Princess Jinyang of the Tang Dynasty

Wu Cairen then asked Wei Wanshu how she was doing recently.

"It's not bad, except for a cousin who came to the house and made a lot of noise, life is as usual," Wei Wanshu paused, and then said to Wu Cairen, "I have already told my father about your adoptive father for you, and persuaded him The old man spent a lot of time on me, so I asked my elder brother to help me to say a few words. Two days ago, he ordered someone to check his conduct. Therefore, I should recommend it to Shushu tomorrow."

Wu Cairen heard such accurate words, he was very grateful, and thanked Wei Shuyu.

"It's not easy to see you taking so much effort to help him. The relationship between you and your adoptive father is really good." Wei Wanshu sighed.

"Father left early, and my mother is a stepmother who never gave birth to a son for the Wu family. The elder brothers treated my mother and my sisters very harshly. Now only the adoptive father takes pity on us and takes care of us all the time. Naturally, I want to be grateful and repay."

"How about I asked you to inquire about it?" Wei Wanshu asked.

"He likes playing the piano and listening to people playing the piano, but he doesn't seem to like ladies who follow too many rules and etiquette, but those little girls who have no rules, carefree and innocent, who attract him the most Pay attention." Wu Cai said humanely.

"Got it, he doesn't like being tied up."

"A man, what kind of woman do you like to be with the most? The one that can make him worry-free and forget his troubles, and it's best to be considerate and considerate to him. Don't look at just a few points, it's easy to say , but it is not easy to do it, if you really do it, he will miss you even if you don't see him for a few months." Wu Cairen immediately whispered something to Wei Wanshu.

Wei Wanshu nodded, took Wu Cairen's hand and thanked her briefly, and immediately said goodbye to her.

After Wei Wanshu left the latrine for a long time, Wu Cairen came out and looked around, seeing that there was no one there, he left openly.

When Zuo Qingmei led people to follow Wei Wanshu earlier, she felt that something was wrong when she came out of Xunfeng Palace, so she went to the latrine, which was a reasonable place to go.Zuo Qingmei left someone to guard her after she left, in case of accidents, but she didn't expect to find someone to guard her.

Zuo Qingmei immediately reported to Li Mingda that Wei Wanshu and Wu Cairen shared the same hut.

"A martial artist again."

Li Mingda frowned, sat up from the bed, and drank the calming soup that Biyun had just brought.It is difficult for her to sleep during the day, the sound is too loud, so she must drink calming soup before taking a nap during the day.

"Did you hear what they said?" Li Mingda asked Zuo Qingmei after putting down the bowl.

Zuo Qingmei shook her head.

"This martial artist has a adoptive father, do you know that?" Li Mingda said.

Zuo Qingmei shook her head again, "There are so many empresses and concubines, the servant girl has not paid much attention to Wu Cairen, so she doesn't know much about him."

"Look it up, don't startle the snake."

Zuo Qingmei agreed and went out.After Li Mingda woke up, Zuo Qingmei had already found out that she was waiting outside the house.

Li Mingda called her in, asked her to sit down and rest, and drink some grape juice by the way.

"His adoptive father is called Chu Mingyi, who is now a member of the Ministry of Officials, Wai Lang, and had a close relationship with Wu Cairen's father. It is said that shortly after Wu Cairen was born, he suffered from an illness. Chu Mingyi hired a doctor to help treat him. Well, because of this, I became her adoptive father."

Zuo Qingmei then told Li Mingda that Wu Cairen's mother was the stepmother, and now that the old man of the Wu family has left and the eldest son is in charge, she has no status in the Wu family and is not respected.

"I see."

Li Mingda turned to ponder, this Wei Wanshu and Wu Cairen have known each other for a long time, so it is impossible for them to meet by such a coincidence in a remote place like a hut.The two of them probably sent a message a long time ago, discussing where to meet.

No matter what purpose Wei Wanshu had, that Wu Cairen's purpose was clear, that is, she hoped that someone could help her adoptive father get promoted.After all, this promotion in the imperial court cannot be done by one person alone. If she first passed Xiao Cairen to order Xiao Yu to agree to it, and then passed Wei Wanshu to order Wei Zheng to recommend it.With the help of these two power ministers, Chu Mingyi's promotion is almost settled.This is a clever idea and a good calculation.

But whether things are as she expected, she still needs to find an opportunity to meet Wei Zheng and test it out with him.

