With a smile on his face, Ning You quipped, "Fifth brother, why do you want to be so serious?" Could it be..."

"What do you want to do with you?" Ning Yan's tone was very unfriendly, he hadn't settled accounts with the prince about the last time, but the prince actually appeared by himself. Is he a good bully?

"As an elder brother, it is right to care about the fifth brother." Ning You said with a smile.

Ning Yan didn't want to deal with him at all, and said viciously: "Don't bother me." ”

Ning You was still smiling, but in the depths of those eyes, there was endless indifference and darkness.

He watched Ning Yan leave and didn't feel angry.

"Your Highness, he is too arrogant! How dare you..."The prince's close attendant is angry, but this fifth prince is too much.

"What to do with him." The prince disagreed, "Qinglan Pass, he has a life to go, but he may not have a life to return." I've endured it for so many years, is this month still missing? ”

The close attendant Desheng praised: "Your Highness is clever, a small plan will drive him out of the capital, and in the future, no one will oppose you again." ”

The prince smiled, and suddenly remembered the scene when he saw Ning Yan and Lu Xihe that day, "How is that girl?" ”

"Back to Your Highness, it's okay to be frightened. The things you ordered have been done, and now her answer sheet is at His Majesty's desk, and His Majesty's intention is to stuff her into the Arrest Division. ”

Ning You was a little surprised and asked, "Supervising the Arrest Division?" Father should appreciate her very much, how could it..."

"Your Highness, you don't know, Your Majesty originally wanted to arrange a good errand for her. His Royal Highness went to His Majesty this morning and wanted His Majesty to give him a marriage, and His Majesty changed his mind. ”

"My stupid brother. He will not only affect himself, but also the girl. Ning You shook his head lightly.

Desheng said happily: "Isn't this exactly what His Highness wants?" ”

"Keep an eye on that girl, don't make her too sad." After Ning You finished speaking, he walked back to the dormitory to water the flowers.

Guogong Mansion

"Superintendent?" Lu Yiran couldn't believe his ears, Lu Xihe actually passed the exam!

He obviously arranged for someone to remove her answer sheet, why did she still enter?

Lu Yiran couldn't have imagined that because of Ning Yan's relationship, the prince had long been eyeing Lu Xihe. It is not difficult to let her enter the criminal department as she wishes.

Jin Guogong's expression was rarely serious, "I recommended her, I wanted her to enter the Seventeen Officials, so that they could take care of each other in the future." But on the side of the Governor's Division, all of them are the prince's people, and I just want to interfere, but I am also powerless. ”

Lu Yiran knew what the place of the Arrest Department was, and he couldn't help but worry about her, could she hold on?

"You have more important business, she, put it aside for now."

Lu Yiran was silent for a long time, and said: "The prince and Ning Yan are like fire and water, let them fight to the death first, and when they both lose, it will be our chance." ”

"If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, and you must not be reckless."

Lu Yiran clenched his fists, and his palms were about to pinch blood, "I understand." ”

The process of waiting is always tormenting.

Just when Lu Xihe was about to run out of patience, the letter from the Criminal Department was delivered.

"Miss! It's the Inspector General! Luluo was pleasantly surprised, "What does the Superintendent do?" Miss, it said that from next month onwards, you will be the Inspector of Arrests... Palm solid, there is a grade, Miss Hey! ”

"How so?" Lu Xihe was puzzled, "The most elaborated in my answer sheet is about the revision of the legal code, it stands to reason that I should enter the Law Library, why did I enter the Supervision and Arrest Division?" ”

"Miss, the slave doesn't understand..."The voice of the pothos was like that of a mosquito.

Lu Xihe said patiently: "The Legislative Affairs Department is in charge of revising the legal code, and the Supervision and Arrest Department is in charge of chasing criminals or fugitives. There are many civil officials in the Legislative Statute Pavilion, and there are many military attaches in the Supervisory Arrest Division. ”

The pothos suddenly remembered something and exclaimed, "Miss, your body..."

