Chapter 163: Burning the Heart

After the dinner, Murong Gongzi finally signed an alliance agreement with Zhong Lishuo. Jin Se just watched quietly, waiting for the moment when the jade seal was stamped on the alliance seal, and there was always a feeling of relaxation in his heart, perhaps it was the first time in a period of time that he had such a relaxed moment.

Hongluan stood behind Murong Gongzi, with a detached but dignified smile, and Jin Se stood aside with a casual smile on the corner of his mouth, which was both to Hongluan and to himself. Zhong Lishuo seemed to be very happy, the moment he turned around, his hand inadvertently slid over Jin Se's shoulder, but it was easily dodged by Jin Se, but Murong Gongzi was much more generous, he took a step back, ordered his subordinates to put away the covenant, and saluted Zhong Lishuo, Zhong Lishuo hurriedly helped him up.

At this time, it is natural to let Zhong Lishuo and Murong Gongzi talk about some things alone, Jin Se knew that it was inconvenient for him to mix at this time, and when he was thinking about how to find a way to leave, it was Hongluan who opened his mouth first, she suddenly approached Jin Se, and put on a kind expression to Zhong Lishuo, but she could see the deliberateness in her expression, and her voice was also pretentious as usual:

"Congratulations to the eldest prince, congratulations to the young master. In that case, can the concubine ask for a reward? Jin Se suddenly didn't understand Hongluan's intention to do this, she was a little stunned, but she still didn't change her face, and turned her head to look at Zhong Lishuo. Zhong Lishuo Xu was in a good mood today, and after listening to Hongluan's words, he was stunned for a moment, then laughed a few times, and asked:

"Mrs. Murong is so polite, it doesn't hurt to just say it, as long as I can do it." Hongluan also smiled, then lowered her eyes, blessed her body, and said lightly: "The concubine Jinse girl is very shrewd and capable, I think she is also very popular with the prince, the concubine since the beginning of seeing the Jinse girl, she thinks she is like the ancients, so I want to ask for a gift, let Sister Jinse accept me as a righteous sister, but also round the concubine's desire to have a sister." As soon as these words came out, Jin Se was already clear, and Hongluan's plan was also to want Jin Se to protect her husband, and it would also make Zhong Lishuo take care of Murong Gongzi's power and treat her better.

is so well-intentioned, but Jin Se is a little flattered. Jin Se glanced at Zhong Lishuo and seemed to see the hesitation in his eyes. These days, she already knows Zhong Lishuo too well, his heart, his viciousness, and his scheming all make Jin Se shudder when she thinks about it, and then, now that Hongluan is Murong Gongzi's wife, she should help her even if she wants to keep Hongluan. Jin Se could only open his mouth and say to Zhong Lishuo:

"Your Highness, you see, I see that this Mrs. Murong is also very close to each other, since His Royal Highness and Prince Murong have signed an alliance today, it is better to make good things come together, let me accept Mrs. Murong as my sister." Although Zhong Lishuo was a little unhappy in his heart, he couldn't refuse anymore, so he could only nod and say with a smile: "Okay, it's okay." In this way, Jin Se finally has a sister, and he always has some scruples. In this way, it is a little harsh to listen to Jin Se's ears, so Zhong Lishuo also hopes to use this method to tie Jin Se. Suddenly there was a little sadness, it turned out that until now, he Zhong Lishuo was still so afraid of her leaving, this kind of control was too cruel for Jin Se.

When Jin Se was stunned, it was Hongluan who opened his mouth first: "Young Master, Your Highness, it is a little inconvenient for us women to be here, you want to talk about big things, why don't you let me take my sister down first." Murong Gongzi listened to Hongluan's words, there was a deep approval in his eyes, maybe it was because there were others, he just patted Hongluan's back gently, Zhong Lishuo nodded and said to Murong Gongzi:

"Mrs. Murong is really virtuous, and Prince Murong is really empowered by this lady." Murong Gongzi hurriedly caught Zhong Lishuo's words. And those languages, Jin Se didn't have any ideas to listen to.

Hongluan saw Jinse's displeasure, just gently pulled the corner of her sleeve, and retreated with Jinse.

Only out of the main hall, Jin Se can finally relax, but Hongluan, still with a silent smile on his face, alienated and cold, such a look, Jin Se felt familiar, thought carefully for a moment, but just smiled in vain, it turned out that such a look often appeared on Jin Se's face, but now, it seems to have become a little numb.

"What's wrong with my sister? I don't think you're very happy. Hongluan first noticed the change in Jin Se's expression, and asked with concern, Jin Se looked up at her, showing a light smile, before he wanted to say something, but in the end it was a faint sentence;" It's not very convenient here, so let's find a place where there are no outsiders. Hongluan understood, and pulled Jinse towards her cabinet.

It's just that the place where ordinary women live, there is no magnificent decoration, and it even looks a little shabby. Jin Se couldn't help but sigh a little, such a house is not something that a woman like Wen Shumei can handle safely. Hongluan seemed to see Jinse's thoughts, she just smiled lightly and said:

"It's still a joke for my sister, it's a little shabby here, and it's not even as good as the residence in the Drunken Immortal Residence." He raised his hand and lit the lamp on the side of the table. Jin Se was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "Although it is a little simpler, but fortunately, you still have Murong Gongzi, I can see that he really loves you." Jin Se said before she spoke, but she was sneered at by Hongluan, and she smiled: "Love? What a strong word, I can't afford it. I just want my sister to recognize me as a sister, and I am also selfish. The young master already knows my relationship with you, and he is also afraid that I will be bullied at home, so he thought of such an idea, and he can see that the eldest prince is not thin on you. Therefore, for him and me, they are all looking for a future. ”

Jin Se listened quietly, but he felt a little sour, and said in a low voice: "Speaking of which, Murong Gongzi is also good to you, I can see that the way he looks at you is something that others don't have." Hongluan smiled: "I know that he has affection for me, but he may not have love, in this mansion, everyone minds my origin." It is for this reason that although I have the status of a wife, I still live in such a house. Jin Se was a little distressed, she held Hongluan's hand and patted it gently: "I don't mind how others treat you, as long as he treats you, what do you care." Hongluan raised his head, but his eyes were sharp, and asked, "What about you, sister?" I can also see that the eldest prince treats you no better than others, but can you not care about other people? ”

Jin Se was suddenly dumbfounded, she didn't know how to answer in an instant, yes, whether a person is good to you or not, it has nothing to do with whether you love him or not, some warmth, can only warm the body, but not the heart.

Eventually, there was only silence
