Chapter 2029: Deep Palace Sake and Peach Blossom Drunkenness (3)
After the banquet, the queen kept Lan Lingqian in the palace for a few days.
She directly exposed Lan Lingqian's thoughts and told her that she could help her.
However, if Lan Lingqian becomes the Crown Princess in the future, she must not forget her kindness.
For Feng Qianche, Lan Lingqian agreed.
In addition to the emperor, there are three forces in the Fengchao Kingdom: the grand scholar Luo Sen, the minister of household affairs Rong Lin and the prince Feng Qianche.
So if Feng Qianche's position as crown prince is not threatened, the Luo Rong family cannot join forces.
The queen told her that if she could estrange the relationship between the Luo Rong family for Feng Qianche, she would definitely gain the gratitude and pity of His Highness the Crown Prince.
She believed it.
However, it is not easy to create a gap between the Luo and Rong families who have a deep friendship.
Until the year when Luo Qingchen of Luo Mansion was born. The Luo Rong family planned to marry, on the one hand to strengthen their power, and on the other hand to know the character of each other's children.
The elders of both families believed that Rong Muling and Luo Qingchen would be happy together.
The original owner thought so too.
When the original owner was still young, he met Rong Muling several times. The two families are family friends, so naturally they are relatively close.
She probably didn't fall in love with Rong Muling at first sight, but she went from admiring Lan Lingqian to caring about Rong Muling.
Perhaps it was because Rong Muling was so kind to Lan Lingqian. When the two families were eating, he would always scoop out the chopped green onion in the soup for Lan Lingqian, peel the shrimp shells for her, and place her favorite snacks in front of her.
She envied Lan Lingqian, and especially admired the young man Rong Muling. When she was in her third year, she once asked her mother why Rong Muling didn't marry Lan Lingqian.
While her mother was combing three thousand black hairs for her, she said, "Because she is his sister."
The original owner believed what her mother said, and she seemed to like Rong Muling even more at this moment. Because he can be so kind to his sister, he will definitely be better to his wife.
That night, the original owner was so happy that he stayed up all night. The mother looked a little worried when she saw her daughter looking so happy.
In fact, she lied to her own daughter. The reason why Rong Muling did not marry Lan Lingqian was not because Lan Lingqian was his sister, but because Lan Lingqian rejected his friendship.
Rong Muling couldn't find the one he loved, so in order to consolidate the power of the Rong family in the court, he had no choice but to marry the legitimate daughter of the Luo family.
On that day, the entire Rong Mansion was hung with red silk, and the sound of celebration spread throughout Chang'an City. She sat nervously in the red sedan, covered with a scarf, and her heart was full of joy.
But this joyful time was too short-lived. On their wedding night, Rong Muling didn't even step through the door.
Instead, he was in the study, hungover, and in a daze he called out another woman's name - Lan Lingqian.
For him, Lan Lingqian is special. He will never forget the stubborn eyes she raised at the door of the brothel that day.
She is different from other women. She is not a lady, nor is she weak. She always had a kind of stubbornness in her bones that kept attracting him.
He always thought that she would be his wife when he grew up. Little did he know, she told her that she already had someone else in her heart.
"Who is that?" he asked.
"People from the palace," she answered.
He didn't ask any more, because when he looked into her eyes, he knew what she said was true.
She has been fond of writing poems since she was a child, and her words contain thoughts of longing. At that time, he vaguely felt that there was someone living in her heart, but he never thought that that person was actually someone from the palace.
