Chapter 352: The first test of the waterwheel

----

Lu Province

After Master Lu and Lu Yue finished dinner, the maids on the side packed up the dishes and chopsticks and retreated, and Lu'er carefully served tea.

Master Lu took a sip of the teacup, his eyes flashed at Lu Yue, and asked Lu Yue, "Is the old lady in the house okay?" ”

"Mmmm~" Lu Yue nodded, and the whole person sat on the chair as if there was no skeleton.

"Then you quarreled with Prince Qin?" Master Lu lowered his eyes and drank tea.

Hearing this, Lu Yue sat up straight all of a sudden, glared at her eyes and said, "How is it possible?" As soon as she looked at Master Lu's bright eyes, her momentum fell in an instant, and her eyes looked away uncomfortably.

Lu Yue waved her hand and said with a big grin: "Dad, how is it possible?" Don't think about it, I just miss you~"

She looked back and blinked a pair of eyes, grabbed his father's arm, and shook his father's arm coquettishly, "Dad~"

As soon as Master Lu saw Lu Yue's crooked appearance, he suddenly had a smile on his face, but he said with some disgust: "Okay, how old a person is, why is he still like a child~"

"No, I will always be my father's child~" Lu Yuetou leaned on his father's shoulder and said with a smile.

When Master Lu heard this, the corners of his mouth gradually rose, his eyes flashed with love, and he also reached out to hold Lu Yue's hand, and said with emotion: "Yue'er, Dad is old, as long as you live happily, Dad will be happy~"

Lu Yue's eyes suddenly turned red when she heard this, and she nodded softly.

Lu'er came in with a plate of dim sum, Lu Yue sat up suddenly, took the plate from Lu'er's hand with a smile, and reached out to take a piece for Master Lu, "Dad, you eat a piece of dim sum~"

Master Lu took it with a smile, opened his mouth and took a bite, and said, "Well, the dim sum made by this girl is getting better and better~"

Lu Yue and Lu'er couldn't help but chuckle~

The second day, the Royal Palace.

Ruihe Palace, the palace maid and the little father-in-law went in and out with a basin of water, a champa, and tea in their hands, and before they entered the tent, they heard the sound of pain here.

As soon as they saw this painful voice, everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to come out, and waited obediently outside.

In the account, Princess Helena frowned, her red mouth pouted, and the two personal maids who were waiting on the side were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, not daring to put on Princess Helena's shoes, and the two persuaded hard, "Princess, your feet are not good yet, otherwise, princess, don't go out~"

Helena glanced at the two of them, and said with some unhappiness on her face: "I'm almost bored to death in this bed, let you wear it, hurry up~"

When the two maidservants heard this, how dare they disobey the princess's order, they hesitated a few times, but still carefully picked up a shoe, and looked at the princess's still swollen ankles, and the hands of the two maidservants began to tremble.

"Hurry~" Princess Helena kept urging, she was going out for a walk, she was nesting in the house this day, she was about to cover up the problem~

The two maidservants took their shoes and put them on to Princess Helena, who frowned in pain, but this time she didn't scream.

Just as he was about to put it on, there was a sudden sound outside the hall, "The emperor has arrived~"

The maid goddess wearing shoes panicked, and her shoes fell to the ground.

The people waiting in the account suddenly looked panicked, Princess Helena raised her feet and kicked off her shoes, went to bed a few times and tore off the quilt cover, she glared at her, and immediately the people who were waiting stepped aside.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, the emperor and Lord Ali strode in, Helena was busy getting up and saluting, but the emperor strode forward with a smile, pressed Princess Helena's shoulder, and said, "You don't have to get up, take a good rest~"

After speaking, he looked at Helena's face again, smiled and turned his head to Lord Ali: "Today's face looks much better~"

Princess Helena smiled at the corner of her mouth, pressed her hand on her chest, bent over slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, I already feel much better~"

"Mmmm~" The emperor nodded with satisfaction, looked at Helena and said: "This time it was my Da Yuan's mistake that made Princess Helena frightened, I have already severely reprimanded Chang Heng and Mu Feng, I hope that the friendship between Da Yuan and Beiyuan will not be affected because of this matter." ”

"No, it's an accident~" Princess Helena waved her hand, not paying much attention. She was now thinking about how to tell the emperor about it, and as for other things, she hadn't paid attention to it yet.

Lord Ali's eyes darkened when he heard this, and he said secretly in his heart; The princess was really too simple, and she was coaxed around like this.

When the emperor heard this, he immediately smiled when he heard the words, and said, "In the past few days when the princess has been in Dayuan, is there anyone who agrees?" ”

Since the princess of the Beiyuan country no longer pursues the matter of the tiger attack on the hunting ground, naturally he also wants a little benefit from the Beiyuan country, and the emperor glanced at Lord Ali and stopped talking.

When Princess Helena heard this, her eyes immediately lit up, a touch of shyness flashed on her face, and she said, "If you go back to the emperor, there are... Yes~"

When Lord Ali saw the expression on Helena's face, he immediately secretly said in his heart that something bad was going to happen now.

