C101

Xiao Lan was still unable to recover from her contemplation even after Ning Xiang had brought in the clear water.

Ning Xiang brought the cup closer and closer to Xiao Lan. "Princess, water."

Xiao Lan only regained her senses after Xiao Ning Xiang's repeated reminders. She looked away indifferently and seriously, extending her hand to receive the cup of water that she had been holding up all this time.

The white porcelain cup of water was tightly clenched in Xiao Lan's hands. As she gazed at the clear and warm water inside, Xiao Lan couldn't help but think of the red lotus.

Although she had never been on good terms with Red Lotus and had only been an obedient master and servant, she still cared deeply about this servant. After all, she was the first servant girl to follow her.

Xiao Lan once again clenched the porcelain cup in his hand, and instructed Ning Xiang with a low voice that carried an extremely oppressive aura.

"Go and call for Rufeng. I have something to ask him."

Ning Xiang was startled. Although puzzled, she did not ask any further. She quickly left the room to call for Ru Feng.

At this moment, Ruofeng had just finished rearranging the position of the Prince's Residence's secret guard. When he heard that Ning Xiang wanted to see her, his entire body froze. Why would she want to see him?

Windy probed, "Ning Xiang, do you know why the wangfei called me here?"

Ning Xiang shook her head. "I don't know. The Royal Concubine was silent for a long time, but then she suddenly asked to see you. You should go to Protector Rufeng as soon as possible."

Suddenly wanting to see him...

Windy brow frowned.

Truth be told, he was unwilling to see "Wanda Yi", especially at this critical juncture.

However, "Wanda Yi" was still a royal concubine. Whether it was in name or reality, she was a true royal concubine of the Regent's Estate.

How could he not go when the wangfei summoned him?

Ru Feng took a deep breath and walked toward the orchid garden.

When Rufeng arrived at the Orchid Garden, Xiao Lan was still sitting calmly on the bed. After hearing Rufeng's footsteps, he calmly raised his head and gave Rufeng a glance.

Ru Feng respectfully stood and bowed in the inner room.

"Ru Feng greets the wangfei. May I know what matter the wangfei has summoned me here for?"

Xiao Lan's gaze swept over Rufeng's body with his dark and cold gaze, and directly asked with a low voice without any redundancy.

"I called you here to find out what happened to the Red Lotus. Did you kill it or send it away?"

Hearing this, Rufeng's body froze.

So, the reason why "Wei-Lan Yi" called him over was to ask about the Red Lotus.

Ru Feng slightly lowered his head and stayed silent for a long time. His eyes continuously rotated in the dark. He seemed to be carefully considering how to respond.

Xiao Lan's eyes focused when she saw this.

"You don't need to spend so much effort to make up your mind. Just say whether the red lotus is dead or alive."

He raised his head like the wind and looked at Xiao Lan. After a moment, his eyes darkened as he spat out these two words.

"Dead."

Xiao Lan's gaze sank, as he died …

Although she had already guessed it, hearing Rufeng say it so precisely made her heart beat uncontrollably.

"Did you do it?"

Ru Feng pursed his lips and shook his head after a moment. Even though it was the orders from his prince himself, he could still be considered to be familiar with Red Lotus.

"No, it was caused by the hidden guards below. However, your subordinate has prepared a good coffin for Red Lotus and buried her well."

Xiao Lan's heart became increasingly heavy. After a long time, she suddenly spoke.

"Your Prince really does do things cleanly, without leaving any hidden troubles."

Upon hearing this, Ru Feng's expression froze. What did this mean?

Hearing his tone, "You Lanyi" seemed to be praising the prince …

Praise the prince!

Ru Feng was completely at a loss. She initially thought that the Red Lotus, as the personal servant girl of "You Lan Yi", would be executed by the prince. When she heard this answer, she would be extremely furious and grief-stricken, but how could she know that she was so calm, even agreeing!

For a moment, even the breathing as slow as the wind had become inaudible, it was really Xiao Lan's cold and emotionless that shocked him.

There was suddenly no sound in the room at this moment. It was so quiet that it was as if there was no one there.

After a long time, Xiao Lan, who was sitting on the bed, waved at Windy. "You can leave now."

After she finished speaking, Xiao Lan indifferently took the white porcelain cup that she didn't drink a single drop from earlier and placed it beside the bed.

After giving Xiao Lan one last deep look, Ru Feng bowed once more before leaving the inner room, leaving the Orchid Garden.

Xiao Lan had been waiting outside the room for this entire time, so naturally, she could clearly hear the conversation between Xiao Lan and Ru Feng. Her eyes gradually turned red, and as she saw him leave, she stepped into the inner room.

Thinking that even though her princess consort was calm, she would definitely be extremely sad. Her footsteps quickened as she arrived at the edge of Xiao Lan's bed, wanting to gently comfort him.

However, when Ning Xiang came to the bedside, she instantly froze on the spot. She couldn't help but cover her mouth in shock.

What did she see!?

She saw the cup of water in the princess' hands freeze layer by layer!

It was true. The clear water in Princess Hua-Yang's glass had turned into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye!

This...

Ning Xiang couldn't help but take a step back. She remembered that day when Xiao Lan's entire body felt cold, as if there was no warmth. It seemed like that day wasn't an illusion. Her royal consort really was abnormal.

Xiao Lan silently looked at the ice block that had already solidified like a stone within the white porcelain cup. She knew that Ning Xiang was right beside her, and her breathing was erratic and erratic.

Not to mention her, even she, Xiao Lan, herself, was shocked that she actually had such a masterpiece.

What is this? She has the power to turn rocks into metal. Is this how she turned water into ice?

Xiao Lan pointed his finger at the crystalline ice crystal a few times.

It was really cold...

Xiao Lan raised her head and pretended to be calm as she looked at the extremely terrified Ning Xiang.

"I just changed to a different trick a moment ago. I'm not making a big fuss over nothing. Go out, get busy with whatever you need to do."

Xiao Lan originally thought that Ning Xiang would leave after she said that, but she didn't expect that she would open her eyes wider and wider.

"Princess, your eyes …"

Eyes, what happened to her eyes?

Xiao Lan looked towards the dressing table, but she didn't notice anything strange as she was too far away from the mirror.

When Xiao Lan saw this, she quickly ran to the dressing table, removed the copper mirror, and quickly passed it to him.

Xiao Lan held the copper mirror and looked at her own eyes. When she clearly saw her own eyes, Xiao Lan was as shocked and shocked as Xiao Ning Xiang.

What's going on!

Why did her eyes turn blood-red!

At this moment, Xiao Lan's eyes were extremely strange. His originally pitch-black eyeballs were now completely filled with blood-red light. Furthermore, there seemed to be a red light revolving within them.

What is this thing!

Xiao Lan's entire body became tense.

When Ning Xiang saw Xiao Lan's unconscious appearance, she became even more flustered for a moment.

"Esteemed wangfei, I'll go invite Doctor Zhao over. You must have contracted some strange illness!"

Xiao Lan quickly raised his head when he heard this. "Wait!"
