The eldest princess and Li [rebirth]
Chapter 36 Marriage
After Lu Shi left in a hurry that night, he didn't go to the princess mansion for a few days, and Chu Ran was busy with the marriage of the princess mansion, so he never went to the prime minister's mansion.
Concubine Empress Xian suggested that Princess Xinping get married from the palace. After all, she was the eldest son. If she did not do well, the imperial censors and civil officials would discuss it. Emperor Chu didn't pay much attention, and ordered people to do it. talent.
After Chu Ran was invited into the palace, he really didn't see Lu Shi. After all, there were still three days left, so he didn't see Lu Shi.
Life in the palace was boring, Xinyang would come over from time to time, bringing snacks and fruits from Concubine Ming, sitting for half a day.
One day, when Xinyang did not come, Chu Ran felt strange and ordered someone to look for it. Finally, the palace servants saw Lu Xiang stopping Xinyang outside Zhang Huatai.
For some reason, Xin Yang's face was pale when he left, as if being bullied by Lu Xiang, and he didn't see her that day.
Chu Ran didn't know what happened, so she took some silver and blocked the palace man's mouth, and asked when Xinyang came over.
Xinyang would go to Concubine Ming when he had troubles. Recently, Emperor Chu loved to go to Lin Cairen's place, and Concubine Ming rarely stepped into the gate of the palace, which made Xinyang cheaper.
Outside Ben puffed up his cheeks, and couldn't help crying when he saw Concubine Ming.Concubine Ming frowned, ordered the palace servants to leave, and beckoned her to come over.
Xinyang walked over weeping, told all the things in one brain, and finally accused Lu Xiang: "Lu Xiang is very fierce, even more fierce than Heng Wang."
After complaining, she buried herself in Concubine Ming's arms and cried until she was out of breath.
Concubine Ming patted her on the back as a consolation. Prime Minister Lu is a man known throughout the court, and he will definitely not make things difficult for Xinyang because of trivial matters. She thought about it for a while, lowered her head and said to Xinyang: "What did you give Princess Xinping?" ?”
Xinyang sniffed, raised his head from her arms, his eyes were red from crying: "That's, those books you gave me, the palaces didn't go to the princess mansion, probably the queen didn't order it, so I gave it to sister If I go, Lu Xiang will kill me and tell me not to send things to Sister, and keep the good things for myself, and the righteous words she said are so fierce."
Concubine Ming supported her forehead, she was also helpless for Xinyang's foolish behavior, Lu Shi Gao Fengjiyue, how could he not be annoyed when he saw a book that taught women how to be happy.
There are many female officials in the court, but Lu Shi is the only high-ranking official, which shows that she is not an ordinary person.
Then I thought about it, why didn't the Shang Palaces go to the Princess Mansion?She couldn't figure it out by herself, the queen should not care about these trivial matters, there is no need to stop her.
Xinyang was already afraid of Lu Shi, and he would not dare to see her on weekdays, but now that she is fierce, he is afraid that after Xinping gets married, he will not dare to go to the Prime Minister's mansion in the future.
She lightly touched Xinyang's soft nape, and comforted her, "Apologize to Prime Minister Lu, okay?"
Xinyang didn't think about shaking his head, thinking of Lu Xiang's cold appearance, he felt frightened, shaking his head like a child's rattle: "No, no, I'll let sister go."
"Fool, if you tell Princess Xinping about this, Prime Minister Lu will not only hurt you." Concubine Ming was amused, and Prime Minister Lu solved it quietly. He wanted to hide this from Princess Xinping, and looking for her would only make Lu Xiang even more disgusted.
Xinyang was speechless, her little hands tightly grasped Ah Ruan's wrist, her brows were deeply frowned, and she was still crying, but she didn't understand what she did wrong. Why do you want to kill her, you can't tell my elder sister.
So sad.She cried for a while, and Concubine Ming asked someone to make her some marzipan cheese, coaxed her to eat it, and slept with her for half an hour.
Xinyang did something wrong, which made Lu Xiang unhappy, and Concubine Ming struggled to find a way to save her.After Xinyang left the palace, she couldn't protect her. Lu Xiang thought of his friendship with Princess Xinping, so he would reach out to protect her.
Annoying her will not do Xinyang any good.
She slept with Xinyang in her arms for a day, and when she woke up the next morning, Xinyang's eyes were still a little red, she had no choice but to ask someone to fetch medicine to apply.
For breakfast, I made Xinyang's favorite food. The silver noodles under the pheasant soup was half a bowl, not too much. After eating, I ate a few crystal dumplings.
After Xinyang was fed by Concubine Ming, she went to find Chu Ran.Yesterday has not passed, I feel uncomfortable in my heart, and I want to see him.
Concubine Ming held her back, not letting her go, and said: "Go to the Prime Minister's residence and give Prime Minister Lu a gift for me."
Upon hearing Lu Xiang, Xinyang's face turned pale, and he grabbed Concubine Ming's hand, muttering: "Ah Ruan, let the servant go?"
"If I let the servant go, the queen will know, and everyone in the palace will know, and I will get into trouble." Concubine Ming coaxed me gently. With his head down, Prime Minister Lu is a majestic person, with a cold face, even the bold courtiers dare not answer casually. It is conceivable how frightened Xinyang was.
It's easy to coax Xinyang to be timid. Hearing that Concubine Ming is in danger, she will go if she doesn't want to. She nodded her head hard: "Then I'll go, what should I say?"
"Your Highness doesn't need to say anything, just say that I gave it to you." Concubine Ming embraced Xinyang, and lightly touched the corner of her lips.Princess Xinping already knew about the matter between her and Xinyang, and Lu Xiang couldn't hide it from her. Maybe Lu Xiang had already known about her relationship with Xinyang.
The palace man brought a palm-sized box, which was so ordinary that he didn't care if he looked at it.
Xinyang took it over, flipped it twice in his hand, and stretched out his hand to open it. Concubine Ming pressed her hand: "Don't look at it, don't look at it along the way."
Concubine Ming never treated Xinyang harshly, most of the time she coaxed her whenever she could, but her tone today was different from the past.Xinyang understood, touched her wrist, carefully put the box into her sleeve pocket, and left the palace with the token.
****
Lu Xiang got a few days off to take care of the house. He discussed with his mother the rules for the day of welcoming the bride. Suddenly, he heard the announcement from the doorman, so there was no need to delay. After talking with his mother, he went to the flower hall to meet the guests.
Xinyang was very nervous when she stepped into the prime minister's mansion. She drank tea, and Axiu put flower candies for her, but she didn't see her take it to eat. Her small eyes kept aiming at the door, and when she saw a blue figure, she was scared. Heart skipped a beat.
Seeing her terrified look, Axiu couldn't tell what happened for a while, so she waved away the palace servants waiting by the door.
After Lu Shi came in, he saluted first, with a humble attitude. Compared with yesterday, he was much gentler. Xin Yang felt a little less timid in his heart. He took out the box in his sleeve pocket, and stuffed it directly into her hand regardless of whether Lu Xiang took it or not. .
"This is Concubine Ming asking me to hand it over to Prime Minister." She looked down at her feet, not daring to look at Lu Xiang's expression.
There was an extra box in Lu Shi's hand, and he didn't know what Concubine Ming meant, so he thought for a while and said, "Please tell Concubine Ming, Your Highness, to thank her for her kindness."
Her expression was gentle, so Xinyang dared to look up at her, rolled his dark eyes, lowered his head again, and said in a low voice: "If there is nothing wrong, I will go back to the palace first."
"Wait a minute, Your Highness." Lu Shi called her, raised his jaw towards Axiu, and signaled her to return the gift.
Concubine Ming asked Xinyang to come over quietly, probably not wanting others to know, so the gift should be simple.Knowing what the prime minister was thinking, Ah Xiu leaned over and retreated, and went to the warehouse to pick out a red coral bracelet.
Xinyang likes to eat, so Axiu asks someone to prepare some.The prime minister's mansion always keeps flowers and candies, just in case Princess Xinping comes over, so it is also convenient.
After the things were loaded into the carriage, Xin Yang left the Prime Minister's Mansion holding the things with the bracelets in his hands, and went to see Concubine Ming after returning to the palace.
After her figure disappeared, Lu Shi opened the box, and there were only a pair of small golden bells inside.
She stared silently, what did Concubine Ming mean?
Yesterday, I only mentioned something to Xinyang, and I didn't say anything harshly, but she was so frightened that she was about to cry. I wanted Chu Ran to persuade her, so as not to hurt the sisterhood because of her.
It's just that before she made a move, Concubine Ming came to apologize on behalf of Xinyang, but this kind of gift is a bit strange.
What can the little golden bell do?
****
Concubine Ming leaned on the couch, staring at the golden silk ruyi pattern on the curtain, listening to the voice, a person crawled in from the window, and then Xinyang trotted over, and brought the bracelet in front of her like offering a treasure.
