No, that's not right. She wasn't Anya. It was just that when she lifted her eyes, her eyebrows looked extremely similar to Anya's. Furthermore, the faint smile by her mouth was actually quite similar.
Xiao Lan was gradually lost in thought as he looked at Liu Yan.
Liu Yan, who was bending over without Xiao Lan's response, didn't dare to get up. She stood on the spot awkwardly for a moment.
The surrounding maidservants couldn't help but look at each other. What was going on with the wangfei? I just stared at the five girls and didn't let her get up …
Could it be that he was angry because the five young girls looked good? Want to make things difficult for the five ladies?
The atmosphere was getting weirder and weirder.
The smile on the corner of Liu Yan's mouth finally couldn't maintain and slowly retreated. It was only when Liu Yan's smile completely disappeared did Xiao Lan finally regain his senses.
The surroundings had become completely silent.
Xiao Lan looked left and right, feeling dull pain in her heart. She was in a trance, how could there be Anya here?
Under everyone's gaze, Xiao Lan silently stood up and left the pavilion without even turning his head back.
Everyone had a weird expression on their faces. They looked at Fifth Miss Liu Yan from the corner of their eyes.
Princess Hua-Yang's actions had thoroughly neglected the five ladies. In the end, she didn't even let the five ladies get up when she left.
This...
Such an embarrassment.
A cold wind blew from the jade pavilion, and the humid atmosphere of the lake that was mixed in the wind became even colder, causing everyone to scatter.
Ke Er, who was a personal servant of the Fifth Miss, couldn't take it anymore and she quickly ran over to Liu Yan's side to help her up.
"Miss, why must you suffer? You know that this wangfei isn't to be trifled with, why did you go up on your own accord?!"
Liu Yan looked indifferently at Ke Er, her calm voice carrying a trace of helplessness and sadness.
"This wangfei isn't easy to mess with, then is wangye easy to deal with?"
"This …"
Liu Yan's words instantly caused Ke Er to be speechless.
That's right, it'd be even harder to provoke the prince if it wasn't for the wangfei, but she didn't understand …
"Miss, why did Your Highness send a letter asking you to stay by the wangfei's side and accompany her all the time?"
This... She had thought about this question many times, but she still couldn't understand it.
Today, in the morning, the shadow guard suddenly came to her pavilion and handed her a letter saying that it was the prince's wish. Opening the letter only contained a few digits.
He would stay by her side from now on, at all times.
Just ten words later, there was nothing left.
She almost went through the letter but was unable to find anything else.
In the end, even though she didn't understand, she still wanted to do as she said, but she didn't expect that one of her greetings, the "Regent Princess", wouldn't agree.
Then what happened next …
Ke Er could see that her master was in a difficult situation, so she went forward to support Liu Yan with heartache.
Her master was the most modest one in her family. He had never shown his face and had only quietly stayed in his pavilion. He didn't know what the prince was thinking by asking her to accompany his wife, who could frighten a person to death.
Sigh …
Ke Er sighed deeply. "Miss, what do you want to do next?"
Liu Yan glanced at the surface of the lake and said, "Let's go back first. We'll come back tomorrow."
Come back tomorrow?
Although Ke Er was unwilling in her heart, she couldn't say much. They would indeed come again tomorrow.
As for Xiao Lan, who had returned to the Orchid Garden, she was in a trance for half a day and did not feel sleepy at night at all.
It was rare for Xiao Lan to act like this as she followed closely behind.
"Princess, what happened to you?"
Xiao Lan walked to the window without saying a word.
The moonlight was like a silver plate, hazy and beautiful.
"Anya …" Xiao Lan muttered.
"Esteemed wangfei, what did you say?" Ning Xiang didn't hear it clearly at all as she stepped forward to ask.
Xiao Lan turned around to look at Ning Xiang, who had a face full of worry for her. The corners of her mouth curled up, but her smile didn't reach her eyes.
"It's nothing. Go get a pen and ink."
Pen and ink?
Why do you need a pen and ink?
Although Ning Xiang was puzzled, she obediently rushed over to get it.
Meng Yingying, who was in the outer room, saw Ning Xuemo coming over to get the brush and ink. She couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing using these things so late in the night?"
Ning Xiang blinked, "Even if wangfei wants to use it, I don't know."
"Ulan Yi" was going to be used.
What was this woman up to this evening?
"Give it to me."
Meng Ying took the thing in Ning Xiang's hand, "I'll go give it to you."
"…"
Ning Xiang couldn't help but be surprised by Meng Yingying's ruthless actions. She realized that Meng Ying seemed to have a very strong opinion of the Royal Concubine lately.
Meng Ying quickly entered the room. She put the brush and ink down in front of Xiao Lan in a very disrespectful manner.
"Princess, what do you want?"
Xiao Lan raised his eyes and looked at Meng Ying with an indifferent expression. She didn't say anything and didn't pursue the matter. Instead, she didn't pursue the matter, making Meng Ying more and more arrogant.
Meng Yingying initially had a cold and domineering expression, but as Xiao Lan's gaze continued to grow, she couldn't help but feel guilty. In the end, her straight back bent down.
Xiao Lan smiled indifferently when she saw this. She thought she had some backbone, and she couldn't persist like this.
Xiao Lan coldly withdrew his gaze and picked up the brush and ink.
Originally, she wanted to draw something, but now she was completely distracted by Meng Ying's action.
Xiao Lan threw the brush and ink he had just picked up back onto the table. He tapped the center of his brows lightly with his finger, and a trace of irritation flashed across his face.
"Someone, come."
After a moment, Xiao Lan called out in a clear voice.
Ning Xiang quickly ran in. "Princess, is there something you need?"
Xiao Lan looked at Ning Xiang. "Call the guards in."
Guard?
"Oh, oh, okay. This servant will go call him now."
The guard quickly walked in and knelt down to pay his respects. "This servant greets wangfei."
Inside the room, Ning Xiang and Meng Ying looked at Xiao Lan with a puzzled expression. They didn't know why she suddenly called for guards.
At this moment, Xiao Lan's finger stopped between her eyebrows as she looked at Meng Ying.
"Go, tie her up and hang her under a tree in the yard."
Ah?!
Both Ning Xiang and Meng Ying were shocked!
The guard was also stunned, but from the looks of it, Xiao Lan wasn't joking.
After a while, the two guards who had just entered the room exchanged glances with each other, then resolutely stood up and walked over to Meng Yingying.
"Sorry, Lady Meng Ying."
In the blink of an eye, the two guards grabbed Meng Ying's wrists and turned around.
"Let go!"
Meng Ying exclaimed, "Do you know who I am?! "I am Meng Ying. I have been serving you since I was young. I grew up with you. Are you crazy? How dare you tie me up?"
Hearing this, Xiao Lan smiled faintly.
Oh ~
No wonder she dared to be so arrogant. She was a maid who grew up together with Xuanyuan Feng.
A maid who shared a room, or a maid who warmed a bed?
Meng Ying quickly saw the sneer on Xiao Lan's face and the anger she had been hiding in her heart for days suddenly exploded.
"You slut, what right do you have to laugh at me? The person who should be the most laughed at is you. You have no sense of shame. Not only are you trying to seduce the emperor, you're even seducing your own older brother. You're truly disgusting!"
When Meng Ying's words came out, everyone in the room was so shocked that their souls almost left their bodies.
Was this girl Meng Ying crazy?!
