This is the harem of the Yuan Dynasty.
Wouldn't that mean it all became Ningguo's domain?
That leaves only her son.
Let's not even talk about what kind of person this princess of Ningguo really is.
If one day...
Ningguo and Yuanguo really went to war.
So the prince who married this princess.
Will we become a sacrifice in this war?
Just thinking about it.
Consort Shu was already terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.
She looked at Emperor Yuanwu with a solemn expression.
"Guests are always welcome. Regardless of the relationship between the two countries, since everyone who comes is a guest, General Lu Zhaofeng will lead troops to protect them. The newly appointed top scholar will go and receive them first," Emperor Yuanwu said.
"Yes!" Wu Jixiang accepted the order and left the imperial study.
Consort Shu moved her lips, as if she wanted to say something.
But now we can only hear about it.
Everything is still uncertain.
If she were to speak to Emperor Yuanwu at this moment, would it arouse his suspicion?
The words that were on the tip of my tongue.
Consort Shu swallowed it back down again.
Mu Qianqian frowned, suddenly feeling that the food in her hand no longer smelled good.
I don't know why.
She always had a vague feeling about it.
The Crown Prince of Ningguo arrived suddenly, and seems to be more than he appears.
When Lu Zhaofeng and Lu Zhaolin arrived at the post station.
The Crown Prince and Princess of Ningguo have arrived.
Wei Ziyi was followed by more than a dozen guards in black.
Judging from their demeanor, they didn't seem to be here for sightseeing.
A young woman stood beside him.
She must be the princess of Ningguo.
She was wearing a hat, with white veils falling along the brim, obscuring her face.
Lu Zhaolin frowned slightly.
He felt a vague sense of familiarity towards this woman.
As for exactly where it feels familiar.
He himself couldn't explain it clearly.
The imperial city was unusually quiet late at night.
It's because of the recent summer rains.
The sky was filled with countless stars.
Lu Zhaolin sat alone outside the inn, gazing blankly at the starry sky.
"Young master, you have quite the refined taste."
A soft female voice came from behind, breaking the silence of the night.
Lu Zhaolin turned his head in the direction of the sound.
He stood up from the stone stool with a sudden realization, and politely crossed his arms and bowed: "Princess, may I ask what brings you here so late?"
The woman chuckled softly: "Then why is the top scholar sitting here alone so late at night instead of sleeping?"
"I'm just concerned about the safety of this inn." Lu Zhaolin stood up. "The princess and the crown prince have come from afar, and the emperor has entrusted me with the important task of protecting and receiving the princess. I will naturally do my best to take good care of the entire inn."
"It shouldn't be that bad, that you'd stay up all night."
After speaking, the woman took a step toward Lu Zhaolin.
Lu Zhaolin was terrified and took a big step back. He crossed his arms defensively and bowed deeply: "Princess, please have some self-respect."
Faced with his aloofness.
The woman didn't seem angry at all; instead, a deep smile curved her lips: "Why is the top scholar so afraid? Could it be that the top scholar already has someone he loves?"
“Princess, it’s late. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.” Lu Zhaolin said, turning to leave.
But the woman stopped him again: "Am I some kind of jackal or tiger? Do you think I can eat the top scholar? Why are you so afraid, top scholar?"
"Princess, the master and maid are not meant to touch. If others were to see us together again late at night, it might lead to misunderstandings."
