The eldest princess and Li [rebirth]

The sugar was all in her stomach, Chu Ran didn't bother with her, she still asked about serious matters.The fine sugar is soft and doesn't need to be crunched in the mouth. She packed some with a purse, but her eyes were on Lu Shi. As long as she dared to say something like Xinyang, even the purse would hit her.

Lu Shi said it twice and stopped. Seeing her pretending to be sweet, he went to help her and said, "These things are small and have little effect. If I take it lightly, it will ruin the atmosphere in Yingdu City. If it is serious, these three people If you don’t want to stop, it’s better to be locked inside.”

It's not pleasing to the left and right, so it's better to keep shutting down and wait for His Majesty's order to come over.

Except for the prime minister, all the people in charge of affairs in Yingdu City followed Emperor Chu to leave the palace to have fun. Huo Qi was the elder of the two dynasties, but it was his own business. If he put pressure on Prime Minister Lu, others would poke him in the back.

After thinking about it, I can only hold my nose and continue to endure.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xiang was like a rock, which could not be pried.

Chu Ran didn't think too much about it. He held the fine sugar in his hand, thought for a while, put the sugar in his mouth, and said, "That's okay. When I go back, I'll just give a reason to prevaricate, but what should I do with Concubine Ming?" ?”

"Concubine Ming, please?" Lu Shi was surprised.

Chu Ran shook his head: "Never, Xinyang begged me."

Lu Shi said: "If Concubine Ming valued Elder Brother, she would go to find you in person. It's nothing to let Xin Yang go to you, she just wants to deal with it."

Thinking about Concubine Ming's character, the Zhou family didn't want to see Xinyang that day, and asked her to ask, if it didn't work out, if it did, they would be so ashamed that they couldn't see Xinyang.

Chu Ran didn't know the internal affairs of Zhou's family, and only thought that the concubine Ming didn't want to show up. Lu Shi knew that these days he specially went to investigate the affairs of Zhou's family.The concubine Ming is so young, why did she enter the palace? It can be seen that the old man Zhou is not as clear and benevolent as the outside world said.

As soon as she said this, Chu Ran understood. After a moment of stunned, he said, "Concubine Ming is at odds with the Zhou family, why did you let Xinyang marry her?"

"The eldest son of the Zhou family's second wife has bad legs and feet. After Xinyang goes, she can keep her innocence. She is weak, and if she doesn't marry, she will marry her." Lu Shi said.

Chu Ran's face turned red when he heard the words "Innocent Body", and he bit his candy and stopped asking.

Lu Shi smiled lightly, and didn't continue to ask, Xinyang is probably not innocent anymore.After Concubine Ming entered the palace, the two of them got tired of being together almost every day, and when they fell in love, they couldn't hold back.

On the other hand, Chu Ran, who is a few months older than her, understands most of the court affairs, but these are ignorant.

After dinner, Lu Shi sent her to the palace as usual, and gave her a box of flower candies before leaving. These candies were exquisite and couldn't be made in the palace.Chu Ran didn't refuse, and asked His Majesty about the return journey when Lu Shi was about to get off the car.

When His Majesty comes back, she can leave Yunmengze.

"Wait until the weather cools down." Lu Shi saw her pink complexion, holding candy, with a dejected look on her face, she is not someone who calms down, and it is common for her to be locked in Yunmengze for many days and be bored.

Chu Ran didn't know when it would be cooler, at least it would be January, she had no choice but to watch Lu Shi get off the car.I wanted to ask, she could go to Yunmeng Ze next time.

Don't ask any more when the words are in your mouth. Lu Xiang is very busy, so he has time to go wherever he wants.

After returning to Yunmengze, Lingyi was still guarding in her palace, Shiwu squatted by the door, the hair on his back stood up, facing her angrily.As soon as Chu Ran approached, he heard the sound of a bell, and Shiwu almost rushed over.

I don't know if I smell Lu Xiang's scent on her or welcome Chu Ran.

Chu Ran hugged Fifteen, and said apologetically, "Lu Xiang never talked about letting people go, I'm afraid my sister will be disappointed."

Hearing what she said, Ling Yi felt a little happy in his heart, and Chu Ran couldn't ask for things that she couldn't ask for.She laughed immediately and said: "Don't force it, thank you sister, it's getting late, you can rest."

After finishing speaking, he happily bypassed one person and one cat, and went back to the palace.

Chu Ran couldn't figure out why she was so happy for a while, so she went back to the palace with the box in her arms. She took a bath and changed her dressing as usual, and the wound was healed.

The candies in the box came from Jiangnan, they were different in size and lifelike, she took a bite of the kumquat candy, it was really like an orange, and her toothache was so sore.

