Both worlds are like dreams

He sighed silently, "Then do you know why they are targeting you?"

Xue Huang thought for a moment and said, "Those daughters of noble families are probably curious, but I think the main reason is because of Brother Qinglan."

She smiled heartlessly. As the most handsome young master in Shangyang City, Gu Qinglan was a man of both literary and martial talents. There must be many women from aristocratic families who loved him and wanted to marry him. But due to her relationship with Gu Qinglan, these women from aristocratic families would definitely want to meet her. Even if she didn't go to the flower viewing party, they would probably find other excuses to meet her later.

Wei Yunzhou did not comment, but continued to ask: "Then why do you think Concubine Rong did this?"

Xue Huang turned the teacup around, "I don't quite understand this, but she was very polite to me."

"She wants you to be the second prince's principal wife." Wei Yunzhou said lightly.

Xue Huang was startled, and the cup in her hand snapped into two pieces. She quickly let go of her hand, and several red marks immediately appeared on her white and tender fingers.

Yun Qing immediately stepped forward and took out a handkerchief to wipe her, "Young Master, are you okay?"

Xue Huang shook her head and looked at Wei Yunzhou and said, "Second Uncle, please don't make jokes like this, okay?" When she heard it from Mo Xingyue before, she thought it was nonsense, but when she heard it from Wei Yunzhou, it was basically the truth.

But Mo Zhenyu has already been engaged to Ye Xun, and they will be getting married in a few days. If he cancels the engagement now, will he still be able to save the royal family's reputation?

Wei Yunzhou said, "Empress Rong seems to be aloof from the world, but she is quite resourceful in the harem. However, this time she acted alone, and she wanted to test you. Although Mo Zhenyu wanted to win you over, he didn't want to do it this way. First, the Ye family has supported him a lot, and he doesn't want to disappoint them. Second, using this method to win you over is nothing more than making a deal. He knows in his heart that this way he will have no room for maneuver."

Xue Huang shrugged her shoulders. "I think the Second Prince is a pretty good person. Although he is smooth in his dealings, his methods are not cruel. The competition between him and the Fifth Brother has always been fair."

"As an elder brother, he has been fair, but as a prince, his future is unknown."

Xue Huang knew that the struggle for imperial power had always been cruel. He and Mo Yiming were able to live in harmony and unite against the outside world because of the threat of a third party, and this force was stronger than the combination of him and Mo Ruilin. But if there were only Mo Ruilin and him on the road to the struggle for imperial power, perhaps it would be a different scene.

However, if there were only two people competing, Mo Ruilin would definitely be the one who took the initiative to withdraw.

"As for the Third Prince," Xue Huang rolled her eyes, "He's just an idiot."

Wei Yunzhou snorted coldly, "He deserved to be beaten by you."

Xue Huang smiled, and suddenly thought of something, "Second Uncle, are you worried about me?" She was a little surprised that Wei Yunzhou, who was always resolute and would only argue with her on weekdays, was actually talking more today? He was actually so patient to accompany her to analyze these things.

Wei Yunzhou glanced at her indifferently, "Don't think too much. I don't want you to hold me back."

"Second Uncle, you are just hard on the outside but soft on the inside. Don't I know you?"

Wei Yunzhou gave her a glare, and Xue Huang immediately stopped talking. After all, in front of his subordinates, she had to give some face to her aloof second uncle.

After Yun Qing cleaned up the tea table, he and Zhuo Yang tactfully left. As for the personal image of the sect leader, they all turned a deaf ear to it.

After a moment of silence, Wei Yunzhou spoke again, "How about a battle with Mo Yunchen?"

"He can't beat me. But he's playing dirty. I clearly told him that if he loses he has to swim back to his palace from here, but he refuses to admit it."

Wei Yunzhou looked solemn. "Although this person is under the protection of Shen Congfeng, he is arrogant and cunning by nature. He always has his own plans. You must be careful when you come into contact with him."

"He has always had his own plans, such as hunting me down, and Shen Congfeng doesn't seem to know about it."

"There is no way we are on the same path as him."

"Don't worry, Second Uncle," Xue Huang smiled, "Just because he severely injured you and Brother Qinglan three years ago, I will never forgive him."

Wei Yunzhou looked at her, thinking about what he had discovered about Mo Yunchen's art of refining poisons, as well as the truth behind the massacre of the Beiyuan royal family. Was his relentless pursuit of Xue Huang related to these two things?

Seeing that he was absent-minded, Xue Huang waved her hand in front of his eyes, "Second Uncle?"

"Most of the people in your house now are from the Shanhe Sect. They can be trusted."

"I was just about to tell you about this." Xue Huang poured him a cup of tea. "I don't need anyone to take care of me. Please let Yun Qing go back."

Wei Yunzhou knew that Xue Huang probably didn't want the incident three years ago to happen again, so he said, "Yun Qing's martial arts are comparable to Luo Ning's, so you don't have to worry about that. Moreover, these people are well-trained and have enough ability to deal with emergencies."

"Uncle, you really don't have to arrange everything for me. I can handle it myself."

Xue Huang smiled faintly. Wei Yunzhou always looked cold, but he always cared about the people around him in his own way. They had spent so many years together in Guigu, how could she not understand her second uncle? He was worried about her.

Wei Yunzhou looked at Xue Huang's innocent smile, so pure and ignorant of the world. It's not that she hasn't grown up, but she has hidden all the pain in her heart, bringing them only innocence and laughter. She is also protecting everyone around her in her own way. He sighed and said something that he thought was corny for the first time, "Since you have decided to sympathize, let's bear the wind and rain together."

"Okay!" Xue Huang smiled. "Since you rarely speak so gently, I will listen to you."

Wei Yunzhou put down the teacup he had picked up and looked at Xue Huang coldly, "Watch your wording."

"I was wrong." Xue Huang stood up and pulled up his sleeve. "It's time for dinner. I'm hungry. Come eat with me!"

Wei Yunzhou frowned. He was a grown-up, not a child anymore. He still needed someone to accompany him to eat. "Go by yourself!"

"No!" She shook her head, "It's boring to eat alone!"

"let go!"

"No!"

Wei Yunzhou frowned, "Let go!"

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"It has nothing to do with you!"

"I hate hearing you say these four words the most."

Wei Yunzhou was speechless, "Eat!"

"Okay!" Xuehuang immediately asked someone to serve the dishes and a pot of good wine.
