Chapter 39, Princess Yan Fat
Guiyan suddenly felt a little thirsty, and Lu Jingzhi had a little more color.
She sat back in place a little stunned, looked at Lu Jingzhi's eyes, and opened the topic, "Jing Si hasn't come back yet, doesn't it really matter?" ”
Lu Jingzhi shook his head slightly, "It's okay." ”
Guiyan nodded and stopped talking.
Lu Jingzhi's face was gentle, but the roots of his ears were a little red.
Guiyan didn't know what Jing Si was going to do, but since Lu Jingzhi knew it, she didn't need to say more.
They have been in love for many years, so naturally they don't need her to say much.
The carriage slowly entered the palace gate, and the vermilion palace wall obscured all the scenery in the imperial city.
Behind the palace gate, two little eunuchs walked towards the carriage with broken steps.
The carriage slowly stopped, Guiyan jumped out of the carriage first, lifted the curtain and reached out to help Lu Jingjing stop, Jing Yi stood silently aside.
The two little eunuchs curtsied to Lu Jingzhi, and one of them said in a white voice, "The slave is the little shunzi under Father-in-law Rongbao, Father-in-law Rongbao was originally going to come to greet you, but Your Majesty has something to do with him temporarily, Prime Minister Lao Cheng wait." ”
His body was slightly bent, his head was lowered, and his face was humble, but Guiyan couldn't help but clench his fists when he heard it, and his face was cold.
The corners of her mouth curled slightly, revealing a sneer, and her eyes were a little cold when she looked at Xiao Shunzi.
His words were inconspicuous, but the implications were all beating.
Lu Jingzhi is a foreign minister, and he is not allowed to enter the palace without being summoned, and when he enters the palace, he naturally has to have a eunuch to guide the way, in case something bad happens.
According to his status as prime minister, he should have been greeted by the great eunuch Rong Bao by the emperor's side, but now Rong Bao is accompanied by the emperor, which shows the dignity of Lu Jingzhi and the emperor, the emperor is respected, the prime minister is humble, and the majesty of the emperor cannot be challenged.
Lu Jingzhi could also directly follow Xiao Shunzi to the emperor's office to wait, but Xiao Shunzi asked him to wait here.
Waiting for the eunuchs beside the emperor, this is simply an insult to the prime minister of a country.
No one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere was a little tense.
Under Guiyan's indifferent eyes, Xiao Shunzi felt that the hairs on his body were up, a trace of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, and his back was cold.
The heart was beating a little fast, and Xiao Shunzi suppressed the body that was about to tremble.
The entourage next to Prime Minister Lu was too coercive, and he didn't look like an ordinary entourage at all.
Lu Jingzhi saw everything in his eyes and did not stop it.
His eyes were faint, but if you look closely, you will find that there is a faint pleasure in his eyes.
glanced at Guiyan slightly, and under the cover of the wide sleeves, his fingers gently swiped the back of Guiyan's hand.
Gui Yan's hand trembled, and he turned his head to see Lu Jing, but he had already withdrawn his hand and looked at Xiao Shunzi, his eyes were calm.
"In that case, I'll take a stroll around this palace." Lu Jingzhi's voice was faint, "Father-in-law Rongbao won't have an opinion, right?" ”
"Naturally not!" Xiao Shunzi hurriedly said, cold sweat dripping, this sentence is simply punishing the master's heart.
Where he went, how could Rong Bao dare to have an opinion.
Lu Jingzhi nodded and walked forward with Guiyan.
Xiao Shunzi didn't dare to move, and when he was about seven or eight steps away, he straightened up and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve.
His face turned pale, and before half an hour had arrived, he suddenly felt that he had passed through the ghost gate.
The little eunuch next to him also straightened up, looked at Lu Jingzhi from afar with a pair of dark eyes, and then smiled softly.
Lu Jingzhi walked on the avenue with Guiyan, covering his mouth and coughing a few times from time to time, and Guiyan frowned all the way.
Thinking of Lu Jingzhi's treatment, even if the carriage into the palace was stopped, he had to wait for the eunuch.
Now although it is said to be a casual walk, it is obviously walking inside.
In an imperial city, I don't know how long the palace road in and out is, not to mention that Lu Jingzhi is still very weak.
Seeing Lu Jingzhi gently pressing his fist against his mouth again, Guiyan couldn't help but speak: "Is your emperor of Yue Kingdom a mentally retarded?"
Lu Jingzhi looked in the direction of the Hidden Dragon Palace, the vermilion eaves and the rui beasts hovering above were faintly shining under the sun.
He looked at him long, "He is one of the few smart people in this world, but he is clever in the wrong place." ”
Guiyan sneered, "I didn't use my cleverness to expand my territory and improve people's livelihood, but I used it in the art of checks and balances in the court." ”
"People are smart, but their choices are wrong." Guiyan looked at Lu Jingzhi's line of sight, his eyes were cold.
At this time, there was a crisp bell at the turn.
Lu Jingzhi turned his gaze and saw a richly decorated carriage slowly driving towards this side.
The curtain is made of fine merman silk, which shines sparkling in the sun, and this kind of merman silk is extremely precious because of the rarity of the material and the very small output.
Ordinary families rejoiced in the fact that they had a veil made of this material, but the owner of the carriage used it to make a curtain.
There were two strings of bells hanging on both sides of the roof of the carriage, made of fine iron from the snow-capped mountains, and I don't know what bizarre mechanism materials were added to them, which could make a crisp sound like silver bells.