"Look, Ah Ruan, the pattern inside is really pretty, it looks like blood jade." Xin Yangqi was overjoyed, staring at the bracelet, and put Ming Concubine Tao's wrist on it.
Concubine Ming refused, instead she pushed it into her hand, saying: "You just take it as a gift from Prime Minister Lu, and wear it generously, so you don't need to be afraid."
What Ah Ruan said is always right, Xinyang nodded happily, thinking of the box he took early in the morning, he said strangely: "Ah Ruan, what treasure did you use to exchange this?"
"I didn't exchange my treasure." Concubine Ming smiled deeply, her eyes sparkling like water.
It's just a pair of little golden bells, Lu is older than Princess Xinping, so he should know the usefulness of these little bells.
Xinyang played with the bracelet, stayed in the hall for a while, and then went to look for Chu Ran. He hadn't seen her yesterday, so he should explain something today.
After she left, Chu Ran sent someone to get the fruit first, and then asked about the affairs of Zhang Huatai.Xinyang felt guilty, and didn't dare to say anything that annoyed Lu Shi, he hesitated for a long time, took the grapes to eat, and casually dealt with it.
She didn't want to talk about it, and Chu Ran couldn't force it. Only when she saw Lu Shi could she ask. The two of them didn't talk on weekdays, and I don't know why.
****
The queen suffered from a headache again, and Ling Yi stayed in front of the couch, not daring to move a step, so someone gave Chu Ran a gift of makeup, so she couldn't come.
The queen suffered from headaches, and she had it in the early years, and sometimes she would suffer from it. I don't know if it's true or not. Emperor Chu never cared.
In the palace, Concubine Xian is the second. She takes the responsibility of Chu Ran's big marriage and dare not slack off.Princess Xinping doesn't care about what she did wrong, she is afraid that the queen will criticize her after she recovers.
After hearing the news that Lingyi would not come, Xinyang applauded and ate half a bowl of rice for dinner.Staying in Chu Ran's palace at night, the two shared a couch, but Chu Ran did not refuse.
Around Haishi, news came from Zhanghua Palace, saying that His Majesty went to Lin Cairen's place. Xinyang rolled his eyes and ran away with the palace servants. He left a message and will come at five o'clock tomorrow.
Chu Guo welcomed the bride at dusk, and it was indeed a little early for her to come over at five o'clock.
Xinyang went to accompany Concubine Ming, Chu Ran was alone in the palace, and the prince couldn't come over, so someone sent a box of honey snacks, which contained rare candied lychees.Xinyang ran fast and did not eat these tributes, but the frozen fruits were not as good as the fresh ones.
When it was near Haishi, the palace servants sent something, quietly, a jar of green plum wine.
As a childhood sweetheart, she and Lu Shi are not the same.
The last gift was green plum wine, which matched the word, Chu Ran fell asleep after drinking two cups.Falling asleep after drinking is even sweeter.
As soon as Xinyang came over, she said it was five o'clock, and the sky was already bright. She looked at Chu Ran apologetically, and said quietly: "Sister, in the future, when Lu Xiang is fierce to you, you must go back fiercely. I can't bear it." Come on, she's so fierce."
Even worse than Brother Hengwang, Xinyang thought, but dared not say it.
Chu Ran forgot to ask what happened in front of Zhang Huatai two days ago. She wanted to ask, but the voice of Concubine Xian came from outside. She brought Shang Gong to put on makeup for her, and Xin Yang was pushed aside.
I went to Fengxian Hall yesterday to celebrate incense, so I don't need to go there again today.
Before dressing up, she had to take a bath. Chu Ran didn't like being surrounded by so many people, so she went to take a bath in a hurry. After she came out, there were several layers of dresses, and she let the palace servants fiddle with them.When she finished putting on her little gown, the palace man brought over a red long drawstring with Ruyi embroidered on it and crocheted with gold thread. She felt strange, and when she wanted to refuse, Concubine Xian tied it up for her.
It was tied close to her body, she felt uncomfortable, so she wanted to take it off, Concubine Xian slapped her hand away: "This is the rule, logically, the queen will tie it for you first, if she is not here, I will take it for her, don't blame you."
Chu Ran was taken aback by the words, and seeing that the wishful knot was tied, she asked strangely, "When can I pick it off?"
"Ask Prime Minister Lu." Concubine Xian said.
Chu Ran: "..." This rule is not good, after I go to the prime minister's mansion, I just pick it myself.
After dressing up, Concubine Ming came over surrounded by palace people. There were many people in the hall, especially Concubine Xian was still there. She smiled and gave Chu Ran a gold silk bracelet, which was naturally not comparable to the bracelet on Xinyang's hand.
Xinyang was eating snacks at the side without raising his head, Ah Ruan said he couldn't look at her, so he had to lower his head to eat.
The prince also came early, seeing Xinyang eating, he patted her on the head, and said strangely: "How can I know how to eat, and you will be here in two months."
Xin Yang pouted, and said: "Brother Prince, don't worry, I am different from Elder Sister." She is a descendant, and the regulations are different. When she arrives, there will be no such excitement.
The prince understood what she meant, patted her on the head, and said in a low voice: "The dowry from the Zhou family is not bad. When you get married, ask your elder sister for some dowry." Before finishing speaking, he lowered his voice and said : "The Xiangfu has a lot of good things, sister is not stingy."
When mentioning Xiangfu, Xinyang felt uncomfortable, with fruit in his mouth, shaking his head in response.
The prince smiled, staring at Chu Ran from a distance, with the corners of his lips curled, Ah Nan came and reminded him: "Your Highness, do you want to drink medicine? If you don't drink it, you will be cold."
"Say a few words with Sister Gu, you go to the side hall and wait." The prince waved at her and strode towards Chu Ran.
In September, it was neither hot nor cold, and the temperature was just right, but Chu Ran felt hot for no reason. The dress was tied up layer by layer, and she couldn't move freely. She was holding a fan in her hand. When she saw the prince, she crooked On the head, the jewels and jade on the gold crown collided, making a crisp sound.
The prince's gift has long been included in the dowry, and the siblings depend on each other for life, but if there is something good, Chu Ran will bring it to him first.Now, he gave her all the good ones as a dowry.
Although Lu Xiang is a woman with a delicate mind, she treats Chu Ran with a different heart and values her very much.He reached out to touch Chu Ran's neck crown, and said in a low voice: "Sister, if you have any grievances, remember to tell me. But if you bully Lu Xiang, don't tell me when you come back."
He was half-smiling, he looked solemn today, wearing a ceremonial crown on his head, the hem of the black robe was woven with gold thread, and on his waist was the prince's unique dragon-patterned jade, the already handsome man looked even more heroic today, When teasing Chu Ran, there was a three-point smile on his face.
Chu Ran felt hot, so he didn't want to talk to him. He looked at the young man quietly. Today is not the time to talk, so he said: "It's your turn to choose the princess."
The prince didn't answer, instead he poked her face with thick makeup, and said: "When you see Prime Minister Lu, wash your face first, so as not to frighten her."
He spoke so loudly that everyone laughed.
Chu Ran was very happy to see Ling Yi today. After a while, King Heng and his wife came over, with a gift, and said a few words of congratulations. Concubine Heng went to the central palace to look after the queen.
When the time came, Chu Ran naturally went to Zhang Huatai to bid farewell to Emperor Chu. The queen was not there, and he was the only one in the high position.
When the Emperor Chu married his daughter for the first time, his heart was a little fluctuated, and somehow he thought of the former queen. When he was moved, he said a few more words, which seemed to be a bit late.
After leaving the Emperor Chu, the chariot walked along the red palace wall, and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion after leaving the palace.
When Lu Shi greeted her, his brows and eyes were bent, and his expression was much more relaxed than usual.Others didn't dare to be presumptuous in the prime minister's mansion. After the salute, the people in the new house walked cleanly.
It was already dark outside, Chu Ran took down the fan, looked around and saw that there were no guests, and said, "It's so hot, can you take a rest?"
When Axiu heard this, she secretly smiled, and took a cup of wine.
The Hejin wine was naturally prepared by the Xiangfu. Chu Ran knew it was the green plum wine she drank last night after smelling it. She passed Lu Shi's arm and raised her head to drink it.
Lu Shi's expression remained the same. She glanced at it and remembered the big wedding scene in her dream. She felt that it was the same as now, she was still so cold.
She put down the wine, and Lu Shi reached out to hold her hand. The maid smiled, and when Lu Xiang had something to say, they all backed out.
Chu Ran was used to being led by her, so she didn't care at all, let go of the fan, and glanced around the room, it was quite different from what she had come here a few days ago.
Axiu led the people out, and Mrs. Lu asked someone to make Xiqian.Huanhuanxixi, there is such a custom in the city of Yingdu, marrying a wife and daughter, making some wedding money, with Bingdilian engraved on the face.
The guests outside were greeted by Marquis Runan, outsiders all said that the brothers and sisters of the Lu family were at odds, seeing him in the Lu residence, those rumors were self-defeating.
