Chen Yan shrugged and answered innocently.
"have no idea."
"..."
Meng Qingluan glanced at him suspiciously before looking away.
The two walked side by side to the palace. Along the way, Meng Qingluan received many surprised glances, and many people even secretly observed her.
Just as the two reached the palace gate, a figure suddenly rushed towards them.
Shen Yan quickly pulled Meng Qingluan back, preventing her from bumping into the person who had just arrived.
Before Meng Qingluan could even look up and see who it was, Shen Yan had already pulled her hand and led her back, creating distance between them.
"Xiangxiang, you look really good today! You could barely be considered as good-looking as me."
A sleazy, obnoxious voice came through.
have to!
Meng Qingluan didn't need to look up. She could tell who it was just from that outrageously vulgar string of words.
She couldn't be bothered to even give him a glance.
The couple ignored him and prepared to walk around him into the main hall.
Li Zhanlan noticed their movements and, like a leech, followed their footsteps.
"Good...good people don't block the way."
Meng Qingluan was about to curse Li Zhanlan when she remembered that she was in the palace and might be overheard by someone with ulterior motives who could cut off her head.
She abruptly changed the subject, cleverly replacing the object of her statement.
"Everyone in the world says I am the most useless prince."
Therefore, the word "good person" doesn't apply to him; he's just going to block the way.
Meng Qingluan was speechless at his self-righteous and dissolute manner.
What can I do?
Outside, she could lie on the ground and compete with him to see who was more shameless; in the palace, in front of everyone.
She can't afford to lose face like that.
Chen Yan remained expressionless.
"roll."
"..."
Meng Qingluan's eyes widened, and she subconsciously turned her head to look at the reactions of the people around her.
Several officials who were very close by glanced at it, then looked away without any surprise.
My dear mother!
Shen Yan was utterly lawless in the palace; no wonder officials of lower rank dared not flatter him and would avoid him altogether.
Li Zhanlan looked up at him, the cheeky words stuck in her throat, and she chuckled.
"Lord Shen, what kind of outfit is this? Are you here to perform a dance for my father too? Do you want to be my concubine?"
"..."
Upon hearing his words, Meng Qingluan subconsciously turned her gaze to the top of Shen Yan's head.
really.
The hairpin on his head was swaying back and forth, complementing his cold expression and solemn attire.
It seemed so...out of place, yet somehow harmonious with his face.
No wonder they kept turning their heads to look at them all the way; even though the officials didn't dare to look, they still kept turning their heads to look.
The answer will be found within three steps.
Meng Qingluan was on the verge of tears, and was just about to try to explain and make amends for Shen Yan.
Shen Yan reached out and took her hand, and the two intertwined their fingers in front of Li Zhanlan.
He then raised their clasped hands, beaming with pride.
"Husbands and wives wearing the same crown, you who have never been married would never understand, I understand you don't understand the fun between husband and wife."
"..."
Shen Yan's words made Li Zhanlan's smile freeze.
It's just a broken hairpin, why show it off?
It's obvious.
In this PK, Shen Yan won decisively with just one sentence.
Why don't you go inside?
Before the two could begin a new round of verbal sparring, a questioning voice came from behind them.
The three of them turned their gaze toward the newcomer.
Li Zhanjue saw their tightly clasped hands and similar hairpins on their heads, and clenched his fists.
He held back, looked at Li Zhanlan standing in the doorway, and reprimanded him unhappily.
"What kind of behavior is it for a prince to stand here blocking the door? Hurry up and go inside."
"oh."
Li Zhanlan gave an indifferent reply, a cold smile playing on his lips.
What are you pretending for?
