"Of course I know the situation, but I have to think about the source of so much food. After all, such a huge amount is not something that anyone can easily provide. But I have already made plans for this matter, so you don't need to worry. Also, from now on, don't call me 'host' anymore. Just call me master like everyone else."

Lan Wangshu gave Lai Qian'er these instructions with a serious and solemn expression, because she was worried that the title "host" was too direct and conspicuous, and might make others realize that there was some kind of connection between him and the system.

"Master Host, how can I compare myself with them? How about I call you 'Little Blue'?"

Lan Wangshu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard that. He looked up at Lai Qian'er, but considering that Lai Qian'er's identity was extraordinary, he finally decided to act according to his temperament and nodded slightly to show his agreement.

"That's great! Xiao Lanlan, from now on I will be Xiao Qianqian~"

Lan Wangshu did not respond, but remained silent, quietly gazing at the charming scenery outside the window. Such a wonderful scenery and such a comfortable climate really should not be disturbed by anger. She secretly warned herself: Don't get angry, getting angry hurts your body and makes you age quickly.

"Be normal."

"Okay, little Lanlan." Lai Qian'er raised his lips slightly, revealing a row of white and neat teeth. His smile was as bright and dazzling as the warm spring sun, making people feel relaxed. Lan Wangshu glanced at him indifferently, feeling a little helpless, but he still didn't want to get too entangled with him.

Lan Wangshu took the secret letter from Hua Qiming and said nothing. He just quietly lit the paper and burned it to ashes. No one knew what secrets were written on the paper.

At this moment, the morning light had not yet broken, and the sky was still dark. It looked to be around the hour of Yin. Lan Wangshu woke up on time as usual.

She turned her body slightly, but suddenly felt something strange beside her. When she looked closely, she found a man lying there quietly!

Lan Wangshu was startled, and almost instinctively kicked the man off the bed. Then he quickly pulled the quilt over himself, wrapped himself tightly, lowered his head and carefully checked his pajamas, and only felt relieved after confirming that he was fine.

"Xiao Lanlan, you're really cruel!" Lai Qian'er struggled to get up from the ground in a panic, his face full of grievance, which made Lan Wangshu feel creepy. This guy was really hard to figure out, and he didn't know what he was up to.

"Behave yourself!" Lan Wangshu scolded unhappily.

Lan Wangshu took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. The memory in her mind gradually became clearer, and she finally remembered the situation she was in. She glared at Lai Qian'er fiercely, secretly regretting that she had lost her composure like this.

The man looked innocent, and he approached Lan Wangshu cautiously, picking up the clothes beside him. "Master, are you okay?" he asked with concern.

At this time, Qingye was standing quietly at the door. With her keen hearing, she had already heard everything that happened in the house clearly, but her face did not show too much surprise, as if this kind of thing was normal.

Qingye hesitated for a moment, and finally knocked on the door gently and asked, "Do you need me to go in and help Miss Lan Wangshu with her dressing up? After all, it's time to wash and dress up." However, the echo from the house caught her off guard.

"Don't bother Sister Qingye. I'll take care of her clothes from now on." Lai Qian'er spoke in a relaxed and natural tone, as if he had known Lan Wangshu for a long time. Hearing this, Lan Wangshu's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, as if asking, "How dare you say that?"

Lan Wangshu frowned and questioned Lai Qian'er in a low and dignified voice: "Where did you get such courage?" Sometimes, she couldn't help but wonder if the person in front of her was just a different skin, and his inner self had long been occupied by another soul. Why the difference between the previous and the next actions was so great, it was really puzzling.

"Xiao Lanlan, it would not be appropriate if others saw us like this. Besides, how could I not be worthy of your trust?"

Lai Qian'er's originally charming face was now filled with sorrow. The corners of her eyes, which should have been raised, drooped slightly, staring straight at Lan Wangshu, making her dazed for a moment, secretly sighing in her heart that this man did have some tricks.

"Forget it, don't waste time. After the morning court session today, I will be ordered to go on a diplomatic mission to another country."

"Just relax, I have everything arranged."

After that, Lai Qianer led Lan Wangshu into the bathroom. After a quick wash, he pulled the still sleepy girl to sit in front of the dressing table. She took out a variety of skin care products and applied and fiddled with them one by one in an orderly manner. Lan Wangshu glanced at them absentmindedly and felt that there was nothing unusual.

Why should she go through all that trouble when someone else could take care of it? After all, who doesn't like to be pampered?

Lai Qian'er's movements were very gentle, like an artist who was carefully carving a work. Lan Wangshu stared at the man in the mirror, and felt more and more strange. It all seemed too smooth, as if it had been rehearsed countless times.

Thinking back to the hairy skin when he first saw Lai Qian as a child, he realized that it had changed so much now. Although Lan Wangshu said nothing on the surface, he was full of doubts and puzzles deep in his heart.

"Okay."

Lai Qian'er's hands fluttered up and down like butterflies, busy all the time. He stared at the bronze mirror in front of him with full concentration, carefully observing the face of the person in the mirror, and then imitated Lan Wangshu's usual makeup, skillfully waving the brush in his hand, and in a light touch, he outlined the already quite beautiful facial features to be more angular, tough and handsome, while also revealing a kind of aloof temperament that people dare not easily provoke.

