Zhao Heng said: "If this road is smooth, it will arrive one day early, shouldn't it be a good thing to arrive one day early? It will allow you to see Heyi sooner."

Lu Wanzhi stroked his lower abdomen and said, "If it is a day late, he can take Sister Jingshu down the mountain to the dock, and maybe he will follow Sister Jingshu back to the Great Prince's Mansion tonight with the same route."

Zhao Heng shook his head and said, "This is too despicable."

He Yi raised his eyes and looked at Zhao Jue and frowned, "Daddy, He Yi doesn't like you like this."

Meng Jingshu took Heyi's little hand and said to Zhao Jue, "Your Highness, Heyi has returned, you can go."

Zhao Jue looked at Lu Wanzhi's upright stomach and said, "How many months?"

Lu Wanzhi looked at Zhao Jue warily and said, "Five months."

Meng Jingshu was curious that Lu Wanzhi had just said that it had been seven months, how could it have become five months, and seeing that Lu Wanzhi was firmly holding Cheng'er's hand, Meng Jingshu understood that she should have been bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the well rope.

Zhao Heng lightly hugged Lu Wanzhi and said to Meng Jingshu, "Sister Jingshu, Xiao Heyi has sent it to you, and Wanzhi and I will go back to the palace first."

Zhao Jue's brows tightened more and more, "What do you call your imperial sister-in-law?"

"Sister Jingshu." Zhao Heng said, "She is no longer the imperial sister-in-law, she is Sister Jingshu."

Zhao Jue only felt a pain in his head.

Zhao Heng and Lu Wanzhi each took a child down the mountain, went down the mountain, and took a carriage for almost half an hour before returning to the Chu Palace.

As soon as Lu Wanzhi and Zhao Heng got off the carriage, they saw a good-looking young woman come out of it, dressed in sable fur, holding a soup woman in her hand, combing her spirit snake bun and shouting delicately, "Cousin, cousin-in-law, you are back."

Lu Wanzhi saw that the girl in front of her was familiar, but she couldn't remember who she was: "Who is this sister?"

Zhao Heng whispered, "She is the younger sister of Gu Qingchi and Gu Shiyu, Gu Xianqi."

Lu Wanzhi said slowly: "It turned out to be Sister Xianqi, has Sister Xianqi grown so big?"

This Gu Xianqi is not from Mrs. Gu Hou, she is the daughter of Gu Houye's concubine Aunt Hu.

Aunt Hu is sweet-mouthed and sensible, and Gu Xianqi is Gu Hou's daughter, but she doesn't have the temper of Hou's daughter.

Gu Xianqi looked at the two children behind Lu Wanzhi with a smile and said, "Yue'er has grown so big too? Sister-in-law, which one is Yue'er here?"

Yue'er saw the woman in front of her, looked at Lu Wanzhi and hided behind her, without the slightest liveliness and generosity in front of Meng Jingshu.

Zhao Heng hugged Yue'er and said, "This is, Yue'er, called Aunt Cousin."

"Auntie!" After Yue'er finished screaming, she shrank shyly into Zhao Heng's neck.

Zhao Heng said, "My family is more shy, but why are you in the palace?"

Gu Xianqi smiled lightly: "The king of Chu is not good at doing things, and there is no master in the palace who can serve, so my aunt asked me to come over and serve the king of Chu."

Lu Wanzhi saw the smiling girl in front of her, I don't know what the queen thinks, let her own niece take care of the prince, this doesn't make sense.

Gu Xianqi is an unmarried girl, and she is not a family with no one to come to her relatives to take care of her uncle.

There will be no shortage of maids and maids who will take care of you in the palace of the king of Chu.

No matter how big Zhao Heng is, he also sensed that something was wrong.

Gu Xianqi said: "Cousin and sister-in-law, please come in, it's cold outside, the prince has been waiting for a long time when he learned that you are coming back, so I will order the dining room to make your favorite lion head, cousin."

Lu Wanzhi looked at Gu Xianqi like this, but she was even more like the heroine in the Chu Palace.