Xinyang came to inquire about the news at night, and seeing her eating candy alone, she was quite unhappy, saying: "Sister, if you eat candy alone, your teeth will rot."

Chu Ran ignored her, and said: "I have met Lu Xiang, this matter is inappropriate, you tell Concubine Ming."

"Understood." Xinyang responded casually, and reached out to grab the candy to eat.

There are not many candies in the box, and there is only one kind of each. After Xinyang ate the first one, he couldn't see the second one.After Chu Ran ate a few, she put it away and drove her away: "Hurry up and talk to Concubine Ming, don't waste time."

Xinyang's eyes were almost glued to the candy, and when she couldn't eat it, she asked about the recipe. Chu Ran shook her head, wondering how she knew about these recipes.Xinyang snorted and left.

Chu Ran was happy, bored alone, and fell asleep after drinking a few cups of drunken peach blossoms.

Falling asleep drunk, sleeping very well, when I wake up the next day, it is still a boring day.

The Ministry of Rites was organizing her wedding, and officials from the Ministry of Rites would come to the island from time to time. Lu Xiang said that he would not let her go, and he persisted until the end of July. The same is true for people, but it is cheaper for people without titles.

After a month of quarrel, the three families complained to each other, and hatred came to life.

At the beginning of August, military generals and protons all came to Beijing, and the patrols in the city were stricter than before. Lu Shi was so busy that he almost had no time to spare himself, and every few days he would send some food and play to Chu Ran.

Every time it was done quietly, after Xinyang knew about it, he went to watch it every day, and he could always get some benefits.

Just a few days after August, news of His Majesty's return to Beijing came. Concubine Ming had already moved out of Yunmeng Lake, and there were only two people on the island. She asked the palace staff to tidy up and return to the Princess Mansion.

Xinyang was reluctant to part with her, and did not dare to open her mouth to live in the princess mansion. When she was about to leave the island, Chu Ran gave her a few diamonds, and told her to wear them if she wanted to, and there was no need to hide them.

Two days before His Majesty returned to court, she moved out of Yunmengze. Liancheng immediately came to congratulate her, holding an altar of Taohuadu in her hand. After saying a few words, Chu Ran drove her away and went back home for dinner.

After all the people had left, she went to the prime minister's mansion through the secret passage.

Axiu waited early, and when she heard the doorbell rang, she went to open the door. Seeing Chu Ran, she smiled and said, "I will take you outside to take a look?"

"Where did Prime Minister Lu go?" Chu Ran glanced around, it was almost dusk, and it was time to return home.

Axiu said: "Your Majesty is going back to the city, and Prime Minister Lu is busy preparing to welcome Sheng Jia."

Chu Ran nodded and followed her to the bamboo building.Most of the bamboo building has been built, and the flowing water below it is refreshing in summer.After walking for a while, the Hehuan Pond was all over the ground, and no one cleaned it. It was very beautiful from a distance.

She walked over, picked a few slices, hid them in her purse, and saved them for snacks when she went back.

The Prime Minister's Mansion is very different from what it was a month ago, and the main courtyard has also become wider. After Chu Ran looked at them one by one, it was dark.Axiu brought some snacks for her to eat, and she didn't know when Lu Xiang would come back.

Chu Ran waited patiently. After eating the whole dish of wishful rolls, no one came back. It was near Haishi when Lu Shi came back wearing stars and moons.

Axiu hurriedly ordered people to prepare meals, and then led them back out.Chu Ran was full of dim sum and was not very hungry, so she just stared at Lu Shi to eat.

There were fish and shrimp on the table. The shrimp had been steamed and eaten with sauce. Lu Shi peeled one and suddenly put it into the bowl in front of Chu Ran.She looked natural, but Chu Ran was taken aback, staring at the shrimp in the bowl and said nothing.

Lu Shi pretended not to see her blankness, and talked about the court affairs: "Protons are not very old when they enter the city, some of them are only ** years old, and they are currently staying in the mansion. These 30 or [-] people are not arranged at the moment. Easy."

As she spoke, Chu Ran listened, biting the shrimp meat, her eyelids slightly lifted, and fell on Lu Shi's hand peeling the shrimp.The hands used to hold the pen are now used to peel shrimp, which is also very pleasing to the eye.

After saying a few words, Chu Ran didn't say a word, Lu Shi paused, and when he looked up, he saw her staring at him in a daze, her eyes were fascinated, as if she was thinking about something.She put the peeled prawns in front of her, and said: "Recently, the cook made fumigated rose water, you can bring some with you when your Highness leaves."

