last night suddenly dreamed of mountains and rivers

The yellow flame on the candle flickered for a while, Lan Chongyan's breathing was short for a moment, and soon the short breathing became steady.

Lan Chongyan put the teacup down so hard that it almost fell, and there was a loud thump on the table, and some tea splashed on the table.

He laughed coldly.The two seemed to be able to sneer as their opening remarks before speaking. "Sneering" is a great way to set the tone for a conversation.At least it can be seen that none of them are happy in this conversation.

"When you meet me, you feel very painful, don't you? What about me? Why don't I suffer?" Lan Chongyan's face was half hidden in the darkness, infinitely pale.The other half of the face was illuminated by the candlelight like a prison ghost.He seemed to be questioning Lan Jiansu: "Back then, my mother killed your mother, and you said she deserved to die, so when I asked you for help, you didn't save her. But what about King Zhenxian? He also killed your mother, and killed her. Your whole clan, why do you have to save him?"

Lan Chongyan knew Lan Jiansu's life experience a long time ago.At the beginning, the two of them fled, and on the night when they were closest, Lan Chongyan asked him, even if the truth was hard to accept, did he still want to know it?

Lan Chongyan knew all of this.Only at that time, he chose not to speak.Lan Jiansu thought, maybe it was because he was in need of his own help at that time, so they still maintained the false relationship of "blood brothers".

Facing Lan Chongyan's questioning, Lan Jiansu couldn't answer.If he wanted to find a series of reasons and excuses, he could say that it was because King Zhen Xian did not directly harm his mother, nor did he directly harm his entire family.Because when he was a child, he was saved by King Zhen Xian's kindness, and King Zhen Xian indirectly saved him.Because King Zhenxian accepted him as the king's concubine, he was able to be safe for a while.Because King Zhen Xian counted him as half of his adoptive father, even if he had not been raised for long.

However, these reasons and fundamental interests all belong to him, and it seems that he is extremely selfish when he lists them one by one.

It's just that no matter what the reason is, he can stop being friendly to King Zhenxian, but he can't let King Zhenxian die.

He didn't have strong emotions for the ones who had been his enemies since he was conscious.With a scale, he couldn't lean towards Lan Chongyan.

But if he was in the same situation as King Zhenxian is now, not because he was punished by law, but was taken as a hostage, he would not just sit idly by.

However, Lan Chongyan must not believe what he said.After all, it is already dead.

Lan Chongyan watched him remain silent for a long time, his eyes darkened, and asked: "Is it because he is Su Yinyou's father, and you are afraid of Su Yinyou's injury?"

Lan Jiansu was noncommittal.

Lan Chongyan's laughter became colder, and the unknown but bright lights were like the light of judgment.When he "judged" Lan Jiansu, the expression on his face was not so much ridicule as bitterness.It was a very bitter "sneer": "Lan Jiansu, it turns out that you are not that great. You wanted to save King Zhenxian because of Su Yin's worries. Didn't you kill your mother and your whole family?" Accomplice? You are so unfair. My friendship with you for more than ten years is not as good as Su Yinyou and you for these few years."

Lan Jiansu closed his eyes and let out a heavy breath.After opening his eyes, he said, "If you feel resentment because I didn't help you, then I'm sorry for you."

Lan Chongyan didn't want to hear these words, so he stood up, turned his back to Lan Jiansu, and raised his head.Red eyes cannot be seen in the dark.

He clenched his fists so tightly that every joint was pale and trembling slightly.His expression became cold again, and he turned his face sideways: "I don't want to mention the past. In short, you stay here peacefully, and I will keep them safe." His tone turned sharp here, "But If you try to escape, I will start with their fingers and chop off their limbs piece by piece."

He doesn't seem to be scaremongering, and the current Lan Chongyan is not someone who can exaggerate and intimidate people.There is really no need for that.

Startled for a moment, Lan Jiansu heard Lan Chongyan stepping away.

The moment the door was slammed, Lan Jiansu finally understood the situation she was in.

Like the "bandit" among the kings and bandits since ancient times, he, who is regarded by the world as a bandit who failed to "seize the heir apparent", will be imprisoned here for life without getting Lan Chongyan a cup of poisoned wine King's revenge and torture.

Whether King Zhen Xian and Jing Xianxue are still alive, Lan Chongyan may never let him know in this lifetime.

Lan Jiansu thought about ways to escape from this place all night, and fell asleep again until dawn.

This time, I didn't sleep very long.

Before dawn, Lan Jiansu was woken up by the noise outside.Stretching and walking out, he yawned lazily and asked "Who is it?"

There was a row of palace people standing outside the gate, and standing in the middle was a eunuch in blue clothes.

Lan Jiansu had seen so many eunuchs that he was a little blind and couldn't remember who this eunuch was.But obviously the eunuch knew about Lan Jiansu, so he asked Lan Jiansu to accept the order. Lan Jiansu didn't kneel, so he didn't ask much.

The eunuch opened up the imperial decree and read a bunch of awkward classical Chinese, but Lan Jiansu didn't understand a word.It wasn't until the end that I understood the sentence "I hereby take Tan Enfenger as the Minister of the Heavenly Proclamation, and confer the first-class Lord Linqin".

Lan Jiansu: "What?"

The eunuch bowed his waist respectfully: "Please invite Master Lan to enter the palace and be conferred by the emperor."

Lan Jiansu gave a strange "ah" and didn't understand the meaning of the eunuch's words, nor the meaning of the imperial decree.

The eunuch repeated: "Master Lan, please enter the palace and be conferred by the emperor."

