"No." Mu Yunmeng answered Hongjin's question straightforwardly. He stood up and walked towards the bed. When passing by Hongjin, Mu Yunmeng whispered: "Find a place by yourself."
Stay there. Don't act privately. If it happens again, you will have to think about the consequences yourself."
"I want to live here..."
"No." Mu Yunmeng squinted at the red scarf and refused without thinking. "Leave immediately."
Mu Yunmeng was given an eviction order, and Hong Jin had to leave unwillingly. Mu Yunmeng watched Hong Jin walk out of the room, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Neither he nor Bai Moyue expected that Hong Jin would show up so soon.
Own.
Bai Hanyi... When Mu Yunmeng thought of the initiator of the whole thing, he secretly clenched his fists. Mu Yunmeng, who was no longer sleepy, put on his outer robe, left the room, and disappeared into the night.
During the day, Xi Honglei got up and practiced with Feng Rusong all morning before being taken into the palace by Ran Yunpo. Along the way, Ran Yunpo was silent and Xi Honglei did not dare to say anything out loud because she simply
I don’t know why I entered the palace this time.
Entering the palace, Xi Honglei met many civil and military ministers, including Xi Qingsong and Mu Yunmeng.
Everyone gathered together, as if there was something important going on. Xi Honglei looked at the decorations in the room and couldn't help but wonder why the banquet was being held in broad daylight? Is there any happy event?
Soon, Xi Honglei understood the reason. Seeing Bai Hanyi appear in his sight with a smile on his face, Xi Honglei couldn't help but be a little surprised. This was because it was the first time that Xi Honglei felt it in person. It turned out that Bai Hanyi
He was such a famous person. After arriving in the capital, the emperor could find out about it, and he could ask the emperor to hold a banquet for him just to invite him to the palace to play a song for everyone.
Bai Hanyi stood in front of everyone, glanced around everyone in the room with a smile, and finally laid his eyes on Xi Honglei. Under everyone's puzzled gaze, he proposed to play a song with Xi Honglei.
requirements.
As soon as Bai Hanyi said what he said, everyone looked at each other. Some were gloating and wanted to see Xi Honglei make a fool of himself. Some were also curious, wondering why Bai Hanyi said such words. But in the hearts of Ran Yunpo, Ran Yunhao and others
But there are very few.
All eyes fell on Xi Honglei, and Xi Honglei could not refuse. Because she knew that if she made a fool of herself here, it would discredit the Xi Mansion and embarrass the Chu Palace. So even if she was unwilling, Qing
If she didn't want to, she could only stand up with a smile and walk slowly to Bai Hanyi.
"Miss Xi, long time no see." Bai Hanyi took the initiative to say hello to Xi Honglei.
"It's been a long time indeed." Xi Honglei smiled and talked to Bai Hanyi, and then asked: "What song do you want to play?"
Xi Honglei's question made Bai Hanyi frown in embarrassment, "I haven't thought about it yet. How about this? I'll play a casual song first and Miss Xi will cooperate with me."
Bai Hanyi's words made Xi Honglei's eyes tremble. Although she could play the piano, she was pretty good at it. But after Xi Honglei came to this world, she never paid attention to the famous music here. She didn't know that Bai Hanyi could play it.
What kind of music is it? It requires extremely high skills to play it with Bai Hanyi rashly. What if she...
Xi Honglei looked at Bai Hanyi with gloomy eyes. Regarding Bai Hanyi's deliberate attempt to cause trouble for her, Xi Honglei could only nod in agreement. Sitting on the blanket, Xi Honglei gently plucked the strings and listened to the sound of the strings.
After adjusting the sound, Xi Honglei nodded towards Bai Hanyi, indicating that he could start.
Bai Hanyi sat next to Xi Honglei with a smile in his eyes. He glanced at Mu Yunmeng who was sitting in the corner without any trace. Bai Hanyi lowered his eyes and started playing seriously.
Xi Honglei listened attentively to every note in Bai Hanyi's music. After listening for a moment, Xi Honglei took a deep breath, bit the bullet and started to cooperate with Bai Hanyi. Her nerves were so tense that it seemed like a string might break out at any time.
Broken strings.
This was the first time that Xi Honglei showed off her piano skills in front of everyone. After the song ended, everyone was still a little bit unable to react. They couldn't associate the woman in front of them, who could coordinate perfectly with Bai Hanyi, with the stupid girl before.
Come together.
"Miss Xi is really amazing." Bai Hanyi stood up, clapped his hands first, and said in appreciation: "Bai is willing to be the loser."
"Young Master Bai, you are serious. Hong Lei only knows a little bit about it. How dare you compare with Mr. Bai who is famous all over the world." Xi Hong Lei spoke politely to Bai Han Yi, but the cold light in her eyes made Bai Han Yi confused.
He clearly felt Xi Honglei's hostility towards him.
Xi Honglei returned to Ran Yunpo and sat down with her legs a little weak. She whispered: "I was scared to death..."
Xi Honglei's words made Ran Yunpo smile playfully and ask: "Are you still afraid?"
"Of course, if I don't play well, I will lose your face, Your Highness. How can I not be afraid?"
