Xiao Qi spoke to Princess Anyang in Anyang Palace, and Lu Ziyue also spoke in Shen Yuan and Shen Xie.

She had just pushed open the door with Mu Hua's support, and saw Shen Xie and Chu Cong discussing government affairs together.

She bent down and blessed: "I've seen the prince." ”

When Chu Cong saw her, he hurriedly put down the file in his hand, clasped his hands into fists and saluted: "I have seen the princess regent, the princess is a thousand years old." ”

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Xie next to him, picked up the file he had just put down again, and said, "Since the princess is here, then I won't bother you here." ”

After he finished speaking, he pushed open the door and left, Mu Hua also left with him, and the two of them closed the door very carefully when they walked out of the door.

Lu Ziyue took a few steps forward and walked to Shen Xie's side: "If you come here today to disturb the prince's official business, please forgive the prince." ”

After Shen Xie heard her say this, he put down the text he was holding, and he took Lu Ziyue's hand and took her to sit down behind the screen.

There was a large piece of ice next to the screen, and the wisps of cold air spread to Lu Ziyue's side through the good screen, and the heat on her body that was contaminated outside disappeared in an instant.

Shen Xie said: "You and I don't have to see each other so much, it's just that you rarely come to Shen Yuan, do you have something to look for me this time?" ”

"It's not a big deal, it's just that the weather has been too hot recently, although there are ice cubes in the house, but if I go out, I still feel uncomfortable, my body is not very convenient now, I should have been lying on the bed more, but the doctor means that even if you want to lie down, you have to go out for a walk on weekdays, otherwise there will be difficulties in production in the future, so I want to go to Lingshan to relax."

She smiled slightly, and touched her slightly bulging belly with both hands: "But these are a little careful thoughts of my daughter's family, if you don't want to, I can not go." ”

"How?" Shen Xie immediately shook his head, his eyes involuntarily moved on Lu Ziyue's stomach, and after looking at it for a while, he raised his head to look at her face, and his words were quite worried, "Your face is really bad these days, what the Imperial Doctor said is right, lying down too much will not benefit your body, so let's go to Lingshan tomorrow after I am done with things." ”

It was expected that Shen would agree, but it was unexpected that he would follow.

Lu Ziyue was a little surprised by this: "It's just that I heard that the national teacher has been here for several days, if you are really not busy with official business, how can you let him enter the mansion?" In fact, you don't have to be like this, if you want to go, I will also call Mrs. Shangguan and Princess Anyang, Mrs. Shangguan and I are very close to each other, Princess Anyang is pregnant together, if you are with the two of them, you can rest assured. ”

She never thought that Shen Xie would follow her from the beginning, not to mention, Lu Ziyue had already made arrangements, and her going to Lingshan this time was not just as simple as going out for a walk.

Seeing her so surprised, Shen Xie couldn't help but smile and stretched out his hand to rub her head: "No matter how busy I am with official business, I can't let you go alone, no matter how good others are, after all, I am not as attentive to you." ”

After he finished speaking, he hugged Lu Ziyue into his arms, and his movements were very careful, he was afraid that he would accidentally press Lu Ziyue's child after his movements were big.

The voice was hoarse and magnetic, and his slightly stubble chin rested on Lu Ziyue's hair, and he rubbed it gently: "You care about me, you care about my affairs, Ah Yue, if only you and I could stay like this forever." ”

There was a lot of lingering and reluctance in his tone, Lu Ziyue could hear it clearly, her body stiffened in an instant, but she was afraid that Shen Xie would feel it, so she tried her best to raise her head and look at him.

Shen Xie's face was as handsome as ever, and his peach blossom eyes were slightly bent downward at the moment, and there was no water in them, but they were filled with stars in the sky.

The bridge of the nose is high and straight, and the reddish lips are raised upward, revealing a row of smooth and neat teeth.

Lu Ziyue was slightly stunned, she didn't seem to have seen Shen Xie smile like this for a long time.

The smile on his face was very sincere, and there was no intention of acting at all.

He was genuinely happy that the relationship between the two of them had eased now.

But is it too late to be happy?

If it had been from the beginning, if those things hadn't happened from the beginning, she wouldn't have felt so uncomfortable at the moment.

The corners of her eyes couldn't help but glow with tears, Shen Xie and her eyes were naturally visible, he took out a brocade from his arms and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and his tone was as soft as ever: "Why are you crying, did I make you uncomfortable?" ”

"Nope." She shook her head, then pointed to her stomach, and the corners of her eyes curved, "Maybe it's a little uncomfortable to sit like this now that my belly is big, I've been doing this a lot lately, but it's still much better than when I started." ”

After she said this, Shen Xie found that there was a thick dark blue in the corners of her eyes, and her expression was much more lazy than before, and she did not look like she had rested well.

