Chapter 351 Wishful Thinking



Dongfang Jin nodded slightly: "I did it, he deserves to die."

Lian Muhan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "How about you? Are you okay that night? I wanted to send you back, but the Queen Mother came to see me for something. Did you go back in time to save An Qingran?"

"The Queen Mother wants to see you for something?" Dongfang Jin was stunned for a moment, "What is it?"

"It's strange. She just asked me what books I usually read and whether I know martial arts. She also asked me what I like to do. I told her that I like to look at beautiful women..." Lian Muhan spat out another mouthful of blood.

Dongfang Jin kicked him and stood up: "Be careful next time if you make mistakes again."

Lian Muhan said hurriedly: "I promise that next time I will use my life to protect An Qingran as long as she needs me."

"Just stop making trouble." Dongfang Jin left.

Lian Muhan stood there and ran back to the house quickly. Soon, there was a scream, and then the sound of him smashing the mirror was heard. The people outside were so scared that they didn't dare to go in, so they had to find a doctor to treat him.

Lian Muhan sat there, feeling hatred and anger. He didn't hate Dongfang Jin, but Dongfang Ye and the Queen Mother. If either of these two people didn't exist that night, what happened today wouldn't have happened.

Now that he thought about it, why did he feel that the Queen Mother wanted to distract him on purpose? Did she want to understand him? Anyone would know about those meaningless topics, so why did she ask him so seriously?

Also, Dongfang Ye is really a madman. He even dares to touch the prince's woman. This time he is just prevented from seeing people. When the prince succeeds to the throne, his good days will begin.

Dongfang Jin found Murong Lanxin with a frighteningly gloomy face. Murong Lanxin was so scared that she didn't dare to go out these days, let alone go to the East Palace. She didn't know how much Dongfang Jin would remember after he woke up. He would definitely think that he did it. In fact, after hearing that the Queen Mother had drugged them, she felt very conflicted, but she knew that this was her chance, and if she missed it, she would never have it again.

But she didn't expect that she was too stupid, or Dongfang Jin was too strong. There was only An Qingran in his heart. Realizing this made her extremely desperate.

"Murong Lanxin, listen to me. If you dare to plot against me again, I will not forgive you," Dongfang Jin's voice was very cold.

He spoke his mind directly.

There was no change on Murong Lanxin's face. She just stared at Dongfang Jin in a daze. In the past, he would always look pleasant when talking to her, and sometimes, he even smiled at her. But now, he looked at her as if she were an enemy.

"I... I'm sorry. Believe it or not, what happened that day was completely beyond my expectations and beyond my control..."

"I don't want to hear any explanation. Also, don't think about hurting Qingran. If I knew, I would never forgive you. Explain it clearly." Dongfang Jin took a step forward, his eyes like a devil, "I'm telling you, in this life, I will never marry any other woman except Qingran, and you don't have to waste your thoughts on me. I won't appreciate it."

"I understand." Murong Lanxin could only say these two words under his pressure.

Dongfang Jin sneered and left.

Murong Lanxin followed Dongfang Jin's figure with her eyes until he disappeared. She returned to the house in despair. What did he say just now? He would only marry An Qingran?

Humph, Murong Lanxin snorted coldly.

He didn't scare her.

Or maybe it didn't scare her to death, but made her even more embarrassed. It had nothing to do with whether she would marry him or not, but it aroused her hatred.

The Queen Mother looked at her expression and finally spoke: "What's wrong? Who has offended my little princess?"

The Queen Mother seemed to be in a good mood.

Murong Lanxin said quietly: "The prince came to warn me..."

The Queen Mother sighed: "Men don't like to be tricked. If it succeeds, they will take responsibility. It's a pity..."

Murong Lanxin also felt it was a pity. It was her own performance that night that was the problem.

She wanted to recall what happened that night. No matter what, she finally met him and kissed him, which made her love him even more. If she let go like this, it would be impossible.

"Don't be impatient. Nothing lasts forever. So, his promise was just a temporary impulse..."

Murong Lanxin suddenly understood.

***********

An Qingran sat there thinking. She felt that she should think of some way. It was really stupid to be drugged like this. She should be able to taste it. Therefore, she still had a lot to learn. For example, when she entered the Qingming Hall that time, she still didn’t smell the smoke. What caused her to lose her vigilance?

She blamed herself for everything, and if anything really happened, it would be her fault.

Also, how can this needle hit the target with just one strike and make the person unable to move?

She tried to insert a needle into her own Huantiao acupoint, but ended up kicking over the small table in front of her, spilling the tea on it all over the floor. Scared, Rendong immediately stepped forward and said, "Master, please be careful, you've got yourself burned."

An Qingran did not tell the Crown Prince about Dongfang Run. She didn't know why, but she vaguely felt that the fewer people were implicated, the better.

She was really grateful to Dongfang Run.