Zuo Qingmei saw that the princess was deep in thought and said nothing, guessing that she had something on her mind, she hurriedly asked the princess if she noticed Wei Wanshu's restlessness.

"The maid looks at her as a scheming woman, not quite the same as a girl of the same age."

"There are smart people and stupid people. There are those who are deep in the city and those who are simple and shallow. I can't say which one is bad. They just have different temperaments. As long as she doesn't do things that hurt nature, don't mess around in the palace, and don't cause trouble for everyone, We don't have to judge what kind of woman she is." After Li Mingda finished speaking, he stared at Zuo Qingmei, "Do you understand what I mean?"

Zuo Qingmei promised to understand, and immediately promised that she would send someone to keep an eye on Wei Wanshu and Zhou Xiaohe today.If the two are just messing around in private and it doesn't affect the overall situation, she will not interfere.But if something scandalous happens, she will take someone immediately and deal with it secretly.

Li Mingda nodded, that's exactly what she meant, and told Zuo Qingmei to be careful.

Zuo Qingmei hurriedly agreed, and immediately went to instruct her subordinates.We must see the clues, and then appear in time when there is something conclusive.This Wei Wanshu's father is Wei Zheng, so it is not easy to offend her.

It was night, both sides of the South China Sea and the West Sea were brightly lit, and rows of lanterns were hung. Li Shimin and his ministers took a boat to play in the South China Sea Lake, enjoying the scenery and writing impromptu poems.Concubine Wei, Concubine De, and Concubine Xian took all the noble ladies to hold banquets and cruise along the West Sea.The two sides of the lake have become a playground for children of aristocratic families and young ladies.Now the bank should also be called "Qingfeng", and some rice and sorghum crops were piled up, just to let these young noble children have a look at what the grain looked like.

The idea of ​​placing the crops was Li Shimin's temporary decision.At noon, a banquet was given to all the officials in Nanhai Pool, and when the banquet was over, Li Shimin got a report from Fang Qirui, and learned that Sizi's today's event was about harvest and farming, and he had passed Yuchi Baoqi and several other children in the school examination.The trouble caused those originally talented sons of aristocratic families to encounter difficulties. From this, Li Shimin thought that these rich and noble children lack knowledge and experience, so they should be reminded of bitterness and sweetness.

Li Shimin then sent Fang Qirui to get some crops to display on the shore, so that the younger generation who participated in the celebration feast only knew how to play, and knew what sorghum, corn, and flour looked like.Even if you come from a wealthy family and have no worries about food and clothing, you must not forget that "agriculture" is the foundation of the country.

After these crops were displayed on the shore, it really attracted the attention of many disciples. Many people took the ears of wheat and studied them. They were curious about how to grind the flour.When someone knows something, everyone gathers together to listen.Then everyone lamented that farming is not easy and we must cherish food.But there are also ignorant and charming girls who play together in twos and threes, grabbing sorghum grains and throwing them around while chatting, only to be spotted by Princess Jinyang who came after them.

Li Mingda didn't speak out against them in public, but sent his maid to warn them privately.The young ladies were ashamed of the quarrel, and they all honestly apologized and put the sorghum back.Then they followed the crowd to greet Princess Jinyang.

"Today is a feast for the harvest. The sage gathered everyone here. Apart from celebrating the harvest, he also intended to let everyone understand how hard-earned the rice is. Even if you are rich and honored, you shouldn't waste the food."

Li Mingda finished his point and didn't say anything more.After sending everyone away, she sat down and drank two sips of fruit juice.At this time, Li Mingda heard someone whispering that Fang Dalang was coming.Li Mingda was a little puzzled, followed his gaze and saw Fang Yizhi.

After Fang Yi saw Concubine Wei and the others, he saw Li Mingda again, and Li Bi took a special look at her.

Li Mingda looked back at him and blinked to express her doubts.At this time, there was a "bang" on the other side of the river, and then something jumped into the sky, and then sparks burst out, spraying in all directions.But the sparks were fleeting in the blink of an eye, and then "boom" and "boom" came again, and then there were more and more.

Concubine Wei and the others stood up and walked to the river side by hand, looking up curiously to appreciate the sparks blooming in the sky.

"What is this?" Li Mingda couldn't help sighing casually as he smelled the burning smell of something still in the air.

"Fireworks were developed by Li Tian from Liuyang. They were originally used to drive away evil spirits. A few days ago, Consort Du came back from Liuyang. He must have brought them back." Fang Yizhi guessed.

