Chapter 70 Jealousy

"That's right, that's Lin Wanru's daughter, not my Zhu Meiyang's." Zhu Meiyang confronted Xi Yuanshan with a tough attitude, and the atmosphere between the two made Li Guilan and Li Qianning on the side feel scared. He didn't dare to interrupt and say anything.

Zhu Meiyang's eyes were bloodshot, and when Xi Yuanshan mentioned Lin Wanru and Xi Honglei, he lost his rational attitude, and was extremely sad.

"Xihonglei is not my daughter, so whether she becomes a princess or a future queen, she has nothing to do with me, Zhu Meiyang!"

"Forget it, forget it, everyone, stop arguing." Li Guilan smiled awkwardly, took a step forward, took Zhu Meiyang's arm, and persuaded: "We are all one family, don't talk about these two families. Find Lin Wanru now That’s the most important thing, and we’ll talk about the rest later.”

After finishing speaking, Li Guilan winked at Li Qianning.The two of them worked together to drag Zhu Meiyang out of the room, away from Xi Yuanshan's sight.

Xi Yuanshan looked at the backs of the three leaving, and sat down on the chair dejectedly.But the worry about Lin Wanru in his heart didn't decrease at all.

After Li Guilan and Li Qianning sent Zhu Meiyang back to their residence, they also parted ways and went back to their own homes.

Sitting in the room, Li Guilan discussed Lin Wanru's disappearance with her two sons, Xi Hongbo, Xi Jiabao, and Xi Hongmiao.

Li Guilan has been helping Lin Wanru speak nicely in front of the master for a while because of the threat she made to her with tears in her eyes.Because of this, Zhu Meiyang and the others were offended.But Li Guilan can't help it, she has something in the hands of that dead girl Xi Honglei, she can only do this!And Xi Honglei also promised her that she would help her son win the property of Xi Mansion.But now?

Xihonglei, the sparrow, has turned into a phoenix, not to mention helping herself, even the number of times she returns to Xifu is getting less and less.Under such changes, Li Guilan had to worry about the future life of herself and her children.He also had to play with the wind, so that he would not offend Zhu Meiyang, a woman who still held the financial power of Xifu.

What happened today made Li Guilan understand Xi Yuanshan's attitude towards Lin Wanru's mother and daughter, and also understand that Zhu Meiyang was almost unable to suppress her inner dissatisfaction and anger.It seems that regardless of whether Lin Wanru will come back or not, or whether there is an accident, some changes will inevitably occur in the Xifu...

"Mother, Second Mother, did she really tell Dad that?" Xi Hongbo was very surprised after hearing Li Guilan's words.After seeing Li Guilan nod her head, Xi Hongbo couldn't help laughing, and then restrained herself a little under Li Guilan's dissatisfied gaze.

"Erniang is right. That Lin Wanru was wrong with our Xifu family. There is also that Xihongtear, who doesn't piss to take care of herself, and even wants to be the princess of Chu!" Xi Hongbo closed his mouth, but Xi Hongmiao had no intention of shutting up.Curling the corners of her mouth, Xi Hongmiao showed a disdainful smile.When she mentioned Xihonglei, she was full of anger. "Think about when she made the whole capital laugh at our Xifu, Prince Chu didn't know what to think! Look horizontally and vertically, you can choose whatever you want. You can't choose her! Are you right?"

"That's right, I really don't know what Prince Chu thinks." Xi Jiabao, who had never said anything, nodded with a sneer.Then the topic turned to the matter of Lin Wanru's disappearance. "Tell me, where did Lin Wanru go? She usually doesn't go out very much, but today she suddenly disappeared. If she came back by herself, it would be nothing. If it's really like that Yunshang a few days ago Like a princess, she was killed by someone..."

"Jiabao, don't talk nonsense!" Li Guilan saw that her son had brought out the matter of the princess without thinking, so she quickly reached out and blocked Xi Jiabao's mouth, signaling him not to speak any further.

Li Guilan and the others were muttering and discussing in the room, and Li Qianning was not idle either.It happened that her daughter Xi Hongli came back home. Li Qianning, who hadn't seen Xi Hongli for a long time, held her daughter's hand excitedly, sat on the bed and began to talk about Lin Wanru.

Xi Hongli heard it in his ears and kept it in his heart.After returning to the palace, he told the matter to Queen Shu Rumei.

After listening to Xi Hongli's words, Shu Ru frowned, and said worriedly: "Wan Ruan used to be Ben Gong's personal maid, and she has a very good relationship with Ben Gong. If there is really something wrong with her, Ben Gong... ..."

"Queen, don't think too much, I think she will go back to Xifu in a few days." Xi Hongli said to Shu Rumei with great certainty: "My father has always been more concerned about Aunt Lin's affairs, so I also Can't help but make a fuss. Hongli has returned to Xifu several times in the past few days, and once she has news of Aunt Lin, she will come back immediately to inform the queen."

"Okay, okay." Shu Ru nodded frowningly, then thought for a while, and said: "Hong Li, go and send someone to call the prince."