Lu Xihe bowed his head and said, "I know, but the matter has come to this point, there is no way." ”

"Miss, when I was in Tiandu before, Sister Qiulan was close to me, and the slaves and maids didn't dare to get close to half a step. All the food also passed through her hands. The slave has a guess..."

Lu Xihe tilted his head, raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? ”

"The slave maid once saw that Sister Qiulan was still busy in the small kitchen in the middle of the night, and at that time the slave maid thought that she cared about the young lady, but the young lady's physical condition was getting worse and worse. After leaving her in the past few days, Miss's health has improved a little. She hid in her room that day, eavesdropping on you and the eldest young master, she must have had a bad intention. So, the slave guessed that she must have done something. Just because she understands medical skills and has the trust of Miss, Miss's health will get worse and worse? ”

Lu Xihe lowered her eyes, she also felt strange about this matter. But it's more of a disappointment, she treats Qiulan well, why would she betray herself? She knows everything about herself, and if she turns against her and tells her eldest brother, she will face a lot of trouble.

What to do? Are you going to kill her to save her from trouble?

"I know it, I'll look into this matter later." Lu Xihe's tone was light, but there was a hint of fierceness in his brown eyes.

No matter what, she would never let Tianji Pavilion be exposed to the world.

"Miss, someone's coming." The sound of the door of the courtyard door sounded "knock", and under the instruction of Lu Xihe, Luluo went to open the door.

Lu Rongwan is still dressed in white, cold and snowy.

"Fourth Miss?" Lu Pothos exclaimed, "Miss, is the fourth miss here?" ”

Lu Xihe got up from the chair and walked to the gate with a paper fan.

"Fourth sister?"

Lu Rongwan was full of questions, and it was not easy to speak immediately, so she had to say: "During this period of time, you and your eldest brother have not sent a letter to the family, and my father is in a hurry." He was anxious for you, and commanded me to come to you. ”

"You are a girl's family, why did your father ask you to come to the capital alone? What should you do if you encounter a robber or something? Lu Xihe sneered in his heart, it was obvious that he was sent by the Lu family to investigate.

Lu Rongwan looked embarrassed, her father asked her to come over, because he wanted to know why Lu Xihe would take the exam of the Criminal Department? When did she learn those things?

"It's cold outside, isn't the fourth sister coming in?" After Lu Xihe finished speaking, he stared at Lu Rongwan quietly.

Lu Rongwan was also silent, not wanting Lu Xihe to ask, "How does the fourth sister know where I live?" ”

Lu Rongwan explained: "After I arrived in the capital, my eldest brother sent someone to pick me up. However, he seems to have some misunderstanding with you, and he doesn't know where you are after you leave. So I asked the five princes who were in contact with you, and then I knew where you lived. ”

Lu Xihe smiled painlessly: "What did the fourth sister say, what connection can I have with His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, big brother will just tell you." ”

Lu Rongwan said solemnly: "Fifth sister, you tell the truth, are you with the fifth prince..." she didn't continue, two blushes flew on her cheeks, and it seemed difficult to speak.

"Huh?" Lu Xihe's face changed slightly, and in an instant she understood what Lu Rongwan was referring to. It turns out that they all think of themselves like this.

"Fifth sister, if you are angry with me because of Ning Gongzi's matter, I apologize to you, you can be angry as much as you want, but how can you not cherish yourself? Fifth Prince, haven't you heard of that person? A cruel man that everyone avoids, you must not get too close to him. Lu Rongwan hadn't sat down yet, and had already said a lot.

Lu Xihe captured her point, did she think she had thoughts about Ning Yu'an?

"Fourth sister, what's the matter with Ning Gongzi?" Lu Xihe asked as if he didn't understand.

Lu Rongwan lowered her head and said shyly: "Dad set a marriage for me and him, and we got married two years later." ”

"Congratulations to the fourth sister." Lu Xihe's tone was calm, as if he was talking about an irrelevant person.

