Chapter 24: The Seeds of Doubt

Huo Zhun's eyelids pressed slightly, and he glanced at the right servant of the household department with his residual vision, this old fox is used to figuring out people's hearts.

However, he really didn't want Lu Hongming to stay in Shangjing, thinking like this, he said to His Majesty on the throne, "The minister remembers that the article of Lu Yuanwailang's palace test is related to water control, and there are many practical strategies. ”

His Majesty pondered for a moment and set his eyes on Lu Hongming, "Lu Qing is willing to go to Yizhou on my behalf?" ”

Lu Hongming's face was pale, and he was crumbling out of the ranks, his voice was not loud, but he was clear and firm, "I am willing to go!" ”

It was also at this time that His Majesty noticed that something was wrong with him, and his brows furrowed, "Lu Qing is unwell?" ”

Lu Hongming didn't want to expose his family ugliness in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, so he only said, "The ministers will take care of themselves and never live up to Your Majesty's orders." ”

"That's it, I'm not the kind of dumb prince who doesn't care for his courtiers, since you are sick, then stay in Beijing to recuperate." When the words fell, he turned his gaze and swept to the right attendant of the household, "Zhang Qing is willing to go to Yizhou to share my worries?" ”

Zhang Wang's recommendation of Lu Hongming failed, and he taught this fire to burn on himself, his heart was bitter, but he didn't dare to refuse on his face, and there was a faint cry in his voice, "I am willing to share my worries for Your Majesty." ”

The Great Dynasty will disperse, Huo Zhun took the lead in turning away, and when he passed by Lu Hongming's side, his cold gaze swept over his face, and the purple python robe brought a gust of wind.

Lu Hongming's nose twitched, and he seemed to smell Ruolan again.

Is once a coincidence, twice or a coincidence? He walked quickly towards Huo Zhun and shouted, "King Wei, please slow down!" ”

At the gate of the Golden Palace, Huo Zhun stopped, turned sideways and looked suspiciously at Lu Hongming, who was hurriedly walking towards him, and raised his sword eyebrows lightly, "Lu Yuanwailang, is there something?" ”

Lu Hongming's gaze fell on Huo Zhun's purple python robe, sniffing the smell on it, and after a few breaths, he breathed a sigh of relief, this incense is indeed very similar to Ruolan's fragrance, but there is still a slight difference.

He bowed his hand to Huo Zhun and said, "There are some files on the Xiaguan Mansion for water control, I want you to transfer them to Zhang Shilang." ”

Huo Zhun intuitively felt that Lu Hongming was lying, he squinted his eyes, went through all the reactions he had just had in his mind, and finally landed his gaze on his cuffs.

Yesterday, the palace people of Fengxiang Si sent a new batch of incense to the Wei Palace, and one of the incense smells very similar to the smell on Pei Ruolan's body, so he asked Du Lin to replace the previous incense, presumably Lu Hongming came to this smell just now.

"You and Zhang Shilang work together in the household department, and the dossier is given to him by himself, so you don't have to go through this king." Huo Zhun said coldly and turned to leave.

The dossier was an excuse, Lu Hongming clenched his fist to his lips and coughed, and walked out slowly.

Back at the Wei Palace, Huo Zhun thought of Lu Hongming's reaction in front of the palace, and always felt that things were not so simple, he instructed Du Lin, "Go and find out, what kind of incense did Miss Pei use before?" ”

"Also, what tokens did Lu Hongming send to her!"

Durin was ordered to leave.

Huo Zhun sat in the study for a while before getting up and going to the main room.

Pei Ruolan raised her head when she heard the footsteps, she actually rarely saw Huo Zhun wearing court clothes, purple robes and jade belts, and complicated crests entrenched in the hem of the clothes, extravagance is extravagant, but it is also imposing, making people dare not pant loudly.

"Don't like this king wearing court clothes?" Huo Zhun stood still in front of her and asked condescendingly.

Pei Ruolan shook her head with a very shallow smile, and then asked, "What kind of incense does the prince smoke?" ”

"Qinglan."

Pei Ruolan lost her eyes for a moment, Huo Zhun caught it, bent down and sniffed at her neck, "You always have an orchid fragrance on your body, what kind of incense did you use before?" ”

Pei Ruolan ducked back and lowered her eyelids, "It's just the common incense in spice shops." ”

"Really?"

Pei Ruolan nodded stubbornly.

Huo Zhun didn't ask any more questions, he sat down beside her, hugged the person into his arms, pecked her nose like Ning Xinli, and gently kneaded her sensitive waist with his hand.

At first, Pei Ruolan was full of awe of the python robe on Huo Zhun's body, but in the end, the python robe was wrinkled by her, where was there any awe, and she felt embarrassed to look at it more.

In the evening, after Huo Zhun finished handling his business, Du Lin came in from outside and bowed his hand, "The humble position has been investigated, the incense used by Miss Pei is called Youlan, and it is a ...... specially prepared for her by Lu Yuanwailang."
