The eldest princess and Li [rebirth]

When the fifteenth day was climbing onto the hem of Lu Shi's skirt, Chu Ran grabbed it, why the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year... She threw it directly to Liancheng.

Liancheng hugged Fifteen and didn't think much about it, instead he smiled gratefully at Chu Ran.

Lu Shi's expression was unclear, and he didn't make a sound.

Fifteen, who was being held, slapped Liancheng's wrist, throbbing with pain, Fifteen kicked his hind legs, jumped down, and got back to Lu Shi's feet.

Several paw prints were scratched on Liancheng's wrist, the pain was so painful that he was almost dumbfounded, his cat had changed his mind.

Chu Ran smiled faintly, "I told you a long time ago, but if you don't believe it yourself, do you still want to take it back?"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly condensed, only Fifteen screamed twice.Liancheng was dejected, looked at Fifteen with red eyes, and bowed to Lu Shi: "Then I will have to take care of Fifteen."

Lu Shi said, "Fifteen is very good."

Her words always made people feel other meanings, and Chu Ran also felt that she had a pun, so he didn't bother to pay attention to it, turned around and left.

"Wait a minute, Your Highness." Lu Shi called her to stop, his face was cold, his eyes staring at Chu Ran were as light as water, and ripples spread out.

Liancheng knew that the two of them had something to say, so he saluted and withdrew, leaving them to talk in detail.

As soon as she stepped back, Chu Ran found a seat far away from Lu Shi and sat down. She lowered her head and did not look up at Lu Shi.Lu Shi first said: "Marquis Changping told me several times about repairing the city wall, does His Highness have a way to solve it?"

Chu Ran had no choice.In the dream, there was no repair of the city wall, and since he hadn't returned to Yingdu for several days, he didn't know the situation of the court, so he really had no idea at the moment.

Lu Shi put the teacup on the side table, and there seemed to be frost and thin ice between his brows. When he saw Chu Ran bowed his head, the spring ice melted, adding a bit of human fireworks. She said seriously: "I will talk to Your Highness. A deal."

"What kind of deal?" Chu Ran raised her eyes. Could it be that she has a way to repair the city wall?

Lu Shi said: "My condition is to let His Majesty repair the city wall, and His Highness is not allowed to withdraw the engagement, how about it?"

Chu Ran didn't respond, but went to fiddle with the snacks on the food table. This is a new one from He Ji, and there is a small pouch with sugar and cheese in it.At this time, the lotus leaves are just blooming, which is very rare, so it has become a new product.

She should not, Lu Shi knew that she did not agree, and did not urge him, saying: "The prince has been grounded."

"I know about this. Lu Xiang doesn't need to provoke me." Chu Ran only stared at the snacks on the table, and the faint aroma of lotus leaves lingered at the tip of his nose.In the previous life, the prince was also grounded, but he was released after a month. His Majesty gave him a few words of non-painful reprimand, and since then, Heng Wang has become more and more domineering.

She and the prince gave in again and again, but nothing happened again, who made them lose their mother's protection.

The snack smells good, but it's very sweet, no matter how much she doesn't like Lu Shi, she can't eat it alone, so she gave half of it to Lu Shi and put it on the table next to her.When she turned around, she remembered that Lu Shi couldn't see, so she turned back and put the snack in her hand.

Lu Shi's hands are very cold, it's almost summer, and she's not in good health yet?

Chu Ran couldn't move anymore, and after taking a look at her, he returned to his original position, and only said some snacks: "Acheng bought this as a gift to Lu Xiang, thank you for taking care of the cat for him."

There were still some snacks, Lu Shi took a bite, it was sweet and greasy, she frowned and stopped eating.

Chu Ran never answered the question, Axiu came over according to the time, and stood in the corridor without daring to enter, and said softly: "It's almost noon, can your Highness stay for dinner?"

The aroma of dim sum exudes in the room, which makes people feel hungry. Chu Ran nodded as he looked at the sky outside.Liancheng outside had gone somewhere for a long time, and she called several times but no one responded.When returning to the room, Lu Shi remained motionless, still holding the snack in her hand. She walked over and put the snack on the table.

