"This time, this Hong Yi is in deep trouble. He will definitely be punished. "
"Yes, let's go back and watch the show."
"First Madam doesn't like him to begin with, and today he actually beat up his brother. Although Hong Gui is not a good horse rider, but Third Madam is not to be trifled with."
"I find it strange. Hong Yi has always been evasive when encountering things in the past. Why is he so tough today?"
"I don't know, maybe he has lost his cool. But looking at how he hit Hong Gui, it was clean and neat, I don't know where he learned martial arts. "
"In short, he is in deep trouble this time."
"Of course, of course."
Seeing four or five guards from the House of the Marquis barge into the academy, the scattered students began to whisper among themselves.
The students in the school were all related to Marquis Wu Wen's household, so they knew of Hong Yi's position in the household and the subtle relationship between them.
In short, many people thought that this time, Hong Yi was in deep trouble.
"First Madam called me back?"
Faced with these four or five expressionless guards and the whispered discussions of the people around him, Hong Yi did not show too much shock, worry, or fear. Instead, he confidently flicked his sleeves and did not stand up. He only used his finger to rub the thumb ring on his finger.
"But, I have an appointment with a friend today, and I will be a guest at the mansion. I think I should make an appointment with this friend first before returning to pay my respects to First Madam. "
Hong Yi said unhurriedly.
"Appointment with a friend? Within the Marquis's household, ordinary people are not allowed to enter, this is a rule that Young Master Yi must know. Besides, today First Madam is looking for you, if you don't arrive on time, it will be difficult for us as servants. "
When one of the guards heard Hong Yi's words, his expressionless face revealed an almost imperceptible sneer. Although his words were polite, there was no doubt that if Hong Yi refused, they would make a move.
"Ordinary people? Not ordinary people. Hmm? Since you are here, then go to the directorate opposite and invite Princess Zhennan of the Divine Wind Nation for me, she said that she will be a guest at the Marquis's household today. Hmm? Take this ring with you and use it as a proof of identity. That way, you won't be able to use it when you meet her guards. "
Hong Yi took out the iron thumb ring in his hand and placed it on the table as he spoke to the guard.
"Princess Zhennan wants to go to the manor!" When the four or five guards heard the words' Princess of Zhennan ', their faces immediately showed extreme surprise. But soon after, their faces showed a puzzled expression as their eyes stared at the metal ring on the table in Hong Yi's hand.
This iron thumb ring had a peculiar shape. There were chrysanthemum-like cloud patterns on it, and at the same time, the body of the thumb ring was engraved with extremely exquisite and twisted characters. It was the language of the Divine Wind Nation. And that iron thumb ring was the Chrysanthemum Cloud Pattern Steel of the Divine Wind Nation, which was even more expensive than gold of the same grade.
One of the guards took the thumb ring and weighed it in his hand. When he saw the words on it, his expression changed.
"This really is Princess Zhennan's thumb ring. The last time Princess Zhennan went to Prince Rong's Mansion to read books, the First Madam of Prince Rong's Mansion prepared for a few days. Her etiquette was very thorough. Even the Emperor was very happy when he heard about it … If she goes to our manor …"
Several guards looked at each other, and one of them couldn't help but whisper.
"Today, I have an appointment with Princess Zhennan. You take this thumb ring to the Directorate and tell her that Hong Yi invited her. If she comes later and doesn't see me, she might cause some rumors … "Hong Yi said again.
"Okay." This guard was really afraid of causing trouble.
"Go back and tell the First Madam to prepare. I will go to the Directorate," the head of the guards said hurriedly. Then, he took the thumb ring and hurried to the Directorate.
At this moment, when they heard the conversation between Hong Yi and the guard, many people's eyes bulged. No one had expected that things would turn out this way.
The title of Princess Zhennan of the Godly Wind Nation wasn't conferred by the king of the Godly Wind Nation, but by the Emperor of the Da Qian Dynasty. When the Yun Meng Nation attacked the Jade Capital, they sent an army from the South Sea to attack. At that time, the Godly Wind Nation was a vassal state of the Da Qian Dynasty. They sent troops to intercept the Da Qian Navy. After a fierce battle, they defeated the army of the Yun Meng Nation.
Later, the Emperor rewarded the king of the Godly Wind Nation with the title of Princess Zhennan for his unborn daughter. (If it was a man, it would be the Prince of Zhennan.)
Now that Princess Zhennan was of age, she came to the Da Qian Jade Capital to study and enter the palace to visit the Emperor. The Emperor, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress liked her very much and officially adopted her as their daughter. Even when she went to the houses of the nobles and ministers, the madams and lords had to be polite. Otherwise, if the Emperor heard about it, it would cause a big problem for the Da Qian Dynasty.
Etiquette was the most important thing in a big family, not to mention in front of a foreign princess.
Although these guards did not understand why Hong Yi knew Princess Zhennan, Hong Yi had a genuine thumb ring. This was a serious matter, and they did not dare to neglect it.
