With doubts, Xi Honglei barely slept well all night. After all, in this place, the only person she could really care about was Lin Wanru.
In the early morning, Xi Honglei got up listlessly, only to see Ran Yunshang walking toward the gate of the palace with a solemn face.
Ran Yunshang glanced at Xi Honglei with her peripheral vision, and slowly stopped, turning her head to meet Xi Honglei's eyes. "Honglei, I have some things to deal with today and have to go back to the palace. You can wait for me at the palace.
.”
"Okay." Xi Honglei nodded honestly and watched Ran Yunshang leave. After Ran Yunshang completely disappeared from her sight, Xi Honglei pressed her temples with a headache, thinking casually, Ran Yunshang would take the initiative to worry
What is the purpose of returning to the palace?
Ran Yunshang was sitting in the sedan, a little uneasy. His father would definitely call Brother Yunmeng into the palace today, because he would do this every year since Brother Yunmeng moved out of the palace.
Ran Yunshang has always wondered, since his father would do this, does it mean that he has never forgotten that person? But he loves her so much, why would he do this to Brother Yunmeng?
After getting off the sedan, Ran Yunshang stumbled towards Ran Fenghe's palace. When he arrived at the door of the palace, Ran Yunshang steadied his breathing, walked to one of the eunuchs guarding the door with cold eyes, and said: "I want to see my father."
Emperor."
"Back to the princess, the emperor has given orders not to see anyone now." The little eunuch lowered his head with twinkling eyes, not daring to look into Ran Yunshang's eyes.
really……
Ran Yunshang clenched her fists. She didn't expect Ran Fenghe to call Mu Yunmeng so early. The situation today was special, so even she didn't have the guts to break in like this.
Without saying a word, Ran Yunshang turned around and left in silence. He stopped at a place where he could see the gate, and then stared at the gate intently, waiting for Mu Yunmeng to appear.
Ran Fenghe was half lying on the soft couch, looking contemptuously at Mu Yunmeng who was kneeling in front of him. A touch of complex emotions quickly passed through his eyes. Ran Fenghe adjusted his posture slightly and said: "Beijing
Did you investigate the previous cases yourself?"
"Your Majesty, no." Mu Yunmeng answered bluntly, "It was Xi Honglei from Xi Mansion who helped me check it out."
Breathing red tears? Ran Fenghe frowned slightly when he heard this name that was always mentioned recently.
Why did Xi Honglei help Mu Yunmeng investigate the case? After thinking about it for a while, Ran Fenghe roughly guessed the answer. That girl Yun Shang has been clamoring to leave the palace to play with Xi Honglei recently, and Yun Shang
Ran Fenghe has always seen his feelings for Mu Yunmeng.
However, will the sharp-tongued Xi Honglei alone really solve the case?
Ran Fenghe glanced at Mu Yunmeng faintly, and suddenly laughed coldly. He raised his hand and hit Mu Yunmeng with the tea cup at hand. Ran Fenghe looked at the tea soaking Mu Yunmeng's clothes, but Mu Yunmeng still
While he was kneeling there calmly, without even moving, Ran Fenghe suddenly became furious!
Suddenly standing up from the soft couch, Ran Fenghe strode up to Mu Yunmeng and kicked him to the ground. Looking at Mu Yunmeng condescendingly, Ran Fenghe cursed loudly: "You're a worthless bastard!
It all depends on women!"
Mu Yunmeng's honesty and silence made Ran Fenghe furious. When he saw Mu Yunmeng getting up from the ground without any reaction and continuing to kneel on the ground, Ran Fenghe was so angry that he felt a headache.
"Get out, get out of here!" Ran Fenghe scolded Mu Yunmeng loudly, breathing heavily to calm down his emotions.
Mu Yunmeng lowered his head, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, then stood up slowly and walked towards the door of the room. But when he was halfway there, he suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked at Ran Fenghe who was standing there, and whispered softly
Asked: "Do you remember what day it is today?"
Mu Yunmeng's words made Ran Fenghe suddenly stunned. He quickly turned his head to look at Mu Yunmeng. Ran Fenghe wanted to call out to Mu Yunmeng, but he never spoke.
Sitting back on the soft couch dejectedly, Ran Fenghe closed his eyes with a headache.
What day is today...how could he not remember...
Today is the death anniversary of Mu Ziyi. How could he not remember it?
Mu Yunmeng walked out of Ran Fenghe's bedroom and patted the dust on his body. But before he took two steps, he saw Ran Yunshang rushing towards him with a nervous look on his face.
With a slight smile, Mu Yunmeng raised his hand and rubbed Ran Yunshang's hair. He whispered: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
"Brother Yunmeng." Ran Yunshang looked at Mu Yunmeng with tears in her eyes and said with a choked voice, "You can't go on like this."
Ran Yunshang's words kept Mu Yunmeng silent for a long time. Looking at Ran Yunshang in front of him intently, Mu Yunmeng suddenly took a step forward and gently hugged Ran Yunshang's trembling body. His chin rested on the top of Ran Yunshang's head, Mu Yunmeng gently
He sighed and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Be obedient and don't interfere with my business anymore."
