The matter of Lu Huaisi attracted Jing Zhaoyin's attention, and after a few days of thorough investigation, he still had no thoughts. Hearing that someone saw Liancheng and Feng Tang that night, Jing Zhaoyin went to ask someone to question him.

The quarrel between Lu Xiang and Lu's family became known all over the city within a few days, and Jing Zhaoyin was not as diligent in investigating the case as before. He was originally a member of Lu's family, and now he doesn't have to give Lu's face.

By coincidence, the matter of the night party between Liancheng and Feng Tang was exposed.

There were rumors about the two people's night party in the city, and the rumors were not very pleasant. Chu Ran belatedly remembered what Lu Xiang said that day, and it really had nothing to do with her, but knowing such a incident, he didn't tell her .

When she was unhappy, she was invited by His Majesty to talk at Zhang Huatai, which was still a cup of tea.

There was no sound in the hall, and Chu Ran almost didn't dare to touch a cup of tea. Talking about other things, he didn't dare to touch tea.

Emperor Chu put down his imperial pen, "Listen to Jing Zhaoyin talking about Liancheng and Feng Tang, the woman's reputation, what does Xinping think?"

Feng Tang's official position is low, if it wasn't for Jing Zhaoyin's reminder, he wouldn't remember at all.

Chu Ran's expression was not good, and after staring down at the teacup, he said after a long while: "It's good for Dad to be the master, and Mrs. Feng also met. Although she is a few years older, she has a good temper and can restrain Liancheng. It's a good thing."

Hearing her promise, Emperor Chu raised his head. Seeing that the tea had not been stirred, he frowned and said, "Liancheng is the grandson of my grandfather, and there are no other relatives in Yingdu City. Just go and choose a good day, and don't make too much noise." gone."

His Majesty asked Xiao Xiao to do it for what reason, Chu Ran didn't think too much, and hurriedly got up to thank the gift: "I understand, the three books and six rituals always have to go, and it will take four or five months after a while, so I will go seriously Just arrange it."

Chu Ran knelt on the icy floor tiles, the coolness permeated her skin, and her bones were numb. The Emperor Chu who was seated seemed displeased, and he didn't wake her up. After pondering for a long time, he nodded: "You can make the decision, it's not a big deal. As long as you know how to measure it, don’t mess around with it.”

There was something in the words, and Chu Ran responded seriously: "Understood." She glanced at the cold tea on the table from the corner of her eye, and lowered her head even lower.

After kneeling for a while, her knees hurt, and she felt cold after holding on for a while. After holding back for a long time, His Majesty waved her out of the hall.

She rubbed her knees and backed out. She didn't drink tea today, which caused such a kneeling. She didn't know what would happen next time. She was thinking about the situation today, and she couldn't resist if the prince didn't return.

If you refuse for a long time, even if the tea is poisonous, you must drink it.

After returning home, she sent someone to invite Liancheng over to discuss the marriage.Feng Tang has no relatives, and she will not neglect, and she will not lack the rules that should be there.According to the situation of Liancheng in Yingdu City, he still needs to write a letter to let someone from the northwest take care of it, and he also needs to pay attention to the dowry.

The Lian family is everyone, so it's better not to be too shabby, so she asked someone to fetch a pen and paper, and she herself explained clearly the situation in the capital city of Ying, and also talked about the dowry.

The letters were all about ordinary matters, nothing else, and after a brief description, someone sent the letter to be delivered, and Liancheng came in a hurry.

Chu Ran's expression was not very good, his face was too pale, and he roughly said the matter: "Feng Tang will marry if he doesn't marry, His Majesty's will, you don't have to resist, and the night party is not good for women's reputation, you should think more about it." think."

The young man's face became hot when he heard it, and he twisted his sleeves with his hands, not daring to look up at His Highness. No one knew about the beating of Lu Huaisi that night. It was a secret between him and Feng Tang. not good.

And he did have a good impression of Lord Feng in his heart, he hesitated and said: "All, all listen to His Highness."

