Chapter 31
Dream Again
He is the outstanding and handsome Prince Pei.
The sun was shining brightly today, and Qu Fulan felt like he was sweating profusely after walking for only half an hour. However, Crown Prince Pei was not affected by the scorching sun at all. He looked noble, elegant, and refreshed.
She could even feel the slight chill on his body from the accidental bump just now.
Is it because of his high martial arts skills?
Just as he was thinking about how to explain, Prince Pei's cool voice came from above his head.
"You're such a reckless girl. Who are you going to work for?"
Qu Fulan: "... I mistakenly thought that I had offended a distinguished guest in the mansion, so I said this. I would like to pay my respects to the prince."
Pei Jian'an saw that the other party looked pale and sick, and couldn't help but said: "What's wrong with you?"
Qu Fulan took two steps back and covered his nose with a handkerchief. "I'm not feeling well. I'm afraid the prince may be sick. Please leave first."
Prince Pei put one hand behind his back and stood tall. He frowned when he heard this, "Since you are sick, why don't you ask for leave?"
"This servant has already taken leave of absence. This time I came out just to ask a question. I will go back to Fushou Hall now."
Prince Pei waved her hand to leave.
After they left, he said to the attendant behind him, "Go and ask the doctor to take a look at her."
Even the doctor in the mansion will not take the initiative to treat his servants unless the master orders him to do so.
The attendant responded and was about to leave, but Pei Jian raised his hand to stop him: "That's all."
He almost forgot that the girl had some medical skills.
The entourage was a little confused. Should I go or not?
Pei Jian's eyes fell in the distance, where guests gathered in twos and threes to chat.
On the other side, a certain attendant found that his master was missing and couldn't help but said anxiously, "He was still here just now. How come I went to arrange the carriage and the master disappeared?"
Another said: "Wait a little longer, maybe I bumped into an acquaintance and was taken to other places to socialize."
"Weren't you here to serve the Crown Prince just now? Why don't you know where the Crown Prince has gone?"
"I just peed. I have three urgent needs."
"you……"
"Now you can see clearly, are people coming this way?" Pei Jian narrowed his eyes slightly and said.
The follower turned around and said: "I can see clearly that Prince Xiao, who was about to leave, suddenly came to the back garden for some reason."
Although the Pei and Xiao families are bitter rivals, there will always be intersections in general scenes. Therefore, today's wedding at the Pei Mansion was also attended by the Xiao family.
vice versa.
He just knew that his identity was sensitive, so he didn't leave when it was time to leave, and went to the back garden of someone else's house. Originally, this was nothing. It would have been okay if he went with others, but he went to the back garden very suddenly because he was alone.
In this way, it is natural to pay more attention to it.
Although the Pei family does not hide any dirty secrets, there are always some places that are not suitable for outsiders to enter.
"Send someone to search for it secretly, so as not to alert other guests."
"yes."
If you look down at the back garden of Pei Mansion from a third perspective at this time, you will definitely find an interesting phenomenon.
As soon as Qu Fulan left the Waterside Pavilion, someone arrived behind him.
Who is it if it’s not Prince Xiao?
The girls in the attic have not left yet. The view here is the best and they can see many guests clearly. It is a feast for the eyes. Naturally, they will not leave easily in such a wonderful place.
I didn't expect that I couldn't see Prince Xiao at the lively banquet, but Prince Xiao was here instead.
People always say that Prince Pei Mo was as good as jade and a gentleman like no other in the world, but this is not the case, otherwise there would be no saying that the Southern Minister was the Qing of the Northern Dynasty.
The ladies in the capital city were impressed by Prince Pei's gentlemanly character, and naturally they would also be impressed by Prince Xiao's coldness and indifference.
Both are good, and their reputations are generally great.
But Prince Pei is more popular, because Prince Pei looks clear, clear, and kind, while Prince Xiao is serious and restrained, cold as iron.
Naturally, this girl's family prefers elegant and modest gentlemen.
