concubines are respected

Chapter 104 Relief
Murong Haotian followed closely, walked up to Suxian, seemingly unintentionally but intentionally kept Suxian behind, it is not difficult for a discerning eye to see that he intended to protect Suxian.

"She..." Concubine Lan hesitated for a while, and said proudly, "She is disrespectful to me, and her words and deeds are even more shameless. If I don't know how to show color, what is the prestige!"

Suxian's guess was correct, and Concubine Lan didn't mention Qiuqin in her words. It seems that she didn't want to let people know about her entanglement with Qiuqin today.

"Come here, bring this girl into the Zhilan Palace and send her to you!" Concubine Lan did not want to get entangled with the third prince, so she ordered to the maidservant at the side.

Hearing the words, the two palace servants took a step forward, but Murong Haotian stood in front of Suxian with a cold expression and remained motionless, showing no intention of backing down.

"Marquis Annan! What do you mean?" Concubine Lan didn't expect Marquis Annan to intervene, so she shouted in displeasure.

"Concubine Lan, Miss Lin has just entered the imperial city, and she doesn't know the rules of the palace. If she disrespects you, I will apologize to the empress on her behalf. I also hope that the empress will sell me three points, forgive It's my fault for Miss Lin's disrespect." An Nanhou said in a deep voice, without concealing his protective demeanor.

"A joke! It seems that this woman has some tricks. Not only did the third prince enter the palace to serve beside the queen mother, but she also alarmed Marquis Annan to speak for her today." Concubine Lan raised her eyebrows unexpectedly, "It's just Marquis Annan's move. I'm afraid it's against the law. You have nothing to do with this woman, what position do you have to apologize to Bengong for her?"

Marquis Annan frowned slightly, opened his lips lightly and said word by word, "If this Marquis, as her fiancé-in-law, presents a crime to Concubine Lan, would I have a position to speak?"

As soon as this remark came out, Concubine Lan looked at Suxian in surprise, "What? Is she the woman who is engaged to you?"

"That's right, Miss Lin is the wife of this Marquis who has never been married." Annan Hou said coolly, and then turned sideways to take a deep look at Su Xian, with a warm light in his eyes.

Su Xian's cheeks were flushed, although she and An Nanhou did have a marriage contract first, but during this period of time, the two have been in frequent contact, but neither of them mentioned the marriage contract at all.Unexpectedly, today he would declare in front of Concubine Lan that he was her unmarried wife, which made Suxian feel shy and uneasy.

Concubine Lan obviously didn't expect this to happen, she was slightly taken aback, with a smile on her face, "Hehe, since that's the case, I guess I will spare her for a while."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Lan said to Suxian with warning eyes, "Lin Suxian, although you have a marriage contract with Marquis Annan, but since you are walking around in the palace, you have to follow the rules of the palace. What happened today, I don't care about you for now, you need to remember what you shouldn't do and what you shouldn't say, otherwise I won't be as easy-talking as I am today!"

Of course Suxian knew the meaning of Lan Fei's words. Since Lan Fei no longer intentionally made things difficult, she also went down the steps and blessed Lan Fei, "Minnv wrote it down. Minnv thanked Niang Niang for her kindness."

"Hmph!" Concubine Lan stopped talking to Suxian, and led the maidservants to stride away with her head held high.

Seeing Concubine Lan leave, Murong Haotian looked down at Suxian's red and swollen face, and asked softly, "Is it still hurting?"

Suxian raised her hand to caress her face, then shook her head, avoiding Murong Haotian's concerned eyes.

"It's only been a few days since you entered the palace, how could you provoke Concubine Lan? Could it be because..." At this point, Murong Haotian paused, and whispered slightly resentful, "You...you are too Too impatient."

It seems that Murong Haotian misunderstood that Suxian and Lan Fei were enemies because the extermination of the Zhang family had something to do with Lan Fei's family.

"You really know?" Su Xian forgot the pain on her face for a moment, her pair of watery pupils met Murong Haotian's star pupils.

Suxian suddenly remembered that her cousin had told her that the Annan Hou Mansion knew about the extermination of the Zhang Mansion.At that time, she was still worried about the death of the old Hou Ye, and she didn't know if Murong Haotian knew about it, but judging from his tone at this time, it seemed that he knew it well.

"I... I know a thing or two, but I don't have any proof." Murong Haotian hesitated for a while, and said in a very low tone, then looked around to make sure that there were no outsiders around, but the third prince held his hands behind his back. He stood up and walked forward, it seemed that he didn't intend to participate in the conversation between the two, just now he subconsciously held Suxian's white wrist lightly, and said with a little self-reproach, "Your temperament has always been calm, now that you have entered the palace, How come I can't hold back anymore. In this situation, I don't know if it was right or wrong for me to let you enter the palace."

"You misunderstood, today's matter has nothing to do with that matter." Suxian said softly, "Things are not what you think, such a big matter, how can I act rashly."

"Then...then why did Concubine Lan..." Murong Haotian asked in puzzlement.

"It's all just a misunderstanding." Suxian hesitated slightly, and Qiuqin's warning to herself emerged in her mind, "If you don't want to cause trouble, pretend that what happened just now never happened, and don't mention it to anyone." Then I thought of Concubine Lan's panic-stricken appearance just now, and the performance of not saying a word after seeing the third prince and Murong Haotian.I immediately concluded in my heart that this matter must not be simple.Before I figure out the situation, it's better not to mention it for now.

Suxian's appearance was clearly concealed, and Murong Haotian was dissatisfied and just about to continue to question, the third prince's voice came from the front, "This is not a place to talk."

As soon as the words fell, a coquettish call came from the front, "Third Brother, why are you here?"

Without waiting for the third prince to respond, the visitor raised his voice and shouted, "Brother Haotian, have you also entered the palace?"

Suxian looked up, and saw a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a delicate face, dressed in an ordinary palace maid's attire, walking briskly towards her.

The girl smiled like a spring breeze blowing on her face, a pair of dimples appeared and disappeared on her fair cheeks, under her slightly straight nose, her bright red lips raised slightly, her dark eyes looked over the Third Prince to Murong Haotian.

"Brother Haotian, who is she?" When the girl saw Suxian and Murong Haotian standing together, the smile on her face faded by three points. When she found that Murong Haotian was holding Suxian's wrist, she faded The smile disappeared without a trace, and there was more hostility in his tone.

"Sixth Sister, looking at your outfit, I think you have sneaked out of the palace to play again." The third prince interrupted the girl's question, deliberately changing the subject.

'Sixth sister? Suxian thought to herself, the third prince called her the sixth younger sister, it seems that she must be the sixth princess today.

When chatting with the old matriarch in the mansion before, I heard her mention that the sixth princess is born of the concubine Rou, her appearance and beauty are all excellent, the emperor and the empress dowager regard them as treasures.It's just that the sixth princess grew up in Yiluo Kingdom, the mother's home of Concubine Rou, and didn't return to Da'an Imperial City until she was eight years old.Therefore, their temperament is no different from that of the Yiluo people. They are eccentric and informal, and they are not like ordinary women who don't stay out of the house, and they are not as gentle and peaceful as the women of Da'an Dynasty.

At this moment, it seems that the rumors are true.

The third prince asked, but the sixth princess did not answer, but took a step forward, staring fixedly at the bright wrist held by Murong Haotian in the palm of his hand, as if he wished to chop it off, and there was anger in his voice, "Who are you!?"
