Chapter 205 The Rendezvous (1)

"The lord is back?" Ban Xiyu's first reaction was: "It's only been a few days, has Nanhuai Mansion already taken care of it?"

Qingshuang replied: "I don't know exactly what the situation is. If you are confused, why don't you ask the prince yourself? The prince is talking to the master and the old lady in the front hall right now."

Ban Xiyu nodded: "Well, I'll go and have a look."

She put down the things at hand and was about to go to the front yard after tidying up, but before she walked out of the courtyard door, she heard a voice from the other side.

Ban Xiyu followed the prestige, but saw the servants of the Ban family leading in front, followed by a tall man with an extraordinary temperament——

"My lord, be careful that the road is slippery, the land has just been drenched in water just now, and now it's drenching wet..."

Ban Xiyu didn't notice what they said, she looked back a little, and immediately saw two guards, one tall and one short, two steps behind Fu Guan.

She stopped in her tracks, and looked suspiciously at the two guards—the faces were completely unfamiliar, and they didn't seem like the pair of brothers who usually followed King Xuan Ping.

At this time, the tall guard seemed to have noticed the gaze from not far away.He raised his head and met Ban Xiyu's suspicious eyes.

The "guard" smiled at her suddenly, and made a gesture quietly.

Ban Xiyu: "..." She was suddenly blessed, and murmured, "Brother Wen..."

At this time, the servant who was leading the way also saw her: "Miss, what?" He suddenly changed his words: "Why is the princess standing here? The prince is going to look for you."

Fu Guandao: "Please lead the way. There is nothing else to do here. Please report to Master Ban. I will talk to Master Ban later."

The servant answered "Yes" and immediately left with the idlers.

Ban Xiyu took a step forward.She first looked at Wen Jisheng who was dressed in disguise: "Why did you change into another outfit and look?" Then she looked at Fu Guan: "Why is the lord together with Brother Wen?"

Fu Guan took a step back and walked to the inner courtyard first: "It's a long story, let's go in and talk."

Ban Xiyu asked Qingshuang to dismiss the maids in the courtyard, and immediately said: "There is no one around right now, so don't worry about the walls having ears." She glanced and heard the silent voice:

"Can you tell me what happened on the night of the posthouse assassination? Where is Xiyue?"

"Miss Ban, don't worry, don't worry." Wen Jisheng took a big gulp of tea, and at the same time raised his chin in the other direction: "Isn't the person you're looking for right there?"

"Where?——" Ban Xiyu turned her head quickly, and the short guard took off the disguise on her face behind her——

"It's me." Lou Xiyue said: "I'm sorry, I'm not in a position, so I can only meet you in this way."

Seeing her, Ban Xiyu breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "So you all disguised yourself as bodyguards, I thought..." She paused, and immediately asked:
"I heard from Xuan Miao and Xuan Yi that there was an accident on the night of the assassination. You went after the killer of the Ecstasy Alliance, why did you come back with the prince?"

Wen Jisheng: "Don't talk about it, it's bad luck. The rescuers from the Ecstasy League that day were so powerful, Xiyue and I couldn't take him down, and we were almost caught in an ambush."

Lou Xiyue said: "Fortunately, we met Fu Guan's men and horses on the way, so we were able to escape. Afterwards, the people from the Rapture League took advantage of the chaos and escaped, so we went back to Nanhuai Mansion with Fu Guan."

"So that's how it is." Ban Xiyu asked: "Then the prince is visiting Ban's mansion at this moment, but Nanhuai mansion has everything taken care of?"

Fu Guan: "No, to be honest, I'm visiting your mansion this time because I have other important matters to discuss."

Ban Xiyu thought about what Fu Guan said to the servant just now, and asked: "But when Pingshui encountered difficulties? Could it be that the prince wants to ask grandfather to help?"

"Exactly." Fu Guandao: "I heard that the Ban family has a high prestige in the Huaijiang Mansion. I would like to ask Master Ban to call the local medicine merchants to buy medicinal materials for the epidemic and send them to Nanhuai Mansion."

Ban Xiyu: "Plague?"

Lou Xiyue said: "After the flood, the people of Nanhuai Mansion were properly resettled. But not long after, a sudden disease suddenly spread among the people."

"This disease spreads extremely fast and has a wide range. All the infected people suffered from vomiting, diarrhea, and persistent high fever. All of a sudden, people were panicked." Wen Jisheng wondered:
"Hey, it's strange. The epidemic in Nanhuai Mansion is very serious. Why, haven't you heard the news?"

Ban Xiyu really didn't know about this: "I've been waiting for news at Ban's house for the past few days, but I haven't heard any news from Nanhuai Mansion. I don't know how far the epidemic has developed?"

Fu Guan: "It's a bit tricky. A few days ago, there was not enough medicinal materials in Nanhuai Mansion, so we had to buy some from the surrounding towns."

Ban Xiyu: "This matter is related to the people's livelihood, and the Ban family is also duty-bound. For my grandfather, I will ask him to send more people to help."

"So, I would like to thank Miss Ban." Fu Guan maintained his superficial politeness: "But apart from the epidemic, there is another important matter that needs to be discussed."

As he said that, he looked back at Lou Xiyue, but quickly looked away.In an instant, mixed emotions appeared in his eyes: "It just so happens that both of you sisters are here, maybe it's a good time to change your identity."

The voice fell, and there was a sudden silence around.

Fu Guan's tone was calm, without any change in emotion: "Or, you can also take this opportunity so that Jiaolou Xiyue can recognize her ancestors and return to the Ban family."

Lou Xiyue and Ban Xiyu were silent.

They glanced at each other, looking hesitant.

Lou Xiyue: "I..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Wen Jisheng interrupted abruptly: "Don't be in such a hurry, right?"
"The most important thing right now is to deal with the floods and epidemics in Nanhuai Prefecture. Let's put the identity of Miss Ban and Xiyue aside for a while, so why not?"

Wen Jisheng didn't know what to think of, and said again: "Oh, could it be that King Xuanping, you can't wait to ask Miss Ban to marry you, and want her to go back to be your princess?"

Speaking of this, the smile on the corner of his mouth gradually cooled down: "Twisted melons are not sweet, even if you are a prince, you should ask Miss Ban if she is willing?"

Wen Jisheng's tone was not kind, pushing the tense atmosphere to the freezing point.

Fu Guan ignored his hostility: "When the imperial decree was delivered to the Ban's house, it was not clearly stated in black and white? I was the one who was replaced by the bride and was deceived. Even if I ask for an explanation now, it is reasonable .”

With that said, Fu Guan paused slightly.He glanced lightly at the sound of silence, and then looked away calmly: "Whether Miss Ban is willing or not, I think everyone here is very clear about the fate of disobeying the imperial edict, so I don't need to repeat it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lou Xiyue asked him coldly: "What do you mean by that? When you were in the capital, you promised me that you would not embarrass me or the Ban family. Could it be that you want to break the contract? "

Fu Guan met her questioning gaze.His pitch-black pupils looked closely at Lou Xiyue: "Whether to break the contract, it's not just a matter of your words?"
