Before she learned that Huo Zhun and Sun Shenyi were old acquaintances, she had always dreamed of leaving Prince Wei's Mansion and reuniting with Hong Ming. But now that she has decided to stay in Prince Wei's Mansion forever for her brother, Hong Ming must let go even if she doesn't want to. open.
What's more, now that the Lu and Pei families have broken up, and he has the love of Princess Chenghui, the future will be bright and bright, and her existence will only be a stain on him.
Thinking like this, Pei Ruolan's eyes turned slightly red and her heart felt like a knife. It took her a long time to get up.
Sang Yun heard the commotion and came in from outside to wait on her. When he saw Pei Ruolan's slightly swollen almond eyes and red nose, he sighed in his heart, and then said softly, "I'll wait for you to cleanse your face."
After wiping her face, Sang Yun helped Pei Ruolan put on some makeup to cover up the traces of crying on her face.
At this time, new Jinshi scholars had entered the house, and Pei Ruolan clearly heard those people saluting Huo Zhun and saying hello, attentively and thoughtfully.
"Breakfast has been prepared, girl, do you want to use it now?" Sang Yun reminded Pei Ruolan in a low voice when he saw that Pei Ruolan's attention was outside.
Pei Ruolan glanced at her and nodded gently.
When she took her first mouthful of porridge, a familiar voice suddenly came to her ears, "Student Lu Hongming has met the prince."
The next moment, a hot tear fell into the porridge bowl. Seeing this, Sang Yun handed Pei Ruolan a handkerchief, and then quietly retreated out.
The handkerchief smelled of ambergris, and Pei Ruolan was startled, knowing that Sang Yun was reminding her.
She gently wiped away her tears and listened to Huo Brigadier introduce Lu Hongming to Princess Chenghui.
Princess Chenghui showed great interest in Lu Hongming, asking about his answers to the royal examination, his place of origin, and the population of his family.
Not to mention Lu Hongming, all the Jinshi present were aware of Princess Chenghui's thoughts, which were somewhat lively, and began to make peace with her.
Lu Hongming was not good at dealing with such situations. He was mostly silent and rarely responded. In the end, Princess Chenghui scolded everyone and came to his rescue.
Those who can pass the Jinshi examination are all smart people, and the atmosphere at the banquet becomes more and more harmonious.
I don’t know how much time had passed before a sarcastic voice suddenly sounded, "I heard that King Wei recently got a new favorite, and he loves her very much. I guess that woman must be an expert in both sex and art. If I am so happy today, why not call her out to sing a song and dance?" , to add to the fun.”
Huo Zhun's face immediately darkened, he looked at Song Minzhi coldly, and told Du Lin, "Song No. 2 is drunk. Take him down to sober up."
Du Lin responded, walked towards Song Mianzhi, bowed and made a gesture of invitation, "Song No. 2, please!"
Hearing this, Song Minzhi put down the wine cup in his hand and looked at Huo Zhun coldly with his bloodshot eyes, "The prince protects her without explanation, but today I want to see who hooked Hu Meizi." The prince is so lingering that he can even forget the birthday of his fiancée!" After that, he stood up unsteadily and went straight to the main room.
When Huo Zhun saw that he was drinking like crazy, his face became more and more ugly, and he glanced at Du Lin. Du Lin wanted to pull Song Minzhi away by force, but he flexibly broke away and swayed towards the main room while saying, " I’m going to pull that bitch out today and let everyone take a good look at it.”
In the bedroom, Pei Ruolan watched Song Mianzhi getting closer and closer to the main room, her face turned pale. She could commit herself to Huo Zhun to heal her brother's legs and follow him without any name or status, even for the rest of her life, but she was afraid of being dragged away. Go under the sun and be judged like a parade. In that case, not only would she lose all dignity, but the Pei family would never be able to hold their head high.
Just as she was anxious, Sang Yun suddenly walked in from outside and said to her with a serious expression, "The girl's identity cannot be discovered. You and the slave will change your clothes and go to the clean room to hide."
In desperation, Pei Ruolan could only agree.
As soon as the two of them changed their clothes and separated, Song Mianzhi rushed in from outside. He looked at Sang Yun, who had his back turned to him, and sneered, "You are the one who fascinated King Wei so much?" As he said that, he grabbed her breasts. The shoulder turned the person around.
"Is it you?" Seeing that it was Sang Yun, Song Mianzhi was shocked, and then shook his head and said, "No, it can't be you. You must be loyal to the Lord and hide that bitch!" After saying that, he went to bed. He started rummaging around in the room, looking like he was going to turn the bedroom upside down.
"Haven't you made enough trouble?" Huo Zhun saw how unwilling he was and grabbed his shoulders hard.
Song Mianzhi turned around and glared at him, "Yesterday was my sister's birthday, but you only cared about your new favorite and forgot about her. Did you know that she drank heavily all night and almost fell into the lotus pond and was lost when she returned to her room? life!"
Huo Zhun did not know these things, but this was not the reason for Song Mianzhi to act wild in the Wei Palace.
He clasped the hand on his shoulder with force again, lifted and slapped him, and threw him out of the bedroom. Song Minzhi knelt down on one knee when he landed. Before he could continue to distinguish with Huo Zhun, he heard him saying in a cold voice, "Will The second-placed candidate in the Song Dynasty will be sent back to the Xinyang Marquis Mansion. Without my permission, he will not be allowed to step into the Prince Wei Mansion again in the future."
Du Lin knew that his master was really angry. He led his guards inside, blocked Song Mianzhi's mouth and dragged him away.
After Song Mianzhi was dragged away, the entire main room became quiet. Huo Zhun looked around the bedroom and walked towards the clean room.
Opening the door of the clean room and looking in, he saw Pei Ruolan hiding behind the screen. Her face was full of fear and worry. Huo Zhun's heart suddenly tightened. He took a few steps forward and took her into his arms, gently caressing her. On the back of her head, she said in a mute voice, "Don't worry, I am here."
Pei Ruolan stretched out her hand, slowly wrapped it around his waist, and closed her eyes. No matter what the cause was, the moment he threw Song Mianzhi out, she was very grateful that he did not expose her to everyone and saved her self-esteem and the Pei family's reputation for generations.
Huo Zhun noticed Pei Ruolan's initiative, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and patted her back comfortingly before leading her out.
After settling her down, he went out and continued to entertain the Jinshi.
Because of Princess Chenghui, Lu Hongming sat under Huo Zhun. The distance between the two was only three feet. After Huo Zhun left and came back, he clearly felt a familiar smell on him. That was The taste of Ruolan.
