queen and pro

Chapter 238

The prince's words were obviously boasting of Lanqin's appearance, but they were actually implying that it was not known who would become the son-in-law. Everyone still had a chance, so these words immediately won the unanimous approval of the young men in the audience.

Only Lan Qin was full of doubts. Does she have scars on her face? Are these people blind, or do they have a different aesthetic view than ordinary people, thinking that scars on her face are incomplete beauty, regrettable beauty?

"The prince is right, the princess's beauty is rare in the world, and I want to toast the princess too!" Another young man came forward with a confident smile.

The prince is well aware of Lan Qintian's fearless character, if she is pushed into a hurry, she will immediately turn her face and deny anyone, so it's better to stop in moderation.So he quickly stood up and joked: "You can't do this. How many of you are there? My sister only has one mouth, so how can she drink more than you? Let's do it. Let's toast together. It saves trouble and effort!"

As soon as the prince's words came out, all the people stood up, whether intentionally or not, and raised their wine glasses.Only the ninth princess stood there alone, looking resentfully at Lan Qin who had taken away all her halo and favor.

After drinking a glass of wine, Lan Qin was about to find an excuse to leave this boring banquet, but suddenly there were bursts of flute blowing in the hall.

Lan Qin didn't have time to listen carefully, and the nine princesses suddenly called out joyfully: "Brother Hanyang's flute sound, is Brother Hanyang also there?"

"Princess Nine, I'm here!" A man in a navy blue gown with an expressionless face came in and saluted the princes and princesses respectfully, but his reaction was quite different from that of the others. His eyes didn't stay on Lan Qin's face for more than three seconds.

Seeing his estranged action, Princess Jiu's lips immediately turned up so high that she could hang a bucket, Lan Qin didn't want to go back, since someone wanted to show her a good show for free, why would she not for what?

"What's the point of just drinking, we want to play games, Brother Hanyang, I'll play the piano, you play the flute, how about a show?"

Lan Qin almost laughed out loud. Could it be that the Ninth Princess wants to imitate someone else's zither and flute?It's a pity that Luohua deliberately flowed ruthlessly, and this man named Hanyang clearly showed a look of embarrassment on his face.

All of a sudden, Lan Qin's bad intentions came to a head, he stood up, and said loudly: "There are talent shows at every banquet, so nothing new, why don't we play something new!"

Princess Jiu was very annoyed when she was interrupted. She glanced at Lan Qin angrily, and then asked angrily, "It's fresh, so what are you talking about?"

Lan Qin already had an idea in his mind, stood up, and blurted out: "Let's play a game of hide-and-seek. Everyone hides within the scope of this hall, and then the other one looks for it. If you can find it within half a stick of incense, it's fine." The person who was looking for won, if not found, the person who was looking for lost the matter, and the person who lost must agree to a request of the person who won, as long as the request does not violate morality, do not kill people and set fires, marry by force, Anything is fine, Jiumei, what do you think?"

The ninth princess was very moved by that request, so she also raised her head, nodded and said: "Okay, I will do as you said!"

"We're all old men now, so don't get meddled, you young people have fun!" Several ministers present who hadn't had a drink quickly stood up and walked out of the room slowly!
"Okay, let me and the princess be the referee!" Seeing that the two younger sisters agreed, the prince couldn't object, but he was worried, so he had to stay here and supervise himself.

"Then I'll be the one to look for, you all go hide!" Jiugong said decisively, then turned around, turned her back to the wall, and stopped talking.

The prince looked at her helplessly, and nodded apologetically to everyone.

Everyone immediately acted like a bird and a beast, and dispersed.

Lan Qin also immediately ran to the small room next to her, opened the window gently, climbed out, followed the trees next to her, climbed up to the roof, stepped on the tiles lightly, and ran to the other side.

One minute later, Princess Nine came out, walked around the room casually, and found half of the people at once, and then she continued to search one by one.

Lan Qin was originally hiding on the roof of the main hall, observing every move of the ninth princess. She wanted to take the opportunity to sneak back to sleep, but if the prince found out, she would not let the ninth princess have anything to say, she just wanted to be upright Brightly destroy the good deeds of the nine princesses.

Suddenly, there was a low voice of conversation in the hall below. Relying on her keen facial features, Lan Qin quickly caught her name from it. On the top of the house, a piece of tile was gently lifted, and by the faint yellow candlelight, she saw two elderly women below, one of them was dressed in plain clothes, a bit like a monk's attire, if it weren't for the elegant clothes on top of her head. Lan Qin really thought she was a nun with black hair, and the other one was dressed as a servant.

"Your Majesty, don't be sad, it's not your fault!" The old woman next to her kept reassuring.

"No!" The woman shook her head, "If it wasn't for me, the little princess wouldn't have died, and the queen wouldn't have died in depression. Do you know that over the years, every night when I close my eyes, I dream of the queen? , she opened her bloody mouth and asked me to pay back her daughter's life!"

"Mother, the little princess is not dead, don't you think she's back? You saw it just now!" The old mother stretched out her dry fingers like dead branches, and took the woman's hand.

"No...she's not a little princess, she's a queen, she's not Rui Ning, she's a queen, she's asking for my life, so let me go to hell and make amends for her!" Saying that, she rushed towards the pillar next to her In the past, I saw the old nanny suddenly jumped up, raised her hand and slashed at her neck, the woman drooped her head and passed out.

The old mother looked at the woman with a complicated expression, touched her face with her withered right hand, and said distressedly: "My child, it has been hard for you for so many years!" Then she gently hugged the woman, walked to the table, and stretched out her hand on the table. After pressing down on his legs and feet a few times, the ground immediately split open on both sides, and a square hole appeared, which only allowed one person to pass through.

Looking at the empty room, Lan Qin fought in her heart for a long time, but she still didn't go down. After all, she didn't want to court death because she was unfamiliar with this place.

She gently covered the tiles, then bent over, crawled slowly, step by step towards the direction of the main hall, and after a while, she heard the nine princesses shouting: "No, Rui Ning is nothing at all. She is cheating, she must have left the hall, otherwise I would have turned over the entire hall, why can't I find her?"