This did not prevent them from being shy and excited when facing Prince Xiao.
Led by Miss Zheng, they all saluted Prince Xiao.
"The slave family has met Prince Xiao."
Xiao Shiqing frowned and looked at the Yingying Yanyan in front of him, but he didn't find the familiar figure he was looking for.
Could it be that I saw it wrong just now?
Xiao Shiqing looked serious and did not take the women in front of him seriously. He just nodded slightly and turned around to leave.
The girls who were left behind looked confused.
Miss Zheng bit her lip and mustered up the courage to catch up, "Who is Prince Xiao looking for? Tell him, maybe we can know."
This is a pure lie, just to take the opportunity to spend more time with Prince Xiao.
There are not many handsome men with family backgrounds in the capital city, but there are many girls waiting for marriage. In such a situation where "there are too many monks and too little rice", the girls are eager to go out of their way to find their own right husband.
Every encounter counts as one, what if you are lucky enough to step on it?
Xiao Shiqing looked at the woman who stopped him and felt impatient in his heart. He didn't want to pay attention to it, but the other person's words made him stop and opened his mouth. He didn't know where to start the words.
He thought about it in his mind before saying, "Has anyone here ever left early?"
Miss Zheng didn't expect that he really came here to look for someone. If he was looking for someone among girls, he must be looking for a woman.
He felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but said on his face, "Before we came here, there was no one else here. Since we got here, we have been staying here, and no one has left early. If you don't believe me, you can ask them."
Hearing this, the other girls stepped forward one after another. The closer they got to Prince Xiao, the more they blushed and their hearts beat up, "Miss Zheng is right, we have been enjoying the scenery here and no one has left early. I wonder who the Prince is looking for?"
"
These girls are not lying, it’s just that they don’t treat the servants as human beings, so they don’t count them.
Xiao Shiqing's eyes flashed with sadness, he stopped talking, raised his hand to bow to the other party, then turned and left.
The girls behind them all looked disappointed.
Qu Fulan didn't know that he was lucky enough to escape.
She returned to Fushou Tang, took medicine, and had a deep sleep. She fell into such a deep sleep that she didn't even notice when the people in the same room came back to sleep.
Also, she had a dream again. Maybe she was frightened by the male protagonist Xiao Shiqing's words during the day. This dream was a bit long for her.
Starting from when the heroine was still an official lady, she dreamed that she and Xiao Shiqing were childhood sweethearts. The two families were well-matched and they only waited for the heroine to get hairpins before they got engaged.
Due to an accident, the heroine's family was confiscated, the men were exiled, and the women were made slaves.
The heroine was bought back as a maid by the Pei family, but she wholeheartedly hoped that her sweetheart would come to save her one day. After all, they were in love with each other.
Waiting for the rescue of her sweetheart has become the heroine's only belief in living.
Then they met at the Pei family's wedding, and Xiao Shiqing agreed to Prince Pei's conditions, spent two years accumulating merit, and replaced the heroine.
Such a great kindness, the heroine should pledge herself to her and return home with Xiao Shiqing.
The heroine thought that all suffering was over and a good life would begin, but little did she know that she fell into the abyss.
In the eyes of Xiao Shiqing's family, the heroine is no longer worthy of the hero. What's more, she has also worked as a maid. Who knows if she is clean?
Xiao Shiqing is busy with official duties and cannot stay with the heroine at home all day long. The heroine lives in Xiao Shiqing's home. All kinds of rumors and rumors are coming towards the heroine. She is helpless and has no place to complain.
Later, a cousin came to Xiao Shiqing's family, and she was the one whom Xiao Shiqing's whole family was satisfied with. They began to plot against the heroine, so that she would retreat when she saw the difficulties.
When the heroine was isolated and helpless, she foolishly did many wrong things. In a trap set by others, the heroine injured her cousin. Xiao Shiqing was very disappointed with the heroine and married her cousin instead.