The journey was tiring, and Lu Wanzhi didn't want to worry about a little girl who was only seventeen years old.

went to the hall of the palace with Zhao Heng and saw the king of Chu reading a book in the hall.

"See Daddy!"

"Daddy."

Lu Wanzhi had already taught the two children to salute, and when Cheng'er and Yue'er saw the King of Chu sitting high in the hall, the little man knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Ancestor."

When the king of Chu saw the two grandsons kneeling on the ground, he smiled happily and said, "Cheng'er, Yue'er, this is so big."

Zhao Heng said: "Both of them are almost two years old, so they are naturally older, and this Cheng'er can already memorize several ancient poems."

The king of Chu said, "Your son is much more promising than you."

"Of course my son is better than yours!" Zhao Heng said angrily.

Lu Wanzhi smiled when she saw Zhao Heng's appearance of hurting the enemy by one thousand and self-inflicting eight hundred, "That's true."

Only then did the king of Chu see the bulging belly under the big coat that Lu Wanzhi was wearing and said, "By the way, you are still pregnant, sit down quickly."

Zhao Heng said, "Don't sit, it's tiring to travel, let's go back to the room to rest first."

Lu Wanzhi and Zhao Heng returned to their courtyard, seeing that the courtyard was clean and spotless, and the two felt a burst of warmth after returning to the room, and the silver carbon had been burned early.

Lu Wanzhi asked the maid on the side, "When did you burn the charcoal fire?"

"Back to the princess, this is the charcoal fire that Miss Biao specially instructed us to burn two days in advance, and the house will be warm as soon as you and the prince come back."

Lu Wanzhi lay on the couch and said, "She is thoughtful."

Zhao Heng lay down next to Lu Wanzhi and said, "But she hasn't decided to marry yet, isn't it good for an unmarried girl to live in our house?"

Lu Wanzhi said, "Do you still know that it is not good for unmarried girls to live in your house? Why did you have to let me live in the palace at that time?"

Zhao Heng touched his nose and diverted the topic: "Aunt is also really, how can you let Xian Qi let an unmarried daughter of the Hou Mansion come to the palace? What's going on?"

Lu Wanzhi said slowly, "I remember that she is already seventeen, right? As the queen's niece, the marriage should have been decided early, do you know why she hasn't decided on the family? My grandmother also said before her death that grandchildren don't have to keep filial piety and delay family affairs, even if they keep filial piety, they can already be determined by family affairs after the filial piety period."

Zhao Heng hugged Lu Wanzhi's waist and said, "When we enter the palace tomorrow, I will beg my aunt to let Gu Xianqi go back."

Lu Wanzhi smiled lightly and said, "Hmm."

Lu Wanzhi got up and said to Wu Xiaoxiao, who came with her: "I came back to the palace, and I will leave this courtyard to you in the future, if you don't understand anything, just ask me."

Wu Xiaoxiao replied, "Yes."

"Cousin, sister-in-law, it will take some time for this dinner stove, you come back in a hurry, eat two bowls of dim sum to cushion your stomach."

Gu Xianqi came with a wooden basket and opened the lid on the top, and inside were two bowls of fragrant chicken noodle soup, and the fragrance came to the nostrils.

Lu Wanzhi was really hungry when she smelled the smell, she took the chicken noodle soup handed over by Gu Xianqi, tasted it, and said, "This tastes excellent, it really deserves to be the cook of the Chu Palace."

Gu Xianqi smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, this is what I made with my own hands, the prince also likes to eat this chicken noodle soup, this chicken soup is stewed every day when I get up in the middle of the year, using the old hens raised in the villa, and the soup stewed with the hens is the most fragrant."

"It's hard for you, blessed is whoever marries you in the future."

Lu Wanzhi can get up to read and learn calligraphy, but she can't get up to cook chicken soup when she is young, even if she boils it for Cheng'er and Yue'er herself, she can't do it.

Zhao Heng tasted the chicken noodle soup and sighed, "This is exactly the same taste as the chicken noodle soup I ate when I was a child."
