Chapter 135 She’s pretty, why isn’t she favored?

Leng Lanzhi suppressed the panic in his heart and pretended to be calm: "It has been snowing heavily these past few days, and a few red plum trees have bloomed in the mansion. I thought that the white plum blossoms outside the city should be blooming soon, so I wanted to come out and have a look." He immediately asked.

: "Where's Fifth Brother? Why are you outside the city so early in the morning?"

The King of Yue smiled with his eyebrows slightly curved: "Recently, my brother has done great work in settling down the people and maintaining order in the city. My father has praised my brother generously. I also want to relieve my father's worries, so I came out to see where else I can help."

Leng Lanzhi nodded: "In that case, fifth brother, you go about your business first, I won't disturb you anymore."

She was about to put down the curtain when the voice of the King of Yue came through: "I'm done with my work. I happen to have nothing to do, and I haven't seen plum blossoms for a long time. Let's go together."

Leng Lanzhi narrowed his eyes slightly.

By now, she was very sure that the King of Yue had deliberately stopped her, and there was no point in acting anymore: "I suddenly felt a little tired, so I stopped looking at the plum blossoms. I'd rather wait until all the red plum blossoms in the mansion bloom before looking at them again."

Let’s go back home.”

Hearing this, the coachman said hello to the King of Yue, then turned the carriage around and returned to the city.

Liusha was extremely anxious: "What should we do, princess? If we can't get out and the marriage is really finalized, don't you really want to marry an old man?"

Although Emperor Anyang was an emperor, he was too old! And he had so many concubines!

Leng Lanzhi pinched his eyebrows and said, "The soldiers are coming to cover up the water and the earth. It's useless to worry now."

The carriage returned to the princess mansion again.

Leng Lanzhi asked people to chase the group of palace guards who left early, but she entered the palace directly.

Not many people knew about Emperor Anyang's desire to marry. After all, Emperor Anyang's foundation was currently unstable. If the marriage was revealed in a big way, those who were dissatisfied with his ascendancy would definitely undermine it.

Before the envoys arrived, the father and mother would definitely not make a big deal about it. So, how did the King of Yue know about it?

When the queen learned that Leng Lanzhi had not left, she was in a daze: "How could this happen?! King Yue! This wolfish and ambitious thing! He usually pretends to be harmless to humans and animals, but he unexpectedly stabbed me at the critical moment!"

"Mother, it's okay." Leng Lanzhi could only comfort the queen: "Things have not reached this point. Besides, if marriage is really necessary, this is my fate. No matter what, I am the eldest princess of Sheng Kingdom.

, even if some people are ready to act, they still have to worry about this.

As long as I'm careful, nothing will happen."

The queen moved her lips and wanted to say something, but in the end she could only shut her mouth dejectedly.

What's the use of talking about it now?

Leng Lanzhi knew why his mother was so disgusted with the marriage.

Not just because Emperor Anyang was older than her father, nor just because she could only be a concubine after passing away.

A few years ago, Oara and Sheng Guo signed a peace covenant, and alliances have always been accompanied by marriage.

The Sheng Kingdom sent a princess—her third sister.

The third sister was the child of a concubine in the palace, but that concubine had a bad life and had difficulty in giving birth to the child. Later, the child was barely born, but she passed away.

The queen felt pity for the third sister who lost her mother right after she was born, so she took the third sister over and raised her personally.

Although they are not biological children, they are still better than biological children.

Leng Lanzhi and the second princess were already married at the time of the Wala marriage. Among the princesses waiting to be married in the palace, the third sister was the most suitable.

Although the mother was reluctant to leave, she had no right to refuse for the sake of the country and the people, so she could only watch her third sister leave with tears.

I thought that the identity of Princess Sheng Guo could ensure that the third sister could live well in Oara. Unexpectedly, within two years, the news of the death of the third sister came back.

Since then, the name of the third sister has always been a taboo in the mother's heart.

Marriage has become the thing that my mother hates the most.

Seven days later, the envoys arrived in Beijing.

Because the other party brought two princesses, Sheng Kingdom also sent Leng Lanzhi.

In addition to her, there are also the prince, the king of Yue, and Gu Zhan.

The presence of the prince and the king of Yue was to show that the Sheng Kingdom attached great importance to the signing of the peace treaty.

As for Gu Zhan...

Leng Lanzhi glanced at him with some confusion, but she actually didn't understand what he was here for.

It stands to reason that on today's occasion, there would be nothing wrong without him.

Leng Lanzhi thought that his glance was very obscure, and he would look away after one glance.

Unexpectedly, the man suddenly looked over.

When Leng Lan was caught peeping at someone, she felt embarrassed in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She nodded slightly as a greeting, then looked away pretending that nothing happened.

The corners of Gu Zhan's lips curled up slightly.

The sky is rarely clear today, and the sun shines on the white snow in the distance, giving the entire earth a warm holy light.

The envoy group slowly arrived at the city gate.

A middle-aged man in rich clothes got off his horse, and a servant opened the curtain of the carriage, revealing the true faces of the two princesses of the banquet country.

These three are the representatives of the banquet country——

The third prince of Yan State is also the Fire King, Gao Ying.

As well as the seventh princess Gao Diewu and the eighth princess Gao Qianyue.

These two are young girls who have just grown hair. They are visiting with the envoys this time, and they have the intention of staying directly after the negotiation is concluded.

This is also a sign of Emperor Anyang's weakness - I will give you two princesses, but you only need one.

The two princesses got off the carriage.

The Fire Lord introduced the identities of the two princesses, and the prince also pushed Leng Lanzhi in front of them.

For a moment, all the eyes of the envoys from the banquet country were focused on Leng Lanzhi.

The eighth princess Gao Qianyue suddenly said: "I heard that Princess Jialuo had been married once and divorced. I thought that Princess Jialuo was some kind of ugly weirdo that didn't deserve her husband's favor. But when we met today, I discovered that Princess Jialuo is a

beauty.

I can’t understand what Princess Jialuo’s husband thinks, that he would leave the good princess alone to pamper a lowly concubine?”