The new house was quiet, and Lu Shi had no intention of going out to greet the guests. Seeing Chu Ran's face slumped tightly, she glanced at her waist and said, "Your Highness, go take a bath?"
Chu Ran nodded as if relieved, walked to the dressing table and removed the golden crown, the waterfall-like blue hair slanted down, and Lu Shi, who was sitting on the couch, moved his eyes and remained silent.
The marriage of the two is different from others, they are both sober.Lu Shi didn't show up outside, let alone being drunk.
Chu Ran took off her bun and was about to take a bath. When she reached the door, she was pushed back by the palace servants, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, the knot of one heart."
She was startled, and then remembered what Concubine Xian said, turned around and glanced at Lu Shi, and settled it by herself.After thinking about it, he was about to leave, but the palace guards stopped him.
The palace people are all sent by the concubine Xian, staring at the newcomer, just as if the relationship between the two is not good enough, and they have to remind them of everything.
Chu Ran suddenly felt a headache, with a slightly annoyed face, and walked back without mentioning it, just said: "You go take a bath first."
Lu Shi couldn't be fooled, she walked over and came back again, her expression was wrong.She didn't ask, so she had no choice but to take a bath first. After leaving the room, she called the palace servant just now and asked them carefully.
There was a lot of noise outside, and the sound came over, so Lu Shi asked someone to go ahead and have a look, as long as there was nothing wrong.
She waited in the corridor for a while, when the maid came over in a hurry, saying that it was all right, so she went to take a bath.
Chu Ran in the room wanted to pick off the so-called sympathetic knot by herself, but as soon as Lu Shi went out, the palace servant assigned by Concubine Xian came in, feeling like staring at her.
She glared, and sat still on the couch.
After waiting for a long time, I saw Lu Shi come back. She took off her wedding dress and walked slowly in blue clothes, her expression was much gentler.
Chu Ran felt that he couldn't hide it, or Lu Shi himself knew it, so he waved his hand to make the palace servants retreat.The palace man stood where he was, looking at Lu Xiang nervously.
Lu Shi had a clear mind and nodded to signal her to back down. Chu Ran looked up at her, his eyes fluttered for a few moments, and he stood up decisively to take a bath.
Lu Shi directly stretched out his arms around her waist, pulled her into his eyes, and said with a low smile, "Where is your Highness going?"
"Bath." Chu Ran was hugged by her, the concentric knot at the waist was almost on fire, his chin touched the corner of Lu Shi's lips, his skin was numb, and he said impatiently, "Untie the concentric knot."
The door of the new house was open, and the palace servants in the corridor shrank their necks when they heard the princess's words, not daring to speak.
Lu Shi looked at her with indifferent eyes: "How to solve it?"
Chu Ran was stunned for a moment, but this person didn't know where the concentric knot was. She was ashamed to speak, looked at the door, and said, "Close the door first."
Lu Shi turned around and glanced coldly at the maidservant standing at the door. Her eyes were majestic and could not be disobeyed. The maidservant did not dare to raise her head and closed the door with her hand.
There were only two people in the room, and Chu Ran didn't believe what she said just now. Could it be that no one told her about these rules?
She was ignorant because she had never seen it in her dream, and Lu Shi was the same. In the previous life, the marriage was rushed, and Chu Ran even married from the princess's mansion. Most of these rules were not followed.
It's not easy to stand all night, Chu Ran held back Lu Shi's hand shyly, and touched her fingers with her fingers, almost entangled.
Chu Ran took her hand to untie the concentric knot on her waist, and pursed the corners of her lips. If she didn't untie it, she couldn't take a bath.
She was careful, her wrists were limp, not as strong as she could hold a sword before, and her hand hooked Lu Shi's and fell to her waist.Lu Shi stared at the rouge on the corner of her lips, which was as bright as a red flower.
In the previous life, Chu Ran was as gorgeous as before, and she also looked like this, but she didn't like to talk, and she didn't take the initiative to speak from the beginning to the end.Both of them had dull temperaments, and the new house was so lifeless that the maid did not dare to speak, and hurriedly left after drinking the Hebei wine.
The same is true after going to bed.
Lu Shi looked at the ordinary-looking person, and a trance suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. She was stunned for a moment, and the scenes of the two worlds blended in front of her eyes, and her heart suddenly ached, and she hardly dared to look into Chu Ran's eyes.
Taking a deep breath, trying to suppress the emotions in her heart, her hands were soft and soft, she followed Chu Ran's direction to look, the outer robe blocked it, and after touching for a long time, she only touched through the clothes.
The etiquette that was not there in the previous life, I never thought that it would be completed in this life. Untie the outside and then untie the inside to complete the etiquette.
One heart, one heart, I hope that Chu Ran will be of one heart and one mind with her in this life.
The dress is divided into several layers, which is really in the way.She untied her complicated dress with the other hand, and Chu Ran didn't speak. After untiing one, her head hung lower: "It seems that there is another one."
That was the one that caused her the most headache, it was itchy and uncomfortable against the skin.
The dress was divided into several layers. After taking off the outer dress, there was a red jacket inside, and the neckline was still crocheted with gold thread. Chu Ran felt uncomfortable being stared at, so she raised her hand and took off one by one.
She took off very quickly, and felt a lot more relaxed. The peach-colored gauze was close to her skin, and the white skin reflected the peach blossoms, which made people's hearts move.
The two stood facing each other, and the dresses they had taken off were placed on the couch. Chu Ran simply thought that nothing would happen if the concentric knot was untied. In the dream, the two of them were just sleeping together.Seeing Lu Shi not moving, she wanted to urge her: "What's wrong with you?"
When she raised her head, Lu Shi stretched out his hand to wrap around her waist, ignoring the concentric knot, pressed against the corner of Chu Ran's lips, and said in a low voice, "Are you in a hurry to take a bath?"
Lu Shi's body was warm, full of water vapor after bathing, Chu Ran blinked, and before he could think about it, his eyes were covered, and his waist tightened, "Don't you want to untie the knot of sympathy?"
"You need to lie down to understand." Lu Shi's voice was calm, the same as in the past, but Chu Ran's ears felt hot when he heard it.She was busy thinking about refusing, and her back was soft.
She is not a weak woman, how can she be bullied so casually, she just wants to push Lu Shi away with her hand.Lu Shi's hand fell on his waist, and his voice was soft: "Don't move."
She is untying the sympathy knot.
Chu Ran believed it, and lay quietly waiting for her to untie it, clenched her fingertips tightly, and somehow a phantom flashed in front of her eyes, and suddenly there was a sweet taste in her mouth, and when she touched it with the tip of her tongue, it was rose flower candy.
Lu Yi offered candy, and she bit it.
There were only two people in the room, Chu Ran didn't think much about it, just like an ignorant child.Lu Shi stared at her intently, and the scene of the wedding night in her previous life flooded into her mind. She suppressed her emotions and reached out to reach for the concentric knot.
The fingertips first slid across the fabric and landed on Ningxue's skin, Chu Ran trembled slightly, Lu Shi's hands were very cold, she almost wanted to curl herself up, the sugar in her mouth was slowly melting.
She endured it and did not move.
Chu Ran is so obedient and so quiet that he believed in Concubine Xian's words, and only Lu Shi could untie the concentric knot.
Lu Shi understood that Chu Ran would not be so obedient once the sympathy knot was untied, and she frowned slightly.Chu Ran was resting on the pillow, her head full of blue hair scattered on the red silk, and the candle was brightly lit, reflecting her pink skin. Lu Shi reached out and untied the golden hook on top of her head, and the red veil fell down instantly.
Chu Ran felt something was wrong, the light turned red, she looked at Lu Shi, but Lu Shi leaned over, her head buzzed, and she felt a little flustered.
The corners of the lips touched, with a different sweetness, Chu Ran pushed twice, and said angrily: "You lied to me."
Lu Shi remained silent, stroking her frowning brows with his fingertips, only a single shirt was left on his body, and the neckline was half-open, revealing a piece of white and greasy skin inside. After watching for a while, the color of his eyes changed, "Your Highness, do you want to regret it?"
"No, no, you untie the sympathetic knot and let me get up." Chu Ran staggered Lu Shi's cold gaze, turned his head away from her, the small world was full of red eyes, and the candy in his mouth was finished.
Lu Shi looked at her and said lightly, "Do you want flower candy?"
"Don't eat." Chu Ran refused angrily. If she eats candy, she will be bullied. Candy is not tasty.Her heart was pounding, she touched the concentric knot around her waist, and felt even more annoyed: "You untie it first."
Her face was flushed, and she was so anxious that her body became hot. What kind of rules is this? She gritted her teeth and said, "I will solve it myself."
Lu Shi said, "It's against the rules."
"Then you understand, you understand one, and you don't understand the other, you deliberately teased me." Chu Ran took a few breaths, and Lu Yi changed, which was very different from the dream.
Lu Shi touched her hand, the palm was sweating, she leaned over to look at her: "What are you afraid of?"
