"master?"

The voice was exactly the same as in the dream. He held her shoulders and sat up, leaning on the pillow.

"Where's Xing'er? Where's Xing'er?"

She grabbed his hand that was about to be withdrawn, as if he was her last life-saving straw.

"Master, you have forgotten that the prince has sent the young prince to the palace, and Lan Xin has gone with him to take care of him."

His face could not be seen clearly in the dim candlelight in the room, and she almost thought she was still dreaming.

"Where is the prince?"

She tried her best to keep her voice steady.

"In Fufeng Garden."

He actually doesn't know.

"Ha, is he so impatient? He doesn't even need to meet me, the princess, to protect Mrs. Xu and move into the palace?"

But she has completely trusted him.

"master……"

He pretended to be embarrassed, as if he wanted to persuade her to relax.

"The prince just couldn't control his temper for a while. You can subdue him in a few days. You will definitely..."

"Stop trying to persuade me, Wanglou."

She patted his hand and gave him a relieved smile.

"I am Pei Yi, the daughter of the Pei family in the north. I don't have to rely on anyone to survive."

She stood up, found a hair tie and pulled up her scattered hair. When she looked back at the watchtower, she looked like the most flamboyant daughter of a general.

"I haven't danced with a sword for a long time. I count you lucky today."

The inner demon disappeared, and she finally no longer suppressed her preferences, let alone her original appearance in the depression of bereavement.

Wanglou stood in the corridor, looking at the woman under the crescent willow tree who was reflected in the sword light and was extremely beautiful. Although she was a little tired from being idle for many years, the radiance on her face made him obsessed.

"how?"

She was a little out of breath, but her eyes were burning with anticipation.

"Although it's a bit unfamiliar, it's still passable, right?"

"master."

He walked up to her and carefully wiped the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief.

Then he looked into her eyes and said seriously: "I have never seen a woman as beautiful and charming as you. If I were not a eunuch, I would probably only be tempted by you in my life."

"Um?"

His sudden words that were almost a confession made her shake. It was as if it was the first day she met him, and her eyes were attracted by his handsome and clear face.

She subconsciously took a few steps back, but felt that her reaction was too strange, so she abruptly changed the subject.

"You are good at talking, but what about dinner? He keeps me here, so he can't not give me dinner, right?"

"Wait a moment, I'll get it."

He bowed neatly and turned to leave, as if the ambiguous atmosphere just now was Pei Yi's illusion.

But compared to Prince Duan's disbelieving and slightly surprised look when he saw the sword in her dowry, it was hard for her not to indulge a little bit in Wanglou.

She felt relieved that Xing'er had Lan Xin by her side. However, she was completely heartbroken when they came to this day as a couple.

It had been many days since Jiang Hong returned home, but he just couldn't wait for Wei Huai'en to come to his door. On this day, he couldn't help it, and carefully mentioned to his parents at the dinner table that Wei Huai'en had an unusual relationship with his chamberlain Xiao Qi.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Jue and Ning Yu were not surprised at all, and just nodded lightly.

"No, Dad, Mom, don't you think that Youyou shouldn't be so close to that chamberlain? After all, Youyou is also my aunt's only daughter, how can she mix with..." and an eunuch?

But even though he thought about it for a while, he still didn't want to degrade Xiao Qi to this. He just felt that Wei Huai'en should have a better choice, and it was not that he had forgotten Xiao Qi's numerous military exploits.

"What, you still care about Yoyo?"

Ning Yu put down her chopsticks first.

"I've seen that kid Xiao Qi several times. Let's not talk about his appearance and character. I just want to say that back then he dared to borrow troops from all over the city and risked his life to avenge Huaide and Youyou. Even we can't say anything bad about him.

not good."

"Your mother is right. Although that boy has a bad status, this is not a choice he can make. Youyou can see more clearly than you. Knowing the true heart is the most rare thing."

Jiang Jue also answered.

"But……"

"It's nothing but. Although Yoyo is very popular now, the road she has to take is extremely difficult. If the people around her can't even choose according to her own wishes, what else can she do to make the decision on her own?"

Ning Yu was always worried that Wei Huaien would give up too much along the way, and she cried with heartache as she spoke.

"Mom, I understand. I was wrong. Don't be sad. I think Youyou and Xiao Qi are very good. She is much more happy now than she was three years ago. You don't have to worry about her all the time."

Jiang Hong quickly comforted Ning Yu.

"Okay, I don't have to worry about you, so I'll worry about you. You're already a grown man, but which girl would like a stupid boy like you?"

Jiang Hong didn't expect that Ning Yu would target him as soon as the conversation changed. He arbitrarily picked up the rice in the bowl and ran out of the house.

To prevent fire and theft, your house will be destroyed.

Maybe Wanglou is not very likable, but I wrote his role very touchingly.

He is the bad guy, for sure.
