The Sixth Princess took a sip of tea and told everyone what she had guessed. When she found that everyone was staring at her, she realized that she seemed to be a little too excited.
"I knew you two had a more than ordinary relationship," Qin Qianqian looked at the Sixth Princess ambiguously. "You're so angry because you have him in your heart, that's why you care about him."
"I don't."
The Sixth Princess said stubbornly, "I just can't stand him using my money to support other women."
[A man in red keeps a woman? That shouldn't be the case. Never mind. It's fun anyway, so just watch it.]
"Okay, okay," Qin Qianqian stopped harping on her feelings and said, "So you called us here just to tell us about this?"
The Sixth Princess nodded, then shook her head.
"You stay up with me tonight. I want to catch you in adultery."
Several people were at a loss for words. Mu Xue said softly, "Why don't we check it out first? It would be so embarrassing if we got it wrong."
"It's okay," the Sixth Princess had been feeling this way for a long time, and she didn't want to endure it any longer.
…
As dusk fell, the group had dinner together.
So they sat there chatting and waiting to catch the adulterer later.
"Luo'er, why don't you go to bed first?"
Yu Yiluo shook her head, "I'm not sleepy."
【Just watching the fun, I'm really excited. 】
He sat there until midnight.
Seeing that it was almost time, the Sixth Princess stood up and said, "It's time to come now."
A few people followed the Sixth Princess helplessly and headed towards the Red Courtyard.
When I walked to the gate of the yard, I saw that the light in the red-dressed room was still on.
The Sixth Princess lowered her voice and said, "Let's be quiet and go over and take a look."
When they tiptoed to the red window and put their ears against the wall, they heard a sound coming from inside.
"It sounds like the sound of poetry being recited."
Qin Qianqian whispered, "It seems that she is a talented woman who likes poetry."
The Sixth Princess's face flushed red with anger, and the string of rationality in her mind completely broke.
She stood up suddenly, walked towards the door and kicked it open.
A few people reacted and quickly stood up to follow the Sixth Princess.
Before the woman in red in the room could figure out what was going on, the Sixth Princess walked in angrily, looking at her with cold eyes.
"Princess, what's wrong?"
The Sixth Princess said nothing, her eyes searching the room.
"Can't sleep? Want to talk to someone?"
The woman in red stood up good-temperedly and walked to the Sixth Princess. "Come on, I'll go for a walk with you."
"Were you talking to the girl just now?"
"Girl?" Hongyi was stunned by her question, and asked in a helpless tone, "Where did the girl come from?"
I heard everything." Seeing him still laughing, the Sixth Princess became even more angry and pushed him away. "You're still reciting poetry to people? Call them out quickly."
"There really isn't any girl," Hongyi explained patiently, "I'm up so late, I'm reading a book."
He walked to the table, picked up the book and walked in front of the Sixth Princess.
"See, I didn't lie to you."
"Are you sneaky while reading?"
The Sixth Princess glanced at the book in his hand doubtfully, still without a smile on her face.
The man in red also reacted at this time. He chuckled and took two steps towards the Sixth Princess.
"Could it be that the princess thought I was having a tryst with a woman and so she broke into the house in anger?"
The mocking tone in the voice was obvious, and the Sixth Princess moved away from him.
"Who told you to be sneaky? What's going on?"
"I'm reading to prepare for the imperial examination," the Sixth Princess raised her eyes to meet the smiling eyes of the man in red, waiting for his next words.
As a result, Hongyi changed the subject and said in a cheerful voice, "Princess, I'm happy that you're jealous."
"I don't have any."
The Sixth Princess turned her eyes away and didn't look at the person in red.
"I originally wanted to express my feelings to the princess after I passed the imperial examination. That way, if the princess really liked me, I would be eligible to marry her."
"So that's how it is," the Sixth Princess said, a little embarrassed. "Then continue."
She turned around and tried to leave, but Hongyi grabbed her hand and said seriously, "Princess, if I win the first place, will you accept my feelings?"
The Sixth Princess rarely saw him so serious, so she coughed lightly.
"Let me go first."
Red released her hand and continued, "I'm serious. Ever since I first bumped into the princess's carriage, I've wanted to marry the princess."
"Hit the carriage?"
The Sixth Princess' eyes widened. "That person was you, and you blackmailed me."
No wonder she felt familiar with the man in red when she saw his true face later, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him.
"I thought the princess was cute and wanted to have a relationship with her, so I accepted the money."
"So you serving as my bodyguard was intentional?"
Red smiled, "Yes, so Princess, are you willing to give me a chance?"
"Let's talk about it after you get the top spot."
"Can we go back to bed now?"
Qin Qianqian saw that the two were almost ready and spoke.
When the voice rang out, the Sixth Princess finally remembered the people who came with her. She looked embarrassed when she saw their teasing looks.
"Go back and rest."
The man in red looked at the Sixth Princess's departing back, picked up a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his palms caused by nervousness, and patted his chest with his hand.
It worked. The princess didn't hate him, she liked him too.
Next he should work hard to get the top spot and marry the princess.
While the girl in red was still giggling, the Sixth Princess came back and poked her head out of the door.
"Red."
The girl in red came back to her senses and saw the pretty smile of the Sixth Princess at the door.
"Come on, you will succeed."
After she said this, she considerately helped him close the door and left.
Hongyi walked quickly to the window, opened it from the inside and stuck her head out.
"Princess."
The Sixth Princess stopped and turned to look at him, "What's wrong?"
In the night, the red-clothed man's eyes looked like stars. He said nervously:
"Princess, am I dreaming?"
The Sixth Princess was amused by his silly look. She walked to the window, stood on tiptoe, raised her hand, pinched his face, and blinked.
"What now?"
Hongyi raised her hand and placed it on the back of her hand. "I'm glad I'm not dreaming."