"There are so many things I'm afraid of. It's better for Lu Xiang to untie the sympathy knot." Chu Ran hooked her hand to untie the sympathy knot. If he had known that she would not tie the knot, he would cause trouble for himself.
Lu Shi didn't force her, and stretched out his hand to untie the concentric knot, his cold hands didn't even touch the skin beside him.After untying it, Chu Ran got up to take a bath, and most of the guests outside had dispersed.
Mrs. Lu asked someone to come and see, and she did not forget to send some chicken noodle soup.The chicken soup was boiled for several hours, and when it was brought into the house, it was steaming and delicious.
After Chu Ran came out of the bath, she ate half a bowl and turned her head to look inside the house. Lu Shi leaned on the pillow, closed his eyes and thought, not knowing what he was thinking.
After using the noodles, the maid went in to clean up, and retreated after a while.She saw the purse under the pillow, and secretly picked it up. There was rose candy in it, and that's where the candy was from just now.
She took out one and put it in her mouth. It was sweet. Before she could bite, Lu Shi raised her eyes and looked at her. Her hands trembled in fright, and she handed out the purse: "Eat, eat candy?"
With obscurity in Lu Shi's eyes, he stared at her white wrist and remained silent for a while.
She seemed unhappy, Chu Ran took out a candy from it and put it near her mouth: "Your candy, you can eat it."
Lu Shi was cold, similar to the time of disaster relief. Chu Ran couldn't decide what she was thinking, so he crunched the candy in his mouth, dawdled twice, sat beside her, and whispered, "Are you angry just now?"
"No." Lu Shi took the purse and didn't eat it. Instead, he put it back in its original place and glanced at the bright red candle.
She said again: "I'm going to see my mother tomorrow morning, go to bed early."
Lu Shi suddenly took the sugar away, Chu Ran was stunned for a moment, her hands were empty, she crawled inside, lay down, and turned her back to Lu Shi.
This time, it was quite like a scene in a dream, it didn't seem good, she moved to Lu Shi's place, and lay down next to her.
She took the initiative to get closer, which surprised Lu Shi slightly. After thinking about it carefully, the scenes from the previous life reappeared in her mind, and they should not be separated like they were then.After silently sighing, she hugged Chu Ran sideways, and leaned close to her ear: "Your Highness."
When Chu Ran was called by her, her ears itch, and the itch went into her heart. She touched her chest and twisted it twice, "What are you going to do?"
She was at a loss, and what she said gave Lu Shi a headache, and suddenly regretted not letting Shang Gong come over, or leaving Xinyang's picture album, and it was not good to refuse both.
After a moment of silence, Lu Shi hugged her and stopped still. The scent of roses was alluring, and it was hard to tell whether it was Chu Ran's body scent or the scent of flower sugar.After hesitating for a moment, she kissed Chu Ranying's ear.
There was still sugar in Chu Ran's mouth, and he froze his body, wanting to know how Lu Shi became different from the dream, and felt that the dream became more and more absurd.
The red silk in the tent flipped, and Chu Ran realized that except for the incident of shielding the sword for His Majesty, almost everything was contrary to the dream, especially the unpredictable Lu Shi.
Her ears were warm, and her heart almost jumped out of her throat. She thought about it for a while, but the answer was unsuccessful.
She turned her back to Lu Shi, and Lu Shi only kissed her lightly, with her forehead resting on her hair, stroking her eyebrows and eyes, rubbing her eyes, and then loosened at some point. overflow.
Chu Ran was nervous, and wanted to know what Lu Shi would do. She was thinking wildly in her head, and her neck became hot, and she breathed heavily: "You, you..."
After talking about you for a long time, your tongue got stuck and you couldn't speak. Lu Shi was so nervous that his palms were slippery. Hearing her stuttering words, he found it interesting, "Does Your Highness want to sleep?"
Chu Ran felt that what she said was a pitfall. Although she didn't have much awareness, they were meant to be together when they got married, and they resisted it just now, so they felt a little relieved at this time.
It's not the first time for Lu Shi, there was a time when the love was strong in the previous life, but every time it was Chu Ran who took the initiative, but now Chu Ran didn't treat her deeply, and lost his initiative.
Chu Ran's temperament is mostly casual, and she is imprisoned in her arms without moving, which is different from just now, and she doesn't know how to think about it, maybe she is still ignorant?
She suddenly remembered the foot bell, paused, stroked Chu Ran's smooth black hair, and said softly, "If you want to sleep, sleep."
Chu Ran said casually: "Then go to sleep." After finishing speaking, she leaned into her arms, feeling at ease.
Lu Shi had no choice but to hold him tighter, and she took the initiative to send it over, "Then I won't sleep, I will sleep later."
It was quiet all around, Chu Ran's ears felt hot, and after a long pause, she didn't say a word, only feeling that her shoulders were getting hotter and hotter, she tilted her head so that she didn't need to see Lu Shi, and the shyness in her heart dissipated a bit.
At some point, her body was covered with a beautiful quilt, and the damp heat behind her disappeared, her feet itched slightly, she moved under the quilt, her ankles felt cold, and she said in surprise, "What are you doing?"
She curled up, her ankle was pierced by a hard little thing, she felt strange, thought of going to have a look, and heard the sound of a bell as soon as she moved.
The whole person is dumbfounded, she is not fifteen, what is she doing with the bell?
She reached out and wanted to pick it off, but Lu Shi held her down with a smile, and his voice was as warm as spring rain: "Don't move."
There are palace servants and maids in the corridor, if they move any more, they will hear the sound, and after a while they feel that this person is really dishonest, how could they think of such a little thing.
Lu Shi still embraced her from behind, and told her in a low voice: "A gift from Concubine Ming."
Concubine Ming?Chu Ran suddenly remembered what happened in front of Zhang Huatai that day, and asked Xinyang afterwards, but she refused to say anything, and repeated that Lu Xiang was very fierce, so that she would not be bullied in the future, but would go back fiercely.
Could it be that Xinyang sent this gadget?
She struggled twice in Lu Shi's arms, "You were so fierce to Xinyang that day, and that's why?"
Lu Shi didn't answer, but pulled her body into his arms, the quilt covered the gadgets on her feet, her voice was a little softer, and her silence made Chu Ran preconceived.
It was in vain that she was so considerate to Xinyang that she actually gave Lu Shi such a thing, and she will definitely take care of her when they meet next time.
Thinking in her heart, the bell rang again, she simply closed her eyes and didn't move, and followed Lu Shi to toss, because she was supposed to marry her, and she would not suffer.
Chu Ran wanted to break the jar, so she curled up in Lu Shi's arms and let her play with it.
When she didn't move, she seemed a bit obedient. Satisfied, Lu Shi suddenly turned over her body, looked directly into her eyes, and defended Xinyang: "I'm afraid it has nothing to do with her."
Chu Ran snorted coldly, like raccoon dogs, everything is the same everywhere, when Fang wanted to speak, the corners of his lips were blocked.She grabbed Lu Shi's shoulder and wanted to push her away, but the hateful bell rang again.
She froze her body, and suddenly there was a knock on the door, "Lu Xiang."
Chu Ran turned her head to look, and laughed lowly: "Your maid is so ignorant." What happened outside, she ran to knock on the door. At such a time today, it is time to find the old lady, and there will be Marquis Runan at worst.
There was a knock on the door and it was gone.
The person who knocked on the door was the maidservant of the Lu family, who was looking for Prime Minister Lu urgently.After she rang the bell, Axiu rushed back and frowned, "Are you sensible? If you are not sensible, go back to the Lu residence. What's the trouble at such a time?"
Axiu has followed Lu Shi for many years, and has learned her tone so well that the little maid did not dare to reply, and answered with her head down: "The old lady is in a hurry, please ask Lu Xiang to come over."
"Lu Xiang will serve tea tomorrow." Axiu politely refused, looked up at the candles in the room, and took the maid down in a low voice. After saying a few words, the maid still didn't want to leave.
There was a palace man standing under the corridor, and when he saw it, he said directly: "Is there anything I have to see Prime Minister Lu, and I can't say it tomorrow?"
The one who came from the palace spoke more directly than Axiu, and the little servant girl shrank her head and left.Axiu smiled gratefully, "Why don't you guys go eat some chicken noodle soup, it's delicious after a few hours."
The palace servants shook their heads in response, they didn't even move, Axiu couldn't coax them well, seeing that they were willing to guard, she went to the kitchen to eat some noodles.
After going down the steps, there was a meow in the grass, and she suddenly remembered that she was busy all day today and forgot to feed Fifteen, she called twice, and carried Fifteen together to the kitchen.
After some disputes, no one heard the golden bell in the house.
Chu Ran frowned slightly, stopped after moving a few times, took a deep breath, and looked at Lu Shi angrily: "I won't eat your flower candy." She pursed her mouth tightly, curled up, and touched the little thing.
