After leaving the pavilion, there is a gate tower opposite the pond bridge, which leads to the other courtyard. I heard that there is a rockery in the other courtyard and a pavilion on the mountain. Standing in the pavilion, you can see the whole capital.

Every corridor and path in the Duke's Mansion is full of men and women watching the lanterns. Whenever they meet, they bow to each other and salute...

The eldest girl and the third girl walked in the front, followed by several other girls. The girls walked around and stopped to watch carefully when they saw a lantern they liked...

They were originally together, but now they have dispersed, some are still in the same place, and some have gone far away.

The seventh girl accompanied the fifth girl. The fifth girl was looking at the lanterns seriously, but the seventh girl was muttering: "I said she was the most eye-catching, but in the end, the big sister took the spotlight."

"The eldest sister looks like a fairy, even I can't help but look at her a few more times." The fifth girl looked up at the lamp, her face full of tenderness.

The seventh girl also had to admit that her eldest sister was indeed beautiful: "But the fifth sister is not bad either... Look at those men, looking at the eldest sister is like looking at a plate of Chinese food."

The fifth girl immediately covered the seventh girl's mouth: "Seventh sister, please don't talk nonsense, lest someone hears it and get into trouble."

"I just told the truth... Anyway, if the tree attracts the wind, my eldest sister won't be any better."

"Seventh sister, how can you talk about big sister like that!" The fifth girl sounded anxious, wondering what was wrong with the seventh girl. Her temper has turned out to be like this in recent days.

The seventh girl pouted: "Who told her to be from the eldest family? I don't like people from the eldest family."

"Seventh sister." The fifth girl took the seventh girl's hand and said, "We are all girls of the Wen family no matter what. You cannot say these things outside, let alone at home. Even if you have a grudge with the sixth sister, you cannot blame others."

The seventh girl put away the fifth girl's hand: "Fifth sister, you are timid and afraid of getting into trouble, but I am not afraid. You can't say this or that, but seventh sister, I just say anything."

"Seventh sister, why are you so stubborn!" The fifth girl didn't know what to say.

"That's all because of the big house." The seventh girl snorted coldly: "If the fifth sister wants to enjoy the lanterns, she can do it herself. I won't accompany you."

"Seventh sister!" the fifth girl shouted to stop, but the seventh girl left without looking back.

The female envoy Han Lu asked anxiously: "Miss Five, Miss Seven is not going back home, right?"

"No, the seventh sister still understands this etiquette. It's just going to the mansion to have tea... let's keep going." The fifth girl sighed, raised her head and continued to watch the lanterns...

At this time, between the two lanterns, the fifth girl accidentally saw Shen Bohuai, the eldest son of Shen, going to another yard. When the fifth girl was daydreaming, she saw a woman following him furtively...

The fifth girl held the handkerchief tightly with both hands and was a little scared, but she hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to go and have a look. At this moment, the fifth girl parted the cold dew and let her go to the pavilion to get something...

The courtyard here is decorated with lights and colorful decorations, but there is almost no one there. It is not as lively as the side courtyard...

When the fifth girl saw that no one was watching, she trotted after her and hid in a place to watch.

"Brother Bohuai, when do you want to hide from me?" Cao Xi, the girl from the Cao family, simply ran faster and grabbed Shen Bohuai's arm.

"Sister Cao, please respect yourself." Shen Bohuai's face was terrifyingly dark, because he knew that Cao Xi had been following her.

"I'm not afraid. It doesn't matter if someone sees me. Anyway, brother Bohuai will marry me sooner or later." Cao Xi has always been fearless, and this time it was her parents' wish. She was even more daring. This will save her.

Tighter.

"Where did Sister Cao hear such ridiculous things?" Shen Bohuai let her hold his arm.

"Absurd words? Brother Bohuai...don't you like Cao Xi?" Cao Xi was a little disappointed. It could be seen that Shen Bohuai didn't want to let go of her hand. She felt that Shen Bohuai still liked her.

"I'm not happy. I tolerated you following me all night. Please respect yourself, Sister Cao." Shen Bohuai looked into the distance, not looking at Cao Xi.

"I..." Cao Xi burst into tears suddenly, but he never let go of Bo Huai: "But Cao Xi likes brother Bo Huai."

"Sister Cao, I call you this because you are my cousin... Please let me go. Don't make me hate you." Shen Bohuai responded expressionlessly.

"I won't let go...unless Brother Bohuai pulls away on his own..." Cao Xi knew that Shen Bohuai never touched women, and even if they were entangled now, he would not pull her away himself.

"Cao Xi likes brother Bohuai and will only be brother Bohuai's wife in the future." Cao Xi moved in front of Shen Bohuai, but Bohuai never looked at her.

"It doesn't matter that Brother Bohuai doesn't look at me. Brother Bohuai will like Cao Xi sooner or later." Cao Xi stared at Shen Bohuai, but Shen Bohuai remained motionless. But the more he did this, the more reckless Cao Xi became, and he would directly hug Shen Bohuai...

.

The fifth girl was so frightened that she dropped the handkerchief in her hand. She covered her mouth with both hands and did not dare to say anything. Her heart almost jumped out of her chest. She did not expect that this girl from the Cao family would be so shameless...

The fifth girl looked around and saw someone walking towards her in the distance behind her...

The fifth girl was a little scared and trembling. Although she had no connection with the girls from the Cao family, she was still the daughter of the royal family, a delicate girl. If anyone looked at her, her reputation would be ruined...

The fifth girl still hesitated, but it could be seen that the people behind her were getting closer and closer, so the fifth girl finally plucked up the courage and walked towards them.

The fifth girl saw Shen Bohuai's hands clenched so tightly that his nails were almost digging into his flesh.

The fifth girl was scared and pretended to cough in a low voice; Cao Xi quickly let go of Bo Huai: "Who!"

The fifth girl swallowed, and then someone came up from behind. It turned out to be a few boys...

The fifth girl bowed and stuttered a little: "Wen Yunlian didn't mean to disturb..."

Hearing that it was a girl from the Wen family, Shen Bohuai looked over and said, "Are you Shi Qing's sister?"

"Exactly..." The fifth girl was always afraid.

Cao Xi stood aside, somewhat scared in his heart, but he also hated Yun Lian, blaming her for ruining her good relationship with Bo Huai.

"Why are you here?" Cao Xi couldn't help but ask.

"Brother Bohuai, my second brother is looking for you. He said he has something important to tell you. Please come with me..." The fifth girl scratched her sleeves. This was the first time she had lied.

Shen Bohuai was stunned for a while, then nodded and said, "Please lead the way."

"Brother Bohuai..." Cao Xi called out, but Shen Bohuai followed the fifth girl out of the yard without looking back.

At this moment, Cao Xi's personal maid came over with a worried look on her face: "Miss, please don't take such risks again in the future."

Cao Xi kept looking at the fifth girl: "If it weren't for her, brother Bohuai would definitely have agreed to marry me."

The envoy didn't know how to reply, but she knew that the Wen girl just saved her own girl...

"Girl, fortunately, the Wen family girl showed up in time to interrupt the girl, otherwise she would have been seen by those boys, and this would have spread widely, and then the girl's reputation would have been completely ruined."

"You actually spoke for her, what if it was her who spread the word?" Cao Xi got angry when he thought of Wen Yunlian.

"I think that the Wen girl is timid, so I shouldn't...otherwise I wouldn't have disturbed the girl before the servant came..."

"Is she the one who called you?" Cao Xi pressed the envoy. The envoy did not dare to speak at this moment and just lowered her head.

"I really don't know if you are hers or mine!"

"The slave is naturally the girl's person"
