Zhu Ran spat and spit out Lu Zilei's saliva all over his face. Lu Zilei was caught off guard, still fixing Zhuran's head with the thumb and index finger of his right hand, very hard, without a handkerchief, he rubbed his face with his left arm.

Lu Zilei is a person who practices martial arts, and he pinched Zhu Ran's jaw hard, the pain can be imagined, and Zhu Ran's painful tear ducts gushed out tears. Lu Zilei let go of his hand and pretended to say: "Crying? Pinching pain? ”

After a pause, he sarcastically said: "It's useless to cry in front of me!" Do you think I'm Zhu Heyu," Speaking of this, Lu Zilei suddenly thought of the rumors of Du Yuxuan and Zhu Ran, and continued to ask Zhu Ran with a dry laugh, "What is the relationship between you and Du Yuxuan?" Zhu Heyu's green hat, big enough! ”

At this time, the pain was already too strong, Zhu Ran ignored Lu Zilei's words, and said to him: "Lord Lu is a smart person, and the battle between the party and the henchmen is difficult to determine. Adults don't do too much, and in the end they will cut off their own back road. ”

Lu Zilei laughed heartily as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, and said after laughing: "Thank you for the reminder of the princess, but as the saying goes, the tree falls and the wall falls and everyone pushes it." Seeing that Zhu Heyu fell, I didn't push it easily, thanks to it! ”

There is a saying that the king calls the minister to die, and the minister has to die. Zuo Yawei acted on orders, and Zhu Ran knew that no matter how clever he was, it would be useless.

"Didn't you ask why I left you behind?" After a pause, he squeezed out a smile and said, "Because of my brother!" The more he cares about you, the more I annoy you. ”

Zhu Ran was expressionless, only sneered, and had no words, now Lu Zilei is a knife warrior, and she is a fish and meat, and she has reached the point of being slaughtered.

"Zhuyu is your eldest sister? It's a pity to be gentler than you," Lu Zilei snorted, "It's a pity that he's a fool!" ”

When Lu Zilei had vented enough, he gave the order: "In accordance with the decree of the Holy Lord, the female dependents of the Ruixin Royal Mansion will be pressed into the prison of Dali Temple, and they will be sent down." ”

"Yes!"

Before the words fell, I heard a person shouting from behind:

"Lord Lu, slow down!"

The middle-aged man who suddenly appeared behind him was someone sent by Du Yanzhuo.

"Lord Lu, this is a letter from the Prime Minister to you, see if you can be accommodating and temporarily press the princess to the prison of the Criminal Department."

Zhu Yun temporarily sent Lu Zilei to take charge of all matters in Dali Temple, Du Yan knew what role Lu Zilei was, and if Zhu Ran fell into his hands, it was undoubtedly a sheep falling into the tiger's mouth, and he would have to suffer some hardships. Moved to the prison of the Criminal Department, although the Criminal Department is not in charge of Du Yanzhuo, but the Criminal Department Shangshu Zhou Foil acts exquisitely, and Zhu Ran is locked up in the Criminal Department, and Du Yanzhuo is easy to send people to accommodate.

Lu Zilei took the letter, put it in his hand and turned it upside down, and finally didn't even look at it, and said directly: "Lu is only in accordance with the will of the saint." After thinking about it, when he was leaving, he approached someone and added, "No matter how big Prime Minister Du's face is, he can't use it twice, go back and tell the prime minister that the princess and the side princess can only choose one person!" ”

Zhu Ran listened to it in his ears, and his heart was moved. I couldn't help but wonder how Du Yanzhuo would react when he heard this. Who to choose? Choose yourself or Du Yuyan?

The answer is self-evident.

The prison in Dali Temple was cold and damp. Zhu Ran sat on the sparse weeds on the ground, and sighed in his heart that he was less than twenty years old, but he was imprisoned several times. Looking into the cell cell, four ragged old men in armor were sitting cross-legged against the wall. The people in this cell are all people related to Zhu Heyu, who fought bravely against the enemy on the battlefield for the Jiangshan Sheji and the people of Limin, and was born and died, regardless of his life. Outside the battlefield, above the court, there is a struggle between the party and the henchmen. cronies, wives and concubines are in prison, and mansions and mansions have been sealed one after another. Would he have known nothing about it on the battlefield? How would he feel when he found out? The love of father and son, the righteousness of brothers, is it really not as good as thousands of miles of rivers and mountains? Zhu Ran felt sad for Zhu Heyu at the moment. Zhu Heyu's face is infinitely presented in front of her eyes, is he still smooth on the battlefield? Is he okay? I am so worried about him at this moment!

"Put the concubine of King Ruixin away? Otherwise, this palace will not leave! Zhu Hexi's voice suddenly appeared in the cell.

"Princess, please don't embarrass your subordinates."

