"Nasty!" Yuan Liwan shyly beat Huo Hengyao's chest with her slender jade hand.

Huo Hengyao quickly grabbed Yuan Liwan's hands and pulled them into his arms. Yuan Liwan raised her head, her eyes were just on Huo Hengyao's eyes, and Yuan Liwan's cheeks flushed. Neither of them spoke anymore, and the atmosphere in the room became a little awkward.

Huo Hengyao lowered his head, his beautiful lips rushed towards Yuan Liwan's cherry mouth, and suddenly there was a small knock on the door. The two quickly changed their posture and looked at the door together.

"Who is it?" Yuan Liwan adjusted her state, pretending to calmly ask the person knocking on the door.

"It's me, General Huo." The Dark Guard replied at the door.

"It's you, come in." Huo Hengyao heard that it was the voice of the secret guard, and hurriedly came back. "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with being in such a hurry? ”

Watching the dark guard push the door in, Huo Hengyao asked calmly.

"General, I don't want to disturb, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who came to visit late at night, and said that he wanted to learn martial arts from you, Vice General Liu found a reason to delay His Royal Highness the Prince, so he immediately sent someone to look for you back." The secret guard entered the door and directly explained his intentions.

"How could the prince go to the barracks at this time for no reason?" Yuan Liwan asked with confusion, and then looked at Huo Hengyao with worry.

"It's fine. Don't worry, I'll be fine, it's urgent, Liu Ning doesn't know how long it can be delayed, I have to go back and deal with it quickly, and I have the opportunity to see you again. Huo Hengyao grabbed Yuan Liwan and comforted her. And gestured with his eyes, "And what I just told you, don't forget." ”

"Okay, you have to be careful." Yuan Liwan instructed Huo Hengyao.

"Let's go." Huo Hengyao looked at Yuan Liwan and nodded, turned around and said secretly.

Yuan Liwan looked at the back of Huo Hengyao leaving, and planned her next plan in her heart. You must stabilize the people of the Yuan Mansion first, and you can't startle the snake.

Huo Hengyao hurried back to the barracks and saw Lin Munian in his tent. I tidied up my clothes, lifted the curtain and walked in.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Huo Hengyao followed the rules and saluted Lin Munian when he entered the door.

"General Huo, you've been on this hut for a long time." Lin Munian actually didn't believe in such an absurd reason. But Huo Hengyao is now a celebrity in front of the emperor, so it's better not to anger him easily.

So I could only listen to Liu Ning's witty reason for delay, and quietly stayed in the barracks and waited for Huo Hengyao to appear. It's said to be witty, but the dignified prince can't go to the thatched house to find someone, right?

"Your Majesty is abrupt, your stomach is uncomfortable today, I didn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was coming, so you waited so long." Huo Hengyao still knows the depth and understands the severity. Reach out and don't hit the smiling person, it's right to say it first.

"I heard from my subordinates, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came so late to learn martial arts?" Huo Hengyao took the initiative to ask Lin Munian.

"Yes, it's really boring to stay in the palace, I originally wanted to exercise my body, and by the way, I also wanted to learn General Huo's extremely powerful light skills of flying eaves and walls. But now that I think about it, forget it, don't practice. "How could Lin Munian not know that Huo Hengyao was not in the barracks at all just now? It's just that I can't debunk it. So I can only refer to Sang scolding Huai and saying Huo Hengyao.

"Go back to the palace." Lin Munian instructed the old slave beside him.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is driving."

Lin Munian left, and Huo Hengyao also breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless of whether Lin Munian found out the truth of the matter or not, he didn't say anything, proving that he still had some scruples. With the emperor's backer, even if he is his son, what can he do?

On the way back to the palace, the sedan chair swayed, and Lin Munian's thoughts went up and down. He has always been thinking about Yuan Liwan in his heart. Although I haven't been to the Yuan Mansion to see her recently, I have always been relieved.

Moreover, judging from tonight's situation, Huo Hengyao must have sneaked out and went to the Yuan Mansion to see Yuan Liwan.

The gossip that circulated among the palace maids and eunuchs finally reached the ears of the queen. The queen was furious, the prince was rejected by a married woman, and everyone in the palace knew about it, which was a great shame.

But at the same time, the queen knew that no matter how tough she was, Lin Munian was not allowed to see Yuan Liwan in the future, it would only make Lin Munian's rebellious psychology more serious. Lin Munian will not listen to her obediently.

So after thinking about it again, the queen decided to explain this matter to the emperor and ask the emperor for help. asked the emperor to hold a banquet for the prince to choose a concubine on the grounds that 'the prince is not too young, and he is indeed at the age of marriage'. The selection of the crown princess and the invitation letter were all handed over to the queen.

When Lin Munian got the news and tried his best to oppose this banquet, it was too late. All the invitations have been sent, and the famous ladies who have not yet left the cabinet will also go to the banquet on time.

The resistance was fruitless, and Lin Munian could only accept all this. I sighed in my heart, 'Born in the emperor's family, if you can't help yourself'.

The matter of the banquet was handled by the queen. The women who have not left the cabinet in the families of the ministers in Beijing have also been invited, of course, Yuan Fangfei and Huo Xi'er also received the invitation letter, and everyone happily prepared the makeup and costumes for the banquet.

But what people didn't expect was that Yuan Liwan also received this invitation, but naturally she was not invited to participate in the selection of concubines. Instead, under the advantage of her status as Lin Munian's childhood sweetheart's cousin, she was invited to help her cousin's lifelong affairs.

How could Yuan Liwan not understand the queen's intentions? The last time she went to the palace with Huo Hengyao for a banquet, she gave Yuan Liwan a horse. This invitation is just to stimulate her and make her recognize her identity.

"I didn't have any thoughts about Lin Munian, since the queen has invited me so sincerely, then I might as well be respectful. Have fun with them. Yuan Liwan felt that this was a good opportunity to leave the Yuan Mansion. Besides, this kind of thing really can't be refused, otherwise the queen will think that I have a plot against Lin Munian even more.

Yuan Liwan simply packed her bags. Come to Gongsun's room and say goodbye to them.

"I heard that my mother was sick that day, so I came in a hurry, and I didn't bring a few changes of clothes. Now I have received a concubine selection banquet prepared by the queen for the crown prince, and I am asked to attend as a staff officer to help the prince's cousin give his opinion. So I have to go to the Hou Ye's Mansion and make a little preparation. Yuan Liwan explained what was going on like Gongsun and Yuan Zhen.

"Mother, are you better? I'm not here to supervise you to take your medicine on time, okay? Yuan Liwan pretended to be worried and asked Gongsun, thinking to herself, "Can't you let them find out that I already know the truth about pretending to be sick."

"Okay, okay, it's okay to go to the ground, you can go back with confidence, it's a big deal to participate in the banquet." The Gongsun clan wished that Yuan Liwan would leave quickly, how could they disagree.

"Then I'll go back first. Father, mother. ”
