Chapter 237: Half a Child
Hearing Luo Mingrang's greetings, the eldest princess was taken aback, and was silent for a moment before speaking: "Beizhen Fusi...... You're the only son of the Locke family? ”
Luo Mingrang nodded, but was a little surprised: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess recognizes the official?" ”
The eldest princess smiled slightly, and her face was kind: "In the early years of this palace, thanks to your father's rescue, I heard Ah Xu mention you before, but I didn't expect to meet so soon." ”
"It's a father's honor to be able to do things for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." Luo Mingrang was courteous and courteous.
Shen Xixu stood aside and watched, unable to believe his eyes.
Luo Mingrang looked like no one in his eyes on weekdays, and he didn't even have a good face in front of Gu Huanli, why did he become obedient when he saw the eldest princess today?
On the other hand, the eldest princess made Shen Xixu unbelievable, this gentle face was still her high-minded and empty-eyed mother?
Shen Xixu couldn't help muttering: "I've never seen someone so gentle to me on weekdays." ”
When these words reached the ears of the eldest princess, her face instantly changed back to her original seriousness, and then she glared at Shen Xixu: "What did you say?" ”
Thinking of her bold and reckless actions today, the eldest princess had not yet had time to be punished, and was questioned by her again at this time, and Shen Xixu's desire to survive was instantly ignited.
In a hurry, she actually asked Luo Mingrang to be her shield-
I saw that Shen Xixu didn't think about it, so he stretched out his hand and pointed at Luo Mingrang: "I'm talking about him!" ”
Luo Ming, who was suddenly clicked, was taken aback? couldn't help but follow Shen Xixu and pointed at himself, with a look of disbelief, why didn't he remember when he offended this little ancestor again?
Immediately afterwards, Shen Xixu explained: "I mean he is respectful to his mother, why don't you see me like this on weekdays, he is so cruel and has no grace." ”
Luo Mingrang really didn't expect Shen Xixu to sue himself at such a time, and it was a trumped-up crime, and sure enough, the woman's words were not credible, and any reconciliation was used to deceive the ghost.
But who called the eldest princess Shen Xixu's mother? At this time, it was useless to argue, Luo Mingrang had no choice but to accept his fate, and waited in a deep voice for the eldest princess to scold him.
didn't expect Shen Xixu to lift a stone to hit her own feet, hearing her words, the eldest princess not only protected her, but spoke to Luo Mingrang.
"You are so stubborn, Lord Luo is willing to help you regardless of your previous suspicions, this time you should thank others for it, and repay the kindness and revenge, is this how this palace teaches you on weekdays?" The eldest princess asked Shen Xixu.
Shen Xixu almost doubted whose mother was standing in front of him.
Speaking of Shen Xixu, the eldest princess looked at Luo Mingrang with a gentle face: "Today, Lord Luo is the one who broke the siege for Ah Xu." ”
Luo Mingrang shook his head: "It's just a gesture, thinking that Lu Lingshi and His Royal Highness the county lord are not people with ulterior motives, so they don't have to be framed by others." ”
This surprised Lu Xuan, she thought that Luo Mingrang looked upright on weekdays, and he should only admit death and evidence like Chen Weizhi, but she didn't think that he had a bit of humanity.
The eldest princess had a very good impression of Luo Mingrang, but at this moment, seeing that he not only helped Shen Xixu, but was also so humble and indisputable, she was even happier when she saw it.
"It just so happens that Your Majesty rewarded some imperial food and wine yesterday, why don't you stay and dine together today, and you should be grateful to Lord Luo for taking care of Ah Xu these times." The eldest princess suddenly mentioned.
Shen Xixu was caught off guard: "What? Does his mother want to leave him to eat with him? ”
Seeing Shen Xixu's resistance, the eldest princess's face instantly became gloomy: "What do you mean?" Shouldn't you keep someone to eat in return for helping you? ”
Luo Mingrang stood aside and was flattered, and Lu Xuan was even more embarrassed, in fact, in the final analysis, whether it was Luo Mingrang or Shen Xixu who helped her today, even if she wanted to repay this favor, she should repay it.
But the eldest princess had already spoken, and Lu Xuan was not good at directly grabbing guests from others, and after thinking about it for a while, she still chose to be silent.
After a long time, Luo Ming let Fang speak: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, for your kindness, but the lower official came to investigate the case on the orders of His Majesty, lest he cause trouble to His Royal Highness the county lord again, and it is still inconvenient to stay in the mansion for a long time." ”
In fact, Luo Mingrang just found a tactful reason to refuse the eldest princess's request, but in her eyes, this became a manifestation of his understanding.
In such a comparison, Shen Xixu was just stubborn like a little girl, and the eldest princess immediately glanced at her.
When her eyes left Shen Xixu, she passed Lu Xuan, and the eldest princess came back to her senses, and the "initiator" of all this is still standing here today.
After pondering for a while, the eldest princess immediately questioned Lu Xuan: "How could Lord Lu appear at the state memorial ceremony today?" Don't you know that Your Majesty has a rule that officials below the second rank are not allowed to enter the City God Temple without permission today? ”
Lu Xuan had been worried just now, and at this moment, the eldest princess finally talked about her, and she didn't even have time to think about it before she leaned down towards the other party.