Lan Wangshu slowly stood up from her seat, and Lai Qian'er immediately became very attentive. He gently and quickly put on a gorgeous inner garment made of black dark-patterned brocade for her. This inner garment perfectly fits Lan Wangshu's slender figure, making her figure more graceful and elegant. Then, he carefully put on the bright and eye-catching, exquisitely crafted vermilion official uniform for her. The official uniform is embroidered with exquisite patterns and patterns, which looks solemn and majestic. Finally, Lai Qian'er skillfully rolled up Lan Wangshu's long black and shiny hair that fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, and fixed it with a small and exquisite jade hairpin, and then steadily put on a unique and majestic official hat for her. At this point, Lan Wangshu's entire dress was complete.

Lan Wangshu looked at himself in the mirror and saw that the woman in the mirror had beautiful eyebrows, white teeth, willow waist, graceful figure, skin as white as cream, and a face as beautiful as a peach. She was wearing a dignified and elegant yet bright and beautiful dress. She was so beautiful that she was stunning! Her eyes were full of joy and satisfaction. Lai Qianer squinted his eyes. Although he couldn't see what was hidden in his eyes, he could clearly feel an irrepressible joy emanating from him.

"I'm afraid the court will not be peaceful today. You must always remember to be careful with your words and actions!" Lan Wangshu warned in a serious tone.

Lai Qian'er carefully straightened Lan Wangshu's collar and gently reminded him: "Be careful. If you encounter danger, you must protect yourself first..." His voice was low and gentle, as if it carried a reassuring power.

Lan Wangshu paused for a moment, she slowly raised her eyes and looked at Lai Qian'er with complicated eyes. The man in front of her looked serious, and didn't seem to notice anything wrong with her behavior. He just smiled and looked at her, his eyes full of concern and doting.

The girl blinked her eyes, secretly surprised. Strange, really too strange! Lai Qian'er at this moment was very different from the usual system image that always depended on her and obeyed her orders. His behavior made Lan Wangshu feel confused, but he didn't know how to express this strange feeling.

She hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently, and turned to walk towards the door. Lai Qianer followed her silently and came to the carriage together.

"Don't follow me. Wait for me to come back." Lan Wangshu stepped onto the carriage, lowered the curtain, and said to Lai Qian'er who was outside the carriage.

Lai Qianer stood there quietly, watching the carriage go farther and farther away. His figure looked particularly lonely in the sunlight, and there was a trace of barely perceptible worry in his eyes.

Qingye, who was standing by, took in all the subtle atmosphere between the two and could not help but feel suspicious. "Master, please forgive me for being so blunt, but this Mr. Lai Qianer always gives people a weird feeling. Isn't it a bit too reckless for you to go there this time? And from what I see, this person doesn't seem to be a good person..."

In Qingye's eyes, Lai Qian'er is neither an evil creature nor an ordinary person. His appearance and the unusual communication between him and Lan Wangshu made Qingye alert. However, facing Qingye's questioning, Lan Wangshu simply remained silent. Perhaps even she herself could not explain what kind of feelings and trust she had towards Lai Qian'er.

Her mind was exceptionally clear, as if everything in the world was running in an orderly manner in her mind. The harsh experience she had endured over the years had made her realize that there was nothing in this world that could be obtained without paying a price; those items that seemed to be obtained without any conditions and easily were mostly just illusions and impermanence.

Qingye was quite worried about the relationship between Lan Wangshu and Lai Qian'er. She was keenly aware that the relationship between the two was not simply a master-servant relationship, but more like a tacit partnership. For example, this morning, Lai Qian'er made a decision without Lan Wangshu's approval.

Whether it is reliable is not the most important issue. The real key is whether you can grasp the whole situation. This matter is indeed quite complicated and tricky. It seems to be a little out of control at present, but don't worry, everything is still under control. I know very well what to do.

Qingye was not a talkative person, so he remained silent after hearing these words.

Lan Wangshu was silently thinking about various possible situations in his mind. He was so focused that he unknowingly arrived at the foot of the imperial city.

The news that she was about to be sent as an envoy to the Kingdom of Dai Viet had not been spread, but there was no guarantee that some spies would not have discovered the news. So today in the court, I was afraid that someone would deliberately make trouble for her, and she had to cheer up to deal with it.

"Commander Li, you look so good today!"

"No, no, you are the same, Lord Shangshu. You still look so energetic and vigorous!"

Lan Wangshu smiled slightly to show politeness, but his eyes did not reveal any emotion. If you looked closely, you could even detect a hint of coldness in them.

"You... Hehe, Commander Li really loves to joke."

The Minister of Personnel was suddenly speechless, but his self-control developed over the years prevented him from losing his composure in front of others. After all, he was the head of one of the five major families.

"I never joke."

Lan Wangshu smiled, turned around lightly and left leisurely, leaving the Minister of Personnel standing there alone, gritting his teeth in anger.

Hua Qiming, who was on the high platform, witnessed the whole process. Due to the distance, he could not hear the conversation between the two people clearly, but through their expressions, he could roughly guess what was going on.

He couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, thinking: Lan Wangshu is a person who really likes to cause trouble for herself. Isn't she afraid that others will take the opportunity to cause trouble for her?
