Chapter 47: Pearls

"What's the situation on King Chu's side?"

Desheng replied: "The concubine Niangniang's side refused to let go, coupled with Fusang and his relatives' wishes. The minions looked, this thing couldn't be done. ”

The prince's thin lips pursed slightly, obviously this was the result that he was satisfied with.

The King of Chu and Lu Xihe were together, which was nothing more than a little more threat to him. However, he just didn't want everything to go so smoothly for King Chu. Growing up, he could easily get anything he wanted.

Glory and wealth, he was born with it; Position of power, he has it at his fingertips.

Even the rarest true love, he can have it.

Why is he?

And themselves...

"Your Highness, the slave has something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not." Desheng spoke.

"Speak." He stretched out his hand out of the pavilion, and snowflakes fell from his palm.

"For so many years, except for the Lord of Jofu, His Highness has never cared about any woman. Since you have intentions, why didn't Your Highness snatch her over? As far as the slave knows, that Lord Lu doesn't have to be the King of Chu..."

The prince looked at him slowly, his eyes were cold, "It's just a chess piece." ”

Desheng froze in recognition of each other.

It's all stupid.

"Your Highness, the second lady of the Guogong Mansion has sent a post, inviting you to go to the mansion tomorrow to taste tea." A family member stepped forward to report.

The prince glanced at the contents of the tray, not interested.

What kind of tea and flower appreciation poetry meeting is just a pretense for those children of the scholar clan to make friends with each other.

"Zhang Guogong," he changed his mind, "Lone will arrive on time." ”

Land House

Lu Xihe sat bored by the window and watched the snow, and saw Luluo and Gong Wuwu and others throwing snow balls at each other in the yard.

Her eyes lit up, and she put on her shoes and was about to go out.

Gong Wusheng happened to bump into this scene and grabbed his cloak, "Master." ”

Lu Xihe was startled, and when he looked back at him, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "You have no sound when you walk." ”

Gong Wuming looked at her in silence, and the cloak he was holding moved forward a little.

She understood what he meant, took the cloak and quickly fastened it, then walked briskly towards the people who were playing.

The pothos was playing without knowing what the world was, and a ball of snow smashed into the palace.

Gong Wuwu dodged and jumped away, and the snow ball went straight to Lu Xihe behind him.

Lu Xihe dodged sideways and looked at the few people who were playing.

Luthos's face changed suddenly, and her words became unfavorable, "Miss..."

Just when she thought she was going to be reprimanded, she was suddenly hit by a ball of snow.

Lu Xihe in front of her looked at her proudly, she understood, grabbed a handful of snow and held it into a ball and returned it to Lu Xihe.

"Don't run!"

"I've hit Miss!"

"Hahaha..."

Gong Wuming in the distance silently watched a few people, paying attention to the secret whistle from time to time.

Recently, she has been too sharp and has attracted the attention of many people.

The people who came to Lu Mansion to investigate the situation and the people who came to assassinate her have been solved several times.

Some of them have been found, and some of them are unknown.

Xing'er is not here, and he must be responsible for these things.

His gaze stopped at Gong Wuwu, who was running back and forth.

Sometimes ignorance is not a bad thing.

A strong maid with red hands from the cold, seeing the master and servant playing happily, stood not far away with the post and waited.

Lu Xihe saw that the maid was familiar, stopped playing and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Miss, the post from the Guogong Mansion is here, inviting you to go to the mansion tomorrow for a gathering." The maid handed over the post.

The pothos also stopped, took the post and opened it for Lu Xihe to see.

Lu Xihe looked at the post and asked, "What's the matter with the hand?" ”

The maid shrank back in a panic, "Miss, it's okay, it's just... Not long ago, I had chilblains. ”

Lu Xihe looked at her for a while and ordered, "Go down, Luluo, send someone to take a look at her." ”

"Yes."

"Thank you, Miss."

Two voices fell at the same time.

The green pothos glanced at the maid, saw that she was slightly strong, and despised why this person was so delicate.

A few people were tired of playing, and they had no interest in playing.

The pothos rushed to the kitchen to inspect the situation of the lunch, and when she saw that the dumplings had been plated, she went back to report in a hurry.

"Miss, it's time for lunch!"

As soon as she came in, she saw Lu Xihe sitting on a chair, and Gong Wuming beside her lowered his body and listened to her.

He has a great figure, his handsome face is as cold as ice, and there is a heroic spirit between his eyebrows.

"Ziyang-kun is very dangerous, don't fall into their trap." Lu Xihe ordered in a low voice, "Grandma Sun, send someone to take care of it." ”

"Don't worry, master, Xing'er is measured." Gong Wuming raised his eyes, and the pothos looked at him silently with a plate.

Lu Xihe saw the pothos standing at the door, looking very pitiful, and smiled slightly: "What are you doing standing there?" Call them in. ”

"Yes." Luluo hurriedly went out and called Shanggong Wuwu and a few familiar maids into the house.

As she passed by the sturdy maid, she snorted coldly.

The maid just buried her head lower.

