Queen Flower

When Jiang Lan went to work the next day, Liu Jun took the time to talk to her, and Jiang Lan probably knew about the Sima Dynasty.

She has long known that Sima Jin and Sima Lian are compatriots, but there is also a compatriot, Sima Rong, who is about eighteen and one flowers, and Yun Ying is not married. Since the three share the same father and mother, their relationship is relatively good, and Sima Rong is a girl and has no conflict of interest with Sima Jin. In the same way, Empress Wang and Concubine Lian Gui competed to win over Sima Rong, but since the Empress had been in the palace for a long time, Sima Rong naturally became closer to her.

Jiang Lan sighed that every sister who lives arbitrarily has a good brother behind her, why doesn't she have one? However, in the feudal dynasty, when the stakes are really at stake, brothers and sisters are not safe. Sometimes the person who really sacrifices the interests of their relatives is the person who is closest to you. Jiang Lan is relieved after thinking about it.

The two talked and talked about yesterday's banquet. Jiang Lan left early, but Liu Jun persisted to the end.

"General Yan really doesn't like banquets as in the legends," Liu Jun sighed. "He disappeared when you left. Everyone is used to it. It's not surprising. It's true."

Jiang Lan didn't reply, she already knew this, but now I can confirm that he gave her a ride yesterday. She thought about it and asked, "General Yan seems to have something to do with the princess?" It was actually embarrassing to ask this kind of thing, so Jiang Lan regretted it when she said it. This is not something a man should pay attention to.

Liu Jun glanced at her and smiled, "Could it be that brother Jiang Xian wants Princess Shang?"

"No, no, I'm just curious." Jiang Lan quickly shook her head, she couldn't talk nonsense about this, it was killing her.

Liu Jun nodded. "It's not easy to be a concubine of this dynasty. You and I have read books for so many years, and naturally you have to show your skills. If you marry a princess, it looks like you are rich and noble, but in fact, your career has come to an end."

Jiang Lan immediately agreed, not to mention that she was a Xibei product with incomplete parts, so she couldn't get a wife, but she could really get a wife. Nor would she want a princess. If you find a princess to be your wife, wouldn't it mean that you will have to be a coward for the rest of your life and become a strict wife. And the future is gone. According to the rules of this country, you can only be a wealthy idler without real power all your life. If this is the case, reading so many books is useless, and any ideals and aspirations have become the moon in the mirror. Therefore, no one who really wants to do a career is willing to marry a princess. The emperor's daughter is also worried about marriage.

"So, General Yan didn't want to marry the eldest princess for this reason?" Jiang Lan's curiosity was hanged.

Liu Jun shook his head, "I heard that's not the case. The eldest princess is not too young, and she has never been married, so it is estimated that she has been interested in General Yan for many years, but I have never heard of the emperor having this idea. If the emperor is willing , come to give marriage, not to solve the problem long ago. If it can be delayed until today, it can be seen that the emperor is not willing. "

"Isn't I quite willing to see the emperor yesterday? I'm still pulling the red line." Jiang Lan was very puzzled.

Liu Jun hesitated for a while, "It's a moment and a moment, the holy meaning is unpredictable."

Jiang Lan thought that the royal marriage was also a combination of interests. It seems that the queen is in favor, but the concubine is against it. The emperor's attitude was subtle, but it seemed that Yan Zhan didn't mean that. She said: "I see General Yan as if he doesn't want to."

"That's natural, who would want to, isn't marrying the princess to hand over military power?" Liu Jun thought thoughtfully, "I always thought that the rumor about General Yan was very fake, how could he fall in love with such a person? What a bewitching and beautiful person, I think it is an excellent excuse to openly reject the kindness of the eldest princess."

It makes sense. Jiang Lan nodded. She also felt that the matter was very inconsistent. According to the news she heard from the people, Yan Zhan was not such a person. How could a hero who stands upright in the sky do such a thing? Is there really no purpose? ?

But how do you explain what happened last night? It seems that there really is such a beautiful woman. Jiang Lan didn't dare to tell Liu Jun what happened yesterday. The so-called guilty conscience of being a thief, even if she thought she was not the thief in this incident, she still had a ghost in her heart.

After a day's work, Liu Jun invited her to a banquet with her. This is a normal exchange between colleagues. Jiang Lan declined his kindness on the grounds of last night's hangover. Although she was not a real drinker, Actually it's not much better. Liu Jun joked that her alcohol intake was really shallow, and she should practice more at home for the sake of her career. He was the first time he saw a man with such an insufficiency of alcohol.

In fact, after the banquet yesterday, Jiang Lan got the reputation of "sprinkling flowers and pouring a cup", but this is the result that Jiang Lan is happy to see. Although he will be ridiculed by everyone, it is estimated that no one will force him to drink in the future. Well, this really saves a lot of trouble.

Jiang Lan completed the work at hand and walked slowly to the courtyard gate. In fact, if she really lived like this, she would be considered a civil servant who eats imperial rations. She doesn't need to go to court if she doesn't have enough official positions. For her, even normal old age and death are an extravagant hope.

