The Return of a Prodigal Son 10



"Hmm?" Lan Ling looked at her doubtfully. "What do you mean you don't dare to ask for it?"

Lan Shuang: “…”

I'm used to playing dumb, and I talk a bit too fast.

She quickly grabbed Lan Ling's hand and pressed it against her heart, saying sincerely, "Royal sister, I really like Jiang Lusheng, but I don't like his brother. You may not believe it, but the first time I saw Jiang Lusheng, I knew he was the one for me."

She spoke sincerely and with real feeling. When she looked up, she saw Lan Ling smiling and said, "I really don't believe it. You said the same thing when you sent the third, fifteenth, and twenty-eighth young masters into the mansion."

Lan Shuang: “…”

Why was this mission so difficult? Why did the original owner do this kind of embarrassing things all day? It would be fine if he only slapped himself, but he ended up slapping hers all the time!

Seeing that she was silent, Lan Ling thought that she was doing the same thing this time as before, and sighed, "Shuang'er, you are already twenty years old, not a child anymore. You can't be careless about marriage, offspring—"

"Just because it's difficult to have children doesn't mean you can't have them, right? Besides, children are a matter of fate. You can't force them if you don't have them." Lan Shuang suddenly said seriously, "As long as we like each other, that's enough, isn't it? There are so many royal relatives. One more or one less won't make much difference. If I don't have children, I can still adopt one from my family. It won't be a big deal."

Lan Ling was still a little hesitant. Lan Shuang sighed and unleashed her ultimate move, "Think about the Queen Mother and Father. They loved each other so much, but because of Lord Feng's interference, in the end..."

"I really like Jiang Lusheng and don't want him to follow in his father's footsteps."

Lan Ling's eyes darkened and she stopped talking. After waiting for a long time, she stood up and said in a deep voice, "In that case, it's up to you."

"Thank you, Imperial Sister!"

Lan Shuang coaxed her happily for a few words, and finally made Lan Ling laugh before she said goodbye and left.

After getting on the carriage and lowering the curtain, Lan Shuang rubbed her face and said, "My acting skills are really improving day by day."

888 nodded in agreement, "Yes."

"I finally managed to convince my sister. I hope she doesn't wake up in the middle of the night and change her mind."

Lan Shuang leaned listlessly against the car wall.

The carriage, which was originally moving smoothly, suddenly shook, causing her to fly in the air. The next moment, the carriage suddenly stopped and Lan Shuang was almost thrown out. At the critical moment, she held on to the edge of the window tightly to stabilize her body.

"What's going on?"

She asked, and suddenly a guard's voice came from outside, "Whose daughter are you? How dare you ride a horse in the street and offend an honored person? Can you bear the consequences?"

"Oh, it's Prince Rong's carriage. I'm so sorry, I didn't see it clearly. A child rushed out just now and I was afraid of hitting him, so I dodged him and disturbed the prince's carriage. I hope your Highness will not blame me."

This nonchalant voice clearly shows that he is a playboy.

Lan Shuang was furious. She snorted coldly, opened the curtain and looked out. She saw a young lady in a blue brocade robe sitting on a white horse opposite. Her face was like a silver plate, her eyes were raised, and she looked extremely arrogant.

After searching her mind for a while, she finally matched the person in front of her. This person was once Prince An's follower - Yan Zhenrong, the legitimate daughter of Marquis Jiangyang.

Just looking at the name, you can tell that her mother had high hopes for her. What a great name, to revitalize and prosper. It's a pity that it was given to a fool.

"Really? Where is the child? Let me take a look."

Lan Shuang stood in the carriage with a calm expression.

Yan Zhenrong was stunned. Prince Rong looked pretty good in clothes.

She came to her senses, coughed lightly, turned her head and looked around, but she didn't see a single child. She finally found one, but it was so far away from her that she might not be able to reach it even if she threw it out, let alone bump into it.

Yan Zhenrong: “…”

"Heh—" Lan Shuang sneered, "Miss Yan, if you had just ridden your horse properly, you wouldn't have been so flustered even if a child suddenly rushed out. It's obvious that you were the one riding your horse in the street first, and then you lied and made up a lie—"

Yan Zhenrong still wanted to argue, "Your Majesty——"

"Come here, send her to Jingzhao Prefecture and give her ten lashes according to the law."

"How dare you! My mother is Marquis Jiangyang—"

When Yan Zhenrong heard that he was going to be beaten with a stick, he immediately panicked, spoke without thinking, and even forgot to use respectful titles.

Lan Shuang sneered, "My sister is still the current emperor. How can your mother go over His Majesty?"

Yan Zhenrong's face turned pale and she wanted to say something, but the guards following her were afraid that she would say something else, so they rushed forward to plead for her.

"Even the emperor who breaks the law is subject to the same punishment as the common people. You were caught riding your horse in the street. If I cannot deal with you impartially, how will the people of the capital view you? Will they dare to seek justice when they encounter such a thing in the future?"

Lan Shuang said righteously, "No need to persuade her, take her away to me!"

"Yes." The accompanying guard immediately stepped forward, grabbed Yan Zhenrong's horse and pulled him towards Jingzhao Prefecture.

Yan Zhenrong's guards didn't dare to say anything and followed him dejectedly.

The people applauded and praised Lan Shuang, saying that she was becoming more and more like a prince.

Lan Shuang felt embarrassed by the praise and quickly got into the carriage and left.

Yun Xing, who was hiding in the crowd, watched this scene with a complicated expression.

She seemed to have really changed. How could this happen? Could it be...

Thinking of a possibility, his face darkened, he lowered his head, turned around and squeezed out of the crowd.

When Lan Shuang passed by a pastry shop, she suddenly said, "Stop the car."

The guard stopped the carriage obediently and turned to ask, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

Lan Shuang got off the carriage, went into the pastry shop and bought some freshly baked pastries, which she packed in exquisite food boxes.

She handed the food box to a guard and said, "Send this to the Duke of Ying's mansion and tell them it's from me to the Second Young Master."

"yes."

The guard hurried away with the food box. Lan Shuang turned around and tried to get on the carriage, but someone suddenly called out, "Your Highness, please wait!"

This familiar voice!

Lan Shuang paused, then sped up and climbed onto the carriage using both her hands and feet.

Yun Xing, who had come running out of the alley, thought she hadn't heard him and called out again, "Prince!"

Lan Shuang suddenly climbed faster.

The guard next to him: "..."

What is the prince doing?

Yun Xing “…”

He rushed over and stopped the carriage, saying earnestly, "Your Majesty, I have something to say to you. Please give me a chance."

Lan Shuang was overwhelmed. Why was this person so stubborn? Wasn't he indifferent to the original owner in his previous life?

What’s going on now?

The guard looked at Yun Xing. There were already people around who didn't know what was going on looking at him. Fearing that it might cause a commotion, the guard whispered, "Your Highness, do you want to drive them away?"

Lan Shuang pondered for a moment, then turned around and looked down at Yun Xing. "I think I've made myself clear enough. I have no feelings for you. I've already given you the money for your redemption. You can go wherever you want with it, but don't come looking for me."

"If you do that again—" Lan Shuang's face turned cold and she warned, "I will have you driven out of the capital."
