Chapter 95 True and False Zuoqiu Key

The banquet begins on the boat.

The sound of fireworks outside continues.

The sacrificial ceremony is over, but what follows is a happy time to have fun with the people.

Outside the painting boat, dancers have already started performing.

The people beside the Jing River were still reluctant to leave and stayed to observe.

All kinds of food were sent to the interior of the painting boat.

Zuo Qiuyao sat down to rest, ignoring the various looking eyes around him.

The princes and grandchildren at the scene did not dare to mix up those messy things, and all bowed their heads in silence.

For the crown prince's escape, he naturally disliked this marriage.

To marry a virtuous wife is to marry a virtuous woman, no matter how powerful she is, so what?
So everyone secretly looked at Zuo Qiuyao's expression at this time.

Who knew that she was in a natural state, and she didn't seem to mind at all.

Zhong Lijin was very pleased with himself, it seemed that Master Guoshi really didn't have the slightest interest in this marriage contract.

"Sir, are we leaving like this? Wouldn't that mean slapping the Imperial Master in the face in public?" Yu Xi also didn't expect that his master would get up and leave the boat directly.

Lin Lanting got off the boat, but his expression was unpredictable: "Who said I was leaving?"

"Ah? Master, this is..." Yu Xi didn't understand.

At this time, all the boats had docked, and there were law enforcers on both sides to keep them away from the people.

However, at this moment, an old and hearty voice suddenly came from not far away: "Prince!"

Who else could it be if it wasn't Puyang Xiao?
He was the leader and led Meng Chaoci and other hundreds of officials to come in this direction.

When seeing Puyang Xiao, Lin Lanting's expression became dark and unpredictable for a moment.

After all, when he woke up, he was not far from the old prime minister's mansion.

"It turned out to be the prime minister..." Lin Lanting still had a very respectful attitude towards Puyang Xiao. The contribution made by this old prime minister to the entire East Wu Kingdom is indescribable.The founders of the country are highly respected, even Zhong Lihai respects them very much.

Although Lin Lanting knew what Puyang Xiao and his group were planning to do, he still asked verbally: "I wonder what this is, Prime Minister?"

"Master Guoshi's sacrificial ceremony today is so successful, this old man and Prime Minister Meng came to congratulate Mr. Master Guoshi." After Puyang Xiao finished speaking, seeing that Lin Lanting appeared on the boat when he was not at this time, he suddenly thought about it After a few minutes, he asked: "His Royal Highness is not celebrating with the Master of the National Teacher in the boat at this time, and where is he planning to go?"

Although I have always known about the marriage between this girl and the crown prince.

Puyang Xiao also knew something about Lin Lanting.So he doesn't have much opinion on the marriage, it mainly depends on the girl herself.

But no princes or nobles would be really interested in this girl's reputation to the outside world.Although Puyang Xiao felt that they were not worthy of Zuo Qiu Yao.

However, Puyang Xiao also didn't want to see the girl being so disgusted with his own eyes.

Yu Xi thought it was bad.

The old prime minister is on the side of the national teacher.

This time, he must be dissatisfied with the crown prince.

"Lanting was feeling a little unwell just now, so he came out to breathe for a while. After a while, he went back..." Lin Lanting said.

Puyang Xiao's sharp eyes only slowed down a bit, "That's good! Since you have a marriage contract with the National Teacher, Prince, you have to get along well with the National Teacher. Sometimes you can only know what the other party is like by getting to know him better. So, don’t listen to outsiders.”

"Yes, Lanting understands." Lin Lanting naturally knew the meaning of Puyang Xiao's words.

Today he also understands that there is a huge difference between this Master Guoshi and the rumors.

Of course he would understand well.

At this time, Lanzhi who was following Puyang Xiao was still looking at Lin Lanting curiously.

I was originally curious about what the frail and sick prince who was said to be engaged to the Imperial Master and had been recuperating all year round looked like.
This look is shocking!
"fool?"

What Lanzhi blurted out made everyone's eyes turn to her.

Lanzhi was so frightened that she immediately knelt down, and realized that she was so shameless on such an occasion: "The servant just admitted to the wrong person, it wasn't intentional."

She was cautious throughout the whole process today, afraid of making mistakes, but she never expected that something would go wrong at this time.

Calling a fool in front of the prince?

Everyone here who wants to crush her to death is like crushing an ant.

Puyang Xiao didn't expect that Lanzhi would make a mistake in front of Lin Lanting?She is Zuo Qiuyao's girl, and her status is special, so it is naturally impossible for him to let something happen to her.

Meng Chao Ci next to him seized the opportunity to raise his eyebrows, pointing at Lanzhi and venting his anger: "The bold and lowly maidservant is so presumptuous in front of the prince! Those who don't know thought it was taught by the prime minister's mansion. What, come here People! Drag them down and beat them to death with sticks."

Lin Lanting looked down at Lanzhi who was kneeling on the ground with a very complicated expression.

If he remembered correctly, this... was the little maid next to Zuo Qiu Yao?
I saw it when I was in Mount Akihara.

And Puyang Xiao has already opened his mouth immediately: "Prince, this maid is Uncle Fu's daughter, and I brought it here to see the world today. I must have been shocked by the prince's aura just now, so I talked nonsense. I still hope the prince Lord, my lord ignores the faults of villains, forgive this girl once."

Lin Lanting's originally indifferent face became intensely interested because of this sentence: "The prime minister said that she is Uncle Fu's daughter?"

"...Yes...yes." Puyang Xiao was inexplicably guilty when he saw Lin Lanting's eyes.It was the first time that he felt such a strong oppressive air pressure in front of the simple and unhealthy prince.

Yu Xi's eyes widened when he saw Lanzhi from behind. He also blurted out at this time: "No, this...he is obviously Lanzhi, the maid of Zuoqiu Yao, the young lady of the Zuoqiu family!"

Hearing Yu Xi's voice, Lanzhi raised her head in shock again, trembling with fright because of the word "beating to death" with a stick, at this moment she looked at Yu Xi with tears in her eyes, and she was already in tears.

She never expected to see Yu Xi here, and... he was still standing behind Lin Lanting.

He turned out to be the prince's man?

Although Lanzhi was frightened, her mind was in a mess.

She has only seen both sides of the river.

The first side was Qiu Yuanshan when he and the masked master rescued her and the young lady.

The second side was the lantern festival a few days ago, and he seemed to be looking for someone.

And she had only seen one side of the prince.It was the idiot who crushed the lady's carriage in the street and gave him a token.But, how could he be the prince?And at this time, he looked down at him with unpredictable and cold eyes, as if he were a different person.

Because of Yu Xi's words, Puyang Xiao also showed a bit of a gaffe, and looked at Lanzhi to ask how she really met the prince?
This... Didn't he lie in public?
