After thinking for a moment, Lu Xuan was about to make an excuse to refuse, but before she could speak, someone sat down without seeing her.

Cui Shi immediately ordered the rice cake to add a pair of chopsticks to Gu Huanli, and waited for him to open his mouth before sitting down again.

At that time, the excitement at the dinner table had long been gone, and everyone was restrained.

Gu Huanli was calm and composed, and from time to time he praised Cui's craftsmanship.

After a long time, Xu is aware of the abnormal expressions of everyone, and Gu Huanli stopped his movements: "What are Lord Lu's plans for in the future, and where do you want to serve?" ”

Lu Xuan shook his head: "Your Majesty ordered me to wait at home for the order, and it just so happens that I also want to accompany A-Niang for a few more days." ”

Gu Huanli nodded: "That's fine." ”

There is no difference between dignity and humility between the two conversations, and it is really not a taste to see that Rong Lilies in his heart.

The same is true of Cui's family, who pondered for a long time before he spoke: "I heard that His Royal Highness has helped Ah Xuan many times in Jiangnan, and the people are grateful. ”

Gu Huanli raised his lips and smiled: "Madame's words are serious, Lu Xuan is a capable talent under this king, and this king should do his best to support him." ”

You're welcome? Lu Nanjun didn't think that other men other than him should treat Lu Xuan with deep affection.

After enduring it for a long time, he still spoke: "The dishes are cold, if Your Highness eats well, please leave, Sister Ah has just come back, and our family will not have time to enjoy the joy of family." ”

Sure enough, what was she afraid of, Lu Xuan was frightened for a long time because he was afraid that Lu Nanjun would speak disrespectfully, but he still didn't disappoint her.

Seeing this, Cui's face instantly reprimanded Lu Nanjun with a solemn face: "Nanjun, Hugh is rude, hurry up and make amends to His Highness!" ”

Lu Nanjun was arrogant, how could there be a reason to take back what he said, and he instantly pinned his head to the side.

Gu Huanli smiled secretly, and then looked at Cui's family: "Thank you Madame for your hospitality, this king is indeed a lot of trouble today." ”

Cui Shi hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no, it's the people's women who are negligent, if Your Highness doesn't dislike it, you can come to the house to play at any time in the future." ”

As soon as Cui's words came out, Lu Xuan couldn't wait to drag her back, Cui's didn't know Gu Huanli, she knew, these words were undoubtedly in his arms.

But what you say is like water spilled out, even if Lu Xuan doesn't want to admit it, she can't withdraw it.

Sure enough, seeing that Cui's mouth was opened, Gu Huanli accepted it without thinking about it: "Madame, this king will come to visit often." ”

After speaking, Gu Huanli got up, and when she left, she deliberately turned around and showed a "flirtatious" smile to Lu Xuan, which made her feel uncomfortable.

The scene fell into Rong Li's eyes, and the worries that had been accumulated in his heart for a long time suddenly came up, and then he pushed the wheelchair and moved to Lu Xuan: "Ah Xuan, I want to talk to you." ”

Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and only reacted after a moment, and then pushed Rong Li to the study.

"What's the matter, cousin?" Lu Xuan opened her mouth to ask, and Rong Li specially talked to her alone, thinking that there was something to avoid Cui and Lu Nanjun.

In fact, this is not the case, I saw Rong Lie hesitate for a long time before he spoke: "It's not important, I just want to hear you talk about your experience in Jiangnan." ”

Lu Xuan was stunned when he heard this, and then he explained: "You also know that my leg can't go anywhere, it's rare for you to go out, and I also want to hear about things outside." ”

When he said this, Rong Li's eyes were full of sadness, and Lu Xuan was reluctant to refuse at all.

After brewing for a while, Lu Xuan simply sat down and talked to him about what he had seen and heard in the past few months.

When he hears a lie, his eyes are full of joy, and sometimes he is sweating.

He didn't pause until he heard something abnormal: "You mean you also have a confidant?" ”

Lu Xuan nodded: "Her name is Qingpei, although she was born in the dust, she is knowledgeable, talented and beautiful, and she has been taking care of her everywhere these days." ”

Hearing this, Rong Li's heart suddenly gave birth to some kind of intuition, and then asked tentatively: "This Qingpei girl, isn't it ...... you?"

Lu Xuan hurriedly shook her head and denied: "Everything was just a misunderstanding before, she is now married to a wife, and I am just confidants and friends." ”

Even so, Lu Xuan also admitted that Qing Pei had indeed been interested in him, and he couldn't help but panic.

At that time, Lu Nanjun also heard this outside the door, and immediately rushed in.

was about to say something, but he remembered that Rong Li was here, so he had to pretend that something was wrong: "Brother, A-Niang invited you to come over, saying that there is something important to discuss with you." ”

Lu Xuan believed that it was true, and seeing that it was Cui's order, she got up without saying a word: "Cousin, then I'll leave first." ”

Rong Liao nodded, and did not get involved in the private affairs of their "mother and son", so he had to remain silent in place and struggle to fight against the various contradictions in his heart.

Lu Nanjun and Lu Xuan went out together, and after walking a little farther away, he found a room and pulled her in.

Lu Xuan was stunned: "Nanjun, what are you doing, didn't you say that A-Niang has something to do with me?" ”

Lu Nanjun shook his head at this time: "Sister, I have something to say to you." ”

"Stinky boy, I've really grown up, I've learned to lie, why do you have to avoid my cousin?" Lu Xuan looked at his younger brother with doting eyes.

Only then did Lu Nanjun speak: "I just heard Sister Ah say, ......"

