Quickly wear a child, the villain is more favored, who wants the male protagonist?

Liu Ruolan was surprised. It was already the middle of the night, why was Fei Zhen still thinking about going back? If she just left like that, all her efforts would be in vain. This wouldn't do!

Her goal was to make Xia Xizhi's tigress-like mother angry tomorrow, and then Fei Zhen would transfer this anger to Xia Xizhi.

She knew Fei Zhen too well. He appeared kind but was actually vindictive. In addition, he was very concerned about his image. If he was scolded like this, he would definitely take revenge on Xia Xizhi. Then, her wish to make Xia Xizhi completely infertile would come true.

Liu Ruolan's eyes turned, and she rushed to Fei Zhen, hugged his thighs, rubbed her chest against his thighs, and her delicate tone was full of seduction.

"Brother Pei, don't leave. Stay with Ruolan tonight, okay~~"

Fei Zhen suppressed her restlessness, gently pushed Liu Ruolan aside, and continued to dress, "Ruolan, today is the day to return home. It would be inappropriate for me not to go back."

"No, brother Fei, please stay and keep me company~~" Liu Ruolan pulled his clothes and refused to let him wear them, twisting her body and acting coquettishly.

Fei Zhen was a little unhappy. He didn't like anyone using any means to coerce him.

"Ruolan, you should be sensible. Today is the night of returning home. If I don't go back, it won't be a problem for Xia Xizhi, but it will make General Xia and his wife unhappy."

Liu Ruolan had never seen Fei Zhen so serious before, and she knew she couldn't act like a spoiled brat anymore.

But she absolutely couldn't let Fei Zhen go...

Liu Ruolan's eyes changed, and then she bit her lip, tears suddenly bursting out, "I'm sorry, Brother Fei, it's Ruolan's fault. Ruolan is just, just too afraid of losing you."

"When Xizhi returned home, Ruolan thought about how if I got married, I would have no home to return to... I, I'm just, I'm just too afraid of losing you, Brother Fei... Woo woo woo, otherwise, I'd better go back to the Jiaofangsi.

Being together for a lifetime is just my extravagant hope... "Liu Ruolan covered her face and sobbed.

Fei Zhen suddenly felt distressed. Ruolan was once the most talented woman in the imperial city. She must have been so desperate at that time because of her father's involvement and ended up in the Music Bureau.

Forget it, Xia Xizhi has everything, so it doesn't matter if she comes back to visit her parents-in-law. He will just stay here to accompany Ruolan, and he can go to pick up Xizhi early tomorrow.

"Ruolan, I'm sorry. My tone was a little harsh just now. I'll stay with you."

"Really?" Liu Ruolan raised her head, tears still in her eyes, and her face was full of joy.

Fei Zhen nodded, "Really."

"Brother Fei, you are so nice!" Liu Ruolan threw herself into Fei Zhen's arms with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

But Fei Zhen, who agreed to stay, slept with Liu Ruolan in her arms. Xia Xizhi's lively eyes and her shy words, "I'll wait for you to come back to sleep," kept appearing in her mind, so Fei Zhen didn't sleep well the whole night.

The next morning, I got up early and got dressed before dawn.

"Brother Fei, why are you up so early? Why don't you rest for a while?" Liu Ruolan deliberately seduced Fei Zhen, holding his thigh and dragging him away.

"Ruolan, stop making trouble. I have to go this time. If I don't go there early, it will be impolite." Fei Zhen refused directly.

But Liu Ruolan would not let him go easily. She wanted to drag him until noon.

Then she acted like a spoiled child and pretended to be sick, but it was of no use. Instead, it made Fei Zhen, who hadn't slept well to begin with, a little impatient.

"If you are sick, let Bizhu call a doctor for you." After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving Liu Ruolan stomping her feet in the room and sulking.

Fei Zhen has really changed. He seemed absent-minded last night. It seems Xia Xizhi must have used some tricks...

It doesn't matter. There will be a flower viewing banquet at the Prime Minister's Mansion soon. Then she will let Fei Zhen see that Xia Xizhi is just a dull and stupid fool, and she, Liu Ruolan, is the one who is worthy of him!

When Fei Zhen returned to the general's mansion, it was just dawn and Xia Xizhi was still asleep.

"Husband, you're back?" Xia Xizhi's long black hair spread out like a waterfall, and a few strands of hair outlined her cheeks, adding a bit of charm to her delicate little face.

In addition, she was sleepy, spoke with a nasal tone, and was only wearing a middle-length dress. Because of sleeping, the collar was shifted, revealing her beautiful shoulders and neck. Fei Zhen hurriedly looked away.

