The eldest princess and Li [rebirth]

After throwing himself into his arms and sending him off, Chu Ran angrily drove him out, and it was cooler when he hugged Lu Shi in summer, so he refused to let him go and just drove him out.

After Lu Shi was kicked out, he returned to the government office. On the way, he ran into Mr. Zhou, and the two went to the tea shop.

There are not many pedestrians on the streets in summer, and occasionally passers-by are in a hurry, and the business in the numerous shops is not as good as in spring.

The inside of the tea shop was cool, and the guests in the lobby were sitting in twos and threes. The shopkeeper knew Mr. Zhou and led him to the private room.

It's not easy for Mr. Zhou to be strong in front of Lu Shi, so he asked her to sit down first, and then told the shopkeeper: "I want some lotus seed tea."

The lotus seeds are bitter and astringent, and when they are fried into tea, the fragrance is lingering, and the taste is first astringent and then sweet.

The door to the south of the private room is open, occasionally there is a majestic breeze, and there is also a little bit of coolness.Lu Shi's posture was chaste and quiet, he took a sip of tea, and remained silent as before.

After drinking half a cup of tea, Elder Zhou said first, "The crown prince is dead, and the little emperor's grandson is raised at His Majesty's knees. King Heng is powerful, so what should Lu Que do?"

"Eating the king's salary, doing things for the king." Lu Shi said.

Her attitude was calm, just like in the past, Zhou Wenyi couldn't see her emotions clearly for a while, and didn't dare to test her, he thought for a while before saying: "There was a female emperor in the previous dynasty."

"His Royal Highness has no intentions, and the Xiangfu has no such intentions."

Zhou Wenyi was stunned, the situation was very good, there was a precedent for a female emperor in the previous dynasty, and Princess Xinping had been assisting the crown prince before, she had the mind to stand above the court, if she wanted to become a female emperor, she would have the upper hand according to the ability of the prime minister.

Before, the Zhou family had assisted the crown prince and had turned against King Heng. Now even if he turned to King Heng's sect, according to his narrow scheming, he would not give him good results.

After receiving Lu Xiang's reply, he was trapped in a cloud of fog. When he wanted to ask again, Lu Xiang stood up and said, "The office has something to do, so go back first."

"Lu Xiang, Lu Xiang." Zhou Wenyi showed bitterness on his face. Seeing Lu Xiang leave, he gritted his teeth secretly, but Lu Xiang was so strict and did not show his tone.

***

Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was discovered that there was something wrong with the warships in Wujiang, causing a storm in the court, and Heng Wang was the first to bear the brunt of the crime.

However, the Emperor Chu never condemned King Heng. Right now, he is the only adult prince, who is only dismissed from his position, excluded from the court, and not allowed to interfere in political affairs.

Two princes in the court had accidents one after another, and fell into a downturn for a while. Zhou Lao, who had always advocated peace talks, appealed to take back Wujiang.

The Ministry of War did not move forward and did not dare to promise, so it replied above the court: "The warship is weird, and it is not worth the loss to go into battle rashly."

Emperor Chu remained silent, and the two faced a stalemate.

Due to the death of the crown prince, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was omitted, and His Majesty only summoned a few important officials to hold a banquet with Zhang Huatai.

Chu Ran was not on the list and couldn't follow. He watched Lu Shi change his clothes in the mansion, and his words were sour: "Lu Xiang is going to the banquet, be careful."

"Watch out for what?" Lu Shi straightened his clothes, and was immediately puzzled when he heard this sentence.

Chu Ran lay reclined on the couch, with her hands folded on her chest, and said sarcastically, "Naturally, those beautiful actors, don't forget Lin's family background. His Majesty hosted a banquet and excluded me, there must be ghosts."

"Your Highness is thinking too much, you just want to add an extra seat." Lu Shi turned around and looked at her frowning face, and suddenly found it funny, but this time the banquet is indeed strange, since the banquet is held, and the royal family is excluded, it is difficult It is impossible to have other ideas.

Chu Ran said: "If I don't go, let's see if you come back alone or with two people tonight. If there are more than two people, you will not be allowed to go back to the house."