Shh …
After seeing one of the guards leave, the other guard hurried to the Marquis's Mansion. Hong Yi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
'Princess Luo Yun, don't blame me for using you as a shield. But I, Hong Yi, am borrowing your power. I will definitely make it up to you.' Hong Yi thought.
That day, Hong Yi saw through Luo Yun's identity on the "Guanlou Ship" and went to strike up a conversation with her. He did not care about the propriety of a scholar and talked about cultivation with her. He had the idea of getting to know her.
Hong Xuejiao got to know "Duke Li Junior" Jing Yuxing. The two of them became close, and it was very likely that they would become a couple. In the future, there was a chance that she would become the Duchess of the Marquis's Mansion. Because of this, her status in the Marquis's Mansion rose steadily. Even the First Madam had to have some scruples.
However, when Hong Yi got to know people, he also saw that they were pure and innocent, which reminded him of the little fox in the valley.
The reason why Hong Yi dared to hit Hong Gui today was also because he had a little idea. Otherwise, he would have chosen to temporarily avoid it.
That day, Luo Yun asked Hong Yi to play with her, and now it came in handy.
'Although this matter will make Doctor Zhao lose face, and my days in the future will be even more difficult, but … I did not intend to stay in the Marquis's Mansion for long. When the imperial examinations are over and I become a Juren, it will be perfectly justifiable for me to move out.'
Hong Yi thought.
"Hong Yi … why did you only come to me now … I have something to tell you. But this month has been too busy, and I've been in the Imperial Palace. " Just as Hong Yi was deep in thought, a sudden noise came from the entrance of the Academy, and a clear and melodious voice could be heard.
It was Luo Yun, whom he had met on the Guanzhi ship that day.
A woman studying in the Imperial College, a member of foreign royalty, and a Chrysanthemum Cloud Ring. It was easy for Hong Yi to find out that she was the 'Princess Zhennan'.
Hong Yi hurriedly stood up, and saw that Luo Yun had changed into a casual female dress. She looked slender and elegant.
As soon as Luo Yun saw Hong Yi, she spoke in a very innocent manner, and then took the thumb ring from her hand and handed it to Hong Yi. "Marquis Wu Wen's Mansion, I've wanted to go there for a long time. Lord Marquis Wu Wen is an extraordinary person, and even my Lord Father often mentions him. Come, let's go to your house and have a chat. "
As she spoke, she turned around and pulled Hong Yi out of the Academy.
Only then did the students of the First Academy recover from their daze.
… …
Marquis Wu Wen's Main Residence.
Two women sat in the main hall, and a group of servant girls waited on them.
Among them, sitting at the very front was a woman dressed in a light green feather robe with golden threads. Her hair was tall and straight, and she had a pure gold hollowed-out peacock hairpin in her hair. Beside her stood four to five servant girls dressed in silver rat fur coats, and all of them were beautiful and charming.
This woman's face had no wrinkles, and she looked to be in her thirties or forties. Between her brows, there was a graceful and scholarly air, but her slightly straight eyebrows gave off a sharp aura.
In her arms was a kitten that was white from head to toe.
This woman was Madam Zhao of the first branch, who was in charge of the internal affairs of the seven to eight hundred people in the Marquis's Mansion.
"Elder Sister, who in our Marquis's Mansion doesn't say that you're good at managing the family? For people like Hong Yi, this younger sister has to say that I don't like him. If he was in another noble's family, he would have been killed by him in the dark. How could he be as lenient as my sister? She gave him money every year, rice every month, and never abused him. She even let him study quietly. Who knew, he was actually such an ingrate. Marquis instructed him not to practice martial arts, but he still secretly practiced. Obviously, he wants to fight for his dead slut mother's reputation. He wants that slut's reputation to be above my sister's, and break the rules of the Marquis's Mansion. Look, what a vicious heart. This time he injured my Rong Pan, and also Gui Er. You cannot be lenient anymore, you must make a decision. "
At this time, the woman below Madam Zhao spoke. This woman was dressed very luxuriously, and as she spoke, her lips moved, and her teeth were sharp.
"I already know the cause of the matter. Your Hong Gui was at fault for causing a ruckus. But this Hong Yi actually dared to break Marquis's ban and secretly practice martial arts. I have no choice but to enforce the family rules. Otherwise, how will the seven to eight hundred people in the Marquis's Mansion be managed? "
A cold light flashed in Madam Zhao's eyes, but her tone was very calm.
"I have already sent someone to call Hong Yi, he won't dare not come."
At this time, a guard hurriedly walked in.
"What? You brought Hong Yi here? Then ask him to come and kneel in the courtyard first. "Madam Zhao saw the guard, and her tone was very calm, and she touched the kitten in her hands.
"Princess Zhennan is coming to the Marquis's Mansion, and she is already on her way. I came first to inform you, Madam." The guard hurriedly said.
"What?" Madam Zhao suddenly stood up.
"Quick, light the incense, tidy up the maids, and go to the door to welcome them. Do not spoil the etiquette!" Madam Zhao immediately ordered! She looked nervous.