Xia Xizhi felt the change in Fei Zhen's eyes and curled his lips.

In the original plot, he didn't come back until noon. It seems that her intentional or unintentional seduction in the past two days has paid off.

"My dear husband, I waited for you very late, and I thought you would come back last night... Are you in trouble? Is there anything I can help you with? I don't have anything else, but I have a lot of money, and I can give it all to you, my dear husband."

Xia Xizhi's concern and generosity, his complete consideration for Fei Zhen, formed a sharp contrast with Liu Ruolan.

Fei Zhen paused, feeling guilty and not daring to say more. Suddenly, she felt even more sorry for Xia Xizhi and avoided the topic.

"Ahem, it's okay, it's already been resolved. If you're sleepy, just sleep a little longer. I'm going to practice swordplay outside."

......

After breakfast, Fei Zhen took Xia Xizhi away. Before getting into the sedan chair, Xia Xizhi pretended to be shy and took Fei Zhen's hand. Fei Zhen's body stiffened, but he still didn't let go.

Cang Yu, who had been guarding in the dark, felt a little distressed when he saw Xia Xizhi's back. The Marquis had been with that Liu Ruolan the whole night, and it was the Madam who rescued Liu Ruolan from the brothel.

If she knew the truth, she would be so sad...

a few days later.

Flower viewing banquet at the Prime Minister's residence.

The flower banquet invited almost all the ladies and young ladies in the imperial city, as well as the young masters of noble families.

This banquet was not only for viewing flowers, but also invited the most popular young men from aristocratic families and scholars who were about to take part in the autumn examination.

Prime Minister Zhu was presiding over this autumn examination and he was the chief examiner, so all the candidates flocked to it, and those who were not invited wanted to use their connections to participate.

Because if you can understand the examiner's preferences, you can write the article in a targeted manner. This is actually a very important part of the exam. Otherwise, if you hit the point that the examiner doesn't like, you won't get a very good score even if you are talented.

Fei Ze was also invited, but his clothes were shabby, he had no money, and he was a bastard. In the original plot, he was humiliated by a group of young masters from aristocratic families at this banquet.

Xia Xizhi asked Lvliu to give Fei Ze a set of clothes, boots, and a jade hairpin.

Fei Ze was completely taken aback. After a pause, he quickly thanked her and personally went to Xia Xizhi's courtyard with Lvliu to express his gratitude. "Thank you, sister-in-law."

After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes and was stunned when she saw Xia Xizhi's makeup today.

Xia Xizhi wore a deep blue cloud-mist brocade skirt with a gradually blooming peony pattern embroidered with gold and silver threads on the skirt. The cuffs and neckline were embroidered with delicate dark patterns that would outline colorful light in the sunlight. The dress was dignified, elegant and noble.

She only wore a jade hairpin with kingfisher feathers on her head to tie up her hair, which added a touch of low-key and casualness to her noble image.

Xia Xizhi smiled and waved his hand, "You're welcome, I told you this is my investment."

Fei Ze's ears flushed slightly, and he also smiled, "Then I will definitely not let my sister-in-law's investment fail."

"I believe you, sister-in-law. I inherited my mother's business acumen. The person I like will definitely not be bad." Xia Xizhi smiled and blinked.

"Okay, go get ready, otherwise you will miss the banquet. I also have something to do and need to leave." Xia Xizhi said and walked out.

Fei Ze looked at Xia Xizhi's back with deep eyes.

Xia Xizhi had just walked a short distance when Fei Shuixin caught up with her. "Sister-in-law, did you get the time wrong? The banquet at the Prime Minister's Mansion is still a long time away. Let's go back and rest for a while."

Xia Xizhi knew clearly that Fei Shuixin would definitely plunder her clothes and jewelry in order to attend the banquet.

She left early on purpose. She had been avoiding her for the past two days so that she didn't get to see Zhao Qiufeng. So Fei Shuixin must be anxious today and would definitely come to find her early in the morning.

"I remember the time correctly, sister-in-law, I have to go back to my parents' home. There is something urgent. Shui Xin, I won't talk to you for now. Sister-in-law is anxious."

Xia Xizhi let go of Fei Shuixin's arm and hurried out.

Fei Shui was anxious and angry, but there was nothing he could do. Looking at Xia Xi's beautiful clothes, he was envious and jealous.

"Hmph, what's the point of dressing nicely? She's just a idiot who can't do anything. This banquet will be a disgrace to her!"

Fei Shuixin hummed and turned away.

Fei Ze, who was at the corner, saw the scene clearly and frowned slightly.
