and leave

When Lu Yiqing and Shen Wangshu arrived at Prince Xiang's Mansion, it was not too late, but there were already a lot of people outside Prince Xiang's Mansion.

Because it was the first time to go out, Lu Yiqing sat by the car window and never put down the curtain, and Shen Wangshu ignored her when he saw her.So the carriage drove all the way, and Lu Yiqing also saw the prosperity of Chang'an City, until the carriage drove into the alley where Prince Xiang's Mansion was located, the original tranquility was broken, and she was startled by the suddenly crowded flow of people and cars.

Lu Yiqing almost thought that she saw a highway with traffic jams on the National Day, and she couldn't help turning her head to Shen Wangshu and sighed: "This Prince Xiang's mansion seems to have an extraordinary status in Beijing, and there are so many people here for the princess's birthday banquet." .”

Shen Wangshu also glanced out of the carriage when he heard the words, and said, "It's just the female relatives."

Today is not Xiu Mu, officials with serious official positions in the court are still busy in the government office at the moment, so naturally they cannot come to congratulate.However, letting the family members come to congratulate each other is actually showing the attitude of each family.Don't look at Shen Wangshu's calm face, but in fact his heart is not peaceful at all--the Prince Xiang's mansion has not been growing in a day or two, but is it really a good thing to be surrounded by flowers like this?

Thinking of this, a trace of self-mockery flashed in Shen Wangshu's eyes.She is here blindly worrying about the colorful flowers in Prince Xiang's Mansion, and she doesn't know that it is because of such colorful flowers that she and the Lu family are forced to have nowhere to go...

It's a pity that Lu Yiqing didn't know these things at this time. She heard Shen Wangshu say that all the women who came here today were female relatives, and she was a little worried for a while: "Well, so, can I stay by your side for a while?"

She was afraid that all the guests would be female guests, and there would be too few male guests, and she would be unable to avoid being bumped into by King Xiang.

Shen Wangshu saw through her thoughts at a glance, laughed inexplicably, and then persuaded: "Ah Qing, you don't have to worry too much. When I say female family members, I mean that the head mothers of each family came to congratulate, but other than that, each family also There must be a nephew who has not entered the court to congratulate. King Xiang has always come to be a corporal, seeing so many young talents, I think he didn't have much time to find you."

After listening to Shen Wangshu's description of King Xiang, Lu Yiqing didn't feel at ease, instead, his brows twitched, and he vaguely sensed the danger.But she didn't even see anyone at the moment, and she couldn't say anything, so she just nodded obediently and suppressed her thoughts.

The congestion outside Prince Xiang's mansion was severe, but the servants of the palace handled it well, and the people who came to congratulate were quickly received and led into the mansion, so although the carriages moved slowly, they did not stop.After a while, the Lu family's carriage also arrived at the gate of the Wangfu and stopped slowly.

Lu Yiqing got out of the car first, then turned around habitually and helped Shen Wangshu down.

It wasn't until Shen Wangshuan stood beside her steadily that Lu Yiqing realized what he had done, and his mood was complicated for a moment.It's not that she doesn't want to give up the strength to help, it's just that the body's instincts are terrible—unless she meets an old man, she didn't have the habit of helping people get out of the car, but now she can do it with ease for Shen Wangshu, not only helping people safely After she got down, she also wanted to help her straighten her clothes.

Thinking this way, Lu Yiqing actually did this, she bent down and straightened Shen Wangshu's slightly wrinkled skirt.She took care of her daughter-in-law properly, she took it for granted, and the people around her seemed to take it for granted.

The driver who was driving the carriage didn't find it strange, and the servant of the palace who received him at the door seemed to be used to it too.

After the two had sorted out their images, the servant of the palace stepped forward and saluted the two of them: "Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, you two are here. My lord and concubine have been in the mansion for a long time."

After all, Shen Wangshu and Princess Xiang are also sisters, so it is not uncommon for them to meet before the banquet.

Naturally, Lu Yiqing still had some scruples when he was outside. Hearing this, he first glanced at Shen Wangshu, and then presented the gift list, obediently, without saying anything.On the contrary, Shen Wangshu agreed, and the two of them followed the servant into Prince Xiang's mansion.

But before stepping into Prince Xiang's Mansion, in the noisy environment, occasionally a few words from the surroundings reached Lu Yiqing's ears.It's not a good word, gossip is a pity that Shen Wangshu was married, it is said that Shen's daughter married her, a businessman, it is really hard to think about it, even Prince Xiang's mansion has such unworthy relatives.

Lu Yiqing was very depressed.She had a brief understanding of the Lu family's family property two days ago, and found that it was a wealth that the young couple would spend their whole life on a golden mountain.However, the status of ancient merchants was so low, and money and power were incomparable, so what could she say?

Feeling depressed for no reason, I don't know if it was because she was really influenced by the words of others, or if it was the emotion left by the original owner.

At this moment, Shen Wangshu seemed to notice something, and took her hand calmly.There was a slight warmth coming from the hands they were holding, even though holding hands would become a habit these few days, Lu Yiqing's heart could not help but feel sweet and warm at the same time.

Lu Yiqing, who was in a better mood, bent her lips and realized another thing - she finally, finally knew that her daughter-in-law's surname was Shen!God knows that she has asked people around her everything these days, so why wouldn't she ask her daughter-in-law's name? !

****************************************************************************

Lu Yiqing and Shen Wangshu were brought by the young servants to the apse of Prince Xiang's Mansion. There was a man and a woman in the hall, obviously they had been waiting for a long time.

