Mu Rong had no expression on her face even like this, just like a wooden man, kowtowed and shouted: "The courtier is stupid, please make it clear!" The sound was still unwavering.

Jiang Wan felt bored, Lu Zhixing looked at this scene and asked, "What's wrong, Wanwan, what's going on?" "It's okay, I'll talk to Miss Mu Rong, you can get busy." Lu Zhixing nodded and left.

Mu Rong was still kneeling on the ground, her expression was calm, as if she had killed her at this time, and she also had this expression.

Jiang Wan rubbed his eyebrows and sighed, what was it that made a girl who had just arrived in Cardamom had no hope of life and was full of murderous energy, "Do you want to join the army?" ”

Hearing this, Mu Rong had feelings in her eyes, she looked at Jiang Wan in surprise, she didn't understand why she asked this, but she still answered honestly: "Yes." ”

Jiang Wan asked her to get up, retreated from the people around her, and asked, "Can you tell me the reason?" ”

Mu Rong played with her fingers and replied, "To protect the people in the city." ”

Jiang Wan sat next to her and poured herself a cup of tea and asked, "I heard that the city lord plans to let you inherit the family business?" ”

Mu Rong stopped talking, and this kind of disrespectful thing must not be known to others.

Jiang Wan smiled: "You don't have to be like this, I have been discussing with Your Majesty about women joining the army."

Mu Rong looked at her in surprise and asked, "The emperor agreed?" The voice involuntarily carried some eagerness.

Jiang Wan sighed, shook his head and said, "The emperor refused in order to protect the interests of the majority of the people. ”

Mu Rong nodded unexpectedly to show her understanding, if a woman can be in charge, her father will not have to steal a straw bag to let herself marry a straw bag, and Mu Yan will sacrifice her lifelong happiness. "Your Majesty has done the right thing, and this is indeed a wise move."

Jiang Wan sighed and said: "I went out with him and worked hard to deal with affairs, but I was only praised and said to be lucky." ”

Mu Rong lowered her head and said secretly: "This is a woman." ”

If it weren't for Jiang Wan's attention to her, this sentence would probably not be heard. Jiang Wan's hand drinking tea paused and said: "I am touted by the world as the reincarnation of the phoenix girl, and Lu Zhixing, whether it is out of personal feelings or hindering public opinion, will make me the queen." On the surface, I am only one foot away from the most noble woman in the world, but this is not what I want. ”

Mu Rong was stunned and said, "What does that lady want?" ”

Jiang Wan looked at her sideways and said, "One life and one couple." ”

Mu Rong lowered her head and said lightly: "Why does that lady stay in the palace?" ”

"What do you say? I'm waiting for my man to put me first in his place. Jiang Wan looked at the teacup with an inexplicable expression.

Mu Rong didn't understand why a person from a place like the palace had such a simple idea, and she didn't know what to say for a while, on the one hand, she admired her intelligence and bravery, and on the other hand, she felt disdain for being in a high position but only a man.

Jiang Wan looked at the girl in front of him and asked, "What about you?" Why did you join the army? ”

Mu Rong said: In order to protect the people in the city. ”

Jiang Wan smiled and said, "Isn't it really to vent the killing aura in your heart?" ”

Mu Rong was stunned, but did not answer.

Who knew that Jiang Wan smiled again and asked, "Isn't it to protect someone in the city?" ”

"Mother, women are too smart to arouse men's vigilance." Mu Rong replied without being salty.

Jiang Wan drank the tea and said, "It seems that I guessed correctly, right?" The other party did not deny it.

"Men who need the protection of women, you have to think about it, don't believe that love can trump everything at a young age, a woman, only if she really holds power in her own hands will she not be discarded by men." Jiang Wan thought of the first half of his life in this body, and couldn't help but admonish.

"Mother, do you love him?" Mu Rong asked.

Jiang Wan smiled bitterly and said, "Whether you love it or not, do you think I have a choice?" ”

"The courtiers heard that there seems to be a rare love agreement between the prince and the mother,"

"People of the royal family, is there a difference?"

"One day, the assassin infiltrated the palace, but unexpectedly no one was caught, isn't this the mother's choice?"

"I'm the daughter of the Jiang family, do you say it's luck or misfortune?"

"He loves you."

"I know."

The two fell into an awkward silence for a while, and Jiang Wan took up another topic: "If you really want to join the army, I have a way?" ”

Mu Rong glanced at her in surprise and asked, "What's the solution?"

Jiang Wan played with his nails and said: "It's very simple, marry you to the general, why don't you let him take you to the battlefield?" ”

Mu Rong refused without thinking about it, "I will never rely on men." ”

Jiang Wan shrugged helplessly and said, "It's up to you, anyway, I'm telling you the way." ”

Mu Rong thought carefully for a moment and said coldly: "Xie Niangniang is kind." ”

Jiang Wan looked at her and said, "The general is definitely much more reliable than the man you need to protect, you really don't think about it?" ”

Mu Rong also looked at Jiang Wan and asked, "His Royal Highness the Prince's wives and concubines are much less than those of the emperor, you really don't think about it?" ”

Jiang Wan patted her on the shoulder and said, "You are so interesting, if you change your mind, come to me at any time." ”

Mu Rong also smiled: "You won't have this opportunity." ”

Jiang Wan sighed and said, I thought the same way back then, and I didn't know the truth later.

