Chapter 797
By this time, there were already people in the pavilion.
One was Ning Che, whom Huo Zhao was familiar with, and the other was Wen Mingxuan, whom Ning Che had mentioned.
Wen Mingxuan and Wen Lang are brothers, which can be seen from their appearance, but in terms of their aura, the two are completely different.
Wen Lang possesses the unique elegance of a refined scholar, while Wen Mingxuan exudes the youthful spirit of a young man.
At first glance, Huo Zhao preferred Wen Mingxuan.
This was Wen Mingxuan's first time meeting Shen Rang and Huo Zhao, and he was a little nervous. He opened his mouth, stammered, and then said, "Young Master Shen, Young Madam Shen."
Ning Che, on the other hand, stepped forward with a smile and said, "Zhao Zhao, you've finally arrived! Please have a seat, please have a seat. Their tea and snacks are quite good, I've already made arrangements!"
After everyone took their seats, Huo Zhao and Ning Che looked at the scenery outside, while Shen Rang chatted with Wen Mingxuan.
"When did Young Master Wen arrive in Luoyang?"
"I came here with my father and mother a few days ago."
Wen Mingxuan was still somewhat reserved.
Shen Rang nodded slightly: "I've always heard that Yangzhou has beautiful scenery, but I've never had the chance to see it. It's a real pity."
"Yangzhou is indeed beautiful, but in terms of prosperity, Luoyang is far superior. Being right under the emperor's nose is much more desirable than any of those scenic spots."
Shen Rang nodded, his gaze unconsciously falling on Huo Zhao.
Huo Zhao was chatting and laughing with Ning Che, her face beaming, and she didn't notice him.
Shen Rang sighed inwardly. To pass the time, he had no choice but to chat with Wen Mingxuan again.
This teahouse not only offers excellent tea and snacks, but also boasts superb main courses. What's even more remarkable is that they incorporate various tea flavors into their dishes, giving those everyday meals a unique taste.
After the meal, everyone left.
Shen Rang and Huo Zhao returned to the Marquis's residence. As they were preparing to rest for the afternoon, Huo Zhao asked him what he thought of Wen Mingxuan.
"They may seem innocent and harmless, but they also have their own thoughts."
Shen Rang even closed his eyes. "But having ambition isn't a bad thing. In this world, one must always fight for oneself. However, whether his ambition will harm Miss Ning is uncertain."
Upon hearing this, Huo Zhao sighed.
She had spoken a few words with Wen Mingxuan today and learned that although he seemed to lack cunning, he was very tactful in his speech, which made her realize that he was not as simple as he appeared.
However, as Shen Rang said, it's uncertain whether Wen Mingxuan's intentions are good or bad for Ning Che.
Huo Zhao sighed: "I'll go to the Ning residence tomorrow and tell Lord Ning about it."
Shen Rang hummed in agreement and pulled the person tightly into his arms.
Lying there quietly, Huo Zhao couldn't fall asleep.
She wrapped her arms around Shen Rang's waist and pressed her body tightly against him.
Shen Rang's Adam's apple bobbed, and he opened his eyes to look at her, his eyes darkening: "What?"
"I can't sleep."
Huo Zhao answered honestly.
Shen Rang pursed his lips, and his large hand, which had been obediently placed on Huo Zhao's waist, moved to another position.
"Then—" His voice was a little hoarse, as if he was suppressing something, or as if he was expecting something.
"Let's talk."
Huo Zhaodao.
Shen Rang was taken aback.
Before he could react, Huo Zhao continued, "You said today that His Majesty is planning to choose between the First Prince and the Third Prince, and that this matter is related to Father. What do you mean?"
Hearing her words, Shen Rang remained silent for a long time.
After a while, Shen Rang burst out laughing.
His expectations for Huo Zhao were far too high.
They actually expected her to take the initiative.
Shen Rang took a deep breath and closed his eyes again: "I'm sleepy, we'll talk later."
Huo Zhao: ...Why did your expression change?
