C54

The inner room instantly became silent as if there was no one there.

All of the servant girls widened their eyes as they covered their mouths and watched the figure of Xuanyuan Feng carrying Xiao Lan and walking out.

Only when Xuanyuan Yun had completely disappeared with Xiao Lan in his arms did a young maid ask Senior Servant Ji timidly.

"Momo, the prince carried away the wangfei just like that?"

Senior Servant Ji gripped the handkerchief in her hand and replied absentmindedly, "I think so …"

From the Warm Fragrance Pavilion to the Central Courtyard, then to the front hall, and then to the mansion's door, Xuanyuan Po walked with extreme calmness. His steps forward were like normal, without any differences, but his breathing was slower than usual.

Especially at the instant when he picked up Xiao Lan and hooked her around his neck, Xuanyuan Wentian's breathing clearly slowed down.

He could clearly feel the trust in his chest that the girl in his embrace had placed all of her power on him in that instant of panic.

This feeling was something he had never experienced before. It was both novel and repulsive, and he instinctively wanted to get close to it but also deliberately tried to distance himself from it.

Everyone in the house of the Marquis was envious of this scene. All of the women in the house wished that Xuanyuan would be able to help them. They were all holding on to them, especially Wei Yaru, who was hiding in the dark and had bitten her lips to the point where they were bleeding.

Ulan Yi!

She took away the Xuanyuan that should have been her!

Sooner or later, she would take back what should have been hers, and make it so that she would never be able to recover it!

The thick bridal veil prevented Xiao Lan from seeing anything. Without vision, a person's senses would become sharper and sharper. At this moment, she could clearly hear the sound of Xuanyuan Wentian's powerful heartbeat beating again and again.

Hearing Xuanyuan Yun's heart that inexplicably beat faster, Xiao Lan's heart started to calm down, and her stiff body started to loosen up.

Naturally, Xuanyuan Feng clearly felt Xiao Lan's change and couldn't help but lower his head to look at the woman in his arms. Just as he was about to walk down the stairs, the strength on Xuanyuan Feng's arm increased by a bit.

Xiao Lan felt the arm around her waist increase in strength. She couldn't help but look towards Xuanyuan, and although she couldn't see Xuanyuan Feng, the direction she was looking at was actually his face.

A gentle breeze blew by as the corner of the bridal veil was slowly lifted. The two of them looked at each other.

Xiao Lan's body once again went stiff.

She saw something in Xuanyuan'er's eyes that might have been called gentleness.

How could that be?

Xiao Lan looked over seriously, his slightly shocked eyes staring straight into Xuanyuan Feng's eyes. However, Xuanyuan Feng's eyes were still cold and indifferent, the gentleness just now was like an illusion that had appeared for Xiao Lan.

Xiao Lan rolled her eyes. Looks like she was indeed mistaken.

As the bridal veil fell back, Xiao Lan's line of sight was once again covered.

At this moment, Xuanyuan Yun's gaze was still fixated on Xiao Lan's face as he covered the bridal veil. The instant the bridal veil was lifted by the wind, Xiao Lan seriously looked at him with eyes that made him absent-minded for an instant.

So her eyes weren't cold and indifferent, and weren't cold and indifferent at the same time. Instead, they were agile and enchanting, and at that instant, even his own eyes couldn't help but soften a bit.

Following which he saw astonishment in Xiao Lan's eyes.

Xuanyuan Yun couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

Was she that surprised that he was a little better to her?

When Rufeng saw Xuanyuan Wentian carrying Xiao Lan out with a faint smile on his lips, Rufeng felt that he was no longer struck by lightning, but had been completely scorched.

Prince, ah, prince, what on earth is his prince thinking? He really doesn't understand.

He wasn't the only one who didn't understand. Above the palace hall, Xuanyuan Hong sat on the steps with a perplexed look on his face. Gao Yuan was waiting quietly with his head lowered, occasionally sneaking a glance at Xuanyuan Hongxi.

After a long while, Xuanyuan Hongxi, who was sitting on the stairs, suddenly looked up.

"Gao Yuan, what do you mean by regent? "He actually made Tianlan wear the Nine Sparrows' phoenix coronet and ceremonial robes. Is he trying to express his goodwill towards me, or does he have some other motive?"

"This …" Gao Yuan looked troubled.

How could he know? This Regent had never played his cards according to common sense. Who knew why he did that?

The last time he accepted the decree, it was because he was about to die. Who knew what plans he was planning when he married him this time?

Xuanyuan Hongxi's face turned cold when she saw the constipation on Gao Yuan's face. Stupid things could never help him.

Xuanyuan Hongxi looked into the distance once again. What on earth was that for?

Could it be...

Xuanyuan Hongxi's eyes suddenly widened, "Could it be that he wants to rope the Wei family in through Weiyi? "Does he want the Wei family to help him?"

When Gao Yuan heard this, he was even more afraid to speak. If that was the case, then this matter would be serious, but it was also the work of an emperor.

It was he, Xuanyuan Hongxi, who had given it to the regent.

With this thought in mind, Xuanyuan Hongxi couldn't sit still any longer. She quickly stood up from the stairs and started pacing back and forth.

Gao Yuan carefully looked at Xuanyuan Hongxi and could not help but think of something. He had really eaten too much salt and given himself time to do nothing. Now, he had found something to do.

Xuanyuan Yun who had stepped out of the manor carried Xiao Lan and entered a carriage in front of everyone's gazes.

All the people who had been waiting for a long time saw that a group of Xuan Yuan's cloaks had disappeared, and for a moment sounds of regret filled the entire street.

When the wind recovered from the lightning, it looked at the crowded road and thought that his master was right. If he were to ride on horseback, it would probably be in the afternoon by the time he gets to the palace.

After waiting for a short moment for Xuanyuan Feng to hug Xiao Lan as he entered the carriage, he gave an order like the wind to welcome the new group that returned to the estate in an awe-inspiring manner.

Red silk fluttered outside the carriage as music flew in the air. The carriage was completely silent without a sound.

One inside and one outside seemed to be two different worlds.

Xiao Lan sat quietly on the spot with his eyes closed, breathing lightly.

After a long while, Xiao Lan, who had started to feel depressed, reached out her hand to the bridal veil but just as she was about to remove it, Xuanyuan Wentian's ice-cold voice rang out.

"Sit down."

Xiao Lan's arm stopped in midair for a moment, but he didn't withdraw it.

Very quickly, Xuanyuan Yun's voice sounded out again, "If you don't wish for anything to happen to you, then put your hands down."

He even threatened her with Yu-An!

Xiao Lan abruptly clenched his fingers, but had no choice but to put them down. He continued to sit quietly on the spot.

Suddenly, a cold and angry female voice rang out.

"Senior Brother, are you really going to marry this woman? "Do you know that Princess Nanxuan, Duanmu Yan, is already on her way to Donghan? When you left Yunshan, Master specifically told you to take Duanmu Yan into the backyard no matter what, you …"

"Shut up!"

"Heh," Xuanyuan Wentian uttered in a cold voice. "You don't need to point out what this duke wants to do."

"But Senior Brother, you are disobeying the orders of your Master!"