At this time, the fireworks in the night sky are lit up again, and every time they bloom, the light they emit is reflected on the faces of the viewers under the night sky.

Li Mingda looked at the brilliant fireworks in the sky and smiled happily. She could see it more clearly than ordinary people, so she also felt that it was more beautiful.

Everyone was looking up at the fireworks, but Fang Yizhi just tilted his head.Mo pupils are darker than the night, giving off a compelling brilliance, he only has one person in his eyes, looking at each other silently, but it is better than everything else.

Li Mingda didn't hold back his smile, and then he felt that someone was looking at her, so he turned his head to look at her, but he didn't see anyone looking at her in the crowd, everyone was watching the fireworks with great interest.

Fang Yizhi was clearly by her side just now, but now he has disappeared.

Princess Hengshan Li Hui'an jumped up and down to hold Li Mingda's hand. When the fireworks started again, she hurriedly reminded Li Mingda to watch.

Li Mingda randomly searched around in the crowd, but he couldn't find Fang Yizhi, and was troubled by Li Hui'an, so he had to drag her forward, and went to the pavilion in the lake to see what she wanted.

In about less than half a quarter, the fireworks stopped.Everyone lamented its beauty, and lamented that it disappeared too quickly, just like a flash in the pan.However, some people said at this time that it is easier for people to remember and recall its beauty because it disappears quickly.

Li Mingda saw Concubine Wei and others also came to sit in the gazebo, but regardless of what they were talking about about fireworks, Li Mingda searched the crowd with all his strength, but he still couldn't find Fang Yizhi.

"What's the matter, son, you look a little dazed, but you're not feeling well?" Concubine De noticed Li Mingda's distraction, and hurriedly asked.

Li Mingda smiled and shook his head, "Look where my good sister is."

"Good sister?" Concubine De hurriedly asked who the princess' good sister was.

"I will!" Li Hui'an hurriedly said bravely, and then grabbed Li Mingda's arm tightly and refused to let go.

Concubine Wei, Concubine De and the others suddenly laughed, "Good sisters are true, but you are not the one your nineteenth sister is looking for."

"How do you know it's not me?"

"Because you are right beside her, there is no need to look for her at all."

Li Hui'an said "Oh", then tilted her head and looked up at Li Mingda, asking her who she was looking for and who else was her sister.

"Nineteenth Sister's sister is Hui'an's sister. Call her quickly and let's get acquainted." Li Hui'an said.

Princess Changshan Li Yumin also got up from Concubine De and went to join them in the fun, "Count me in!"

Concubine De hurriedly told Li Yumin not to be naughty.She was ordered by the Holy Order to take care of Princess Changshan earlier, which just filled her previous emptiness and boredom, so she cherished Li Yumin as if she was her own.But the pampered concubine De still hopes that Li Yumin will come out better, preferably like Princess Jinyang, not as fluffy as she is now.

Li Yumin giggled at Concubine De, but she still didn't change her faults, and leaned against Li Mingda rascally, asking who she recognized as a good sister.

"Cheng Lanru." Li Mingda said helplessly.

"Lan Ru, the name sounds better than mine, jealous." Li Yumin shook Li Mingda's shoulder, and asked her again, "The nineteenth sister, is it me or her?"

"Where's Hui'an?" Li Hui'an asked in a hurry.

"You two are the best, I like it the most, okay?" Li Mingda hurriedly grabbed the two younger sisters who were sticking to her, got up and said, "You guys are having fun here, I'll go for a walk."

"No, let's go together." Li Hui'an grabbed Li Mingda's hand.Li Yumin originally wanted to stay, but seeing Li Hui'an like this, he hurriedly agreed and held Li Mingda's other hand.

Li Mingda had no choice but to take the two younger sisters along.

Seeing this, Concubine Wei and the others sighed that Princess Jinyang was just lovable.Not only the saints and court officials praised and loved her, but she was also the most popular among the sisters.

"It's natural, the sage raised him personally, no one else can compare to it." Concubine De sighed softly.

Fang Fengzhu sat on the side and listened to them the whole time, without saying a word, just smiled and drank the juice in his hand, if he could not speak, he would not speak, and if he could not, he should not.Unless someone insists on her expressing her opinion, she doesn't want to talk too much, she always just wants to live a good life in peace.

After about a stick of incense, people over there reported that the sage and the ministers disembarked.