Her mind was obvious, people were so close, her pink lips were biting red, as if she had put on rouge, Lu Shi clasped her waist and clasped her hands tightly, pressing against her forehead: "You don't move!"
Concubine Empress Xian suggested that Princess Xinping get married from the palace. After all, she was the eldest son. If she did not do well, the imperial censors and civil officials would discuss it. Emperor Chu didn't pay much attention, and ordered people to do it. talent.
After Chu Ran was invited into the palace, he really didn't see Lu Shi. After all, there were still three days left, so he didn't see Lu Shi.
Life in the palace was boring, Xinyang would come over from time to time, bringing snacks and fruits from Concubine Ming, sitting for half a day.
One day, when Xinyang did not come, Chu Ran felt strange and ordered someone to look for it. Finally, the palace servants saw Lu Xiang stopping Xinyang outside Zhang Huatai.
For some reason, Xin Yang's face was pale when he left, as if being bullied by Lu Xiang, and he didn't see her that day.
Chu Ran didn't know what happened, so she took some silver and blocked the palace man's mouth, and asked when Xinyang came over.
Xinyang would go to Concubine Ming when he had troubles. Recently, Emperor Chu loved to go to Lin Cairen's place, and Concubine Ming rarely stepped into the gate of the palace, which made Xinyang cheaper.
Outside Ben puffed up his cheeks, and couldn't help crying when he saw Concubine Ming.Concubine Ming frowned, ordered the palace servants to leave, and beckoned her to come over.
Xinyang walked over weeping, told all the things in one brain, and finally accused Lu Xiang: "Lu Xiang is very fierce, even more fierce than Heng Wang."
After complaining, she buried herself in Concubine Ming's arms and cried until she was out of breath.
Concubine Ming patted her on the back as a consolation. Prime Minister Lu is a man known throughout the court, and he will definitely not make things difficult for Xinyang because of trivial matters. She thought about it for a while, lowered her head and said to Xinyang: "What did you give Princess Xinping?" ?”
Xinyang sniffed, raised his head from her arms, his eyes were red from crying: "That's, those books you gave me, the palaces didn't go to the princess mansion, probably the queen didn't order it, so I gave it to sister If I go, Lu Xiang will kill me and tell me not to send things to Sister, and keep the good things for myself, and the righteous words she said are so fierce."
Concubine Ming supported her forehead, she was also helpless for Xinyang's foolish behavior, Lu Shi Gao Fengjiyue, how could he not be annoyed when he saw a book that taught women how to be happy.
There are many female officials in the court, but Lu Shi is the only high-ranking official, which shows that she is not an ordinary person.
Then I thought about it, why didn't the Shang Palaces go to the Princess Mansion?She couldn't figure it out by herself, the queen should not care about these trivial matters, there is no need to stop her.
Xinyang was already afraid of Lu Shi, and he would not dare to see her on weekdays, but now that she is fierce, he is afraid that after Xinping gets married, he will not dare to go to the Prime Minister's mansion in the future.
She lightly touched Xinyang's soft nape, and comforted her, "Apologize to Prime Minister Lu, okay?"
Xinyang didn't think about shaking his head, thinking of Lu Xiang's cold appearance, he felt frightened, shaking his head like a child's rattle: "No, no, I'll let sister go."
"Fool, if you tell Princess Xinping about this, Prime Minister Lu will not only hurt you." Concubine Ming was amused, and Prime Minister Lu solved it quietly. He wanted to hide this from Princess Xinping, and looking for her would only make Lu Xiang even more disgusted.
Xinyang was speechless, her little hands tightly grasped Ah Ruan's wrist, her brows were deeply frowned, and she was still crying, but she didn't understand what she did wrong. Why do you want to kill her, you can't tell my elder sister.
So sad.She cried for a while, and Concubine Ming asked someone to make her some marzipan cheese, coaxed her to eat it, and slept with her for half an hour.
Xinyang did something wrong, which made Lu Xiang unhappy, and Concubine Ming struggled to find a way to save her.After Xinyang left the palace, she couldn't protect her. Lu Xiang thought of his friendship with Princess Xinping, so he would reach out to protect her.
Annoying her will not do Xinyang any good.
She slept with Xinyang in her arms for a day, and when she woke up the next morning, Xinyang's eyes were still a little red, she had no choice but to ask someone to fetch medicine to apply.
For breakfast, I made Xinyang's favorite food. The silver noodles under the pheasant soup was half a bowl, not too much. After eating, I ate a few crystal dumplings.
After Xinyang was fed by Concubine Ming, she went to find Chu Ran.Yesterday has not passed, I feel uncomfortable in my heart, and I want to see him.
Concubine Ming held her back, not letting her go, and said: "Go to the Prime Minister's residence and give Prime Minister Lu a gift for me."
Upon hearing Lu Xiang, Xinyang's face turned pale, and he grabbed Concubine Ming's hand, muttering: "Ah Ruan, let the servant go?"
"If I let the servant go, the queen will know, and everyone in the palace will know, and I will get into trouble." Concubine Ming coaxed me gently. With his head down, Prime Minister Lu is a majestic person, with a cold face, even the bold courtiers dare not answer casually. It is conceivable how frightened Xinyang was.
It's easy to coax Xinyang to be timid. Hearing that Concubine Ming is in danger, she will go if she doesn't want to. She nodded her head hard: "Then I'll go, what should I say?"
"Your Highness doesn't need to say anything, just say that I gave it to you." Concubine Ming embraced Xinyang, and lightly touched the corner of her lips.Princess Xinping already knew about the matter between her and Xinyang, and Lu Xiang couldn't hide it from her. Maybe Lu Xiang had already known about her relationship with Xinyang.
The palace man brought a palm-sized box, which was so ordinary that he didn't care if he looked at it.
Xinyang took it over, flipped it twice in his hand, and stretched out his hand to open it. Concubine Ming pressed her hand: "Don't look at it, don't look at it along the way."
Concubine Ming never treated Xinyang harshly, most of the time she coaxed her whenever she could, but her tone today was different from the past.Xinyang understood, touched her wrist, carefully put the box into her sleeve pocket, and left the palace with the token.
****
Lu Xiang got a few days off to take care of the house. He discussed with his mother the rules for the day of welcoming the bride. Suddenly, he heard the announcement from the doorman, so there was no need to delay. After talking with his mother, he went to the flower hall to meet the guests.
Xinyang was very nervous when she stepped into the prime minister's mansion. She drank tea, and Axiu put flower candies for her, but she didn't see her take it to eat. Her small eyes kept aiming at the door, and when she saw a blue figure, she was scared. Heart skipped a beat.
Seeing her terrified look, Axiu couldn't tell what happened for a while, so she waved away the palace servants waiting by the door.
After Lu Shi came in, he saluted first, with a humble attitude. Compared with yesterday, he was much gentler. Xin Yang felt a little less timid in his heart. He took out the box in his sleeve pocket, and stuffed it directly into her hand regardless of whether Lu Xiang took it or not. .
"This is Concubine Ming asking me to hand it over to Prime Minister." She looked down at her feet, not daring to look at Lu Xiang's expression.
There was an extra box in Lu Shi's hand, and he didn't know what Concubine Ming meant, so he thought for a while and said, "Please tell Concubine Ming, Your Highness, to thank her for her kindness."
Her expression was gentle, so Xinyang dared to look up at her, rolled his dark eyes, lowered his head again, and said in a low voice: "If there is nothing wrong, I will go back to the palace first."
"Wait a minute, Your Highness." Lu Shi called her, raised his jaw towards Axiu, and signaled her to return the gift.
Concubine Ming asked Xinyang to come over quietly, probably not wanting others to know, so the gift should be simple.Knowing what the prime minister was thinking, Ah Xiu leaned over and retreated, and went to the warehouse to pick out a red coral bracelet.
Xinyang likes to eat, so Axiu asks someone to prepare some.The prime minister's mansion always keeps flowers and candies, just in case Princess Xinping comes over, so it is also convenient.
After the things were loaded into the carriage, Xin Yang left the Prime Minister's Mansion holding the things with the bracelets in his hands, and went to see Concubine Ming after returning to the palace.
After her figure disappeared, Lu Shi opened the box, and there were only a pair of small golden bells inside.
She stared silently, what did Concubine Ming mean?
Yesterday, I only mentioned something to Xinyang, and I didn't say anything harshly, but she was so frightened that she was about to cry. I wanted Chu Ran to persuade her, so as not to hurt the sisterhood because of her.
It's just that before she made a move, Concubine Ming came to apologize on behalf of Xinyang, but this kind of gift is a bit strange.
What can the little golden bell do?
****
Concubine Ming leaned on the couch, staring at the golden silk ruyi pattern on the curtain, listening to the voice, a person crawled in from the window, and then Xinyang trotted over, and brought the bracelet in front of her like offering a treasure.
"Look, Ah Ruan, the pattern inside is really pretty, it looks like blood jade." Xin Yangqi was overjoyed, staring at the bracelet, and put Ming Concubine Tao's wrist on it.
