Chapter 40 Could it be that the lingering feelings are lingering?



Leng Lanzhi walked leisurely and slowly towards Jinxiu Garden.

The summer evening breeze carries a faint fragrance, which is the large roses blooming in the Pingnan Marquis Mansion.

In the past, she only thought the scent was kitschy, but today, probably because she was in a good mood, she felt that such a strong smell had a different flavor.

Whether people like it or not, it is like the sky tearing apart stratus clouds, making it impossible for people to ignore it.

Suddenly, Xiaorou's body trembled and she reminded in a low voice: "Princess, this is Master Gu."

Leng Lanzhi raised her eyes and saw Gu Zhan walking slowly from another road. She couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Although the Sheng Kingdom did not treat men and women as fierce tigers like previous dynasties, it was by no means lenient. Therefore, at a large banquet like this, not only the seats for men and women had to be separated, but also the way in and out of the venue was not the same.

.

But the path Gu Zhan took was not an exclusive passage for male guests.

Leng Lanzhi stopped. The man stood a few meters away and saluted respectfully: "I have met the princess."

Leng Lanzhi thought that she was not very familiar with him. She asked Xiaorou to go to Jinxing Division to ask for someone because he owed her a favor. She happened to need Jinxing Division's intelligence network and Jinxing Guard's martial arts, so she used it.

of this kindness.

She also didn't think that Gu Zhan would be a lowly person for the sake of his status. There were rumors that he even dared to teach the prince a lesson. This was not a rumor. She had seen with her own eyes that he did not give the prince's brother a good look and contradicted him in public.

I have also seen him being rude to a favored imperial concubine.

Everyone in the court commented privately that this man was a mad dog who would not treat anyone except the emperor as his master.

Unexpectedly, when I saw him twice in a row, he was very well-behaved.

The low-brow look reminded her of the wolf king she had seen when she was a child. He was aloof and strong, but when facing his master, he would lower his noble head and reveal his longing eyes...

eager?

Leng Lanzhi felt that he was probably crazy to have such hallucinations.

She gathered her thoughts and said calmly: "Get flat."

Gu Zhan stood up after hearing this and walked towards her silently.

Leng Lan was puzzled.

Gu Zhan was a little helpless: "Princess, the way out of the mansion is this way."

Only then did Leng Lanzhi remember that they indeed needed to go together for a while.

She said nothing more and walked in front with her own people. Gu Zhan was alone and followed the group slowly.

Leng Lanzhi was thinking about his own things and didn't notice that there was a gaze always following him.

Finally reaching the fork in the road, Leng Lanzhi stopped and waited for Gu Zhan for a while, then said calmly: "Gu Diansi, go slowly."

But the man was not in a hurry to leave and asked: "Princess, are Ah Qing and the others still using it smoothly?"

Ah Qing is one of the two male Jinxing Division men. He has always been responsible for secretly guarding and going out to find out the news. Leng Lanzhi smiled slightly: "The people from Jinxing Division are naturally easy to use."

She said nothing and turned to leave.

A pair of deep eyes followed her departing back closely, and it wasn't until the last piece of clothes disappeared from sight that the man looked back.

Thinking of what happened today, a coldness flashed in his eyes.

Mixed with a hint of confusion: "Princess, what are your... plans?"

He had already handed over Yu Wan'er's identity information, Shen Lin'an's identity and the situation of the family of three to the princess through Axiang's hands. With such a good opportunity today, why didn't the princess reveal their true identities?

Once it was revealed that the consort had an illegitimate child in his wife's house, Shen Yizhi would have a hundred heads that wouldn't be enough to chop him off.

Could it be that... the princess has unresolved feelings for Shen Yi?

Thinking of this possibility, Gu Zhanruo's dark eyes, as dark as the middle of the night, started to accumulate a storm.

Leng Lanzhi didn't know what the person who had been left behind was thinking. At that time, she was looking at the two children in front of her with a smile.

He Qianqian had a sweet look on her face: "Princess, A-Yue said that she would come to thank you in person."

After Leng Lanzhi rescued He Yanyue that day, she never saw him again.

Even though He Yanyue was only five years old, he was very sensible and always wanted to personally thank the princess who saved him.

The slender and well-behaved child cupped his fists and saluted, and said respectfully: "Thank you, Princess, for saving my life."

Leng Lanzhi covered her lips and smiled: "What you should thank is yourself. It was your agility and boldness that saved yourself."

As she spoke, she asked with interest: "Who taught you the method to deliberately hit pedestrians?"

According to the situation that day, He Yanyue deliberately dragged passers-by into the water, which was his only chance to survive.

It is best to damage the finances of passers-by so that it can attract attention.

Of course, it is not advisable to deliberately hit a moving carriage. If he had not been lucky, he would have been dead by now.

Of course, this method may not necessarily work. If the villains on that day would rather pay financial compensation than take the young man away to murder his life, then there is still a high probability that something will happen to the young man.

After all, there are quite a few self-righteous good people like Shen Yizhi in the world.

If the situation at that time had been Shen Yizhi's, he might have let him go graciously.

Even Leng Lanzhi was able to see through the scam not because of how smart she was, but because He Yanyue happened to have that Yingluo on her body.

So Leng Lanzhi was very curious, how did this young man come up with this method of escape?

Because of the nervous relationship, the little boy's slightly pale face had two wisps of red. He pinched the hem of his clothes next to his fingers and whispered: "Back... back to the princess... I don't know what's going on. , I thought about doing that at that time..."

Leng Lanzhi was even more surprised.

She thought someone had taught the young man something, but she didn't expect that this was actually an idea that the young man came up with in an emergency.

Smart, bold...

If you can still maintain full ambition and loyalty, you can cultivate it.

"Okay, don't be so nervous." Leng Lanzhi raised his hand to let the young man lie down, and said with a smile: "I hit it off with your sister. You are Qianqian's younger brother. You don't have to be so restrained when you see me in the future."

He Qianqian's eyes lit up.

The princess said that she felt like old friends at first sight.

Not far away, people from the He family came together, and they all looked surprised when they saw the two children talking to Princess Jialuo.

The old lady Qin was thoughtful: "Sanlang... not bad."

Huang's expression changed.

Although she was the official wife of Minister He, she could not give birth to a son, but only gave birth to two little girls.

Without a legitimate son, her position as a head wife would always be unstable, so during this period she had been looking for a suitable child in the He family, hoping to adopt him.

As for why she chooses a child from somewhere else when there is a suitable child in the house...

In fact, the death of He Qianqian's biological mother had something to do with her.

And when the aunt died, the two children had already remembered the incident, so it was inevitable that they would not hate her for it.

She didn't want to work hard for half her life and end up raising a white-eyed wolf.