Lu Jingzhi squinted his eyes slightly, this kind of carriage is only one in the entire Yue Kingdom.
Its owner is the sister of the Son of Heaven, the current eldest princess of the Yue Kingdom - Yan Fat.
And the entire Yue Kingdom knows that Princess Yanzhi is a noble daughter of the heavenly family, and she has whatever she wants since she was a child, and she is very wanton.
The only thing she couldn't ask for was the prime minister.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of Lu Jingzhi, and the owner of the carriage lifted the curtain and leaned out half of his head, with a happy smile on his face.
She has a clear water hibiscus face, innocent and unstained.
"Brother Lu!" She snapped.
Lu Jingzhi was about to salute her, Yan Zhi saw his actions, quickly jumped out of the carriage and stopped him, and said a little coquettishly, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Between you and me, why do you get all this red tape." She frowned and was a little dissatisfied, "Brother Lu went to Lingcheng once, but he was separated from me." ”
Lu Jingzhi took a step back and silently widened the distance between him and her, "Lu is just a courtier, how can there be a relationship between him and the princess." ”
When he said this, he wanted to laugh and secretly lowered his head.
What about raw points?
What Lu Jingzhi means is that they haven't been cooked at all, okay?
"Please also be cautious, your Royal Highness's brother is only one!" Lu Jingzhi continued.
Her brother is the emperor on the dragon chair.
Looking at the battle in front of him, Guiyan also guessed the identity of the person in front of him, and he didn't dare to make more mistakes, after all, Lu Jingzhi was still hanging from the hands of the old brother in front of him for the time being.
Emperor Jiaxing is forty and eight this year, and his only sister is Yan Zhi. The first emperor came to have a daughter, and he was naturally extremely fond of Yan Zhi, and after Emperor Jiaxing ascended the throne, he also loved this youngest sister very much.
The age difference between the two is more than 20 years, and they basically raise Yan Zhi as a daughter, what Yan Zhi wants, what he gives.
Under such pampering, although Yan Zhi is pampered, in some major rights and wrongs, he has never disobeyed Emperor Jiaxing, except for one thing - Lu Jingzhi's matter.
"You!" Yan Zhi is not stupid, and naturally he also heard Lu Jingzhi's off-string sound.
The princess of a country, how can she be so faceless, let alone her sweetheart.
Tears were piling up in her eyes, but she was proud to not fall.
Lu Jingzhi lowered his eyes, stood still and did not explain.
After all, there is nothing to explain at all.
Guiyan quietly meowed at him, and for a while he wanted to laugh.
Suddenly, there was a sharp sound of breaking the air, and Gui Yan reflexively turned to the side, dodging the whip.
When she looked up in surprise, she saw Yan Zhi holding a horsewhip in her hand, and her eyes were full of anger.
Guiyan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes were a little cold after reacting.
Yan Zhi was even more angry when she looked at her, Lu Jingzhi was so face-saving to her, and the little people around her dared to despise her so much?!
She is a princess of a country, how can she be so humiliated?!
Seeing Guiyan's eyes, Yan Zhi became even more angry in his heart.
She clenched the whip in her hand, glanced at Lu Jingzhi hatefully, raised her hand and threw another whip towards Guiyan.
Lu Jingzhi's eyes were cold, and he suddenly reached out and grabbed the middle of the whip.
The end of the whip flicked, leaving a red mark on his white hand.
Guiyan's face changed.
"Are you alright? I didn't mean to, I just wanted to teach her a lesson. Yan Zhi was a little stunned, and was about to go to see the injury on his hand, but Lu Jingzhi took a step back again.
Yan Zhi's eyes were slightly dark.
Guiyan saw his hand, and then looked at Yan Zhi, who was flustered and guilty at this time, and his fingers clenched into fists.
I can't stand it anymore, what if I want to hit her?
Yan Zhi didn't care about her at all, and was completely stimulated by Lu Jingzhi's attitude.
She didn't know how to face it, so she hurriedly dropped a sentence, "I'll go and get you a doctor." ”
So he hurriedly got into the carriage and left.
Guiyan watched coldly as the carriage passed in front of them, and then took out a small white porcelain vase from his belt.
Lu Jingzhi's wound was already oozing blood, and the bright red color contrasted with his white hand, making the wound more and more terrifying.
It was the whip that Yan Yan had just snatched from the squire, and it was very rough.
But Lu Jingzhi's hand is the hand of a scholar, with slender and white fingers, and only a little bit of cocoons produced by writing and holding a pen.
Guiyan sprinkled the medicinal powder in the white porcelain bottle on the back of his hand, and the wound quickly stopped bleeding.
"I can have dodged, so why should I stop it?"
"I didn't think of it before, but I found out later, how could I allow her to do it to you." Lu Jingzhi watched Guiyan's movements and smiled slightly.
There was obviously a bit of pampering in that smile.
Guiyan's subordinates made a move, and then said, "Then you let her do it to you?" ”
Lu Jingzhi smiled lightly, but his eyes were a little deep, "If she doesn't hurt me, how can she leave with guilt?"
Guiyan looked at him in disbelief, then pursed his lips and continued to treat the wound.
He took out a clean handkerchief and wrapped his hand, his hand was very large, the joints were slender, and it was not easy to tie the knot, so he had to let him cover it with his other hand.
Emperor Yue is a smart man, but Lu Jingzhi is smarter than him.
