Chapter 55
After squatting on the ground for a long time, I slowly stood up, feeling dizzy and almost unable to stand.

She staggered to the table, picked up the jug and poured water, and drank it.

The water was very cold, until it reached the bottom of her heart, she was still too weak after all.

In today's situation, if Chu Zhao hadn't asked Xia Xiang for help, he could only hide and hide, and even gave up the name "Liulan".

If he had a little bit of capital, he wouldn't be so passive, and finally got Xia Xiang involved.

Wiping away her tears, she heard someone coming up, she looked up, and it was Yuechan.

Holding a piano in her hand, when she saw Du Lanyan, she smiled and said: "The maids in the courtyard are not here. I saw no one, so I came up by myself. Please don't take offense, Miss."

Du Lanyan shook her head and did not speak.

Yuechan stepped forward, carefully placed the qin on the table, and said: "The master said that the girl has a pair of dexterous hands and can play the qin well, so she asked the servant to bring the Tianyin qin to the girl."

Tianyinqin!The famous piano that was lost a hundred years ago!

Du Lanyan was startled, looked down at the qin carefully, then stretched out her hand to pluck the strings, the sound of the qin was long and long, it was indeed Tianyin qin.

Du Lanyan raised her head, and was about to ask her to take it back, but thinking about what Yuechan said before, she said, "Don't send things over from now on, I'm humble, and these things are too expensive, I can't afford them."

"Master thinks things out on his own, slaves can only do things according to orders." Yuechan did not agree, but replied like this.

She lowered her head slightly, and although she looked like a respectful servant, she was neither humble nor overbearing. How could a servant from a business family have such a temperament? Du Lanyan paused, and then asked: "Your master is really just Merchant?"

"Master's family has been doing business for generations, there is nothing false." Yuechan didn't understand why Du Lanyan would ask such a question, but she answered truthfully, looking up at Du Lanyan calmly.

Seeing that Du Lanyan was silent, her eyes were slightly red, and she seemed to have something on her mind, she said with concern, "Miss, what's on your mind, if you trust Yuechan, why not tell me, Yuechan will make up your mind for you?"

"No." Du Lanyan shook her head, "It's just that I didn't sleep well last night, and I'm a little mentally ill."

Seeing that Du Lanyan didn't want to say more, Yuechan didn't ask any further questions, but instead gave a blessing and went back to Diancuifang.

Du Lanyan sat quietly at the table, her eyes fell on Tianyinqin, she stretched out her hand to caress it, and then plucked the strings to start the tone, the tone moved with her heart, and unexpectedly revealed a little helplessness and melancholy.

Suddenly there was a sound of "clank", and a string broke. She was stunned, picked up the piano, and put it in the corner.

It's time for her to think about her future, relying on King Li, although she can protect herself temporarily, who knows what will happen in the future?

Xia Xiang specifically reminded her that Wei Jiali was not a good master, presumably she knew his style of behavior well, so she reminded her.

She has to plan for herself.

At this time, He'er's voice came from the yard, still excited.

Du Lanyan fetched water to wash away the tears on her face. What she was worried about did not happen. No one came to trouble her. Xia Xiang entered the palace, which is a good thing for Wei Jiali, and he will definitely send someone to protect her safety , and Xia Xiang is a master herself, so she won't be bullied.

Thinking of this, I felt a little better, so I went to bed and lay down, and fell asleep after a while.

When she woke up, it was already dark, she got up and called He'er to come in to serve her.

When He'er came in, she said, "Chu Zhao asked to see her. I saw her asleep earlier and was waiting downstairs."

Du Lanyan nodded, she didn't see him immediately, but asked He'er to get some food to eat and drink, and then she had strength, and then asked He'er to bring him up.

Chu Zhao came in. He was wearing a dark blue gown today, and his hair was tied up meticulously. It seemed that he was not as unrestrained as usual, but rather mature and steady.

When dressed like this, this man has a feeling that people can rely on at ease.

"Mr. Chu, please sit down!" Du Lanyan sat down, stretched out her hand and made a "please" gesture, Chu Zhao lifted his hem and sat down.

The tea for guests was already prepared on the table, Du Lanyan did not speak first, but poured tea for him and herself, then raised the cup and sipped it, waiting for him to speak.

"Liulan, I'm here today to ask for something." About half a cup of tea, he opened his mouth.

Du Lanyan didn't speak, but looked at him, beckoning him to speak.

Looking into Du Lanyan's eyes, what Chu Zhao wanted to say suddenly got stuck in his throat, and he couldn't spit it out.

He looked at Du Lanyan, hesitated to speak.

"But it's okay to say." Du Lanyan couldn't guess what he wanted to say, and judging by his appearance, it seemed that what he wanted to say was difficult to say.

After hearing Du Lanyan's words, he seemed to have made up his mind. He took out a jade pendant from his sleeve and put it on the table, saying: "I came today to ask for a marriage. Liu Lan, please marry me."

Du Lanyan paused, and her eyes fell on the jade pendant on the table. It was a pure white jade pendant in the shape of a magnolia flower, and it looked like it belonged to a woman.

"This is my mother's jade pendant." Seeing that she was silent, Chu Zhao hurriedly explained.

Du Lanyan picked up the jade pendant and looked at him. He lowered his eyes and gently held the hand under the table, revealing his nervousness.

"Okay." Du Lanyan grinned and said with a smile.

Chu Zhao raised his head suddenly, looked at her with disbelief, his lips trembling slightly, "Really?"

"Yes." Du Lanyan nodded.

"You really agreed to marry me?!" With ecstasy on his face, he stretched out his hands to hold Du Lanyan's hands tightly.

Du Lanyan's hand hurt from being grabbed by him, and he frowned slightly, but he hurriedly let go and said, "I'm sorry, I'm so excited!"

Somewhat at a loss.

Seeing him like that, Du Lanyan groaned for a while, and then said: "Marry you, you will take me away from the capital, we will find a village, I will weave cloth, you will plow the fields, and we will live a life of indifference, is that possible? "

Chu Zhao looked at him with a froze expression on his face, and then hesitated.

"Brilliant Future and I, you can only choose one." Du Lanyan said slowly, seeing his expression, she already knew his choice.

"I know that although you have a good impression of me, you will not go to the stage of asking for marriage. You asked me to marry because of what Master Guangci said, I am a noble person, and the person I marry must be a noble person. "Du Lanyan snorted coldly, "I didn't expect you to be such a superstitious person."

"That's all for asking for a marriage. What you have always wanted is a future. Yesterday you begged Xia Xiang to support me. I accept this love and will find a bright future for you." Du Lanyan said slowly, but Chu Zhao was His eyes widened, "How do you know what I'm asking for is a bright future?"

"Do you still remember the last time you were in Hanyan Pavilion?" Du Lanyan asked back, Chu Zhao nodded, and she continued: "At that time, you risked the following crimes to go to Hanyan Pavilion to be an important person. Was it really because of me? You know Chen Chen Wang Aicai intentionally showed it in front of him and asked him to recommend you to the court as an official, am I right?"

At that time, she didn't like Chu Zhao because she saw his motives, so she interrupted and hindered him. Speaking of it, if it wasn't for her, he might already be in court now.

 Starting today, we will resume a new update, please support us a lot. (*^__^*)...
