Mu Peiyun started asking questions only after Lan Yi sat down.

"Miss Lan Yi, you came to Lord Chen's house to look for me, but is there something wrong? Could it be that His Highness..."

But His Highness just went out, and Bai Shaoqing and Lord Chen are nearby, so nothing should happen.

The next second, the second thing that made Mu Peiyun embarrassed happened.

"Princess Consort, Lan Yi is not here to look for you."

Mu Peiyun stopped talking immediately, paused, looked at Lan Yi and asked doubtfully: "So you are here to see Madam Chen?"

Lan Yi also shook his head.

Mu Peiyun suddenly felt a chill on his back. Could it be that there was a ghost in this house? Was Miss Lan Yi possessed by an evil spirit?

Ouyang Yue explained at the right time: "Don't worry, Princess, Miss Lan Yi is probably here to look for my brother."

After saying that, Ouyang Yue smiled at Mu Peiyun, then turned around and said to Lan Yi: "He just left my place not long ago, you two probably strayed from each other.

I suppose you went to the cottage to look for him, but didn't see him, so you came to me?"

Lan Yi nodded and said, "Madam Chen, I didn't come to him for anything important. I just borrowed a copy of the Book of Songs from him a few days ago. I returned it to him after I finished reading it these few days."

As he spoke, Lan Yi pulled out a book of poetry from his sleeve and handed it to Ouyang Yue's desk.

Ouyang Yue had a smile on his face, and the soft luster in his eyes could not be concealed, and he seemed to feel a little different towards Lan Yi.

Distant yet friendly, appreciative yet polite, very contradictory.

"You should give it to him yourself. Now that I, the eldest sister, have recovered from my illness, he probably won't come to my house again tomorrow.

I'm too lazy to go out, so you can send it to him when you are free.

Or you can just send someone to tell him to come get it from you himself."

There was no emotion in Ouyang Yue's tone, except for a strange look when he looked at Lan Yi.

Mu Peiyun couldn't help but feel a little confused. Why were there some strange things about Madam Chen and her brother?

In the morning, Ouyang Xuan met her and the prince, and looked at him with a strange look. At this moment, Madam Chen also looked at Lan Yi with a strange look.

What surprised Mu Peiyun even more was that the person Lan Yi came to the governor's mansion to find was actually Ouyang Xuan.

The new literary talent Ouyang Xuan whom they had been listening to all the way.

Ouyang Xuan, the arrogant man who despised royal power and wealth.

I have to say that Lan Yi really has a talent for business.

On the way from Zhongdu to Fanyang, she felt unwell and dizzy.

However, I have heard that there has been a very talented Zhilan Yushu in Fanyang City in recent years.

However, it runs counter to the purpose of the Situ family. The two families are completely different.

His Highness also said that he would visit Ouyang Xuan when he had the chance, but I didn’t expect to meet him so soon.

It's just a little different from what I imagined.

Never mind, the most important thing right now is corruption and disaster relief.

Lan Yi did not refute Ouyang Yue's words. She reached out and took back the Book of Songs that she had just handed over.

This is good, she will have the chance to see him again.

With her status, it was not easy for her to see him, and she would be exposed to so much gossip.

"Okay then. I came here today specifically to give him a book. Why not follow him now? Maybe we can catch up with him."

As Lan Yi spoke, she stood up and bowed properly to Mu Peiyun and Ouyang Yue, her every move and gesture revealing the grace of a lady from a noble family.

Ouyang Yue did not stop him, but just smiled and nodded, as if he was used to it?

Could it be that Zi Yi often comes here to find Ouyang Xuan?

Mu Peiyun couldn't help but imagine a big drama in his mind.

A noble and honest scholar and the beautiful maiden owner of a brothel.

Because of worldly views, lovers cannot stay together.

Omg.

Mu Peiyun hurriedly shook his head and threw away the random thoughts in his mind.

Lan Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief after she walked out of the Chen Mansion.

He didn't wait for her. She clearly said that she would come to the governor's mansion to find him today, but he still left early.

Lan Yi felt a wave of bitterness in her heart, and her tears wanted to burst out of her eyes, but she controlled them tightly.

In the end, he still despised her identity.

It turned out that what my mother said was right. How many people would look up to them when they came from a brothel?

It would be enough to be able to make a living, why bother begging for mercy from the heartless people in this world.

Thinking of this, Lan Yi suddenly stopped, sneered in the direction ahead, and turned around and walked away resolutely.

But after walking a few steps, he turned back.

Finally, I met the man in a shabby little house on Xiluo Street.

"You...why are you here?"

Ouyang Xuan was obviously a little surprised. He thought she would go back since she couldn't find him at her sister's house.

I didn't expect to come here.

The corners of Lan Yi's lips suddenly curved, her eyes and eyebrows were so charming that water could drip out, she was full of seductiveness and charm.

Perhaps only such an expression could match Lan Yi's domineering beauty.

It’s a pity that Lan Yi rarely smiled so charmingly in the past.

"Why, if you don't wait for me, can't I come to you?"

After saying that, he walked straight towards Ouyang Xuan, forcing Ouyang Xuan to blush and step back repeatedly.

Ben was the most literate person, but now he became stammering: "Of course... of course... you can."

Just when Ouyang Xuan was about to lean against the wall behind him, with no escape possible, Lan Yi suddenly stopped.

Ignoring the people pointing outside the door, he turned around and closed the door.

Seeing this, Ouyang Xuan put away his shyness, took two steps at a time, came to Lan Yi's side and said: "Don't... don't close the door."

Hearing this, Lan Yi sneered and looked sideways at Ouyang Xuan with a somewhat sad tone.

"I know this will affect your reputation, but I want no one to be watching me when I talk to you."

Ouyang Xuan looked at Lan Yi and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

That's not what he meant. He never despised her identity.

It was because he had achieved nothing now, and only when he became successful and famous could he propose to her through matchmakers and six betrothals.

Now, a man and a woman are alone in a room. How can a girl like her bear the gossip outside?

"You know, I never care about those things."

Lan Yi suddenly smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly, but there was unavoidable anticipation in her eyes.

"So, what do you care about?"

Tell me, as long as you say it, I can disregard everything, break through worldly obstacles and stay with you.

What do other people's gossips have to do with me? I only want you.

But in the end, Lan Yi didn't get what she wanted.

Ouyang Xuan wanted to say something several times, but finally swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

He looked away and towards the door, his eyes firm: "I care about fairness in this world and the health of my loved ones."

Care about you.

If possible, I hope you can wait for me, until the day when I am able to seek justice for the people here.

Waiting for the day when there is no distinction between high and low in this world.

I will welcome you into my Ouyang family with great fanfare, and no one will dare to say a word to you anymore.

Lan Yi's head buzzed, her expectations were gone, and she felt disappointed.

He was distracted for a moment, but soon he gathered his thoughts.

"This is your Book of Poetry. Perhaps you are right. I am not one of those people. I really can't understand your flowery writings.

What I like is just doing business, which is far from you. "

Before Ouyang Xuan could reach out, Lan Yi walked towards the door. The moment the Book of Poetry fell to the ground, the door opened...

Looking at the departing figure, Ouyang Xuan hated his own incompetence and weakness.

He didn't mean to feel that she was distant from him, he just wanted her to do what she was good at.

Without forcing himself to change, he would slowly approach her.