Chu Ran came back to his senses, puzzled and said: "Where did Prime Minister Lu find the chef, it's so powerful, Xinyang can't wait to move to Xiangfu."

"I brought it when I came back from the northwest." Lu Shi's expression remained the same.

Chu Ran murmured, "Why can't I meet you?"

Lu Shi took over and said, "Your Highness wants him to be on duty at the Princess Mansion tomorrow."

"Okay." Chu Ran readily agreed, bowed her head and continued to eat shrimp.

After dinner, the staff came to see me.In the current eventful autumn, it is not easy for Chu Ran to drag others to enjoy the moon and return to the princess mansion with two bottles of flower dew.

At the time of Haishi, the crown prince sent a letter to tell her the general process of the trip to leave the palace. It is not a matter of a day or two for His Majesty to favor the actor.An actor has no background, even if he is promoted to the concubine, it will not be a hindrance, and it will not be a problem to give birth to an heir.

Therefore, the queen will not stop.If it were someone with a backer like Concubine Ming, she would be a little apprehensive.

King Heng performed his filial piety daily before His Majesty, washed away the suspicion, and made His Majesty trust him again.

The prince is upright and disdainful of this, allowing him to take advantage of it.His Majesty's preference is also because King Heng is good at disguising, Chu Ran has seen it in his dreams, and he is not in a hurry to expose it. One day, he will understand.

The letter also mentioned that the actor was presented by King Ning.She had seen dozens of beautiful actors in Prince Ning's other courtyard, but she did not expect to be sent to His Majesty's dragon couch.

King Ning's move was undoubtedly like throwing a stone into the quiet lake, as if it was about to hit a wave.Chu Ran pinched the letter, his mind was in chaos.As soon as the Huo family suffered a big loss, King Ning sent someone into the palace, how could he not arouse the Huo family's hatred.

She was a little apprehensive, what would King Ning do to intervene at this time, revenge on the queen, revenge on the Huo family would not work.

The words in the prince's letter were extremely calm, as if he was extremely happy to see the matter being brought to fruition, the harem vying for favor, the queen was the one who had a headache, and the prince had nothing to do with it.

After thinking about it for a while, she put the letter on the candle and burned it. The letter was uncertain, and she couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning on the couch, so she went to the secret passage and rang the bell.

Almost at the sound, the door swung open.

When Lu Shifang entered the bedroom, when she heard the bell, she thought she heard it wrong. Even if she heard it wrong, she still went to open the secret passage door.

At the door, Chu Ran looked at Lu Shi with a confused face, and her pink face was troubled.Lu Shi stretched out his hand to pull her over, and said, "The secret passage is shady, come out quickly."

After she came out, Lu Shi placed her on a soft couch, wrapped her in a thin blanket, and asked someone to fetch hot water.

Chu Ran was wrapped in a thin blanket, quietly watching the busy Lu Shi.The window is open, and there is a red pomegranate flower outside, and the red can be felt in the dark night.It blooms in full bloom in summer, probably just transplanted, and I have never seen it before.

Alternating flowers and leaves, green branches and leaves set off the red flowers, giving people a sense of vitality and vitality.

When Lu Shi entered again, he didn't ask her why she came, and put the milk in front of her: "Your Highness, wait for me for a while."

She was neatly dressed, the same one before dusk, probably going to take a bath.Chu Ran nodded, held the milk, and drank it in small sips.

Axiu came over to salute, then went lightly to the inner room to make the bed and folded the quilt, glanced outside, and put two blankets on the couch.

After doing all this well, he bent over and retreated without staying.

After Chu Ran drank the milk, she went to the window to touch the red durian flower. When she touched the flower with her fingertips, Lu Shi came back.

After taking a bath, she smelled of water mist and her face was flushed. Chu Ran turned around and took a look and then stopped moving.I remembered the alluring scenery when I teased her early in the morning in the northwest.

Her face was flushed, and she picked off a flower without any hassle, looking down at the red flower in her hand.

Lu Shi closed the door and turned to look at her: "Does Your Highness want to sleep?"

When she said this, she was very natural, without reverie, without ambiguity. Chu Ran felt that she was serious, but when she thought about it carefully, the two of them were not married, and they shared the same bed. How could they be serious.

Lu Shi has been busy and exhausted these days. Chu Ran saw her thinness from her back, and suddenly felt that he was making trouble for her.

Gritting his teeth, he said, "I'll go back first."

Lu Shi turned around, suddenly feeling strange about her emotional changes: "What's wrong?"

Chu Ran couldn't tell why, but after hesitating, Lu Shi came over, took her hand, and walked back to the bed.

