The sound of the piano and the drizzle make people more and more unable to see the way forward. The unicorn beast under the eaves spits out the rainwater collected by the sink on the house, falls into the mouth of the bronze turtle at the four corners of the eaves, and then flows into the lotus pond of the prince's mansion through the secret passage below.

Lu Huisu stroked the piano with her hand, but it was not in tune, she listened to the sound of rain outside, but there was only the sound of rain.

As a result, the sound of the piano became more and more diffuse, and it seemed as disorganized as the sound of rain outside.

The uneasiness was probably transmitted to the other living creatures in the house. A black panther got up from the room, opened its grape-sized eyes, and twisted towards Lu Hui.

It had dissolved the beastliness of the leopard in the wild, and was as docile as a wild cat in front of Lu Hui, crouching beside her crossed legs, and the black panther rubbed the corner of the autumn shirt she was wearing on her lap.

This leopard was brought back when Shan Shu went out hunting a few years ago, and a few years ago it was a small leopard less than half a leg long, very wild and fierce. It took Shan Shulin nearly half a month of effort to tame it and leave it by Lu Hui's side.

In front of Lu Hui, it was a docile 'black cat', and in front of those assassins, it was a sharp blade that disemboweled. I don't know how many assassins died under the claws of this leopard, and I don't know how many times it saved Lu Hui's life.

Raising his hand to gently knead the top of the panther's head, Lu Hui put down the piano in his hand: "Wu Tong, when did you say he would come back today?" ”

When he asked this, Lu Hui himself was a little stunned.

Although it was common for her to ask this before, now, when there is still a huge gully between her and Shan, it is always a bit inappropriate to ask such a question.

"He's back now." Someone outside laughed in response.

Shan Shulin pushed open the door, put away the oil-paper umbrella sideways, so that all the water on the umbrella was shaken outside, and then entered the house and stood the umbrella next to the door.

He didn't know where he went, and his coat was half wet, and it looked black and inky.

There was no attendant behind him, he came alone.

Lu Hui hurriedly stood up and opened his mouth to ask him something, but he still didn't speak, and slowly sat down and pressed his hand on the strings.

"Don't you ask me where I went?" Shan Shulin smiled, put the smock on the screen, knelt opposite Lu Hui, removed the piano, took out the oiled paper bag from his sleeve, and put it on the table.

Smelling the aroma of meat in the oil paper bag, Lu Hui's face was slightly better: "Where do you go, what does it have to do with me." ”

Shan Shulin smiled, opened the paper bag, and said, "I knew you would prevaricate like this." I came from the Spring Garden to see the queen coming. ”

Lu Hui's hand when he lifted the bamboo chopsticks froze slightly, and his face loosened a little: "What?" Is her grounding lifted? ”

Shan Shulin himself also took a pair of bamboo chopsticks: "The emperor's holy decree, when will it be useful to the queen?" As long as she disobeys the emperor's orders without knowing it, the emperor will turn a blind eye. ”

After all, Jiang Guo's military power is still in the hands of the Mei family, and the emperor can't be too harsh on the empress.

"What did she say to you?" Lu Hui asked again, but his eyes couldn't take off the red-skinned and white-fleshed fruit duck in the paper bag on the table. In fact, it's not that I'm gluttonous, but I really don't dare to look at Shan Shulin's face.

Shan Shulin looked at her blatantly: "Zuo just wants to re-align with me and promise not to attack you." ”

Lu Hui snorted coldly. Don't do it to yourself? The frequency with which she ordered people to spread medicinal powder around her body was getting higher and higher.

The black panther was attracted by the smell of meat, his head pierced out from under Lu Hui's wrist, stared at the roast duck on the desk, and licked his tongue. Looking at Shan Shulin, it didn't dare to make a mistake.

"Go to the side." Lu Hui took two large chopsticks and duck meat, threw them aside, and ordered the black panther to go aside.

It curled its tongue, still unfinished, but it could only move away under the threat of Shan Shulin's gaze, and lay down cross-legged.

"A bloodless leopard looks like a slightly larger wild cat." Lu Hui smiled, twisted a piece of chopsticks and put the meat in his mouth, and squinted his eyes with satisfaction.

There was something else in her words, and Shan Shulin could understand it.

"So you can only tempt it with cooked meat." Shan Shulin replied with a smile.

With a little brain, you can know that the queen and Lu Hui cannot coexist. What she was referring to was 'not to start' was only a matter of time. After a long time, she can't help it.

"The weather is better, I want to go out for a walk." Lu Hui said, "I always sit in the prince's mansion, and I feel a little uncomfortable. ”

Although it was only a few days since the emperor ordered her to stay in the prince's mansion.

"Okay." Shan Shulin responded, "But now that you're staring at the outside, you'd better not get out of the sedan chair." ”

Lu Hui nodded in response, turned his eyes to look at the black panther next to him who was bending his knees and pretending to sleep, and bent out a faint smile.

It doesn't matter if she can't get out of the sedan chair, the important thing is that she has to go out and choose a suitable person who will make her pleasing to the eye. Otherwise, how could she give the queen a big gift?

Chewing the duck meat in his mouth, Lu Hui's unstable heart finally stabilized a little.

"Okay!"

Someone pushed the door in, strode to the table, and rushed to the table: "I'll just say, you two actually eat alone behind my back." ”

Ying Zhiwen frowned, but the joy in his eyes couldn't be stopped. He pretended to wipe his hands on his clothes, and with two fingers, he picked up a piece of duck meat and threw it into his mouth.

The skin is crispy and the meat is tender, and the liquid is fragrant. He said in a loud voice: "Brother Ziqi is still what I want, I know that only the roasted duck in Xijing is the most suitable for my appetite, I took it away, you're welcome!" ”

As he spoke, he was about to pick up the corner of the paper bag and leave with it.

"Wu Tong." Lu Hui didn't stop him, but just opened his mouth lightly and called up the black panther with shiny fur lying on the ground.

Unhurried, the panther stood up and stood in the doorway with a graceful gait, as if he was not allowed to ask questions. It opened its mouth, mistaking its fangs.

Ying Zhi looked at its sharp teeth, and its legs were slightly soft. Thinking about it, he still put down the paper bag and said happily: "A joke, it's just a joke, why are you so serious?" ”

The panther lazily crouched, pressed its tail to the ground, and stopped moving.

"You didn't go out to see a doctor today?" Lu Hui didn't want to talk to him about the past.

Ying Zhiwen does not often stay in the house, usually he prescribes a day's medicine to Lu Hui, and tells the maid to go out of the house to seek medical treatment after when it is ready to be sent to Lu Hui. It's rare to see people who haven't gone out like today.

"Nope." Ying Zhiwen stuffed meat into his mouth like a whirlwind and clouds, and answered, "It has been raining lightly for the past few days, and the road on the ground is very muddy, so I don't want to go out, so I only mix some prescriptions in the house." ”

As a doctor, I should ask about the common problem of doctors: love cleanliness and can't see a single stain. It would be worse to let him step on the mud than to put a knife on his neck.

Lu Hui smiled and nodded, looked at Shan Shulin, and saw that the latter didn't mean to speak, so he couldn't help but remind: "Then you shouldn't know that the Ying family has been busy preparing for the funeral recently?" ”

"Have a ...... with me" Ying Zhiwen raised his eyes, his mouth slurred, "Ying Jia?" Whose? ”

Lu Hui smiled: "Heavenly doctor, the funeral that should be asked." ”
