Chu Yuan replied calmly: "Well, thank you." ”

Chu Zhang's face changed several times, and he almost scolded.

Lu Ronghuai climbed the stairs.

Everyone looked at him together, especially the many ladies present, King Li was eager to declare the preference and doting of Princess Li to the world, which made the ladies blush with envy.

Emperor Hongjia came back to his senses from surprise and couldn't help but say, "Third child, what the hell are you doing?" ”

"It's nothing, Erchen is popular, they can't help but want to praise Erchen."

Emperor Hongjia saw that the seven people had a disparate face, and did not believe Lu Ronghuai's nonsense.

"Alright, that's all for today's archery competition, I ......"

"Father......" Lu Ronghuai interrupted him, "You haven't congratulated your son-in-law yet." ”

“？”

Emperor Hongjia: "If you win the crown in the archery competition, you shouldn't be so arrogant, if it weren't for the sons of the six countries to let you, you might not win." ”

Lu Ronghuai: "Are you serious?" ”

Emperor Hongjia's eyes burst out, "......"

What is he serious, he is just talking politely, the lords of the six countries are still here, and they have to save some face, these three sons want to be angry with him.

"That's it," Lu Ronghuai waved his hand, looking generous, "Erchen can bear this grievance, Erchen doesn't want to reward him, but Erchen didn't expect to get even a word of blessing from his father." ”

The queen smiled and said softly: "Your Majesty, although the third child is an adult, he still maintains his youthful habits, so Your Majesty will promise him." ”

Emperor Hongjia snorted.

What kind of juvenile habits, such a big person is still not sensible, go back and let him learn the rules.

"What blessing do you want?"

Lu Ronghuai made a contemplative gesture, and after a while, he clapped his hands, "Father, the emperor wishes his sons and princesses a happy life for the rest of their lives." ”

Emperor Hongjia: "...... Good. ”

In the evening, it was a banquet for the ministers, but the people of the Six Kingdoms today were obviously not as happy as yesterday, and even the atmosphere of the entire hall was much lowered.

After the dinner, everyone went back to the palace, Lu Ronghuai took Chu Yuan by the hand, and the two walked forward slowly.

"Lord, is this the way back to the palace?" Chu Yuan looked around, slightly suspicious in his heart.

"So careful," Lu Ronghuai was originally looking at the stars in the sky, but when he heard this, he turned his head sideways, stretched out his hand and scratched his nose, "Don't go back to the palace first, I'll take you to a place." ”

The tip of his nose was touched by him, slightly itchy, and Chu Yuan held a hat in his hand, intending to put it back on.

Lu Ronghuai stopped him, "Don't wear it at night." ”

Chu Yuan's eyes widened, "The prince is thick-skinned, and the minister can't do it." ”

When he washed up in the morning, he saw dense kiss marks on the side of his neck, as well as red and swollen lips, and he stood in place in fright, helpless.

There was no way to see people like this, so he had no choice but to take out the hat and continue to wear it.

"It's so dark at night, no one will see it, good, don't wear it, I don't have a chance to take a good look at you today."

Lu Ronghuai took the hat in his hand and threw it directly to Xianshuang, who was following behind.

"I'm in a hurry in the morning, and I'll go back in the evening and find you a pair of fox fur collars, and when the time comes, you won't be able to see it."

"Hmm."

The two of them walked all the way to the Juxing Pavilion.

"You two are on guard outside." He left Xianfeng Xianshuang to guard the door, and led Chu Yuan into the house with a swagger.

Juxing Pavilion is much smaller than Guanghao Palace, but it is also spacious and tidy, the hall is lit by candles, Lu Ronghuai stretched out his hand to block Chu Yuan's eyes, pulled him into his arms and hugged him, and turned his head to look at the hall.

"Put out the candle and come out and say."

Chu Yuan moved his little head, and his nose was filled with the cold breath of a man, and this smell had been surrounding him last night for a long time.

He blushed and broke free from his embrace.

"Why don't you give it a hug?" Lu Ronghuai sighed faintly, his tone was full of grievances, "I don't want my face today, let those fools make you happy, don't be angry, little ancestor, I'll kneel down for you and admit your mistakes, okay?" ”

Chu Yuan was amused by him, he tried to restrain the smile on his lips, and deliberately straightened his face.

"Then you kneel."

Lu Ronghuai hugged the person and bit his ear, "Okay little ancestor, kneel when you go back." ”

"Ahem, lord." A familiar voice came from beside him.

Chu Yuan turned his head to see that the candle had been extinguished, and only two tall black shadows could be seen in the darkness.

Lu Ronghuai gently patted Chu Yuan's back, "This is General Bai and Miss Bai." ”

"Sit down and talk." Lu Ronghuai put his arm around Chu Yuan's shoulders and brought the person to the left.