Concubine Ming refused, instead she pushed it into her hand, saying: "You just take it as a gift from Prime Minister Lu, and wear it generously, so you don't need to be afraid."
What Ah Ruan said is always right, Xinyang nodded happily, thinking of the box he took early in the morning, he said strangely: "Ah Ruan, what treasure did you use to exchange this?"
"I didn't exchange my treasure." Concubine Ming smiled deeply, her eyes sparkling like water.
It's just a pair of little golden bells, Lu is older than Princess Xinping, so he should know the usefulness of these little bells.
Xinyang played with the bracelet, stayed in the hall for a while, and then went to look for Chu Ran. He hadn't seen her yesterday, so he should explain something today.
After she left, Chu Ran sent someone to get the fruit first, and then asked about the affairs of Zhang Huatai.Xinyang felt guilty, and didn't dare to say anything that annoyed Lu Shi, he hesitated for a long time, took the grapes to eat, and casually dealt with it.
She didn't want to talk about it, and Chu Ran couldn't force it. Only when she saw Lu Shi could she ask. The two of them didn't talk on weekdays, and I don't know why.
****
The queen suffered from a headache again, and Ling Yi stayed in front of the couch, not daring to move a step, so someone gave Chu Ran a gift of makeup, so she couldn't come.
The queen suffered from headaches, and she had it in the early years, and sometimes she would suffer from it. I don't know if it's true or not. Emperor Chu never cared.
In the palace, Concubine Xian is the second. She takes the responsibility of Chu Ran's big marriage and dare not slack off.Princess Xinping doesn't care about what she did wrong, she is afraid that the queen will criticize her after she recovers.
After hearing the news that Lingyi would not come, Xinyang applauded and ate half a bowl of rice for dinner.Staying in Chu Ran's palace at night, the two shared a couch, but Chu Ran did not refuse.
Around Haishi, news came from Zhanghua Palace, saying that His Majesty went to Lin Cairen's place. Xinyang rolled his eyes and ran away with the palace servants. He left a message and will come at five o'clock tomorrow.
Chu Guo welcomed the bride at dusk, and it was indeed a little early for her to come over at five o'clock.
Xinyang went to accompany Concubine Ming, Chu Ran was alone in the palace, and the prince couldn't come over, so someone sent a box of honey snacks, which contained rare candied lychees.Xinyang ran fast and did not eat these tributes, but the frozen fruits were not as good as the fresh ones.
When it was near Haishi, the palace servants sent something, quietly, a jar of green plum wine.
As a childhood sweetheart, she and Lu Shi are not the same.
The last gift was green plum wine, which matched the word, Chu Ran fell asleep after drinking two cups.Falling asleep after drinking is even sweeter.
As soon as Xinyang came over, she said it was five o'clock, and the sky was already bright. She looked at Chu Ran apologetically, and said quietly: "Sister, in the future, when Lu Xiang is fierce to you, you must go back fiercely. I can't bear it." Come on, she's so fierce."
Even worse than Brother Hengwang, Xinyang thought, but dared not say it.
Chu Ran forgot to ask what happened in front of Zhang Huatai two days ago. She wanted to ask, but the voice of Concubine Xian came from outside. She brought Shang Gong to put on makeup for her, and Xin Yang was pushed aside.
I went to Fengxian Hall yesterday to celebrate incense, so I don't need to go there again today.
Before dressing up, she had to take a bath. Chu Ran didn't like being surrounded by so many people, so she went to take a bath in a hurry. After she came out, there were several layers of dresses, and she let the palace servants fiddle with them.When she finished putting on her little gown, the palace man brought over a red long drawstring with Ruyi embroidered on it and crocheted with gold thread. She felt strange, and when she wanted to refuse, Concubine Xian tied it up for her.
It was tied close to her body, she felt uncomfortable, so she wanted to take it off, Concubine Xian slapped her hand away: "This is the rule, logically, the queen will tie it for you first, if she is not here, I will take it for her, don't blame you."
Chu Ran was taken aback by the words, and seeing that the wishful knot was tied, she asked strangely, "When can I pick it off?"
"Ask Prime Minister Lu." Concubine Xian said.
Chu Ran: "..." This rule is not good, after I go to the prime minister's mansion, I just pick it myself.
After dressing up, Concubine Ming came over surrounded by palace people. There were many people in the hall, especially Concubine Xian was still there. She smiled and gave Chu Ran a gold silk bracelet, which was naturally not comparable to the bracelet on Xinyang's hand.
Xinyang was eating snacks at the side without raising his head, Ah Ruan said he couldn't look at her, so he had to lower his head to eat.
The prince also came early, seeing Xinyang eating, he patted her on the head, and said strangely: "How can I know how to eat, and you will be here in two months."
Xin Yang pouted, and said: "Brother Prince, don't worry, I am different from Elder Sister." She is a descendant, and the regulations are different. When she arrives, there will be no such excitement.
The prince understood what she meant, patted her on the head, and said in a low voice: "The dowry from the Zhou family is not bad. When you get married, ask your elder sister for some dowry." Before finishing speaking, he lowered his voice and said : "The Xiangfu has a lot of good things, sister is not stingy."
When mentioning Xiangfu, Xinyang felt uncomfortable, with fruit in his mouth, shaking his head in response.
The prince smiled, staring at Chu Ran from a distance, with the corners of his lips curled, Ah Nan came and reminded him: "Your Highness, do you want to drink medicine? If you don't drink it, you will be cold."
"Say a few words with Sister Gu, you go to the side hall and wait." The prince waved at her and strode towards Chu Ran.
In September, it was neither hot nor cold, and the temperature was just right, but Chu Ran felt hot for no reason. The dress was tied up layer by layer, and she couldn't move freely. She was holding a fan in her hand. When she saw the prince, she crooked On the head, the jewels and jade on the gold crown collided, making a crisp sound.
The prince's gift has long been included in the dowry, and the siblings depend on each other for life, but if there is something good, Chu Ran will bring it to him first.Now, he gave her all the good ones as a dowry.
Although Lu Xiang is a woman with a delicate mind, she treats Chu Ran with a different heart and values her very much.He reached out to touch Chu Ran's neck crown, and said in a low voice: "Sister, if you have any grievances, remember to tell me. But if you bully Lu Xiang, don't tell me when you come back."
He was half-smiling, he looked solemn today, wearing a ceremonial crown on his head, the hem of the black robe was woven with gold thread, and on his waist was the prince's unique dragon-patterned jade, the already handsome man looked even more heroic today, When teasing Chu Ran, there was a three-point smile on his face.
Chu Ran felt hot, so he didn't want to talk to him. He looked at the young man quietly. Today is not the time to talk, so he said: "It's your turn to choose the princess."
The prince didn't answer, instead he poked her face with thick makeup, and said: "When you see Prime Minister Lu, wash your face first, so as not to frighten her."
He spoke so loudly that everyone laughed.
Chu Ran was very happy to see Ling Yi today. After a while, King Heng and his wife came over, with a gift, and said a few words of congratulations. Concubine Heng went to the central palace to look after the queen.
When the time came, Chu Ran naturally went to Zhang Huatai to bid farewell to Emperor Chu. The queen was not there, and he was the only one in the high position.
When the Emperor Chu married his daughter for the first time, his heart was a little fluctuated, and somehow he thought of the former queen. When he was moved, he said a few more words, which seemed to be a bit late.
After leaving the Emperor Chu, the chariot walked along the red palace wall, and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion after leaving the palace.
When Lu Shi greeted her, his brows and eyes were bent, and his expression was much more relaxed than usual.Others didn't dare to be presumptuous in the prime minister's mansion. After the salute, the people in the new house walked cleanly.
It was already dark outside, Chu Ran took down the fan, looked around and saw that there were no guests, and said, "It's so hot, can you take a rest?"
When Axiu heard this, she secretly smiled, and took a cup of wine.
The Hejin wine was naturally prepared by the Xiangfu. Chu Ran knew it was the green plum wine she drank last night after smelling it. She passed Lu Shi's arm and raised her head to drink it.
Lu Shi's expression remained the same. She glanced at it and remembered the big wedding scene in her dream. She felt that it was the same as now, she was still so cold.
She put down the wine, and Lu Shi reached out to hold her hand. The maid smiled, and when Lu Xiang had something to say, they all backed out.
Chu Ran was used to being led by her, so she didn't care at all, let go of the fan, and glanced around the room, it was quite different from what she had come here a few days ago.
Axiu led the people out, and Mrs. Lu asked someone to make Xiqian.Huanhuanxixi, there is such a custom in the city of Yingdu, marrying a wife and daughter, making some wedding money, with Bingdilian engraved on the face.
The guests outside were greeted by Marquis Runan, outsiders all said that the brothers and sisters of the Lu family were at odds, seeing him in the Lu residence, those rumors were self-defeating.
The new house was quiet, and Lu Shi had no intention of going out to greet the guests. Seeing Chu Ran's face slumped tightly, she glanced at her waist and said, "Your Highness, go take a bath?"