Lan Jian Su Xin said, Lan Chongyan must be fucking offline.

He turned around and left, the little eunuch walked quickly in front of him, still bowing his head respectfully, blocking his way respectfully.

Lan Jiansu looked down at the eunuch.

The eunuch repeated like an emotionless machine: "Master Lan, please enter the palace and be conferred by the emperor."

Lan Jiansu didn't even want to say anything, and walked around the eunuch.

The eunuch flashed in front of Lan Jiansu again: "If Mr. Lan doesn't obey the order, the servants can only wait here until it is convenient for Mr. Lan." After speaking, he raised his eyes, stared at Lan Jiansu, and whispered Said, "The emperor said, if you are disobedient, my lord, the old man will have to resort to other methods."

Lan Jiansu glared at the eunuch. The eunuch lowered his eyelids, but his legs were still firmly fixed in front of Lan Jiansu.

Anxiety and disgust mixed together and rippled across Lan Jiansu's chest.

He hated being held like this the most in his life.

Without any respect, Lan Jiansu almost pulled the imperial decree from the eunuch's hand, and walked out of the gate.

The palace staff timed it accurately, after entering the palace, it coincided with the emperor's early court.

Lan Jiansu stood outside the hall with his hands crossed, watching the pure light of the sun outside the hall when the sun first rose.Compared with the cautious palace people beside him, his appearance is too "defiant".The emperor was talking in the hall, and everyone inside and outside the hall was very serious, for fear that if they were not serious, they would lose their heads.

A round of white-yellow fireball slowly rose out of the golden tiled roof, and the morning breeze blew through Lan Jiansu's hair.The continuous golden tiles and the wide gray brick square make the whole palace look both magnificent and desolate.

Lan Jiansu rushed to a little eunuch beside him and said, "Would you get tired of watching such a sunrise every day?"

The little eunuch was frightened to death, shrunk his shoulders and lowered his head tightly, not daring to say a word.

Lan Jiansu said "boring", and squinted to see the sun rising higher and higher, embedded in the vast sky.

Afterwards, Xuan Lan, the eunuch in the palace, gradually entered the palace.

Lan Jiansu lowered his arms and strode into the hall.

The civil and military men of the Man Dynasty stood on both sides, from the corner of their eyes, Lan Jiansu straightened his body, and walked past them one by one at a leisurely pace.Shen Ping's green eyes slanted and fell on Lan Jiansu, unable to move away for a long time.The official behind him tugged at Shen Pinglu's sleeve, and Shen Pinglu turned his head back.But not much, and looking sideways, the eyes are full of charm.

Lan Chongyan sat on the dragon chair, dressed in a golden nine-dragon robe, with a majestic posture.This is not a majesty he pretended to be, but a majesty that he did not know when.The officials under his nose are always tense.They seem to be terribly afraid of Lan Chongyan, not out of the fear of the courtiers who fear the king, but the instinctive fear of living beings towards stronger ones.

Lan Jiansu was very puzzled by their fear. They didn't have such fear when facing the late emperor.

Behind the dragon chair, there is a tall carved dragon and painted gold screen, surrounded by cloisonné enamel, and the fragrance from the big golden incense burner floats in, a refreshing and solemn fragrance.Hundreds of foreign candles illuminate the giant pillars of Jiangshan Rising Dragon brilliantly.Lan Chongyan called this piece of golden light package, the whole person is like the emperor who really fell from the sky.

This was the first time that Lan Jiansu saw Lan Chongyan clearly after he ascended the throne.

Back then at the foot of Bliss Peak, the sky was too dark, he couldn't see Xilan Chongyan.There was only one weak candle last night, and he couldn't see it clearly.Now Lan Chongyan was sitting there wearing a dragon robe, he could clearly see Lan Chongyan's expression, Lan Chongyan's facial features.

Lan Jiansu couldn't tell what it was like.

In previous years, when the first empress dowager was alive, she had privately told Lan Chongyan, who was still the crown prince at that time, that he was immature, wearing the emperor's dragon robe, even sitting on the dragon chair would be timid.If he doesn't think that the seat of "Emperor" was given to him by falling from the sky, he must be able to hold on to it and sit still.

It's really a pity that the former Empress Dowager didn't have the chance to see Lan Chongyan looking down on all sentient beings on the dragon chair today.

The three eunuchs under the rank were holding the official uniform, official hat, and seal that would be bestowed on Lan Jiansu.

The chief eunuch standing beside Lan Chongyan stood up and read out the imperial decree to award Lan Jiansu again.

Three eunuchs from the lower ranks came up to meet him, and put on official uniforms and hats for Lan Jiansu.

That heavy hat made Gaidelan's head sink gradually, and he really admired all civil and military senses for being able to wear this big hat for a lifetime.

Two eunuchs were busy on Lan Jiansu's body, dressing him in the official uniform, and the No. 3 eunuch presented the seal.

Lan Jiansu hesitated for a while, then took the seal letter.

The corners of Lan Chongyan's lips curved lightly, and said: "Master Tianxuan Shangqing, from now on, you must fulfill your duties and do your best to be loyal to the imperial court, Dafeng, and me."

Lan Jiansu couldn't resist.Wanting to find out the whereabouts of Jing Xianxue and Zhen Xian Wang, he would be so confused and be manipulated like a puppet.

He stared at the jade-colored soft letter in his hand, but his eyes ached like being pricked by needles.The chest is slightly tight.

Lan Chongyan punished him with kindness.

Let him, a native of Lousang who has a blood feud with Da Feng, try his best to be loyal to Da Feng from now on.