Lu Shi smiled and passed with a smile.

The maidservant came to remind her, the time was of the essence, Chu Ranfang sat up and looked at her seriously: "Is King Heng going?"

"No." Lu Shi said, she personally asked people to check this issue, and the list on the banquet was drawn up by His Majesty himself, except for King Ning, there was no one else.

Only then did Chu Ran feel relieved, and waved to her: "It's easy for Prime Minister Lu to go."

Instead of advancing, Lu Shi retreated, walked to the couch, raised her chin: "Your Highness, are you relieved now?"

"Lu Xiangjie takes good care of himself, so don't worry if you're alone. If you think about other bad things, you can make peace and leave. It's not difficult."

As soon as the words were finished, Chu Ran felt his jaw tighten and it hurt slightly.She was forced to look up and face Lu Shi, and the person in her eyes got closer and closer, until she came close to her eyes, and the corners of her lips hurt.

The whole body sank, and her head was held by her, unable to move.

It is not an exaggeration to attack a city, and Lu Shi will naturally be punished if he annoys him.

Lu Shi was not in a hurry, the corners of his lips were slightly numb when he let go of Chu Ran, but the person under him gave a deep smile, "Aren't Prime Minister Lu leaving?"

After that, he reached out and hugged her neck, pulling her into his arms.Lu Shi was not as strong as her, so he was forced to lean over, and his face turned red when he lost the initiative, "It's too late."

"Knowing that it is useless to be anxious, and no one will dare to say that you are wrong if you delay the time. It doesn't matter if Lu Xiang doesn't go." Chu Ran deliberately teased her, kissed her eyebrows, nose, and breathed hotly, dyeing the passion and desire in her heart .

Lu Shi has always been reserved, but now he can't move. When he was struggling, he heard Chu Ran's sneer: "I'll just let you go, but Lu Xiang is so used to it that he can't tell the direction. Does it feel comfortable to toss around on it?"

The sarcasm made Lu Shi's ears turn red, and she didn't know how to answer, so she said casually, "Don't talk nonsense."

"Lu Xiang is serious at the top, and if I tell the truth, it's just nonsense?" Chu Ran snickered, but hugged him tighter, wanting to see Lu Shi's impatience.

Lu Shi didn't move, but instead kissed her neck with a gentle force that was numb. Chu Ran subconsciously let go of her, "Lu Xiang can go now."

"No hurry, no hurry." Lu Shi smiled lightly, and gently pulled her into his arms, letting her struggle half-resistingly, and a voice of pain rang in her ears.

***

The palace banquet is simple, there are only three or four dishes on the food table, and the wine tastes sweet.

Emperor Chu's expression was gloomy, and the courtiers sitting next to him did not dare to say much, let alone talk left and right. Lu Shi was the leader, and King Ning sat opposite him. It was already empty.

The palace man continued, he was not addicted alone, and he drank with Lu Shi who was sitting opposite him. Rest in the side hall.

Before His Majesty spoke, the Prime Minister was already drunk, and the officials didn't know what to do, they could only hope that King Ning would make His Majesty drunk as well.

After King Ning lost his drinker and had no actor to accompany him to dance, he suddenly felt bored, and happened to see His Majesty, who was also alone, climbing up the imperial steps with the wine jar in his arms.

The ministers didn't know His Majesty's intentions for the banquet, so they all got drunk like Prime Minister Lu.King Ning and Prime Minister Lu talked about the old days, he was quite capable of getting drunk, a few words coaxed His Majesty to raise the wine cup one after another, and drank it up.

Outside the palace, the guards were walking back and forth, and the palace people filed in to serve the wine. On a night when the moon was thin and the stars were thin, it felt cool.

Lu Xiang sobered up in the side hall, and was so drunk that he passed out. King Ning had an amazing capacity for drinking, and she couldn't tell where she was going. She could only sit in the hall and wait quietly for the alcohol to pass.

The palace servants came in and served sober tea, even though Lu Shi was very drunk, he refused to drink it. The palace servants had no choice but to see her blurred eyes, so they unconsciously approached her, "Lu Xiang, Lu Xiang."