Lu Zhixing saw Mu Rong go out and come in, hugged her and asked, "What are you talking to her?" Why are you driving me away? ”

Jiang Wan lay in his arms and said, "It's just some private matters of my daughter's family, I haven't talked to a woman like this for a long time." ”

Lu Zhixing felt a little distressed, tightened the hand that hugged her and said, "Wanwan, I'm sorry." ”

Jiang Wan waved his hand and said: "Where does this kind of thing come from, who is right and who is wrong, it's just a matter of involuntarily." ”

"Wanwan, don't worry, only you are my queen." Lu Zhixing said solemnly.

Jiang Wan shook his head slightly, took away his hand that imprisoned him, and said, "I never cared about those false names, don't you know what I want?" ”

Lu Zhixing looked at Jiang Wan's tearful eyes but lowered his head and stopped talking, he naturally knew what she wanted, but the existence of the harem was not to satisfy his own beastly desires, but to balance the forces of the previous dynasty, and a couple for a lifetime was a delusion for the emperor after all.

Jiang Wan's eyes flashed with disappointment, and then he said to him with a smile: "I'm joking with you, you are still serious." Let's talk to the castle lord after dinner and go play, shall we? She tugged at the sleeve of Lu Zhixing's coat and said, "I haven't taken a closer look when I came here, so you can promise me, okay?" ”

Lu Zhixing said helplessly: "You were just selected as a flower attendant, aren't you going out to wait to be watched by everyone?" ”

Jiang Wan pursed his lips and didn't give up, "Don't, don't, I just want to go out and play." ”

Lu Zhixing sighed and said, "You, why do you live more and more and go back." Every day is like a child. ”

Jiang Wan looked at him pitifully, with an expression of almost crying.

"Okay, okay, I'll take you out to play after we eat." Lu Zhixing reluctantly raised his hand and surrendered.

Jiang Wan made a gesture of victory and went to eat happily.

Although it is night, there are still many stalls selling goods on the street, because the blessing activity has not yet started, there are many pedestrians on the street, and the young girls are waiting to meet their favorite people in this festival, Jiang Wan is not interested in these, after looking at a few stalls, he decided to go to the lake with Lu Zhixing.

There was not a single wave on the surface of the lake, and several painting boats were floating on the water, the dim light was clearly visible in the night, and from a distance it seemed to mix with the starlight on the horizon, and it was placed in the water with the bright moon. The boat is made to look like a house, made of mahogany, tiled, high and low, and from a distance, it looks like it was built out of thin air in the water. The people around them watched intently, and the people in the painting boat talked loudly and laughed loudly.

Jiang Wan was interested, and said that he would give it a try, and arranged for the guards not to be public, so he only rented a small one.

Although this painting boat is small, it is very exquisitely arranged, mahogany tables and chairs, screen incense burners, if it weren't for the boat, Jiang Wan thought he had returned to the city lord's house. What is it pleasant to sit on the painting boat and enjoy the scenery, the cool breeze blows, and you can reach out to touch the lake, not to mention the window screens that swing in the wind around you.

Lu Zhixing saw her so happy and asked: "There is no shortage of this kind of thing in the palace, and it is more exquisite than this, and the surrounding scenery is also better, why are you the happiest here." ”

Jiang Wan played with the lake and said: "The fish raised by the concubines in the palace are all eager to return to the water. ”

"But I gave them fine food, so that they could stay away from harm, grow up carefree, and die of natural old age." Land Walkway.

"Is it really carefree? They used to live well with their families, but because the royal family liked it, they were forcibly kidnapped by the palace people, and they were placed in a strange environment, surrounded by people with ill intentions, how could they feel at ease? ”

"But the concubine loves it, and gives her special food to protect her from harm."

"yes, that's why she didn't leave for a while. But the fish around her were jealous of her, and tried every possible way to kill her, and then replaced her, the open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to defend, and the carefree little fish has slowly learned to use human means to maintain its position. ”

"It has been a truth since ancient times."

"The truth is determined by man."

There was an awkward silence between the two again, and Lu Zhixing held his forehead: "Wanwan, I brought you the flower cake from the inn, you can taste it." ”

Jiang Wan cheered and ran to him and shouted, "Where, where? I want to die of his family's flower cake, and when I go back, I must let the people in the imperial dining room learn to make this. ”

Hearing Jiang Wan say that he would go back, Lu Zhixing breathed a sigh of relief, as long as she was willing to stay by her side, then she owed herself a lifetime to pay it back, she only doted on her, and made her child the prince, as long as she wanted to satisfy her as much as possible, as long as she didn't leave herself.

Jiang Wan pushed him and asked, "Why didn't you bring fruit wine?" ”

Lu Zhixing played with her hair and said with a smile: "You have to pray for blessings tomorrow, I still know this bit of proportion." ”

Jiang Wan remembered the events of that day, smashed him silently eating flower cakes, drinking flower tea, and listening to the sound in the night for a while.