Concubine Wei and Concubine De hurriedly took all the noble ladies and their children to meet Li Shimin.

The grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling and other famous officials who disembarked with Li Shimin hurriedly greeted the three concubines.

Li Shimin smiled and said: "There are many people, so you don't have to stick to it, go to your own fun, and I don't need you to pay complicated salutes, so you are bound by the rules."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he went to rest in the pavilion with Concubine Wei, seeing that Concubine Yang was not there, and knowing that she was unwell, Li Shimin asked the imperial physician if he had seen her.

"During the day, Sizi persuaded her to go back, but she still didn't dare. Later, I went to ask her again, and she was not allowed to come, so I felt at ease. Doctor Gao checked the pulse and said that she had a heart disease. As a result, the lips are purple, and the blood is not good, so I need to take some medicines to see." Wei Guifei said.

Li Shimin frowned, "Why do you suddenly have a heart attack? It's thanks to Si's carefulness, and thanks to your hard work."

Concubine Wei hurriedly said that she didn't dare, saying that this was her due duty.

Li Shimin glanced at Concubine Wei, with some satisfaction in his eyes, and then searched for Li Mingda, "I said that something was missing when I got off the boat just now, what about Sizi and Hui'an?"

"Young man, let's play around." Concubine De said with a smile.

Li Shimin: "That's right, it's not like we are old and don't like to move. When they are lively, let them have a good time."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he glanced at the family members gathered over there, and suddenly became interested again, and asked Fang Qirui to call everyone who could be named. He wanted to test these children to see who was more talented in poetry and calligraphy. Some.

Not long after, Xiao Kai, Yuchi Baoqi and others were summoned to Li Shimin to accept the school examination.

Fang Xuanling immediately found out that Fang Yizhi was not there, and asked the third son Fang Yizhi, but he didn't know, and then he saw that Yuchi Baoqi and others were also there, but his son Fang Yizhi was missing.Fang Xuanling went to ask his wife Lu Shi.

"Shouldn't you get off the boat with him?" Lu Shi didn't see Fang Yizhi either.

"The ones on the boat were me, Changsun Wuji, and a few other senior officials, and Yizhi was on the boat with Prince Du and other young and noble family members, including the crown prince and the king of Wei. It was originally agreed that we would come here in the end to meet with the prince. You meet together, the prince's boat has already landed, why didn't he come to you?"

Mrs. Lu shook her head, looked at Li Chengqian, Li Tai and others who were talking and laughing over there, frowned and sighed: "It's weird."

Fang Baozhu and Cheng Lanru rushed over hand in hand, and approached Lu Shi with a smile, "I lost my way, but I didn't expect the palace people to get lost too. Fortunately, the fireworks were set off just now, otherwise it would be dark at night, and we would almost not be able to come back. .”

"Lost?" Lu Shi looked at Baozhu, "Didn't you two go to the lake to watch fish? How could you get lost?"

"The sisters in the same company said that there were cranes further north, so we joined in the fun to see it. Then we saw a big white bird flying into the forest. We all thought it was a crane, so we chased after it, but it disappeared. Only then did we realize that we were lost, and we were lucky enough to meet a passing palace lady, and asked her to take us away, but I didn’t expect that she could get lost with a lantern, causing us to go blind for a while, and finally set off fireworks here. The direction was wrong, so we hurried back." Fang Baozhu explained.

Fang Xuanling didn't think too much, just sighed: "Naughty, I'm lucky to have found it, otherwise it would have made me and your mother worry for nothing."

Lu Shi felt strange, narrowed his eyes, and asked Fang Baozhu: "The palace servants lost their way? How many palace servants are taking you away?"

"Just a court lady."

"What about people now?"

"We were a little excited when we saw the fireworks in the sky just now, so we ran towards the fireworks. When we left, we taught the maid to lead the wrong way. But when we came out, we didn't see her. Maybe we were scolded by us. I escaped while it was dark in the woods." Fang Baozhu said unhappily, and then secretly sighed with Lu Shi, "I really didn't expect that the maids in this palace don't have the rules of our maids."

"Don't talk nonsense, I still don't know what's going on." Lu Shi whispered to Fang Baozhu.

Fang Baozhu looked at her mother in bewilderment, not understanding why her mother had to reprimand herself for this.She pursed her mouth in grievance, moved her footsteps, and moved a little closer to her father Fang Xuanling.When Lu Shi stared at her again, Fang Baozhu hurriedly shrank behind her father.

