Chapter 4 Jiu Ye: I don’t recognize my old friend when I meet him again



Wide-open eyes, a slightly sucking mouth, and a constantly trembling body...

These actions made Lu Zhenzhi very uncomfortable. Since he was already riding in his carriage and wrapped in his fur coat and cloak, he couldn't be afraid anymore!

He wouldn't allow her to be scared like this!

He would not allow the girl wearing his Lu Zhenzhi cloak to be afraid!

Lu Zhenzhi pushed aside the curtain and asked in a cold voice, "Where are you? Why is there so much noise?!"

Xiao Pu approached and reported, "Master Jiu, we've reached the backyard of Prince Hui's residence. If we go through the alley in front, we'll reach your residence."

"Um."

He lowered the car curtain and saw that Fu Tong'er was no longer as frightened as before.

Lu Zhenzhi closed his eyes and said slowly, "Rest in this palace for one night to recover your strength. We can make plans tomorrow if anything is needed."

"Thank you, uncle." Fu Tong'er nodded.

Fu Tong'er raised her eyes, her big watery eyes full of gratitude, which was seen by Lu Zhenzhi who narrowed his eyes slightly.

His gaze once again rested on Fu Tong'er's little face: It really seems like I've seen it somewhere before...

Lu Zhenzhi glanced at him indifferently, thinking to himself, "How could they not call him 'Master'? Could it be that his family was so prominent that they didn't know who he was? Or was it that they were of a higher status than him?"

In Dayan, even the emperor had to obey him 70%. In fact, it was indeed so!

Even - "covering the sky with one hand"!

Forget it, call me whatever you want, why bother with a little girl.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhenzhi nodded slightly, closed his eyes and rested without saying anything else.

Fu Tong'er's body gradually warmed up. She thought to herself, I must go to the palace tomorrow! I must ask the emperor to divorce Prince Hui!

Then, with my dowry and a carriage, I could return to my parents in three days, five at the most, and be a proud daughter of a wealthy family again. Never again would I risk my life for a scumbag.

As she thought about it, Fu Tong'er clenched her fists unconsciously, completely forgetting that her feet had been frozen to the point of numbness...

Lu Zhenzhi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Fu Tong'er who looked like she was determined to take revenge. He smiled faintly in his heart. This little person, wrapped in his big cloak, could still show such a playful and tough spirit. Ha, it was really interesting.

Could it be that she has some deep hatred for the Emperor's nephew, Prince Hui?

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but speak in a light tone: "Is what you are thinking about related to King Hui?"

Fu Tong'er raised her head and met Lu Zhenzhi's eyes that looked down upon everyone. She immediately lowered her head and whispered "Yes."

"Why did he treat you like this?"

Fu Tong'er raised her head again and met Lu Zhenzhi's deep eyes. She lowered her head and twisted her hands under his cloak, mumbling "I... I... I..."

Seeing her embarrassed look, Lu Zhenzhi said in a deep voice: "You don't have to tell me."

At this time, the carriage had stopped. Snow was falling heavily in front of the door...

Prince Chun's Mansion

Deputy General Xiao rode his horse to report: "Master Jiu! We're here!"

At this time, Fu Tong'er heard the old nanny outside shouting: "Nineth Master is back! Nineth Master is back! Chun'er, Xia'er, go and prepare the midnight snack. Don't forget the ginseng soup that Nineth Master ordered. Have you prepared the hot water, Xiao Xunzi?"

A young boy replied, "It's ready, Madam Su!"

"Put the footstool in place quickly."

"Master Jiu, that's enough."

Deputy General Xiaopu reported outside the carriage curtain, then dismounted and ordered someone to pull up the front curtain of the carriage.

Lu Zhenzhi stood up slightly, and his tall and strong body made the space in the carriage seem particularly cramped.

He held out his hand again:

"Come! Can you still walk? Do you want me to carry you?" Lu Zhenzhi hoped Fu Tong'er would agree, but it was strange. After so many years of marching and fighting, he hadn't had much interest in women. Even the singing girls in the army were just glances. But when it came to Fu Tong'er in front of him, he wanted to pick her up and then, in front of everyone, bring her into his own palace...

Fu Tong'er said hurriedly: "No, I can leave."

Fu Tong'er's soft hair swayed slightly in the cold wind. Although she looked disheveled, she was still well-behaved.

"The beauty is graceful"

Lu Zhenzhi felt that these four words were just right for her.

Fu Tong'er's gaze fell again on the hand that had just given her strength.

Her eyebrows were drooping, and silvery snow fell under her distinct eyelashes.

In the end, Fu Tong'er chose to give her hand to this gentleman again.

The moment they touched, Leng Bai's slender hand was quickly grasped by a strong big hand, which led him steadily onto the footstool and to the ground.

After she stood firmly, Lu Zhenzhi let her go as if nothing had happened.

"Are you sure you can walk by yourself? I'll carry you in?" Lu Zhenzhi asked again. His private thoughts were all the thoughts of a mature man towards a woman.

"Yes, I can do it." Fu Tong'er even jumped twice to prove that her knee was just bleeding and it did not affect her walking.

“…”

Lu Zhenzhi frowned slightly, immediately pressed her shoulders, looked at the stone lions in front of him, and said helplessly: "I believe you."

At this time, Nanny Su came over quickly——

"Master, why aren't you wearing a fur coat? Bring one here quickly..." Nanny Su said as she looked at Fu Tong'er behind her master... The master's fur coat was actually being worn by this strange girl!

I brought back a girl!

I brought back a girl!!

Before, the master sent someone to the mansion in advance to ask him to prepare a set of clean shoes, socks and clothes for women. Was it because of her?

Wait, this girl looks so familiar, I seem to have seen her in the imperial city.

Nanny Su thought about it and bent over to offer the hand warmer to Lu Zhenzhi: "Nine Master..."
