Chapter 77 General Lu, who is the girl you like?
After dealing with Fang Yu, Lu Jiuan cleaned the room thoroughly, fearing that these dirty things would dirty Shen Qingtang's eyes.
Lu Jiuan asked the inn's staff to prepare a new meal. This time, he checked the food carefully, and only served it to Shen Qingtang after confirming that there was no problem.
Shen Qingtang was weak and had a poor appetite. After eating just two bites, he went back to bed to sleep.
Although Shen Qingtang took the detoxification pill, he still needed to rest for two more days to fully recover.
The next morning, Shen Qingtang walked out of the house slowly. His already thin body now looked even thinner.
Seeing that she was in a bad mental state, Lu Jiuan suggested: "Fourth Miss, why don't we continue to rest here for two days? It won't be too late to set off again when you recover."
At this time, a guard next to her whispered to Lu Jiuan.
"The master already knows that we have found the fourth lady, and he asked us to go back as soon as possible."
Last night, they reported the news of finding Shen Qingtang and Fang Yu's poisoning to the emperor.
Shen Tianming was very excited when he heard that Shen Qingtang was on the way back.
During the days when Shen Qingtang left the palace, Shen Tianming was extremely worried about the spy
. He did not find the spy in the kitchen, nor did he find the spy among the examiners of the Spring Examination, not to mention other spies. Shen Tianming now deeply realized that he was surrounded by dangers. Every morning when he attended the court, Shen Tianming felt that all the ministers below had problems. It was obviously a normal sentence or a look, but in Shen Tianming's opinion, it was very problematic.
In this highly nervous state, Shen Tianming became mentally confused.
Shen Qingtang was now his only lifeline, and he did not trust any of those ministers!
In the past, Lu Jiuan obeyed the emperor's orders unconditionally. No matter how unreasonable the request was, he would carry it out immediately without complaint.
But now, as long as it is related to Shen Qingtang, Lu Jiuan will put her first.
Even if it is the emperor's order, he doesn't want to obey it.
"The fourth lady was poisoned yesterday and her body hasn't recovered yet. How can you rush on the road in such a hurry?"
"It won't be a big deal to go back a day or two later."
The emperor's order is not as important as the health of the fourth princess!
"But..." You know the emperor's violent temper!
The guard looked at Lu Jiuan helplessly, and seeing Lu Jiuan's stern face, he didn't dare to say anything more. After all, the health of the fourth princess was not very good.
"No need to rest, let's go back quickly." Shen Qingtang smiled at them, "otherwise you will be punished again if you go back late."
The guards were moved when they heard this. The Fourth Princess herself was sick, but she was still thinking about them!
The Fourth Princess is so nice!
They winked at Lu Jiuan, General Lu, did you hear that? The Fourth Princess said she doesn't need to rest!
Lu Jiuan:...
He knows that the Fourth Princess is kind-hearted, but she can't joke with her own body.
"Then please let Miss Four take my spirit sword and go back." This was Lu Jiuan's last line.
"Okay." Shen Qingtang nodded in agreement.
[It just so happens that I'm too lazy to fly with the sword. ]
Above the clouds.
Lu Jiuan always turned his head from time to time to observe Shen Qingtang's situation.
The cold wind blew in her face, and Shen Qingtang couldn't help but shiver. In order to hide her identity, she wore ordinary clothes. Now she was sick and had no extra spiritual power to ward off the cold.
Lu Jiuan noticed Shen Qingtang's abnormality with his sharp eyes. He raised his hand and conjured up a red high-end dupatta with red plum blossoms embroidered on it. There was a circle of white fluff on the edge of the hat, which added a bit of cuteness and playfulness to it, and it matched Shen Qingtang very well.
This was the dupatta that Lu Jiuan specially prepared for Shen Qingtang. Now it was winter, and he was worried that Shen Qingtang would freeze. Now that he encountered this situation, Lu Jiuan was very glad that he had been prepared.
"Fourth Princess, put this on and you won't feel cold."
Lu Jiuan handed the cloak to Shen Qingtang. If possible, he wanted to put it on her personally.
"General Lu is so considerate."
Shen Qingtang took the cloak and put it on, put on the hat, and after a while, she really didn't feel cold anymore.
[This cloak is a good thing. ]
[Wait, why does General Lu have a woman's cloak? ]
Shen Qingtang looked at Lu Jiuan meaningfully and joked: "General Lu, how come you have a woman's cloak?"
[Could it be that General Lu has a girl he likes? ]
[Then I can't wear this cloak. ]
Lu Jiuan: ...
He does have a girl he likes, but it's not someone else.
Lu Jiuan was afraid that Shen Qingtang would take off the cloak, so he quickly explained: "This is what I prepared for my mother."
"Madam Lu?"
Shen Qingtang stared at him, obviously not believing it.
[This color, this style, and it's said to be prepared for Madam Lu, do you think I'm stupid! ]
"General Lu, you can't fool me, this cloak is obviously for young girls."
Shen Qingtang poked Lu Jiuan's back with his elbow and smiled slyly: "General Lu, don't be shy, tell me who is the girl you like?"
Lu Jiuan's face flushed, and he stammered: "No, no, I don't have a girl I like."
Shen Qingtang:...
[No, you tell me no with such a blushing face? 】
【Do you think I will believe it? 】
"Okay, I know you have it."
Shen Qingtang untied the straps, took off the hood and gave it back to Lu Jiuan.
"General Lu, you can't give other girls the things you prepared for your sweetheart."
Shen Qingtang would not treat herself badly without Lu Jiuan's fighting cape, after all, she also had a high-end fighting cape.
Just now, when she was about to take it out and put it on, Lu Jiuan handed it to her first.
Looking at the fighting cape in his hand, Lu Jiuan's eyes were slightly lost.
"I really don't have a lover."
Lu Jiuan didn't dare to say that he liked Shen Qingtang, so he could only put away the fighting cape aggrievedly.
Shen Qingtang looked at him with a smile, with an expression of "I understand, I understand everything."
"Okay, okay, you don't have a lover."
Lu Jiuan:...
He was disheartened at the moment, it was over, the fourth princess misunderstood him.
Shen Qingtang lowered his eyes and looked at the scenery below, thinking secretly in his heart.
[The plot has indeed changed. Now even Lu Jiuan has someone he likes. 】
【Lu Jiuan is now in a relationship, I can’t tease him anymore. 】
Shen Qingtang suddenly remembered that she had forcefully kissed Lu Jiuan before.
【Oh no, I forcefully kissed him before to confuse him. 】
【Sorry, sorry, I really didn’t know at the time. 】
Lu Jiuan’s brows furrowed as he heard this, and he felt very depressed.
Is the Fourth Princess going to draw a line between herself and him?
