The eldest princess turned her head to look at Lu Xuan, sensing her gaze, Shen Xixu, who was still looking aggrieved, suddenly looked nervous, and hurriedly blocked between her and Lu Xuan.

"Don't be angry, this time Ah Xu insisted on pestering Lord Lu, and it has nothing to do with her." Shen Xixu struggled to argue.

The eldest princess did not show a trace of anger or joy on her face, which could be said to be flat and abnormal.

After a moment of silence, the eldest princess walked to Lu Xuan's side: "Come in with the palace." ”

Lu Xuan looked panicked and worried, but the eldest princess said so, she didn't dare to disobey, so she could only obediently follow behind her.

Seeing this, Shen Xixu hurriedly followed, and comforted Lu Xuan as he walked: "Ah Xuan, don't be afraid, with me, she won't do anything to your mother." ”

Although Shen Xixu is a few years younger than Lu Xuan, he can't be the master of the eldest princess, but now that she is by his side, Lu Xuan is indeed a lot more relieved.

It's just that when she walked to the door, the eldest princess suddenly stopped: "Lu Xuan came in with the palace alone, and no one else was allowed to disturb." ”

After a pause, he specially added a sentence "including Ah Xu".

When Shen Xixu heard this, he instantly became anxious: "Why doesn't my mother allow me to follow?" Do you really want to blame Lord Lu for this? But I said I ......."

Before Shen Xixu finished speaking, the eldest princess had already looked at her with a serious face: "Your fault, the palace hasn't had time to punish you, go back to the room and think about the past, and then go over to teach you a lesson." ”

scolded Shen Xixu like this, and no matter how she resisted, the eldest princess immediately signaled the subordinates around her to forcibly take her back to her room, and then went straight to the room in front of her.

Lu Xuan didn't dare to ask more, so he had to follow him in.

The eldest princess sat down on the main hall when she entered the door, looking majestic, but more imposing than the mother of a country.

It's just that she didn't say a word for a long time, so she looked Lu Xuan up and down with an indescribable look, and she couldn't help but be flustered when she saw it.

Lu Xuan didn't dare to look up, the whole house, and even she could feel that there were only two people in the entire courtyard, herself and the eldest princess.

It is not a way to remain silent like this, so Lu Xuan hurriedly knelt down towards the eldest princess: "The lower official rashly took His Royal Highness the county lord to the eastern suburbs, and almost lost it, which is an unforgivable crime, and I ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to punish him." ”

Hearing what Lu Xuan said, the eldest princess snorted coldly: "This palace's own daughter knows in her heart whether you take her or she peesters you, this palace has its own decision, and it will not protect you." ”

Seeing that the eldest princess was so sensible, Lu Xuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but she soon tensed up again, after all, the eldest princess must have something important to come to her for no reason.

Remembering that the eldest princess did not blame herself for Shen Xixu's incident, and that she was able to escape King Chang's frame this time because of her help, Lu Xuan hurriedly spoke to her again: "Thank you for your help this time, Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, and the lower officials are grateful." ”

The eldest princess didn't appreciate it, and then waved her hand: "You don't have to thank the palace, if you want to thank the fierce king." ”

"Your Highness?" Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, but he thought that there was no one else besides Gu Huanli who could invite the eldest princess to come forward, so he couldn't help but feel a burst of warmth in his heart.

But before this warmth could stay in my heart for a moment, it was frightened by a sudden reprimand.

I saw that the eldest princess, who had always been as calm as water, suddenly stood up, and scolded Lu Xuan with an angry face - "Bold Lu Xuan, are you guilty? ”

Lu Xuan had already confessed all the guilt that should be confessed and should not be endured since he entered the door, but the eldest princess had no intention of blaming, why was she so angry and accusing now?

Lu Xuan's heart was shocked by the eldest princess's good and bad attitude, and for a while she really couldn't think of what she had done wrong, which made her more annoyed than losing Shen Xixu.

After thinking hard for a while, Lu Xuan cautiously responded to the other party: "The lower official doesn't know what is wrong, and I ask the eldest princess to make it clear." ”

Lu Xuan thought she had a clear conscience, but the eldest princess's next words made her like five thunders - "You disguised yourself as a man and mixed into the officialdom, and you dare to claim your innocence in front of the palace?" ”

When the eldest princess said this, Lu Xuan's pupils shook instantly, and a cold sweat broke out in her head, her whole mind went blank in an instant, and she didn't even have time to think about where the eldest princess learned about it.

After being stunned for a moment, Lu Xuan hurriedly admitted his mistake to the eldest princess: "Xiaguan did not mean to deceive, nor did he have malicious intentions, and I also ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to forgive Xiaguan's family, and Xiaguan is willing to bear all the consequences." ”

The eldest princess snorted coldly: "How do you bear the crime of bullying the king?" ”

Lu Xuan was speechless when asked for a while, and then the eldest princess spoke again: "Ah Xuke knows your identity?" ”

What does this mean is that it wasn't Shen Xixu who told the eldest princess Lu Xuan's daughter?

Lu Xuan didn't have time to think about it, so he just nodded truthfully.