Axiu could see some ambiguity from Chu Ran's attitude, and she didn't understand what she meant.Princess Xinping is young and young, and she is really not a good match for the steady and prudent Lu Xiang.

Over the years, the relationship between the two has not been very close, it is like being with a stranger, they will smile when they meet, and now that the princess is about to reach her age, His Majesty has never mentioned the marriage, and will not allow Princess Xinping to withdraw the engagement.

So it has been deadlocked.She was a little bit aggrieved for the prime minister, if she wanted to retire, she would have done so earlier, why bother to delay Lu Xiang, if time goes by, Lu Xiang's life will be difficult.

The emperor wanted to retire, but he couldn't save face, so he just waited for Princess Xinping to make a fuss, and the whole court would know about it, so he could justifiably retire.Unexpectedly, Princess Xinping didn't like the prime minister, but she still saved some face for her. She only wrote a letter to withdraw the engagement, which ran counter to the emperor's intention.

Yes, it has been delayed like this.

After the dim sum was released, Lu Shi straightened his back, and Chu Ran asked her about her return journey.The murderer who assassinated her is still in the hands of Lu Xiang, and the prince can be rescued when he returns.

Lu Shi said: "In a few days, will His Highness come with you?"

Chu Ran felt weird, and still didn't answer, but looked at Lu Shi's behavior, thinking that she had a plan in her heart, but she just refused to tell her.Thinking of this, she lowered her eyebrows.

Lu Shi sighed silently, His Highness had too much prejudice against her, and always felt that marrying her would harm the crown prince.Her eyes were clear, and she had already recovered. Seeing Chu Ran again, although there was joy in her heart, it was not worth the pain of Chu Ran abandoning her in the previous life.

In two lifetimes, Chu Ran refused to believe her.

Seeing this, Lu Shi didn't feel soft-hearted. She had resentment in her heart, but at this time, she couldn't say it. They really couldn't be too close, and the things in the previous life couldn't be repeated.

But it is also not allowed to withdraw the marriage.Once the marriage is divorced, Chu Ran will face the situation of getting married, and there will be some twists and turns at that time. She thought about whether she should be reminded that she will face these difficulties after the divorce.

She wanted to speak, but she saw Chu Ran's eyes dodging left and right. She thought she had something on her mind, so she had to hold back her words and listened to Chu Ran's words: "I don't know how Lu Xiang can solve the prince's dilemma? Are those assassins still there?"

Her voice is not loud, with a bit of softness, just like Shiwu, who is flattering and obedient.Lu Shi didn't laugh at her this time, so as not to lose his popularity again, he was only willing to tell her half: "I will solve the situation for the prince when I return to Beijing."

Not to mention anything else, Chu Ran curled her lips, ashamed to ask further questions, because she was already very spineless just now.

Axiu brought the food over, she didn't dare to stay inside, and stepped back after the table and chopsticks were set.Lu Shi didn't move at all, Chu Ran sat down first, and was a little embarrassed seeing her not moving, so he kindly asked, "Can you come here by yourself?"

Lu Shi didn't understand the meaning of this sentence, he frowned slightly and saw Chu Ran walking over, reaching out to support her.She wanted to refuse, but she held back when she thought of Chu Ran's uncertain temper, so as not to lose her popularity again, and had to discuss things after returning to Yingdu.

For example, Chu Ran's whereabouts these days, of course, he can't tell the truth.

What Axiu cooked today was a steamed fish dish, served with several green vegetarian dishes.The two of them ate in silence, and Lu Shi had something on his mind, so he only ate rice.Chu Ran only pretended that she couldn't see, so he kindly brought vegetables for her, and when he was eating fish, he put another piece in the bowl for her, and shaved the fishbone thoughtfully, because blind people are easy to get stuck when eating fish.

Lu Shi smiled, did not reveal her actions, and said when he paused: "Your Highness is back in Beijing, have you ever thought about how to reply to His Majesty, where these days are?"