Perhaps because Fang took a bath, Lu Xiang's hands were much hotter than usual, warm and delicate to the touch.

After a while, Lu Shi let go.

Chu Ran was lost, and she didn't know where the loss came from. She cheered up and climbed onto the bed.

There were two blankets on the couch, and she was already in her pajamas, so she didn't need to take off her pajamas, she just lay down after getting on, and her whole body was wrapped in it.

The lamp in the inner room was extinguished, leaving only a single lamp in front of the couch, which was clearly extinguished.

The two were silent, and the brocade tent was lowered.

At some point, Lu Shi's hand touched Chu Ran's arm, and then his wrist. She held it tightly and asked tentatively, "Your Highness is offering an actor for King Ning?"

Chu Ran turned to look at her, not surprised. Lu Xiang was thoughtful, how could he not have guessed that she had received the prince's letter, and after pondering for a moment, he asked, "Uncle Ning has no intention of going to court, is it all just pretending?"

Almost everyone knew that Emperor Chu was in love with beauty. Concubine Ming was the best example of this.However, he knows how to measure, and he can't mess with the position. The concubine Ming is only concubine when she is pregnant. Those actors who can't climb up will spend the rest of their lives in the palace.

The courtiers did not dare to show their beauty because the Emperor Chu was in a state of mind, and the high positions in the harem were all powerful ministers, and there were few actors.

King Ning was caught off guard this time, so she was naturally worried about the prince's status.

She looked sideways, her dark eyes were puzzled, Lu Shi touched her eyebrows, she didn't know what to do, her eyes were conditionally closed.

Her shivering appearance is not as high-spirited as that day, Lu Shi smiled, rubbed the center of her brows for her, and said in a gentle voice, "I asked King Ning to present the actor."

Hearing this, Chu Ran was shocked, and suddenly opened his eyes: "Why did you do this?"

She spoke badly and blamed Lu Yi.Lu Shi didn't care about her, but said softly: "It's all for the queen to find something to do, and when your majesty comes back, she will be the concubine."

What she said was unclear, Chu Ran brushed her hand away, stopped rubbing it for her, and said, "Aren't you afraid that Your Majesty will have another heir?"

"What are you afraid of? King Heng is here, and the queen is naturally more anxious than you." Lu Shi withdrew his hand without forcing her.

The harem is the queen's world, and she also cares about the concubine's heirs. Your majesty doesn't have many heirs, only four sons.The prince looks like that again, and the throne will belong to King Heng.

As soon as the crown prince dies, the King Heng's line will rise up, so why is the queen not in a hurry?There is one more person, and the royal family is behind her, how can she sit still.

Chu Ran thought for a while, and didn't quite agree with her approach, knowing that if she continued, she would be persuaded, so she simply covered her head with the quilt and went to sleep by herself.

She was sulking, which was the same as in her previous life.Lu Shi was wondering whether to let her go, if it took a long time, whether there would be trouble again.

When she came here tonight, she was uncertain. If she didn't make it clear and hid it in her heart, she wouldn't come here for a few days, and it would be a waste of time to coax her.

"Your Highness." She called out, but no one answered her.

She reached out and moved the blanket off Chu's head, and saw Chu Ran fell into a deep sleep.

The sleeping person was resting on his arm, revealing half of his face, the tip of the pen was slightly tilted, his face was flushed from suffocation, and his slender eyelashes trembled slightly.

Sleeps fast too.Lu Shi smiled lightly, and stretched out his hand to caress her cheek. Emperor Chu only had the world in his heart, and he was suspicious of the crown prince, and he was also the same for Heng Wang, but Heng Wang was used to acting, and the prince disdained it.

Chu Ran went to bed early and woke up early.As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Lu Shi beside her. She had a beautiful sleeping face, and when she closed her eyes, there was a gentleness unique to women.

Seeing her sleeping soundly, Chu Ran had bad thoughts. The two of them were so close that they could almost hear her long breathing, and they could even see the veins under the delicate skin on their cheeks.

Getting closer, getting closer, before reaching out his hand, Lu Shi suddenly opened his eyes, Chu Ran quickly shrank back, wrapped in a blanket, pretending not to wake up, like a turtle with a shrinking head.

The sky outside was dewy white, and it was another sunny day.

After Chu Ran washed up, Lu Shi was eating breakfast. The chef got orders to stew minced fish porridge this morning. As soon as Chu Ran came out, he could smell the aroma.

The two had breakfast, and the maidservant withdrew. Chu Ran put the porridge into his mouth spoon by spoon, and said with satisfaction: "Why doesn't Lu Xiang go to the government office today?"

