"My name is Lan Shuiyao!" Shuiyao stood up lazily. She was wearing a bright red dress and looked particularly charming and seductive standing in front of the two newlyweds. "I wish you a long and happy life together!"
The old-fashioned toast sounded particularly harsh to A'luo's ears. He smiled and slowly raised his head. The beautiful smile of the woman in his eyes gradually disappeared. Finally, he looked up at the top of the magnificent hall and drank the wine.
Nan Han also drank it with mixed feelings.
The two of them walked hand in hand towards the next group of guests.
Yue Nanchen reached out his hand and held Lan Shuiyao's, whispering, "Are you envious? If you want, I can give you a wedding that's even more luxurious than this!"
Simply pulling out the little hand is the best answer to Yue Nanchen.
Yue Nanchen smiled faintly, then turned to meet Leng Yichen's charming peach blossom eyes.
Leng Yichen glanced at him sideways, waved the white brocade fan in an extremely chic manner, and revealed a smile that could captivate everyone, but the smile did not reach his eyes and looked a little stiff.
A Luo was the prince after all, so he only toasted a few important figures. Then he sat in his seat, waiting for the ministers to come forward to toast him. By the time the next round came, it was almost dark. Candles were lit in the hall, and luminous pearls were placed. Festive music sounded, and dancers and singers took turns to perform.
After a round of singing and dancing, Emperor Mi suddenly waved his hand and asked the dancers to retreat. "Today is the great day of the marriage between my country Miluo and Nanyue. Here, I have another happy event to announce. It can be considered a double happiness!"
As soon as Emperor Mi said this, Xiangze, who was sitting next to Concubine Ji, could no longer sit still. She seemed to realize something.
, she wanted to stand up, but Concubine Ji held her hand coldly and warned her in a low voice, "Xiangze, you are the princess of Miluo, don't lose your identity as a princess!"
When Xiangze heard this, he immediately turned his eyes to Yue Nanchen opposite him for help, but he was heartless. Yue Nanchen just served food to Lan Shuiyao beside him and never even looked at him from beginning to end.
Xiangze was angry and anxious for a while. At this moment, she heard that Mi Di had announced her marriage to Leng Yichen, and she could hear the voices of people congratulating her.
She wanted to resist, but she had no choice because her mother, whom she respected, loved and feared, was right beside her. She could not resist and could only bow her head and let the tears flow into her heart.
The moment Mi Di made the announcement, Leng Yichen instinctively looked up at Lan Shuiyao, but unfortunately what he saw was the same scene as Xiangze. He curled the corners of his lips wickedly, thanked Mi Di in an unrestrained manner, and turned back to deal with those who were toasting and congratulating him.
Shui Yao rubbed her stomach. She had not expected that this ancient wedding would last so long. She picked some exquisite dishes to eat, but after she was full, she felt a little restless to sit still.
Since Liu Yirou is about to fall, her goal has been achieved. She might as well take advantage of the night to make a fortune!
When Shui Yao thought of the gold, silver and jewelry waiting for her to buy, her hands started itching and she became excited. While everyone was congratulating Leng Yichen and Xiangze, she quietly slipped out of the hall.
Leng Yichen turned his head, looked at the woman's back, smiled gently, and followed closely.
After changing her clothes, she slipped into the Emperor Mi's bedroom. The sight of luxury made Shui Yao smile. She picked out the most valuable things and put them in her bag. Just as she was about to leave, her eyes darkened and she was startled. She dodged behind her instantly.
The fierce murderous aura coming from the attack.
"It's you?" Shui Yao exclaimed. She didn't expect that the person who attacked her was Yue Nanchen who had a faint smile on his face.
"Red Rose, we meet again! But don't be nervous, we are not enemies this time, but friends. Since you like these treasures so much, why don't we cooperate? I also want to avenge the poison of the Torrential Pear Blossom Needle!"
Yue Nanchen smiled faintly and looked Lan Shuiyao up and down.
He knew that Lan Shuiyao would not stay still obediently!
After calming down, Lan Shuiyao lazily shook her hair and looked at the man in front of her through the cold golden mask, "Cooperation? The dignified Prince Yongnan wants to cooperate with me, a wanted criminal of the imperial court?"
"We are not in Nanyue now, I am not the King of Yongnan, and you are not a wanted criminal of the court. We are just partners!" Yue Nanchen whispered, and as he spoke, he put the valuable things into the bag he brought. His vision was absolutely accurate, and everything he bought was top-notch.
