"Lu Yuan, don't be confused."

Feng Yuerong took a step forward, looked at Huo Zhi, and couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes, "Who are you, why are you in the imperial garden?"

"I was bored in the yard, so I came out for a walk."

The maid who supported Feng Yuerong raised her brows, "Presumptuous, you don't use the honorific title when you see the empress? Hurry up and kneel down!"

"So you are the queen?" Huo Zhi looked at Feng Yuerong with some curiosity, "It really is the posture of sinking fish and wild goose, so beautiful."

Feng Yuerong is usually used to hearing compliments from servants and concubines, but today when she hears it from Huo Zhi's mouth, she feels something different, as if others' words are not as earnest as his one sentence.Feng Yuerong waved her hand to the maid, and asked softly, "I have never seen you in the palace, but which lord's young master strayed into the place?"

Huo Zhi smiled and shook his head, "No, I'm just a commoner, I was rude just now, I've seen the empress."

It was only at this point in the conversation that Lu Yuan finally came to his senses. He stared at Huo Zhi in a daze, "Master, sir?"

"I see that you are really confused." Feng Yuerong glanced at Lu Yuan helplessly, "How can you recognize this young master as a woman?"

"My son..."

Lu Yuan blushed. He raised his eyes to meet the smile on Huo Zhi's face. He lowered his head as if he had been stabbed. It was because of Huo Zhi's look at him and the words he said to him just now.

Even if it is a man, he is more beautiful than all the women he has ever seen, Lu Yuan thought secretly.

"It doesn't matter," Huo Zhi said, "It's not a big deal, then I'll go first, so I won't disturb the empress and the prince."

Anyway, the purpose of his trip was achieved, Huo Zhi's gaze paused on Lu Yuan, and then he nodded lightly, but Lu Yuan seemed to be avoiding him, and didn't look up.

When Huo Zhi's figure really disappeared in front of his eyes, Lu Yuan murmured, "Why do I always feel that I saw a fairy just now?"

"You, but that son is indeed handsome," Feng Yuerong shook her head, "I don't know why he is in the imperial garden, and he doesn't look like a commoner. It should be that the son of some adult in the court went to the wrong place and didn't want to Reveal your identity."

The maid said, "Your Majesty, you are too soft-tempered. What if he is a petty thief, you just let him go?"

"Shuiyue, don't be unreasonable," Feng Yuerong walked into the pavilion, and sat inside with Lu Yuan, "That young master looks wealthy, and his words and deeds are frank, how can he casually slander a person's innocence?"

"Your servant is wrong, Madam, don't take it to heart." Shuiyue saluted, "Your servant, go to the imperial dining room to get some refreshments."

Feng Yuerong was not angry at first, she hummed lightly and asked Lu Yuan, "Yuan'er, what do you want to eat?"

Lu Yuan was still staring at the belt in his hand, but he didn't even hear what Feng Yuerong asked.It's a pity that he didn't ask the fairy's name or where his home is... Lu Yuan sighed a little disappointed, so he could only carefully fold the belt and hide it in the sleeve.

"You went out today?"

"The emperor's news is really well-informed."

Lu Rongjue smiled coldly, "I said before, you can't step out of the mansion without my order."

He was indeed a little angry because Huo Zhi disobeyed his orders.But this anger was not too great, it was just enough for him to put on such a bluffing look, he wanted to hear how Huo Zhi would explain it.

Huo Zhi poured tea for him slowly, "Is the emperor angry? I obviously greeted you yesterday, so it's not like I went out without authorization."

"You are still reasonable, when did I say that you are allowed to go out in the daytime?"

"You said 'Let me think about it'." Huo Zhi suppressed his voice to imitate Lu Rongjue's appearance at that time, "Anyway, you are already thinking about it, so you are not far from agreeing, why bother?"

He said this like a child imitating an adult's voice, Lu Rongjue was amused in his heart, but his face was still serious, "It's two different things, do you think I'm stupid?"

"Isn't it good for the emperor to pretend to be stupid?" Huo Zhi pursed his lips and smiled, and handed the porcelain cup in his hand to Lu Rongjue, "Come, have a sip of tea to calm down."

"You are the first person who dares to make me pretend to be stupid."

Lu Rongjue glanced lowly over the porcelain cup in Huo Zhi's hand, and stayed more on Huo Zhi's white and round fingers. He snorted softly, then took the porcelain cup calmly, and took a sip.

"This tea is a bit off." Lu Rongjue frowned, "How did you make it?"

Huo Zhi also took a sip, "Aren't these all given by the emperor? I think the taste is not bad."

Lu Rongjue flicked his teacup, and after a while, he smiled softly, "If I didn't know your temperament, I really thought you were running on me."

Huo Zhi was indeed trying to run on Lu Rongjue, but he opened a pair of innocent and beautiful eyes, just looking at it made people feel soft and angry.

"Forget it, is it still a habit to live here?"

"A habit is a habit, it's just a little lonely."

"Isn't it enough for me to visit you occasionally?"

Huo Zhi propped his chin, and said lazily, "I ran into the empress and the prince in the imperial garden today."

Lu Rongjue paused abruptly, "Empress?"

"No, the empress is really beautiful and dignified, much better than the Concubine Zhuang that day."

"What did you talk about?" A dark light flashed in Lu Rongjue's eyes, and he asked slowly.

"It's nothing. She asked me if I was the son of some lord. I didn't know how to explain it, so I just said yes."

"Your little abacus is really good."

Lu Rongjue glanced over, making Huo Zhi's expression hard to hang on, he stretched out his hand to pinch the corner of Lu Rongjue's clothes, and asked softly, "Did I say something wrong?"

Lu Rongjue stared at him quietly for a moment, then hooked the corners of his lips, "No, you're right."

Huo Zhi just laughed, "That's good, the Empress is kind-hearted, if I have the chance, I would like to see her again."

Lu Rongjue took a sip of tea, "She has a good temper, she is like that with everyone."

After chatting intermittently for a while, it was time for Lu Rongjue to leave.

At this time, Huo Zhi already knew how to get up and straighten his cloak. Lu Rongjue looked at his delicate and beautiful face, put a hand on Huo Zhi's waist, leaned slightly and whispered in his ear, "Sometimes , I think you are smarter than humans."

Huo Zhi gave him a non-destructive look, "I am a human being."

"Okay, that's what you said," Lu Rongjue laughed softly, "Then are you satisfied with that identity?"

"What identity."

"The son of the court minister, he has been living with his relatives outside the capital since he was a child, and he only returned to his home recently. He is eighteen this year and his surname is Huo Mingzhi."

Huo Zhi raised the corner of his mouth calmly, "It's fine if the emperor thinks it's good."

"Aren't you laughing in your heart?" Lu Rongjue squeezed the soft flesh on Huo Zhi's waist, his eyes darkened, "Since I have given you benefits, shouldn't you return something to me?"

"Then owe the emperor first, and wait for another day..."

Huo Zhi raised his neck slightly, his lips stopped when they were about to touch Lu Rongjue's face, and turned into a charming smile, "I'll return it to the emperor together."

Lu Rongjue's heart trembled slightly, and he said, "Remember your promise, I never trade at a loss."