"The Ministry of Etiquette has taken care of all the matters of welcoming the driver, and I have nothing serious to do."

Emperor Chu wanted to save face, so when he came back, he had to be greeted by all the officials. The Ministry of Rituals was busy all the time. Even though there were old rules, it was tiring to follow behind.He made a decree to come here, how dare all the officials refuse to follow.

Lu Shi took on the responsibility of supervision, so he naturally had to pay attention to every aspect and pay attention to the minutiae.She didn't care much about these things, and took a break from her busy schedule to get today's vacation.

After breakfast, give the embroidered pillowcase to Chu Ran, and go back to be her embroiderer.

Chu Ran touched the embroidery thread on it. The stitches were dense and the pattern was a bit old-fashioned. It must not have been embroidered by the embroiderer. Which embroiderer embroidered like this, I am afraid that she would be driven out early.

Most of them belonged to Lu Xiangxiu, Chu Ran tacitly accepted the things, and said: "Your Majesty is back, I'm afraid marriage will be put on the agenda."

It's not a trivial matter for a princess to get married.Chu Ran had dreamed in a dream that the two people in the bridal chamber respected each other like guests, and they seemed unfamiliar at first glance.

It's good for the queen to care about everything, but everything is a problem. Chu Ran would rather she not touch it, so as not to be disgusted.

The Ministry of Rites is making preparations, and the Palace Weaving Bureau is also rushing to embroider the princess's wedding dress.A few days ago, the Ministry of Rites was still asking where the princess got married, whether the princess' mansion or the palace.

Marrying from the Princess Mansion is more comfortable, but it is not as decent as in the palace. The Queen and the Ministry of Rites said that the Queen has passed away, so naturally it is better to marry from the Princess Mansion.

The Ministry of Rites puts the prime minister first, and asks her first.Lu Shi didn't make a decision either, and told the prince about the matter, and he made all the decisions.The crown prince is young, and he doesn't understand these things well, so he will inevitably be negligent. Lu Shi asked someone to raise some points, and what should be argued should still be argued.

Lu Shi didn't tell Chu Ran about these things, but reminded her to make clothes after she went back.

Chu Ran glanced at her, reluctantly went back to the princess mansion, drank a cup of flower dew to suppress the unwillingness in her heart, and sent someone to find the embroiderer, just to learn how to embroider.

After two days of embroidering, when Emperor Chu returned to the palace, she went to greet him with all the officials.

Emperor Chu was in good spirits. After seeing Chu Ran, he did not forget to ask about his injuries. After a few words of encouragement, he went back to Zhang Huatai to discuss the whereabouts of the general Proton.

The younger one was sent to study with the two princes, the older one was given a false title and guarded the palace gate with the imperial army, and Liancheng was sent to guard the north gate.

Lu Shi told him that there is no need to abide by the rules too much, but being too dutiful will make His Majesty suspect, so it is better to be more comfortable.

After Emperor Chu returned to the court, the Ministry of Rituals issued a memorial to ask the princess about the rules of marriage. The eldest princess arranged according to the queen's gift list, which was shabby and harsh.

Emperor Chu didn't care about these small things, and after seeing the memorial, he just followed the old routine, and thought that she would shield him from the knife, and pay more attention to it, and sent the beads and spices sent by Wujiang a few days ago to the princess mansion.

The prince turned up again, saying that the brother and sister love each other deeply, and the mother left early, wanting to marry the elder sister from the East Palace.The East Palace is the prince’s residence, not the princess’s bedroom. The ceremonial officer refused, and the Emperor Chu also agreed. All halls in the palace are allowed, but the East Palace is not.

Chu Ran got what she deserved, and didn't care about where she got married. After she held a box of Nanzhu, she asked someone to give a reward to the servant, and took out a small bead from the box and gave it to Xuanzhi The officer said with a smile: "The waiter can drink some tea. The melon slices are pretty good these days, or you can drink some tea."

Princess Xinping was generous, and the official who announced the decree followed suit. He had not seen anyone rewarding Nanzhu casually after so many decrees, so he took it back cheerfully, and said a few good words when he returned to repeat the decree.

Since Chu Ran returned to Beijing, she has been keeping a low profile. She was imprisoned in Yunmengze and never complained. Emperor Chu felt a little guilty about her, and rewarded her again within a few days.

It was the first time for Chu Ran to experience the pie falling from the sky. After receiving the gift, he went to Zhanghua Terrace to thank him and flirted with Emperor Chu for a while.Taking advantage of his good mood, he went to the East Palace to meet the prince.

