The Changqing Of Gojoseon felt that he didn't quite understand his niece's thoughts. There was no time to hide this kind of thing. Who would run to the Emperor and walk right into his trap? Looking at his nephew's expression, he also had the same natural expression. He instantly felt speechless.
The Emperor favored the Ban Family so much because they … … were so stupid that it was reassuring?
"Your Highness, Junzhu is right," Rong Xia put down his teacup, "You were wrongly accused. You have to let His Majesty know."
The Changqing Of Gojoseon looked at Rong Xia in confusion. This person's brain wasn't working well. How could he be right?
The present age's mind was as small as a needle. If he wasn't careful with his words, it would be a taboo for a long time, much less this kind of thing. He glanced at Rong Xia and then at Ban Han. Was it because of his beauty that he lost all reason?
He really couldn't tell that Rong Xia had the same hobby as him.
After hearing Rong Xia agree with his words, Ban Han felt that Rong Xia was more and more pleasing to the eye. Not only was he handsome, he was smart, and most importantly, he had good taste.
This wasn't the first time that Ban Han noticed Rong Xia's good points.
The more Chang Qing Wan looked at the three people, the more annoyed she felt. She waved her hand: "You can go home. I won't entertain you."
The Ban Family siblings had always been open-minded. Seeing that the Changqing Of Gojoseon wasn't interested in their suggestion, they patted their butts and left. They didn't feel the excitement of witnessing the Imperial Family's plot at all.
"I knew that if I bought these talking gadgets home, I would definitely cause some trouble," Ban Heng said to Rong Xia, who came out with him, with an "experienced" expression. "When I was young, I bought a parrot home. Who knew that the feathered beast would speak vulgar words? My mother was so angry that she gave me a good beating."
Rong Xia heard this and smiled: "That's quite interesting."
When he was young, he didn't have time to play with these things. His family didn't allow him to lose his will. He had never experienced this kind of mischievous behavior.
"Heir Ban!" On the other side of the street, several dandy young masters dressed in red and purple waved at Ban Heng. Seeing that Ban Han was also there, these young men took out their fans and waved them, putting on an elegant appearance.
Ban Han almost burst out laughing. She waved at Ban Heng and said, "Your friend is calling you. Go over yourself."
When Ban Heng heard this, he happily ran over. It could be seen that he really had a good relationship with these debauchees.
"Princess," Rong Xia looked at Ban Han's arm, "I heard some rumors a few days ago. How is your injury?"
"Rumors?" Ban Yu blinked his eyes, his little expression looking particularly innocent. "You mean the matter of the Second Prince breaking my arm?"
Rong Xia was indeed worried about this matter. During the Autumn Hunt, he could see that the Second Prince and Ban Han were not on good terms. Neither of them were willing to suffer losses. Even if others said that the two of them fought in front of the Emperor, he would not be surprised.
With such a small arm and leg, how could it withstand a man's fist?
Ban Han wanted to lift up her sleeve to show Rong Xia, but she felt that it was inappropriate. She used her hand to show the area, "It's nothing. It's just a small area."
Her fingers were fair and tender, just like a skinned and washed spring onion. They were so fair and tender that they were adorable. Her two fingers were three fingers wide, and her watery eyes were like small furry animals. She looked a little cute, but also a little pitiful.
"In the future, if you meet someone like the Second Prince … you should stay away from him," Rong Xia thought, "A wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. Bear with it for now. Remember to take revenge in the future. The most important thing is that you don't let yourself get hurt."
Ban Han lightly stomped her feet on the ground. She looked away, not meeting Rong Xia's eyes. She was too embarrassed to say that she had deliberately schemed against Jiang Luo. "He laughed at me for being rejected several times. He also laughed at my father for being mediocre and useless. Of course, I can't bear it."
Rong Xia wanted to say that life in this world was not satisfactory. No one could have a smooth sailing and be carefree. But looking at the little girl's big sparkling eyes, he swallowed his words, "There are many ways to deal with a person."
"But I'm too lazy to think of other ways," Ban Han was very calm, "It's a waste of my brain."
Rong Xia laughed involuntarily. These words … did sound like something Ban Han would say.
"What if you can't beat this person, but his status is higher than yours?"
"I haven't met him yet," Ban Han thought seriously, "When I meet him, I'll tell you."
Rong Xia: He really shouldn't talk about this with a favored princess.
"Sister." Ban Heng ran back and said to Ban Han, "I'm going to watch a cockfight with my friends. You go back by yourself."
"Be careful," Ban Han took out two banknotes. One was worth 200 taels, the other was worth 100 taels. She looked at them and then gave the banknotes worth 200 taels to Ban Heng, "Take it."
"Sister, you're so good!" Ban Heng took the banknotes, got on the horse, and left with the other young masters.
Rong Xia looked at Ban Heng's cheerful back. He felt that he had a new understanding of the Ban Family. They could bury a pile of gold and precious stones in the ground, but they could only take 200 taels with them when they went out to play. He really couldn't understand this family.
"Duke Rong," Ban Han bowed to Rong Xia, "I'll also take my leave."
"Princess, I'll give you a ride," Rong Xia got on the horse and said to Ban Han with a smile, "I hope you don't dislike me."