When she walked out of the courtyard, she saw a person standing by the wall, dressed as a military general, with a black jade crown on his head, a black hairpin passing across it, his thick black hair draped over his shoulders, not the black heavy armor on the battlefield, but It is silver light armor, which only protects the chest and lower/body vitals, revealing black tight-fitting bunts. He wears high boots and has long legs. Standing there, he is valiant and mighty.

Passers-by glanced at him secretly, and when they saw the indifferent eyes, they immediately turned their heads and left quickly. He was holding the horse in his hand, but his face was facing the palace gate, as if he was waiting for someone to appear. When Jiang Lan saw him, he clearly saw the warm light in his eyes flashing away.

Is he waiting for her? Jiang Lan sighed, this is exactly the image of a great general in her heart, a stalwart man, if it wasn't for his eyes staring at her, she would actually want to applaud twice. But why did you find her again, it's not over yet? She thought their misunderstanding had been resolved.

It is impossible to turn a blind eye and leave by yourself. Yan Zhan is the general of Zhennan, and he was named a general during the war with the Nanman. Even if he is still reverted to the post of general, except for the Taiwei, this entire dynasty is no better than him. High-level generals. Even at the first level of the official university, it would crush people to death, not to mention that this is an unknown number of levels, and it can be compared to Mount Tai when it is pressed on Jiang Lan's head.

"General Yan." Jiang Lan bowed his hands in a salute, both to say hello and to say goodbye, and his footsteps began to swerve to the side.

Yan Zhan nodded, leading the horse and walking side by side with her.

Jiang Lan had to turn his head to speak. It was impossible to pretend to be stupid and slip away. It is better to open the skylight and say something bright, "I don't know what is the matter with General Yan looking for the next official?"

"No big deal, let's go." Yan Zhan glanced down at her, "I wonder if Lord Jiang has any sisters?"

Jiang Lan's heart was relieved, and it seemed that he had given up on himself, and began to take the route of relatives, "No, Xiaguan is the only son."

Yan Zhan did not speak, and was silent for a while, except for the sound of hooves and footsteps.

"Have Master Jiang ever been to Southern Border?" Yan Zhan asked suddenly.

Jiang Lan paused and shook his head, "No, I haven't been there. General Yan guards the southern border all year round, protects the family and the country, and is admired by the lower officials."

"Actually, I haven't been in the southern border all the time," Yan Zhan lowered his head slightly and looked around casually. "For a while, I was in the Royal Mountain outside Yuncheng."

In the Royal Mountains, Jiang Lan's mind moved slightly. Could it be that time? Did he really see her? impossible. Jiang Lan immediately interrupted her suspicions. She had already analyzed it yesterday. It was absolutely impossible for anyone to see her. If he had already taken a fancy to her at that time, how could she have escaped with his martial arts? Besides, isn't there a spring breeze in the rumors? Where could be yourself.

Jiang Lan shook his head calmly, "I haven't been there, the lower official has been preparing for the test, how could he have time to run around?"

Yan Zhan clenched the reins in his hand, "Really?" His intuition told him that he was lying. When he mentioned the Royal Mountains just now, he was acutely aware of a slight fluctuation in his mind, but it was only for a moment. There was a pause, but he caught it. He looked casual just now, but he never left his face. He saw doubts and thinking in his eyes. So many years of military life have cultivated his sensitive nerves. If he really hasn't been there, why should he think? What is there to think about and wonder about?

So, is he really her? Yan Zhan suppressed the sudden excitement in his heart and wished to question her immediately. He took a deep breath and calmed down. Now the situation is very complicated. She is him, so what is going on?

Jiang Lan turned his head and saw Yan Zhan staring at her for a split second, bluffing, what kind of eyes are these, like a black hole trying to swallow her up, his whole body exudes a strong breath, making him She was nervous and wanted to retreat.

Yan Zhan turned his face and calmed his mind, take your time, things will always come to light. Compared to looking around aimlessly, now that he has eyes and eyes, even he himself can't figure out why he is so obsessed with it, is she really a fairy, he can't be under her spell. He lost his fame here all his life, and was called the laughing stock of the Chinese people. If there is a curse, is there a chance to lift it after approaching her?

"Do you think there are monsters and ghosts in this world?" Yan Zhan asked.

Jiang Lan pursed his lips and smiled and said, "No, how is it possible?" Could it be that this general suddenly had the idea of ​​a ghost because he killed so many people on the battlefield? This she can be sure that in this world, apart from Xiaoxi, there is no one who is beyond the power of nature.

"Are you sure?" Yan Zhan looked at her with deep eyes, as if covering up countless thoughts.

"Xiaguan can be sure that there are absolutely no ghosts and monsters, so the general need not worry." Jiang Lan answered him decisively. Once he succeeds, his bones will die. This is something that can't be helped. Does he regret it now? Are you afraid of ghosts' revenge? How so weak.

"Generals don't have to worry about any resentment. Even if they died, they would have been reincarnated long ago, and there is no time to wander in the world." Jiang Lan enlightened him patiently. The ancients always have ghosts in their hearts. Otherwise, why is there a saying of ancestral worship? In addition to commemorating it, it is also imagining the blessing of the ancestors.
