Episode 18 (5)

Changming stared at the ruined grass and trees on the ground, his eyes were gloomy, but he didn't expect that a lowly official slave had such a sharp gaze, and no one else found the problem, but he saw it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoWhy didn't I notice it? He reflected. Also, what caused these plants and trees to shrink? How did the princess find out? Changming found that since he followed the princess, there were more and more questions in his heart, and there were more and more things he didn't understand.

"Princess, what should we do with these grasses and trees?" Qing Yao asked Yu Zimo. These problematic things can't just be piled up in the yard, not only messy and smelly, but also dangerous.

"You guys watch and deal with it," Yu Zimo had a lost expression of interest on his face.

When Qing Yao saw the princess's expression, she knew that her attention to this matter had passed, and she made a look at Chang Ming.

Changming found someone to get the grass and trees away and clean up the yard again.

By the time the yard was cleaned up, it was already late.

Yu Zimo wrinkled his nose and said to Qing Ran, who was still in the house, "The smell of dead grass in this yard is too strong, it will take a while to disperse, let's go outside for dinner." ā€

Qing Ran nodded obediently. He hadn't eaten since he entered the mountain in the morning, and he was really hungry.

This was the first time Yu Zimo invited him to eat together. Although they used to eat together, but in the house, if they went out, they usually ate their own. Yu Zimo suddenly invited him, and he was not surprised, because he had adapted to Yu Zimo's erratic personality, and she was whatever she said. ……

"Where is the princess going to eat?" asked Qing Yao.

"Not far from here, there is a noodle stall with good noodles. Yu Zimo said.

So Qingran, Yu Zimo, Qing Yao, and Changming went to the noodle stall together. The evening breeze is like smoke, and the twilight is like diluted ink, rendering the scenery on the street. When they arrived at the stall, there was already a customer at the stall.

Changming walked in front, and the first thing he saw was that this guest was the official slave during the day - Lu Ye. An official slave was eating out so presumptuously, Chang Ming's eyes widened.

Lu also looked up and saw the four of them, squinting their eyes in the twilight, "What a coincidence." His gaze fell on Qing Ran.

"See you again. Qingran said to him.

"Do you know?" asked Yu Zimo.

"We met outside of Willow Town, just after you saved me. Qingran said.

"That's a coincidence. Yu Zimo's eyes also narrowed.

"The way you look now is very different from the way I saw you. Lu also said with a smile.

Qingran smiled calmly. The last time I saw Lu Ye, he had just been beaten and bruised, and he was penniless, and he was very embarrassed. "When we met before, I didn't give my name. My name is Xiao Qingran. ā€

"I know," Lu Ye said, "I'm afraid that no one in the entire Eastern County doesn't know now, you are the son of the Great King, the prefect here - Xiao Qingran." ā€

"It doesn't matter what my identity is," Qingran said, "Last time you let me go and invited me to dinner again, this time I invite you, let's make friends." ā€

"You, a noble prince, want to be friends with me, a lowly official slave?" Lu also asked teasingly.

"As I said, I don't care about my identity anymore, and, in my opinion, Lu Ye, you are not a person who cares about identity and looks down on yourself. ā€

After Qingran finished speaking, Lu Ye raised his head and smiled heartily, and said magnificently: "You are very interesting, you are a friend, I also made a friend." ā€

Qingran saw Lu Ye's appearance, and smiled heartily. "It's a pity that there is no wine here, otherwise, I would have had a few drinks with you. ā€

"It's the same with noodle without alcohol. Lu also beckoned to the lady who sold noodles and asked her to serve four large bowls of noodles. Prince Qingran is in for a treat.

"You two are really arrogant. Yu Zimo sat next to Qingran and looked at the two people who were familiar at first sight, "Thanks to you, I have free noodles to eat today." ā€

"What is the princess, I am terrified and honored to be able to eat noodles with the princess. Lu also covered his chest with one hand and bowed deeply.

"You're a good talker. ā€

……

Changming listened to the conversation of the three princesses, and felt that he had no head or tail, and he was confused. As if they had known each other. But how could a prince know a lowly official slave and be favored by an official slave. It's just that a prince and an official slave know each other, after all, they are in the same country. And how could the princess be connected to them?

"Let's talk about you, since you met in Yangliu Town, why did you come here?"

"Yes, why are you here?" Yu Zimo asked the doubts in Qingran's heart. When he met Lu Ye, although he was also an official slave, he could command soldiers, move freely, and be at ease, how could he become an inferior official slave here?

Lu also put down his chopsticks and smiled lightly, "Originally, I stayed well in Yangliu Town, but because the town's official's wife seemed to favor me, and the wives of several other officials also treated me well, there was a misunderstanding, and it turned out to be like this." ā€

"How can this be......" is also unfair.

"It must be your usual misconduct that will cause you to be like this. Yu Zimo said.

Lu also squinted and continued to eat noodles.

"I think he really had an affair with those officials' wives to get to this point. The princess and the prince were talking, Changming didn't dare to interject, and whispered to Qingyao.

Qing Yao looked at this Lu Ye, who was white and clean-skinned, always squinting, smiling rather than smiling, revealing frivolity, and didn't think that the princess and prince should get too close to him, and looked at Lu Ye coldly.

The faces of the four came up.

"Let's try it, the taste and texture of the noodles are not top-notch, but they are also excellent in the area. Lu also said to the four of them.

"I've been here before. Yu Zimo said, "Its ingredients are very special. ā€

Yu Zimo said so, it shouldn't be bad. Qing Ran tried to taste it and couldn't help nodding, this should be the best noodle he had ever tasted.

Changming and Qing Yao had been here with the princess, so they naturally knew the taste and ate it in a big gulp.

After eating a bowl of noodles, Qingran and Changming asked for a second bowl.

Lu Ye waited for Qingran to eat almost enough, and asked with a smile: "You can also see the problem with those things today, right?" He was referring to the defeated grass and trees that Yu Zimo brought back.

The chopsticks in Qing Ran's hand paused for a moment and continued to eat noodles. He did see that after living in the mountains for so many years, this bit of common sense was still there. It's just that he couldn't think of the reason, so he didn't speak rashly.

"What do you think is going on?"

"I don't know. Qingran said that he was not lying, and he wondered in his heart.

"What does the princess think?" Lu also moved the stool to Yu Zimo's side, his little eyes blinking charmingly.

Chang Ming's eyes widened, this official slave was really presumptuous.

Yu Zimo just smiled slightly.

"The princess should be very concerned about this. Lu also said again.

"This is the place under my husband's jurisdiction, shouldn't I care?" Yu Zimo looked at Xiao Qingran with a confused expression.

Qingran, who was eating noodles, heard Yu Zimo call him husband, and looked at him with eyes that seemed to be affectionate, and he almost bit off his chopsticks.

"Yes. Lu also smiled and said, "So does the princess have a clue now?"

"Not yet, but I'll find out. ā€

"If there is a need for me to do it, please ask the princess to command, and Lu must only look forward to the princess. ā€

Yu Zimo smiled faintly, and the night hid the light in her eyes.