"The lower official is guilty and has implicated His Royal Highness the county lord, and I also ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to punish him." Lu Xuan's attitude of admitting his mistake was extremely sincere.
Before the eldest princess could say anything, Shen Xixu hurriedly stopped in front of Lu Xuan and explained to her: "Mother, Ah Xuan did this because the imperial uncle arranged it, what do you blame her for?" ”
"Your imperial uncle?" The eldest princess was surprised.
Shen Xixu didn't think much about it, and casually responded to the eldest princess: "Yes, the imperial uncle wants to deal with King Chang, so he ordered Ah Xuan to go and deploy secretly." ”
Hearing this, the eldest princess couldn't help but raise her throat and eyes, swallowed her saliva before reminding Shen Xixu with a panicked face: "What nonsense? Lord Luo is still here. ”
Shen Xixu knew the eldest princess's concerns, and then waved his hand at her disapprerovingly: "Mother don't worry, he has a good relationship with the imperial uncle, and the two of them are like brothers." ”
Hearing this, although the eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief, she faintly felt that something was wrong.
After thinking for a moment, the eldest princess came back to her senses, and then reprimanded Shen Xixu: "Nonsense, Lord Luo is clearly the same generation as you, how can you be commensurate with your imperial uncle and brother?" ”
Shen Xixu almost didn't react to this, on weekdays, Luo Mingrang's style is exactly the same as Gu Huanli's, if it weren't for the seniority here, who would treat him as a young man?
was sorted out by the eldest princess like this, Luo Mingrang was a little blindsided, he and Gu Huanli got acquainted in the early years, and they have always been brothers, and now according to the eldest princess's words, is it possible that he will call Uncle Uncle next time he sees Gu Huanli?
Luo Ming was puzzled, but in front of the eldest princess, he didn't bother to talk about these useless things, so he just let her go.
Speaking of Gu Huanli, the eldest princess came back to her senses, and turned to Shen Xixu and asked: "You said that today's incident was planned by your imperial uncle, so the ......family that he deliberately mentioned was killed by King Chang."
The eldest princess of the Lu family's branch had heard about it before, and when she asked about it at this time, Shen Xixu hurriedly nodded: "That's right, it's Uncle Xuan's family." ”
Hearing this, the eldest princess hesitated, as if she was thinking about something, and from time to time she looked at Lu Xuan with an indescribable expression.
Seeing this, Shen Xixu couldn't help but sweat for Lu Xuan, today's hasty escape was caused by her, and Gu Huanli took out this evil breath for her in front of hundreds of civil and military officials and relatives of the emperor, it was difficult to guarantee that the eldest princess would not misunderstand her.
Shen Xixu didn't have time to wait for the eldest princess to speak, so he immediately thought of a way to get out for Lu Xuan-
"Ah Xuan, since someone suspects you, it's better for you to go back home earlier, if someone finds out that you are here, I'm afraid it will be difficult to tell."
When Shen Xixu said this, Lu Xuan immediately reacted that she was helping herself, and hurriedly nodded, and then looked at the eldest princess: "There is a lot of disturbance today, if Her Royal Highness the eldest princess has no other instructions, the lower officials will retire first." ”
The eldest princess didn't want to make trouble for herself, and when she saw Lu Xuan speak, there was nothing to stop, so she nodded immediately.
Lu Xuan was about to leave, but he heard Luo Mingrang beside him suddenly speak: "Your Highness, the lower official is going back to restore his life, so he retreated with Lu Lingshi." ”
"Hey, Lord Luo is not ......" Seeing this, the eldest princess was about to say something to save her, but was blocked by Shen Xixu Emperor Jidi.
"That! Thanks to Lord Luo today, the great kindness is beyond repayment, next time, next time we meet, I will definitely thank Lord Luo. Shen Xixu said as he glanced at Luo Ming.
Luo Mingrang immediately understood what Shen Xixu meant, and then nodded along with her words: "Then I will visit His Royal Highness the County Lord another day." ”
Having said that, but it was just a momentary word to deal with the eldest princess, and Luo Mingrang didn't dare to expect Shen Xixu's thanks.
After a few polite words with Shen Xixu, Luo Mingrang immediately followed Lu Xuan away, and even the eldest princess couldn't interject another sentence.
After sending the two away, the eldest princess looked at Shen Xixu with disdain: "Lord Luo is kind enough to help you, you girl, what is your attitude towards others." ”
Shen Xixu was still unconvinced: "What is my attitude towards him, should my mother reflect on what her attitude is towards him, right?" Look at the gentle tone you spoke to him, and I didn't know that he was your son. ”
"Hongu would like to have such a son." The eldest princess muttered in front of Shen Xixu from the bottom of her heart.
After being silent for a moment, the eldest princess suddenly asked Shen Xixu tentatively: "But it is rumored that the Fusi of Xichang Beizhen acted fairly, why did Luo Mingrang help you?" Also, in front of the Imperial Guards, how did he help you? ”
It's okay not to ask, but as soon as she asked, the picture that made Shen Xixu almost faint today poured into her mind again, and after thinking about it carefully, her cheeks suddenly turned red.
Seeing Shen Xixu's wrong reaction, the eldest princess couldn't help but be surprised: "You girl, I'm asking you, what are you blushing?" ”