"Then let's make it clear first, how do we divide the spoils?" Marking a clear price has always been Lan Shuiyao's way of doing things.
"Five-five!" Yue Nanchen grinned, feeling that teasing Lan Shuiyao like this was very fun.
"No, I came here first, so naturally it's 20-80. I'll take 80 and you'll take 20. You're just assisting at best!" With her hands clasped in front of her chest, Lan Shuiyao looked like a shrewd and stingy person who was bargaining.
Holding back his laughter, Yue Nanchen frowned and pretended to give in reluctantly, "Then let's split it 40-60, and I'll give you 10%!"
"No, 28!" Lan Shuiyao refused to give in, waiting for Yue Nanchen to say 37.
"In that case, then we don't need to cooperate. Now I will shout, catch the thief!" Yue Nanchen imitated her and clasped his hands together.
In front of the chest, looking nonchalant.
“You…” He gritted his teeth in hatred, “Okay, Sanqi, if you don’t agree, then just shout. Anyway, what I’ve got is enough for me!”
Finally unable to hold back, Yue Nanchen laughed softly and said, "Okay, deal!"
So the two of them stretched out their hands at the same time and hit it off immediately.
Lan Shuiyao finally understood the meaning of the phrase "strength in numbers"; after they hit it off, Yue Nanchen swept almost the entire Emperor Mi's bedroom.
Moreover, there was someone on the glazed roof to meet them. Finally, Lan Shuiyao whispered, "We are sharing between two of us. I will not be responsible for paying the wages for your people!"
Yue Nanchen chuckled. Lan Shuiyao, who was so smart, had completely changed from her cold and icy appearance to a very cute one. He stretched out his arm, put it on her body, and said generously, "Don't worry, I'm not short of money. I just want to vent my anger. The 30% I want is for my brothers to drink!"
"With so much money to spend on drinking, I'll get you drunk to death!" Lan Shuiyao pushed Yue Nanchen away coldly and said gritting her teeth.
Yue Nanchen smiled secretly, he really wanted to go up to her and take off her mask to see how petty and gritting her teeth she was.
"Okay, that's almost it. I should go back as well, otherwise it will arouse suspicion. Don't worry, you won't lose anything. We'll divide the loot at the ruined temple outside the city tomorrow night!" After saying that, Yue Nanchen whistled happily and left.
Frowning slightly, looking at the man's arrogant back, Lan Shuiyao seemed to be thinking, could it be that Yue Nanchen really wanted to take revenge on Mi Di and Liu Yirou?
Looking at the empty Midi Palace, and then sneaking outside the palace to see the guards whose necks were cut, Lan Shuiyao felt
The doubts are growing.
Why did Yue Nanchen do this? It was obvious that he was helping her, but why?
"Where have you been?" Standing outside the hall, Yue Nanchen, dressed in gorgeous black clothes with a white shirt on the outside, smiled faintly as he looked at Shui Yao who was walking slowly towards him.
"It's stuffy inside, come out for a walk! What? Are you going back?" Shui Yao carefully studied his smile, a cold light flashing in her charming eyes.
"Yeah, this wedding is really boring and tiring, why not go back early!" Yue Nanchen smiled calmly, and soon the sedan chair came over. He went straight up, then pulled the curtain and looked at Shui Yao, "What? You don't want to leave?"
Shui Yao was startled, and when she got into the sedan chair, her little hand was still held in his.
The atmosphere in the sedan was a bit weird. Shui Yao secretly observed Yue Nanchen's expression from beginning to end, but he just looked at the night scene outside indifferently.
"Nanhan's marriage to A Luo may not necessarily mean happiness, but this is the path she has chosen, and she has to bear the consequences herself!" Suddenly, Yue Nanchen spoke in a low voice, her worry barely concealed in her voice.
Shui Yao was stunned. She didn't expect Yue Nanchen to say this to her. Is this what he really thinks? He seems to be indifferent to Nanhan on weekdays, but she didn't expect him to think so much about her!
"Yao'er, once things here are settled, I will go with you to find Qizhan Linglong. The blood oath on you must be resolved!" Yue Nanchen whispered, with even stronger worry in his voice.
"Didn't you tell me to believe in A'Luo? Why, have you changed your mind?" Shui Yao smiled faintly and glanced at him evilly.
"No, I believe A Luo will never hurt you, but..." Yue Nanchen was silent, hoping that this was just his misjudgment!