There are stone tables and stone chairs, and the stones are cold at night, where is Lu Ronghuai willing to let Chu Yuan suffer this crime, and directly let Chu Yuan sit on his lap.

Chu Yuan refused, although the two black shadows on the opposite side couldn't see his face clearly, he knew that with the skills of a military general, he would definitely be able to see him clearly.

Lu Ronghuai: "If you don't obey, you will get sick, and if you are sick, you have to drink medicine, Ah Yuan has forgotten the taste of that medicine?" ”

Chu Yuan paused and let go of his hand little by little.

The medicine is too bitter, and he doesn't like to drink it.

"The princess doesn't have to be restrained, the ministers didn't see anything." Bai Qingyu said in a low voice, she was thoughtful and took the initiative to alleviate Chu Yuan's embarrassment.

Lu Ronghuai touched the little head in his arms comfortingly, and turned his head to look at Bai Yi.

"General Bai hinted at the dinner party that this king came to you, and now that this king is here, it doesn't hurt if General Bai has something to say."

Bai Yi glanced at Chu Yuan.

Lu Ronghuai clasped Chu Yuan's waist with one hand and supported his head with the other, "Ah Yuan is the closest person to this king, and this king will not hide anything from him." ”

Bai Yi didn't dare to agree, Chu Yuan was from the Chu State, and it was not a wise move to trust a foreign prince so much.

Although he didn't say this, Lu Ronghuai understood his expression.

Lu Ronghuai chuckled and suddenly looked at Bai Qingyu.

"Miss Bai, the most important thing between husband and wife is honesty, is what this king said right?"

Bai Qingyu heard the meaning of his words, was silent for a moment, and admitted, "Yes." ”

Bai Yi: "Lord Wang, the minister came to you tonight to ask, what does the prince mean by what he said today?" ”

Lu Ronghuai: "What this king said is not clear enough? ”

Bai Yi: "The prince knows that what you said will have an irreparable impact on the ministers and the little girl. ”

Lu Ronghuai: "This king is just giving you a suggestion, what to do, or the general chooses it himself." ”

"I only hope that the little girl can live a stable life."

"Miss Bai has made the best choice right now."

Bai Qingyu didn't speak.

Bai Yi asked: "How does the prince know that it is right to choose the Eighth Highness?" In case of...... In case ......"

"Then let Miss Bai marry Yu Kui."

Bai Yi slapped the table and said excitedly: "How could I let Qing Yu marry that person who was full of calculations for her." ”

"That's it, Rong Shen is simple and lively, Miss Bai is calm and introverted, this king thinks they are a good match."

Bai Qingyu closed his eyes, and there was a dark ink color that could not be dissolved, "His Royal Highness is very good, and the courtiers don't want to harm him." ”

"You want to get out of the marriage?" Lu Ronghuai accurately grasped the key to her words.

When Chu Yuan heard this, he looked at Bai Qingyu in surprise.

Bai Qingyu: "If you don't withdraw from the marriage, when it is time to get married, the courtiers will ...... It is the sin of deceit. ”

"Who said," Lu Ronghuai played with Chu Yuan's waist hanging down, "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, instead of being scared for a lifetime, it is better to gamble, maybe it will usher in the willows and flowers." ”

Bai Yi thought of the military power he had already handed over, and he thought that by doing so, he would be able to protect his Qing Yu.

However, those people are gluttonous people who eat people without blinking, as long as he is still Bai Yi, Bai Qingyu will never be able to live a stable life.

That Eighth Highness......

Seeing that there is no scheming, I just don't know if I can accept Qingyu's identity.

Bai Yi looked at Bai Qingyu worriedly.

He made a decision in his heart.

Bai Yi took out a scroll from his sleeve, put it on the stone table, and slowly pushed it in front of Lu Ronghuai.

"This is the western border defense map, and there is also a map of the important terrain and mountains of the Six Kingdoms that I have spent ten years sorting out, please accept it."

Bai Qingyu looked at Bai Yi in astonishment.

These scrolls can be said to be Bai Yi's life's work, and he actually gave them to Lu Ronghuai.

Lu Ronghuai looked at the scroll, there was no shock or surprise on his face, "What does this mean, general?" ”

Bai Yi's face was calm, "These are my only bargaining chips, if I want to cooperate with the prince, I have to come up with something to show my sincerity." ”

Lu Ronghuai smiled.

"Take it back, this king doesn't need it."

Bai Yi raised his head suddenly, but he didn't expect to be rejected.

"Lord Wang?"

Lu Ronghuai shook his head, "If you want to cooperate with this king, this king is very happy, but this king will not accept these things." ”

"Why?" Bai Yi asked in a hoarse voice.

Lu Ronghuai: "Since General Bai is willing to cooperate, he should try to believe in this king, this king takes a fancy to General Bai, not these dead things." ”

"With these, if the prince wants to fight the Six Kingdoms in the future, he will be able to get twice the result with half the effort."