"Listen to me for everything, I'm afraid you have already made up your mind. Forget it, I'll take care of it for you." Chu Ran finally showed his face, put aside the things in Zhang Huatai, and said: "I let people Go to the Marquis Mansion to take care of it, and be quiet in the near future, Your Majesty is staring at you, you know."

Liancheng has always been responsible for doing things, he will not do what he shouldn't do at will, and his mind is right, but His Majesty's prejudice is getting deeper and he will not reuse him.Chu Ran often thought that it would be better to keep people in the northwest and be bound in everything when they entered the capital of Ying.

Liancheng could hardly suppress his joy, and when he heard that the marriage was settled, he couldn't help but praise Feng Tang: "Although Mrs. Feng is alone, she has a delicate mind, and when she marries a wife, she should marry a virtuous person. , I will help His Highness more in the future."

The young man didn't know that Feng Tang was Lu Xiang's confidant, and he was delighted that Chu Ran had won a good minister.Chu Ran smiled without saying a word, and had no intention of saying anything to him, and after telling him to go back, he lay back on the couch.

There was a slight pain in her knees, she curled herself up under the quilt, closed her eyes and listened quietly to the voices in the room.

The doors and windows were closed tightly, the brocade curtain was put down again, and the light on the couch was dim. She breathed lightly, and the fear in her heart slowly disappeared.It was getting dark in front of her eyes, and she forced herself to fall asleep.

Uneasy, I had that strange dream again.

Xinping is located in a remote place, far away from the capital of Ying. Although it is not as prosperous as the capital of Ying, it is still a world. It is very cold in winter. Chu Ran has lived in the palace for a long time and does not go out. She is also afraid of the cold in Xinping.

There was flying snow outside the hall, densely covering the sky, it was obviously a beautiful scene, but she had no intention of looking at it, holding a letter sent by Xiang Lu in her hand, the words were not many, and it did not introduce the situation in Yingdu City, Ask her about her well-being with a few words.

A bit of tenderness could be seen in Lu Xiang's handwriting. Her white fingertips ran across the ink-colored handwriting, and the corners of her lips curled slightly. She was delighted.No matter how deep the despair in my heart was dispelled by these words, Lu Xiang didn't dare to write too many words, His Majesty watched closely, the only thing he could write was these.

There was still a letter in her hand, but she was not willing to burn it. There were only a few words on the letter: When the situation is good, I will wait for you to come back.

Chu Ran smiled sarcastically, but she still didn't give up. Up to now, one person's death is enough, so why bother to involve others. After the joy, she threw the two letters into the charcoal fire, went to the window and opened the window, and the sky was full. The snowflakes came into view, she stretched out her hand to catch them, watching the crystal snowflakes in her hands slowly melt into water.

The vast snow scene, with the beauty bestowed by heaven and earth, is so beautiful that it shocks people's hearts. She whispered: "The snow scene is beautiful, and it's not interesting to be alone. The most regrettable thing is that I haven't seen it with you yet."

The joy in her eyes was gradually replaced by ashes, and the pain in her heart suddenly became stronger. She suddenly closed the window arbitrarily, kicked over the charcoal basin, and looked at the charcoal fire that fell on the ground, her eyes were full of hatred.

The people in the void squatted beside her, seeing her in pain, they reached out and wanted to touch her, but she was an illusory thing and could not touch anything.She seemed to empathize, and she also felt uncomfortable.

The charcoal fire made the ground turn red and black. She looked at the scarlet color, but when she looked up again, she saw a different scene. The inside of the Prime Minister's Mansion was also filled with snowflakes. The difference was that Lu Xiang was not admiring the scenery, but Talking to Feng Tang.

The two sat quietly, and she habitually walked to Lu Xiang's side, sat down beside her, and stared at her pale face.

Lu Shi pointed to the map on the case, pointed at the border between Song and Chu with his slender fingertips, and said in a low tone, "The crown prince wants to attack Song, this is the most important place."

