Chapter 72 Xiao Su, Xiao Su, Xiao Su
When Zhao Mingzhu came back, An Yun hurried to her and looked at Su Lu behind her with hostility.
Zhao Mingzhu pinched her lips when she opened her mouth and said, "I'm fine."
An Yun was like a flat-billed duck, chattering and gesturing with her hands, interspersed with waving fists.
"She and I have reconciled."
An Yun felt like being struck by lightning:?
Gu Yu supported his hand and fell on Su Lu, who was silent, and said, "I'd better find a witch to see you."
He was so delirious that he was talking nonsense.
As soon as Zhao Mingzhu let go of her hand, An Yun yelled:
"Why did you bury the hatchet? You want to be friends with her? Then what about all the suffering we endured because of her?"
"Let it go." Zhao Mingzhu sat down, then added, "We're not friends."
An Yun didn't understand. Gu Yu looked back and forth between the two of them. "So what is her role now?"
Zhao Mingzhu took out a peach from her sleeve and said, "Xiao Su, thank you for your hard work."
Su Lu looked at the plump, bright red peach. She bit her lip and took it: "I'll be back soon."
An Yun watched Su Luzhen wash the peaches obediently, and she turned her head:
"Did you catch her?"
"Or the two of them had made a shameful deal." Gu Yu speculated slowly.
Zhao Mingzhu blinked: "Both."
An Yun and Gu Yu looked at each other, then looked at Su Lu who was walking back. She even peeled the peaches, cut them into small pieces and brought them back.
Time flies, and another day of study is over. Zhao Mingzhu wakes up and stretches.
"You've worked so hard. I have to go back and have a good meal today."
An Yun also narrowed her eyes: "Is school over?"
Gu Yu walked up to the two of them first: "Is she going to the East Palace too? Looking in the direction of Su Lu."
Zhao Mingzhu nodded: "Go, are you going today too?"
When An Yun heard that Su Lu was going to the East Palace, she nodded quickly: "Go, you must go."
As the three of them were talking, Su Lu followed them slowly. But when she passed by Gu Yan, she smiled at Su Lu.
"Miss Su and my sister-in-law have reconciled?"
Su Lu nodded lightly. Naturally, she couldn't say anything more.
After hearing this, Gu Yan looked at the backs of the three people in front of her and said, "That's good. This way everyone can get along well."
Su Lu wanted to follow her to the East Palace. She nodded and left. Gu Yan couldn't help but sigh:
"There are no eternal enemies. The ancients were right."
When Zhao Mingzhu returned to the East Palace, she learned from the servants that Gu Qingheng had not returned yet.
She felt a little regretful. Time waits for no one, and she had lost some opportunities to further their relationship.
As soon as she arrived at Tingchao Courtyard, a large piece of venison was brought to her.
Changshu said, "This was hunted by His Highness. He thought the Queen would like it, so he specially mixed it with ice and sent it back.
When Zhao Mingzhu saw the venison, she immediately asked for roasted venison.
Sitting by the fire, the three of them roasted fresh venison. The aroma of the meat filled the air and the oil sizzled.
“Good wine, delicious food, and beautiful women are the greatest blessings in life!”
Zhao Mingzhu took the wine glass from the side and took a sip, then asked Su Lu to fill it up: "Xiao Su, a full glass."
Gu Yu shook the venison in his hand and said, "Yours is not even as good as fruit wine. Don't blame me if you get drunk again this time."
An Yun bit the meat and sighed from the burn. She followed suit: "Xiao Su, pour me a cup too."
Su Lu had been following three people for the whole day and was exhausted. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Gu Qingheng coming back from the Moon Gate.
"Your Highness."
Gu Qingheng didn't respond, but watched Zhao Mingzhu eat happily. "What do you think of venison, Princess?"
Zhao Mingzhu shook the grilled skewers in her hand and said, "It's delicious. Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern."
Changhe whispered to Gu Qingheng, and before he left, he reminded him, "Deer meat is hot in nature, don't eat too much."
Zhao Mingzhu was busy eating and nodded randomly to indicate that she understood.
Su Lu felt sour in her heart. She was the one who spoke first, but Gu Qingheng seemed not to see her and ignored her as if she were air.
But then she thought again, Gu Yu and An Yun were also there, and Gu Qingheng didn't actually take them seriously.
"Xiao Su, there's a bowl of salty bean powder in the kitchen. You can take it to His Highness."
Su Lu's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she quickly said, "Yes, Crown Princess, I'll go first."
Zhao Mingzhu didn't even raise her head, peeled the tangerine and put it into her mouth, then handed it to Gu Yu.
Gu Yu took a petal and put it in his mouth, chewing it slowly, thinking: "Do you want to use her?"
"Yes." Zhao Mingzhu admitted it readily. It didn't matter if Gu Yu guessed it right.
An Yun's mouth was full of grease as she ate. She heard the two people talking in a riddle and leaned closer to Zhao Mingzhu: "What is it?"
Gu Yu stuffed the tangerine into her mouth: "She asked if it was sweet."
An Yun held the orange in her mouth and said "oh", then she bit into the flesh and was shocked by the sour taste the next moment.
"Pah, pah, pah, it's so sour, how can Mingzhu be sweet? And Gu Yu, you just ate it, you must know it's sour, yet you still stuffed it into my mouth!"
An Yun covered her face and felt her teeth aching. She quickly threw the barbecue into her mouth, but the next moment she jumped up again because of the burn.
Her reaction made Zhao Mingzhu laugh out loud: "I thought Gu Yu wasn't that bad, but I didn't expect she wouldn't let you go either."
Gu Yu was too lazy to pay attention to her: "Who started it? Someone knows it."
On the way to the study, Su Lu carefully carried the lunch box. Qiao'er pointed ahead:
"The study is right there. Miss Su will go see His Highness on her own. I will have to go back and serve our queen."
Su Lu frowned after hearing this. Zhao Mingzhu's maid was so arrogant. Shouldn't she send herself to the study before leaving?
Qiao'er didn't care about that. She bowed and turned to leave. The Crown Princess said that she could go back after seeing the study.
Su Lu looked at her back. The most urgent thing at the moment was to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. There was no need for her to meet a servant.
Su Lu lowered her head, straightened her dress, smoothed out some wrinkles, raised a gentle smile, and then walked towards the study.
Changhe saw the young lady of the Su family from a distance, and he wondered in his heart why Su Lu was brought back to the East Palace by the Crown Princess?
"Guard Changhe." Su Lu stood in front of the door and raised the food box in his hand:
"This is what the Crown Princess asked me to bring to Your Highness. Could you please let me in?"
Changhe was also unsure for a moment: "Wait a minute, I will ask His Highness what he means first." After all, it was the Crown Princess who asked him to bring the things.
Su Lu nodded naturally: "Trouble."
This Changhe guard is Gu Qingheng's personal attendant, so she should be more polite.
Soon, Changhe came out and took the food box from Su Lu:
"His Highness said he doesn't want to see you, so I can give Miss Su to you."
Su Lu thought they could meet each other no matter what, so she reflexively pinched the food box and started a tug-of-war with Chang He.
"Miss Su?"
Su Lu looked at the tightly closed door behind him and loosened her grip. As long as she could enter the East Palace, she would have plenty of opportunities.
There's no need to rush at this moment.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble the Changhe guards to escort him in."
Changhe opened it, took a look, and then took it into the study.
Su Lu watched the door close again, then turned and walked back.