The sneer on the eldest princess's face was even more creepy: "Okay, one is the most trusted younger brother of the palace, and the other is the only daughter of the palace, and they all deceived the palace in order to protect you, you are really very capable." ”

At this time, Lu Xuan understood that it was none other than Gu Huanli, who had been telling her to protect her identity carefully.

It's just that Lu Xuan can't understand why Gu Huanli exposed her identity at such a critical moment, isn't this even worse?

She finally escaped the trapping of King Chang, but now she has to face the sin of the Nine Clans brought about by her identity?

Lu Xuan was full of panic, but the eldest princess's tone became calm, and she waved her hand instead: "Get up." ”

Lu Xuan was stunned for a while, and he continued to kneel for a while, nor did he get up, but he only wondered if he had heard it wrong.

It wasn't until he saw the anger in the eldest princess's firm eyes gradually dissipate, and signaled to herself, that Lu Xuan slowly stood up, but she still lowered her eyes and didn't dare to look at the other party.

"The temper of the fierce king is not good, so let's serve it." In a silent room, the eldest princess suddenly asked such a question, which really made Lu Xuan a little confused.

After hesitating for a moment, she responded with a high-sounding "no".

The eldest princess looked disbelieving, and instead smiled at Lu Xuan: "The palace's own younger brother knows for himself, and it's not a day or two that he has a weird temper and annoyance, so you don't have to speak for him reluctantly." ”

Ordinary people don't understand Gu Huanli, so it's just enough to say this, but the eldest princess, as a person he trusts, thinks of him like this, and Lu Xuan suddenly felt a trace of injustice in his heart.

"His Royal Highness's temper is not strange, it's just that he is not good at words, most of the people outside have no real understanding of His Highness, so they will misunderstand him, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, as the person he cares about, must not misunderstand him like others."

When Lu Xuan said this, the eldest princess suddenly couldn't help laughing, and a smile on her noble face was no different from that of ordinary people: "You protect him." ”

"In this incident in the eastern suburbs, King Chang was originally aimed at the fierce king, but he dragged you to take the blame, can you blame him?" The princess asked.

Lu Xuan shook his head without hesitation: "Your Highness is not asking the lower officials to take the blame, but Your Majesty is suspicious, and it is inconvenient for His Royal Highness to come forward to appoint the lower officials, in fact, it is also out of trust in the lower officials." ”

"Haven't you ever worried about yourself for a moment?" The eldest princess asked Lu Xuan.

She still shook her head indifferently: "Just as His Highness trusts His Highness, His Highness also believes in His Highness, he is definitely not the kind of person who sacrifices others at will for his own selfish interests." This time, King Chang framed the lower officials, and it was also an unexpected thing for His Highness to come, otherwise he would not have come to ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to come to the rescue. ”

Lu Xuan said with a confident look, but the eldest princess couldn't help but be surprised: "How do you know that he came to intercede for you?" ”

Lu Xuan showed a helpless smile: "The lower official has just entered the officialdom and is soft-spoken, except for His Royal Highness, who would go to such great lengths for the lower officials?" ”

After talking about Gu Huanli for so long, Lu Xuan realized that something seemed to be missing, and hurriedly explained to the eldest princess with a vigilant face:

"His Royal Highness's help to conceal his identity is what His Highness wants, it is definitely not His Highness's intention to deceive the monarch or ulterior motives, if the eldest princess wants to blame, please be sure to keep His Highness out of the matter."

Seeing this, the eldest princess snorted coldly: "Interesting, you can't protect yourself, and you even plead for him in a dignified royal family, do you know his status in the royal family?" ”

Lu Xuan didn't think so-"Although His Royal Highness is a royal family, he has a heavy responsibility, and he is stared at by many pairs of eyes, if the matter of the subordinate official bullying the monarch is related to His Royal Highness, I am afraid that the people in the court who are eyeing him will frame him in every possible way on this ground, His Royal Highness is as kind to the subordinate as a mountain, and the subordinate is unwilling to implicate him." ”

Lu Xuan's explanation shows her understanding and concern for Gu Huanli, and the eldest princess can be regarded as having a preliminary understanding of her, a person who always lives in rumors, and her test can be regarded as popular.

Seeing that Lu Xuan was still unwilling to speak and intercede for Gu Huanli, the eldest princess put away Fang Cai's high-minded appearance, and then smiled at Lu Xuan with a kind face:

"Don't worry, this palace is not a nosy person, if this palace really wants to expose you, he can directly enter the palace to face the saint, why make a special appointment to meet you?"

Lu Xuan couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, is she willing to help the lower officials hide it?" ”

The eldest princess nodded, pretending to be helpless: "The two most trusted people in this palace are now on your side, what reason does this palace have to go against them?" ”

Lu Xuan was overjoyed, thinking that he would definitely die this time without a place to be buried, but he didn't expect that he had picked up a solid backer for nothing.

Thinking like this, Lu Xuan hurriedly knelt down towards the eldest princess: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, for your great kindness, if the lower officials are lucky, they will repay the spring." ”