Ran Yunpo was furious because of Xi Honglei and Mu Yunmeng's departure, and after calling Ran Yunhao out of the palace, Ran Yunpo drank mulled wine in the mansion.

Ran Yunhao silently saw Ran Yunpo's expression in his eyes, and couldn't help but secretly sighed. "Third brother, I heard people say that Mu Yunmeng took Xi Honglei to catch some thief this time. If you are really worried, why not send some people to track them down and bring Honglei back Isn't it done?"

"I sent people, but they were all thrown away by Mu Yunmeng." Mentioning this matter, Ran Yunpo clenched his fists violently, and a frightening murderous intent flashed across his eyes in an instant.

Ran Yunhao raised his eyebrows, seeing Ran Yunpo wanting to kill someone.With a slight smile, Ran Yunhao drank the wine in his hand and asked in a low voice: "Third brother, have you noticed that your attitude towards Xi Honglei is quite different from before. Do you... like it? her?"

"Just kidding, how could I like a woman like her!" Ran Yunpo denied Ran Yunhao's guess without even thinking about it.

"Then since you don't like her, why didn't you even touch her when she killed the water-soluble smoke? You must know that you were not even allowed to touch the water-soluble smoke before." Ran Yunhao pointedly mentioned the water-soluble smoke The matter of being killed by Xihonglei said: "If you became like this because you like Xihonglei, then I can understand. But if you don't like Xihonglei, then I can't figure it out, you What is this for? Xi Honglei and Mu Yunmeng's departure, although it was Mu Yunmeng's idea, but it was also agreed by the father. Xi Honglei is a smart woman, I don't tell you, you also have a deep understanding. She is not gone forever, but she will come back after finishing the business with Mu Yunmeng. In this case, what are you anxious about? What are you worried about? Xi Honglei is the concubine of Chu appointed by the emperor himself , are you still afraid that Mu Yunmeng will do something to her?"

Ran Yunhao sharply pointed out that something was wrong with Ran Yunpo, which made Ran Yunpo also have to look directly at his own feelings about Xi Honglei.

Does he like to breathe red tears?Or was he just unwilling, unwilling to shed red tears and left with Mu Yunmeng in front of him, regardless of his own obstruction?Or, both?

Ran Yunpo turned his head to look into the distance with misty eyes, his mind was in a mess.After a while, he said quietly: "I don't like women who are too smart to control."

"But even if you're not very smart, you didn't know how to use water-soluble smoke at the beginning, but didn't it change in the end? Third brother, what you said is not the point."

Ran Yunhao's correction made Ran Yunpo turn his attention to him.Facing Ran Yunhao's eyes, Ran Yunpo asked in a low voice: "So Brother Ninth, do you think I have feelings for Xi Honglei?"

"I'm not sure, that's why I want to ask you, third brother." Ran Yunhao curled his lips into a smile, and could understand Ran Yunpo's entangled mood.After all, Xihonglei is really different from other women.At least for Ran Yunhao, this was the first time he had seen such a smart woman.

From the beginning of Xi Honglei, he helped the third brother to speak to the father, and the father agreed to give the third brother time, and temporarily no longer care about the matter of water-soluble smoke.Later, Xi Honglei helped Mu Yunmeng solve the case and found out the serial murder case in Beijing.Xi Honglei, who was never known, took over the business of Xifu, and uncovered Liu Fu who had embezzled thousands of taels of Xifu.Unexpectedly, Xi Honglei rescued Mu Yunmeng who had been imprisoned in the dungeon by his father.All of this shocked Ran Yunhao.As for Ran Yunpo, Ran Yunhao thought his feelings must be stronger than his own.

Xi Honglei has transformed from a good-for-nothing fool to what she is today, and everyone around her has to look at her with admiration.Even if Ran Yunpo doesn't say anything, Ran Yunhao can be sure that Ran Yunpo's heart has definitely changed.

Ran Yunhao's words made Ran Yunpo fall into deep thought.No one can understand the change of Xihonglei more deeply than him.Think about the scene when Xi Honglei was wearing a face of residual makeup and followed behind her every day, unable to drive away or scold her.Then think about Xi Honglei's skillful handling of every difficult matter that happened to her, and her smooth relationship with everyone.Ran Yunpo only felt that she had changed too much and too fast, which made it impossible for him to accept it for a while.

Just like what Ran Yunhao said, Xihonglei is a smart woman.If this smart woman didn't stay by his side, but by Mu Yunmeng's side, then...

As soon as Ran Yunpo thought of this possibility, a feeling of anger beyond words rushed into his heart.His eyes turned red, and Ran Yunpo drank the wine on the table in one gulp after another, until the person sent by Shu Rumei appeared, and he stopped his movements.

"Emperor Niang is looking for third brother so late, there must be something important." Ran Yunhao got up, looked down at Ran Yunpo, and said: "It's getting late, none of us should drink. Third brother and I You go back to the palace together."