Everyone in the hall was discussing with great interest the piece Xi Honglei had just played, so the quiet conversation between Xi Honglei and Ran Yunpo did not attract anyone's attention.
Xi Honglei sat there in fear, eating and waiting for time. Finally, when the banquet was over, Xi Honglei was called outside by Bai Hanyi.
Xi Honglei looked at the two people behind Bai Hanyi. The Chi Yidan was whom Xi Honglei had met before, but the other one was unfamiliar to Xi Honglei. He nodded to Chi Yidan, and Xi Honglei was talking to her.
Said hello.
"What do you want from me?" Xi Honglei asked Xiang Bai Hanyi coldly.
"It's nothing, it's just that I haven't seen Miss Xi for a while and I miss her a little." Bai Hanyi said with a smile on his face: "I heard that Miss Xi is getting married to Prince Chu?"
"Yeah." Xi Honglei nodded, wondering what kind of medicine Bai Hanyi was selling in this gourd.
"Then Bai wants to congratulate Miss Xi. I wonder what gift Miss Xi wants?" Bai Hanyi looked at Xi Honglei flatteringly and asked.
"Mr. Bai made a serious statement. Your words are enough."
Xi Honglei spoke to Bai Hanyi very carefully. After both of them had had enough politeness, Xi Honglei slowly left Bai Hanyi's sight.
As soon as Xi Honglei left, Bai Hanyi smiled evilly, turned around, made eye contact with the person behind him, and asked, "How was it?"
Hongjin curled her lips disdainfully, sneered and said, "What is it like?"
"I see my sister whom I haven't seen for many years, and she has become so outstanding and will soon become the enviable Princess Chu. As a sister, don't you have anything to say?" Bai Hanyi was curious.
question.
"She has become stronger, and I am indeed a little happy. Because anyway, she has a face similar to mine, and I don't want her to use my face to embarrass herself. But the rest has nothing to do with me. She
Whether she is poor or blessed, whether she is a princess or a commoner, it has nothing to do with me."
"Tsk, tsk, you are so heartless." Bai Hanyi shook his head and sighed: "She is your sister, are you not worried about her life or death at all?"
"Sister?" Hongjin raised her eyebrows and sneered: "I have left the Xi family a long time ago. She is said to be my sister, but she just looks like me and has the same name. I haven't seen her for so many years.
But, please stop teasing me with sisterly affection, it’s boring.”
Hong Jin's words made Bai Hanyi clearly understand her attitude towards Xi Honglei, and also made Bai Hanyi look forward to the future days even more.
Bai Hanyi smiled silently, and after staying in the palace for a while, he took Chi Yidan and Hongjin out of the palace. But just after leaving the palace gate, Bai Hanyi saw Mu Yunmeng and Xi Hong not far away.
Looking at the two people standing face to face, Bai Hanyi smiled secretly and strode over.
"Miss Xi, what a coincidence." Bai Hanyi smiled and asked, "Where is Prince Chu?"
"The prince has been summoned by the emperor." Xi Honglei replied lightly, and then said: "Honglei still has something to do, so I will leave first. Mr. Bai, see you later."
After saying that, Xi Honglei prepared to go back to the palace with the guards sent by Ran Yunpo who were standing by and watching her all the time.
"What did Mr. Mu just talk to Miss Xi? Mr. Bai is very curious." Bai Hanyi burst into tears when he saw Xi and wanted to leave, so he immediately asked.
"What can I talk about with her? It's just to give her something according to the emperor's order. Otherwise, what do you think I would say to a woman like her?" Mu Yunmeng glanced at Xi Honglei with disdain,
He said sarcastically. Although his voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by Xi Honglei who took two steps forward.
His heart sank, Xi Honglei paused, and then he left without looking back as if nothing had happened. Bai Hanyi felt a little uncomfortable just looking at it.
Xi Honglei and Ran Yunpo's men left, and Mu Yunmeng and Bai Hanyi walked side by side. Mu Yunmeng glanced at the two people behind Bai Hanyi, and recognized the disguised red scarf at a glance. He said coldly
, Mu Yunmeng asked in a low voice: "Why are you following him?"
Seeing that Mu Yunmeng recognized her, Hongjin immediately smiled happily and said, "He said he could see you here, so I followed him. Yunmeng, Xihonglei made you unhappy? Why are you so depressed?
, do you want me to kill her?"
"Nonsense." Mu Yunmeng frowned, looked at the red scarf, and asked: "Am I going to smile when I see her? Are you going to kill everyone I see?"
Mu Yunmeng's face showed a chill, Hong Jin could only shrink his neck and said: "No... I just said it casually..."
It’s not that Hongjin didn’t understand Mu Yunmeng’s words, she just said those words because she hated Xi Honglei. She knew Mu Yunmeng very well, and she knew that what Mu Yunmeng just said was perfectly normal. She also knew that Xi Honglei
Her current status is unusual. If she kills Xi Honglei, it will disrupt Mu Yunmeng's plan. So she is really just talking. But after Mu Yunmeng reprimanded her like this, Hongjin still couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.
.The hatred towards Xi Honglei became even deeper.
