familiar with him, he always liked to climb to the high branches and stare blankly at the worry-free birds circling in the distance.
The worry-free bird is a lonely bird, but it is also the most free bird.They don't have gorgeous feathers, only gray feathers, but they are the most tenacious birds in the desert.
They are not afraid of wind and sand, heavy rain, or scorching sun, and can survive even in the harshest environment.
But the worry-free birds have the freest souls. Once they are captured by humans, they will resolutely starve to death.
"What are you looking at?" Shen Lingjun stood under the tree and asked the girl on the tree.
The girl on the tree lowered her head and whispered to him, "Freedom."
......
A phantom mirror faithfully projected everything that happened in the king's tent in front of several people.
"If Qinglian has a twin sister, it should be the girl we saw before." In Lanyue Pavilion, Ling Xiao frowned and looked at the phantom mirror in front of her.
He knew that if they were present, Qing Lian might not be able to tell the truth.Only when facing Shen Lingjun, did she still have some sincerity in her mouth.
"She and Wuyou are the most yin demon fetus." Tan Yuan who had been silent all this time said suddenly, "When such twins come into the world, one son will die and the other will survive. Now they both survive, but they won't live long gone."
As soon as this remark came out, Ling Xiao looked at Qing Lian in the illusion mirror in surprise: "If I remember correctly, only the blood of heaven and man mixed with the demon race can have the chance to give birth to this yin demon fetus? Qing Lian she……"
Tan Yuan nodded indifferently, confirming Ling Xiao's guess.
Seeing Ling Xiao and the others sitting on the honored seats, she looked a little surprised, but she seemed to be expecting it. She should have guessed that Ling Xiao and the others would find Yiluo Kingdom, but she didn't expect it to be so quick.
Seeing that Qinglian came back in time, the eldest prince and the second prince were visibly relieved.
