Come on, Your Highness

He Xichao accompanied Xiao Hong all the way into the carriage, closed the door to cut off all sight, and then took a deep breath to relax his stiff back.

"Cousin, drink some water."

He Xichao took out a cup from the cabinet in the car, poured water and handed it to Xiao Hong.

Xiao Hong took it silently, raised his mouth and drank it all, then looked down at the smooth and round cup in his hand, and suddenly said fiercely: "I will definitely kill this group of people and let their heads fall to the ground. One is the other, and no one will run away." No!"

He Xichao could completely understand Xiao Hong's mood, and the sluice had a great impact on him. Although he didn't show it, the shock in his heart was no less than Xiao Hong's.

This evil is so blatant and horrifying.

"For such a crime, it is enough to exterminate the nine clans."

Xiao Hong held He Xichao's hand, as if he wanted to draw calmness from him, "Xichao, I really can't imagine that the emperor's grandmother came from such a family, and the father still respects him so much. Now seeing that face , I really tried so hard not to restrain myself from strangling him to death. Magistrate Lu would be so decisive, I suddenly understood."

Xiao Hong's palms were full of sweat, and...

"The Queen Mother's death has fulfilled the emperor, and it also sent the Lu family to the peak. He returned home with the emperor's guilt and glory. Cheng Enhou's reputation and prestige reached the extreme, and his desire swelled along with it." He Xichao put his palm Open it, and there are fingerprints on the palms, which are glowing red, which shows how much strength he used to not control his gaffe.

He Xichao touched the bump with distress, and said, "Just bear with it, okay?"

"I will bear it, Xichao, I will endure no matter what, don't worry." Xiao Hong smiled at He Xichao.

But that smile was uglier than crying.

He Xichao once came out of the darkness, but Xiao Hong, who he guided, embraced the light as much as possible.

So when he suddenly encountered this heavy shadow, he seemed at a loss.

He Xichao didn't know how to comfort him, but Xiao Hong could only adjust his emotions by himself, he said softly: "There is no one now, why don't you lie down and rest for a while."

"Xi Chao, do you feel sorry for me?"

He Xichao didn't deny it, "Yes, I feel very distressed."

"Then can I lie on your lap?"

"Are you taking advantage of me?" Even so, He Xichao let Xiao Hong lie down, resting his head on his lap.

Xiao Hong put his arms around He Xichao's waist, buried his head in his waist, and hummed, "No, it's just that I feel more at ease this way."

He Xichao stroked his hair, but didn't speak.

As the carriage moved forward, Xiao Hong suddenly asked: "Xi Chao, are you afraid?"

He Xichao thought for a while, and replied: "I don't know, it seems to be because of fear."

"Then I'm not afraid, I'll protect you."

He Xichao chuckled, "Then I'm scared to death."

Xiao Hong also laughed sullenly, "Xi Chao, you are so cunning."

"It's not the first day you know me."

"At this time, when the guards saw the tiger talisman and the imperial decree, it's time to set off."

"Not surprisingly, yes."

"Then I will deal with this old man for another two days no matter what."

Chengenhou Mansion

The dandies who were left behind looked at Shao Shusheng together with the scholars, and saw that tea was dripping from the front of his clothes, and the maidservant in apricot clothes was wiping his body with a veil at a loss, while pleading guilty.

"Young Master Shao, I'm sorry, it's because the servant girl didn't hold it steady, you didn't burn it."

The servant girl's anxious expression did not seem to be fake, but her body leaned forward slightly. Shao Shusheng could smell the dark fragrance on her body, and he couldn't help but blush.

"Tsk tsk." Mr. Wei said teasingly as he folded the fan, "What I said at the beginning, look, has it come true?"

The other scholars in the yard looked a little complicated.

After the three dandies made such an analysis that day, Shao Shusheng usually took a few more glances at the apricot maid, but in the end the girl focused on him.

"Yesterday, I fell down on Brother Shao, and today I just poured tea, what next..."

Scholars are thin-skinned and dare not think about it.

The clothes in summer are already thin, but when the tea was poured on them, the inside was completely wet, and the maid said, "I will serve you to change your clothes."

"Changing clothes——" Mr. Zheng dragged on for a long time, and Mr. Feng continued, "Go, let's take a little longer."

