Rong Xi stood up from the chaise longue.
"Okay, I should go back now. You guys can make your own arrangements."
Lanzhi was still holding onto Rongxi's clothes and was unwilling to let go. "Miss, can't you stay a little longer?"
"If you don't leave now, you'll be suspected."
Rong Xi went out and returned to the carriage. The two people she sent out to buy things came back just as she got on the carriage.
"Girl, we bought some peach blossom pastry. Would you like to try it first?"
Rong Xi turned back into the fragile little white flower she was before.
"Okay, you guys try it too."
When they returned home, Chu Jinzhi was already waiting for them.
She was holding the pastries and just wanted to eat quietly, but someone hugged her.
"Xiao Liu'er, don't you want me to try your cakes?"
The more Chu Jinzhi saw how shy she was, the more he wanted to tease her, and when she handed him the pastry, he pushed her hand away.
"I want to eat what's here." Chu Jinzhi touched her lips with his index finger.
Rong Xi almost spat out the pastry that he hadn't swallowed yet.
"you……"
Chu Jinzhi finally ate the pastry, but in the end the pastry turned into someone.
Rong Xi found that he was more ferocious this time than any other time before, almost as vicious as the time when he took Chinese medicine.
Afterwards, Chu Jinzhi hugged the person in his arms.
"Xiao Liu'er, if I get married, will you follow me back to the Admiral's Mansion or do you want to continue staying outside?"
Rong Xi never thought that she would become his legal wife after she followed him. After all, in this era, there was a huge gap in status, and it was impossible for her to become his legal wife with her status.
But she had experienced so many worlds, and except for the first one, she had never shared a husband with anyone else in other worlds, so she would not allow such a thing to happen.
By the time that time comes, the baby in her belly will be stable, and it won't matter whether Chu Jinzhi is there or not.
Besides, she came here to retire, and she didn't want to make things so complicated.
She hugged Chu Jinzhi and kissed him on the face.
"I know my identity, I am clear in my mind, and I have no opinion."
She avoided Chu Jinzhi's question and said this ambiguously.
She thought the same in her heart, enjoy the present moment and deal with the future later.
Chu Jinzhi felt that she was really sensible, so he hugged her and kissed her again and again.
"So good."
For several days in a row, the two of them stayed together.
Lin Yi and Jiang Yu went to the Governor's Mansion several times but did not see Chu Jinzhi.
It was only at the end that they realized that Chu Jinzhi did this because they had offended him with their words that day, which was why the people at the city gate seized the goods in their home.
I didn't expect him to become so stingy, taking just a few jokes so seriously.
They came several times but were told that Chu Jinzhi was not there. They thought Chu Jinzhi didn't want to see them.
Finally, on this day, after Chu Jin finished his court session, he blocked the people at the palace gate.
There were not only the two of them but also their father.
But there is someone faster than them, including the prime minister.
"Master Chu, please stay."
Chu Jinzhi stopped and saw Prime Minister Lu walking towards him.
"Young people are always quick on their feet. I left without even seeing you."
"What does Prime Minister Lu want to talk to Chu about?"
"I'm having my little girl's birthday party soon, and I'd like to take this opportunity to treat you to a few drinks."
Chu Jinzhi didn't like attending these banquets, but since Prime Minister Lu had helped him in the past, it was difficult for him to refuse.
"Chu will definitely prepare a generous gift."
"That's great, let me tell you..."
The two men left while talking. The four people behind them could not go forward because the prime minister was there, so they could only watch him leave.
.
On the day of the banquet, Chu Jinzhi originally wanted to take Rong Xi with him.
But he knew very well who would come to the banquet. Men and women would sit at separate tables. He was afraid that Rong Xi would be bullied, so he asked Rong Xi's opinion before letting her stay at home.
"Then you wait for me at home, and I'll bring you something delicious when I come back."
"Go ahead, have fun."
Chu Jinzhi rubbed Rong Xi's head. This official banquet was not that simple. Any wrong words said during chatting and laughing would be remembered by those censors, and they might be brought up as capital for impeachment at any time.
Watching the carriage leave, Rong Xi asked the system to erase the memories of all the servants in the house.
Under the pretext of sleeping, he left directly through the back window.
She came to the yard that Lanzhi had rented before. It was much larger than Jinyuan, and the ornaments and screens had been replaced with the styles that Rong Xi liked.
Seeing Rong Xi coming, Lanzhi stuck to him directly.
"Miss, I missed you so much."
Rong Xi glanced at her and asked in confusion as he looked at her drooping hand.
"What's wrong with you?"
When Lanzhi said this, she wanted to cry even more, and went to Rong Xi to complain with a wronged look on her face.
"Miss, you have to make the decision for me. It was Lanying who thought I was noisy. It was just a normal competition, but she removed my arm and refused to put it back on. I can't put it back on myself, Miss, wuwuwu~"
Her fake crying made Lan Ying, who was standing beside her, frown in anger.
Rong Xi had no choice but to touch her joints a few times, and with a click, the arm was connected.
The man whose arm had just been reattached rushed directly towards Lan Ying, and in a short while, the two had fought for more than ten rounds.
"alright."
As soon as the voice came out, the two of them stopped their actions immediately.
"I have something for you to do."
Lanzhi, who was always casual and relaxed, also became serious along with Lanying.