Chu Ran nodded as if relieved, walked to the dressing table and removed the golden crown, the waterfall-like blue hair slanted down, and Lu Shi, who was sitting on the couch, moved his eyes and remained silent.
The marriage of the two is different from others, they are both sober.Lu Shi didn't show up outside, let alone being drunk.
Chu Ran took off her bun and was about to take a bath. When she reached the door, she was pushed back by the palace servants, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, the knot of one heart."
She was startled, and then remembered what Concubine Xian said, turned around and glanced at Lu Shi, and settled it by herself.After thinking about it, he was about to leave, but the palace guards stopped him.
The palace people are all sent by the concubine Xian, staring at the newcomer, just as if the relationship between the two is not good enough, and they have to remind them of everything.
Chu Ran suddenly felt a headache, with a slightly annoyed face, and walked back without mentioning it, just said: "You go take a bath first."
Lu Shi couldn't be fooled, she walked over and came back again, her expression was wrong.She didn't ask, so she had no choice but to take a bath first. After leaving the room, she called the palace servant just now and asked them carefully.
There was a lot of noise outside, and the sound came over, so Lu Shi asked someone to go ahead and have a look, as long as there was nothing wrong.
She waited in the corridor for a while, when the maid came over in a hurry, saying that it was all right, so she went to take a bath.
Chu Ran in the room wanted to pick off the so-called sympathetic knot by herself, but as soon as Lu Shi went out, the palace servant assigned by Concubine Xian came in, feeling like staring at her.
She glared, and sat still on the couch.
After waiting for a long time, I saw Lu Shi come back. She took off her wedding dress and walked slowly in blue clothes, her expression was much gentler.
Chu Ran felt that he couldn't hide it, or Lu Shi himself knew it, so he waved his hand to make the palace servants retreat.The palace man stood where he was, looking at Lu Xiang nervously.
Lu Shi had a clear mind and nodded to signal her to back down. Chu Ran looked up at her, his eyes fluttered for a few moments, and he stood up decisively to take a bath.
Lu Shi directly stretched out his arms around her waist, pulled her into his eyes, and said with a low smile, "Where is your Highness going?"
"Bath." Chu Ran was hugged by her, the concentric knot at the waist was almost on fire, his chin touched the corner of Lu Shi's lips, his skin was numb, and he said impatiently, "Untie the concentric knot."
The door of the new house was open, and the palace servants in the corridor shrank their necks when they heard the princess's words, not daring to speak.
Lu Shi looked at her with indifferent eyes: "How to solve it?"
Chu Ran was stunned for a moment, but this person didn't know where the concentric knot was. She was ashamed to speak, looked at the door, and said, "Close the door first."
Lu Shi turned around and glanced coldly at the maidservant standing at the door. Her eyes were majestic and could not be disobeyed. The maidservant did not dare to raise her head and closed the door with her hand.
There were only two people in the room, and Chu Ran didn't believe what she said just now. Could it be that no one told her about these rules?
She was ignorant because she had never seen it in her dream, and Lu Shi was the same. In the previous life, the marriage was rushed, and Chu Ran even married from the princess's mansion. Most of these rules were not followed.
It's not easy to stand all night, Chu Ran held back Lu Shi's hand shyly, and touched her fingers with her fingers, almost entangled.
Chu Ran took her hand to untie the concentric knot on her waist, and pursed the corners of her lips. If she didn't untie it, she couldn't take a bath.
She was careful, her wrists were limp, not as strong as she could hold a sword before, and her hand hooked Lu Shi's and fell to her waist.Lu Shi stared at the rouge on the corner of her lips, which was as bright as a red flower.
In the previous life, Chu Ran was as gorgeous as before, and she also looked like this, but she didn't like to talk, and she didn't take the initiative to speak from the beginning to the end.Both of them had dull temperaments, and the new house was so lifeless that the maid did not dare to speak, and hurriedly left after drinking the Hebei wine.
The same is true after going to bed.
Lu Shi looked at the ordinary-looking person, and a trance suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. She was stunned for a moment, and the scenes of the two worlds blended in front of her eyes, and her heart suddenly ached, and she hardly dared to look into Chu Ran's eyes.
Taking a deep breath, trying to suppress the emotions in her heart, her hands were soft and soft, she followed Chu Ran's direction to look, the outer robe blocked it, and after touching for a long time, she only touched through the clothes.
The etiquette that was not there in the previous life, I never thought that it would be completed in this life. Untie the outside and then untie the inside to complete the etiquette.
One heart, one heart, I hope that Chu Ran will be of one heart and one mind with her in this life.
The dress is divided into several layers, which is really in the way.She untied her complicated dress with the other hand, and Chu Ran didn't speak. After untiing one, her head hung lower: "It seems that there is another one."
That was the one that caused her the most headache, it was itchy and uncomfortable against the skin.
The dress was divided into several layers. After taking off the outer dress, there was a red jacket inside, and the neckline was still crocheted with gold thread. Chu Ran felt uncomfortable being stared at, so she raised her hand and took off one by one.
She took off very quickly, and felt a lot more relaxed. The peach-colored gauze was close to her skin, and the white skin reflected the peach blossoms, which made people's hearts move.
The two stood facing each other, and the dresses they had taken off were placed on the couch. Chu Ran simply thought that nothing would happen if the concentric knot was untied. In the dream, the two of them were just sleeping together.Seeing Lu Shi not moving, she wanted to urge her: "What's wrong with you?"
When she raised her head, Lu Shi stretched out his hand to wrap around her waist, ignoring the concentric knot, pressed against the corner of Chu Ran's lips, and said in a low voice, "Are you in a hurry to take a bath?"
Lu Shi's body was warm, full of water vapor after bathing, Chu Ran blinked, and before he could think about it, his eyes were covered, and his waist tightened, "Don't you want to untie the knot of sympathy?"
"You need to lie down to understand." Lu Shi's voice was calm, the same as in the past, but Chu Ran's ears felt hot when he heard it.She was busy thinking about refusing, and her back was soft.
She is not a weak woman, how can she be bullied so casually, she just wants to push Lu Shi away with her hand.Lu Shi's hand fell on his waist, and his voice was soft: "Don't move."
She is untying the sympathy knot.
Chu Ran believed it, and lay quietly waiting for her to untie it, clenched her fingertips tightly, and somehow a phantom flashed in front of her eyes, and suddenly there was a sweet taste in her mouth, and when she touched it with the tip of her tongue, it was rose flower candy.
Lu Yi offered candy, and she bit it.
There were only two people in the room, Chu Ran didn't think much about it, just like an ignorant child.Lu Shi stared at her intently, and the scene of the wedding night in her previous life flooded into her mind. She suppressed her emotions and reached out to reach for the concentric knot.
The fingertips first slid across the fabric and landed on Ningxue's skin, Chu Ran trembled slightly, Lu Shi's hands were very cold, she almost wanted to curl herself up, the sugar in her mouth was slowly melting.
She endured it and did not move.
Chu Ran is so obedient and so quiet that he believed in Concubine Xian's words, and only Lu Shi could untie the concentric knot.
Lu Shi understood that Chu Ran would not be so obedient once the sympathy knot was untied, and she frowned slightly.Chu Ran was resting on the pillow, her head full of blue hair scattered on the red silk, and the candle was brightly lit, reflecting her pink skin. Lu Shi reached out and untied the golden hook on top of her head, and the red veil fell down instantly.
Chu Ran felt something was wrong, the light turned red, she looked at Lu Shi, but Lu Shi leaned over, her head buzzed, and she felt a little flustered.
The corners of the lips touched, with a different sweetness, Chu Ran pushed twice, and said angrily: "You lied to me."
Lu Shi remained silent, stroking her frowning brows with his fingertips, only a single shirt was left on his body, and the neckline was half-open, revealing a piece of white and greasy skin inside. After watching for a while, the color of his eyes changed, "Your Highness, do you want to regret it?"
"No, no, you untie the sympathetic knot and let me get up." Chu Ran staggered Lu Shi's cold gaze, turned his head away from her, the small world was full of red eyes, and the candy in his mouth was finished.
Lu Shi looked at her and said lightly, "Do you want flower candy?"
"Don't eat." Chu Ran refused angrily. If she eats candy, she will be bullied. Candy is not tasty.Her heart was pounding, she touched the concentric knot around her waist, and felt even more annoyed: "You untie it first."
Her face was flushed, and she was so anxious that her body became hot. What kind of rules is this? She gritted her teeth and said, "I will solve it myself."
Lu Shi said, "It's against the rules."
"Then you understand, you understand one, and you don't understand the other, you deliberately teased me." Chu Ran took a few breaths, and Lu Yi changed, which was very different from the dream.
Lu Shi touched her hand, the palm was sweating, she leaned over to look at her: "What are you afraid of?"