The appearance of the man was 27, wearing a gold crown and a black robe, with a handsome face as sharp as a knife.The woman is a few years younger, with golden hairpins waving in her hair, embroidered and luxurious clothes, and a bright and eye-catching face. She looks like a wealthy peony flower.If you take a closer look, you can find that she and Shen Wangshu are somewhat similar in eyebrows and eyes.

There is no doubt that these two people are King Xiang and Princess Xiang, and they are both romantic figures in appearance.

Lu Yiqing was a little surprised at the first glance, but his eyes couldn't help but linger on the faces of the two of them for an extra moment.Fortunately, she still knew where she was and who she was facing, so she looked away after this startling glance.

Seeing the rightful lord, who is still a noble one, the young couple first saluted and said hello to the two of them, and then specially congratulated the princess on her birthday.

Princess Xiang's expression was indifferent, although she and Shen Wangshu were sisters, they couldn't tell how close they were.Even because of the current disparity in status between the two parties, there was still some contempt in the air, so they only responded casually when they heard the words, without looking at the two of them more.

On the contrary, King Xiang sat at the head, with a dignified and unspeakable demeanor.After receiving the ceremony from the two, his eyes only glanced at Lu Yiqing, but stayed on Shen Wangshu for a moment: "Dalang and Ashu don't need to be too polite. Today is the princess's birthday. We are sisters with Ah Shu Nai, so let's talk about it as family members, there is really no need to be cautious."

Lu Yiqing almost couldn't control his expression for a moment after hearing this, not to mention the hypocrisy of King Xiang's words after he received the gift, even the title is hard to describe--"Da Lang" or something, just heard it before, Now being called by others, Lu Yiqing refuses with all her heart.And her daughter-in-law was called "Ashu", she almost couldn't help laughing before she thought about how close this title was.

For a moment, Lu Yiqing's thoughts diverged a bit, and she remembered her daughter-in-law's surname again.Her surname is Shen, and if someone uses her surname as a nickname, it will be "A Shen"... Either "Uncle" or "Aunt", her daughter-in-law is really taking advantage of this name.

Lu Yiqing lost his mind inexplicably, and Shen Wangshu naturally couldn't let King Xiang ignore him, so he had to initiate a conversation by himself.

King Xiang didn't blame him either, he glanced at Lu Yiqing, even smiled and asked the two to sit down, and then chatted with Shen Wangshu enthusiastically.The two seemed to be chatting speculatively, the princess interrupted several times, but was finally picked up by King Xiang.

Gradually, King Xiang's gaze on Shen Wangshu changed a little, it was naked|naked|naked aggressive gaze.

Shen Wangshu kept his eyes down all the time, occasionally raised his eyes but did not look at King Xiang.Occasionally, she glanced at Princess Xiang, and saw that her hands hidden in her sleeves seemed to be twisted together, and the smile on her face became more and more unbearable.

Lu Yiqing had already regained consciousness at this time, but she couldn't handle the topic of King Xiang and others, and she didn't want to expose her "ignorance" in front of outsiders and lose face, so she simply didn't open her mouth.But she didn't say a word, but observed silently, taking in everything - looking at King Xiang's eyes, her heart skipped a beat, as if she understood something.

A few days after the daughter-in-law got it, someone's hoe was about to fall in the corner of her wall, and the person wielding the hoe was her daughter-in-law's own brother-in-law!

Lu Yiqing's mood at the moment is beyond incredible, it's even like a bolt from the blue is not enough to describe.She didn't know why she was so angry, she just wanted to step forward to pull Shen Wangshu up and leave, never to have any contact with Prince Xiang's Mansion again.

But before she could act, Lu Yiqing glanced at her inadvertently, but found that the concubine's face was ugly, and she didn't dare to say anything to King Xiang, on the contrary, she glared at Shen Wangshu frequently.

What's the point?You don't dare to take care of your own prince and husband, but you come to blame your married sister?

Lu Yiqing is a person who protects his weaknesses, not to mention she doesn't think it's wrong for Shen Wangshu to be looked at by others, so her complexion becomes even more ugly.On the other hand, King Xiang acted as if he couldn't read people's faces, or he didn't care about Lu Yiqing at all: "Da Lang seems to have something to say?"

Because of King Xiang's inquiry, the hall suddenly fell silent, and the eyes of the three also fell on Lu Yiqing.Lu Yiqing was angry, she opened her mouth and was about to curse, but she saw Shen Wangshu beside her frowning slightly and shaking her head.

Lu Yiqing actually understands that no matter how rich the Lu family is, people would not fight with officials in this ancient time, not to mention that this prince in front of him is a nobleman.The Lu family can't afford to offend Prince Xiang's mansion, and she can't offend King Xiang, so they can only choose to swallow their anger: "I just want to remind Your Highness and Princess that it's getting late, and the outside guests should have almost arrived. Move to?"

Hearing this, King Xiang glanced at her with a smile that was not a smile, and nodded immediately: "Da Lang is right. It's all because I had such a good time chatting with Ashu that I forgot the time, and now I can only talk about it next time." gone."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Wangshu, his frivolous eyes seemed to have some deep meaning.

Lu Yiqing felt the veins on his forehead twitch, and he really hated that he had to ignore him and drag him away.Fortunately, before her patience ran out, King Xiang finally left, taking his concubine with him, and walked away swaggeringly.

As soon as the people left, Lu Yiqing held his breath and was wronged again. When he looked at Shen Wangshu, his eye circles were almost red: "Madam, the presents are all given away, how about we go back?"

Shen Wangshu sighed, then patted Lu Yiqing's head again, but did not speak.
