Zhu and An stood not far in front of the pavilion, waiting for Zhou’s mother to come out.

The cool breeze blows, and the autumn sounds are swaying everywhere. The faint sunlight shines on the white stones, silent and lonely, like a deserted tomb.

An subconsciously tightened his cloak and felt a little confused inexplicably.

The feeling that something seemed to happen, at this moment, firmly grasped her heart and made her breathing become a little rapid.

After biting her lips for a moment, she still took a few steps forward, walked behind Zhu, and asked softly: "Princess, Mr. Mengxi...is he really here today?"

"Come and ask me?" Zhu turned his head, raised his eyebrows high, and looked surprised: "I still heard from you, why did you ask me again? Third wife, aren't you confused?"

An hurriedly smiled and said, "The wife didn't mean that. But the wife heard that you can see the man's visitor's post here, so I would like to ask if you saw Mr. Mengxi's post?"

As she spoke, her big eyes twitched from under her eyelids and swept quickly towards Zhu.

Zhu's smile on his face did not diminish and he said, "Where do I see these posts? And you also said that they are male guests, and the posts are all under the control of the prince. Where will I go to see this moment?"

At this point, his eyes narrowed and his expression faded: "I said, don't you just swear by me? I'll give up my face and ask for a future for the second master. Don't tell me that this is what you are talking nonsense."

"Daughter-in-law doesn't dare." As soon as she touched her indifferent eyes, An quickly withdrew her gaze.

Forget it, she was thinking too much.

Zhu has always loved the second master Xu Su more, and she had noticed this very early.

And today's affairs were all arranged by An, and no one else knew about it. Including Niu Pozi, he also knew nothing about it.

Mr. Mengxi was going to come to the royal palace to attend the birthday banquet and enjoy the strange stones by the way, but Mrs. Niu said it casually.

Because Niu Pozi's grandson worked in the outside world, one day, he went home with many noble and famous people's greetings, and even boasted about Mr. Mengxi's love of enjoying strange stones. Only then did Niu Pozi realize that there was such a person.

She told An about this, but did not deliberately reveal the news, but instead used the excuse of her grandson causing a big disaster and her family spent some money on her family to ask for rewards from An for money.

Since then, An has been careful and pretended to raise money. He has divided the clichés around the bell several times, but it was finally confirmed that Niu Po ​​did not say nonsense.

Mr. Mengxi really loves to enjoy strange stones, and has been a guest at a noble family in the capital recently. The noble person has been acquainted with the royal palace and will definitely come to attend the princess' birthday banquet.

After learning about this, An had the idea of ​​asking An Yuanshan to worship Mr. Mengxi.

Today, she quietly sent several little girls outside, guarded the pavilion with strange stones, and informed them of Mr. Mengxi in advance, so that they could immediately repay them when they saw someone similar.

Shortly after the banquet, the magpie came to report that she saw an old man with a white head and a green shirt and an extraordinary demeanor entering Mianyun Pavilion.

Because he was afraid that the news would be wrong, An even asked Niu Po ​​and asked indirectly. When he learned that Mr. Mengxi had indeed come to the royal palace, he hurriedly handed An Yuanshan a letter.

Originally, she was thinking about looking for an opportunity to visit Mianyun Pavilion and help Anyuanshan Zhou Quanyi, but unexpectedly, Zhou's mother suddenly came over and said that it was Zhu's invitation, so she had to turn around in a hurry.

After seeing Zhu, she realized that Zhu heard that the An Yuanshan brothers had a successful study experience, and she wanted to meet these two young talents on a whim.

An politely refused on the grounds that his two nephews had already left the table and returned home.

But who would have thought that at this moment, a quick-mouthed girl came from somewhere and said, "I saw An Yuanshan talking to an old master in Mianyun Pavilion, but she directly slapped An's mouth."

Zhu's face was disguised on the spot. An was helpless and had to explain to Zhu a few words.

As soon as he heard Mr. Mengxi's name, Zhu could no longer sit still and wanted to visit him no matter what, so An had to follow him.

On the way here, Zhu blamed An, saying that she only cared about her parents' home, but forgot her in-laws' home.

This behavior is very consistent with her usual temperament, and it also shows in disguise that she is not aware of this matter in advance.

Except for the quick-mouthed girl, An personally did this matter from beginning to end. She believed that she had achieved perfection and could not have any problems.

As he was spinning his mind, a "yah" sound suddenly came from the front, and the half-closed door of Mianyun Pavilion was slowly opened.

An was startled and quickly raised his eyes to look.

The corner of the man's blue shirt is a clean corner.

Mr. Mengxi?!

An almost blurted out.

However, the moment she opened her lips, her pupils suddenly shrank and her lips were closed.

Not Mr. Mengxi!

