"I think this is your compliment to me."

Lu Shen responded with a smile.

Li Bingxue said that the big names in the court were more scheming than the other, and said that he was not weak at all, obviously just ridiculing, Lu Shen would definitely not misunderstand the meaning.

Seeing that his smile was relaxed, Li Bingxue snorted lightly: "You're welcome." ”

Because it was raining outside, the light inside the house was not bright, so the candles were lit all the time.

By the soft candlelight, Lu Shen looked at her white face, listened to her slightly coquettish tone, couldn't help but look away slightly, and coughed lightly: "Zuo Xiang's suspicion is not too much of a problem. Although Xue Xiang had invited me a long time ago, my visit to the Prime Minister's Mansion that day was indeed improvised, and the fact that the Assassin was able to make such a simple but effective ambush was obviously because he got the news in advance. ”

Li Bingxue was carried away from the previous topic by his words, and frowned slightly: "There shouldn't be many people in the Warp Weaving Division who know your whereabouts, Qin Tiju has been in charge of this place for more than ten years, so he won't be unable to find out, right?" ”

Lu pondered for a moment and said slowly: "I always feel that this matter is not so simple. ”

"Lu Shen, are you hungry?"

Li Bingxue looked at his contemplative appearance, and suddenly changed the topic.

At this moment, a slight noise came from Lu Shen's abdomen, and he suddenly felt the hunger rush to his brain.

"Uh...... Somewhat. ”

Lu Shen said with a little embarrassment.

"It's no wonder if you're not hungry, you can't eat these days, you can only feed some medicinal porridge. I've kept the kitchen ready for softened food, and you'll have them deliver it now. ”

Li Bingxue got up and walked outside.

Lu Shen looked at her back, and had a strange feeling in her heart, she didn't seem to want to continue thinking about those questions by herself.

After about half a burnt of incense, Li Bingxue returned to the room, carrying a food box in his hand.

Walking to the bed, she looked left and right, put the food box aside, and naturally reached out and said, "I'll help you sit up." ”

Lu Shen had only just investigated his condition, and it was indeed as the imperial doctor said that the injury was improving, and the tearing sensation of severe pain when he was slapped by the knife man had disappeared, but his body was relatively weak.

He thanked him and sat up slowly, and Li Bingxue intimately helped him put the pillow away.

In fact, by this time, Lu Shen already felt quite inappropriate, after all, his assassination injury had nothing to do with Li Bingxue, even if he didn't mention the identity of the other party, how could he work and she had been serving her.

Li Bingxue is a woman who has not left the cabinet after all, and if such an intimate act is known to outsiders, I am afraid that there will be an earthquake in the Jingzhou Governor's Mansion.

However, before he could speak to dissuade him, Li Bingxue seemed to have seen through his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, there is no one around me who likes to chew the root of the tongue, and outsiders will not know about these things." Besides, you are now an injured person who needs to be taken care of, can't I take care of you? ”

When she said this, Lu Shenden was speechless.

He could have asked Tan Zheng and the others to help, but this would undoubtedly embarrass Li Bingxue, and a group of strange men stayed in Li's house, and it might be even more unbearable to spread the news.

Li Bingxue didn't continue to explain, took out the food and chopsticks from the food box, and then calmly handed them over.

"Thank you."

Although Lu Shen felt that these two words were a little pale at the moment, he had no better way to express them.

Li Bingxue chuckled: "Eat quickly, don't think nonsense." ”

The lights and shadows were fluttering, and it was quiet, except for Lu Shen's gentle chewing sound.

When he first recovered from his injury, he couldn't eat too much, so he stopped eating after a while.

Li Bingxue got up and said, "You have to rest, and the imperial doctor will come to help you diagnose your pulse later to ensure that there will be no problems." I'm going to leave for a while, and the news of your awakening will have to be reported to the palace and the others, so that everyone will not be worried all the time. ”

"There's Miss Labor." Lu Shen said softly.

Hearing him bring the title again, Li Bingxue looked as usual, smiled and turned to leave.

She had only taken a few steps when she suddenly stopped and turned her head and said, "The most important thing for you right now is to recuperate from your injuries, and you can only continue to move forward if you return to the state you were in before the assassination as soon as possible." Your Majesty's adjustment of the court situation, the thoughts of the two prime ministers, the troubles within the Warp Weaving Division, and even the real culprit hidden behind the scenes, these things don't need you to worry about for the time being. I know you may not be able to listen to these words, but I want you to understand that one piece at a time is the way to forge ahead, and not to put pressure on yourself endlessly. ”

Looking at her earnest look, Lu Shen nodded solemnly.

In the next few days, Li Mansion continued to have guests coming to the door.

After learning that Lu Shen woke up, the angels in the palace arrived as soon as possible, bringing the Son of Heaven's condolences to Lu Shen, as well as a large number of rare medicinal materials and supplements. The next step was to send the children of the family to visit, and the two prime ministers, privy envoys, generals, and two generals all had a share, and each of them carried a valuable gift list.

