When Qin Hong was about to stand up and admit punishment, Lu Manxi took the lead and said: "Senior brother, it's all my fault, I forced my senior sister to go out to play!" ”

"You?" Lu Zuo knew it, but he asked knowingly, "Really?" I think you have the heart to protect your sister! ”

Lu Manxi lowered his head, glanced at Qin Hong kneeling beside him out of the corner of his eye, and then shook his head again and again, "It's indeed what I want to go out, I haven't seen the excitement of this capital since I was a child, so I want to go out and have a look, and it has nothing to do with my junior sister!" ”

As he spoke, Yin Ji had already strode into the hall with a leather whip in his hand, and presented the leather whip to the master with both hands.

Lu Zuo took the leather whip and pinned his hands behind his back, "Manxi, this is a place of right and wrong in the capital, you have to make a fuss about it, right?" Fortunately, I ran into your second brother today, if there is really trouble, we will all be implicated! How dangerous this capital is, do you know? ”

Qin Hong turned his face and muttered injected: "You are afraid of being implicated, I am not afraid, I just can't get used to it!" ”

Lu Zuo shook his head and sighed, "My little junior sister, the implication is small, and the plan that Master and we have worked so hard to manage has come to naught!" ”

After hearing this, Qin Hong lowered his head in shame. Lu Manxi begged and looked at Senior Brother, and said, "Senior Brother, if you want to fight, beat me!" ”

Lu Zuo pointed at Lu Manxi with a leather whip in his hand, and said angrily: "I said you, just protect your junior sister like this!" One day she has an accident, see if you can still protect her! Lu Zuo said and threw the leather whip to Yin Ji, "Qian'er, you come, thirty leather whips are indispensable!" ”

Lu Zuo turned around and went back to the inner room, Gao Yun followed, and Lu Zuo heard Lu Manxi's sound outside the inner room. Gao Yun saw that the eldest brother had a solemn expression with his eyes closed, and couldn't help asking: "Big brother, why are you so strict with them, don't you just go out for a walk?" ”

Lu Zuo shook his head, his eyes staring at Gao Yun, "You don't know, both of them are only children in the family, if you don't discipline them strictly, I'm afraid that one day I will ......" Lu Zuo said and began to shake his head and sigh again.

Gao Yun saw that the eldest brother looked strange, and couldn't help asking: "Big brother, I have a word, I don't know if I should say it or not!" ”

Lu Zuo nodded, "Say it!" ”

"I've recently noticed that you seem to be a different person since you recovered from your injury!" Gao Yun looked at the eldest brother suspiciously.

Lu Zuo also asked with interest: "Oh! Brother, let's talk about it! ”

Gao Yun continued: "In the past, I couldn't guess what was going on in your heart, and you were never happy or angry. Now I often see you shaking your head and sighing, and you are much more careful than before, and you can always see that you look preoccupied! ”

Lu Zuo lowered his head, he seemed to think that Gao Yun was right, since he knew that he might only have two or three years to live, it seemed that his shoulders had become heavier, and he was always worried about whether he could complete the mission in these short three years, so his temper became more and more irritable, even Gao Yun A big grin person can see his current emotions, and those who are scheming can easily see what is on his mind. Lu Zuo frowned, secretly competing in his heart, he must try to restrain his emotions, otherwise it will be difficult to achieve great things.

"Master!" Yin Ji entered the house to break the silence, "It's over, I see that Brother Manxi is already in pain, do you want to call Lang Zhong to take a look?" ”

Lu Zuo walked in front and came to the hall, and saw Lu Manxi lying on the bench, holding his buttocks with his hands and screaming in pain, and Qin Hong next to him was comforting with a few tears. Lu Zuo also knew that they were acting coyly, and he didn't want to impose a reprimand, but just ordered: "Senior sister, help Manxi back to your room, Qian'er, you go and ask Lang Zhong to show him!" After a while, I remember to go to the canteen for lunch, Qin Hong, you send the food to Manxi first, got it? ”

Qin Hong promised to say "yes", and with Yin Ji helped Lu Manxi to go out.

After Gao Yun saw their backs gone, he said to Lu Zuo: "Big brother, I have done what you explained!" After that, he took out three copies of the road guide from his arms and handed them to Lu Zuo, and then asked, "Big brother, what are you doing in King Ning's Mansion this morning?" ”

Lu Zuo's eyes were indifferent, "Give a big gift!" ”

"Oh? Gift? Gao Yun asked curiously, "What kind of gift?" ”

"Of course, it's a great gift related to King Ning's future!"

Lu Zuo's point made Gao Yun want to know even more, "Big brother, brother knows that you want to do a big thing, but since I am your brother, as long as the eldest brother needs me, the younger brother will definitely do it, but the eldest brother is always so mysterious and secretive, which makes me feel a little weird!" ”

Lu Zuo knew his worries, so he just patted Gao Yun on the shoulder, "Brother Xian, the closer you get to me, maybe the more dangerous your situation will be, are you afraid?" ”

Gao Yun didn't care about this, patted his chest, and swore solemnly: "Big brother, you don't know me yet, what have I Gao Yun been afraid of!" ”

Lu Zuo nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, when the time comes, you will naturally know, Brother Xian, and I will make it clear to you, but it is not the time yet, maybe I don't know, it will be safer for you." ”

In the prince's mansion in the afternoon, the leafy and tall camphor tree can be said to cover the sky and the sun, so the prince's mood is much calmer than before these days, and he just woke up from a nap, just outside the door, the housekeeper knocked on the door and said: "His Royal Highness the prince, Lord Xu of the military department is already waiting in the study!" ”

Prince Liu Yan yawned on the recliner and stretched, "It's coming soon!" So while asking the crown princess Xu Fang to change her clothes, she asked, "Fang'er, let's see if you want to meet your father together!" He hasn't been here for a long time, let's talk about it! ”

Xu Fang Gege smiled, "He has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, you can talk, it's rare for him to come, okay, I'll leave my father to eat together at night, and it's not too late to talk then!" ”

"Then you have wronged your father-in-law, I have asked him to help recently, so I don't have time to come here to see you, and I have something to do with letting him come today!" Liu Yan looked at Xu Fang lovingly and said, "Okay, I'll do what you want tonight, if you don't say it, I also want to invite our father to have a meal together!" ”

Liu Yan said that he should put on his regular clothes and went to the study in the West Chamber. As soon as Liu Yan walked into the door, he asked Xu Bingde excitedly, "Father-in-law, how are things going?" ”

Xu Bingde was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, the treasure you gave is really ingenious, even the craftsmen of the palace are full of praise, they are all called peerless and rare, this time on the birthday of the saint, we can finally have an eyeball!" ”

"Bo's eyeballs are small, the most important thing this time is to win the favor of the emperor's grandfather, as long as he can please him, anything rare is worth it!" Liu Yan then asked, "How did the craftsman do?" Nothing went wrong, did it? ”