The man who stepped slowly out of the gate of Mianyun Pavilion was a man and also wore a blue shirt, but he was not an old man with white hair and a gentle middle-aged scholar.

Mr. Mengxi is over 60 years old this year, and it is absolutely impossible for him to be so young!

Who is this person?

An's eyes opened behind the person, and his face gradually showed a look of surprise and suspicion.

The scribe came out alone and was not followed by anyone behind him.

Why didn't that child in the faraway mountain appear?

Mr. Mengxi is a great scholar. He values ​​his identity and should stay in the pavilion. However, An Yuanshan should come out to say hello to her aunt no matter what, so that it is in accordance with etiquette.

Is he tripped up by something?

At this time, the middle-aged scholar had already stepped down the stone steps, his wide robe and sleeves fluttered in the wind, and he seemed to be at ease as he walked.

He calmly walked to Zhu and An in front of him five or six steps, and bowed with his hands straight and said loudly: "He Siyuan, I worshiped him at the fifth master of the prince's mansion. I have met the princess and the third wife."

But it turned out to be Xu Jie's disciple.

An breathed a sigh of relief.

The fifth and third bedrooms are usually quite close, and He Siyuan looked calm and thought there should be nothing serious in the pavilion.

"Mr. He came with Mr. Mengxi?" An asked with a smile through the wall of human beings made up of maids.

"Mr. Mengxi?" He Siyuan seemed a little surprised, his voice was a little higher, and then he looked gentle and said slowly: "I didn't see him. As far as I know, Mr. Mengxi should have left the capital yesterday."

"What?" An exclaimed.

Mr. Mengxi left the capital yesterday?

So who will be the old man who went to Mianyun Pavilion today?

Since Mr. Mengxi is not here, where did Mrs. Niu hear the words that Mrs. Niu said so convincingly?

Could it be... what she said was lies?

As soon as he thought of this, An's ear seemed to explode with thunder, and his head "boomed" sounded, and his hands and feet became soft.

That bad premonition came again, making her feel panicked and almost unsteady.

What happened today is really a mess?

Although she still doesn't understand the purpose of this trap, it is not only a setting, but how could it be a good thing?

Isn’t something wrong with this child in Yuanshan?

Countless thoughts rushed over, and the more An thoughts became more and more terrifying. The blood on his face faded away quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the eyes turned black.

What is An Yuanshan really like? What is her appearance to meet her elder brother?

"Madam Qibing, Brother Yuan is in the pavilion now. There is nothing else to do. Please rest assured, Mrs. Third." A slow voice suddenly sounded, hitting An's most worried thing.

It’s Zhou’s voice!

An's dispersed gaze gradually gathered, and he saw Zhou's mother stepping down the stone steps as if nothing had happened, and the few mothers behind him also looked as usual.

"Brother Yuan probably had too much wine and was asleep now. I called him a few times, but he slept too well, so I left first. The third lady asked the two maids to go in and take a look. You don't need to go in by yourself."

After walking to An, Zhou's mother said slowly again.

The voice was as straight as the sound of Lun in the sky, making An's chaotic mind clear in an instant, and his eyes turned red for a moment.

From shock to shock, and then to a little calmer, the emotional ups and downs between the few breaths was something she had never seen in her life. At this time, she could not control her nephew's safety and safety.

Fortunately, Zhou's mother spoke at the right time, but gave An the opportunity to adjust her mood.

She only heard her laugh and said, "Brother Yuan is also a big child. Even if the third lady is an elder, she still has to take care of his face. If he wakes up for a moment and sees the third lady, he will be very embarrassed."

This is a vague reminder to An that although An Yuanshan is her nephew, the two of them are about the same age. An Yuanshan is sleeping on the couch now, so her aunt should be avoided.

These words made An feel more at ease.

As long as there is nothing wrong with Anyuan Mountain, no matter what you are next to you.

After trying hard to suppress his ups and downs, An forced a smile and said, "Mom Lao has trouble."

After a stop, he finally gave up the idea of ​​apologizing for Mr. Mengxi.

He Siyuan is still there, and it is not easy to say more words openly.

Moreover, at this time, An was also in a state of chaos. He really didn't have the spirit to deal with Zhu, so he could only go through it vaguely first.

Mother Zhou smiled and said without a smile: "This is what I should be. If the third wife really wants to thank her, she should thank Mr. He."

As he said that, he glanced at He Siyuan and smiled and said, "Mr. He helped take care of him for a long time."

An was slightly stunned and asked subconsciously: "Mr. He?"

"Yes, the third lady, it is Mr. He." Mother Zhou nodded with a smile.

He Siyuan gently brushed his sleeves and smiled warmly and said, "It turns out that the young man is actually the third lady's nephew, but he is disrespectful."

An looked at him blankly. After a while, he sorted out a thread in his messy thoughts and asked, "I wonder why Mr. and I have been with my nephew again?"