So she invited Lou Wanyue and Dongfang Ruoxue to the palace for a small gathering.

She knew that it would be better for her not to meet Dongfang Run at this time, as she didn't want to cause any gossip.

Dongfang Ye, how is she going to deal with him?

Dongfang Ruoxue gave her a painting, a flying picture, which depicted her dancing figure, flying into the sky with clothes as beautiful as a fairy.

An Qingran liked it very much and asked someone to hang it up immediately. Lou Wanyue also gave her a gift, a small sachet. She embroidered it herself, with very exquisite workmanship, and two lily scents were placed inside.

There isn't much lily scent this month.

"Look, asking you to come to the palace for a gathering is like I'm short of money and asking you to pay tribute." An Qingran smiled.

"Yes, the temple is too big, there is no reason not to burn incense." Dongfang Ruoxue looked around, "Why didn't Princess Murong come here? I heard that she came to accompany you almost every day. Is it because she didn't come that you are bored? If she was here, you would forget about us."

"Look at what you said. You are not a mean person. Why did you say such a thing today?" An Qingran pulled her hand. "It's hard for you to stay up late to paint. There is still color on your nails."

"She likes you as the Crown Princess the most, and she didn't even ask to draw a single picture for me, her sister-in-law."

"Oh, you are so heartless. Don't you have two pictures of hundreds of children and grandchildren hanging in your new house? I spent a month drawing them."

When Lou Wanyue mentioned having hundreds of children and thousands of grandchildren, she was speechless and could only force a smile: "It was just a joke. You look so anxious. You don't have to be so anxious. When you get married, I will naturally give you all the good things."

Dongfang Ruoxue refused to give in and reached out to tickle her. Lou Wanyue tried to hide, but ended up catching An Qingran again. The three of them laughed together and were very happy.

The laughter traveled far.

When Murong Lanxin entered the room, their laughter stopped, but their smiles were still there. Murong Lanxin stood there with cakes in her hands. When An Qingran saw it was her, she still smiled and said, "It's Princess Lanxin, please come in. I haven't thanked you for the banquet yet."

Murong Lanxin wondered inwardly, what was going on? She didn't know anything?

Dongfang Jin didn’t tell her?

"Sister, I know you are coming to the palace. I am the person who likes lively occasions the most, so please don't think I am annoying." Murong Lanxin said with a smile.

"Are you a disgusting person?" Dongfang Ruoxue joked, "After a year away from Beijing, you have learned to be polite."

Murong Lanxin sat down and said, "You guys had this good thing, but you didn't come to call me. If I hadn't come today, I would have missed it."

"Yes, I will definitely call you next time." An Qingran smiled at Murong Lanxin's arrival, as if she was really their best friend.

But she ruined her mood.

Did she really think she was a fool, or someone who was forgetful?

Both she and Dongfang Jin were drugged at her banquet. It's possible that it was Dongfang Ye, but she can't clear herself of suspicion. After all, those who came into contact with the food at the banquet were all people from the Empress Dowager's palace. It's possible that they wanted to bribe them. Oh, and there's also the Empress Dowager, so she's also a possibility.

The more An Qingran thought about it, the more confused she became, but her expression remained unchanged.

Murong Lanxin felt much more relaxed. It turned out that no one else knew what happened that night. It turned out that everything was over. She still had a chance.

At this moment, Dongfang Jin came back. When he saw Murong Lanxin, his expression froze for a moment, and he turned and went to another room. The women in the room smiled at each other and started talking about their own things. The prince's avoidance was really considerate at this moment.

After everyone left, An Qingran lay there, looking at the ceiling of the bed: "Maybe we should send some gifts over."

"To whom?" Dongfang Jin, who was beside her, stood up and leaned on top of her with a smile on his face. "You were really amazing just now... I was almost out of strength."

An Qingran's face became hot again: "I'm talking about something serious."

Dongfang Jin's fingers began to draw circles on her body, and An Qingran could no longer think properly.

"What's serious?" Dongfang Jin's tongue licked her earring lightly, and An Qingran dodged: "Itchy, hehe... I mean Dongfang Ye married Madam Yun yesterday. Although she is just a concubine, she should show some respect, right? Eh? What's wrong with you? Are you angry?"

"Okay, what are you going to give me?"

"I'm giving it to Madam Yun, not Dongfang Ye, so I'll choose the things." An Qingran sat up. He had taken good care of Madam Yun.

the next day.

Madam Yun received a gift from An Qingran, which was a very valuable box of jewelry. She liked every bit of it when she looked at it. She picked it up and was reluctant to put it down. It seemed that the Crown Princess was really good to her.

I should also think about repaying her.

However, there are still many things to do in this yard, such as serving tea to the concubine.

Also, during the wedding night, the prince had a wound on his face, and no one knew how it happened. Could it be that someone dared to hit the prince? Fortunately, it did not affect his other behaviors...

When she thought of this, she felt very happy.