"Lu Zilei, I'll say it again at the end, release the people to the palace!"

"Sister-in-law, don't be angry, be careful of the fetal gas. I also acted on orders and let people go without permission, if the above blamed me, I wouldn't be able to eat and walk around! Lu Zilei softened his tone and whispered in Zhu Hexi's ear.

When Zhu Hexi heard this, the anger in his heart disappeared by three points, and he also replied quietly: "I also know that I am your sister-in-law, you let Zhuran go, I will hide her in the princess's mansion, and I will bear the responsibility if something happens." ”

"What are you doing writhing and pinching, and you're still not a man!" Zhu Hexi saw that Lu Zilei was still hesitant, and couldn't help but provoke him.

"Someone, open the prison door!" Lu Zilei was helpless in the end.

Zhu Ran listened to the conversation between the two, thinking that this Lu Zilei was so hypocritical and fickle, and his attitude towards Zhu Hexi at this time was really different from his attitude towards him earlier.

As soon as the cell door was opened, Zhu Hexi came in and hugged Zhu Ran, "The cell should not stay for a long time, I will take you to the princess's mansion." ”

Zhu Ran looked at Zhu Hexi, grateful, and was about to say thank you, but then she thought about it, how could she and Zhu Hexi's affection be a word of thanks.

On the carriage back to the princess's mansion, Zhu Hexi held Zhu Ran's hand, thinking of the fight between the third brother Zhu Heyu and the prince and her husband, her heart was depressed, she knew everything, what kind of person Lu Zihan was, what kind of person Lu Zilei was, but she forced herself not to think about it, she liked Lu Zihan, Lu Zihan was her husband, and the father of her children. But Zhu Heyu is the closest man besides her father and husband, how should she choose? asked Zhu Ran: "Zhu Ran, what should I do?" ”

Zhu Ran saw that Zhu Hexi's eyes were already shining with tears, and her face was ugly, so she knew that she was in a dilemma, stroked Zhu Hexi's belly, and said: "Now that you are pregnant, you are already half a mother, don't think about anything, give birth to the child with peace of mind, and the man's business will be done by the man." Zhu Ran can only be so comforted, if she is Zhu Hexi, she doesn't know how to choose.

Zhu Hexi nodded, but he couldn't get rid of the depression in his heart at all.

When he came to the princess's mansion, Zhu Hexi instructed the maid to bathe Zhuran, and after bathing and changing clothes, he prepared lunch.

Zhu Hexi sat next to Zhu Ran, intending to clip the vinegared salmon on the table.

Zhu Ran moved the dish to Zhu Hexi's bowl, hid the bitterness in his heart, and said with a smile: "Sour and spicy girl, it seems that you want to give birth to a son!" ”

Zhu Hexi touched his stomach lovingly, and also forced a smile, "He always keeps in my stomach, maybe it's a boy." ”

Zhu Ran took a sip of the tea in his mouth, and said: "You girl is more naughty than a boy, when the concubine was pregnant with you, she didn't stop!" ”

"I hate it, how naughty am I, I ......" Halfway through the words, Lu Zihan actually came in.

After entering the house, he first looked at Zhu Ran, and then he stared at him affectionately. Zhu Ran felt unnatural, picked up the tea on the table and took another sip.

Then Lu Zihan sat down next to Zhu Hexi.

When Zhu Hexi saw Lu Zihan, he seemed to have forgotten all his troubles and choices for the time being, his face was full of happiness, and he asked, "Why did you come back so early today?" ”

Lu Zihan's face was obviously displeased, but his attitude towards Zhu Hexi was still gentle, and he touched Zhu Hexi's stomach before saying, "Now that you are pregnant, how can you go to a place like prison?" What should I do if I have tire gas? ”

Zhu Hexi unfolded Lu Zihan's slightly frowning brow with his hand, and said coquettishly: "Xi'er will never go there again in the future, isn't it okay?" ”

Lu Zihan grabbed Zhu Hexi's hand, held it in his hand, and said half-spoiled and half-serious: "Zilei is the leader of the Yawei, is it appropriate for you to force him like that in prison?" ”

Zhu Hexi hurriedly shook his head, "It's inappropriate, it's not appropriate." The third sister-in-law is still here, so don't mention this matter again, can you sit down and dine with us? ”

Lu Zihan looked at Zhu Hexi and nodded and smiled, the tenderness in his eyes could melt the ice and snow in the cold winter.

During the banquet, looking at the affection between Zhu Hexi and Lu Zihan, Zhu Ran suddenly felt a burst of emptiness, and Zhu Heyu's figure appeared in front of him.

And in Lu Zihan's eyes, he mistakenly thought that Zhu Ran still had feelings for him, and he was ecstatic in his heart. He still loves her after all, and this love can't be forgotten, let alone parted.
