Chapter 140: The Lame Princess vs. the Blind Hostage Prince Consort (17)
The bedroom in the main courtyard of the Princess's Mansion.
After Lingying finished her report, Xun Ji walked in slowly, holding a porcelain cup and leaning on a cane.
Through the blindfold, Lu Cha, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was happily eating plum blossom cakes.
On the table beside him were two empty plates.
Apparently, they were all eaten by the little girl and had not been removed yet.
"What brings you here?"
Xun Ji replied shyly, "I was worried that Your Highness hadn't had breakfast yet, so I made some lotus seed soup and sent it to you."
Lu Cha's eyes lit up.
The little villain knew that she was a dry eater, so he came specially to bring her some drinks!
Taking the porcelain cup presented by Xun Ji, Lu Cha couldn't wait to take a sip, her long eyelashes fluttering.
It seems like it’s the craftsmanship of the chef in the mansion?
Xun Ji looked at her subtly, lowering his head to drink the lotus seed soup and Lu Cha, with some pastry crumbs still remaining on his fair cheeks.
Like a soft kitten.
Rather, greedy.
Xun Ji moved aside calmly.
The secret guard hiding in the tree outside the window immediately drew his longbow.
Whoosh—a sharp arrow came breaking through the wind and headed straight for Lu Cha.
Along with that, Lingying exclaimed outside the door: "Your Highness, be careful!"
Xun Ji stared at her legs closely.
Lu Cha didn't move at all, as if he was frightened silly, except for his drooping fingertips that quietly hooked the long whip in his sleeve.
Seeing that the sharp arrow was about to hit her between the eyebrows, Xun Ji's eyes darkened, and he couldn't help himself and knocked Lu Cha to the ground.
He just didn't want her to die so easily.
The sharp arrow was stuck in the cabinet door at the back.
Lingying was sure that her prince was fine, so she quickly chased after him.
Lu Cha looked at Xun Ji who was pressing on him calmly.
He could clearly see the sharp arrow, but he didn't react at all.
This assassin was probably sent by the villain to test her.
Meeting Lu Cha's playful gaze, Xun Ji felt as if he had been seen through. He pretended to be frantic as he lifted up the wheelchair, "Is Your Highness injured?"
"It hurts."
Lu Cha took Xun Ji's hand and said in a soft voice, as if she was acting coquettishly: "Can you rub my arm for me?"
Xun Ji froze, then obeyed.
He turned his head away slightly, trying hard to ignore the delicate warmth coming from his fingertips.
"A little to the right."
"A little higher."
Xun Ji silently followed Lu Cha's instructions and his fingertips suddenly touched a place that was too soft and somewhat familiar.
He saw from the corner of his eye that it was her chest, and he quickly withdrew his hand, his cheeks flushed red.
But Lu Cha asked seriously, "Why don't you continue?"
"Slave, slave, I touched a place that I shouldn't have touched."
Xun Ji lowered his head in fear, and a hint of shame and anger welled up in his eyes, which were hidden by the ribbon.
She clearly let herself be rubbed on purpose...
Frivolous! Shameless!
Xun Ji couldn't help but grit his teeth.
But the heart in my chest was beating faster and faster.
Lu Cha was about to continue teasing Xun Ji when Ling Ying returned:
"Your Highness, please forgive me. Lingying failed to catch up with the assassin."
"No problem." Lu Cha said meaningfully, "Perhaps this assassin will appear again."
Before Lingying understood what was meant, the servant trotted over and knelt at the door: "Your Highness, Miss Luo's men just came over and said that Fengran Tower was smashed."
"Lingying, prepare the car."
This opportunity to comfort the little heroine must not be missed!
"But Your Highness, you are now under house arrest by the Emperor."
Lu Cha said innocently: "I am disabled and have no legs."
Lingying: ...
This is not the meaning at all!!!
In the end, to avoid being discovered, Lingying pushed Lucha and left stealthily through the back door.
—
Western Garden.
Xun Ji, who had returned to the bedroom, looked obscurely at his fingertips resting on the armrest of the chair.
That warmth and softness seemed to blend into his skin and could not be shaken off.
In his other hand was a note sent by Yuan Ting, urging him to steal the military token as soon as possible.
Suddenly, intermittent piano sounds were heard outside.
Xun Ji frowned slightly.
Azhuo, who was waiting nearby, explained at the right moment, with a look of annoyance on her face: "It was Madam Li who called all the young servants from the Nanyue Pavilion to come to the mansion and asked them to try out the piano so that they could play it for the princess later."
"The Princess is really going too far! She already has you, yet she's still looking for a restaurant openly!"
Xun Ji raised the corners of his lips slightly.
I forgot that Yuanlu Cha is used to seeking pleasure.
Why would I care about those touches?
He clenched the note in his hand with a sneer, but an almost imperceptible bitterness spread in his eyes.
It seemed that the dog was resentful because it was jealous of the owner who picked up the dog outside.
"Go prepare a set of red clothes."
-
Fengran Tower.
As soon as Lu Cha entered the lobby, he saw a mess.
Tables, chairs, doors and windows were all smashed, and countless wine jars were broken on the ground, emitting a rich aroma.
Nothing in sight is complete.
Luo Jinshuang was cleaning up the garbage by herself. When she turned around, she saw Lu Cha at the door. She opened her arms, blinked her clear almond eyes, and looked very well behaved.
"Need a hug?"
I can!
Luo Jinshuang, who was originally a little depressed, was immediately amused by her: "My hands are dirty."
"It's okay." Lu Cha moved his wheelchair over, not caring at all, and held Luo Jinshuang's hand: "Why are you cleaning up here alone?"
"The waiter was slightly injured. I asked him to go to the clinic first."
Mentioning this, Luo Jinshuang couldn't help but get angry: "Those restaurants next door are so despicable and shameless!"
"They're jealous of Fengranlou's booming business, and they've even hired some thugs to cause trouble while I'm away!"
Lu Cha gave Lingying a look, and the latter understood and went out to solve the problem.
Seeing the interaction between the master and servant, Luo Jinshuang couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Is this the benefit of having a backer?
"Boss Luo, I have cleaned these stools. You can use them now." The man who came in from the backyard was dressed in coarse linen clothes, but his facial features were extremely delicate, especially his pair of upturned phoenix eyes, which revealed a bit of evil.
Deer tea is interesting.
Isn’t this the second male lead in the original plot, Chu Jinghong, the son of the current prime minister, who is willing to be a secret guardian?
Because he had no interest in the government, the Prime Minister did not want Chu Jinghong to get involved in trouble and lose his only son, so he simply let him pretend to be stupid to avoid trouble.
On the surface, he was recuperating in seclusion in the mansion, but in reality he was just enjoying himself. Taking advantage of the fact that few people knew him, he often sneaked out of the mansion to have fun.
Even the original owner had only met Chu Jinghong once, not to mention Luo Jinshuang, who was a concubine's daughter.
The current plot point should be that he became interested in Luo Jinshuang, hid his identity, and took the initiative to come to her house to work as a servant.
When Chu Jinghong saw Lu Cha behind Luo Jinshuang, he suddenly froze in place.
Why is the eldest princess here? ! ! !