"You've been with me for a while, and I'm happy that none of you make mistakes. I have always loved those who are faithful, and I will not do you any wrong if you treat me with sincerity. After lunch, everyone went to the pothos to receive the reward. After receiving the money, you have as much time as you want, don't come back too late. Lu Xihe said.

After hearing this, Gong Wuwu immediately stopped treating himself as an outsider and sat on the stool with a grin.

Gong Wuming coughed, and the two looked at each other and looked at Lu Xihe.

The rest of the maids didn't dare to breathe.

Lu Xihe's original intention was to treat them well today, and he was a little more patient on his face, "It's okay, sit down." ”

The pothos quickly arranged vegetables for her, and filled a small half bowl of dumplings, "Miss, please use it." ”

Lu Xihe took a bite and put it down, and the others moved their chopsticks one after another.

"What's your name?" Lu Xihe asked the sturdy maid.

"Miss Hui, slave... The slave's name is Aqing. ”

"Aqing, a nice name." Lu Xihe was a little interested in her, this maid looked much stronger than ordinary women, and she always lowered her head when she replied, looking submissive.

"Thank you, Miss, for the compliment." Her voice was hoarse, as if she hadn't spoken for a long time.

"Tomorrow follow the pothos and serve by my side." After Lu Xihe finished speaking, he ate quietly.

"Yes." Ah Qing responded.

Seeing this, the others became a little bolder and joked with each other, and the whole room was filled with laughter.

It is a rare winter solstice.

The emperor authorized King Gong to assist the government, and the big and small matters in the court began to pass through the hands of King Gong.

There has been no movement on the prince's side, but the Xiao family, who supports the king of Chu, is in trouble.

Ning Yan was so annoyed by their quarrel that he drove them all out of the palace.

I turned around and went to the Lu Mansion.

"Why is the prince here?" Lu Xihe originally sat on the warm floor to rest, and after listening to the report of the next person, he walked to the desk.

I saw a tall man stepping on the snow, dressed in black, and he was particularly eye-catching in the snow.

"I can't come to see you if I have nothing to do?" Ning Yan asked rhetorically.

"Naturally." Lu Xihe looked at his clothes, and there were dots of snow on them. I was about to reach out and pat it off, but I thought about it but didn't move.

"Are you feeling better these days?" He looked back at the door, Bai Xi hurriedly handed over the things, and then retreated.

She recognized that it was a pastry that had recently swept the capital, Bazhen Cake.

"It's better. It won't be long before I can get better. Lu Xihe personally brought a cup of hot tea and put it in front of him.

Ning Yan sat down on the stool, "As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to break your muscles and bones, not to mention that you are as delicate as you, so let's take care of it." ”

"Since the prince opened Chrysostom, then I have a reason to be lazy." She sat down next to her, smiling widely.

Ning Yan pinched her face, "You know what?" You look like a shrewd little fox. ”

Lu Xihe slapped his hand away, "What little fox?" ”

"The little fox who seduced meβ€”" he slowly lowered his head, and the distance between the two grew closer.

Lu Xihe's words flashed in his mind, if it was true, what should she do?

"What's wrong?" He saw that something was wrong with her and asked in a low voice.

Lu Xihe shook his head, gradually moved away from him, and walked to the desk, "I thought of what the emperor ordered, and suddenly I had no clue." ”

Ning Yan quickly reacted, she was talking about the new law.

Although King Qing fell, the old stubborn lost their voices. But let her, a newcomer with no power and no power, launch a new law, if she succeeds, she will ascend to the sky in one step, and if she fails, she will be shattered.

"What's the difficulty, tell me about it?" He chuckled.

Lu Xihe had already made a decision in her heart, but at this moment, she couldn't find a better reason.

"King Qing is down, but those people are still there. Once the new law touches their interests, they will definitely vigorously oppose me. ”

Ning Yan really took his heart, "A group of self-righteous people, there is nothing to fear. If you really care about them, give them to me. ”

"What would you do?" She asked.

Ning Yan was silent, "I naturally have my own way." ”

Lu Xihe suddenly understood what he said, "I'll think of a way." ”

"Today is my birthday." His voice sounded behind him, "I didn't like my birthday, but I don't know when I started to want to spend these meaningful or meaningless days with someone, and I wanted to share all my joys and all my achievements with her. When she is happy, I am happy with her; She is sorrowful, and I am as sorrowful as she is. Ruan Ruan, what do you say is wrong with me? ”

Lu Xihe turned around and looked at him.

Today is Ning Yan's birthday, which is the first surprise; His sudden remarks were the second surprise.

Perhaps, I should trust him with all my heart.

Ning Yan slowly approached, and the difference in height made him have to look down at her.

Lu Xihe stretched out his hand and gently attached to his waist, "Birthday Jile." ”

Ning Yan breathed tightly and wrapped her in his arms.

"Thank you, God, for bringing you to me." She leaned against his chest and whispered.

"I'm the one to say thanks."

If I hadn't met you, I would have fallen into darkness forever.

The strength of his arm was a little heavier.

Lu Xihe patted him on the back and motioned for him to let go.

Ning Yan obediently let go of his hand.