Chu Ran raised his eyes, "What's the prime minister's opinion?"

"His Highness went to visit the mountains and rivers, and he has never met a minister, and he has never been to the Northwest City."

Chu Ran was stunned, "Why?"

"Your Highness is worried that being too close to your ministers will attract His Majesty's suspicion. If you go back and tell the truth, wouldn't it be that you have harmed the Prince? Even if those murderers are sent to His Majesty, I'm afraid he won't believe it again." Lu Yi spoke uprightly, look steadily forward.

Chu Ran understood, nodded and said: "I understand, thank Lu Xiang for reminding me."

"Your Highness, why do you need to say thank you? Your Highness needs to return to Ying Du at a later date, and His Highness will not be disappointed." Lu Shi said.

Lu Shi's words were all from Chu Ran's point of view, Chu Ran smiled bitterly, thinking about one thing in his heart, and really wanted to do it, all kinds of feelings in his heart couldn't help but burst out, ups and downs, all making people sad.

Lu Shi should treat her worse, imprison her like in another courtyard, maybe she can be hardened, but Lu Shi began to put himself in her shoes.In her previous life, she had used her and then abandoned her, so it's not good to delay her in this life.

However, Lu Xiang's attitude was that he refused to call off the engagement no matter what.She had a slight headache and said, "I'll go back to the Hou Mansion first, Prime Minister Lu will take care of himself."

She couldn't be ignorant of good and bad, so she could only leave Lu Shi far away at this time, hoping that she would figure it out soon.

As soon as Chu Ran left, Lu Shi looked at her seat and bowls and chopsticks just now. When she first came, Chu Ran was still on edge, her tone was arrogant, and she was probably full of thoughts when she left.

She is not an unreasonable person, she has kindness in her heart, and she is mostly just thinking about the prince, now she just needs to guide her slowly.

****

After Chu Ran left, it was still a few days later, and Shiwu stayed in the small house, making some of his favorite food with Lu Shi and Axiu every day.

Lu Shi's eyesight recovered, and she planned to leave, but she didn't want to inform Chu Ran.

The relationship between Chu Ran and Chang Pinghou is good, and if they leave today, I am afraid that they will never have the chance to see each other again in this life, so it is better to leave more time for their grandparents to catch up with each other.

There were mostly Chu Ran and her clothes in the cabinet. Chu Ran left the clothes of the man's family. She put them in her luggage and brought her share back to Yingdu.

Before leaving, I should speak to Marquis Changping, but she is not allowed to show up, and I can only send someone to the Hou's mansion to send a message.

Marquis Changping just came back from the camp, and after hearing the news, he followed others.For some reason, Chu Ran just thought he was going to meet ordinary people and didn't care.

When Marquis Changping came back at night, he was very worried, and Chu Ran asked why after seeing him.

He talked about the weathering of the city wall, and sighed: "With the current situation, even the family may find it more difficult to leave. Your Highness should protect yourself when you go back. Don't be impulsive in everything, think more, if there is something difficult to decide You should ask the prime minister."

Chu Ran felt bitter in his heart, and returned to his yard after answering.

With the current situation, Lu Shi can be regarded as occupying half of the power in the court, and it is unknown whether there are generals in her hands, but according to her previous life, she is afraid that she has more power in her hands.

She is like a fish in water, and because of His Majesty's trust in her, once the two of them have an intimate move, she will be so tired that she will lose her authority.

The next day, she rode a horse to the neighborhood, walked around the house a few times, remembered the deal Lu Shi mentioned, gritted her teeth, and rode in.

Pushing open the door, there was silence in the courtyard, she walked in and stopped on the porch.

The cleaning woman came in a hurry and said, "Xiao Langjun, the girl is gone, don't you know?"

Chu Ran was shocked, "When did you leave?"

The woman replied: "I left at dawn, I thought you knew."

Chu Ran ran out of the yard in a hurry, got on his horse and chased after him.