This year, most of the crown prince's illness has been cured. When Chu Ran left, he was copying calligraphy and painting by the window, while the little secretary beside him was grinding.The matter of adding fragrance to the red sleeves is also enviable to look at.

Chu Ran's teeth are sour.After she entered, the little bedroom secretary hurriedly saluted and then retreated, but the prince had a thick skin and calmly asked sister to sit down.He first said: "Marrying from the palace is the etiquette of the princess, sister, don't marry from the princess mansion just for convenience."

"Where did you get married? It's just for Lu Xiang to see. People in the world care about these things. If Lu Xiangruo cared about these things, he wouldn't have..." Chu Ran paused. Changed his words: "At the beginning, I wouldn't insist on not annulling the engagement."

She hesitated to speak, but the prince realized something was wrong, so someone brought a cherry, pushed it in front of Elder Sister, and said in a low voice: "How are you and Lu Xiang, when Lu believed you mentioned you, his words were different from others."

The prince didn't know about the secret channel, and Chu Ran didn't intend to say it, so as not to be laughed at by him, she moved the cherry in front of her, picked a red one and put it in her mouth, frowning and said in distaste: "It's not sweet."

The prince picked one to try, and said strangely: "It's quite sweet."

Chu Ran refused to eat any more, so the prince asked someone to withdraw, brought milk tea, and continued: "Outsiders all say that Lu Xiang is cunning, but in fact she is the most upright person in the court. No one is selfish, Lu Xiang is the most Alright, let's see how impartial she is towards the Lu family, otherwise why do you think His Majesty let her be your chancellor."

Before Lu Shi was Prime Minister, he did a few things with His Majesty, but the reputation was not very good. If you want to know the king's will, how can you not accept it?

He was afraid that Elder Sister would listen to what outsiders said and would feel disgusted with Lu Xiang. At that time, the relationship between the two would be at odds, which would give others a chance to take advantage of it.

After hearing this, Chu Ran didn't explain. She turned her head and saw the little secretary in the corridor outside. She smiled and said, "What's the matter with you and that little secretary? Before the crown princess is decided, there must be no heirs in the East Palace. By then Yu Shishen, you are not good."

The prince smiled warmly, and said: "Sister and Lu Xiang have a deep relationship, and then look at the princess for me."

After Chu Ran got married, all the officials must have their eyes on the East Palace, and she would not force the prince, he knew everything well.

The prince talked about the affairs in the court: "The young master of the Song Dynasty is in charge. The two countries used to be in dire straits, but now they are not connected. I think the trade between the two countries will help the border economy. I have drafted a memorial and submitted it. I don't know what your majesty thinks."

Chu Ran didn't know this. The last impression she had in the dream was that King Heng was established as the heir apparent and had a bad relationship with Song. After thinking about it, she might as well do business with Song first, so as to put an end to King Heng's thoughts.

She agreed: "Yes, what is Lu Xiang's attitude?"

"I haven't explained it to her yet, why don't you go and ask, sister." The prince smiled, waiting for Chu Ran to refuse, thinking about the words in his mind.

Chu Ran didn't know what he was thinking, so he nodded and responded, "Okay."

The prince swallowed the words when he got to his lips, and looked at Sister A strangely, and finally said a few words to reassure her without opening her mouth.

Chu Ran then asked about the actor, the prince expected that she would ask, and explained: "It's just an actor, and let the queen have a headache. When she trips you, you should think that Lu Xiang will not agree easily."

"Why is it Lu Xiang again?" Chu Ran was a little confused by what he said, and Lu Xiang's explanation was also unclear. Is the prince's intention still happy to see it come true?

Seeing that she was puzzled, the crown prince remembered Lu Xiang's order and dared not say any more, so he said: "It's nothing serious, just a few actors, the queen is in a hurry, it has nothing to do with me, it's getting late, sister, let's go back to the house to rest."

He didn't dare to say more, promised Lu Xiang not to say too many disturbing things with Ajie, got up and sent him out of the East Palace.

After Chu Ran walked for a while, he met Heng Wang who came out of Zhang Huatai.I haven't seen him for a few months, but King Heng has become more humble. He looks like a queen, with a good skin, a peachy face, and a romantic appearance.

He came to say hello first, and the waiter behind him held flowers.July is the time when all kinds of flowers are in full bloom, not to mention peonies and peonies, but the waiter is holding hibiscus flowers and a few pots of the most beautiful peonies.

"Where are you going in Xinping, the peonies are blooming well, do you want to bring some back home?" Heng Wang smiled softly, without the arrogance of the past.

Chu Ran almost regarded him as a gentle gentleman, with an impeccable look and demeanor, her face was full of smiles, she shook her head and said, "I don't like these, where are you sending Brother Heng Wang?"

