The evil prince is wrapped around his body

Chapter 52 Becoming a Princess

"Honglei understands." Xi Honglei froze for a moment, then quickly nodded.What Ran Yunpo meant by saying this was nothing more than telling Xi Honglei to dress up well so that no outsiders would say anything.

Ran Yunpo was sent away, and several court ladies ushered in with tears in his eyes.He watched helplessly as these court ladies came into the room prepared, each of them holding various things in their hands.There are rouge and gouache, gold and silver jewelry, and sets of clothes of different colors.

Xi Honglei sat on the chair with a headache. After these people finished torturing her, it was already an hour later.

Sitting quietly in the house, Xi Honglei waited patiently for someone to summon him.But until noon, when Xi Honglei was already hungry, no one came to her.

Rubbing her stomach, Xi Honglei slowly stood up from the chair and walked to the door.Opening the door, before Xi Honglei could go out, she was startled by the maids and guards in the yard.

"Who told you to stay here?" Xi Honglei frowned, and asked the closest court lady.

"Back to the master, it is Chu Wang who ordered us to serve you here."

Ran Yunpo...

Xi Honglei sighed secretly, looked around the yard where there was no one else, Xi Honglei continued to ask: "Have you seen Princess Yunshang?"

"Princess Yunshang was summoned by the emperor early in the morning, and she hasn't come back yet."

Hearing what the maid said, Xi Honglei didn't say anything, and turned back to the room.Waited and waited, still no news.Xi Honglei had no choice but to lie back on the bed and take a nap.When he woke up again, he was dragged out of the bed abruptly by Ran Yunshang.

Xi Honglei opened his eyes in a daze, sat on the bed, looked at the anxious Ran Yunshang, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Don't sleep, the third brother is looking for you to eat."

"You don't need me to see the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs?" Xi Honglei was taken aback, and looked at Ran Yunshang suspiciously. "Prince Chu came over early in the morning and told me to prepare."

"No need. The third brother said that you were not feeling well, so the emperor didn't say anything. He just rewarded you with some things and told the third brother to take good care of you."

Ran Yunshang curled her lips in disdain when she remembered the scene at that time. "Now that all civil and military officials in the court know that the third brother loves you very much, even if you say that the third brother treats you badly in the future, no one will believe it."

After hearing what Ran Yunshang said, Xi Honglei vaguely understood what Ran Yunpo would say to the emperor at that time.

He let out a long sigh, nodded with tears in his eyes, and walked out the door with Ran Yunshang.Before walking out of the door, Xi Honglei gently grabbed Ran Yunshang's sleeve, and then asked with flickering eyes: "Mu Yunmeng... are you here today?"

"I'm here, I should have been called by my father. I left after I retired, and I didn't talk to him." Mentioning Mu Yunmeng, Ran Yunshang also showed a worried look on his face.

The two left the palace and joined Song Zixuan who was waiting outside.Xi Honglei originally thought that Ran Yunpo would ask everyone to have dinner in the palace, but she was directly brought to Chu Palace by Song Zixuan.

Moreover, what Xi Honglei and Ran Yunshang never expected was that besides Ran Yunpo's people, there was another person in the room who shouldn't be there, Mu Yunmeng.

Xi Honglei froze there the moment he opened the door and entered the room.And Ran Yunpo and the others were also slightly stunned after seeing such red tears.

She is dressed in a light blue palace attire with twin nests of cloud geese, and a newly picked white plum is slanted on her head. In addition, she only holds an exquisite jasper hairpin, adorned with thin silver thread beaded tassels.The muscles and bones are smooth, the lips are red without spots, and the eyebrows are green without painting.

Maybe it's because the image of Xihonglei before is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so when everyone sees her like this, they will feel even more thrilling.

Ran Yunpo came back to his senses first, and frowned, Ran Yunpo asked coldly, "Why is it so late?"

"Back to the lord... I accidentally fell asleep." Xi Honglei lowered her head, stuck out her tongue secretly, and softly answered Ran Yunpo's question.

Ran Yunpo was obviously choked up by Xi Honglei's answer, and a cold light flashed across his eyes in an instant. Just when Ran Yunpo was about to say something more, he was interrupted by Ran Yunhao at the side.

"Third brother, today is a happy day. If you have any disputes with Honglei, let's talk about it after we have left. After all, you 'husband and wife' quarrel, and we can't say anything."

Ran Yunhao looked at Ran Yunpo with a smile on his face, and said foolishly: "Father has already said that Honglei is his adopted daughter and Princess Chu personally selected by him. We dare not ignore her grievances, but third brother, you don't dare to ignore her." We dare not..."

Before Ran Yunhao finished speaking, he was shocked by Ran Yunpo's cold eyes, and he didn't dare to continue, so he could only sit there and laugh foolishly, making the room fall into a harmonious atmosphere.

According to everyone's arrangement, Xi Honglei sat beside Ran Yunpo.And the opposite of her happened to be Mu Yunmeng.

