So General Xin, who was amused, fed chestnut kernels into Lan Shuang's mouth one by one. Lan Shuang had not finished one before another came. She turned from a normal person into a squirrel stuffed with food.
“Alright, alright…”
Seeing that Xin Wujiang wanted to feed her again, Lan Shuang hurriedly pushed his wrist to refuse.
It doesn't take much effort, and it looks just like a cat.
Xin Wujiang thought she was cute again, put down his hand and started laughing.
"Not eating anymore?"
Lan Shuang pointed to her chubby face and said, "Do you think I look like I can eat it?"
Xin Wujiang's eyes were filled with smiles, and he was about to put the chestnut back, but Lan Shuang snatched the chestnut kernel away and stuffed it into his mouth.
Xin Wujiang: "Hmm..."
He started chewing subconsciously, and looking at Lan Shuang's smiling eyes, he just let her do it.
After that, the two of them shared most of the chestnuts, one at a time.
"Don't eat too much at once. Save these for when you have nothing to do."
Xin Wujiang packed up the remaining half bag and put it back on the stone table. "It's getting late, I should go back too. You—"
"etc!"
Lan Shuang called him, "Help me deliver a letter to the Fifth Prince."
Xin Wujiang frowned, his expression darkening again, "Fifth Prince?"
Lan Shuang observed his expression and always felt that she could smell a faint sour smell, as if someone was jealous.
"Why are you sending him a letter?" Xin Wujiang said in a bad tone.
"Of course there is something wrong. I am still the adopted daughter of the Imperial Master. The situation between the Imperial Master and the Fifth Prince is unclear. Of course I have to find a way to help him, otherwise I will not be the only one implicated."
Xin Wujiang didn't say anything, and it was unclear whether he believed it or not.
Lan Shuang came over and picked up the oil-paper bag on the table. She left the pavilion and walked down the mountain. "I don't have any friendship with the Fifth Prince, and it's not easy to deliver the letter directly. After all, I'm married."
This sentence hit the spot for Xin Wujiang, and his expression immediately brightened up, changing his expression faster than turning the pages of a book.
"So that's why you came to me? Why didn't you tell me before? I just met him today."
Xin Wujiang followed behind her, carefully watching her back, fearing that she might accidentally get into another accident.
Lan Shuang was stunned for a moment, then she realized that it was no wonder that she was so proactive today. It turned out that she was stimulated.
Tsk tsk tsk, it’s still the essence of aged vinegar.
"I wanted to send you a letter, but I didn't want to disturb you, so I waited until you came to see me. And now you're here."
Lan Shuang turned around and smiled at him, and Xin Wujiang stopped in his tracks.
He came to his senses only after Lan Shuang walked away. He touched his earlobe and found it a little hot.
After going down the mountain, for the sake of Lan Shuang's reputation, Xin Wujiang did not go with her. Instead, he went around to the back, climbed into Lan Shuang's bedroom through the back window after getting out of the mountain. Lan Shuang happened to come in. She glanced at Xin Wujiang, walked to the bed, took out the letter she had prepared from under the pillow and handed it to him.
"I'm going to have a chat with the Fifth Prince at the restaurant. If you're free, you can come along, but don't show up."
Xin Wujiang took the letter and nodded: "Got it, I'll send someone to deliver it in a moment."
"Then...thank you, General."
Lan Shuang sat down at the table and looked at him with a smile: "You can go now."
Xin Wujiang: “…”
Throw it away after use, so ruthless.
He looked at Lan Shuang deeply, turned around and was about to leave, but stopped again as if he thought of something.
"What's wrong?" Lan Shuang asked in confusion.
But Xin Wujiang said seriously, "Come here."
"Hmm?" Lan Shuang was puzzled, but she stood up and walked over. When she got close, Xin Wujiang suddenly grabbed her waist with one hand and pulled her into his arms, and put his other hand on the back of her head. As his breath got closer, she heard Xin Wujiang's voice with a smile, "The reward for the sugar-roasted chestnuts."
Lan Shuang: “…”
You are forcing a sale.
Fortunately, this time it was just a quick taste. Xin Wujiang pursed his lips, pinched Lan Shuang's face and left.
Lan Shuang touched the place where she was pinched and whispered, "What kind of pure and aloof general is that? It's all fake. All crows are black. I have the same character in every life."
888: "Ah? Someone?"
Lan Shuang added calmly: "Some people."
"Oh." 888 continued playing with his fingers.
…
After someone left the prayer platform and climbed over the wall, he saw Xue Qing waiting for him with a horse in the old place. When he heard the noise, Xue Qing immediately looked up, and the master and servant looked at each other. Xin Wujiang suddenly realized it. No wonder he always felt like he had forgotten something.
It turns out that I had forgotten Xueqing.
Xue Qing looked at him with resentment. Is this the legendary preference for beauty over subordinates?
He has been waiting here for a long time.
Xin Wujiang coughed lightly, touched his nose, jumped down from the wall, and landed right on the horse's back. He took out Lan Shuang's letter to the fifth prince from his arms. For a moment, he looked at the words on the envelope and wanted to open it to see what his little fiancée wanted to say to the fifth prince.
But in the end, he didn't touch it and handed the envelope to Xue Qing: "Send it to the Fifth Prince's residence and ask him to receive it personally."
"yes."
Xueqing went there without complaint, and Xin Wujiang rode his horse leisurely back home.
Thinking of those two kisses, he would be lost in thought from time to time.
No wonder some people are obsessed with beauty and cannot extricate themselves. It seems that they are really addicted.
He suddenly felt that getting married early seemed like a good idea.
The wedding date still needs to be mentioned again.
…
The Fifth Prince was very surprised when he received Lan Shuang's letter. He repeatedly confirmed with Xue Qing, "Did Wujiang ask you to deliver this?"
Xue Qing said expressionlessly: "Yes."
"Lan Shuang's letter?"
Xueqing: "Yes."
The fifth prince held the letter and read it over and over again. He didn't recognize the handwriting, but it did look like it was written by a woman, neat and beautiful.
After hesitating for a while, he said to Xueqing, "I've accepted the letter. Go back and report it."
Xueqing left.
The Fifth Prince returned to his study with the letter in hand. His confidant stood before the table and asked, "Your Highness, why would the Saintess send you a letter? Could it be the Imperial Master's intention? Does he want to use the Saintess to confess his crime to Your Highness? This is a bit disrespectful of Your Highness."
The fifth prince waved his hand to stop him from continuing, tore open the envelope, took out the letter and unfolded it.
Lan Shuang offered no compliments, not even bothering to offer pleasantries. She went straight to the point: "I know Your Highness is no ordinary person, and your ambitions are immense. I have painstakingly planned for years, biding my time, and waiting for the right opportunity. But one person's strength is limited. I can lend a hand, and help Your Highness achieve your goal more quickly. Please meet at Xiangyun Restaurant in two days."
The Fifth Prince's expression could be described as extremely wonderful.
The secret that he had been hiding for so many years was known by his confidant and Xin Wujiang, but even Lan Shuang knew it. This was a serious matter.
Or does the Imperial Master also know about it?
Lan Shuang knows it, is it possible that the National Master doesn’t know it?
