Lu County Order?

Does he have such courage? And if he really drugged her, what is his purpose? She did not find out what beauty Lu County Magistrate arranged in the county government.

But Lu Jingzhuo's behavior was very similar to that day.

Chu Yin reached out and touched his face, wanting to see if his forehead and cheeks were hot.

Lu Jingzhuo was kissing her very passionately and didn't want to be disturbed, so he held her hand.

The fingers were very long and powerful, controlling both of her wrists. She felt like she was tied up by a rope and could not move at all.

Chu Yin was startled. Could he be in the carriage...

Although Chu Yin hoped that he would become hot, she couldn't bear this kind of heat.

That's on the street!

Chu Yin bit Lu Jingzhuo in a hurry, and when his lips finally let go while he was in pain, she reminded him: "Your Highness, are you feeling unwell? Wake up, I will ask the driver to go back to the county government office immediately!"

What is she talking about?

Lu Jingzhuo stroked his lips with his fingers: "Who is not awake?"

The man in front of him had a cold expression, with a hint of annoyance in his eyes, and he didn't look like he had been drugged at all.

Chu Yin was stunned.

Could she have guessed wrong?

But if he wasn't drugged, why would he be like this?

She moved back and looked him up and down: "Your Highness, are you really okay?"

"What could possibly happen to me?" He glanced at the blood on his fingertips. "If there is anything, it has something to do with you."

She didn't bite hard just now, how come it broke? Chu Yin took out her handkerchief and gently pressed it on his lips: "I didn't mean to do that. Who told Your Highness..."

Is this really a misunderstanding?

Chu Yin coughed lightly to cover up her embarrassment: "I thought Your Highness was..." He didn't want to mention the drug, so she didn't say it and changed the topic, "Your Highness has always been self-disciplined and polite, but his behavior just now was different from usual, so I thought there was something wrong with Your Highness."

He seldom kissed her in the car, but it wasn't like he had never kissed her before. Did she feel uncomfortable?

Besides, isn't this what she wants?

Lu Jingzhuo said: "I thought you liked it."

She liked him kissing her, but she didn't show that she wanted to do that in the car.

"I don't know how Your Highness saw this, I..."

"Are you angry?" he interrupted her.

Chu Yin's heart skipped a beat.

This wood can actually tell that she is angry?

Could it be that I have been too obviously angry these past two days?

Chu Yin picked up the handkerchief and observed his lips. She found that they were no longer bleeding, so she lowered her head and folded the handkerchief, while slowly saying, "So, Your Highness was like this just now because I was angry?"

"Well, are you satisfied?" He looked at her fingers. "You even bit me. You should be satisfied, right?"

"I said I didn't mean it." Chu Yin felt a little happy in her heart.

What he did today was to make up for not responding to her kiss on the cheek that day.

It can be seen that he cares about her.

But he misunderstood her. She just wanted to reward him that day and didn't ask for his cooperation.

But if I were to explain it, I would have to mention the medication...

Just as he was thinking about it, the carriage stopped in front of Yunyang Tower.

Dong Ling handed over the veil and hat.

Under the emperor's feet, even the small Nanyang County was very prosperous.

Chu Yin saw Qian'er carrying a leek pastry box as she walked by, so she whispered to Lu Jingzhuo, "I wonder how this leek pastry box compares to the ones in Qingzhou. When I heard someone selling this at home, I would send my maid out to buy it."

"I don't usually see you eating."

Did he notice?

Chu Yin's lips curled up: "Not to mention that the palace made it too delicate and lost its flavor, just the taste of chives... I also used to eat it when I was young, but my mother didn't allow me to do so after I grew up."

"So do you want to try it now?"

"No, just take a look. What if I get an upset stomach and delay His Highness's business?" Not everything out there is clean. She is usually a careful eater and must avoid food of unknown origin. Besides, what will she do with the taste of chives in her mouth after eating? She was sitting in the carriage in a while, and it was scary to think about it.