The voice is soft, and when you listen to it at first, it looks a bit like Princess Xinping, but the appearance is not. However, after a soft sound rang in the ears of the drunken person, he looked up at the person, his eyes were slightly fascinated, even if he was drunk Drunk, also with a bit of deterrence, frightened the palace servants back a few steps.

The hall was quiet and no one came to disturb her. The palace servants were so frightened that they took a few steps back. Seeing that there were only two of them in the hall, they took the risk and approached again.

Feeling drunk for a while, Lu Shifu hung his head again, leaning against the couch.

Lu Shi was born beautiful, and his drunk color added a bit of rare coquettishness. His eyebrows and eyes were usually hard to see, which tempted the palace people to swallow their saliva, and summoned their courage to test: "Lu Xiang, Lu Xiang, do you want to drink?" Hangover tea?"

After asking a few words, but no one answered, the palace servant became more courageous, and called out in a crisp voice, "Shall Prime Minister Lu go to bed?"

The breeze blew by, bringing a burst of coolness, and the drunken people did not echo.The palace servants retreated if they did not advance, walked to the incense burner, took out white medicinal powder from their sleeve pockets, sprinkled it in the burner, and quickly walked back to Lu Shi's side.

All the officials in the main hall were drunk, only King Ning was sober, he pulled Emperor Chu to talk about brotherhood, and said: "At that time, the emperor was only about ten years old, and he was unwilling when he wanted to choose a concubine. The younger brother went to stir up trouble, but in the end you got what you wanted, the younger brother was scolded by the first emperor, and the impeachment memorials of those stubborn old men were all thrown on the minister's head, and later on when you saw the first queen, you didn't even bat an eye..."

King Ning was also a little drunk, he claimed that he would never be drunk after a thousand cups, his dark face was slightly drunk, he was holding His Majesty and refused to let go, and he couldn't finish the business.

When the banquet was over, he went out of the hall with His Majesty, looked around and remembered someone: "Where did Prime Minister Lu go?"

The palace man guarding the door replied: "Sober up in the side hall."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a person walking down the steps, wearing a red dress, with sharp eyebrows and eyes: "Where did Prime Minister Lu go?"

"Xiao Xinping, come, have a drink with Uncle Wang." King Ning let go of His Majesty's hand, staggered two steps to Chu Ran, and was about to walk into the hall while pulling her. His Majesty didn't care much, and supported the palace servant Go to the bedroom.

Chu Ran flicked King Ning's hand away, and said, "Uncle Ning came just in time, I will solve the game for my niece, and I will send you a few bottles of wine in the future."

When King Ning heard the wine, he suddenly sobered up: "How to solve the situation, you can tell me."

"It's okay, it's okay, send a beauty to Uncle Wang." Chu Ranyan smiled at Yanyan, his eyes were as deep as the night, and pulled King Ning to the side hall.

King Ning didn't know anything, and followed her footsteps, not forgetting to remind: "Xiao Xinping, a few bottles are not enough to fit between teeth, so add more, it's easy to say, don't be stingy, Xiao Xinping..."

The officials were so drunk that they left with the support of the palace servants, let alone seeing the two of them.

The two uncles and nephews were in a hurry, King Ning woke up drunk, thinking about the fine wine, bought some some time ago, but still couldn't enjoy it after drinking.It's a pity that he is very picky. Even if Chu Ran gave Lu Shi the wine made by himself, he still felt that the taste was not good.

When pushing open the door of the palace, Chu Ran paused, and after King Ning walked in, he smelled a scent, covered his nose, and covered Chu Ran's mouth with a handkerchief, "What are you doing here? Your Majesty has prepared, what are you going to do."

The next day, His Majesty was excused from court, and the courtiers attending the banquet did not wake up until they fell asleep.

The same is true for Lu Shi. She has always been reserved and rarely drinks alcohol when she goes to banquets. Last night, she was persuaded by King Ning to be helpless. She drank several glasses before she got drunk. She didn't remember how she met the mansion.

When she woke up, the sun was blinding her eyes, and she got up after a while, and felt something cold on her ankle as soon as she moved.

There was a rattling sound, like an iron object, and she was startled suddenly.
