"Isn't Lord Lu still here?" Shen Xixu looked around.

Gu Huanli replied casually: "She went back." ”

"Go back? Stopped handling the case? Shen Xixu's words showed a burst of eagerness.

Gu Huanli replied casually again: "This king gave her an official job, and she went back to the house to prepare." ”

Speaking of this, Gu Huanli seemed to feel that something was wrong, why did Shen Xixu enter the door and have been inquiring about Lu Xuan until now?

Thinking of this, Gu Huanli immediately looked at Shen Xixu with a suspicious face: "Are you here to find this king, or are you here to find her?" ”

Shen Xixu shrugged his shoulders in confusion: "Is there a difference?" You are inseparable all day long, what is the difference between looking for you and her? ”

If these words were said from the mouths of others, Gu Huanli would probably finish him off with a slap in the eye.

But it was Shen Xixu who spoke, a young and simple girl, Gu Huanli was a little embarrassed in an instant, and then retorted: "When will this king be with her...... Inseparable? ”

Gu Huanli said while looking arrogant, avoiding Shen Xixu's gaze.

Shen Xixu didn't think so, and still insisted on explaining: "Isn't it? But I've met Lord Lu twice in total, both with Uncle Huang. ”

It seems that it makes sense to say this, not only the two times that Shen Xixu saw, but also in normal times, Gu Huanli did stay with Lu Xuan from time to time.

In this way, it is no wonder that others always criticize the relationship between the two.

Shen Xixu was still staring at Gu Huanli with a puzzled expression, seeing that he was becoming more and more uncomfortable, and then changed the topic: "The official business handed over to Lu Xuan this time will not interfere, what about you?" Do you drink tea with this king in the palace? ”

Hearing this, Shen Xixu suddenly looked disgusted.

Although Gu Huanli is not a few years older than her, perhaps because of his seniority and because of his idle style on weekdays, Shen Xixu can't help but regard him as an old man who enjoys his old age.

Shen Xixu immediately shook his head: "I don't want to accompany you to do such a boring thing, whoever has a case will follow me." ”

"Nonsense, Lu Xuan's move is very important, you don't want to make trouble for her." Gu Huanli reprimanded softly when he heard this.

Shen Xixu disagreed: "I am the county lord of Pingchuan, it's almost the same to help her turn evil into good fortune, where will it cause chaos?" Uncle Huang, you don't underestimate people. ”

"What can you help her......" Gu Huanli smiled contemptuously, but he seemed to think of something in his heart-

Shen Xixugui is the only daughter of the eldest princess, and she has nothing to do with the court fight, if she follows Lu Xuan in this quinine matter, even if it is discovered by the people in Xichang, because of her face, they may not do anything to Lu Xuan.

It's just that it's really dangerous to go here, and if you take a Lu Xuan, Gu Huanli is already worried enough, is it really necessary to put her little niece who is not deeply involved in the world into it?

After thinking about it, Gu Huanli had a plan for both worlds, and then spoke: "You can go to Lu Xuan, but you have to let Qin Wei follow you every step of the way." ”

Previously, because of the rumors of herself and Lu Xuan, Gu Huanli was inconvenient to send her own people to protect her even if she was worried.

But now with Shen Xixu as an excuse, he can send people to look at Lu Xuan openly.

If he is targeted by others in the future, it can be said that Qin Wei is here to protect the county lord of Pingchuan, and no one in the court will dare to criticize him.

In this way, whether it is Shen Xixu or Lu Xuan, Gu Huanli can rest assured.

Shen Xixu didn't think as much about Gu Huanli, and when she saw him agree, she immediately jumped up for joy: "Thank you, Uncle Huang!" ”

Gu Huanli shook his head helplessly, and then summoned Qin Xiao and ordered him to escort the county lord of Pingchuan to Lu Mansion and protect the two of them every step before the case was over.

At that time, Lu Xuan was discussing with Rong Liao how to proceed with the theft of quinine.

According to the meaning of Rong Li, a large number of quinine were lost at the same time, and if they wanted to be undetected during transportation, they must have to go by water and mix with other things on the cargo ship.

"The smell of quinine is strong, if you want to not be discovered, you must cover it with other smells, but my cousin can go and check the few workshops in Shengjing City that transport spices all year round, maybe he will get something." Lie so you go.

Lu Xuan couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Cousin, you have done me a great favor." ”

But as soon as Lu Xuan's words fell, his face was sad again: "But it has been a few months since this matter, even if we find a spice shop related to quinine, I'm afraid that things have already been transferred." ”

This is what Lu Xuan is most worried about - there is no proof of death.

Rong Liyan was also in a dilemma, and thought for a long time before he spoke: "Why don't you go to the Imperial Medicine Pavilion where quinine is stored and take a look?" Maybe there's a clue. ”

Receiving this suggestion, Lu Xuan shook his head even more: "Why don't I want to?" It's just that His Royal Highness ordered that this matter must be visited secretly, and I am afraid that I will be shocked if I enter the palace rashly, and with my current status, I am afraid that I will not be able to enter the Imperial Medicine Pavilion. ”

"Who said you can't get in?" Lu Xuan was hanging his head in frustration, and suddenly a confident voice came from behind him.

Lu Xuan turned around when he heard the voice, it was Shen Xixu?

She was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Xiaguan see His Royal Highness the County Lord." ”

Looking at Lu Xuan's appearance of being unfamiliar again after not seeing him for a long time, Shen Xixu couldn't get angry.

