Gong Yu returned to Qingyang Pavilion, put the pen on the table and sat down, pouring himself a glass of wine as if no one else was watching, as if he didn't even notice Liu Xunhuan staring at him with wide eyes.

Liu Xunhuan stared at the pen where the ink was still wet, and said in a strange way: "Hey, why did you bring a pen back? Could it be that you went somewhere to show off your literary talent?"

Gong Yu only drank and turned a deaf ear to Liu Xunhuan's words.

When Liu Xunhuan saw that Gong Yu didn't respond at all, he became anxious first and said insinuatingly: "Just now, Shen Yan was looking for Miss Ye. I wanted to tell you, but after you disappeared, Miss Ye also disappeared. .”

After hearing Liu Xunhuan's words, Gong Yu put down his wine glass and said nonchalantly: "I took her away."

Unexpectedly, Gong Yu admitted it directly. Liu Xunhuan took a deep breath and looked him up and down, "I really didn't realize before that you actually like married women!"

Gong Yu frowned, "Who said I like her?"

"You left me and went to find her, and yet you allowed her to get so close to you." Liu Xunhuan pointed to the pen on the table, "But you came back with a pen. Didn't you go to put out lanterns with her? ?"

Liu Xunhuan asked painfully, as if she was an abandoned daughter-in-law who saw her husband having an affair with someone else.

However, Gong Yu could still lie without blushing, "You misunderstood, the pen is for my own use."

"Do you still have time to put out lanterns?" Liu Xunhuan said with disbelief written all over his face.

"Why not? That's why I prayed for your marriage to Princess Jiamin."

"Gong Yu?!"

Liu Xunhuan was so angry at Gong Yu that he sat aside and became sulky, pouring wine into his stomach one cup after another.

Gong Yu sat by the window sill, looking at the shy crescent moon hiding in the clouds. Thinking back on the experience she had with Ye Lan by the river, she found it very interesting.

She actually asked him: "Are you the same person as them?"

Did she think he was a good person?

They just want to fight for power, but he wants to subvert everything. The more chaos, the better. He will only feel happy if the whole capital is destroyed.

……

When Ye Lan and his group returned to Ye's house, Ye Weirou and Shen Yan happened to be coming from the other side.

The two parties met at the gate of the mansion.

Shen Yan immediately left Ye Weirou beside him and strode to Ye Lan. At this time, after a night of searching for Ye Lan, Shen Yan's good temper was broken.

"Where did you go just now?" he asked in a questioning tone.

Ye Lan chuckled lightly and glanced at Ye Weirou, who had an ugly face behind him, "Where else can I go? How can Prince Shen be with my fourth sister?"

Shen Yan's face stiffened and he explained: "Don't get me wrong, I just happened to meet the fourth girl waiting for you on the bridge. But you never showed up, so I accompanied her to look for you on the street, but I couldn't find you. , where have you been? I was worried that something would happen to you, so I planned to send the fourth girl back, so I went to report it to the official."

"Oh, I forgot about this after I received Feng'er." Yelan smiled at Ye Weirou, "It's rare that the fourth sister invited me out, but asked the fourth sister to keep looking for me along the way. I can't help you. But. Fortunately, Prince Shen has been by your side, at least this lantern festival is not in vain."

Her words seemed to mean something. Ye Weirou looked stern and said softly: "I didn't enjoy the lanterns much on the way. I have been worried about you, eldest sister. Now that I see eldest sister is fine, I feel relieved."

Ye Lan turned to look at Shen Yan, "I've troubled Shen Shizi to take care of my fourth sister along the way. It's getting late now, Shen Shizi, please come back."

Hearing Ye Lan's obvious order to expel guests, and recalling the figure he saw from behind, Shen Yan's face turned completely dark.

"I seem to have met a person in front of me who looks very similar to the figure from behind. There seems to be others around me, near Qingyang Pavilion. Ah Lan, have you ever been there?"

When Qingye heard this, he was immediately shocked. Wasn't the place where she and the girl separated just now near Qingyang Pavilion?

But Yelan didn't react at all, and said with a smile: "There were so many places along the way, and I don't really remember where I went. If Prince Shen really saw it, then maybe it was me and Feng'er."

Ye Feng looked at Shen Yan, "Shen Shizi asked, does it mean that there is someone else around my sister?"

With Ye Feng's help, Shen Yan had nothing to say.

"Maybe I got it wrong. Well, it's not convenient for me to bother you anymore. Ah Lan, you have a good rest. I'll take my leave first."

Shen Yan took one last deep look at Ye Lan before leaving.

Yelan's face was expressionless, showing no flaws at all.

Ye Weirou, on the other hand, felt sour and bitter in her heart when she saw his interaction with Ye Lan. Along the way, she finally had a chance to be alone with Shen Yan, but in the end, Shen Yan only thought about Ye Lan and left her completely alone. aside.

If she were the legitimate daughter, would Shen Yan be obsessed with herself now?

Walking on the way to Fanghua Garden, Qingye was still thinking about Shen Yan's words. After hesitating for a long time, he couldn't help but ask: "Miss, did you meet anyone at Qingyang Pavilion at that time?"

Yelan lowered his eyes, seeming to be thinking about something, and it took him a long time to give an answer: "Well... I met a fox."

"Fox... raccoon?" Qingye looked at Ye Lan in a foggy way.

No, aren't we talking about humans? Why are we talking about animals?

However, before she could ask more questions, Ye Lan had already gone away.

Tonight looks destined to be a sleepless night.

Back at Shen's house, Shen Yan couldn't bear it anymore and called Feng Ya over.

"Look at your bad idea! You asked me to please Yelan, but she treated me like a monkey all night! She didn't even know it from Prince Ning, she was just slapping me in the face!"

Shen Yan gritted his teeth. What happened at the lantern festival today was a shame. Ye Lan actually left with Gong Yu in front of him. The relationship between the two people was definitely very close.

When Feng Ya saw Shen Yan being so angry, he trembled and cursed Ye Lan for being ignorant.

"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. Maybe this matter is not that bad. After all, Yelan is just a girl, and she doesn't have enough certainty, so she let Prince Ning take advantage of her. But you have a marriage contract with her, and it is impossible for her to marry Prince Ning. "

"But it's just an engagement. If Prince Ning is really interested in Yelan and insists on fighting for his love, do you think that based on His Majesty's love for him, I, Duke Ningyang, dare to say no?"

Shen Yan rubbed his brows and felt a splitting headache. Thinking of the things Gong Yu had done in the past and His Majesty's connivance to Gong Yu, it would not be impossible to issue an imperial edict to force Gong Yu and Ye Lan to marry.

The matter between him and Yelan must not be delayed any longer.

Thinking of this, Shen Yan looked at Feng Ya and asked, "Where are the people from the Su family now?"

"We should arrive in Beijing in a day or two."

It came quite quickly, and Shen Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

He is determined to get this marriage, and even Gong Yu can't stop him.
