No matter what, the prince couldn't bear to see himself being wronged.
With her mind made up, Lu Baixue became even more determined to deal with Lu Wan.
But before she could open her mouth, someone suddenly came in from outside. When he pushed the door open and saw the situation inside, he was so stunned that he even forgot to greet her.
Lu Baixue panicked for a moment, but quickly recovered and said with a smile, "How come the housekeeper has time to come here?"
The butler listened to the question, then he lowered his head and whispered, "Your Majesty, please..."
When he said this, the housekeeper carefully glanced at Lu Baixue's face, and then continued, "Please ask Lord Lu to go to the study. There is something important to discuss."
Lu Wan just sneered after hearing this, "Then please ask the housekeeper to report to the prince. I'm sorry I can't obey your order."
The housekeeper glanced at her with a tangled expression, and hurriedly scolded the two maids who were still holding Lu Wan down, "How dare you treat the master in front like this? I think you are tired of living."
When the two maids heard this, they quickly let go.
Lu Wan finally got free, shook her wrist, and couldn't help sighing in her heart. After all, she was a pampered lady, but she was just restrained for a while, and two red marks appeared on her wrist.
The housekeeper bowed again and said with a smile, "Lord Lu, I'm sorry to have wronged you today, but the prince is still waiting there, what do you think?"
He didn't finish his words, but his meaning was clear enough.
Lu Wan was just angry just now, and was also afraid that Shen Yan had something important to tell her, so he asked her to come over. Now that he saw the butler lowering his posture like this, he couldn't keep a cold face anymore.
"I'm not disobeying the prince's orders, but as you can see, my sister is lying here and hasn't woken up yet. How can I leave without worry?"
The housekeeper naturally did not forget what happened in the room when he first came in. When he saw Lu Wan, he made everything clear and quickly agreed, "Don't worry, Lord Lu. I will order a few maids and servants from the outer courtyard to come in and serve. No one will be allowed to disturb this young lady while she is recovering from her illness."
This “anyone” naturally includes Lu Baixue.
Lu Baixue was not a fool. As soon as the housekeeper finished speaking, she hurriedly stepped forward and shouted angrily, "What do you mean, what do you mean?"
The butler just lowered his head and said, "I don't understand what the concubine means."
He didn't know what other people in the palace were like, but between Lord Lu and Concubine Lu, he would definitely stand on Lord Lu's side.
The housekeeper was one of the few people who knew that Lu Wan was the previous "Princess Lu", and because of this, he could see even more clearly how much Shen Yan cared about Lu Wan.
Even if Concubine Lu was favored by the prince in the past, it is unlikely that she will be able to do so in the future.
With his concerns resolved, Lu Wan decided not to get entangled with Lu Baixue, a woman whose mind was filled with love affairs. After nodding to the housekeeper, he went to the study.
When Shen Yan saw Lu Wan angrily walk into the study and glare at him fiercely, he was not surprised and just pushed the inkstone in front of her towards her.
"Grinding ink."
Lu Wan's eyes widened, "You called me here just to do this?"
Is the Shen Palace extremely poor? As for things like grinding ink, he would rather ask his maid to do it than make things difficult for himself as a retainer.
Shen Yan stopped writing and glanced at her calmly, "I was just about to ask for a title for your elder brother's victory. If you don't want to write it, forget it."
Lu Wan was just speaking in anger, but when he heard what Chen Yan said, his anger subsided halfway. He walked to Chen Yan dejectedly and vented his anger on the inkstone.
She used too much force and almost knocked over the inkstone, but Chen Yan didn't let her retreat.
Huang Shiren! Grandet!
Lu Wan glared at Shen Yan quietly, and only dared to curse in his heart.
But no matter how much she planned, she could not have guessed that Shen Yan knew exactly what she was thinking.
Although Shen Yan didn’t know what these two names meant, but seeing Lu Wan’s expression, he knew that these were definitely not good words.
It was just strange that even though he was being scolded, he couldn't suppress the corners of his mouth. The official documents that he originally couldn't bear to read now seemed much more pleasing to the eye.
He wrote word by word, and when he put down his pen, the candle on the table had already burned out most of the time. The diligent and hardworking Lu Xiao Mifeng was so sleepy that he fell asleep on the corner of the table, with half of his face resting on Shen Yan's left arm.
Just as he was about to wake the person up, the study door suddenly creaked and was pushed open from the outside.
It's the guard outside.
Just as he was about to ask Shen Yan if he wanted someone outside to serve him food, he shut up under Shen Yan's gaze.
"What's up?"
He took the cloak hanging on the back of the chair with one hand and put it on Lu Wan with great effort, then asked in a low voice.
From the guard's perspective, he couldn't see who was lying on the table, but just looking at Shen Yan's attitude towards her was enough to shock him.
However, he only glanced at it, then lowered his head and replied in a low voice, "The food has been sent over from the kitchen. Your Highness, do you want to eat it now?"
Seeing that Lu Wan was not woken up by him, Shen Yan was relieved. "No need, ask the kitchen to heat up a few side dishes and send them to Huaguang Garden later."
Although the guard felt strange, he did not dare to refute and turned around and left.
It was already evening outside. Shen Yan quietly withdrew his hand. Seeing that Lu Wan didn't wake up, he couldn't help but sigh.
After a busy night last night, Lu Changqing needed to stay with her today. I should have asked her to rest, but I called her here on a whim.
Even though she was so sleepy, she didn't say a word.
There was a flash of heartache in Chen Yan's eyes. He picked the person up gently and carried him horizontally, all the way to Huaguang Garden.
Huaguang Garden is the residence now allocated to Lu Wan. Because of her identity as a man, it is far away from the back house, but very close to the main courtyard where Shen Yan lives.
The maid of Huaguang Garden had received instructions long ago and was kneeling at the door to greet them. Chen Yan did not ask anyone else to help him. He put Lu Wan on the bed and lowered the curtain for her.
"Don't rest in front of her. When dinner is served, wake her up to eat."
Seeing the maid agreed, Shen Yan felt relieved. As soon as he left Huaguang Garden, he saw the housekeeper waiting on the side.
Without asking why the housekeeper appeared here, Shen Yan just asked calmly, "What happened just now?"
The housekeeper knew what he was asking, and didn't dare to keep him in suspense. He bowed and answered quickly, "When I went there, I only saw Concubine Lu making a fuss about punishing Lord Lu. As for why, I can't explain it clearly. Let me check it out again."
The housekeeper knew why Lu Baixue punished Lu Wan, but he just didn't dare to say bad things about Lu Baixue in front of Shen Yan.
Although the prince seems to be distancing himself from Concubine Lu now, who knows what the reality is?
Although the housekeeper couldn't explain everything, Chen Yan knew it. Just before that, he not only knew that Lu Baixue was planning to kill her sister, but also witnessed Lu Wan's ability to curse.