"It's said that we are friends, don't be a county lord and a subordinate official." Shen Xixu said as he helped Lu Xuan up.

Rong Lily was surprised: "This is ......"

Lu Xuan remembered this and hurriedly introduced: "Cousin, this is the daughter of the eldest princess and the county lord of Pingchuan." County Lord, this is my cousin who lied. ”

Hearing that the other party had such a noble identity, Rong Li immediately pushed the wheelchair forward: "I don't know the true face of the county lord below, I am offended, and I also ask the county lord Haihan." ”

Shen Xixu is not a person who pays attention to red tape at all, so she immediately waved her hand at Rong Li: "Hey, Lord Lu's cousin is also my friend, so there is no need to be polite." ”

"By the way, the county lord ......" Seeing that Lu Xuan was about to start again, Shen Xixu immediately glared at her.

Only then did she retract the honorific title, and instead asked in an equal tone: "How could Ah Xu come here and have Qin guards by his side." ”

Lu Xuan saw Qin Xiao following Shen Xixu early in the morning, and couldn't help but associate their trip with Gu Huanli.

Only then did Shen Xixu speak: "My mother agreed that I would handle the case with you, and the Qin guards were sent by the emperor's uncle to protect me." ”

"I see." Lu Xuan nodded, although Qin Wei came for Shen Xixu, after all, he could be regarded as having a cronie of Gu Huanli by his side, and Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel a little more peaceful in his heart.

"I just heard you say that you want to go to the Imperial Medicine Pavilion, but it has something to do with the case that my imperial uncle asked you to investigate?" Shen Xixu asked suddenly.

Lu Xuan did not shy away from it, and then nodded.

Shen Xixu's face instantly brightened, and then he patted his chest and said to Lu Xuan: "This is not simple? I'll take you there. ”

Yes, although it is inconvenient for Gu Huanli to come forward, as the daughter of the eldest princess of Shen Xixu Hall, it must not be difficult to go to the Imperial Medicine Pavilion.

Lu Xuan's face suddenly flushed with joy when he heard this: "Then there is Lao County...... Ah Xu. ”

Being thanked by Lu Xuan like this, Shen Xixu didn't mention how proud he was in his heart: Uncle Huang also said that I would drag Lu Xuan back, and my role was clearly very great.

Time was pressing, and since he had Shen Xixu's help, Lu Xuan did not delay any longer, and immediately went back to the room to change into Qin Xiao's clothes.

After a while, seeing Lu Xuan dressed as a guard, Shen Xixu couldn't cry or laugh: "Lu Xuan, why are you dressed like this?" ”

On the other hand, Qin Wei has always been dressed in dark clothes, but today it is rare to see him wearing white, and it looks a little tight, it must be Lu Xuan's clothes.

"What's going on with the two of you today, swapping identities?" Shen Xixu looked left and right, the contrast between the two was really funny.

Lu Xuan was informal, and only walked in front of Shen Xixu seriously: "Your Highness has instructed you to keep a low profile on this trip, so I can only pretend to be the county lord's attendant and enter and leave the Imperial Medicine Pavilion with the county lord." ”

Shen Xixu accepted Lu Xuan's reason for dressing up like this, and then nodded: "Okay, okay, since that's the case, let's go." ”

The two of them immediately set off to enter the palace, and their legs were inconvenient, even if they were anxious, they could only stay in the house and continue to think of ways for Lu Xuan.

After a long time, Lu Xuan followed Shen Xixu into the palace as an attendant.

Qin Wei has followed Gu Huanli for many years, and it is inevitable that he will be attracted to the palace with him, so he can only follow him all the way to the gate of the palace, and then wait elsewhere.

Shen Xixu took Lu Xuan into the palace as the county lord of Pingchuan, and the road was unimpeded.

Lu Xuan is also very familiar with the roads in the palace, all of them have been walked one by one in her previous life, and this long-lost feeling makes her both nostalgic and terrified.

It wasn't until they reached the door of the Imperial Medicine Pavilion that the guards suddenly stopped Shen Xixu, and the two of them were shocked in their hearts.

Fortunately, Shen Xixu has been used to being domineering since he was a child, and when he saw this situation, he immediately put on the posture of the county lord.

"Why, even the driving of the main palace dares to stop, are you tired of it?" Shen Xixu scolded the two palace people guarding the door.

The two of them were suddenly terrified: "The slave doesn't dare to stop His Royal Highness the county lord, it is really the commander of the West Factory who has ordered that the Imperial Medicine Pavilion shall not enter and exit without permission in the near future." ”

"The commander of the West Factory? You mean Wang Yong, that old man? When will it be up to him to decide when the palace will be decided? Shen Xixu raised his eyebrows angrily.

The first few times Lu Xuan saw her as a lively and lovely little girl, but today when she saw her launch a prestige, she really had a bit of her imperial uncle's momentum.

Seeing that Shen Xixu asked so trickily, the palace people didn't dare to say anything more, so they had to take a step back: "Since the county lord insists on going in, please." ”

Hearing this, Shen Xixu immediately turned to look at Lu Xuan: "Let's go." ”

But as soon as she entered with her front foot, Lu Xuan's back foot was stopped: "The county lord can go in, you ......"

Without waiting for the palace people to finish speaking, Shen Xixu was immediately annoyed: "This palace brought her to get the medicine, and you didn't let her in, is it possible to wait for a while and ask this palace to take it personally?" ”

"This ......" The palace people hesitated, but they still stopped Lu Xuan, and the two sides couldn't help but fall into a stalemate.