"Send it to Auntie, she has always loved peonies." Heng Wang's voice was clear and clear, and Chu Ran's body was pimples, she said a few words in a hurry, and left.

Is Heng Wang's posture pretending to be himself?She kept walking to the outside of the palace, and when she was about to leave at the gate of the palace, she met Lu Shi who had entered the palace, and the two met face to face.

The people in the palace were talking a lot, Lu Shi's face remained the same, and he saluted first, Chu Ran said: "Lu Xiang has entered the palace beforehand, I will go back to the mansion first."

Lu Shi didn't talk too much. He nodded slightly and left. The two of them didn't talk much.

The story of the meeting at the palace gate spread to the central palace, and the queen was skeptical when she heard it, and said to Ling Yi who was pruning the flower branches: "You have been in Yunmengze for more than a month, can you see the two meeting?"

Ling Yi paused, thought about it for a while, and then said: "The two met once, because of my cousin's business, apart from that, the two of them gave each other some food."

"No more?" The queen didn't believe it, the two of them were getting married soon, even if the relationship was not good, they still had to put on a show.

Ling Yi shook his head, and said to himself: "No, my sister went to ask Lu Xiang to release him, but Lu Xiang refused directly. If I can't ask for it, so does she."

The queen believed it, and in Lu Xiang's heart, power was the most important thing, and she persuaded: "Since the two of them are married, you should settle down. There are so many good gentlemen in the city of Yingdu, no matter how bad they are, there are still many who have entered the court as officials." Girl, move your eyes away and don't stare at this person."

"Aniang didn't say that before. You said that Lu Xiang is rare, and if I like it, I will try it, but now it has changed again." Ling Yi blushed with anger, and put the scissors on the table with a bang, Turn around and leave the palace.

As soon as she left in anger, the queen was so angry that her chest heaved, pointing at Ling Yi's back, she couldn't say a word.On weekdays, she spoiled her lawlessly, leaving as soon as she said, it was lawless.

Lu Xiang is a person who abides by the rules. Even if he doesn't intend to, he will marry according to the marriage contract.She already understood what Lu Xiang was thinking, and it would be useless for Ling Yi to pester her any longer.

She angrily ordered her servants to chase the princess over, and she was not allowed to leave the palace without permission, and she was not allowed to leave the middle palace without permission.

After giving an order, Lingyi ran out of the central palace early and went to Zhang Huatai to cry to Emperor Chu. Her eyes were red, and when she entered, she saw Lu Xiang talking with His Majesty in the corridor.

Looking at the person she admired in her heart, she felt sour for no reason, walked over to call daddy, and turned her face away.

Emperor Chu didn't care about her, and still talked about the proton with Lu Xiang, saying: "I see that a few of them are only ** years old, and they are sent to the palace to accompany the prince to read."

Having the title of companion reading is equivalent to pushing these people to the two little princes.Lu Shi pretended not to know what Emperor Chu meant, and leaned over to agree, saying, "Your Majesty is wise."

After saying a few more details, Lu Shi found an opportunity to retreat, and when he left, he heard Lingyi crying.

She is used to acting like a spoiled child, so she eats too much sweets.Chu Ran's temperament is hard, she would rather suffer some hardships, but she can't do such a childlike posture.Thinking of the quick glance outside the palace, she wondered what happened to her.

There are other important matters in the government office, so let's suppress this matter first and discuss it after returning to the mansion.

****

After returning home, Chu Ran received a pair of earrings, small jade gourds, delicate and small.The maids felt novelty when they saw it. They had been with Princess Xinping for many years, and they often saw the memorials in the hall. This was the first time they saw such a small thing.

They were amazed, but Chu Ran was annoyed, remembering that the clothes made for Lu Xiang had only been stitched a few times, and they were placed on the couch, and she had forgotten them these days.When I thought about it, I felt pain in my fingers again, and I pricked it several times.

These days, she put aside the government affairs and was bored in the mansion, and she didn't feel bored. When she went back to hold the clothes to embroider, Xinyang ran out briskly, and took the order from the prince, and the gates of the palaces were unobstructed.

Xinyang was dressed plainly, in a blue gauze dress, with three or two hairpins in her hair, and the diamond hairpin was missing. She trotted into the house, and first ate a few kumquat candies with the box in her arms.

Her mouth was sour, she squinted her eyes and said happily, "I like this taste."

Chu Ran hugged the satin and watched her eat. Seeing that she had finished eating a box of candy, she said, "I still have some fine sugar. You can take some with you when you leave. Besides, if you want rose dew, I'll bring you a bottle too?"