Chen Lanyu and Huo Zhen and others greeted the guests on their behalf, except for the angels in the palace, everyone else was stopped by them, and only said that Lu Shen needed to recuperate according to the instructions of the imperial doctor, and everyone understood this, and no one insisted on seeing Lu Shen.

It's just that when these powerful children leave, most of them can't help but glance at the lintel of the mansion.

It is rumored that the pearl of the Jingzhou Metropolitan Governor's attitude towards this young Lu Duwei is worth savoring, and judging from the current situation, this matter is not out of nowhere.

In the back garden, there is a chill in the air.

"I haven't been to the capital many times, and it just so happens that every time it's either autumn or winter, I've never seen a landscape full of flowers. I once heard my father say that the scenery of this back garden is particularly beautiful in spring, but unfortunately I didn't have the opportunity to see it. ”

In the side hall, a pair of young men and women sat next to each other, and the woman looked at the bleak winter scene in the courtyard through the window, with a slightly trance-like expression on her face.

Lu Shen can now walk on the ground, but he can't be too tired, let alone use his internal strength, which is something that the imperial doctor has repeatedly advised.

Hearing Li Bingxue's point-in-point emotion, he looked at her line of sight and said softly: "When the world is peaceful, you can go south to the capital at any time to stay for a while." ”

Li Bingxue was silent for a moment, and she occasionally had some emotion, because the young man next to her knew her thoughts very well, and he didn't even need her to point it out, just a few words, he could gain insight into a deeper meaning.

Just like the first time they met outside Guangling City that day, the two did not have any communication on the surface, but they made a heart-to-heart cooperation on the battlefield.

"The world is peaceful...... This is a very distant thing, and even if I can see this day in my lifetime, Yongjia will definitely not be the capital at that time. If you want to maintain the overall situation of the world, Heluo City is the place that is really suitable for the capital. It's a pity that those people didn't know how to cherish it back then, and they buried the good situation in vain. ”

The corners of Li Bingxue's mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a faint mockery.

Lu Shen remembered the past that Lu Tong had said, and agreed with her last sentence.

Based on his experience in two lives, he naturally knows that although the Great Qi thirteen years ago had internal and external troubles, it had not yet reached the point of overturning, and the reason why the current situation of separation between the north and the south was entirely because of the mediocrity and incompetence of the first emperor of the Qi Dynasty.

When he was about to talk about this topic, Li Bingxue suddenly turned his head to look at him, and there was a little more determination in his clear eyes: "Lu Shen, I want to talk to you about something." ”

Lu Shen's heart tightened, he had a vague premonition, and said, "You say." ”

Li Bingxue said slowly but firmly: "I wasn't drunk that day. ”

Lu Shen said: "I know. ”

"I can't say that I was pretending to be drunk, my mind was a little chaotic at the time, but my consciousness was very clear. You should know that I'm not a person who likes to hide and tuck, and I will say whatever I think in my heart. Although some words are difficult to say, it is harmless to say them through alcohol, and you can probably dismiss them afterwards. ”

That's what I thought at that time, and if I didn't say it, I would feel very aggrieved, and I would be unhappy and uncomfortable to do things. My mother and brother have had a headache about my marriage for the past two years, but I really don't have a man I like. When I fought side by side with you outside Guangling City, I didn't think about this kind of thing, I only thought that you were a piece of jade, so I wanted to recruit you for my father, I believe that you can grow up to be a pillar of the army under the teaching of your father. ”

"It's just that I don't know when I started to have your shadow in my heart."

She spoke a little fast, but she spoke very smoothly, apparently thinking about it these days.

Different from the babbling after being drunk that day, this time Li Bingxue expressed it very clearly.

Lu Shen looked at her eyebrows and said softly, "I-"

Li Bingxue interrupted him for the first time and smiled, "Can you just listen to me today?" ”

Lu Shen understood her mind and nodded.

Li Bingxue continued: "I don't like to beat around the bush, I don't bother to pay attention to what others say, and I don't even care that you have Miss Lin in your heart, after all, you are just a senior sister and brother, and you haven't even held a marriage ceremony, why can't I fight for my life's events?" But I still can't do this, because I've seen the suffering of the common people, and I've seen my father work hard for the great cause of the Northern Expedition. ”

She smiled lightly, shook her head and said, "But in the past nineteen years, you are the first man to make my heart move, if I can't say my thoughts to my face, I may regret it in my life." ”

Lu Shen looked at her quietly, and after a while, he said slowly, "Thank you." ”

Li Bingxue said: "Please forgive me for being a little selfish, I let you stay in the mansion during this time, I just hope that when the horse leather shroud is in the future, I will have a good memory in my heart." ”

The picture of these days came to Lu Shen's mind, Li Bingxue took care of him meticulously, and never pretended to others.

They talked about everything, from the situation on the frontier to the situation in Beijing, and even the future of the Qi country.

Li Bingxue let out a long breath of relief and smiled: "I'm very happy these days. ”

Lu Shen bowed his head and said, "Me too." ”

Li Bingxue stood up, waited for Lu Shen to get up, stepped forward to give him a gentle hug, and whispered, "Thank you." ”
