Chapter 540: Chu Lan confesses

Chapter 540 Chu Lan confesses

should be possible.

Now that the entire court situation is under his control, what's the difficulty in marrying someone?

It's just...after all, it's just what if, no one in this world would have known it earlier.

Chu Lan looked at the bride in front of him, and the scene of him taking off the red hijab appeared in his mind, and under the red hijab, it was Wei Qingruo's face.

She smiled at herself, and the smile overlapped with the face of Xu Heyou who was chatting and laughing with her at that time.

Those eyes are still bright and shining, as if they can speak.

On the red bed, Zuo Lingyue was covered with a red hijab and could not see anyone, but could only hear footsteps.

She waited anxiously for King Jing to come and remove her hijab.

After waiting for a long time, not only could I not hear the approaching red hijab.

On the contrary, the sound became farther and farther away, and then she heard the door opening again.

Chu Lan left the room.

When he went out, he told the person guarding the door that he had important things to deal with and would stay in the study tonight.

At night, Wei Ruozheng was returning to Prince Rui's Mansion from the east city gate.

The weather has been very cold these two days. With the consent of the court, she paid and sent people to set up a tent outside the city gate.

In order to rush for time, she has been working late these days.

And because the place where he was going in the past few days was not convenient for carriages, Wei Ruo rode a horse.

It was a cool night, and Wei Ruo was wearing a large cloak with a collar of pure white fox fur, and a fur hat sewn by her nanny herself. Her whole body was furry.

Wei Jin also dressed up as Wang Jin and stayed with her as usual. In addition, there were Xiumei and Lin Fang.

Thank you for your hard work, Princess Rui.

When entering through the city gate, the guard at the gate greeted Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo smiled and nodded.

Not long after entering the city gate, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of them and surrounded the four of them.

Then a man walked out of the darkness.

Wearing a black brocade robe embroidered with gold fish patterns, covered with a thick cloak, the inner layer of the cloak is black, and the outer layer is navy blue with the same gold pattern embroidered on it.

When he saw the other person's face clearly, Wei Ruo showed a confused look.

Chu Lan? Why is he here?

Tonight is his wedding night. What is he doing here instead of going to the bridal chamber to have candles?

It was already past the curfew time, and there was no one else on the road except for the occasional patrol from the Bingma Division, and the Bingma Division were all Chu Lan's people.

Can I invite you to have a cup of tea? Chu Lan asked Wei Ruo.

"Prince Jing, are you drunk? I am Princess Rui, your sister-in-law. You want to have tea with me in the middle of the night? This is unreasonable no matter how you calculate it, isn't it? Not to mention that tonight is your wedding night , you should go back to accompany your princess." Wei Ruo said with a cold face.

"Or do you want me to let them do it?" Chu Lan said.

Chu Lan brought dozens of people, while Wei Ruo only brought three people.

If we really want to take action, Wei Ruo has no advantage at all.

Prince Jing, do you know what you are doing? Wei Ruo asked.

He hasn't even ascended the throne yet, yet he dares to be so presumptuous?

Is he crazy?

"Just think I'm drunk." Chu Lan said, "I just want to buy you a cup of tea. I promise you that as long as you obey me, I won't hurt you, and naturally no one else will know about it tonight. Things that happened."

Wei Ruo glanced at Wei Jinyi who had put her hand on the hilt of the sword, and she felt his murderous intention.

She didn't know how high her second brother's martial arts skills were, and how one person would be able to deal with dozens of Bingma division masters, but she didn't want her second brother to take action rashly.

"Okay, I'll drink this cup of tea with you, but I'll only accept going to the pavilion next to it." Wei Ruodao. Okay. Chu Lan agreed.

Then Wei Ruo whispered to Wei Jin beside him: "Let's see what medicine he sells in his gourd first."

Wei Jin also frowned and did not answer.

Wei Ruo felt that her second brother wanted to take action more, but because it was her request, she chose to endure it for the time being.

Arrived at the pavilion, Wei Ruo got off his horse.

Chu Lan walked into the pavilion first and waited for her.

The winter nights are very cold, and the stone tables and benches in the pavilion are like ice sculptures.

Chu Lans people came forward and spread a blanket on the stool.

Wei Ruo took a look and sat down on it.

After Chu Lan sat across from him, his subordinates got a stove and tea set from somewhere.

Then a few lanterns were hung around the pavilion to illuminate the pavilion brightly.

"Prince Jing, don't bother with this. If you have anything to say, just say it directly." Wei Ruodao.

Chu Lan took his time and said while making tea: "This is winter melon tea. Try it."

Chu Lan placed a cup of brewed winter melon tea in front of Wei Ruo.

Wei Ruo didn't look at the winter melon tea in front of him, let alone reach out to take it.

Wei Ruo said coldly: "Prince Jing, what exactly do you want to tell me?"

Chu Lan did not respond immediately, but picked up his glass and drank it.

After he finished drinking, he said to Wei Ruo: "Don't be anxious. Since you said you wanted to drink this cup of tea with me, just finish it before talking."

If Wei is willing to sit down and talk, he is already taking care of the overall situation. He is not in the mood to drink tea.

Prince Jing, please be more sensible. As you and I, we dont want to sit here like this. Its best to avoid him when we see him!

"You don't need to remind me of this. I know it clearly. I just want to confirm something." Chu Lan said.

"Confirm what? Do you still doubt that I am Dr. Xu?" Wei Ruo asked.

"It's strange to say that although I didn't find any clear evidence, in my mind, you and Xu Heyou are the same person. Especially after seeing what you did in the capital in recent days, I became more and more convinced. This." Chu Lan said.

Prince Jing, there are some things that cannot be based on feelings alone, but must be based on facts.

I have always been like this, but this time, for some reason, I want to follow my heart.

"But what does this mean to you, Prince Jing? What if it is confirmed as you wish that Dr. Xu and I are the same person? As far as I know, neither I nor Dr. Xu have ever done anything to feel sorry for Jing." Is it your business, Your Majesty?" Wei Ruodao.

Thats right, none of you have ever done anything wrong to me. Not only that, you are even kind to me.

"Then why are you like this?" Wei Ruo asked.

"Why?" Chu Lan repeated, "I don't know why, but I know that I need to find the answer in you."

Speaking, Chu Lan raised his eyes and looked at Wei Ruo.

Feeling the burning gaze, Wei Ruo also raised his head, and was surprised to find that Chu Lan's eyes were full of gloom and sadness.

Chu Lan stared at Wei Ruo and continued: "Wei Qingruo, tell me, if I was the one who asked the emperor to marry you, what would you do?"

Prince Jing, you are drunk! Wei Ruodao.

Wei Qingruo, I really drank too much, so I still thought about you on my wedding night, and even hoped that you would become my princess.
