When King Nanyang saw that Lan Nuoling had kept people here, he wanted to say something, but out of consideration for his sister's reputation, he didn't say much.
Thinking that he was his sisters' biological brother, he would eventually have to face these intrigues, and now he could take precautions in advance, so he didn't say anything more.
Gan State, Zhenguogong Mansion
"He has never concealed his thoughts." Long Mujiang laughed disdainfully.
In the past, he might not have been able to tell what kind of tree it was. After all, in winter, the branches were covered with snow, making it difficult to identify.
But he happened to recognize the tree in front of him. After all, he had planted it himself, so he could still tell the difference.
"Bring the person up." Long Mujiang gave the order directly when he saw Xiao Yangzi coming in behind him.
Xiao Yangzi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then turned around and went out again. When he came in again, he was followed by Monkie and another imperial guard, who were escorting a disheveled man in.
"Your Majesty, the person is here." Monkie pushed hard from the side, and the disheveled man knelt down directly.
"Your Majesty, why are you looking at me like this? If you want to kill me, just do it." Song Yu raised his head, a look of sarcasm on his face. "Your Majesty is so capable, why did you only find this humble minister?"
"Why are you putting pressure on me here? Didn't you find Aze either?" Long Mujiang was not angry at all, and his tone was extremely calm.
After hearing Long Mujiang's question, Song Yu fell silent. He indeed didn't find Xiaoze either.
At the beginning, when he heard that Xiaoze was unconscious in the palace, he wanted to break into the palace to take a look, because he knew that Long Mujiang would definitely not make things too difficult for Xiaoze.
So Ozawa was in a coma, he must have really been in a coma, but reason made him stop this suicidal behavior. He could only inquire about the news over and over again, hoping for news that Ozawa had woken up.
God helps those who work hard. When Long Mujiang was about to return to the capital, he learned that Xiaoze had woken up. At that time, he was really glad for his rationality.
Later, it was heard that the palace where Ozawa lived caught fire and Ozawa died in the fire. At that time, he picked up his sword and prepared to return to Shangjing City.
It was Dai Nian who stopped him, saying that it might just be a trick, and finally got the secret news that Xiaoze faked his death and escaped.
At that time, Song Yu was the most frightened and the most surprised. He was surprised that Xiaoze had escaped from the palace, but he was also frightened that he would never hear from Xiaoze again, so he looked everywhere for news about Xiaoze.
As a result, I returned disappointed time and time again and never really met Ozawa.
"I thought that after being caught by you, I would be able to see Xiaoze." Song Yu's voice was low, but Long Mujiang could still hear it clearly.
Long Mujiang felt a pain in his heart when he heard this. Song Yu had been hiding very well. It was when he was trying to find out about Aze that he discovered there was another force, so he set up a trap to capture Song Yu.
"I also thought that you would have news about him, but in the end it was all in vain." Long Mujiang sighed, drew out Monkie's sword, and slashed it down.
“Pah.”
"Aren't you afraid that I will attack you?" Song Yu rubbed his wrist, stood up and stared at Long Mujiang.
"You won't, at least not before we get any news from him." Long Mujiang returned the sword to Monkie, not caring about Song Yu's hostility at all.
He now needs Song Yu to help him eliminate it, and Song Yu also needs his status and power. They must work together to find Aze, so before that, he will not take action against Song Yu, and Song Yu will not take action against him.
Song Yu didn't say anything else, but looked up at the osmanthus tree with snow hanging on its branches. This was the tree that Xiaoze had planted in his yard.
At that time, he loved summer lotus flowers the most, so he planted a pond of lotus flowers in the yard. Every summer, Xiaoze would pick lotus leaves to make green lotus cakes.
Later, when he saw Xiaoze always lying under the osmanthus tree in his yard, he said that he also wanted to plant an osmanthus tree in his mansion and imitate Xiaoze's lazy appearance.
Then Ozawa smiled and found an osmanthus tree for him and planted it in the yard with him.
The sapling of the osmanthus tree has grown into a thriving tree, but the person who planted it has disappeared.
"You still miss him, right?" Long Mujiang's tone was very light, but people could still hear clearly what he was asking.
"What's the use of thinking about it? After all, I lost it, and it was no longer mine when I found it." Song Yu smiled bitterly, feeling indescribable bitterness in his heart.
"I seem to have lost it too, but I still want this treasure to belong to me." Long Mujiang retracted his gaze and looked at Song Yu.
"Your Majesty, if it is lost and then found, he will not want it anymore. I am a humble servant, so how can Your Majesty be special?" Seeing the determination in Long Mujiang's eyes, Song Yu felt even more bitter in his heart.
The current Long Mujiang is so much like himself at the beginning, but in the end he didn't get the chance again, and even pushed people further and further away.
By the time you no longer have the qualifications to stand by his side and repent, it is already too late.
"I don't believe it. I believe I am the most special one." Long Mujiang shook his head and turned to walk outside. "You will still be the Duke of Zhenguo in the future, and the owner of this mansion should come back."
Song Yu didn't say anything, but just stared at Long Mujiang's departing back with a complicated expression.
The owner of the Zhenguo Mansion has returned, but the owner of the Xu Mansion has never returned, and even Zeju has never welcomed its own master. So is there any need for the owner of the Zhenguo Mansion to return?
Minglan Kingdom, Regent's Palace
"You seem a little depressed lately?" Lan Nuoling leaned on the couch and looked at Xu Tianze's sad face.
"Heh." Xu Tianze sneered and didn't want to pay any attention to Lan Nuoling.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and Lan Nuoling is increasingly treating herself as an outsider. Every morning after breakfast, she goes into his house and does not return to her own yard until dinner is over.
Not only did this happen every day, but every time she came, she had to ask him to order tea. The little tea he had in stock was gone before the middle of winter.
Even so, she had the nerve to ask him why he looked so sad. Why didn't she know Lan Nuoling was so shameless before?
Lan Nuoling blushed when she received Xu Tianze's cold stare. It was cold and she really didn't want to move. She didn't know why, even though the charcoal fire was the same, Xu Tianze's place was warmer than hers.
If Xu Tianze wasn't a man, she might not have planned to leave at night. It took courage for her to go back to her yard every night.
Add to that the dried plum blossoms that Xu Tianze had dried, mixed with some autumn dried fruits and snow water, and the tea was fragrant when it came out, which made her even more reluctant to move.
"Look, I just want to stay here for a while longer, why are you so impatient?" Although Lan Nuoling felt a little embarrassed, she couldn't admit it.
"Then what do you mean by kicking me out at every turn?" Xu Tianze rolled his eyes even more openly this time and challenged directly.
