The delicate cannon fodder is stunning, saving the male supporting role but getting teased instead
Chapter 221 Young General Male Supporting Role & Cannon Fodder Princess 06
Nangong Rongruo walked in front with a gentle manner, and Huo Yunting followed behind. He looked at the two people in front of him who were particularly well-matched, pursed his lips, and deliberately ignored the displeasure in his heart.
After all, in the eyes of outsiders, Wenrou was Huo Yunting's newlywed wife, but now she was so familiar with other men, which would make anyone uncomfortable. Huo Yunting comforted himself in this way.
The seat Nangong Rongruo had prepared for Wenrou was indeed excellent, offering a panoramic view of the Nanhu Lake. The Crown Prince had already been seated there, leisurely sipping tea. Besides the Crown Prince, there was another man sitting there as well.
"Brother Crown Prince, Brother Three." Wenrou called out softly when she saw the two of them. It turned out that the other man was the Third Prince.
The Third Prince was also very handsome. He nodded, exchanged a few pleasantries with Wen Rou, and then stopped talking. The Third Prince was born to a maid and was not favored in the palace. Fortunately, the Crown Prince was kind and took good care of the Third Prince, allowing him to survive in the cannibalistic palace.
It can be said that Wenrou and the Third Prince were both poor little creatures cared for by the Crown Prince. If there were no Crown Prince, their lives in the palace would be much more miserable.
The so-called poetry banquet was actually just young men and women appreciating the scenery and comparing poems. Wenrou was not interested in these things, so she was bored and spent her time eating snacks in the pavilion.
Although Wenrou was not interested in this, the young men who were competing in poetry were particularly interested in her. The poetry competition was in front of the pavilion they built, and several young men had already secretly watched Wenrou under the pretext of competing in poetry.
After all, Princess Roujia does not often appear in public, and when the young masters of aristocratic families suddenly see such a handsome young man, they will naturally look at her curiously.
Everyone in the pavilion noticed this. The prince looked at Wenrou and couldn't help but teasing her, "I usually ask you to go out of the palace and meet more people, but you don't want to. Today I'm afraid I'm going to make up for what I didn't see before."
Upon hearing this, the Third Prince couldn't help but say, "Only at Rong Ruo's birthday party can I see you. Come to think of it, I thought Rong Ruo would be able to hide you from the palace to his mansion once he came of age, but I didn't expect Rong Ruo to be a step too late."
After saying that, the Third Prince looked at Nangong Rongruo teasingly. Nangong Rongruo smiled, put his fan to his mouth, and teased: "How do you know that I didn't ask for marriage from our Rourou? Alas, it's a pity that Rourou doesn't like this kind of me."
Wenrou gently pushed Nangong Rongruo, turned to the prince and said, "Brother Prince, please take care of him."
Huo Yunting sat aside, listening to their conversation, and couldn't help but pursed his lips. He looked at Nangong Rongruo inconspicuously, wondering in his heart, is the sweetheart Wenrou was talking about this Young Master Rongruo?
It's undeniable that Young Master Rong Ruo is indeed handsome, and he matches the gentleness beside him very well. The uncomfortable feeling from before became more obvious. Huo Yunting couldn't help but stand up and said, "I'm going out for a walk."
The people talking in the pavilion were stunned. Huo Yunting bowed and left the pavilion. Nangong Rongruo smiled and said, "This young general you've chosen is a very honest boy, but I heard he has a sweetheart. Are you doing well in the general's mansion?"
Upon hearing this, the prince also looked at Wenrou. He actually wanted to care about his sister when he was in the palace before, but with Huo Yunting beside him, he didn't dare to ask too much.
Wenrou sighed, holding her chin and said, "Everyone in the General's Mansion treated me very well. But to be honest, it was me who forced this marriage. I have already made an agreement with General Huo that when the marriage is no longer necessary, I will divorce him."
Upon hearing this, Nangong Rongruo smiled and said, "That's perfect. Then you can marry directly into my Prime Minister's Mansion, which is no worse than a general's mansion." Nangong Rongruo is the Prime Minister's youngest son, and his status is no worse than Huo Yunting.
Upon hearing this, the prince glanced at Nangong Rongruo and pursed his lips: "Rongruo, please don't tease Rourou anymore."
Nangong Rongruo smiled happily, with a glittering light in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Liu Ruyi saw Huo Yunting walking out of the pavilion and quickly followed him. When they were alone, she called out, "Yunting."
Huo Yunting turned around and saw that it was Liu Ruyi, and hurriedly went to greet her: "Ruyi, why are you out? Is someone bullying you?"
Liu Ruyi lowered her head, her voice trembling as she spoke softly, "Yun Ting, don't ask anymore. Now that you've married, it's not appropriate for you to meddle in my affairs."
Huo Yunting frowned and said, "Who bullied you? The princess is very kind. If she knew, she would definitely help you."
Liu Ruyi choked and couldn't help biting her lip. She didn't understand why Huo Yunting trusted the princess so much now. She had secretly put the handkerchief there last time and had just shown herself to be very close to Huo Yunting at the door, just to anger the princess and let Huo Yunting know that the princess was not a good person. However, she didn't expect Princess Roujia to be so tolerant and had no reaction both times.
Liu Ruyi lowered her eyes to hide her emotions, and then said dejectedly: "My stepmother has been looking for someone for me recently. I heard that she has taken a fancy to Lord Zhang and wants me to marry him as his second wife." In fact, Liu Ruyi's stepmother had not even bothered to find a partner for her. She said this just to force Huo Yunting to divorce her and marry her as his legal wife.
Huo Yunting was an official in the imperial court, so of course he knew Lord Zhang. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and said in surprise, "Lord Zhang is a generation older than you and has several children. How could your legitimate mother be so cruel?"
Liu Ruyi wiped away her nonexistent tears with a handkerchief, then said in a trembling voice, "She is my legitimate mother, so she can naturally decide my marriage. Besides, I am injured and cannot have children, so I can only be someone else's second wife."
Huo Yunting couldn't help but feel even more guilty when he heard this. If he had been able to help Liu Ruyi before, but now he has a wife and Liu Ruyi doesn't want to be a concubine.
Huo Yunting did not tell Wenrou that she agreed to the divorce. On the one hand, the princess's divorce was not that simple. On the other hand, if he told others about it, people would know that the princess married him to avoid the marriage, which would not be a good thing for Wenrou. Instead, it would ruin her reputation.
So Huo Yunting scratched his hair in annoyance, feeling very embarrassed.
Seeing that Huo Yunting still refused to marry her, Liu Ruyi gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with resentment. Since he didn't like the princess, why couldn't they just divorce? With the Huo family's status in the court, they could definitely stand up and oppose this marriage.
"Yun Ting, what are you talking about?" At this time, a gentle female voice came. It turned out that Wenrou saw that Huo Yunting had not returned for a long time, so she came out to look for him.
When Huo Yunting saw Wenrou, he remembered his promise to her not to meet Liu Ruyi alone, so he suddenly felt a little guilty. He touched his nose and quickly explained, "I was out for a walk and happened to run into Ruyi."
