Now is the right time?
Xi Menghan tilted his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly realized.
She is not a young lady who knows nothing about the world. On the contrary, she is actually very concerned about all the developments in the capital. She is not an ordinary woman. She is a female general who has actually led troops in war, and she will also pay attention to the situation in the court.
She also knew what happened in the main hall in the past two days, and everything became clear once she contacted them.
Xia Luotong, Princess An, could no longer "hide" in the palace and had to come to the stage and into everyone's sight.
So now is the time to tell her.
but……
Xi Menghan turned to look at Si Hanyan, who was smiling happily, and puffed his cheeks angrily: "Why did Hanyan know about this first!"
"She! After the court the day before yesterday, the Queen Mother summoned me and asked me to show my face to her. The Queen Mother knew that I played with you on weekdays, so she called Han Yan to accompany me. ." Xia Luotong looked at Xi Menghan's unwilling look and couldn't help but laugh.
"But don't worry, Han Yan's situation at that time was not much better than yours. He was also stunned and stunned!" Xia Luotong added smoothly, exposing Si Hanyan who was smiling happily.
"Oh~~!" Xi Menghan suddenly relaxed his eyebrows and spoke in a long voice. He lost his depressed look just now and looked at Si Hanyan with a teasing look in his eyes.
"Ahem!" Si Hanyan couldn't help but his expression froze, and he paused awkwardly and said, "Atong! Why did you expose me? Just pretend it didn't happen?"
"Of course not!" Xi Menghan said first, "Little girl! Your thoughts are very dangerous! You dare to use this heroine as a backer! You are getting worse and worse! You must have learned it from A Tong!"
Xi Menghan could guess Si Hanyan's little thoughts with just a moment's thought, but wasn't it because he was frightened and had to make amends with her?
Xia Luotong was helpless for a while, but she didn't expect that the matter would turn back to her. Si Hanyan was just releasing his natural instincts, but it had nothing to do with her. How could she have the guts to teach the Queen Mother's precious grandniece a bad way?
The three of them laughed and laughed, and their affectionate appearance made Mrs. Xi, who was watching them from the side, smile and her eyes were filled with relief.
Her family, Menghan, finally made friends in the capital.
Although Xi Menghan didn't say anything after returning to Beijing for such a long time, Mrs. Xi knew that she was lonely. In this capital where most people wore masks, the ladies from various families didn't think highly of Xi Menghan. She is a "vulgar" woman, and Xi Menghan herself doesn't want to, so she has been walking alone, even alone.
But now it's better, now she is no longer alone.
Looking at Xi Menghan with a smile on his face, such a real and cheerful look, Mrs. Xi found that all this happened only after Xia Luotong appeared. She had not seen it for a long time.
In fact, it's not just Xi Menghan, but Si Hanyan is also like this?
It was precisely because she noticed Si Hanyan's change that the Queen Mother agreed to her being friends with an "unidentified" girl.
Seeing the three girls of the same age chatting animatedly in front of her, Mrs. Xi finally stood up with a smile and left the flower hall early, leaving space for them.
After Mrs. Xi left, Xi Menghan dismissed the servants around her, leaving the three of them alone.
At this time, she couldn't help but ask: "How are you doing in Prince An's mansion now? Prince An looks cold-blooded and indifferent, but is he giving you a hard time?"
"Don't worry, I'm living a good life in the palace. Although Prince An has a cold temper, he doesn't make things difficult for me, and my situation is getting better and better now." Xia Luotong knew that they would definitely ask him, so he smiled He said comfortingly.
Although she said it simply, Xi Menghan and Si Hanyan both knew that it would not be easy.
Speaking of this, Si Hanyan remembered a detail he had just noticed when he was at Prince An's Mansion: "A Tong, you don't live in the main house?"
Si Hanyan had just noticed that Xia Luotong's direction when entering the front hall was obviously not from the main house, but she also said that she had just gotten up and had breakfast, and she did not come here for a walk. It means she doesn't actually live in the main house.
Si Hanyan's words successfully caught Xi Menghan's attention, and they both looked at Xia Luotong, wanting to hear what she had to say.
She is a serious Princess An, the official wife of Prince An, but although she is in the main courtyard, she does not live in the main house. This is unreasonable. First of all, it illustrates her status and treatment in the palace.
Xia Luotong was not surprised that Si Hanyan would notice this. Although the former looked delicate and gentle, she was actually delicate and alert, and she was not the silly sweet lady that outsiders thought she was.
She did not hide it from them anymore and said frankly: "I do not live in the main house, and Prince An and I are not actually a real couple. We are innocent."
She couldn't help but feel funny when she said these words, and she did laugh, but Xi Menghan and Si Hanyan obviously couldn't laugh anymore.
"How could this happen? Even if you don't win his heart again, it is still a royal wedding. You can marry the princess who walked in in a big sedan chair, but it turned out to be... in name only?!" No matter how careless Xi Menghan is, he has no nerve to talk about the bridal chamber flowers and candles. A few words can only be vaguely hinted at, but everyone can understand it anyway.
"There is nothing wrong with this. In fact, this is the common intention of both of us. I have an agreement with Prince An. When the time is right, he will find an opportunity for me to leave the palace. From now on, we will go our separate ways." Xia Luotong He smiled so freely that he didn't even care whether he would get the reputation of being divorced because of it.
For her, for the sake of freedom, everything can be thrown away. It is not the marriage she expected, and she is not willing to ruin her whole life.
"You actually have such an agreement?!"
Xi Menghan and Si Hanyan were both shocked, but then they felt relieved when they saw the smile on Xia Luotong's face. Maybe this is what she expected and needed. Everyone has their own pursuits and things they care about. Since she is willing, then they have nothing to worry about.
Compared to ordinary ladies from aristocratic families, the two of them actually think more freely and are more able to accept some special situations.
Because Xi Menghan has been in the military camp all year round, her concept is quite different from that of ordinary ladies from aristocratic families. As for the Si family in the northwest where Si Hanyan lives, the local customs are more open than those in the Central Plains, and it is common for widows to remarry. things, so I don’t pay much attention to these things either.
As long as Xia Luotong is happy and happy, everything else is not that important.