"There are so many things I'm afraid of. It's better for Lu Xiang to untie the sympathy knot." Chu Ran hooked her hand to untie the sympathy knot. If he had known that she would not tie the knot, he would cause trouble for himself.
Lu Shi didn't force her, and stretched out his hand to untie the concentric knot, his cold hands didn't even touch the skin beside him.After untying it, Chu Ran got up to take a bath, and most of the guests outside had dispersed.
Mrs. Lu asked someone to come and see, and she did not forget to send some chicken noodle soup.The chicken soup was boiled for several hours, and when it was brought into the house, it was steaming and delicious.
After Chu Ran came out of the bath, she ate half a bowl and turned her head to look inside the house. Lu Shi leaned on the pillow, closed his eyes and thought, not knowing what he was thinking.
After using the noodles, the maid went in to clean up, and retreated after a while.She saw the purse under the pillow, and secretly picked it up. There was rose candy in it, and that's where the candy was from just now.
She took out one and put it in her mouth. It was sweet. Before she could bite, Lu Shi raised her eyes and looked at her. Her hands trembled in fright, and she handed out the purse: "Eat, eat candy?"
With obscurity in Lu Shi's eyes, he stared at her white wrist and remained silent for a while.
She seemed unhappy, Chu Ran took out a candy from it and put it near her mouth: "Your candy, you can eat it."
Lu Shi was cold, similar to the time of disaster relief. Chu Ran couldn't decide what she was thinking, so he crunched the candy in his mouth, dawdled twice, sat beside her, and whispered, "Are you angry just now?"
"No." Lu Shi took the purse and didn't eat it. Instead, he put it back in its original place and glanced at the bright red candle.
She said again: "I'm going to see my mother tomorrow morning, go to bed early."
Lu Shi suddenly took the sugar away, Chu Ran was stunned for a moment, her hands were empty, she crawled inside, lay down, and turned her back to Lu Shi.
This time, it was quite like a scene in a dream, it didn't seem good, she moved to Lu Shi's place, and lay down next to her.
She took the initiative to get closer, which surprised Lu Shi slightly. After thinking about it carefully, the scenes from the previous life reappeared in her mind, and they should not be separated like they were then.After silently sighing, she hugged Chu Ran sideways, and leaned close to her ear: "Your Highness."
When Chu Ran was called by her, her ears itch, and the itch went into her heart. She touched her chest and twisted it twice, "What are you going to do?"
She was at a loss, and what she said gave Lu Shi a headache, and suddenly regretted not letting Shang Gong come over, or leaving Xinyang's picture album, and it was not good to refuse both.
After a moment of silence, Lu Shi hugged her and stopped still. The scent of roses was alluring, and it was hard to tell whether it was Chu Ran's body scent or the scent of flower sugar.After hesitating for a moment, she kissed Chu Ranying's ear.
There was still sugar in Chu Ran's mouth, and he froze his body, wanting to know how Lu Shi became different from the dream, and felt that the dream became more and more absurd.
The red silk in the tent flipped, and Chu Ran realized that except for the incident of shielding the sword for His Majesty, almost everything was contrary to the dream, especially the unpredictable Lu Shi.
Her ears were warm, and her heart almost jumped out of her throat. She thought about it for a while, but the answer was unsuccessful.
She turned her back to Lu Shi, and Lu Shi only kissed her lightly, with her forehead resting on her hair, stroking her eyebrows and eyes, rubbing her eyes, and then loosened at some point. overflow.
Chu Ran was nervous, and wanted to know what Lu Shi would do. She was thinking wildly in her head, and her neck became hot, and she breathed heavily: "You, you..."
After talking about you for a long time, your tongue got stuck and you couldn't speak. Lu Shi was so nervous that his palms were slippery. Hearing her stuttering words, he found it interesting, "Does Your Highness want to sleep?"
Chu Ran felt that what she said was a pitfall. Although she didn't have much awareness, they were meant to be together when they got married, and they resisted it just now, so they felt a little relieved at this time.
It's not the first time for Lu Shi, there was a time when the love was strong in the previous life, but every time it was Chu Ran who took the initiative, but now Chu Ran didn't treat her deeply, and lost his initiative.
Chu Ran's temperament is mostly casual, and she is imprisoned in her arms without moving, which is different from just now, and she doesn't know how to think about it, maybe she is still ignorant?
She suddenly remembered the foot bell, paused, stroked Chu Ran's smooth black hair, and said softly, "If you want to sleep, sleep."
Chu Ran said casually: "Then go to sleep." After finishing speaking, she leaned into her arms, feeling at ease.
Lu Shi had no choice but to hold him tighter, and she took the initiative to send it over, "Then I won't sleep, I will sleep later."
It was quiet all around, Chu Ran's ears felt hot, and after a long pause, she didn't say a word, only feeling that her shoulders were getting hotter and hotter, she tilted her head so that she didn't need to see Lu Shi, and the shyness in her heart dissipated a bit.
At some point, her body was covered with a beautiful quilt, and the damp heat behind her disappeared, her feet itched slightly, she moved under the quilt, her ankles felt cold, and she said in surprise, "What are you doing?"
She curled up, her ankle was pierced by a hard little thing, she felt strange, thought of going to have a look, and heard the sound of a bell as soon as she moved.
The whole person is dumbfounded, she is not fifteen, what is she doing with the bell?
She reached out and wanted to pick it off, but Lu Shi held her down with a smile, and his voice was as warm as spring rain: "Don't move."
There are palace servants and maids in the corridor, if they move any more, they will hear the sound, and after a while they feel that this person is really dishonest, how could they think of such a little thing.
Lu Shi still embraced her from behind, and told her in a low voice: "A gift from Concubine Ming."
Concubine Ming?Chu Ran suddenly remembered what happened in front of Zhang Huatai that day, and asked Xinyang afterwards, but she refused to say anything, and repeated that Lu Xiang was very fierce, so that she would not be bullied in the future, but would go back fiercely.
Could it be that Xinyang sent this gadget?
She struggled twice in Lu Shi's arms, "You were so fierce to Xinyang that day, and that's why?"
Lu Shi didn't answer, but pulled her body into his arms, the quilt covered the gadgets on her feet, her voice was a little softer, and her silence made Chu Ran preconceived.
It was in vain that she was so considerate to Xinyang that she actually gave Lu Shi such a thing, and she will definitely take care of her when they meet next time.
Thinking in her heart, the bell rang again, she simply closed her eyes and didn't move, and followed Lu Shi to toss, because she was supposed to marry her, and she would not suffer.
Chu Ran wanted to break the jar, so she curled up in Lu Shi's arms and let her play with it.
When she didn't move, she seemed a bit obedient. Satisfied, Lu Shi suddenly turned over her body, looked directly into her eyes, and defended Xinyang: "I'm afraid it has nothing to do with her."
Chu Ran snorted coldly, like raccoon dogs, everything is the same everywhere, when Fang wanted to speak, the corners of his lips were blocked.She grabbed Lu Shi's shoulder and wanted to push her away, but the hateful bell rang again.
She froze her body, and suddenly there was a knock on the door, "Lu Xiang."
Chu Ran turned her head to look, and laughed lowly: "Your maid is so ignorant." What happened outside, she ran to knock on the door. At such a time today, it is time to find the old lady, and there will be Marquis Runan at worst.
There was a knock on the door and it was gone.
The person who knocked on the door was the maidservant of the Lu family, who was looking for Prime Minister Lu urgently.After she rang the bell, Axiu rushed back and frowned, "Are you sensible? If you are not sensible, go back to the Lu residence. What's the trouble at such a time?"
Axiu has followed Lu Shi for many years, and has learned her tone so well that the little maid did not dare to reply, and answered with her head down: "The old lady is in a hurry, please ask Lu Xiang to come over."
"Lu Xiang will serve tea tomorrow." Axiu politely refused, looked up at the candles in the room, and took the maid down in a low voice. After saying a few words, the maid still didn't want to leave.
There was a palace man standing under the corridor, and when he saw it, he said directly: "Is there anything I have to see Prime Minister Lu, and I can't say it tomorrow?"
The one who came from the palace spoke more directly than Axiu, and the little servant girl shrank her head and left.Axiu smiled gratefully, "Why don't you guys go eat some chicken noodle soup, it's delicious after a few hours."
The palace servants shook their heads in response, they didn't even move, Axiu couldn't coax them well, seeing that they were willing to guard, she went to the kitchen to eat some noodles.
After going down the steps, there was a meow in the grass, and she suddenly remembered that she was busy all day today and forgot to feed Fifteen, she called twice, and carried Fifteen together to the kitchen.
After some disputes, no one heard the golden bell in the house.
Chu Ran frowned slightly, stopped after moving a few times, took a deep breath, and looked at Lu Shi angrily: "I won't eat your flower candy." She pursed her mouth tightly, curled up, and touched the little thing.
Her mind was obvious, people were so close, her pink lips were biting red, as if she had put on rouge, Lu Shi clasped her waist and clasped her hands tightly, pressing against her forehead: "You don't move!"
