Volume 1: The Palace, Chapter 58

When Lu Ziyue arrived at Hanxue Garden, Shen Xie happened to be resting in the pavilion, holding a file in his hand, lowering his head, and looking very seriously.

Lu Ziyue took a deep breath, and when she was about to step forward, Mu Hua didn't know that she came out of that corner and grabbed her wrist, shook her head gently, she lowered her voice and said: "The princess doesn't seem to be in a good mood today, don't make the prince angry when she talks later." ”

"What's wrong? Wasn't it all fine last night? Lu Ziyue looked at Mu Hua suspiciously, and then looked at Shen Xie, who was reading carefully, and his calm and relaxed appearance could not tell that he was angry.

But Mu Hua can't lie to her by saying these things for no reason, isn't there really something hidden in this?

Mu Hua shook his head: "The specific things are not clear, but the prince's face has been bad since he came back from outside, and when he just came back, he asked where the princess went, and I heard that your face was even worse after you and Princess Shangguan of Anyang went out, so although Mu Hua had a lot of doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to ask more." ”

"Don't get involved in this matter, the palace will pay attention, by the way, did the prince have breakfast?"

She squinted her eyes and looked at the front with some sorrow, Shen Xie was in a bad mood now, so if she told him about Jing Jingrong, would it cause him to be disgusted?

It's just anything else, Lu Ziyue doesn't care very much, but this kind of harmful thing has to consider the impact of many aspects when doing it, not to mention that it is still at the banquet held by Shen Xie.

"No, when I came back, I asked someone to go to the study to get the book, and then I sat here and read the book, Mu Hua guessed that it was probably the affairs of the court that annoyed the prince."

"This palace knows, and I know it in my heart, so let's go and ask the people in the small kitchen to prepare some meals, not too greasy, how light and how to come."

She glanced at Shen Xie again, and was about to step forward, but she just stepped out and took a step back, and glanced at Mu Hua: "Thank you for telling this palace about today's matter, but there is one point, this is somewhat with the meaning of speculating about the master, don't do it next time, think more about what this palace said to you last night when you have time, there are some things, you have to understand more yourself." ”

After finishing speaking, he turned around, Mu Hua looked at her back, and the sweat fell again.

Shen Xie looked at the file in the pavilion very seriously, Lu Ziyue stepped forward, and she couldn't see the joy and anger in his expression, she said: "Mu Hua said that you haven't had breakfast yet, and you went out early this morning, what are you going to do?" Why is it so time-consuming? ”

She spoke up, and Shen Xie found out that she was coming, so he smiled and said, "Why are you here?" Didn't you hang out with them? ”

"Yes, but I came back when I was a little tired, but you haven't told me why you didn't eat breakfast?" After she finished speaking, she sat next to Shen Xie and looked at half of the official document in his hand, and the words on it seemed to be the sign of the household department.

"It's a busy day, and a lot of things are piled up together and haven't been done yet, so I missed the time to eat, but it doesn't matter, I'll eat the same now." Shen Xie put down the official document in his hand, intentionally or unintentionally blocked the logo on it, and the sign of the household department was blocked by him, and Lu Ziyue couldn't see it really.

She retracted her gaze and smiled, "How did you know that I had something ready for you?" You don't care about yourself, do you still want others to care about you? ”

"I'm not like this because you're smart and capable, and you can handle everything properly." He stretched out his hand and touched her belly, "It feels much bigger than before, the imperial doctor said that the fetus will move and make trouble after the mother's growth for a period of time, so what about you?" Will he mess with you? ”

"Not yet, I don't have much experience with this, but it's not a big month, it's only been more than four months." Lu Ziyue shook his head, looked back at the back, and saw Mu Hua beckoning someone to send food here, so he beckoned and motioned for them to hurry up and send the things over.

The things sent by Mu Hua were still hot, but some of the food was a little collapsed, it should be something made in the morning from the small kitchen, but these foods were not very lucky, it didn't matter if Lu Ziyue didn't eat them, Shen Xie didn't have any thoughts about them after he came back.

After all the food was placed on the table, Lu Ziyue took a pair of chopsticks and handed them to Shen Xie: "Taste it, the things here may not be as good as those in our house, but they are not bad." ”

Shen Xie nodded, took back the hand that touched Lu Ziyue's stomach, and took the chopsticks in her hand to eat, he didn't feel hungry at all, but now after seeing these things, he also felt hungry.

