He deliberately concealed from Mrs. Lu the fact that Xiao Chen was assassinated two days ago.
However, because public opinion exploded in the imperial capital these two days, Mrs. Lu learned that Xiao Chen was assassinated two days ago.
Came running in a hurry.
After carefully examining Xiao Chen's body from top to bottom, no problems were found.
She breathed a sigh of relief and began to criticize Xiao Chen.
Look, Xiao Chen only got a good look from Mrs. Lu after he agreed to countless rules.
"Aunt Lu is right,"
"What delicious food did you bring me? Or Guiyuelou?"
Xiao Chen answered absentmindedly, his eyes already looking at the food box in Mrs. Lu's hand.
Mrs. Lu glared at Xiao Chen, feeling helpless about his coquettish behavior. After sighing,
Then the two of them walked towards the garden.
......
......
Just outside the martial arts arena,
Xiao Chen saw Liu Zhenyun waiting outside, as if he had something to say.
When Liu Zhenyun saw Mrs. Lu talking and laughing beside Xiao Chen, his expression became ugly.
"Why are you here?"
Xiao Chen glanced into the distance and saw Liu Zhenyun turned around, unable to move forward or backward.
"Report, Your Highness!"
"Nangong Wan is asking for a meeting at the door!"
When Liu Zhenyun heard Xiao Chen calling him, he had no choice but to kneel down on one knee to report.
Nangong Wan?
Why is she here?
Xiao Chen was stunned.
Um?!
Murderous intent!
Xiao Chen clearly felt a murderous intent coming from his side. At the same time, a cold little hand suddenly appeared on his waist.
The coldness made Xiao Chen shiver.
"Miss Nangong, why is he here?"
"Chen'er, Miss Nangong wants to see you about something important?"
Mrs. Lu's voice sounded in Xiao Chen's ears. Her voice was quiet and elegant, gentle and generous, without any anger in it.
but....
Xiao Chen still felt sour.
"I understand. You go down first!"
"Just say I'm busy and ask her to go back."
Xiao Chen gritted his teeth and waved his hand and gave the order.
yes!
Liu Zhenyun understood immediately and ran faster than a rabbit, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Chen turned around and held Mrs. Lu's arm, calling out, "Aunt Lu~"
Madam Lu snorted, the murderous aura disappeared, and she said coldly:
"What are you looking at me for?"
"Miss Nangong wants to see you about something important. Go see her now, okay?"
Sour~
Too sour~
Xiao Chen complained in his heart, he chuckled, pulled Madam Lu to his side, and whispered in her ear:
"Aunt Lu, Nangong Wan didn't come here for that."
"It's because of Nangong Shang..."
Xiao Chen explained to Lu Hongluan what happened at the Nangong family that day. A wave of heat hit Mrs. Lu's cheeks. She felt her cheeks flush. She pushed Xiao Chen away and said, "Don't be disrespectful. I'm your aunt."
"Since this is a matter of the imperial court, you should go and see her!"
"Don't say that I didn't let you see me and delayed your work again."
And jealous.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly, but it was obvious that his jealousy had decreased a lot.
"Hey, your command!"
Xiao Chen bowed mischievously to Madam Lu and turned to leave.
Only Mrs. Lu was left, sighing slightly as she looked at Xiao Chen's back, feeling melancholy and lost, as if her most precious thing had been bought by someone else.
......
now,
Side Hall of the Prince's Mansion
"Girl, please!"
"His Highness has ordered that the girl be brought to the side hall."
"He'll change his clothes and be here soon."
Liu Zhenyun was efficient and went to the gate of the prince's mansion in person to bring Nangong Wan in.
Not only was a charcoal brazier arranged, but a maid was also arranged to serve nearby.
For a moment, even Nangong Wan had a complicated expression. She thought that all these careful preparations were made by Xiao Chen.
"Thank you, General!"
"I wonder when His Highness will be able to come?"
Nangong Wan bit her red lips lightly without making any sound.
"Wait a moment, girl!"
"I will go and see it right away."
Nangong Wan had just sat down when she saw a tall figure appear at the door of the side hall.
He was dressed in a purple and gold robe, looked extremely handsome, and with a warm smile, it was not an exaggeration to call him a handsome young man.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince!"
"Greetings, Your Highness."
As soon as Xiao Chen came in, everyone bowed to him.
Only Nangong Wan stood up and looked straight at Xiao Chen.
now,
Xiao Chen's appearance finally coincided with the one in her daily dreams.
"Greetings, Your Highness..."
Nangong Wan had a complicated expression when she saw Xiao Chen walking up to her.
She quickly bowed and said, "Your Highness, I have something to ask for your help."
Xiao Chen looked at Nangong Wan in front of him and sized her up and down.
She was wearing a fox cloak on the outside and a beautiful palace dress with a white base and plum blossoms on the inside.
Her long black hair is loose, making her look elegant and refined.
Gradually, it became consistent with the memory of Nangong Wan in a bright red phoenix robe on the night when she first traveled through time.
But today, there was a hint of resentment between Nangong Wan's brows, and she lacked the confidence of the most talented woman in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
For a moment, Xiao Chen actually had the idea of bullying her.
"What if this king is unwilling to help?"
