After Morong Gan fell asleep, he turned out the rest of the lamps and quietly left the room.
Putting down the tent flap, it formed a small world of its own. In the dim light, Morong Gan stared at the tent in a daze as many things flashed past his mind, making him unable to sleep.
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps could be heard, he could tell that it was not Lv He, nor was it Qi Hong. Other than that, there was only one other person.
He sat up, turned on the light, took the robe, put it on, and came out of the tent.
The moment Huangfu Zhuer entered the room, she saw Morong Gan who was standing next to the bed, and couldn't help but become flustered, "Third Brother, you, why aren't you asleep yet?"
Morong Gan didn't say anything, he only sized her up. She was wearing a beaded cape, his body thin and slender, and his two hands held tightly onto the cape's straps, tightly wrapping himself in it. He hesitated for a moment, but still slowly moved closer to him.
Morong Gan shifted his gaze onto her face, "It's so late, why are you looking for me?"
Huangfu Zhuer lowered her eyes. In the dim yellow light, her face slowly flushed red, even the neck that was exposed to him was also red. She did not make a sound, and gently untied the belt on her cape.
However, she thought that Morong Gan must be willing to do it. He really liked her, to the point where he even handed over his military authority to protect her life. They had known each other for a long time, but they had never come this far, and she thought he would be so happy that he would take her hand and lead her to bed.
But after a while, the man in his line of sight did not react at all. She felt that it was strange, he quietly raised his eyes, but Morong Gan did not have the excitement and joy that she had imagined. He only calmly looked at her, and spoke in a calm voice, "Zhu'er, what are you doing?"
She was so embarrassed that she was on the verge of tears. She stuttered, "I, I thought, you'd be happy. I'm not, I …"
"Go back," he interrupted her. "We are not married yet, and I will not let you follow me like this for no reason at all. This is unfair to you."
"Then, when will we … when? I mean …"
Morong Gan picked up the cloak on the ground and helped her tie it back up, "Zhu'er, although Royal Brother said that he wouldn't touch you, he won't allow me to marry you in broad daylight. He patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. Go back and rest."
Huangfu Zhuer lowered her head and gritted her teeth, not daring to look at him. She turned and walked out quickly, she did not expect this outcome, where all kinds of emotions mixed together.
It just so happened that Lv He picked the curtain and came in. Seeing her like this, and sizing her up once more, she understood in her heart, and revealed an undisguised look of contempt.
Huangfu Zhuer was so embarrassed that she wanted to die, how could she still have the courage to bicker with him?
Lv He walked to the door and peeked through the curtain. Morong Gan was sitting on the side of the bed, staring blankly into the void, she shook his head, then quietly went next door to tell Qi Hong the big news.
"Guess what I saw?" She curled her lips and laughed in disdain: "That shameless Huangfu Zhuer actually went up to this grandpa and recommended himself to the pillow, in the end, he was rejected mercilessly by this grandpa and he ran away like a stray dog."
Qi Hong was surprised, "It can't be, Miss Huangfu doesn't look like that kind of person!"
"Why wouldn't it be? I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be fake?" What about the daughter of Grand Scholar Palace? Don't you have any shame, didn't we still have a daughter from the Grand Scholar Palace in our backyard?
Qi Hong said, "Alright, don't be angry, it's not like we did not succeed, our master is not a casual person."
"This grandpa isn't so casual with others, but with wangfei …" Lv He covered his mouth and laughed, "He must still be thinking about Princess Hua-Yang. Otherwise, how come there's no reaction when his beloved fiancee is in front of him?" After saying that, she suddenly thought of something, "No, I have to go back and defend, if by any chance Huangfu Zhuer goes back and I can't hold him back." With that, he hurriedly left.
Morong Gan was stunned for a long while before he regained his senses. He had never felt that such a long time had passed, and it was probably because too many things happened today.
Early in the morning, she went to the East Suburb Reservoir, then sent Bai Qianfan off. At noon, she went to the Imperial Palace, where she was given the authority to be drunk with the Emperor.
The pieces, one by one, kept spinning around in his mind, clear and vague, but in any case, he could not turn his head or turn his head, he was waiting for someone, someone he missed so much and feared to see.

At this moment, Bai Qianfan was still awake, looking at the hourglass on the table non-stop. The laurel was sitting on a chair, tossing a few large eggs around as she played. Yue Xiang could not take it anymore, her eyelids drooping from time to time, as she was woken up by the laurel. "Don't sleep, the bet has not been decided, you have to be a witness."
Yue Xiang rubbed her eyes and asked Bai Qianfan, "Princess, how much longer do we have to wait?"
Bai Qianfan tiptoed and looked out the window, saying, "It's about time, let's go."
Thus, the three of them gently opened the door, shrunk their bodies and sneakily walked along the wall towards the courtyard door. Yue Xiang and Yue Guiyi pushed and pulled at the door, trying their best not to make any noise, and slowly pulled the heavy door lock apart. Bai Qianfan pushed lightly against the door, and the wooden door made a very small sound.
It was dark all around. With the help of the moonlight, they could clearly distinguish the direction. The three of them headed towards the tilted tree by the side of the road. The laurel even found time to whisper, "Look, there's no one here, right?"
As soon as she finished speaking, two ghost-like figures suddenly appeared in front of them. One of them spoke up. "Where is the wangfei going so late?"
Bai Qianfan stood up straight and sighed, it was good that she appeared, if she did not, she would really be gone!
She stared at them. "Who are you? Why did you have to come at my door, quickly, or else I will be rude to you! "
Yue Xiang looked at her like she was an idiot. She didn't understand where her threat came from. On their side, there were three weak women and two tall and sturdy men on the other side. What if it was a criminal?
However, the two of them were very respectful and respectful to Bai Qianfan. "Royal Concubine, don't be afraid, we are the personal guards of the Prince Chu.
"Is there anyone else besides you?"
The one who spoke was someone who had participated in the battle at the alley of the poplar tree and admired Princess Chu, who had been caught in a chaotic battle and had not been thrown into a panic. When she asked, he obediently called his over, "In reply to Princess Wang, other than us, there are two other people.
Only then did Bai Qianfan chuckle at the laurel and reached out her hand, "See that? I won, give me the money."
Yue Gui was a straightforward person and was willing to admit defeat. She slapped the few sons in her hands onto Bai Qianfan's hands and said, "Princess Wangfei really has the Fiery Eyes of Truth."