Fang Xuanling quickly blocked her daughter's body, and glared at Lu Shi, "Well, what are you doing to your daughter?"

"I don't know the rules, talk nonsense regardless of the occasion, and I'm not fierce and still praise her? If you don't discipline her right now, just wait and see, she will definitely cause you big trouble in the future." Lu Shi looked around , while everyone was paying attention to the saint, he gave Fang Xuanling a fierce backlash.

Fang Xuanling blinked, pretending not to notice Lu Shi's gaze, turned her head and patted her daughter's arm, telling her not to be afraid, it was time to play.

"Second son, you just get used to it, and see what's wrong with him. The eldest is not young anymore, his head is empty, and he doesn't know anything except wielding knives and guns and yelling a few stupid words. When it's the second daughter's turn, don't even think about meddling , order yours." Lu Shi tugged on Fang Xuanling's sleeve, warning him in a low voice.

"Isn't the second son good enough? The serious prince-in-law captain, before anything happened, he was the most favored among all the prince-in-laws."

Mrs. Lu glanced at him, "Okay, if you don't make any meritorious service, can the saint's reward be added to him for no reason? Of course, Princess Gaoyang is also responsible for this. It is also due to her that he has been demoted one after another. "

"Come to the banquet properly, what to do with these annoying things. Go find your son, isn't he gone, hurry up and find him." Fang Xuanling said.

Lu Shi: "It's time to look for him. But he has a proper way of doing things, so I'm not worried."

"I'm not worried, but..." Fang Xuanling searched around the saint, and then looked at Lu Shi seriously, with a surprised expression as if he had discovered some shocking secret.

Lu Shi looked at him wonderingly, "What's the matter, are you talking?"

Fang Xuanling looked around defensively, then leaned closer to Lu's ear, and whispered to him: "Princess Jinyang is not here either."

"..."

Lu Shi immediately turned around and looked around, but she did not find Princess Jinyang.Lu hurriedly went to ask a few acquainted family wives, and then she saw Princess Changshan Li Yumin and Princess Hengshan Li Hui'an bouncing back holding hands, but Princess Jinyang still didn't show up.

Fang Xuanling hurriedly asked Lu Shi who came back: "How is the inquiry? Your lord is tired, did you go back to rest earlier?"

"It is said that I just left with the two princesses Changshan and Hengshan, but now those two princesses are back, but she is the only one who hasn't come back." Lu's face was a little troubled, "Could it be... it shouldn't be, the two of them None of those people."

"Young man, you are young, and sometimes you can't control yourself. What about me? When I first saw you, I was also distracted. I wanted to forget all the rules and etiquette, and I just wanted to hold you back. Your hand whispers to you." Fang Xuanling sighed.

Lu blushed at Fang Xuanling's words, and scolded him for being unscrupulous, "I wasn't worried at first, but now I'm flustered by what you said. What matters now is about my son. If it's really the two of them... I see you It's better to go to the saint to join in the fun, don't wait for something to happen, no one will intercede for your son."

Fang Xuanling nodded, and told Lu Shi to send someone to look for it, and it would be best not to make any noise.

Lu Shi had fun in the midst of suffering, and began to comfort himself: "It's nothing to think about. If something really happened, I should be happy. After all, the saint dotes on the princess. As long as she likes what she likes, the saint will still take her wishes into consideration?"

"Don't be smug." Fang Xuanling sighed, "Your most precious daughter was suddenly abducted by someone, and this person is the same little bastard who went back on his word, rejected you, and made you lose face in public. You will be merciful." , with a heart of blessing, will you give away your precious daughter?"

"No!" Lu Shi immediately said, she immediately recognized the reality and sighed again and again, glanced at Fang Xuanling bitterly, and muttered softly, "It's getting dark today, why don't you let me have a dream."

Fang Xuanling smiled helplessly, and after saying goodbye to Lu Shi, she went to accompany the sage, while quietly brewing words in her heart, thinking about how she would make herself intercede for her son.

Fang Baozhu passed on the message for Lu Shi, and whispered a few words to the elder sister Fang Fengzhu.

After Fang Fengzhu heard this, his expression changed, and he immediately called Princess Changshan Li Yumin and Princess Hengshan Li Hui'an to come to him.

"I just left with your elder sister, why are you two back now, where is she?" Fang Fengzhu asked them with a smile.

