"Sure, when would you like to meet, Lord Bai?"
"Of course, the sooner the better."
"Okay, I'll go back and ask him when it's convenient."
Bai Ze was not paying attention to the front because he was worried, but when he saw Lu Yunting looking ahead with a smile in his eyes, he couldn't help but look over.
Then, he saw Jiang Yueyang pacing around.
Bai Ze: “…”
For some reason he felt she was eavesdropping on their conversation.
Bai Ze suddenly laughed in anger and shouted in a deep voice: "Master Xiao Jiang, why don't you come closer so that you can hear more clearly."
Jiang Yueyang paused, and the corners of her mouth twitched. Even though she was as thick-skinned as a city wall, she felt a little embarrassed to be caught red-handed.
However, no matter how awkward it was, since the other party had invited her, she couldn't refuse.
To this end, she slowly retreated to Lu Yunting's side.
Bai Ze was quite speechless. He was just joking just now and he really didn't expect her to actually come over.
She also said considerately: "You guys continue, just pretend I don't exist."
Bai Ze: “…”
Lu Yunting raised his eyebrows slightly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, then he raised his hand, took out the purse from his waist and handed it to Jiang Yueyang.
"What?" Jiang Yueyang took it naturally.
"Chestnut cake."
During those days of secretly observing her, he discovered that she liked chestnut cake very much and would eat a plate of it every other day.
Jiang Yueyang opened it and saw that there were indeed three pieces of fragrant chestnut cakes in the purse.
"From Su Xiang Zhai?"
Just by smelling the fragrance, she knew that these chestnut cakes came from "Suxiangzhai", the best pastry shop in Beijing.
The dim sum at Su Xiang Zhai is both exquisite and delicious, and not too expensive. Therefore, it is hard to find them.
She had sent people to buy it, and it took six attempts before she finally got it.
It turned out that people started queuing up before dawn.
"Yeah." Lu Yunting responded.
In return, Jiang Yueyang also reached into her sleeve and took out a purse and gave it to him.
Inside was her beef jerky snack.
Bai Ze: ...Who am I? Where am I? Why am I staying here?
Jiang Yueyang couldn't wait to take out a piece of chestnut cake. After eating two pieces, she remembered that it was not good to eat alone.
She asked reluctantly, "Master Bai, do you want to eat?"
Bai Ze wanted to say, with Lu Yunting, a big Buddha, watching him eagerly, would he dare to say he wanted to eat?
It's not like he's crazy.
"Master Xiao Jiang, just eat by yourself. I am not hungry."
Jiang Yueyang immediately ate the last piece and squinted her eyes with a look of satisfaction.
Bai Ze tried his best to ignore Jiang Yueyang's existence and asked, "General Lu, what does Gu Military Doctor like?"
"Herbs, especially poisonous herbs."
"Will he like the thousand-year-old ginseng?"
Lu Yunting said tactfully: "He already has quite a few."
Hearing this, Bai Ze lowered his eyes sadly. If the thousand-year-old ginseng didn't work, he couldn't come up with any better herbs.
Seeing this, Jiang Yueyang asked, "Master Bai, are you going to give up without trying?"
"Of course not."
"Then try your best. Maybe they will be moved by your sincerity."
Bai Ze suddenly smiled, "Master Xiao Jiang is right."
Then, he asked about Gu Lan's preferences and what requests he usually made to patients.
Lu Yunting answered all the questions one by one, but his eyes were on Jiang Yueyang most of the time.
Bai Ze thought, if it wasn't for his wife's illness, he wouldn't be seeking abuse here.
After asking almost all the questions, he wisely left.
The threesome became a twosome. Jiang Yueyang hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did you bring the chestnut cake specially for me?"
"Yeah." Lu Yunting answered straightforwardly.
"The dim sum at Su Xiang Zhai is so hard to buy, how did you get it?"
"Tell them to send it."
Jiang Yueyang was slightly surprised and asked: "'Su Xiang Zhai' is... your business?"
"Yeah." Lu Yunting did not hide it.
[Xiaogua, he was so cold when talking to me, and he spoke each word one by one. He was obviously not like that when talking to Lord Bai.]
Just as the system was about to speak, Lu Yunting cleared his throat and said, "If you want to eat snacks from Su Xiang Zhai, just go and ask them for them."
“They’ll let me cut in line?”
Lu Yunting was about to say "hmm", but then he remembered that Jiang Yueyang thought he was aloof, so he said a few more words.
"I've told them that you can have it anytime you want. If it's gone, they'll make you new ones."
Jiang Yueyang smiled and said "oh", joy evident in her voice.
System: [Host, AK can't even suppress the corners of your mouth. ]
[Why does this sound sour? Otherwise, why don't you find a female system who is willing to share your energy? ]
The system made a sound.
In this way, the two of them unknowingly walked to the palace gate, and Lu Yunting slowly stopped.
Jiang Yueyang looked at him suspiciously, "Aren't you going to leave the palace?"
"Yes. I have something else to ask His Majesty."
"and you……"
Jiang Yueyang didn't continue talking, she understood.
After watching Jiang Yueyang get on the carriage, Lu Yunting turned around and walked back. Not long after, he ran into the Crown Prince who was waiting for him on purpose.
Lu Yunting bowed to him and said, "Greetings, Your Highness."
The prince waved his hand to excuse himself, "General Lu, Miss Jiang is a special person, and you and her are doomed to have no future, so you might as well give up as soon as possible."
"How do you know there will be no results, Your Highness?"
"Father will not allow it."
"If she is willing, I will ask His Majesty for permission." Lu Yunting bowed to the prince again, "If Your Highness has nothing else to do, I will go first."
Lu Yunting waited for a while, and seeing that the prince didn't speak again, he continued walking forward.
The Third Prince pursed his lips and asked, "What does he mean? How can he get Father's approval?"
"It's nothing more than... handing over the military power of the Lu family army."
"He...can he do this for Jiang Yueyang?" The third prince didn't believe it in his heart.
The prince did not answer, he was not quite sure.
But he couldn't help but wonder, if he were Lu Yunting, would he be willing to hand over the military power of the Lu family army?
Or, will he give up his status as the Crown Prince of Daxia for Jiang Yueyang?
Jiang Yueyang once said that she didn't want to enter the palace.
She was afraid of being trapped in the palace, afraid of becoming like those women in the palace, losing her original heart in order to win favor.
Willing or not, he couldn't give an answer now...
***
At that time, on the other side, Jiang Yueyang, who had just got on a carriage and walked onto the street, originally wanted to go home directly, but by chance, he ran into a lively event.
I saw a group of people gathered in the middle of the road, and the sound of two women arguing came from the crowd.
Because it was too noisy, Jiang Yueyang couldn't hear clearly what they were arguing about.
【Xiaogua, what are they arguing about? 】
The system glanced over there, and then said in a light tone: [They are trying to steal your husband.]
[Oh my god! Is it so fierce to snatch a husband in the street? My aunt would be ashamed of herself. ]
