Chapter 705 The Second Miss's Plan
This is a side hall. There are several plum blossoms blooming in front of the courtyard. The branches of the plum trees and the night sky obscure the specific appearance and figure of the two people, and outsiders cannot see them.
Xuanyuan Huili was wearing a dress made of moon-shadow satin, looking like a fairy concubine descending from Guanghan Palace. The hem and cuffs of her skirt were decorated with plum blossom patterns. Coupled with her gentle and quiet appearance of a young lady from a wealthy family, she really had the temperament of a fairy from the plum blossom.
But the words that came out of that cherry-like mouth made people frown.
Zhao Yunxuan didn't look at her, but instead fixed his gaze on the tree trunk in the distance. He said calmly, "Is it inappropriate for Second Miss Xuanyuan to stop me?"
He was about to leave when he was grabbed by the sleeve. It turned out that Xuanyuan Huili had "accidentally" fallen.
She stood up in confusion and said, "Yes, I'm sorry. I just spoke out of desperation. I only spoke out to remind you because I saw that Mr. Zhao and Sister Xin'er seemed too close at the banquet."
Zhao Yunxuan smoothed his wrinkled sleeves: "Do you know her?"
Unexpectedly, Xuanyuan Huili's eyes flashed slightly. After briefly introducing her identity, she said that she had always admired Zhao Yunxuan, and said that she had a way to help him get Hu Xiner!
"Why do I want to get..." Zhao Yunxuan paused, as if he didn't know how to organize his words, "Why do I want to get Miss Hu?"
Xuanyuan Huili lowered her head and smiled slightly: "Madam Lu is already pregnant, but you are acting intimately with her and don't even call her Madam Lu. You can hide your thoughts from others, but not from me."
Zhao Yunxuan showed a puzzled expression.
Behind the big rock that neither of them noticed, two figures were sneaking around.
Mu Qing, holding onto the boulder with one hand, heard this and said in a voice transmission, "Xin'er, look, Zhao Yunxuan clearly has ill intentions towards you. Even outsiders can see it."
"I think Mr. Zhao is peeling shrimps for me to please me just because he needs me to recuperate." Hu Xiner rolled her eyes and didn't believe it at all.
Although Young Master Zhao has been practicing in the mountains since he was a child, he is still a rich and noble young man and a Buddhist monk. How could he be so idle that he would fall in love with a little peasant girl like her?
Don't tell her about past lives, love at first sight, and fate! If there really was a bond from a past life, why didn't she fall in love with Zhao Yunxuan at first sight?
Mu Qing liked her because they had gone through many difficulties together; Yin Li liked her, perhaps simply because her good painting skills aroused his interest, and he had a bad temper and had not been in a relationship for many years, which made him a big otaku, so he was hungry and would eat anything.
But this Zhao Yunxuan... even his back exudes the aura of a high-level monk who is about to ascend to heaven.
Thinking of the scene of him wearing wedding clothes, Hu Xiner felt that it was a blasphemy to his temperament and could not bear to look at it.
Amitabha, Amitabha, she has no chance to enjoy this kind of "Buddhist" man, no matter how handsome he is.
Zhao Yunxuan finally looked Xuanyuan Huili in the eye, but did not argue with her. Perhaps he felt that arguing with such a person was pointless.
He tried to leave but was stopped again. He could only ask, "What does this have to do with you?"
Seeing that he didn't deny it right away, Xuanyuan Huili became more certain of her suspicions. She then smiled smugly and said, "I have a way for you to get Hu Xin'er! As far as I know, Hu Xin'er's current engagement is with the eldest son of the Lu family, but she's actually marrying..."
No one expected that the second young lady would actually learn the truth about the two Lu brothers.
Behind the big rock, the couple's expressions became solemn.
The identities of the Lu brothers were only known to those who had stayed in the Liu family courtyard at that time. The second young lady could only have heard about it from her father.
Although it is not known whether Duke Xuanyuan revealed it intentionally or accidentally let it slip, it is ultimately a disaster to let someone as troublesome as Xuanyuan Huili know this secret.
"It seems that the marriage contract must be dealt with as soon as possible." Hu Xiner conveyed the message to her husband very seriously.
Mu Qing nodded seriously, and his eyebrows softened in an instant, not knowing what he was thinking about.
He seemed to hesitate for a moment, and when Hu Xin'er looked at the two people under the plum tree again, he whispered in her ear with a smile: "How about we have a wedding after we set up our own business?"
At that time, he lost his memory and really thought he was Lu Yunjue, so he married Hu Xiner in the name of someone else.
Now I finally have the opportunity to make up for this regret.
The warm breath spread to the delicate skin of her ears, and Hu Xin'er shuddered. She couldn't help but turn her head and said angrily, "Are you going to die? Why are you getting so close? What if someone finds us?"
Mu Qing smiled and said, "For things like weddings, the bigger the grandeur, the better."
He would have loved to repeat the wedding in front of every rival.
Hu Xiner always felt that something was strange about holding a wedding after having a child. She looked at Mu Qing for a long time and quickly shook her head to prevent herself from being immersed in her husband's beauty.
To resist Mu Qing's coaxing, she said sternly, "We are an old married couple, so we can just do whatever we want."
Mu Qing was about to continue his efforts when he noticed that there was a sudden silence under the plum tree.
It turned out that when Hu Xiner was dodging, a corner of her skirt was accidentally exposed.
The two people under the plum tree were very attentive and quickly noticed this detail and were walking towards the big rock.
The couple looked at each other, stood up together, and brushed the dust and grass off themselves as if nothing had happened.
"The moonlight is so beautiful tonight. Would you like to come for a walk too?" Hu Xiner said with a smile.
When Xuanyuan Huili saw that it was actually the two of them, her face froze and she subconsciously asked, "Lu Lang, why are you wearing a mask?"
She finally seized the opportunity to talk to Master Zhao, and was trying to persuade him to marry her by appealing to his emotions and reason, so as to strengthen her father's power while also giving herself an advantage.
But he didn't expect that he would be caught red-handed by the victim.
Just as she stood up, the smile on Mu Qing's face had not even faded, but she couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in her heart.
Although her father had told her long ago that the man in front of her was not the real eldest son of the Lu family, and should not be the one she fell in love with.
However, the interactions within the Duke's Mansion could not be faked, and neither could the talent and appearance of the person in front of him.
Unfortunately, Mu Qing would never give her a good look, nor would he give her any room for imagination. This made her hate Hu Xiner very much, but also envy the woman who could get Mu Qing.
The four of them stood facing each other in silence, all feeling extremely complicated.
At this moment, a whirlwind-like figure suddenly rushed over, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
"Why didn't you wait for me?" The eldest princess stopped in time and complained angrily.
