It was Lu Huaixi's pull on her that made her react.
Her current personality is that of an ordinary little white flower, and catching snakes is too dangerous for her.
Moreover, if she and Lu Huaixi didn't react, the secret guards following her would have taken care of it.
Hearing her scream, Xiaoshanzi came out quickly.
I almost got scared to death after seeing the snake in Lu Huaixi's hand.
"Oh my God! What's going on?!" He shouted inside, "Someone, come out quickly!"
Several young eunuchs worked together to transfer the snake from Lu Huaixi's hand and put it in a sack.
He returned to the hall and brought in several basins of warm water. "Lu Chenghui, wash quickly. Xiao Shanzi said that the snake was very poisonous. Wash it twice more."
Linghua and Fenghui were silently helping Tu Qingyu change clothes. Tu Qingyu looked at the little girl with red eyes and smiled:
"I'm fine, right? Why are you crying?"
"I don't know which bastard came to our Qionghua Palace to release the poisonous snake. I don't dare to think about it. What if..." Linghua's tears fell as she spoke.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm fine, aren't I?"
"Yes, fortunately..."
The little orange seemed to realize that its owner had just been in danger, and kept rubbing its head at her feet, meowing.
After the two of them had packed up and sat down on the couch, Tu Qingyu bent down and picked it up.
"Master, didn't you not allow me to hold Little Orange?" Nanny Yang was shocked when she saw this. "You can't let His Highness see this, or he'll definitely nag you again."
Tu Qingyu: "It's okay, I'll just hold you for a while."
Lu Huaixi stretched out his hand, "Let me touch it too."
Tu Qingyu handed the cat over and said, "Little Orange, go and pet our great hero."
"What great hero? That's nonsense." He said that, but he didn't refuse Xiaojuzi.
She held Little Orange in her arms, touching its head and then its belly.
Little Orange also has a good temper and allows you to touch him anywhere.
"The kitten still feels better. When I grabbed the snake, the hairs on my body stood up." She sighed.
Tu Qingyu: "I was just saying that. I never thought you were so brave. You caught such a big snake with your bare hands."
Lu Huaixi: "In that situation, there were no tools for me. And you forgot, I grew up in the frontier when I was a child. There were many poisonous creatures like this in places where troops were marching and fighting."
"When I was little, even my brother didn't dare to catch it, but I did. Maybe it was because I was a newborn calf that was not afraid of a tiger. Later, when I grew up a little, I didn't like such soft and legless animals anymore."
Tu Qingyu: "Me too, I get goosebumps when I see it."
At this time, Nanny Yang came in with some snacks and said, "I really have to thank Lu Chenghui today. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even dare to think about it."
She was also frightened at the time and subconsciously wanted to protect Tu Qingyu, but the person closest to Tu Qingyu was Lu Chenghui.
"Yes." Tu Qingyu looked at her seriously, "I will remember your great kindness."
She has the ability to save herself and has secret guards in secret. Even if Lu Huaixi is not needed, she will not be hurt.
But Lu Huaixi didn't know all this.
The other party's first reaction was to protect her when he knew nothing.
This sincerity is worth her remembering.
Lu Huaixi didn't think it was a big deal. She smiled faintly and said, "There's no need to be so particular about this between you and me."
"Come to think of it, it's more comfortable here. It's so hot over there at noon that even ice doesn't help."
She changed the subject abruptly. Tu Qingyu knew that she didn't like so many people looking at her with gratitude.
He just followed her words and continued, "You know, His Highness stays here every day, and he gives me almost all his ice. How can it not be cool?"
"If you're short on ice, I'll have some sent over." She fixed her gaze on the ice jar not far away. "We always have more than enough ice every day."
Lu Huaixi didn't refuse, "Okay, my allowance is not enough for a good night's sleep."
The two talked for a while and both felt a little sleepy. Today was the fifteenth, and they had gotten up early and had experienced so many things, so it was easy to be exhausted both physically and mentally.
"Sister, why don't you sleep here for a while and stay for lunch at noon? How about that?"
"This...I don't mind, but would His Highness mind?"
She wanted nothing more than to be intimate with the beauty.
But she inexplicably felt that if she stayed here, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would be jealous of her.
Tu Qingyu took her arm and said, "Oh, His Highness didn't come back so soon."
She leaned over and whispered in Lu Huaixi's ear, "His Highness has been very busy with the recent floods in Jiangnan. He won't be back until noon at the very least."
"Then..." Lu Huaixi hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's go to sleep."
"I was just thinking that it would be comfortable to sleep at my sister's place."
Not long after they both fell asleep, Jiang Jingchuan came back.
As soon as he finished the morning court, the secret guard came to report that Tu Qingyu had encountered a poisonous snake at the palace gate.
He no longer had the energy to deal with state affairs. His mind was full of whether she was scared or crying.
I won't feel at ease unless I come back to take a look.
But when he returned to Qionghua Palace, the situation was very different from what he had imagined.
The palace servants were all doing their jobs, without a trace of panic.
"Where is your master?" he asked Madam Yang.
Madam Yang bowed and said, "Your Highness, the master is sleeping in the inner hall."
Normally, she would take a nap after visiting friends, which was nothing unusual, but today...
"Is she scared? How can she sleep alone?" As he said this, he was about to go to the inner hall.
Nanny Yang quickly stopped him, "Your Highness, Lu Chenghui is here too."
"She?" His brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly. "Why is she here too?"
He only heard the secret guard say that Tu Qingyu encountered a poisonous snake and was rescued, but he didn't hear who rescued him.
I thought it was the secret guards I arranged who saved him.
Nanny Yang: "Your Highness, when the master encountered a poisonous snake, it was Lu Chenghui who immediately protected the master and caught the snake with his bare hands."
Jiang Jingchuan was a little surprised, but then he thought about the fact that Lu Chenghui was the daughter of a general, and it seemed understandable.
"Was she frightened? Did she fall asleep?"
"With Lu Chenghui here, the master wasn't frightened and has fallen asleep now."
There was nothing wrong with what Nanny Yang said, but the more Jiang Jingchuan listened, the more he felt something was wrong.
What do you mean the master wasn't scared even though Lu Chenghui was around?
He took a deep look at the door of the inner hall, and after a long while he said, "Then let her sleep first. I will come over to have lunch with her at noon."
"promise."
When he came back at noon, he found Lu Chenghui was still there.
Suddenly, there was something wrong with the way he looked at Lu Chenghui.
Tu Qingyu said, "Your Highness, Sister Lu saved me, I would like to invite Sister Lu to dinner."
No, why do I always feel that there is something wrong with the way Jiang Jingchuan looks at Lu Huaixi now?