Shen Xie suddenly became a little angry, he sat next to Lu Ziyue and said, "How do those people under your command serve?" I don't even know that you're uncomfortable, and when you go back and forth to me, they all say that your body is fine, and if it's really okay, how can you sit and fall asleep uncomfortable. ”

All his anger was caused by Lu Ziyue, and she was afraid that these anger would affect others for a while, so she shook her head: "You don't have to blame others, everyone's condition is different when they are pregnant, maybe this child is extraordinarily active, or Jin Guicai has been tossing me." ”

After Lu Ziyue finished speaking, she realized that she hadn't said the most important sentence she wanted to say today, so she hurriedly tilted her head and looked at Shen Xie with a pair of eyes: "Actually, I came here today, not only to tell you about Lingshan, but also to talk about Apoi at the moment, which is about Ah Pei." ”

Lu Ziyue had been paying attention to Shen Xie's expression, and naturally saw the change in Shen Xie's face when she said the word Apei.

Although it was not obvious, there was a hint of impatience in those eyes.

A very slight change in expression is also fleeting.

Her heart was stagnant, but she still said with a smile: "I have already asked Xiao Qi, she said that you mean that everything will be done after the enthronement ceremony is over, this is nothing, I am not incomprehensible, but the current weather you also know, although it is not summer, but the sun is still very poisonous, if Ah Pei is put like this for a long time, I am afraid that no matter how much ice cubes are used." ”

Shen Xie's face changed again and again after listening to her words, and then the smile on his face disappeared.

He looked at Lu Ziyue and squinted his eyes: "Then according to your meaning, how should this matter be done?" ”

"If it is according to my intentions, I hope that you can send Ah Pei back to Da Yue as soon as possible, and I hope that when you are on the way, you will speed up your journey, and you will have all the things you need, and there must be no lack of anything."

After she finished speaking, she said: "If the prince feels troublesome, all the expenses on the road can be borne by the concubine herself, or if there are other things, the concubine can also arrange it by herself, as long as the prince sends someone." ”

Before Shen Xie heard what she said, his mood was not uncomfortable, but he was a little happy, he was still thinking about yesterday's lotus seed soup, thinking that since Lu Ziyue was here today, he had to get along with her no matter what.

But unexpectedly, while talking, he still talked about people and things that he hated.

Shen Xie's face was completely gloomy, and the words that Lu Ziyue said just now actually had a sense of wanting to make a clear relationship with him.

She can pay for all the money herself, when she said these words, did she ever consider that the person sitting next to her was her husband?

It's just that even though his face was gloomy, Shen Xie didn't show much obvious in the end, he pursed his lips and said, "You have decided, do you have to send her away before the enthronement ceremony?" ”

Shen Xie asked Lu Ziyue again, and he explained very patiently this time: "The reason why I chose to do so after the enthronement ceremony is that I hope that I can give your maid a beautiful title before leaving, so that she can return to her home country with dignity." ”

Shen Xie had already thought about Lu Ziyue, if he said that there must be something wrong with him, he just didn't tell Lu Ziyue about it earlier.

But these are inherently trivial and harmless, and there is no need to put them on the table.

Lu Ziyue also knew that Shen Xie had good intentions at this time, but Ah Pei was a native of Dayue Country anyway, and there was no need for her to bear the false name of Shen Guo.

There is no need to be like her, who has been written on the genealogy of Shen Guo all his life and put in cold shackles.

She quickly shook her head when she thought of this: "Ah Pei is a native of Dayue after all, and she only came here to accompany me and kiss, since everything is settled now, there is no need to let her continue to stay, although Shen Guo is good, it is not as good as her mother country." ”

There is another reason why Lu Ziyue said this, that is, there is a tradition in Dayue State, if the subjects of Dayue Kingdom have other countries' sub-fiefdoms, then there is no way to return to Dayue with their original identity.

So, no matter what, Ngapoi must come clean and leave cleanly.

Shen Xie is not from the Great Yue Kingdom, so naturally he doesn't know these traditions, he just feels that Lu Ziyue wants to slowly escape from his palm at this time, and even said that Lu Ziyue has begun to dislike the help from him.

This is a very bad start, Shen Xie didn't even dare to imagine, if this continued, would the relationship between him and Lu Ziyue, which had been so difficult to ease, break down in an instant?

The efforts made in these days will be completely meaningless.

Thinking of this, Shen Xie refused without hesitation: "In any case, Apoi understands the principle of following the customs of the country, since she chose to come with you at the beginning, it proves that she has abandoned her original identity, since she was not from the Great Yue Kingdom from the beginning, there is no problem in accepting Shen Guo's division now." ”