For such an arrangement, Xi Honglei had to be on tenterhooks.Xi Honglei had understood Ran Yunpo's attitude towards Mu Yunmeng a long time ago.On a day like today, why did Ran Yunpo call Mu Yunmeng here?

When the food was served, Ran Yunhao and the others chatted as usual.And Mu Yunmeng, who was not cared about by anyone, sat there happily, eating and drinking, without feeling uncomfortable at all because of being isolated.

Xi Honglei and Ran Yunshang exchanged glances from time to time.Sitting beside Ran Yunpo, Xi Honglei did not dare to make any excessive movements.

"Prince Chu."

Mu Yunmeng opened his mouth suddenly, looked directly at Ran Yunpo, Mu Yunmeng smiled slightly, drank the wine in his hand with twinkling eyes, and said softly: "I also ate this meal, and I also drank the wine. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. How?"

Mu Yunmeng's words caused the atmosphere in the room to plummet. Ran Yunpo looked at Mu Yunmeng expressionlessly, without any emotion in his eyes.After thinking for a while, Ran Yunpo nodded and agreed to Mu Yunmeng's request, and then sent Mu Yunmeng away with a sigh of relief.

"Me?" Xi Honglei looked at Ran Yunpo in surprise, not understanding why he did this.

Ran Yunpo's gloomy expression made Xi Honglei dare not ask any more questions, so she stood up quickly and walked out of the room with Mu Yunmeng.

The moment the door was closed, Xi Honglei breathed a sigh of relief with a tangled expression.Patting his chest, Xi Honglei carefully scanned the surrounding environment, and accompanied Mu Yunmeng towards the exit of Chu Palace.

"Why did you come?" Walking halfway, he asked softly with tears in his eyes.

"Prince Chu is looking for me, how dare I not come?" Mu Yunmeng raised her eyebrows jokingly, squinted at her and shed tears, and said, "It's you, congratulations on becoming Princess Chu."

"Hehe, thank you. But it's too early to say congratulations." Xi Hong twitched the corners of her mouth with a tearful smile, and wanted to ask Mu Yunmeng again, Zhong Zhenwang's affairs over there How is it.But thinking of where he was now, he didn't ask.After sending Mu Yunmeng out of the gate, he turned and returned to the room.

Mu Yunmeng stood at the door of the Chu Palace, looking at the back of Honglei with deep eyes.He didn't leave until Xi Honglei disappeared from his sight.

After Xi Honglei returned to the room, she ate without taste.Because she didn't know why Ran Yunpo was looking for her today, Xi Honglei had to be on guard all the time.

"Third Brother, if you have time someday, Honglei and I will go to the General's Mansion again, okay?" Ran Yunshang looked at Ran Yunpo flatteringly and asked with a smile.

"Huh?" Ran Yunpo frowned, then nodded, "Okay, let's go."

Ran Yunpo's answer made Ran Yunshang happy, and Xi Honglei sighed helplessly.The little princess's intentions are too obvious, whether this General Song can hold on is really a question.

Time flew by quickly, and when everyone was eating and drinking, Ran Yunpo suddenly and unexpectedly announced: "Honglei, you will move back to Chu Palace in a few days."

"Ah?!" Ran Yunshang heard what Ran Yunpo said, his expression changed immediately, and he protested more strongly than Honglei's reaction: "No! Who will accompany me when Honglei leaves? Third brother, you can't do this, wait for Honglei to marry Can't I just move in after arriving at Prince Chu's Mansion? I'm so boring in the palace alone!"

Ran Yunshang's strong protest made Ran Yunpo a little helpless.Leaning on the back of the chair, Ran Yunpo crossed his arms and looked at Ran Yunshang's anxious expression, then at Xi Honglei's silent expression, licked the corner of his mouth, and said, "The last month, that's it."

Ran Yunpo backed down, and Ran Yunshang didn't dare to continue bargaining.After eating and drinking enough, everyone prepared to leave.And Xi Honglei was naturally kept by Ran Yunpo.

"I don't know why the prince is looking for Honglei today." Xi Honglei looked at Ran Yunpo in front of him and asked softly.

"What did Mu Yunmeng tell you?"

"He said congratulations on becoming Princess Chu, and he didn't say anything else." Xi Honglei answered Ran Yunpo's question honestly, and then asked cautiously: "My lord, why did you call him here today? You don't like it." him?"

"This king just wants to see his reaction." Ran Yunpo sneered and sat down on the chair, and said in a clear voice: "And you, this king also wants to see how you see Mu Yunmeng in this situation, What expression will it be?"

"My lord still doesn't believe me?" Xi Honglei couldn't help feeling a little funny when she got such an answer. "Then, what does the prince think we can do if Mu Yunmeng and I react and have a bad expression? Why does the prince think that I will give up the great princess of Chu and go to find Mu Yun?" Meng came to anger you, my lord?"

"Xihonglei, you have become more and more courageous recently, how dare you talk to this king like this."