She was really cautious. Lu Jingzhuo looked at her and said nothing.

Further ahead, it was even more lively, with all kinds of things for sale. Chu Yin was leisurely and stopped for a while at each place. Lu Jingzhuo was not interested and spent more time observing the passers-by and the stalls.

"How much is this shuttlecock?" Chu Yin asked.

Lu Jingzhuo then realized that she had picked out a colorful shuttlecock.

"Ten cents."

Lu Zhen likes to watch the palace maids play shuttlecock, and she plans to buy one to give to her daughter as a gift. Of course, if there is a suitable one, she will also buy one for Lu Wei.

Chu Yin picked up the purse at her waist.

Lu Jingzhuo glanced at his waist subconsciously.

He has no money...

This was normal, as he never carried money with him. If he wanted to give a reward, he would ask Dong Ling to do it.

Lu Jingzhuo could only watch Chu Yin pay the copper money.

I walked eastward from Baiyun Tower to the end and took a carriage back to the county government office. It was already dark.

Lu Jingchen was waiting for these two people with an empty stomach, but he couldn't complain.

"Why didn't my elder brother and his wife take me with them when they went out?" Such complaints were acceptable. Lu Jingchen showed an aggrieved expression, "I asked my elder brother before, but he kept it a secret. It turns out that he already had a plan."

Where did he get this plan?

It just so happened that Chu Yin was about to go out.

Lu Jingzhuo said calmly: "You don't have to wait next time."

Until next time…

Lu Jingchen looked at the wound on his mouth and thought, elder brother and sister-in-law had a lot of fun when they went out together, they even kissed each other until their lips were cut. No wonder they reconciled. His elder brother was even ready to go on a trip together next time.

At this moment he really missed Tang Feiyan.

Although she is not perfect, she is lively and cheerful. If she is with him, he will never feel lonely.

Lu Jingchen said quietly, "I really envy my elder brother for having his sister-in-law by his side."

Lu Jingzhuo: “…”

Chu Yin said: "If you miss your sister-in-law, buy her some gifts. She will be very happy to receive them."

Tang Feiyan must be feeling quite resentful for not being able to come with her, so I hope the gift can help calm her down. I also hope she won't cause me trouble in the future, which will be good for everyone.

"Thank you for the reminder, sister-in-law. I'll make a note of it."

After the three of them finished their meal, they went back to their rooms.

The next day, Lu Jingzhuo discovered that Lu Xianling did not show up.

Han Xiancheng arranged breakfast on his behalf.

"Lu County Magistrate is ill. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

"What's wrong?" He remembered that he was fine yesterday.

It must be a disease caused by being scared.

In fact, let alone Magistrate Lu, Magistrate Zhang of the neighboring Anfeng County had sent people to inquire several times, which shows how frightened he was. Since he had received the silver, he told Magistrate Zhang everything and asked him to make preparations in advance and entertain the prince and others.

"He must have caught a cold. He is said to be unable to get up and has difficulty even speaking."

Lu Jingzhuo: “…”

He did not suspect that the Lu County Magistrate was faking illness, but he suspected that he was guilty of being a thief, so he would send someone to investigate.

Farmers had already started sowing seeds in the fields early in the morning.

Lu Jingzhuo and the other two walked along the field, looked everywhere, and soon set off for Anfeng County.

Yi Jian will naturally come along.

Anfeng County is not far from Nanyang County, about an hour's journey away.

Chu Yin looked out the window and asked Lu Jingzhuo, "Your Highness, do you think there will be officials to welcome us this time?"

"It's hard to say." It depends on the temperament of the county magistrate.

But Lu Jingzhuo estimates that there is a 70% to 80% chance that he will come. How many officials are there like Yi Jian?

Unexpectedly, he guessed wrong.

County Magistrate Zhang did not come to pick him up, but just waited at the entrance of the county government office.

