Wei Rushu was a lively person by nature. He felt quite heavy-hearted after listening to Lu Yun talking about Wang Wentian's past, but he couldn't help laughing after hearing Lu Yun's last sentence.
Seeing Wei Rushu smile, the atmosphere in the room immediately eased a lot. After all, they were just listening to these things, but they were actually related to Wei Rushu.
Chen Liyue thought to herself, breaking someone's hand and throwing them out really seemed like something Lu Xingzhou would do. Chen Liyue still remembered how Lu Xingzhou treated his two sisters the last few times. It seemed that Lu Xingzhou really showed mercy to Xu Qier for Wang Wentian's sake, otherwise it would not be as simple as just breaking a hand.
Lu Yun was exhausted, thirsty, and hungry after speaking for so long. Shen Liyue quickly asked someone to serve wine and food. The four of them ate happily and changed the topic to something else. No one mentioned Wang Wentian and Xu Qier anymore.
After lunch, the sisters gathered together for half a day. There were many rules in the palace, so Lu Yun said she wanted to go back.
Seeing Lu Yun was about to leave, Xie Wanting and Wei Rushu also said their goodbyes, and Shen Liyue did not try to keep them. Sisters get together, come with joy, and leave with satisfaction, after all, there are still many days to come.
After seeing the three people off, Chen Liyue turned back and wanted to go to the kitchen to give some instructions on making some changes to the dishes, but she met His Royal Highness Prince Yi on the tree-lined path.
Shen Liyue was just criticizing Lu Xingzhou in her heart, but she was frightened when she suddenly saw him.
Lu Xingzhou hadn't seen Chen Liyue for many days. Although he had been learning about Chen Liyue's whereabouts from Lu Yun, he hadn't seen her after all. For some reason, he felt a little worried about her that he himself hadn't even noticed.
Hearing that Lu Yun was coming to the manor to meet Chen Liyue today, he actually had some anticipation. However, today in the court, the Minister of War reported that the war in the northern border was tense. Wang Wentian's army reported that there was hope of retaking the northern border in one fell swoop. The emperor was very happy and ordered him to make arrangements. The court fully cooperated with Wang's army.
After the court session, Lu Xingzhou went straight into the imperial study. He finally finished the work at hand in the morning, and then hurried to Four Seasons Villa, fearing that he would be late and would not be able to see Chen Liyue.
Fortunately, when Lu Xingzhou arrived at Four Seasons Villa, he saw Chen Liyue seeing off guests at the door. Lu Xingzhou took a detour and entered the villa through the back door.
This would prevent Lu Yun from seeing him and asking him why he came.
When he saw Shen Liyue standing in front of him, Lu Xingzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately I caught up and didn’t miss it.
Although they were partners, Lu Xingzhou was a prince after all, so he still had to be polite. So Shen Liyue bowed to Lu Xingzhou and said, "Greetings, His Royal Highness Prince Yi."
Lu Xingzhou nodded cheerfully, "There's no need for us to be polite."
Shen Liyue was puzzled and tilted her head to look at him. Because of the heat, Shen Liyue's face turned red after walking a few steps, and she looked even more lovely and beautiful than usual.
"It's been a long time since I saw you." Lu Xingzhou smiled to break the awkwardness.
"Yes, I've been busy at home lately, so I haven't been here for a long time." Shen Liyue said, and then asked Lu Xingzhou: "Does the prince come here often?"
Lu Xingzhou was speechless. He didn't come here often, but he would ask around. Even though he didn't come, he could still send someone to find out whether Shen Liyue had come or not.
Lu Xingzhou coughed lightly to cover it up. "The court has been busy lately, so I haven't been here often. But I'm here to report on what's going on at the manor."
"Oh." Shen Liyue nodded, "That's a coincidence."
Unfortunately, someone just came here just for you.
Lu Xingzhou smiled and didn't respond to her question. Instead, he asked her, "It's rare to meet you. Why don't we go for a walk together?"
"Huh?" Chen Liyue looked up at the sky in embarrassment. The sun was blazing brightly, and even the flowers couldn't smile. It was so hot, even under the shade of the trees was stuffy and unbearable. Why did she still want to walk?
But Shen Liyue was going to the kitchen anyway, so she said, "I'm going to the kitchen to find Chef Zhu to talk about the dishes. If you have nothing to do, why not come with me?"
Lu Xingzhou didn't care, as long as he was with Chen Liyue, he would do anything.
The two arrived at the kitchen, only to find that the chefs had all gone for lunch.
Only the guy who was responsible for washing dishes had just finished and had not had time for lunch. Seeing that Shen Liyue was looking for the chef, he said he would go and wake up Chef Zhu.
"Forget it, you guys work hard every day, so there's no need to call him." Chen Liyue said, "Find me some paper and pen. I'll write down a few new dishes I've come up with and have Chef Zhu review them later. You guys go and get some rest too."
The waiter hurriedly said that Miss Shen was kind and generous, and found some paper and pen and brought them to her, then he left.
Shen Liyue picked up the pen and was about to write when she suddenly heard a "gu" sound.
There were only Shen Liyue and Lu Xingzhou in the huge kitchen. Lu Xingzhou was standing next to Shen Liyue, so the sound was particularly obvious.
Shen Liyue suppressed her laughter and tried to pretend that she didn’t hear anything, but she heard another “gu” sound.
"Your Highness didn't eat lunch today?" Shen Liyue asked.
Lu Xingzhou touched his nose embarrassedly and said, "Indeed not." He had been busy for half a day and was actually hungry for a long time, but thinking of going to the farm to see Chen Liyue as soon as possible, he rode over without even bothering to eat.
Shen Liyue chuckled, "Then what would your Highness like to eat?"
Lu Xingzhou said, "The chefs have all gone to sleep for lunch, so why bother waking them up? I can go back to the palace and have dinner later without any problem."
Lu Xingzhou has been eating irregularly for more than a day or two. Sometimes he is so busy that he can only eat one or two meals a day. He eats when he is free. Although he is a prince, he is not that pampered.
Chen Liyue said, "No need to call the chef, I'll make some for the prince."
Lu Xingzhou was surprised: "You can cook?"
Chen Liyue was a little embarrassed and smiled: "If you can eat, you can cook. I love to eat, so I can cook. But my cooking skills may not be very good, so please don't blame me, Your Majesty."
Lu Xingzhou said: "No, no. Then what will you do?"
Shen Liyue secretly complained in her heart, is this Lu Xingzhou still thinking about having a full banquet? But she didn't dare to say it out loud, and only said: "See what's in the kitchen now, pick something that is easy to cook."
Lu Xingzhou nodded: "It's not too troublesome."
Chen Liyue stood up and looked around. The weather was hot and there were not many dishes prepared in the kitchen. The meat was probably stored in the ice cellar. Even if she wanted to cook now, there was only so much she could do.
"Then let's make a bowl of noodles for the prince." Shen Liyue said.
Lu Xingzhou smiled and nodded.
It was originally a hot summer day, and Lu Xingzhou didn't want to trouble Shen Liyue, but he had indeed never tasted Shen Liyue's cooking skills, so when Shen Liyue offered to cook for him, he didn't want to refuse.
Fortunately, it’s just a bowl of noodles, so it’s not too fussy.
