On the same day, Nangong LAN returned to the prince's house and smashed all the things that could be smashed in the room angrily.
He refused, he was unwilling.
"Nangong Yan!" Nangong LAN roared. Why do you always want to block my way? You already have Ji Qingxue. Why do you want to rob me of the throne again? I don't believe all the good things in the world will be occupied by you alone.
Nangong Lan thought about it, cleaned it up and went out. He went straight to Huo mansion.
Huo Ting was once the prime minister. He was no longer an official in the court, but his prestige still exists. If you can invite him out of the mountain, you must be like a tiger.
He can't wait for such a long time. He can do such a thing for the first time, but he may not be able to do it for the second time.
Nangong Lan's eyes are full of calculation and sinister color. Father, don't blame me. If you want to blame me, you only blame you for making me crown prince but trying to take it away. I'll let you see if I can keep the crown prince.
Huo Fu.
Huo Ting knew that Nangong Lan was coming, and immediately came out to meet him in person: "the prince is coming. I'm not far from welcoming you. It's really impolite."
Nangong LAN hurriedly said, "Huo Chengcheng is polite. You are an elder. You bring me to see you anyway."
This sentence lowered Nangong Lan's identity to a very low level, and greatly raised Huo Ting's position, which greatly satisfied his vanity.
They helped each other into the inner hall. Huoting asked his servant to make him a pot of good tea.
Nangong LAN tasted it and said, "if you talk about tea in Kyoto, I'm afraid no one can match the tea in Huo's hometown. It's better than the tea I drink in my father's palace."
Huo Ting said with a smile, "where, it's just thick branches and thin leaves picked at random in the countryside. It's still the crown prince's praise."
Nangong Lan's eyes flash, thick branches and thin leaves? This is obviously a good stream tea. It's good to take only the first delicate leaf that has grown since spring. It's good if a whole tea field can produce a kilogram, and the manufacturing process is extremely complex.
Such precious tea rarely appeared in his father's palace, but he, an old man who resigned, had this kind of tea, and thought it was a very common thing, which must have been sent by others. Sure enough, the body is away from the court and the heart is inseparable.
Huo ting and his greetings were almost the same. Huo Ting went straight to the theme: "the crown prince is willing to come to my Huo house today. I don't know what's the matter?"
Nangong LAN immediately put down the teacup in her hand: "since Huo Laodu asked, I won't hide it. This time I came to ask Huo Laodu to go out of the mountain to help me."
Huo Ting's cloudy eyes flashed a trace of surprise. In recent years, many people have come to ask him for help. After all, although he is not in the court, his past relationship is still there.
When Nangong LAN came, he already had a number in his heart, but he didn't expect that he would talk about it openly.
"Does the prince know what he's talking about?" huoting said slowly after taking a sip of tea.
Nangong LAN nodded and said very solemnly, "what am I talking about? I understand, and you know. Does Huo laoken promise me this?"
Huo Ting stroked his beard: "it depends on what price the crown prince is willing to offer?"
For this reason, they don't have to hide anything.
Nangong LAN directly asked, "as far as I know, Mr. Huo has been recuperating at home for many years. Doesn't Mr. Huo want to re-enter the position above 10000 people under that person?"
He was forced to resign and go home to enjoy his life. After Nangong Xuan ascended the throne, he was afraid that the Huo family would become a climate and make great achievements, so he tried his best to become his prime minister.
Nangong LAN knows that in this world, in addition to attractive money, it is power, but it is not so easy to let go after tasting the taste of holding power. Moreover, huoting is not like a person who is willing to be ordinary.
In fact, Huo Ting has a heart. He has been silent for many years. He hasn't been happy all day. He always wants to climb that position again and shine on the lintel.
"But the prince, after all, this is not a small matter. It can't be done well, but it's a great crime for the nine families. Can the prince allow me to think for a few days?"
"OK, Mr. Huo can consider it for a few days, but I hope you can give me an answer as soon as possible."
In any case, Huo Ting didn't refuse directly. There is always hope. Whether he can be shamed into that position before the snow depends on this key game.
When Nangong LAN got up and was about to leave, huoting suddenly said, "prince, even if I have to think about it for a few days, you should always show some sincerity first."
Nangong Lan thought and said, "what kind of sincerity do you want?"
Huo Ting said faintly, "I want... Ji Qingling."
After hearing what Huo Ting said, Nangong LAN couldn't help scolding in her heart: she's really an old coyote. She's so old that she still wants to play with women.
Nangong Lan said stiffly, "isn't old Huo making a big joke? Why should old Huo want someone who is already delirious? If old Huo likes it, I'll find some good girls for you..."
"Why, the crown prince doesn't want to?" Huo Ting said coldly. "Those who achieve great things don't care about small things, let alone just a woman. If you ascend the throne later, what kind of woman do you want? Now you can't even give up a woman. Does the crown Prince expect me to gamble all my life to help you?"
Nangong Lan was hesitant on his face, so huoting continued: "the prince just lent her to me for three days. I will return it after three days."
At the thought of what his father said to him and all kinds of things in the past, Nangong LAN agreed to huoting's request as soon as she was cruel.
"Well, I'll send someone to your house tomorrow."
After Nangong LAN left, huoting drank tea slowly, and the smile on his face was more obvious.
At the thought of Ji Qingling, huoting was a little excited. Men like power and women, which has nothing to do with age.
He has coveted Ji Qingling's beauty for a long time. Now Nangong LAN brings it to the door himself. He must seize this opportunity to have a good taste of Ji Qingling's ecstasy.
Nangong LAN went to see Ji Qingling when she returned to the prince's house. Ji Qingling's state has gradually improved in recent months. At least she won't yell when she sees anyone again.
Sometimes he would gently call him "Prince brother", as if everything had returned to the way they had known each other not long ago.
Ji Qingling sat in front of the bronze mirror in a plain shirt. When the figure of Nangong LAN appeared in the bronze mirror, she still showed a smile on her face.
"Brother Prince."
Ji Qingling turned around and looked at him gently. She cried sweetly, but made Nangong Yan feel more guilty.
Although there is only fish and water with her, there is no white head, but this woman is also his side imperial concubine.
... but if he doesn't agree with Huo Ting, his matter is not in huoting's consideration at all. What else can he expect.
So Nangong LAN squatted in front of Ji Qingling and asked softly, "is linger willing to do a favor for the prince's brother?"