Upon receiving the news, Magistrate Zhang was shocked to hear that Magistrate Lu had fallen ill. Even an official as capable as Magistrate Lu could fall ill. He was afraid that he would not be able to survive, so he immediately summoned his men to discuss countermeasures.

The conclusion is that the magistrate of Lu might have tried to please the prince too much, which displeased the prince. The prince thought that the magistrate had bad intentions and therefore made things difficult for the magistrate of Lu at every turn. So the magistrate of Zhang did the opposite and learned the style of those honest officials.

Not only did he not go to pick them up, but the bedroom was also decorated in a very simple manner, just like when he usually entertained ordinary guests.

In fact, this is exactly what Lu Jingzhuo likes.

Unfortunately, Magistrate Zhang was timid and could not pretend well. He was exposed after just a few questions from Lu Jingzhuo. Chu Yin secretly laughed at him. Magistrate Zhang tried to draw a tiger but ended up drawing a dog instead. He was even worse than Magistrate Lu.

At least the bed prepared by Lu Xianling is comfortable.

Of course Lu Jingzhuo could see it, but he remained calm.

Seeing that it was getting late, County Magistrate Zhang said, "Please forgive me, Your Highness. I am afraid that I can only entertain you three with simple tea and light meals."

Is this person seeking fame? Lu Jingchen almost laughed out loud.

These county magistrates are really interesting, each one is more dramatic than the other.

Chu Yin said: "No matter how simple the food is, there must be fish, right? Anfeng County has no shortage of water... I'd like a fried bighead carp, white fish soup, and anything else you like." They were all the most common fish and could not be considered a luxury.

County Magistrate Zhang nodded and left.

Lu Jingchen laughed at this time: "Brother, which of these two county magistrates do you like?"

It's hard to put it into words.

Lu Jingzhuo said: "After this trip, we will split into two groups. You will go to Haixian and Minxian, and Ayin and I will go to Wanying County and Luxian."

"I'm afraid I can't do it alone." Lu Jingchen was quite shocked.

Is my elder brother just going to give me this opportunity so that I can make a contribution?

He didn't quite believe it.

But Lu Jingzhuo is not a villain.

"You have learned a lot along the way, so it won't be a problem for you to handle this matter," Lu Jingzhuo stated his purpose. "We will go to each county one by one. I am afraid that it will delay the sowing time, so we should solve it as soon as possible. Besides, we have been to two counties, and the news has spread a long time ago. The farmers should have no doubts. You just need to urge them to sow."

That was very reasonable. Lu Jingchen said, "Yes, I will definitely do it."

He couldn't help but admire his brother's talent.

This move not only demonstrates magnanimity and brotherly love, but also does not worry about him taking away the greatest credit. It is also more efficient. After returning to the capital, his father will surely be very satisfied. But would he not take this bait?

He even had to bite.

Otherwise, his father would definitely think that he was timid and cowardly. The eldest son brought the opportunity to him, but he didn't dare to accept it this time.

Lu Jingchen sighed secretly.

This credit should still be taken. It is better than doing nothing. In the end, there is no harm.

At this time, Emperor Jianxing was listening to Princess Baocheng complaining.

"I've seen through it now. You can't have a man who's full of sweet words. It's not just men, women too." Jiang Yuyuan is also a bit of a fool. She can fool people around with just her mouth. Princess Baocheng was deeply hurt by this uncle and nephew. "The man who says he's nice to you will definitely stab you in the back. Brother, no matter what, I must divorce him!"

Emperor Jianxing waved his hands and said, "Alright, alright, it's not a big deal. I'll pass the order now."

He immediately sent He Zhong to the mansion of Marquis Xuanning.

Jiang Xian saw that his wife had no regard for their old friendship and had so quickly persuaded Emperor Jianxing to do something. He dared not continue to pretend to be pitiful. He immediately said that he was sorry to Princess Baocheng and was willing to divorce her immediately.

The two sons recalled what their mother had said and gained a deeper understanding of their father.