"I don't dislike you, but this place is not far from my home. I also have guards with me. Normal people won't dare to touch me," Ban Han tilted her head and thought, "It's boring for you to go home alone. How about I send you back first?"
The smile on Rong Xia's face froze. He then bowed to Ban Han, "Thank you, Princess."
The Ban Family and Cheng Anbo's guards all looked at Rong Xia. The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Ban Han didn't notice that the guards' expressions were strange. She got on the horse and said to Rong Xia, "You're so beautiful. I'm really worried that some bandit will take you as a husband."
Rong Xia heard this and chuckled, "Are you joking with me, Princess?"
Ban Han rubbed the horse's head. The horse started to move forward slowly, "I'm praising you. You're a gentleman, a feast for the eyes."
Rong Xia felt that he couldn't continue this conversation. In front of Ban Han, he didn't know what to say.
"Princess, you're beautiful," Rong Xia rode the horse, still half a horse's length away from Ban Han, "Wherever you are, everything else pales in comparison."
"Someone else praised me like that," Ban Han said indifferently, "But not long after, he eloped with a woman from a brothel."
Rong Xia was silent for a moment. He looked at Ban Han, whose expression didn't change much. He didn't know if she really didn't care about the past, or if she was just using indifference to hide her emotions.
"Are you talking about … Xie Erlang?" Rong Xia still asked the question out loud.
"Careful!" Ban Han reached out and pulled Rong Xia's sleeve. Rong Xia twisted his body on the horse's back, and a small stick used to prop up the window hit the horse in the face. The horse whinnied in pain.
Ban Han raised his head and looked upstairs. He only saw the profile of a young woman hurriedly closing the window. This profile was somewhat familiar.
Rong Xia hurriedly calmed the horse and said to Ban Han, "Thank you, Princess."
"You're welcome." Ban Han stared at Rong Xia's jade-like appearance. If he was disfigured, how many women in Jing would be heartbroken?
The guards of the Duke of Cheng 'an's Mansion wanted to go upstairs to investigate, but Rong Xia stopped them. "There's no need. I think it was just an accident. Fortunately, the Princess was here, so I could avoid this disaster."
"It's a small matter. Don't mention it." Ban Han waved his hand generously, "Boye Rong, you're too polite."
Rong Xia smiled. For the rest of the journey, he didn't say the word "thank you" to Ban Han. Instead, he told Ban Han some folklore that was easy to understand. Ban Han listened attentively and repeatedly asked what happened next.
"Princess, I've arrived." There were no other women in Rong Xia's home, so it wasn't appropriate to invite Ban Han to his home alone. He could only say, "I hope that Princess and Shizi can often come to my fu to play in the future. My fu is small and quiet. If Shizi and Princess have time to come, I'll definitely welcome you."
"I'll definitely come to disturb Boye in the future." Ban Han took out a gilded invitation, "In two days, it's my grandmother's birthday. I invite Boye to the Grand Royal Residence for a drink."
"Many thanks for Princess's invitation. Then I'll disturb you in two days." Rong Xia dismounted and bowed to Ban Han, "I'll have to trouble Princess to send me back home."
Ban Han thought for a moment and then bent down on the horse to look at Rong Xia, "Then tell me, what happened to that scholar?"
"Later, the Princess found out that the scholar was a traitor. The Princess was furious. Not only did she divorce him, she also had the Emperor take away his scholarly title and never hire him again."
"That's a good ending!" Ban Han clapped and smiled, "I like it."
Rong Xia looked at her bright smile and unconsciously smiled, "As long as Princess likes it."
"Then I'll leave." Ban Han heard the ending she wanted and said goodbye to Rong Xia in a good mood. She patted the horse and the horse trotted away.
Rong Xia stood in place and watched as Ban Han and the guards she brought with her walked further and further away. When they couldn't be seen anymore, he turned and walked through the front door.
After he entered the inner courtyard, he stopped smiling and said to Du Jiu, "Immediately investigate that household and the Changqing Of Gojoseon … … forget it, don't worry about him for now."
"Yes!" Du Jiu cupped his hands and turned to leave.
When Rong Xia was the only one left in the study, he couldn't help but laugh.
This was the first time he was sent home by a woman. This was really … … interesting.
"You're actually sending Duke Rong home?" Ban Heng came home and heard that Ban Han was sending Duke Rong home. She was stunned, "Sister, are you being kind or are you looking down on him?"
"What do you mean?" Ban Han was confused, "I'm sending him home. How is that looking down on him?"
"He's a seven foot tall man. A woman praised him as good-looking and sent him home. He didn't give you a hard time because he has a good temperament." Ban Heng shook her head and sighed, "Sister, you don't understand men. Men care a lot about face."
"I'm such a beautiful woman sending him home. How can he lose face?"
"No matter how beautiful you are, you're still a woman." Ban Heng waved her finger, "Do you understand?"
For a man, who could accept becoming the object of a woman's protection?
"Why don't you say this when you ask me to help you solve your problems?" Ban Han rolled her eyes, "Why do you men have so many problems? Aren't you pretentious?"
Ban Heng, "Is family the same as outsiders?"