After saying that, Mu Yunmeng let go of Ran Yunshang's body, turned around and left without mercy.
Tears couldn't help but flow down the moment Mu Yunmeng opened his mouth. Ran Yunshang watched Mu Yunmeng go further and further away, and the scenes she had seen before appeared in her mind. Ran Yunshang finally couldn't help crying loudly anymore.
came out.
Squatting on the ground, Ran Yunshang hugged her body and cried. After a long time, she stood up and wiped away her tears. Then she pretended that nothing happened, adjusted her breathing, and walked towards Ran Fenghe's palace...
"Mom, why did you ask me to come?" Ran Yunpo sat on the chair, looking puzzledly at Shu Rumei, who had been smiling from the moment he walked into the room, and asked with a frown. "Is there something important?
"
"Of course!" Shu Rumei walked over to Ran Yunpo and sat down next to him with a happy face, took Ran Yunpo's hand, looked at him with twinkling eyes, and said, "Have you taken Honglei to live in the palace?"
Ran Yunpo sighed helplessly, and then nodded. He didn't know why Shu Rumei had always been so interested in that woman Xi Honglei. From the time she made an engagement between him and Xi Honglei until now, as long as he made peace with her a little bit,
As Xi Honglei walked closer, Shu Rumei couldn't help but smile from ear to ear. How could that bitch be so lovable? Why didn't he notice?
"Po'er, as far as my mother knows, you never let women live in the palace, including that girl Shui Rongyan. Are you interested in Honglei..." Shu Rumei looked at Ran Yunpo meaningfully and chuckled.
Said: "After Honglei woke up, did you feel that she was different from before?"
"It's different, but my feelings for her haven't changed." Ran Yunpo shrugged his shoulders, looked directly at Shu Rumei, and asked with a wry smile: "Mom, what's so good about crying red tears? How can I
Didn’t you find it?”
"Are you really not aware of it?" Shu Rumei squinted her eyes slightly, glanced at Ran Yunpo carefully, and then suggested with a smile: "Then why don't I ask your father to issue an edict, and wait until you marry Honglei into the palace?
, and then slowly discover her benefits?"
Marry Xihonglei as your wife?!
When Ran Yunpo heard Shu Rumei's words, he was suddenly stunned. Then under Shu Rumei's gaze, he pursed his lower lip and shook his head decisively.
Ran Yunpo smiled jokingly, raised his finger and pointed at another person who had been standing in the room, and said: "It is better to marry that troublesome woman than this one."
"Oh?" Shu Rumei looked in the direction of Ran Yunpo's finger, and her eyes fell on Xi Hongli. She thought about it thoughtfully and smiled. "It turns out that Po'er likes people like Hongli.
"
"Empress." After hearing Shu Rumei's words, Xi Hongli bit her lower lip in embarrassment. This made Shu Rumei couldn't help laughing.
"Hongli, please go out first." Shu Rumei waved to Xi Hongli and sent her out. When only Shu Rumei and Ran Yunpo were left in the room, the look on Shu Rumei's face
The smile gradually disappeared.
"Po'er, are you really not planning to marry Honglei?"
"No plan." Ran Yunpo shook his head happily, then frowned and looked at Shu Rumei. He asked: "Mom, she is just a young lady from Xi Mansion, she can barely be called a young lady. I don't understand why you want to treat her so badly."
So persistent."
"Believe me, mother, I will not harm you. If you still want to inherit the throne, it is essential to stop crying." Under Ran Yunpo's shocked gaze, Shu Rumei slowly said, "Even if she
She is just a young lady from Xi Mansion, but she can help you far beyond your imagination. So you must consider this matter carefully."
To inherit the throne, it is essential to stop red tears...?!
Ran Yunpo licked his dry lower lip, took a deep look at Shu Rumei's serious expression, and walked out of the room without speaking. However, he kept thinking about Xi Honglei.
Ran Yunpo naturally understood that everything Shu Rumei did was for his own good, but he really couldn't understand what use this woman Xi Honglei could have? If he had to choose Xi Honglei's family, wouldn't Xi Honglei still be there?
Can there be several sisters to choose from? Why did the queen mother refuse to let go unless she chose Xi Honglei? Even if Xi Honglei is a smart woman, what's the use? Without her, the throne will definitely be hers, right?
Ran Yunpo has been thinking about Xi Honglei over and over in his mind, including everything today, including the massacre of the Zhang family because of Xi Honglei.
Returning to the Prince of Chu's Mansion uneasily, Ran Yunpo did not see Xi Honglei, but instead saw Shui Rongyan at the gate of the Prince's Mansion.
"Why are you here?" Ran Yunpo looked around and asked Xiang Shui Rongyan. "Is something wrong?"
"Can't Yan'er see the prince once everything is fine?" Shui Rongyan smiled bitterly and tilted his head to look at Ran Yunpo. "Or has the prince forgotten Yan'er now that he has Xi Honglei by his side?"
