Chapter 617 Not worthy of her
Xinmeng turned her head, slightly curled the corners of her lips, and for the first time after seeing him today, she had a smile on her face.

Although the smile was very shallow, the haze in Xiao Yi's heart was swept away.

Immediately afterwards, he heard her say: "My daughter is not angry, nor has she complained about the Seventh Prince."

After finishing speaking, Xin Meng tightened the cloak on her body, left the pavilion with brisk steps, and went straight to the direction of the side hall.

Looking at the beautiful back that was going further and further away, Xiao Yi couldn't help squinting his eyes. He always felt that this matter was solved too easily, which gave him an unreal feeling.

However, when he thought that Xinmeng had restrained his emotions today and did not say something about retiring the engagement in a fit of anger, he was relieved and gradually became a little happier.

Presumably, Xinmeng has changed her mind and is willing to accept this marriage.

In order to repay Xinmeng's tolerance for him, he felt that he had to take the initiative to think more about her. For example, in naming Shen Yunluo, he must make Xinmeng feel at ease.

After making up his mind, Xiao Yi returned to the side hall with a happy mood.

Taking advantage of Xiao Yi and Xinmeng's conversation outside, Shen Yunluo had already washed her face, and there was no time to reapply rouge and water powder, so she kept her face plain.

Without the coverage of rouge, Shen Yunluo's face showed a little fatigue, and her complexion was also pale.

Seeing Xiao Yi coming in, Shen Yunluo shyly and timidly looked over with affection, but Xiao Yi was so immersed in joy that he didn't notice her at all, and returned to his seat without looking at her.

Seeing this, Shen Yunluo bit her lips lightly, her brows were furrowed, she was so wronged that she was about to cry again.

The Eighth Prince who sat across from her raised his eyebrows, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.

This Shen Yunluo always deliberately targets Xinmeng, and likes to show others a weak appearance, as if everyone owes her, even he can't stand it.

Seeing Xinmeng and Xiao Yi come back one after the other, the woman's face is calm, while the man's face is obviously happy, and the eyes of the emperor sitting high above lightly flicker.

"Yi'er, Shen Xinmeng, come to the front."

Xiao Yi just sat down, when he heard the words, he stood up again, first glanced in the direction of Xinmeng, then stepped forward, and stood still under the jade steps.

Soon, Xinmeng came over and stood quietly behind him, bowing her head and eyebrows, with a respectful attitude.

Before speaking, the emperor glanced at the relaxed eighth prince from the corner of his eye.

Obviously, Shen Xinmeng was surrounded by enemies, her father, concubine sister, and the seventh prince all stared at her, each with their own plans, and he didn't know where his son's confidence came from.

His eyes fell on the beautiful young girl under the jade steps. Today, he saw with his own eyes that she faced Shen Yunluo's provocation, and she easily resolved the crisis with four or two moves. Shen Yunluo suffered a dark loss, and he admired her even more.

She is not a weak and incompetent person who allows others to bully her, let alone a reckless person who cannot protect herself.

From the initial bad impression, it slowly changed later, and now it is even more discovered that she is a pearl that deliberately conceals her brilliance, and once she reveals her true self, she will surely shine.

Perhaps, Lang'er's confidence comes from her dexterity and ingenuity.

Thinking of this, the emperor shifted his gaze to his other son, and sighed secretly in his heart, Yi'er's talent can be considered outstanding, but it's a pity that he is unwilling to be under others, and his covetous heart is increasingly revealed, after all, he is not worthy of Shen Xinmeng.