Li Hui'an said unhappily: "What's more, we agreed to go play with her, who knows how far we went, the nineteenth sister followed Mo Shide, stopped suddenly, and then insisted on sending me and the second Elder Sister Ten comes back, even if she doesn’t listen to her, she’s so fierce, hum.”

Li Yumin nodded in agreement.

"But if I'm angry, I'm angry. I still like Nineteenth Sister the most." Li Hui'an continued, "Nineteenth Sister told me to be obedient and come back, so I will come back. She promised to give me good things later."

Li Hui'an became happy when he said that.Li Yumin also agreed with a smile, expressing that she was looking forward to their nineteenth sister's baby.

Fang Fengzhu immediately asked her what direction the two of them went when they left just now, and then coaxed them to play, and then went to tell Lu Shi what he had heard.

Lu's complexion became even worse, "Your third brother just asked a person, saying that the direction he saw Yi went straight was also that way."

Fang Fengzhu was stunned for a moment, and then pulled Lu Shi to a secluded place to talk, "Could it be true as you said before, the two of them are in love with each other, and they can't help it for a while..."

"Probably not." Lu's tone was quite firm, but there are exceptions to everything, who knows if the son she thought she knew would become impulsive and confused when he likes a woman, suddenly not so stable and smart...

"The two of us go over there and have a look?"

"You can't, you're pregnant, once you get frightened, it's a big deal. Just wait here, and I'll just take your third brother. Baozhu is still young, and her mouth doesn't have a handle. Watch carefully, don't let her follow her." After saying that, Mrs. Lu called Fang Yize, and the mother and son went north along the road by the lake, and then turned into the forest path to the east.

"Going northeast from this road is the Longshou Canal. The water in the canal is clear and clean, flowing between the gardens. When I look at it during the day, it just reflects the yellow and green autumn scenery on the bank. It is so beautiful that my heart trembles. " Fang Yi walked forward with a lantern, explaining to Lu Shi while walking.

After hearing this, Lu's heart sank even more. The scenery there is beautiful, but the other side is still secluded. Why does it sound more and more like a perfect place for her precious son to have a private meeting with the saint's precious daughter?

After Fang Yi finished speaking, he turned around to see his mother's strange expression, as if he was worried about something, and suddenly remembered that his mother asked him to inquire about the whereabouts of his eldest brother, and he was shocked: "Aniang, don't you suspect that elder brother is with, and, and ..."

Fang Yi couldn't say the last four words.

Fang Yi curled his lips, "Impossible, it's impossible for elder brother, and it's even more impossible for her. Adding the two impossibilities together, it must be completely impossible."

"There is no absolute in everything, even if it is very impossible, you have to anticipate the worst outcome and be fully prepared." After speaking, Lu Shi felt that he seemed to be talking too fast, and hurriedly corrected him, "I'm not talking about your elder brother. , I am teaching you the principles of life and deeds."

"Fine, fine, what A Niang said is correct." Fang Yi agreed.

The mother and son continued to walk forward. As they walked, they heard the sound of running water ahead and someone talking. To be precise, it sounded like a woman crying.

Fang Yi stared and opened his mouth to speak, but was silenced by Lu Shi.Lu Shi asked Fang Yi, who was carrying the lantern, to lean back. The two slowed down and walked forward slowly to the place close to Longshou Canal. This place is not too far from the side of the canal, and it can be seen that they are shooting through the cracks in the trees. The light of the lanterns is bright, but because there are many trees by the river and it is dark, you need to look carefully.When Lu walked closer, he could vaguely see the situation by the canal.There are more than a dozen palace people carrying lanterns, and they stand there to light up.A wet woman was squatting on the bank beside the canal. Judging from her back figure, she looked like Princess Jinyang.She was crying, her hair was disheveled, and her clothes were wet, making her back look even more pitiful.In an instant, Lu saw her eldest son Fang Yizhi standing not far from the weeping woman. The child was wearing a purple official robe, standing expressionlessly, his eyes were full of indifference, showing no sympathy.

There are two of the maids standing by the water of Lu Shi's eye-catching ugly. Two of them are very familiar. They are Biyun, the eldest maid next to the princess, and the other is Shang Gong Zuo Qingmei, who is very capable in the palace.The strange thing is that these people couldn't persuade the princess when they saw the princess crying.Although Lu Shi did not believe that Princess Jinyang would be able to handle things like this, seeing is believing after all, and no matter how sensible she is, she is a little girl after all, and it is not known that she is emotionally impulsive occasionally.