Sure enough, he doesn't dare to seek death...

Emperor Jianxing knew that his sister hated Jiang Xian so much that he immediately rewarded her with a princess's mansion so that she would not have to continue living in the Xuanning Marquis's mansion.

As the younger sister of the current emperor, the news of the divorce would surely cause a sensation once it was spread, so Princess Baocheng took the initiative to publicize the discord between the two to prevent people from making assumptions elsewhere.

For the sake of their two sons, they had to maintain their dignity.

Chu Yin, who was in Anfeng County at the time, naturally didn't know about this. She had just finished washing and was asking Lian Xuan to comb her hair.

As she made the bed, Ren Dong sighed, "This county magistrate is so bold. It's ok that there's no curtain on the bed, but why is it so hard? Isn't he afraid of His Highness's blame? You are the Crown Princess. No, no, even if we don't talk about the Crown Princess, a better inn wouldn't be like this."

"It's okay if I don't sleep for a few nights," Chu Yin thought. Lu Jingzhuo would never blame anyone for the bed. "If it really doesn't work, you can just put another quilt on it."

"That's the only way."

Lian Xuan didn't say anything. After combing her hair, she was busy getting the osmanthus oil.

The Crown Princess' hair is long and black, like silk, which must be due to her careful care of it.

She applied osmanthus oil on her palms and rubbed it gently on her hair.

Through the window opposite, one can see Lu Jingzhuo standing in the moonlight and talking to Dong Ling.

The autumn and winter night mist shrouded his shoulders, giving him a hazy and soft beauty.

Chu Yin wondered, what was he ordering so late at night?

Dong Ling was very surprised after hearing this.

It's strange that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants ten strings of copper coins!

But when I think about the fact that he wants to kill bugs, it seems natural.

Dong Ling left in a hurry.

Lu Jingzhuo soon returned to his bedroom.

The bed was really hard, a far cry from the one Lu Xianling had prepared for her, but she couldn't bear it. However, just as she was about to cover herself with the quilt, she saw an invisible creature suddenly crawling over the wall.

Chu Yin almost screamed again.

Damn it.

Why are there so many bugs in this place?

She wanted to complain, but swallowed the words back.

How can she have the nerve to speak out when she hasn't experienced even one tenth of the suffering of the people?

Chu Yin fell asleep and pulled the quilt up slightly to cover her face.

Lu Jingzhuo glanced at her: "So cold?"

"No, it's nothing. Go to sleep, Your Highness."

Even without talking about rules, this bed really doesn't arouse interest in having sex.

Lu Jingzhuo blew out the lamp.

The bed without a gauze curtain made her feel very insecure. Chu Yin kept thinking about the bug, afraid that it would run onto the bed, but she didn't want to alarm Lu Jingzhuo, so she just turned over quietly, hoping to fall asleep quickly.

However, Lu Jingzhuo still noticed it and suddenly asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Chu Yin said in a muffled voice: "Nothing."

"Then why aren't you asleep yet?"

"..." Chu Yin didn't want to say it.

For some reason, he suddenly thought of the night before she went to Manjusri Temple, when she sat beside him and seemed hesitant to say something.

Later, it was only after he asked that she asked for a hug.

Lu Jingzhuo was silent for a while, then reached out and pulled her over: "Tell me, why don't you sleep?"

The rare tenderness instantly broke through her disguise. Chu Yin put her face against his warm chest and said, "There is a big bug on the wall..." Her voice was very low. "I have been afraid of bugs since I was a child. I am sorry to make you laugh."

He thought of Chu Yin's action of shaking her sleeves vigorously, and said comfortingly: "It's okay, I'll get up and take a look later."

"Yes, thank you, Your Highness." He is proficient in riding and shooting, and is good at hunting. He is definitely not afraid of insects.

Little did she know that in the darkness, the Crown Prince's mouth had already curled up, but she didn't see it.

Is it a bit sweet? ^_^