They were all sent by Lu Xiang, and all the chefs were sent to the Princess Mansion. The first thing to make was kumquat candy, Chu Ran only ate one, and Xin Yang ate the rest.

When she was full, she said: "Sister, have you ever seen King Heng?"

Chu Ran nodded.

Xinyang took the maid's handkerchief, wiped his mouth, and said, "Ah Ruan said that King Heng is possessed by a clay bodhisattva, he is so soft."

After hearing the interesting words, Chu Ran only thought that Concubine Ming was very interesting. She put her clothes on the couch, walked over, and said, "I saw it too, but she changed her temper all of a sudden. The prince never told me, I don't know why."

Xinyang nodded fiercely, and echoed: "He actually smiled at me today, Sister, do you think you are really possessed by a ghost?" Heng Wang was very fierce to her, and he had never laughed since he was a child. Today she actually laughed and asked her if she wanted flowers, which made her run away in a hurry.

If something goes wrong, it will be a demon.

Chu Ran knew that she was sent by Concubine Ming to test her out. King Heng's change was indeed a bit strange. His appearance was like in a dream. After the death of the crown prince, he pretended to be filial in front of His Majesty.

The prince is still alive and well, what kind of monster is he going to be.

Xinyang was tired from eating, so he asked someone to make a pot of honey tea, lying on the table and whispering to Chu Ran: "Ah Ruan said, Hengwang has a lot of weirdness, let the prince be careful, and Lingyi was detained by the queen." I didn’t give it away in the middle palace, I saw it with my own eyes, and no one else knew about it.”

Chu Ran didn't know the Queen's strategy, what did Guan Lingyi do to prevent her from getting close to Lu Xiang?When did she think so well, the weasel gave the chicken New Year's greetings, uneasy and kind.

The maid put the fine sugar in a box, and the flower dew in a glass bottle. After Xinyang passed the word, she left happily with food, saying that she would come back in a few days.

For the sake of eating.Chu Ran waved to her, wondering why the prince didn't tell her.

The maid asked her if she wanted lunch, counting the time, but Chu Ran was not in the mood to use it, so she waved her hand to indicate that she didn't need it.I couldn't figure it out in my mind, so I stopped thinking about it and called the embroiderer to embroider clothes together.

There is the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, two days ago, the Prime Minister's Mansion brought gifts, and there were countless things to play and eat.The chef of the Xiangfu was given to the Princess Mansion, and there are still many food tricks made.

Chu Ran is used to it, and people reward the person who gave the gift from the Xiangfu, and all the oranges made of gold are given away, and the people from the Xiangfu dare not accept it.Even if they were given some courage, they didn't dare to take it too seriously, so they left the princess mansion with a smile.

The prime minister clearly defined rewards and punishments, restrained his subordinates, and they still received rewards after returning to the mansion. Although they were not as rich as those in the princess mansion, they felt comfortable in their hearts.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, the Ministry of Ritual arranged the two people's seats together and sat on the same table.

In another month, the two will get married, and the arrangement by the Ministry of Rites is also to make them get closer.After the banquet, Chu Ran drank a few glasses of wine, and Ling Yi next to him was depressed and did not dare to look at the two of them.

The concubine did not attend today, so the queen came alone. She attended in full dress, luxurious and graceful, and chatted with the lady next to her.

Lu Shi and Chu Ran occasionally spoke a few words, and Emperor Chu comforted the protons, not caring about anything else.Huo Lao pretended to be sick and did not attend, for fear that His Majesty would mention the absurd things about his eldest grandson; Heng Wang said that Yan Yan was more handsome than before.

The prince could not drink alcohol, so he toasted Lu Shi with tea instead of wine.Lu Shi smiled faintly and returned with wine.

When the banquet was over, it was still a group of harmony and music.His Majesty didn't care about this, and left the banquet early to go to the harem. The queen turned pale with anger, and suppressed her anger.

Chu Ran was drunk, stopped after taking two steps, turned to look at Lu Shi, waved to her, and wanted to go back together.

Lu Shi didn't refuse, the corners of his lips were slightly curved, and a three-point smile stained the center of his brows, he stretched out his arms to embrace her, and went out of the palace together.

Ling Yi, who was half a step behind, looked pale and pale, stomped his feet, resentful and helpless.Seeing this, the prince walked up to her side, with gloomy eyes, and said in a low voice: "Lingyi, don't force it. If you want to blame it, blame the queen for not making an engagement for you first."

"The elder brother of the prince also bullied me. Look at where the relationship between the two of them came from. If there is emotion, I will also bully me."
