Feeling extremely ashamed, Dong Shuyu couldn't help but look at Zhu Xiuyuan, hoping that Zhu Xiuyuan would come out and explain.

Li Qingnu was thoughtful and noticed Dong Shuyu's abnormality immediately. She held Dong Shuyu's hand and asked hurriedly: "Shuyu, what's wrong with you?"

This sentence awakened Zhu Xiuyuan, and he immediately said: "Brother Li, you misunderstood!"

"Misunderstood...misunderstood?" Li Jiye was surprised and stopped even sending people to look for something.

"Well, I misunderstood, Shuyu is not the wife of a lower official, she is... my wife's sister!" Zhu Xiuyuan explained.

"This..." Li Jiye's expression changed, and he apologized to Dong Shuyu and Zhu Xiuyuan respectively: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Xiao Wang was confused. I hope Brother Zhu and Miss Dong don't take it seriously. Xiao Wang apologizes here.

Got it!"

"Brother Li, you don't have to be like this!" Zhu Xiuyuan supported Li Jiye, "This was my mistake. I should have introduced you earlier. It's not Brother Li's fault. There is no need to apologize."

Li Qingnu, who was holding Dong Shuyu's hands tightly, saw this scene, and the smile on her face stopped, because Li Qingnu also thought that Dong Shuyu was Zhu Xiuyuan's wife.

However, Li Qingnu was also a smart woman, and she hurriedly held Dong Shuyu's hand and continued to discuss the two pearl flowers... The redness on Dong Shuyu's face gradually disappeared, she relaxed physically and mentally, and began to communicate happily with Li Qingnu again.

"Husband!"

Just at this moment, a shout of joy and excitement sounded.

And accompanied by the sound of soft footsteps.

Needless to say, it was Dong Shuzhen who ran over screaming.

This is Zhu Xiuyuan’s wife.

Dong Shuzhen ran in two steps and stopped next to Zhu Xiuyuan. She pulled Zhu Xiuyuan's arm and stared at the many strangers who appeared in the house with her eyes wide open. She knew that some prince and princess had come to the house. She expected

They must be these strangers.

Dong Shuzhen's big eyes were shining brightly as she stared at Li Jiye, Li Qingnu and others, looking a little distracted... I don't know why she came here!

Zhu Xiuyuan thought that Dong Shuzhen might be here to "see something strange".

After all, they are the prince and princess from the Liang Kingdom, a rare sight on weekdays!

"Nonsense!"

Dong Cheng was angry. He stared at Dong Shuzhen angrily and scolded: "The prince and princess are here. Zhen'er, how dare you be so rude? Have you forgotten what your father taught you in the past? You haven't seen the prince and princess yet."

!”

When Dong Cheng became angry, Dong Shuzhen's entire small body shrank. She hugged Zhu Xiuyuan's arm tightly with both hands, and used Zhu Xiuyuan's body to hide from Dong Cheng's sight...

"You..." Dong Cheng was furious, but in front of the Prince and Princess of Liang, he couldn't teach Dong Shuzhen a lesson on the spot, so he was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.

Zhu Xiuyuan quickly came out to put out the fire. He pulled Dong Shuzhen forward and said to Li Jiye and Li Qingnu: "Brother Li, Your Highness the Princess, this is the concubine of a lower official. Madam, please meet the prince and princess soon."

"Oh!" Dong Shuzhen agreed, bending her knees and bowing: "Daughter Dong Shuzhen has met the prince and the princess."

Li Jiye hurriedly waved his hands and said: "No need to be polite, sister-in-law does not need to be polite, Xiao Wang and Brother Zhu are considered brothers, there is no need to be so outspoken, haha..."

Li Qingnu and Dong Shuyu had already walked over, and the two women finally let go of each other's hands.

Li Qingnu's face was as gentle as the full moon, and she smiled and said: "Sister Zhen'er is so polite." Then Li Qingnu took a step forward slightly and said with a smile: "Sister Zhen'er is lively and cute..."

However, just when Li Qingnu took a step forward, Dong Shuzhen took Zhu Xiuyuan's arm and took a small step back. She hugged Zhu Xiuyuan's arm even tighter, her big eyes widened, staring at Li Qingnu who was smiling.

Qingnu, there is a hint of vigilance and caution in your eyes.

"...and Mr. Zhu look like husband and wife."

Li Qingnu continued to finish her sentence, but the scene was a little awkward, so she stepped forward and stepped back.

However, the embarrassment on her face quickly disappeared, and it was once again filled with a joyful smile.

Li Qingnu looked at Zhu Xiuyuan again and said with a smile: "Young master Zhu is a handsome young man and has such a good wife. He has really envy many people in the world..."

Li Qingnu said this originally to close the distance with Dong Shuzhen and eliminate the invisible barrier.

However, when Li Qingnu looked at Dong Shuzhen, she saw that Dong Shuzhen was holding Zhu Xiuyuan's hand and taking half a step back. Her face, which looked a little childish and a little baby fat, was full of vigilance.

Li Qingnu was stunned and at a loss for a moment.

Dong Shuzhen seemed to feel that it was not safe to take a step back, so she simply stood in front of Zhu Xiuyuan, vaguely protecting Zhu Xiuyuan behind her...

The smile on Li Qingnu's lips froze, and a very funny thought popped into her mind: "Sister Zhen'er, are you afraid that I will steal her husband?"

Li Qingnu laughed dumbly.

How is this possible!

She secretly thought: "Although Mr. Zhu is a rare talent in this world, the emperor highly respects Mr. Zhu and even calls him brother, but... I am the princess of a country, and my father will not agree to my marriage.

What's more, Mr. Zhu already has a wife."

Just when Li Qingnu was thinking wildly, he heard Dong Shuzhen suddenly shouting in one direction: "Master, Master, this way, we are here!"

Dong Shuzhen screamed, jumped, and waved her hands, instantly attracting everyone's attention, and then everyone's eyes turned to where Dong Shuzhen was waving.

Li Qingnu looked blankly in that direction. It turned out that there was an old man in ragged clothes standing in front of the Moon Gate, holding a huge wine gourd and drinking heavily...

Li Qingnu was suddenly startled. This old man seemed...

When she took a closer look, she saw that the ragged old man had finished drinking the wine, and the huge wine gourd no longer covered his face.

Li Qingnu's eyes suddenly widened, her mouth opened slightly, and the faint smile on her face instantly turned into ecstasy.

"Master!" Li Qingnu shouted, hurriedly holding up the hem of his skirt and trotting over with small steps, "Master, why did you live here? Master... I miss you so much... Master, last time you were

Why did the old man leave without leaving a word..."

Master?!

Li Qingnu actually called that old man his master?

That old man is naturally Hong Tianbao, the elder of the Beggar Clan, the old beggar.

But this princess from the Liang Kingdom actually called the old beggar her master. This was very strange.

It exceeded everyone's expectations.

Zhu Xiuyuan, Dong Cheng, Liu Wencai, and Dong Shuyu were all stunned.
