Thinking of this, her eyes fell on the girl's outstanding face, and her eyes softened.

"If Xiao Yunheng takes the position of King Ning in the future, maybe we can restore the previous marriage contract. By then, you will be Princess Ning."

With no in-laws to waste her time, she can be in charge as soon as she enters the door, and she is in the position of princess, which woman can't be tempted.

Qin Zhiyan is no exception.

"But mother, there is still Lu Xiyue. Besides, it is still unknown whether Prince Ning's mansion can overturn the case."

Even though she said that, she already had expectations in her heart.

Mrs. Ning'an Hou smiled: "I don't think so, Yan'er, you just listen to your mother and don't have any ill relations with Lu Xiyue."

"Why, she is just the daughter of a criminal minister, an exile, and I still want to let her go."

"Yan'er." Madam Ning'an looked at her dissatisfiedly: "She is Xiao Yunheng's person after all, even if Prince Ning's mansion can't turn around in the future, you still have to worry about your own reputation."

"...Understood." Qin Zhiyan agreed in a muffled voice.

After buying all the quilts from the street, Lu Xiyue directly stuffed the things into the hands of the two guards.

"I can't carry these things as a girl, please help me two big brothers, this will be treated as my invitation to drink with you."

After stuffing the quilt, she took out two more 50 taels of silver bills, one for each person.

The two guards were tall and burly, and they could barely see the way while holding the quilt at the moment, so they could only hold the cloth rope in the middle, one in each hand.

The two confiscated the money she gave.

"It's just a little effort, Miss Lu should go back quickly, it's getting late."

Who doesn't want white money, and it's because I don't dare to accept it.

They are people sent by His Majesty, and taking money is equivalent to taking bribes.

Besides, there is no reason for a big man to let a girl lift heavy things with empty hands.

Lu Xiyue was a little surprised, seeing that the two of them didn't mean to yell, she didn't insist, but turned a corner, bought five or six roast chickens and went back.

The guard's eyes widened.

I didn't realize that since Miss Lu is so slender, she has quite a good appetite.

After returning to the palace, the two guards sent the bedding inside before leaving.

Lu Xiyue stopped them, and brought four roasted chickens wrapped in greased paper to the two of them.

There are four guards at the gate, and they didn't embarrass her before. Since they don't accept money, let's take the roast chicken as a thank you gift.

The guard who was stuffed with two roasted chickens was dumbfounded, and saw the girl in front of him smiling and said: "Thanks to a few big brothers today, there is nothing to entertain in the mansion, just a few roasted chickens, don't be disgusted."

Build a good relationship with them, and it will be easier to go out in the future.

The beauty wrapped in the oiled paper bag was still warm, and the scent of roasted oil was sent out through the gap, and it was sent to the breath in the wind. The guard who had stood for a day swallowed, looked at the girl's delicate eyebrows and eyes, and couldn't tell. Say no.

It's just a roast chicken, and it's not worth anything.

Thinking in this way, the two did not refuse, and separated with the other two guarding the gate with the roast chicken.

At the same time, news spread that Lu Xiyue was wandering the streets with two guards.

People from all parties heard the news and didn't know what to say for a while.

Lu Xiyue...has a big heart.

It's this time, and she can still buy roast chicken on the street. What's even more surprising is that the guards sent by His Majesty are still following her to protect her.

What exactly does His Majesty mean?

Sitting on the soft couch, after finally reading all the memorials, Emperor Hui was stunned when he heard the news from Zhou Wei.

"You said, this little girl led the guards to buy roast chicken on the street?"

"It's not just roast chicken, but also bedding."

Zhou Wei also found it unbelievable, logically speaking, shouldn't Lu Xiyue stay in the palace honestly at this time.

If it were anyone, he would not dare to go out and show off at this time, let alone leading the guards sent by His Majesty.

Emperor Hui put down the memorial, frowned for a while and thought for a while, then suddenly became amused: "This little girl is quite interesting, I remember, she was quite ostentatious in the past."

Zhou Wei smiled and nodded.

It's more than ostentatious, it's simply reckless.

How can he be an ordinary person who dares to flirt with even the young gentleman from the noble family.

"You just said that she also bought bedding, why is the palace so dilapidated?" Emperor Hui changed the subject and his face tensed.

Zhou Wei hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Prince Ning's Mansion has been sealed for almost two years. When the house was ransacked, there was nothing left. It is normal to have no bedding."

"Is it."

Emperor Hui's face was gloomy, he thought for a long time, waved his big hand, and gave an order: "Zhou Wei, you pick two smart people from the palace to serve you tomorrow, and take care of the palace's things along the way."

Zhou Wei was startled when he heard that, the case of the palace has not been found out why, His Majesty actually took care of Prince Ning's son in this way, obviously no one summoned Prince Ning's son today.

It seems that Prince Ning's Mansion is about to turn around this time.

He complied calmly, and early the next morning, he personally led the palace servants to the palace.

Staring at the parties in the palace, they watched helplessly that the chief eunuch beside Emperor Hui entered Prince Ning's mansion with the palace people and a bunch of things, and when he came out, it was empty, with only a few guards left beside him.

Everyone couldn't sit still.

His Majesty was too kind to the prince of Prince Ning's mansion.

He is still a criminal minister now, and he is also a palace man and a gifter.

Presumably Prince Ning's Mansion is not far from turning over.

With the things Zhou Wei sent, life for Lu Xiyue and Xiao Yunheng was much easier. Although they were still bored in the palace all day, fortunately the place was big enough, and it took Lu Xiyue wandering around for two days to see all the places.

Just when everyone thought His Majesty would definitely summon Xiao Yunheng, after four or five days, there was no movement at all.

Everyone couldn't help but start to doubt.

Could it be that His Majesty is playing with people, or wants to test something.

……

After finishing lunch, I walked around the garden with Xiao Yunheng, when the elder brother guard at the door suddenly sent a letter.

"A person who claims to be the girl's brother sent it, and brought these."

The guard took out a key from behind and handed it to her.

"Thank you, Brother Guard."

"Miss, you're welcome." The guard smiled and returned to the gate.

"It should be a letter from elder brother." Lu Xiyue looked at Xiao Yunheng.

Xiao Yunheng understood, and found an excuse to send the two palace servants who followed behind him away, and they opened the envelope.

In a few words, they first asked about their situation, and then explained the purpose of the key.

This is actually the key to the Zhao family's warehouse!

Lu Xiyue was taken aback. Did the elder brother get dizzy from drinking too much? Why did you entrust such an important thing to her? Aren't you afraid that she will run away with the money?

The letter said that there were two keys in total, one was in his hand and the other was for her to keep.

Lu Xiyue felt that she couldn't bear this burden.
