There was a saying, "Unexpected encounter," and another saying, "When two rivals meet on a narrow path, the brave wins."
Ban Han was riding on horseback, and Xie Wanyu was getting down from the sedan. Their eyes met, and Ban Han could clearly see the ridicule and smugness in the other's eyes.
What was she smugness about? Was it because she could become a Prince's wife?
What was the use of being a Prince's wife? In a few years, the world would no longer belong to the Jiang family. Furthermore, Jiang Luo was such a troublemaker. If it wasn't for his noble status, based on his personality, she wouldn't even want him to be her boy toy.
"Lord Ban, what a coincidence." Xie Wanyu touched the large pearl on her earlobe and looked at Ban Han with a rosy face. When she saw that Ban Han's earrings were a pair of blood-red gemstones, she withdrew her hand and calmly said, "How come I haven't seen you come out to play these past few days?"
"Wrong." Ban Han shook his index finger. "I'm not a Lord, I'm a Junjun."
When Xie Wanyu heard this, she covered her mouth and laughed. "Look at my memory. I actually forgot that you've profited from a disaster and been conferred the title of Junjun. Congratulations, congratulations."
She was just a Junjun, and she wasn't the only Junjun in the Great Ye Dynasty. What was there to be proud of? Furthermore, when spring came next year and she married the Second Prince, this little b * tch would have to be obedient no matter how arrogant she was.
Disaster? What disaster?
She was just mocking her for breaking off the engagement. Ban Han didn't care about this small matter at all, so Xie Wanyu's words didn't affect her at all. Ban Han played with the horsewhip in his hand and carelessly said, "Miss Xie is dressed so beautifully today. I wonder if Second Young Master Xie's eyes have recovered?"
Ban Han never beat around the bush when arguing with others. As long as someone mocked her in a roundabout way, she would mercilessly mock them back. Furthermore, she would poke them where it hurt and didn't care about the elegance and nobility of a noble. With this unparalleled ability of hers, not many women in the capital dared to provoke her.
Xie Wanyu dared to provoke her today because she felt that she was about to become the Imperial Concubine. No matter how arrogant Ban Han was, he would not dare to offend her.
Who knew that she had underestimated Ban Han's courage and stupidity. He actually dared to talk about her second brother's eyes in front of her. This woman was really beautiful on the outside but vicious on the inside. In any case, Second Brother had once been engaged to her. Now that Second Brother had only lost an eye, she was gloating over his misfortune. It was really hateful.
But no matter how dissatisfied she was, she couldn't express it at this moment. She was the future wife of a prince, so she had to be dignified and generous. Before she married the second prince, she couldn't make any mistakes. She didn't want to end up like Ban Han, who was rejected by the man's side before the wedding and became the laughingstock of the whole city.
"Thank you for your concern, Junjun. Second Brother is fine." Xie Wanyu took a deep breath and forced a smile at Ban Han.
"Miss Xie, please go upstairs. Our lady is waiting for you in the private room upstairs." A mama came out of the teahouse next door. When she saw Ban Han, she bowed to him and said, "Greetings, Junjun Ban."
Ban Han recognized that the mama was one of Shi Feixian's servants. She glanced at the teahouse next door, nodded to the mama, and left without looking back.
Ban Han, who hadn't said a word from beginning to end, deliberately sneered and then followed behind her sister's horse.
Xie Wanyu's face was livid as she watched the Ban Family's siblings walk away as if they didn't exist. She wanted to pull them down from their horses and give them a good beating. However, she didn't do anything. She just smiled at the mama who came down to pick her up and said, "Thank you for waiting, Sister Shi."
She had to endure and endure.
Shi Feixian saw Ban Han, so she sent the mama to pick up Xie Wanyu. She saw Ban Han ride away through the crack in the window, then turned to Princess Kang Ning and said, "Ban Han is becoming more and more arrogant."
"She's been spoiled since she was a child. She's been rejected by three different men. The rumors outside are so unpleasant. Of course, she's desperate," Kang Ning said sarcastically. "Anyway, she can't get married. She can only flaunt her mouth."
In terms of relationship, she and Ban Han were distant cousins. However, there was hostility between their family and the Princess Royal, so she and Ban Han didn't have a good relationship. She heard from her mother that the Imperial Grandfather wanted to depose the Crown Prince and make her father the Crown Prince. However, the Princess Royal kept interfering and finally succeeded in making the Emperor the Emperor.
Although her family didn't dare to mention these old grudges from more than ten years ago, it didn't mean they would forget what the Princess Royal had done.
As the two were talking, Xie Wanyu came upstairs. When she saw her two best friends, Xie Wanyu's face immediately darkened, "Ban Han, that little b * tch. I really want to tear her mouth off." Thinking of the pair of blood jade earrings Ban Yu was wearing, which set off her snow-white and tender face to the point that it seemed like water could be pinched out, the hatred in Xie Wanyu's heart grew even stronger.
