Yuwen Fei, are you crazy?

In the end, Huai Jin still did not reply to Lan Ling, which made Lan Ling feel extremely depressed for a long time. Her two eyes looked at Huai Jin, wanting him to answer her question with certainty.

”You really don't like Xibo Marquis?” Lan Ling pressed down the book in his hands, both of his eyes were staring straight at Huai Jin, hoping to see the answer from that pair of eyes.

Seeing that Huai Jin did not even bat an eyelid, Lan Ling coldly snorted, stood up and brushed off the dust on her buttocks, then excitedly ran to find Ran Mei. The red snake would not come back anyway, but he had decided to not leave a single bite for the shameless woman to eat tonight!

Lan Ling, who could not find the answer to this question, turned and tried to talk to Ran Mei, but when it came to this matter, Ran Mei was like a dull gourd that could not be asked.

Although Ran Mei didn't tell Lan Ling, she was curious. Seeing the princess's previous expression, it was clear that she liked the Xibo Marquis, but the current indifference didn't seem to be an act either.

However, soon, the two of them would have a chance to verify their thoughts. This was because every year, after autumn, the Emperor would organize an event called Autumn Shou, at which time, the princes, princesses, and ladies of the imperial harem would all have the chance to go. If he took first place in the Autumn Hunt, he could ask the Emperor for a wish.

Eight years ago, Grand Princess Ping Yang had won first place in the Autumn Hunt and forced the emperor to keep the name list on the list to the public and made it her own Prince Consort. This act of being a genius and beautiful woman had dazzled the hearts of so many women in the capital all those years ago.

This year, Huai Jin had personally promised Prince Jin that he would always be the best rider in the capital. It could be said that, since Prince Jin had already promised to help Huai Jin obtain the top spot, then the outcome for this year's Autumn Shou had already been decided.

The night before Qiu Shou, Lan Ling begged for half a day before Huai Jin agreed to bring him there. After receiving the promise, Lan Ling happily ran back to her own room, muttering to herself that she could finally meet Xibo Marquis in person.

Ran Mei chuckled, after helping Huai Jin bathe and change her clothes, she left the main hall, and returned to her own room to rest.

Huai Jin stretched her body and yawned, then sat down and poured herself a cup of tea and waited quietly.

A few days ago, Yuwen Fei's men had come to report, saying that there were important things to report before the Autumn Hunt, but there was still no news of them until today. Huai Jin waited a little longer, seeing that no one came, she coldly snorted, then stood up and returned to her room, planning to sleep. Presumably, it was not a big deal for Yuwen Fei to be so careless.

But the moment Huai Jin entered the room, she saw a person sleeping soundly on his bed, looking extremely comfortable.
