Chapter 47: The Palace
Behind the stone lions with angry eyes stood two guards in military uniforms, and they could feel the murderous aura emanating from them before they approached. It is not the first time that Jiang Shangui has entered the palace, but this time he paid special attention to Lu Chengxuan when he entered the Three Princes' Mansion.
Jiang Shangui, who was standing in front of the Three Kings' Mansion, straightened his clothes and stepped on the steps of the Three Kings' Mansion.
……
Since receiving the piece of paper given by Jiang Shangui yesterday that has Zhao Muxi's habitual interest, Lin Qing has been trying hard to memorize the content of the paper. It's just that the content is easy to remember, but it's not easy to do, but whenever something goes wrong, it will arouse the suspicion of Lu Chengxuan and other well-intentioned people.
"Hall Master Lin, the Three Princes' Mansion has sent someone." The coachman shouted in a low voice outside the door.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Shangui's speed was so fast, Lin Qing stood up and said, "Got it, I'll go out." ”
After thinking about what he was going to say when he saw Lu Chengxuan later, Lin Qing pushed open the door and walked out.
The person who came to pick him up was a white-haired old man dressed in a gorgeous costume, and when he saw Lin Qing coming out, he smiled and nodded at Lin Qing, but Lin Qing felt that his smile was a little imperceptible hatred.
Is it your own delusion? Lin Qing couldn't help but wonder a little, it was clearly the first time he met this old man, why was he hostile to himself? However, the doubts in Lin Qing's mind only flashed, and he bowed to the old man with a light smile. No matter what the old man was thinking, she couldn't make a mistake and let someone grab the handle and affect her own plan!
"Come with me, girl." The old man still had a smile on his face, and his demeanor was very polite.
Lin Qing followed the old man out of the inn and got into the carriage prepared by the old man.
Today, it is rare to see such a warm but not hot, warm but not cool, breezy weather, but Lin Qing is not in the mood to enjoy such a wonderful time. Lin Qing's heart was as turbulent as a speeding carriage, and at this moment, her mind was full of the scene of seeing Lu Chengxuan later.
What would he ask, and how would he answer so as not to make him suspicious? Could he have seen through Jiang Shan's lie and sent someone to pick him up just to invite you into the urn?
Lin Qing shook his head, reached out and patted his cheek vigorously to free himself from the cranky thoughts in his head.
"Girl, the palace has arrived." The old man said in a deep voice.
Lin Qing stepped out of the carriage with his skirt, and followed the old man behind him towards the Three Kings' Mansion.
Somehow, the closer he got to the Three Kings' Mansion, the more Lin Qing felt uneasy. She has done many things to deceive people under the guise of others, although it is not what she wants, but for the sake of Ning Canglan, she has never repented and complained, let alone be timid and panicked. This time pretending to be Zhao Muxi, she should have been as indifferent as usual, but she couldn't calm down no matter what.
Why is that? Is it because of the handsome prince Lu Chengxuan in the Three Kings' Mansion?
"Fauber." The guards guarding the door saluted respectfully to the old man who led Lin Qing.
The old man's gaze was always glued to Lin Qing, and when he heard this, he nodded expressionlessly, but what he said was directed at Lin Qing: "Girl, the palace is not as good as the market, please respect yourself, don't look around, let alone have delusions about things that don't belong to you." ”
This was really not light, and Lin Qing couldn't help but scold: "What's the matter with this stinky old man?" Could it be that he already knows his purpose? But he really didn't have a reason to know, how long had he been in the capital? Even if he tried his best to investigate, it would be impossible for him not to find out any important information! ”
Although he was full of doubts and complaints, Lin Qing only gently tugged at the corners of his mouth in response. As the saying goes, people have to bow their heads under the eaves, and if she cares with this old man today, it must be herself who can't please her.
The Three Princes' Mansion was not as prosperous and beautiful as Lin Qing imagined, but it was full of bookish atmosphere. The pavilions, water pavilions, and building corridors in the house have their own characteristics and are quite ingenious, which makes people feel comfortable at a glance.
From a distance, I saw Lu Chengxuan, dressed in white, standing alone in an elegant lakeside pavilion, his black hair tied up with a white jade crown, his posture handsome and elegant, standing with his hands like a dusty immortal.
Lin Qing took a deep breath and walked in front of Lu Chengxuan with an elegant gait.
"Is that you?" After seeing Lin Qing's face clearly, Lu Chengxuan asked with some surprise. But even if he was surprised, he had a shallow smile on his face, which made people look very comfortable.
Lin Qing nodded shyly, lowered his eyes and said with a light smile: "The little girl Zhao Muxi, I have seen His Royal Highness the Three Kings. ”
Lu Chengxuan couldn't tell what he was feeling at the moment. If he remembered correctly, he had already seen the woman in front of him. At that time, in Muhe Town, he decided that this woman was not Zhao Muxi, why did she call herself Zhao Muxi today?
Looking at Lin Qing quietly, the smile on Lu Chengxuan's face cooled inch by inch, "If I'm not mistaken, this girl's name is Lin Qing." It is said that Miss Lin has always liked to deceive people, could it be that the same is true today? ”
Lin Qing replied slowly but firmly: "The little woman lost her memory because she accidentally fell off the cliff, so she doesn't remember many things in the past, but the little woman can be sure that she is Zhao Muxi. ”
"Oh?" Lu Chengxuan's gaze gradually became complicated, "Dare to ask why the girl declares herself Zhao Muxi so firmly?" ”
Over the years, because Lu Chengxuan's search for Zhao Muxi has been extremely strong, he has been well known in the capital, and his search range has even reached foreign countries. Although Zhao Muxi is the daughter of a criminal minister, there are still many people who came to the door to impersonate Zhao Muxuan's identity because they saw that Lu Chengxuan's status was noble, very much loved by the emperor, and had a deep affection for Zhao Muxuan, but the identities of those women were finally recognized by Lu Chengxuan.
Lin Qing at this moment is in his eyes, just like those impostor women.
"The prince may not believe this, since she saw the prince in Muhe Town that day, what the little woman has been lingering in her mind is the face of the prince. The most important thing is that when the little girl first saw the prince that day, her heart throbbed for no reason, which will be the same, as long as she saw the prince and the little woman, she felt very depressed in her heart, so the little woman dared to guess that she had gone through emotional entanglements with the prince. Lin Qing said half-truthfully.
When she met Lu Chengxuan, her heart hurt for no reason, but she didn't have Lu Chengxuan's face in her head as she said, on the contrary, she never thought of Lu Chengxuan.
Lu Chengxuan squinted his eyes slightly, not letting go of any expression on Lin Qing's face. For a moment, the face of the woman in front of him actually coincided with the face of Ah Fan who was haunted by his dreams!
"Lord Wang, the little woman knows that it is impossible for the prince to believe in the little woman lightly, so the little woman will leave." Lin Qing raised his head as he spoke, his eyes locked on Lu Chengxuan, and his eyes were filled with tears. said that he was leaving, but Lin Qing's steps did not move a bit.
Judging from Lin Qing's experience, such a pitiful appearance, I am afraid that few men can stand it.
After waiting for a long time, I didn't hear Lu Chengxuan say the words of retention.