Jealousy was an inextinguishable fire that could burn people's reason.
"We came today to celebrate your good fortune. What's the point of mentioning such a troublesome person?" Princess Kang Ning smiled and asked her to sit down, "Next year on this day, we'll call you Princess Consort."
"Why are you bringing this up?" Xie Wanyu's cheeks were red with embarrassment. "I think you're here today to make trouble for me."
"Look at your blushing face. Today, I finally understand what it means to be angry out of humiliation." Shi Feixian reached out and pinched Xie Wanyu's cheek, "Congratulations to meimei for marrying such a good man."
Looking at Xie Wanyu's shy and happy face, she thought of Rong Xia, whom she had secretly liked for many years, and her heart felt a little bitter. She looked up at Kang Ning and didn't say anything. Don't think she didn't know that Kang Ning also had feelings for Duke Rong.
In the dead of night, Ban Han turned over in bed and fell into a dream.
In the dream, she was wearing thin clothes and looked at the table full of delicious food and the man at the table, as if she was stupid.
Ban Han knew she was dreaming. She even looked at herself and the person with the blurred face from the perspective of a bystander. This feeling was a little strange. What was even stranger was that she felt grateful to the man at the table.
Soon, she saw herself walking out of the house, wearing a thick fur coat.
It was snowing heavily outside. She saw noble ladies laughing at her and gesticulating at her, but they didn't dare to do anything to her.
Then she saw herself dead, lying in the thick snow. Bright red blood splattered on the white snow, like a big red peony in full bloom. It was extremely beautiful.
Ban Han couldn't help but sigh. She was indeed a peerless beauty. Even in death, she died so tragically.
The winter wind blew with snow, but Ban Han didn't feel cold in her dream. The wind whimpered like a woman's cry. She stood in front of her body and looked at the arrow in her back. She suddenly realized. Was this the ending of her last dream?
So she would be so miserable in the future?
Not only would she lose her title, but she would also lose her life?
Fortunately, the white fox fur coat she was wearing looked very valuable, so she didn't die too shabbily.
"Creak, creak."
Suddenly, there was a series of footsteps behind her. The sound was hurried and chaotic, as if someone was rushing over.
"Mas, Master, Miss Ban is gone."
Master? Who?
Ban Li turned around and saw a man in a black fur coat behind him. The man's figure was tall and straight, and his hands that were exposed outside his sleeves were as white as jade. Even if he couldn't see his face, Ban Li was sure that this was definitely an extremely beautiful man.
She couldn't see the man's face, but she heard the man's voice.
"What a pity."
Ban Han nodded. It was indeed a pity. After all, she was so beautiful.
"It's rare to see a living person in the capital. Let's give her a proper burial."
Ban Han let out a long sigh of relief. It seemed that not only was he handsome, but his heart was also beautiful.
The man suddenly turned his head and seemed to see her standing beside him. She looked down at the complicated palace dress on her body and proudly straightened her back.
Unfortunately, the man didn't see her. Instead, he said in a complicated tone, "Find out who did it. Have someone … have someone take good care of her family."
"Bang!"
The servant girl on night duty, Ruyi, heard the noise from inside the room. She was so frightened that she scrambled up from the bed and quickly ran into the inner room. Then she saw Junjun Jun sitting dazedly at the table in her undergarments. There was a broken teacup by her feet.
"Junjun Jun, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just had a dream." Ban Han suddenly raised her head and smiled at her. "It's nothing. Go back to sleep."
"It's cold outside. This servant will help you to sit on the bed. Ruyi lit two more lamps to make the room brighter." It's still early. "
Ban Han lay back on the bed and said to Ruyi, "When did Shizi sleep last night?"
Ruyi stilled. She was Junjun Jun's servant girl and didn't know what happened in Shizi's yard. She could only shake her head.
Ban Han didn't mind and said, "I don't know if there's any good white fox fur at home. I want to use it to make gloves, fur coats, and collars."
"You only have a few good fire fox furs in your storage, but you don't have any white fox furs." Ru Yi didn't understand why Junjun, who usually liked colorful things, would suddenly want white fox furs. However, as a servant, she only needed to satisfy her master's request.
"I understand. Go to sleep." Ban Han pulled the quilt up to her chin and closed her eyes. Would a red cloak with a circle of white fox fur look good?
Wearing a white fox fur coat with a red palace dress would definitely match her skin well. She could try wearing it in winter.
A few days later.
"Junjun Jun," the old maid in charge found Junjun Kang Ning with a sad face. "The fox fur you liked last time has been bought by someone."
"Who dares to rob me?" Junjun Kang Ning raised her eyebrows. "Didn't the buyer know that I wanted it?"