Lu Rongwan said hurriedly: "Fifth sister, I know that you have different feelings for him, maybe he saved you." But now it's a foregone conclusion..."

Lu Xihe wondered: "How did the fourth sister know that he saved me?" ”

"When you were in distress in Yunshan Temple, he happened to pass by and save you. It was your maid who told me herself," Lu Rongwan looked around, "Huh? Why isn't she there? ”

"I see. I left her to take care of my eldest brother. What else did she say? "If Lu Xihe was still hesitating just now, now that she has made up her mind, this person will be eliminated!

"I saw that she was secretive, so I asked her in private, and then I knew that you had a private meeting with the fifth prince, which made the eldest brother very angry." Lu Rongwan said that she had a nose and eyes, as if she had seen it with her own eyes.

Lu Xi smiled instead: "What else did she say?" ”

Lu Rongwan pondered: "You are too stubborn, you have to contradict the eldest brother, and even run away from home, so angry that the eldest brother was in a coma for a day." ”

Lu Xihe's smile paused for a moment on her face, and her hand holding the teacup trembled a little, "Big brother is unconscious?" ”

"You don't know about this?" Lu Rongwan breathed a sigh of relief, "Now that the eldest brother is fine, you should not know." Although the eldest brother treats you well, he sometimes controls you too much, and it is better for you to stay away from him. Now that you're on your way, I have a few things to tell you. First, although our Lu family is down, the backbone is still there, and you must not do anything to discredit the lintel of the Lu family. Second, although you are a female official, you are a woman after all, and one day you will marry and have children. If there is a day when you are no longer subject to the Lu family, you must also keep your eyes open, find a reliable husband, and don't be blinded by power. ”

"That's what the fourth sister said." Lu Xihe responded.

Lu Rongwan was relieved: "Ruan Ruan, you seem to have grown up." ”

Where could Lu Xihe listen to persuasion in the past? Lu Rongwan sighed, sure enough, after a trip to the capital, the whole person changed.

What she didn't know was that when Lu Xihe seemed to cater to her, he had already thought of countless ways to solve Qiulan in his mind.

"Fourth sister, don't say it to anyone else today, otherwise..." Lu Xihe is gone, Lu Rongwan's enthusiasm is all extinguished, what if she grows up? In her eyes, she is still an outsider.

"Ruan Ruan, if the second brother is here, he definitely doesn't want you to be so alienated from your family." Lu Rongwan still didn't give up and said, "Dad only has a few of our children, if we don't have one heart, this family will be scattered." ”

"Heh, fourth sister, wake up." Lu Xihe beckoned, and the pothos brought a wooden tray, which contained two plates of delicate dim sum.

"This is a pastry from Jing'antang, it's very sweet, try it four sisters?"

Lu Rongwan chuckled, "You, you've liked to eat these sweets since you were a child, beware of broken teeth." ”

Lu Xihe also laughed, "I don't know moderation when I am young, but now I eat some occasionally, it's okay." ”

The two of them had tea with their own hearts, and Lu Rongwan left on the pretext of something.

Leaving Lu Xihe alone, standing at the door, his eyes as deep as the night.

"Pothos, do you think she's weird?" Lu Xihe asked.

Green pothos nodded, "Fourth Miss seems to have changed into a different person. ”

The more Lu Xihe thought about it, the more strange she felt, she was so busy that she forgot about the Lu family during this time. Could it be that something happened to the Lu family? She immediately repaired a letter and sent someone to find out about the matter.

When Lu Rongwan came out of the Lu Mansion, her face was gloomy, and she sighed deeply.

Can we go back to the way things were?

Maybe not.

She took heavy steps, step by step into the abyss of the unknown.

When Ning Yan rode to Lu's house, Lu Rongwan had just left.

"Miss, the Fifth Highness has come down."

Luluo opened the door and happily welcomed Ning Yan in, followed by Bai Xi, who was holding a box.