"Throw yourself in your arms, don't want it for nothing." Mr. Wei squeezed his eyes.

"Don't, don't talk nonsense." Shao Shusheng stammered, "You always have to change your clothes when they get wet. I don't mean to be abrupt."

"Oh, I'm afraid His Highness will be angry when he comes back."

"Brother Shao, think about what Mr. said, don't mess around."

A few scholars reminded them, and they disagreed quite a lot in their words. Scholar Shao was thin-skinned. He looked at the maidservant in front of him and said, "You'd better go on your own, so you don't have to bother the girl."

After he finished speaking, he walked into the house without daring to look back.

The maid pursed her lips and stood there as if she didn't know what to do, but when she saw a big maid opposite her winking, she thought about it and chased after her.

Several people saw it and gave each other a wink.

Shao Shusheng changed his clothes. Although the door was closed, he could enter as soon as he pushed.

After the maid walked in, she closed the door.

After a while, she walked out of the room with her head down, and left in a hurry, but her flushed cheeks could still be seen inadvertently.

These maidservants were specially selected for a very clear purpose, and it was also the Lu family's usual method of wooing people, beauty tricks.

Don't look at scholars, they are like gentlemen, but in the eyes of experts, the more they look at decent people, the easier it is to seduce them, such as this Shao scholar.

On the contrary, it was not easy for the three high-ranking young masters who had seen Qianfan all the time.

The master is in a hurry, and wants to take down His Royal Highness's subordinates as much as possible.

But three days have passed, and there has been some progress, but only this maid.

After she came back, the nurse in charge asked, "Yuexiang, what's the matter?"

Yuexiang blushed and shook her head, "Mama, the servant is useless, he didn't touch me."

"Heh, these scholars are itching in their hearts but they dare not do anything. If you work harder, you must take him down."

Yuexiang replied, "Yes."

"The rest must be done as soon as possible!"

The maidservants dared not refuse, and when Mammy left, some people envied Yuexiang's good luck.

They had been in contact for three days, and only this Shao Shusheng dared to glance at the maidservant, if he could take advantage of it, the rest ignored them at all.

Yue Xiang lowered her eyes and smiled slightly, but said nothing.

However, Shao Shusheng, who had changed his clothes, was dragged into the room by others to criticize him.

"How about it, don't look at the rules, but this guy who fell and poured tea, didn't he try his best to seduce you? What did you do just now, did you not kiss me?" Mr. Feng supported him with an elbow.

"Beauty trick! If we are so bewitched, it's like being dragged into a boat of thieves. As His Royal Highness belongs to the Lu family, think about how much trouble it will cause Your Highness." Shu Yu shook his head and sighed.

"Yeah, the next step is to blow the pillow and find out the news."

"Brother Shao, I, we have to hold on to it!"

This is what you said and what I said, but Shao Shusheng frowned and didn't think about it here.

"Brother Shao, tell me something! You won't be really fascinated, will you?" Mr. Wei waved his hands in front of his eyes.

Shao Shusheng took his hand away, then spread his hand with a strange expression and said, "Look."

"what is this?"

I saw a small note in Shao Shusheng's hand, it was really small.

Fang Jun picked it up and spread it out, and said, "Is there a way out in the Chunfang Pavilion?"

"Brother Fang, there is another word behind it." Someone reminded.

Fang Jun turned around and saw the word "Lu".

Several people fell silent immediately, and looked at Shao Shusheng one after another.

"I said, besides changing clothes, what are you two doing inside?" Mr. Zheng asked.

Shao Shusheng rolled up his sleeves, and said: "I didn't do anything, and after closing the door, she stuffed me with this little note and said to leave it to His Highness. After a while, she squeezed her face twice, and then hung down The head went out, just like you saw."

"Give it to His Highness?" You Ziqing frowned.

Shao Shusheng thought about it and said, "I'm thinking that this Yuexiang girl might not be from the Lu family."

He Xichao got out of the carriage with Xiao Hong, and his mood was settled.

Cheng Enhou secretly looked at Xiao Hong several times, seeing that he was only frowning, restless, but not furious, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

In the flower hall, ice basins are placed around, bringing a refreshing coolness.

The maidservant poured the spring tea, and the tangy aroma was overflowing, refreshing, and the dullness and depression were taken away unconsciously when she calmed down.