The prince she was talking about was the former King Heng. She couldn't take it anymore, and just stared blankly at Lu Xiang's increasingly serious expression.

It's been a long time since she saw such a serious Lu Shi. She suddenly felt a pain in her heart, and wanted to touch her, but couldn't touch her. After sighing, Feng Tang left.

The map was also put away, Chu Ran walked behind Lu Shi, Lu Shi walked out of the study and returned to the bedroom with an umbrella, she saw her hands were red from the cold, no matter how cold it was, she didn't like to use a hand stove.

This man is really stubborn.

After returning to the bedroom, the maid took the paper umbrella in Lu Xiang's hand, and the door closed when she was swaying, and a gust of wind blew her out, and she kicked the door angrily, but couldn't get in. .

After waiting outside for an unknown amount of time, the door opened, and Lu Shi's hands were still red. She felt distressed and helpless, and silently followed her back to the study.

There was a strong charcoal fire in the study. Lu Shi sat behind the desk and wrote a letter. She wrote but did not write, her eyebrows were stained with ice and snow, and she became more and more indifferent.She glanced at the case, and there were four words on the paper: His Royal Highness kisses it.

It was written for her, why can't I continue writing?

Time passed at the tip of the pen, Lu Shi felt dissatisfied after picking up a few words, threw it into the Tan charcoal basin, and finally wrote down the numbers after repeating several times: The snow in the city of Yingdu is full of snow, Xinping is cold in Yingdu, and the city is full When it is snowing, His Highness, remember to add clothes and charcoal, never forget.

After hesitating for a long time, she almost wanted to pull her ears with just those words, but it was really useless.

Lu Xiang packed the letter and sent someone to deliver it. The distance between the two places is far away. I am afraid that the letter will not be delivered until next year. By then, the land will be full of spring, and there will be no wind and snow.

Lu Xiang was so stupid and not as smart as he is now. After shaking her head, she stood beside Lu Xiang and saw her open a box. There was only a letter in it. I don't know what it was written in.

She waited for a long time, but Lu Xiang did not open it.Lu Xiang's eyes were indifferent, he only opened the box without looking at it, his expression was dazed, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't see her move for a long time, like a puppet, foolishly.

It wasn't until the maid came in to hold the lamp that Fang came back to his senses and closed the box again, as if nothing happened.She was curious about what was in it, which made Lu Xiang, who had always been indifferent, lose his composure. Could it be a letter written by her?

After holding the lantern, Lu Shi bowed his head before the case, and was dealing with official documents. There were always aides coming to report matters. After King Heng came to power, His Majesty didn't like directors very much. From the words of the aides, it can be seen that Lu Xiang is in a difficult situation.

Until Zishi, Lu Xiang was not seen leaving the study, and he seemed to stay up all night.

The wind and snow were raging outside, and she felt chills when she heard the sound. She almost wanted to urge Lu Xiang to go back earlier. No matter how difficult the situation was, she had to rest earlier. She was so anxious that she didn't know what to do.

The wind and snow were so strong that they knocked open the door of the study, and a gust of wind blew in, making Chu Ran numb from the cold. She was eager to call Lu Xiang, but the candle was blown out and lost its light.

She felt cold, so she kept curling herself up, the lights suddenly turned on again, and there were more voices in her ears: "Your Highness hasn't woken up yet, and I haven't woken up after sleeping for half a day."

"His Royal Highness entered the palace again today?" The voice was usually cold, which made Chu Ran feel distressed.

"When I came back, my complexion was not good. When I met General Lian and talked about his marriage with Master Feng, General Lian happily left, leaving His Highness uneasy. I saw that something was wrong, so I invited the doctor. The doctor said It's all right."

As the sound of footsteps approached, Chu Ran almost woke up from the couch, covered in cold sweat.

Lu Shi walked over lightly and touched the sweat on her head: "Don't wake up during the day and don't want to sleep at night?"
