Xie Xun discovered that every time something related to Fang Yirou happened, Meng Nianrui seemed particularly unkind.

He was troubled by Meng Nianrui's jealousy and fanciful thoughts, but he still patiently explained: "Didn't you understand? It's a fake marriage. I told you a long time ago that I always treated her as my own sister."

Meng Nianrui didn't believe a word of Fang Yirou's words. She said bluntly:

"Sister? Which man would marry his own sister? I have never seen such a scheming woman. I don't need to sacrifice my husband to solve the problem, and I don't need to beg her. Tell her to give up on this idea."

This time, Xie Xun was really angry. He felt that Meng Nianrui was too narrow-minded. He said angrily:

"You are totally unreasonable. You are still being petty at a time like this. Yirou is still trying to find a solution for you. How can you think of her like this? If you had half the generosity of Yirou, you wouldn't have made the relationship so awkward."

Seeing his disappointed expression, Meng Nianrui collapsed even more. She was so excited that she almost shouted hoarsely:

"Why do you believe everything she says? I'm just being petty. The worst that can happen is that I kneel down at the palace gate and beg His Majesty for mercy."

After hearing this, Xie Xun's face turned completely cold, and he angrily shouted: "This is simply nonsense!"

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and left.

The two of them parted on bad terms again. How many times has this happened?

Thinking of the tenderness and sweetness of the past, Meng Nianrui felt extremely sad.

Ever since Fang Yirou came, everything seems to have changed.

After the arranged marriage incident, the Fan family did another big thing.

In order to make it easier for Fan Bo to make the elixir of immortality, Emperor Qingyuan granted him a more spacious mansion, which could be said to be the largest in the capital.

Moving naturally requires a banquet to celebrate the occasion, and Fan Bo invited most of the officials in the capital. Given his current status, no one dared not to go.

Meng Nianrui and Xie Shuyao are also on the invitation list.

The moment she received the post, Xie Shuyao wanted to pack up and run away overnight, but she had finally thought of a way to spend the rest of her life in peace by snatching the Marquis' Mansion back from the Pei family, and she was unwilling to give up just like that.

The Hongmen Banquet, right? Let’s go!

If that doesn't work, she can just make peace with the Fan family. They won't make things difficult for a weak woman like her.

If they must take revenge on her, she would have no time to escape if she returned.

That day, just after Xie Shuyao left, a large group of people arrived.

When the people in the mansion saw this, they thought that the person who caused trouble last time had come again, so they all came forward with their weapons.

But when they saw the person coming, they were all stunned.

Some of them were so frightened as if they had seen a ghost that they almost lost their souls.

The man in front of me with a tall figure and a resolute face, isn’t he... Pei Jingyi?

Many people have seen Pei Jingyi's previous victory and triumphant return, riding a tall horse on the streets of the capital.

But didn’t Pei Jingyi die in the battle? How could he appear here?

It's broad daylight, you can't possibly see ghosts, especially so many at once.

While everyone was stunned, Bai Zhi behind Pei Jingyi stopped working.

As expected, he is the wild girl's servant and has no manners at all.

She immediately shouted, "What are you standing there for? Why don't you salute the general?"

After she said this, everyone reacted and knelt down to pay their respects.

"General Pei!"

"General Pei!"

Pei Jingyi didn't want to start a war, so he raised his hand and said, "No need to do that, just do what you need to do."

After he finished speaking, he walked straight into the backyard.

Jiang Dong looked around inside and outside, but didn't see Xie Shuyao, so he came back to report: "General, the lady is not here. She said she went to the family dinner of the Fan family."

As soon as the voice fell, Bai Zhi snorted coldly and said, "Really? Could it be that you are afraid and hide away?"
