Pei Ruolan never expected that she would be placed under house arrest by King Wei.
Luo Zhi framed and bullied the officials and their families, and the laws of the Yun Dynasty seemed to be nothing in his eyes.
Seeing everything completely unfamiliar in the bedroom in front of her, she felt depressed and painful.
At this moment, I don’t know if the messenger at home has sent the news of the postponement of the wedding to the Lu family?
Hong Ming always did things carefully and properly. At this moment, he might have already changed into his wedding clothes and was waiting to go home with his groomsmen to pick up the bride.
Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu had been preparing for their happy event since the year before. The wedding invitations were sent out early. The house must have been full of guests at this time, waiting to drink the wedding wine.
Everything is ready, but who would have thought that as a bride, she would be under house arrest in the Palace of Wei Prince?
After today, I'm afraid the Lu family will become the laughing stock of the entire Shangjing...
Thinking of this, Pei Ruolan became even more sad. In just one day, it felt like she had endured more than a year.
At nightfall, Huo Zhun came back from outside under the bright moonlight.
He was handsome in purple robe and jade crown. He strolled to the table, put his hand on Pei Ruolan's shoulder very naturally, lowered his eyes and said, "I heard from my servant that you haven't had dinner yet?"
Pei Ruolan's heart was full of grievances, but she couldn't bear it. She frowned and glanced at his hand, "What on earth is the prince going to do to let us brothers and sisters go?"
Huo Zhun slowly took back his hand, and when he didn't hear her cold question, he ordered the maid to bring in the dinner, looked at the two of them coldly and said, "If you can't serve Miss Pei well, you don't have to stay in Prince Wei's Mansion. "
When the two maids heard this, they knelt down at Pei Ruolan's feet in fear, "I beg you, miss, have mercy on me. Please use some food."
Pei Ruolan clearly saw the fear and pleading in the eyes of the two people. There was no difference between them and her. They were just ants under Huo Zhun's feet. Thinking of this, a thin layer of anger appeared on her face, "Why should the prince blame others?" ?”
Huo Zhun sat down next to Pei Ruolan, flicked the hem of his python robe, looked at her, and said ruthlessly, "If you can't share my worries with me, it's useless to keep her."
The corners of the eyes of the two maids were slightly red, and they were about to cry. They looked like they were only thirteen or fourteen years old. What would happen to them if they were expelled from the palace.
Pei Ruolan couldn't help but feel soft. She sighed silently and compromised, "My lord, please don't embarrass them. I'll just use the dinner."
Huo Zhun waved his hand, and the two maids withdrew as if they had been granted amnesty.
Pei Ruolan picked up the jade chopsticks and picked up a piece of cucumber, which tasted like chewing wax and ate it.
Huo Zhun's deep eyes lingered on her fat-like face, and he swallowed softly.
Pei Ruolan noticed Huo Zhun's gaze and frowned, "What does Your Majesty see me for?"
Huo Zhun smiled secretly, picked up the tea on the table and drank it all in one gulp.
Pei Ruolan ate a few more chopsticks before stopping. After the maid removed the dishes, she looked at Huo Zhun and asked, "How long will the prince imprison me?"
Huo Zhun pondered for a moment and said, "If you care about your brother so much, I will give you a chance. Only one of you and Pei Riwen can return to the Pei family. You can choose who goes back."
Pei Ruolan never expected that Huo Zhun would throw such a difficult problem to her, and in an instant, the color drained from her face.
Before he came back, she carefully thought about what happened in the past two days. Coupled with Huo Zhun's reaction just now, she clearly realized that he didn't just want to have sex with her, but had other thoughts.
Thinking like this, she slowly raised her head and asked anxiously, "Isn't it because the prince has spent so much thought that he wants to be a long-term husband and wife with me?"
Huo Zhun and Pei Ruolan looked at each other, their dark eyes getting deeper and deeper, like a deep pool, hiding thousands of emotions. For a long time, he tapped his fingertips on the table and sneered, "We have been married for a long time, Miss Pei thinks too highly of herself." ”
"Then why does the prince insist on forcing me to stay in the palace?"
Huo Zhun glanced at her, his eyes moved from her bright red lips to her snow-white slender neck, and finally landed on the slightly open skirt, and said lazily, "But it's still a bit fresh."
After a pause, he added, "Have you thought about it? Should you go back, or Pei Riwen?"
Pei Ruolan looked away, folded her clothes, and fell into silence. Huo Zhun's thoughts were so clear that even if she walked out of Prince Wei's mansion, she might not be able to escape from his grasp.
The brother's legs must be acupuncture on time, and he and his father's disciples are all old acquaintances. If he can escape, he will definitely find a way to take her back.
Thinking like this, Pei Ruolan had an idea in mind.