"Say what? How to spit it out. Lu Xuan didn't understand Lu Nanjun's abnormal performance.

He also hesitated for a long time before he said it: "Nanjun heard that a woman has a love for Sister A, right?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Xuan was stunned at first, and then his cheeks turned red.

In her eyes, Lu Nanjun has always been a teenager who has never grown up, and it is really unexpected to say these love things from his mouth.

Seeing Lu Xuan's reaction, Lu Nanjun knew that he had heard something wrong, and he suddenly became anxious.

"Sister, do you know your identity, in case you are discovered......" Lu Nanjun's eyes were full of worry.

Lu Xuan looked light-hearted: "Don't worry, she doesn't know my identity, I have always used the excuse of official business, and I have never been close to her." ”

In this way, Lu Nanjun put his mind at ease and no longer cared about this matter.

However, compared to being favored by women, what he is most worried about is that there are men who have ill intentions towards his sister.

Thinking of this, the first thing that came to Lu Nanjun's mind was the one who had just made their family uncomfortable.

Lu Nanjun then said: "Sister, Nanjun wants you to stay away from the fierce king. ”

Hearing such words from Lu Nanjun's mouth again, Lu Xuan was stunned: "You are a little child, how can you worry about adult affairs one day." ”

"Oh, sister, I'm not a child anymore, I just don't want Sister to be in danger." Lu Nanjun retorted.

Lu Xuan was even more puzzled: "What is the danger of His Royal Highness the Fierce King, don't listen to the nonsense of those people outside, in fact, His Royal Highness treats people very generously, and I can save the day these times, isn't it all because of him." ”

Lu Nanjun was not worried about the relationship between the two, but now when he heard Lu Xuan's kind words to Gu Huanli, his heart was even more uncomfortable.

"Sister, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that he has bad intentions for you!" Lu Nanjun said a little anxiously.

Lu Xuan didn't care: "He is a dignified His Royal Highness the Fierce King, he wants the wind to be windy and rainy, what is there to predict about me as a petty official." ”

"But he ......" Lu Nanjun wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lu Xuan in an instant.

"Okay, Nanjun, you don't have to worry about Sister A's affairs, but you, who have repeatedly spoken out in front of His Highness, do you want to implicate A-Niang?" Lu Xuan questioned Lu Nanjun in turn.

At this time, he realized that what he had just done was inappropriate, but as soon as he saw Gu Huanli's flirtatious look towards his sister, he couldn't control the anger in his heart.

It's just that now he was reprimanded by Lu Xuan again, and Lu Nanjun had no choice but to be obedient and promised not to be so impulsive in the future.

On the other side, Gu Huanli left the Lu Mansion and went straight to the palace, and as soon as he saw Emperor Liang Qin, he bluntly said that he wanted to accept Lu Xuan.

Emperor Liang Qin was stunned when he heard this, he cared about the royal face, and didn't want Gu Huanli to get too close to Lu Xuan.

But in front of Gu Huanli, it was not good to speak bluntly about the "bad morals" between him and Lu Xuan, and he could only deal with him tactfully for a while.

"I know that the emperor's brother loves talents, but the emperor's brother has many talents, so why insist on Lu Xuan alone?" Emperor Liang Qindi persuaded him with good words and wanted to talk to him in detail with more and better talents.

But Gu Huanli didn't appreciate it, and was still stubborn: "The younger brother has no intention of others, but he wants to promote Lu Xuan to the Criminal Department." ”

"The Criminal Department?" Emperor Liang Qin refused when he heard this: "Lu Xuan has just entered the officialdom, and his qualifications are still shallow, so it is not suitable to enter the Criminal Department." ”

Gu Huanli raised his lips and smiled: "The younger brother naturally understands, so the younger brother came here this time just to ask the imperial brother to allow Lu Xuan to do things in the younger brother's mansion, and then consider joining the criminal department when his political achievements are accumulated enough in the future." ”

Emperor Liang Qin wanted to refuse, but Gu Huanli said the word "request", if he refuted his face and annoyed him, I am afraid that the royal face will be even more lost.

Thinking of this, Emperor Liang Qin reluctantly agreed: "Since you insist, I have nothing to say, but there is a sentence I must remind you that there is a difference between respect and inferiority, and I hope that the fierce king will take care of the royal face and pay attention to proportions in all affairs." ”

Emperor Liang Qin didn't dare to speak directly, but Gu Huanli didn't have to think about it to understand that the proportions he meant in his words were just the proportions between him and Lu Xuan.

After Lu Xuan entered the palace, he couldn't help but say much, and Gu Huanli simply responded first.

Emperor Liang Qin planned to send the decree to the household department, but Lu Xuan still knew nothing about this matter.

It wasn't until the household department sent someone to the Lu family to summon the news that Lu Xuan cooperated with the family to come out and be ordered.

"Your Majesty's edict that Lu Xuan has made meritorious contributions to the management of Yuanshan County, and I am very relieved, and I am specially promoted to the deputy envoy of the trial." The envoy of the household department read according to the script.

Lu Xuan hurriedly got up to take the edict, but Cui Shi was confused when he heard it, and couldn't help but ask more: "Dare to ask your lordship, who is the deputy envoy ......of this trial?"

The envoy then smiled and said: "The deputy envoy of the trial is under the jurisdiction of the palace, and as for Lord Lu, what he is going to this time is the mansion of His Royal Highness the Fierce King." ”

"The Fierce King?" Hearing this, the two men exclaimed in unison.

The envoy was stunned: "Yes, it is the luck of Lord Lu that His Royal Highness intends to promote, congratulations to Lord Lu." ”