"Your Highness, I really offended you just now. I am here to make up for Your Highness, and I hope His Highness will forgive you." Cheng Enhou stood up and bowed deeply respectfully, which was completely different from the strength in Shuizhuang.

But Xiao Hong was not as easy to talk as in the past, and said coldly: "Master Lv really deserves to be a master, such a big hand, playing with thousands of lives in Kuiliang County in applause, this king really doesn't know what to do. Praising Hou Ye that you are a big event, or cursing you as vicious and cold-blooded."

"Your Highness deserves to be scolded. It's just that the Lu family has a large family business. If you want to maintain its prosperity, there are some things that you can't help yourself."

Xiao Hong almost laughed angrily. The prosperity of the family comes from plundering others?Where is such a big face.

Probably knowing what Xiao Hong was thinking, Cheng Enhou said: "Once done, it is difficult to change. This old man has many merits and demerits in his heart. In the future, he will go to the eighteenth level of hell, and there is no objection."

"Your Majesty's words are really beyond reproach."

"Not to mention whether this matter is right or wrong, since His Highness came to control the water, he must already know how to deal with it. My Lu family is also willing to follow His Highness's arrangement, so as to completely eliminate the Songjiang flood and let His Highness show his talents in front of the Emperor. This flood has experienced time. In the past ten years, His Highness's contribution this time is enough to make the Emperor look at him differently and overwhelm many princes." Cheng Enhou said this, looked at Xiao Hong with burning eyes, and then asked with a smile, "I just don't know if Your Highness has such sincerity?"

However, Xiao Hong played with the puller on his thumb, but lowered his eyes and remained silent.

The atmosphere became stagnant for a while.

Lu Xueliang sat under Cheng Enhou, and the long silence made him anxious, but Mr. Lang, who was standing beside Cheng Enhou, shook his head at him.

At this time, the test is this character.

Suddenly there was only the sound of a teacup being placed on the high table, and He Xichao asked, "What kindness does Hou Ye want from His Highness?"

As soon as He Xichao said these words, the almost deadlocked atmosphere suddenly slowed down again.

After all, he is only 15 years old, no matter how he claims to be a genius, he is not stable enough.

Xiao Hong glanced at He Xichao, but did not stop him.

Cheng Enhou said with a smile: "There are not many people in Kuiliang County, but there are still a few small villages, which is also a troublesome matter. Once some things are done, they must be thorough. I wonder if His Highness is willing to help?"

Xiao Hong sneered after hearing this, "Master Hou is so calculating, this is forcing him to be his own!"

Marquis Chengen laughed out loud when he heard this, "Haha, isn't Your Highness one of your own? Since the fifth girl reached Jiji, there has been an endless stream of suitors, and she refused them all, but she was waiting for His Highness's beloved, This is a marriage destined by heaven, isn't Your Highness looking forward to it?"

When Miss Lu Wu was mentioned, Xiao Hong stopped talking immediately.

"Your Highness, as long as this is accomplished, all members of my Lu family will look forward to His Highness. I heard that Your Highness is short of money, and I am really sad. Jiangzhou is a land of abundance. Once there is no flood in Kuiliang County, there will only be more fertile land than Luozi County. Quite a lot, this is a huge granary, and there is no need to hand over a single cent to the national treasury to honor His Highness." Cheng Enhou watched Xiao Hong and said slowly, "The refugees in Kuiliang County are now settled by my Lu family, and they are always looking forward to being able to Returning to the hometown, once the refugees return to the hometown, it will be another great achievement in front of the emperor, wouldn't it be beautiful to go down from the hatchback?"

The beauty is in her arms, the treasury is in hand, and she has made great contributions, just waiting for the emperor to reward her...

"Nine years ago, you lost the Crown Prince position. When you return to Beijing this time, why shouldn't the emperor refuse to be named the Crown Prince?"

Cheng Enhou's voice fell slowly, Xiao Hong's pupils shrank suddenly, and his breathing became short of breath.

He looked at Cheng Enhou, moved his lips slightly, as if he wanted to speak, but heard He Xichao ask again: "If His Highness can't do it, what is Cheng Enhou's plan?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Hong's eager eagerness was withdrawn in an instant, as if his reason had returned.

"That's right, what if the king doesn't want to?"