When the emperor heard this, he immediately showed a smile on his face, and said, "Which general is it that I have won the favor of the princess?" ”

Ali quickly gave Princess Helena a look, but Princess Helena turned a blind eye to Ali's eyes, she lowered her eyes shyly, and said, "Back to the emperor, it is the prince of Qin of the Great Yuan Dynasty~"

"Qin... Lord Qin?? The emperor's eyes widened, and he looked at Helena with a surprised face.

"Yes~" Princess Helena lowered her eyes, not even looking at the look on the emperor's face.

The emperor looked stunned, the smile on his face receded, and he said lightly: "Is it Qin Mufeng?" ”

Princess Helena heard that the emperor's tone was wrong, she raised her eyes, and saw that the emperor had long lost her previous gentle attitude, her heart tightened suddenly, and immediately ignored the injury on her leg, supported herself and got out of bed, knelt on the ground and said: "Yes, the emperor, I know that the prince of Qin has a princess, but I can't help but fall in love with that person, and ask the emperor to fulfill me~"

When the emperor heard this, the expression on his face changed, in fact, this Princess Helena had the intention to let his emperor Changheng marry, hey, it's really a creation to make people~

He sighed lightly and remained silent for a long time.

Seeing that the emperor was silent, Princess Helena immediately became a little anxious, she glanced at Lord Ali and motioned to Lord Ali to help her talk about this matter.

Lord Ali sighed in his heart, so far, their princess has already taken a liking to the prince of Qin, and now she is still talking about this matter in front of the emperor, so this matter can only be done, otherwise where will they put the face of the princess in the northern kingdom?

Suddenly, Ali took off his robe and knelt down, looked up at the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, we are here this time to marry Da Yuanyong, and also to find a good horse for our princess, only in this way can we hand over the princess to Da Yuan with peace of mind~"

When the emperor saw that both of them knelt down, he immediately stepped forward and asked the two of them to get up, with a puzzled expression: "Princess, Lord Ali is serious, let me think about this matter~"

The emperor gave him a look, and Gonggong Cao immediately led someone to help Helena stand up and help her to the bed.

Seeing this, Lord Ali also stood up, and said in his heart: It's okay, let them think about it for a few days, anyway, in the end, the emperor still has to obediently agree to this matter~

The emperor looked at Helena and comforted: "Don't worry about this matter, you have a good rest first, and when you heal from your injuries, you will talk about this matter." After saying that, he left the palace with Gonggong Cao.

As soon as the emperor went out, Lord Ali couldn't help but step forward and whispered: "Princess, you are really in a hurry, if you want to talk about this matter, you should also say hello to me in advance~"

Helena saw that Lord Ali was a little angry, and immediately pursed her lips, pulled Ali's sleeve and shook it: "Uncle Ali, I was wrong, this is not the emperor's question, I am so happy, so just..."

Helena lowered her eyes as she spoke, her eyes were firm, and there was a hint of longing for beautiful love.

When Lord Ali saw the princess's appearance, where could he bear to talk about her, he suddenly waved his hand helplessly, and said, "Okay, don't run around these days, stay in the palace~"

"Uncle Ali, you are so good to me~" Princess Helena tugged at Ali's sleeve and coquettishly.

Ali-sama had no choice but to smile helplessly.

When the emperor returned to the imperial study, he made a big fire, leaving several courtiers speechless and trembling.

Gonggong Cao was terrified, as the saying goes, when the Son of Heaven is angry, millions of corpses will be ambushed. This is not without reason.

For a while, the people who served were told to be tightened and served with their hearts, and they must not have any problems in serving.

Suddenly, everyone was in danger, and the people who served the emperor worked harder.

"What's all this about? This kind of trivial thing is reported to the public, is it really that I have nothing to do all day long? The emperor opened the recital and looked at it, and smashed it on the table with a crackle.

Gonggong Cao's heart immediately tightened, these courtiers would mention it every day, and I didn't see the emperor make such a big fire in the past, but today he is so angry, I'm afraid that the emperor may understand that it may be because of what Princess Helena mentioned before.

The emperor didn't speak, and those of them who were slaves didn't dare to talk nonsense.

He touched the cold teapot, stretched out his hand to give the emperor a cup of tea, served it, and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, drink some tea~"

The emperor glanced at Gonggong Cao, and Gonggong Cao's heart was about to jump to his throat, but he saw that the emperor took the teacup lightly and took a sip.

It wasn't until the cup of tea was drunk that the emperor's anger finally came down.

He waved his hand and motioned for everyone to stand back.

Everyone left, the door closed, the emperor pinched his eyebrows and closed his eyes, this really threw him a big problem, this Princess Helena looked at her simple temperament, but she was very stubborn, and she seemed to have a deep love for Qin Mufeng, and she didn't even care about Qin Mufeng having a princess.

And although Qin Mufeng is cold on weekdays, he is not a ruthless and unrighteous person, and I am afraid that he will not give up his wife in order to marry a princess. And that Lu Yue has a bold, uninhibited, talented woman, he likes Lu Yue very much, how can he break up the two of them?

The emperor was in an incomparably entangled for a while, and just as he was thinking, there was a knock on the door, and the voice of Gonggong Cao came from outside, "Your Majesty, Craftsman Wang sent someone to send a message that the waterwheel has been built~"