"Could it be that the princess is playing a temper tantrum and wants to be coaxed by the eldest brother?" Seeing this scene, Fang Yi also had similar thoughts to Lu's.Sometimes a girl will be a little willful, in fact, she just wants her lover to coax her.

Lu Shi thinks about it, their mother and son don't need to be so sneaky to watch from afar.Lu Shi simply snatched the lantern from Fang Yize's hand, and then walked over generously.Fang Yi couldn't miss this kind of scene, so he hurriedly followed, hiding beside his mother to watch the situation over there.

After Lu Shi came out, he stared straight at Fang Yi, no matter what happened to the princess, the little girl fell into the water and was crying sadly, he should coax her first.The same goes for those court ladies, how could they all stand like logs.

Lu Shi opened his mouth to say Fang Yizhi, but glanced to the right, only then did he realize that there was someone else.Next to the canal, under a willow tree hugged by three people, there were two people standing. Looking carefully, they were actually Princess Jinyang and her accompanying eunuch Tian Hanshan.Lu Shi was stunned, and turned to look at the crying girl squatting beside the canal, her eyes were full of doubts.

Mrs. Lu wanted to meet Li Mingda before asking what was going on.

"How did Mrs. Lu find this place?" Li Mingda asked.

Lu hurriedly explained that he came to find Fang Yizhi.

Fang Yizhi also came over at this time, helped his mother, gave her a wink and shook his head slightly, to indicate that Lu Shi's matter is not a big deal and has nothing to do with him, so she don't need to worry.

Lu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, all the worst assumptions are assumptions, and they are the best results.

"Then... who is she?" Lu Shi looked at the girl.

"Zhou Xiaohe, just fell into the water and was rescued. I was a little frightened, so I kept crying and didn't want to be persuaded." Li Mingda smiled slightly and explained to Lu Shi.

The arrival of Mrs. Lu was a bit of a surprise to Li Mingda. She did hear two footsteps coming towards her just now. Li Mingda thought it was Zhou Xiaohe's "accomplice". The person is Lu Shi.Seeing how anxious Lu Shi was just now, Li Mingda knew that Lu Shi must have found out that she and Fang Yizhi had disappeared at the same time, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"Who is Zhou Xiaohe?" After receiving the hint from the eldest son, Lu Shi immediately calmed down, and immediately became calm as usual.She went to look at the crying girl, trying to persuade her not to be sad anymore, but also to give her the handkerchief.But he didn't want the child to be so frightened that he hurriedly crawled away, and then hugged himself tightly with his arms, with panic in his eyes.

"What's going on?" Lu Shi asked Fang Yizhi puzzled.

"I don't know." Fang Yizhi's words were flat without any emotion, making people feel that he really didn't know.

But after all, Mrs. Lu is the one who raised Fang Yi directly, so he knows the child's temperament very well.With his level of intelligence, the words 'don't know' are obviously perfunctory on his part, and he must know what's going on in his heart better than anyone else.

"Explain clearly to me." Lu warned Fang Yizhi in a low voice.

"When the fireworks were set off, a court lady suddenly came to tell me that the second sister had a quarrel with someone, and she was right next to this canal, and said that she was about to be bullied and fell into the river. I see that the second sister was indeed not there at the time, so I immediately I went with the maids. As soon as I got to the side of the canal, I heard someone shouting for help. The two maids told me to save them quickly. I didn’t move when I heard the voice was not Baozhu. I immediately asked who the two maids were. Later, Zuo Shanggong brought the maids and rescued Zhou Xiaohe from the water." Fang Yizhi patiently explained to Lu Shi.

Lu Shi heard Fang Yi's blunt words avoid the important and ignore the minor.What on earth did he do to scare Zhou Xiaohe who fell into the water like this! ?

"Shortly after the person was rescued, your lord came when he got the news, and then his mother also came." Fang Yizhi immediately explained the 'follow-up'.

Li Mingda heard footsteps again, and turned his eyes.

A while later, Wei Wanshu, Pei Shi and others rushed over.

"What happened? Xiao He? Are you okay?"

When Wei Wanshu saw Zhou Xiaohe squatting beside the ditch and sobbing, she hurried to help her.

Zhou Xiaohe was touched, she was startled, trembling all over, and backed away in fear, and then fixed her eyes on Wei Wanshu, her eyes flickered, she burst into tears, and hugged Wei Wanshu tightly.
