Zhenguo Houfu is one of the most famous families in the capital. As a founding figure of the country, Zhenguo Hou is a hero to the current emperor.

As the founding hero of the country, King Huainan, who also helped the emperor conquer half of the country, accidentally saved the life of Marquis Zhen Guo on the battlefield, the friendship between the two sublimated and they soon began to secretly call themselves brothers.

This time the King of Huainan came to Beijing to celebrate his birthday. Although the Marquis of Zhenguo had just lost his beloved son, he still held a banquet in the mansion to entertain the King of Huainan who came from afar.

The Zhenguo Hou Mansion is located in the most prosperous area of ​​the capital, covering a large area and the house is spacious.

In a flower-filled courtyard of the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, King Huainan was holding the hand of a maid in pink.

This maid dressed in pink was as beautiful as a flower. When she was serving King Huainan at a banquet, he caught his eye.

Mrs. Hou Zhang followed the trend and clearly ordered the pink-clad maid to come over and serve tea, but her intention was to give the pink-clad maid directly to the Huainan King to enjoy.

The King of Huainan was lustful by nature. How could he let go of this charming beauty who had captured his attention at the banquet? He immediately ordered his maid in pink to sleep with her.

But the maid in pink clothes refused to obey, and the impatient King Huainan was very unhappy at the moment.

But when he saw the beauty with pink cheeks and tears, he was even more lovable. He was in a mood again, so he resisted the urge to throw the pink-clad maid directly onto the bed. He gently stroked the pink-clad maid's delicate hands and patiently comforted her:

"Don't cry, don't be afraid. As long as you fulfill my wish today, I promise you endless glory and wealth in the future, how about that?"

Unexpectedly, after hearing the words of King Huainan, the maid in pink not only refused to obey him, but also struggled desperately, trying to break away from King Huainan's clutches.

King Huainan ran out of patience and pinched the pink-clad maid's chin with his backhand, and scolded displeasedly:

"It's true that if you don't eat the toast, you will have to drink it as a penalty! Isn't it better to be the concubine of my Huainan King than to be the maid of this troublesome son?"

As the King of Huainan said this, he forcibly pulled the pink-clad maid onto the bed and began to tear up the pink-clad maid's skirt.

But he thought that the maid in pink clothes suddenly took out something from her arms and stabbed King Huainan in the heart.

King Huainan did not expect that the maid in pink would dare to assassinate him. When he was shocked, he instinctively dodged and escaped the maid in pink.

Although the maid in pink attacked at such a close range and he was unprepared, he had experienced many battles and was calm in the face of danger and quickly calmed down.

Seeing that the maid in pink clothes had taken advantage of him to dodge, she had jumped from the bed to the ground, turned around and fled towards the door, trying to escape.

King Huainan was furious, drew his sword from his waist and chased after him.

King Huainan quickly caught up with the maid in pink who stumbled forward.

Just when he raised the sword in his hand and was about to pierce the pink-clothed maid's left breast to relieve the hatred in his heart, a slender hand suddenly stretched out and stopped in front of him.

King Huainan turned his head in surprise and met a pair of calm and clear eyes.

King Huainan couldn't help being stunned, "Eldest Young Master?!"

The person who came was as handsome as ever, although his dark eyes were a bit unfathomable, but he was undoubtedly Xiao Tianmo, the eldest son of Zhenguo Hou Mansion.

King Huainan frowned, didn't he say that the eldest son of the Hou Mansion was dead?

How can I stand here properly now?

At this moment, the maid in pink couldn't help but turn her head when she heard the sound. I don't know whether she was exhausted or frightened. She was about to fall to the ground with a "squeak".

Xiao Tianmo hurriedly raised his hand to support her, and bowed slightly to respond to King Huainan: "I have met Uncle Shi."

The Huainan King's falcon-like eyes circled around Xiao Tianmo's face, and then fell on the pink-clothed maid who would have fallen to the ground if Xiao Tianmo hadn't been holding her back.

At this moment, something happened to slip from the hand of the maid in pink. King Huainan recognized that it was the hidden weapon that the maid in pink had used to assassinate him.

After seeing this object clearly, King Huainan's eyes suddenly widened as big as a copper bell.

Because he was shocked to find that it was not the hidden weapon he thought it was, but a piece of white jade radish.

"This, this"

King Huainan was breathing heavily, and the expressions on his face were changing, like a big colorful dye vat.

It turns out that the maid in pink didn't really want to assassinate him, she was just bluffing to get away.

But this makes him feel so embarrassed!

If people knew that he, a battle-hardened warrior, could not even tell the difference between a dagger and a radish root in the kitchen, he would still laugh out loud!

Seeing the strange look on King Huainan's face, Xiao Tianmo understood clearly, so he spoke in a deep voice:

"This girl has always been careless. Please forgive me, Uncle Shi, and don't argue with her."

Seeing that Xiao Tianmo did not ask him the reason for drawing the sword, King Huainan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"She doesn't understand the rules. She really should be trained to make her understand her identity. As a servant, she is so bold. It's really too presumptuous!"

However, he did not mention the matter of letting the maid in pink clothes attend his bed.

Xiao Tianmo lowered his eyes to hide the look in his eyes, and replied calmly: "Uncle Shi taught you a lesson."

King Huainan glanced sideways at Xiao Tianmo, who was still respectful, snorted coldly, rolled down his sleeves and walked down the stone steps, striding out of the courtyard.

After King Huainan's back disappeared from sight, Xiao Tianmo cast his gaze on the pink-clothed maid who had calmed down and lowered her eyes not knowing what she was thinking.

Suddenly thinking of the true identity of this maid, Xiao Tianmo's expression became complicated.

The pink-clad maid in front of her is named Tinglan. She is now in her early twenties, but her appearance is very sweet and lovely. She is an orphan girl who was rescued by the Lord Zhenguo when he went out to fight.

Because Ting Lanyan's relatives had died long ago, the Marquis of Zhenguo took her into his residence.

Even the name Tinglan was given to her by Marquis Zhenguo.

But no one would have thought that this humble maid turned out to be the eldest daughter of the current queen who was lost during the war, and she was a real royal princess.

In her previous life, Ting Lan was also given to the King of Huainan by Madam Hou Zhang.

Tinglan, however, would rather die than obey, and eventually died under the sword of King Huainan.

Later, the truth about Tinglan's identity was revealed, and the prince's mansion offended the queen and the prince born to the queen.

The current emperor has very few heirs, headed by the most capable prince and the wise king.

The prince and the wise king have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time, but if two tigers fight, one of them will be injured.

Zhenguo Houfu has always maintained neutrality and never participated in party disputes.

But Tinglan's incident made the prince hate the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion, but the Xianwang faction tried to win over him in every possible way. The Zhenguo Marquis Mansion had no choice, so it had no choice but to turn to the Xianwang faction.

However, the wise king was unscrupulous in order to gain the throne, and his palace eventually became a stepping stone for others, and his whole family was destroyed.

Thinking of this, Xiao Tianmo solemnly asked Ting Lan: "What are your plans in the future?"

Hearing this, Ting Lan immediately rushed forward and knelt down in front of Xiao Tianmo, "Slave, I thank the eldest master for saving my life. I don't want to cause trouble for the Hou Mansion. I know that I am wrong. I beg the eldest master not to drive me away!"

Although her legs could not stop shaking, Tinglan gritted her teeth and ordered herself to calm down.

She never expected that the dead eldest son would suddenly appear here and save her.