Lu Ziyue saw that he was eating fragrantly, and he also had a little appetite, so he also took a clean bowl to eat with him: "I heard Xiao Qi say today that you are going to hold a banquet at night?" Why didn't you tell me about this yesterday, if you had told me yesterday, I could have helped you do some together, and you are so tired today. ”

Shen Xie raised his head and glanced at her when he ate this thing, "You are inconvenient now, it will be very tiring to do this, I don't want you to worry about these trivial matters, not to mention that you are delicate and expensive on weekdays, and you haven't dealt with these banquet matters much, Xiao Qi is different, she is used to dealing with these things when she was in the palace." ”

"I understand what you mean, but I heard that when Xiao Qi went to send an invitation to the Ningguo Mansion today, the county lord didn't seem to particularly want to come to this banquet, and he also said a lot of ugly things to Xiao Qi, although Xiao Qi helped you deal with these things, but she is still a girl after all, and she will feel uncomfortable after hearing too many ugly words, so let's say that next time she needs to deal with this matter, find someone who has the ability, at least someone who has experience in dealing with this area."

Lu Ziyue took a sip of soup and sandwiched a piece of meat for Shen Xie: "Do you know what I mean?" ”

She was careless earlier, and then she was a little more attentive, but she didn't feel any scheming in it?

Shen Xie didn't hear it at least, he nodded: "What you said is also reasonable, this matter is not appropriate for me to consider, but Xiao Qi has never told me about this matter you just said." ”

Lu Ziyue felt that what he said was very unreasonable, she put down the spoon and bowl in her hand, and explained: "Xiao Qi was originally in the mansion to deal with some things for you, if she handles it well, you and the people outside will think she is powerful, but they don't know how much she has been wronged in it, I have never felt it before, but today I heard that she was bullied by the county lord of the Ningguo Mansion before I knew how difficult it was for her." ”

Lu Ziyue's emotions rose as she spoke, and her face became more and more ugly: "That county lord directly said that Xiao Qi is a girl in the Regent's Mansion, and she is very scheming on weekdays, and many things are deliberately affecting the relationship between you and me, and she also said that the things she does outside are not a big deal." ”

After she finished speaking, she said: "But Xiao Qi is just a little woman, she has not yet married, it is already not easy for her to do these things, it doesn't matter if people outside don't understand, but if you don't understand, you can't comment too much on others, some things become true when you talk about them, and they are fake from the beginning." ”

She was filled with righteous indignation, and every word seemed to be holding grievances for Xiao Qi's words, but I don't know why, the more Shen Xie listened, the more she felt that she had other purposes.

Or is it that she wants to get something from him by borrowing Xiao Qi's matter?

The smile on Shen Xie's face gradually disappeared, and he lost a sense of sincerity: "So in your opinion, how should I deal with it?" ”

Lu Ziyue didn't expect him to be so good at talking today, and she didn't react to his meaning for a while, she was slightly stunned, looking at his eyes, the eyes that looked at her no longer had the joy at the beginning, or there were other things mixed in them.

She reacted, and her heart gradually cooled down, seeing that Shen Xie's thoughts were as deep as ever, she clearly didn't have any other thoughts, she just wanted to speak for Xiao Qi.

The smile on Lu Ziyue's face gradually disappeared: "You are very strange today, you were still smiling when you talked to me just now, but now the smile has disappeared directly, is it that I just said something that is not in line with your heart, or do you think I have any other thoughts." ”

"I didn't think so." Shen Xie shook his head, he continued to eat, "The mind of a man's family is not as delicate as that of a woman's family, I think you will be better than I think, so I didn't speak, I feel that it was difficult for the two of us to sit down and talk, which is very rare, but you are talking to me about other people's things, and I am a little uncomfortable today." ”

He poured a cup of tea for Lu Ziyue: "It is said that pregnant women have a lot of thoughts, I didn't think about it before, but now I find out that the ancients are honest and don't deceive me." ”

"So you're saying that there's nothing wrong with all the stuff I'm thinking about, right?"

Lu Zi is becoming more and more unhappy, and her current unhappiness is directly expressed on her face, and Shen Xie can see it at a glance.

Shen Xie was also a little helpless at the moment, he originally thought that Lu Ziyue had ulterior motives, but he didn't expect that he was thinking too much.

He also helped his forehead: "It's me who is wrong, maybe I'm too tired today so my head is not clear, and the words I said have not passed my head, you must not be angry because of this matter, by the way, the county lord of the Ningguo Mansion you just said, I seem to have a little impression of her, and her name seems to be Ning Jingrong?" ”

He turned the topic very bluntly, and Lu Ziyue didn't know what to say for a while, but Shen Xie was rarely so good-tempered today, and she had nothing to be angry about, so she nodded.
