Could she play dead?

Xiao Jin lowered his eyes and looked at his own palm. The area that Wei Ruo Yi had licked before had already dried up, but that warm and slippery feeling still remained in his palm.

"Salt?" Xiao Jin felt it was strange, he raised his palm with the intent to try, but when he moved it to his lips, he suddenly realised what he was doing and immediately moved his palm away in disgust.

With a twitch of his mouth, Xiao Jin couldn't take it any longer and shivered. His brain had been crushed by Wei Ruo Yi's actions!

Xiao Jin decided to wash his hands! He had to wash it thoroughly seventeen or eighteen times before he could stop.

The next day, the Prince's Mansion became lively once again, and the carriages and horses were incessant in front of the gate.

Wei Ruo Yi slept until late morning before she finally woke up. After washing up and having breakfast, she asked Lv Rui, "Why didn't I see Wei Lan Yi?"

Today was a poetry meet, but all the famous poems and texts in Yan Jing City were invited, and there were also many talented girls from famous families, in short, talented people and beautiful women were gathered together.

Although Wei Ruo Yi also had an invitation, she knew how many layers there were in her bones.

After a while, he would keep a low profile again. He would not want to get ahead of himself, but he would want to be the best.

"The three young miss came by once this morning, but seeing that County Owner has not woken up yet, she went to attend the poetry meet." Lv Rui said.

Since Wei Lan Yi was living in the Duke Palaces, he would naturally need her post. This time, Wei Lan Yi actually had a huge advantage.

"The three young miss is really right. She actually left without waiting for County Owner." Lv E said with dissatisfaction.

"She can be considered your mistress. Don't say those words out loud in the future." Wei Ruo Yi warned.

"Yes." Lv E also felt that she was being unkind, and immediately lowered her head and said.

"It's fine if she goes first." Wei Ruo Yi stretched his lazy waist, feeling extremely happy, "Think about what happened to her last time. "Being away from us is also a matter of leisure."

"What County Owner said is reasonable." Lv Rui laughed.

After the last Red Leaf Great Assembly, who amongst the noble families did not know that the General Wei and his wife were at odds? Since they were separated like this, it saved Wei Ruo Yi the time to be on guard against that girl.

In any case, after today's poetry meet, she would bid farewell to Princess Gongbei and return to her residence tomorrow.

Thinking that he would be able to return home soon, Wei Ruo Yi's mood was also very good. After all, living in someone's home was still a guest.

Lv E took out a set of clothes and helped Wei Ruo Yi change. Then, she and Lv E helped her put on some new makeup.

Since the Esteemed Empress Chen was not here today, Wei Ruo Yi did not need to put on such an exaggerated disguise. He merely made Lv Rui put a little makeup on her face, and then smeared a little bit of rouge on her lips.

Her appearance was already gorgeous. With just a slight outline, her bright eyes and white teeth would shine brilliantly.

With the last lesson from last time, when he was almost starved to death, Wei Ruo Yi painfully thought about it and told Lv E to wrap up two peas yellow and two sugar triangles before leaving the room.

Even though the poetry meet and the Red Leaf Great Assembly were both in the Red Leaf Courtyard, the moment they entered, they could feel that the atmosphere was completely different.

Last time, most of their clothes were simple and elegant, but this time they were colorful.

In order to amuse them, there were many riddles hanging on the trees in the Red Leaf Courtyard. If anyone could guess what was going on, they would remove the riddle and find the servants arranged by the manor. This was much better than the Red Leaf Great Assembly where everyone talked in Red Leaf Academy.

Many of the noble ladies were trying to guess the character, and there were quite a few scholars surrounding them to help.

Every time he guessed one out, everyone would be overjoyed. The place where the crossword puzzle was removed was soon replaced by a new one to fill in the gap from before.

Wei Ruo Yi knew her own limits. As someone who couldn't even recognize traditional Chinese characters, she wouldn't go and join in on the fun.

To think that she was considered a top student in the modern world. To be able to instantly become a failure here was truly a terrible feeling.

She found a quiet and secluded place and sat down. This time, she brought along a handbook with her in order to get rid of the boring time. Fourth Prince not inviting them was not giving them face.

She wanted to take some time off, but someone was unwilling to do as she wanted. Before her seat warmed up, someone had already come looking for her.

"Greetings to Chong'an County Lord." The person who came was a pink-clothed palace maid, "Fourth Prince invited you."

Wei Ruo Yi...

After silently putting away the book he had just opened and tossing it to Lv E, Wei Ruo Yi stood up and followed behind the pink-clothed palace maid, and walked out from a secluded corner.

His Highness the Fourth Prince was inside a pavilion in Red Leaf Courtyard, and there were many people surrounding him. There were both men and women, it was very lively.

When Wei Ruo Yi came over, everyone's gazes turned towards him.

Without going through any deliberate "disguise", the beauty of Wei Ruo Yi's appearance was breathtaking.

Those noble children who would snort disdainfully at Wei Ruo Yi when he was mentioned, were somewhat stupefied when they saw Wei Ruo Yi leisurely walk over.

The scenery outside the pavilion was extremely beautiful.

The red leaves were spread out layer by layer like red clouds. Under the illumination of the sun, they appeared to be of different shades of color. Even the best rouge couldn't make such a magnificent yet varied color.

She was dressed in a long red dress, and although her red dress had a tinge of light, it was actually touched by the red leaf behind her, but it was not extinguished by it. On the contrary, under the contrast of the red leaf, she seemed to have walked out from a forest of spirit, with white jade as her bones, snow as her muscles, red leaves as her dress, and long hair like a waterfall.

Amazing!

Even Xiao Jin was stunned for a moment.

Wei Ruo Yi, who had removed the deliberate carving, was actually this beautiful.

Hey! They were all here!

Only then did she clearly see the person inside the pavilion. Not only Xiao Jin An, even Xiao Jin was present, but of course, her younger sister Wei Lan Yi was also present. As for the others, she didn't recognize them, so there was no need for her to know them.

"Greetings, your highness Fourth Prince, your highness, Eldest Brother Zi Ya." Wei Ruo Yi bowed.

The rest of the people all greeted the County Owner, and after exchanging greetings, some people immediately gave their seats to Wei Ruo Yi.

Eldest Brother Zi Ya? Xiao Jin silently glanced at her own cousin Zi Ya. When did these two know each other? It seems that Wei Ruo Yi had been busy at the Duke Palaces for the past few days.

Remembering last night, the light in Xiao Jin's eyes dimmed, and he subconsciously glanced at Wei Ruo Yi's lips.

Her lips were only smeared with a faint layer of rouge, making it hard to tell that her lips were originally extremely gorgeous. Now, her lips were as red as a waterlogged cherry.

"Just now, everyone was playing with the pair. Cousin Ling is here, we can continue. " His Highness the Fourth Prince laughed.

Wei Ruo Yi was momentarily stunned.

Pair pair? Are you calling someone who can't even read traditional characters?

Can she play dead!?
