"I am really worried about having such a maid stay by your side, Princess."
Upon hearing this, Wen Yu was impressed by Lu Ren's top-notch sensitivity.
She kissed Lu Ren's cheek and said with a smile, "What's there to worry about? Cui Xin won't eat me."
Lu Ren frowned slightly, thinking of the maid's aggressive look just now, and felt something was wrong.
At this time, Liu Dong hurried over and ran into Cui Xin who was retreating. She glared at him and then ran straight into the room.
"Princess! Are you okay?"
Wen Yu, who wanted to continue eating meat, was frightened by the powerful shout.
She looked at the panicked Liu Dong and said in a frown: "Liu Dong, are you okay? Are you going to scare me to death?"
Liu Dong breathed a sigh of relief. The princess looked so happy and it didn't look like anything was wrong.
She immediately retreated knowingly, saying, "I am sorry to disturb the princess and General Lu. I will leave now. Princess, please continue. General Lu, please continue."
Lu Ren: ...
Can this continue?
"Princess, do all the maids in the inner courtyard know about my physical intimacy with you?"
Wen Yu teased, "What else? My General Lu, this princess has no intention of hiding you."
Lu Ren's heart trembled when he heard this, and his ears felt a little hot.
After Liu Dong came out, he went straight to Cui Xin, who was standing stupidly outside the door with a lunch box in her hand.
"Didn't I tell you not to deliver the lunch? How dare you bypass me and deliver it? Are you trying to take credit for it? Fortunately, the princess didn't blame you, otherwise you would have been in trouble!"
Cui Xin didn't react even after being scolded. She kept her eyes downcast and remained silent. She looked a little dazed.
Liu Dong took the food box from Cui Xin's hand and held it in his hand, "Are you listening to me?"
Cui Xin replied: "I'm listening."
Liu Dong thought his reaction was extremely strange, as if he had been hit on the head with a stick and was still not awake.
She said, "If this happens again, you won't have to stay in the inner courtyard."
Hearing this, Cui Xin slowly raised her head and said word by word, "Really? But whether I am in the inner courtyard or not is up to the princess, not you."
Liu Dong was a little surprised by Cui Xin's words. He was usually taciturn and always mentioned "Aunt" when talking to her, but now his true nature was revealed.
Liu Dong glanced at the food box and said with a smile:
"Look at what you said. It makes me look wrong. We are all sisters serving the princess together. We should work together. There is no need to be so hostile. The princess will definitely be unhappy if she knows."
As she spoke, she opened the food box, picked up a piece of cake and handed it to Cui Xin, "The princess doesn't want to eat it, how about one? It's the princess' favorite Qing Li cake."
Cui Xin didn't like these sweets, but when she heard Liu Dong say that they were Wen Yu's favorite, she took it and took a bite.
It is sweet but not greasy, with a mellow taste, unlike any other ordinary product.
Liu Dong's eyes flickered when he saw this. Is this pastry not poisonous?
But she still has to take it down and test it before she can feel at ease.
"What happened today must not happen again. If the princess and General Lu are alone in a room, do not go in and disturb them."
The unfinished cake in Cui Xin's hand was slightly deformed by being pinched, "Why?"
"You're still asking? Can't you see?"
Cui Xin was silent for a moment, her expression was very calm: "I can't tell."
Liu Dong glanced at him and said, "It's okay as long as you know it. Otherwise, if you ruin the princess's good deeds, she will be angry and you will be in trouble."
At this moment in the room, Lu Ren had already put on his clothes and was sitting at the table drinking tea.
Thinking of the scene in the tent just now, Lu Ren felt a little embarrassed.
He was easily bewitched by the princess again. The day for returning to the capital for the marriage was approaching, but he could not resist the temptation. The princess touched and kissed him casually, and he surrendered without waiting at all. It was really disrespectful.
Lu Ren said hoarsely: "Princess, I have to leave now."
Wen Yu took a sip of tea and teased, "You haven't even finished your reaction yet, and you're leaving? Can you walk?"
Lu Ren: ...
A wave of embarrassment suddenly surged onto Lu Ren's cheeks.
"Your humble servant..." Lu Ren paused for a moment, unable to utter anything. He just pulled at the front of his robe to make it less obvious.
Seeing this, Wen Yu sighed with some regret: "The time and place are right, but the people are not so good. I thought I could eat meat today. However, the broth is not bad either."
Lu Ren was a little confused: "What do you mean, Princess?"
Wen Yu heard this and whispered with a wicked smile. Then she saw Lu Ren's face tense up and his eyes gradually became deep as he looked at Wen Yu.
Lu Ren suppressed the throbbing in his heart and stared at Wen Yu closely: "Princess, please give me some more time."
Wen Yu held her chin and nodded: "Okay."
After getting Wen Yu's promise, Lu Ren's pounding heart calmed down a little, but it was still burning.
He breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave when he suddenly saw the romantic painting hanging on the wall.
He asked the question in his mind: "Princess, who painted this painting that you could hang it in such a prominent place."
Wen Yu glanced at it and said casually, "This one was drawn by Yue Lingfeng."
"Yue Lingfeng?"
"Yes, he gave it to me. I thought it was such a good and beautiful painting, so I hung it up so that I can always admire my beauty." Wen Yu looked at the painting, "Come to think of it, you also know Yue Lingfeng."
A hint of surprise flashed across Lu Ren's face when he heard this. He knew him?
But there was no such name in his memory, let alone Yue Lingfeng, there was no one with the surname Yue.
Seeing Lu Ren was thinking, Wen Yu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Have you forgotten?"
"I am stupid and can't remember."
Wen Yu didn't answer, but propped up her chin and looked at him with a smile: "You want to know who painted it, and why? Do you want him to paint one for you?"
As she spoke, she lifted Lu Ren's chin and smiled, "That won't work. Only this princess can paint your body."
Lu Ren: ...
Lu Ren's eyes moved, which brought back the memory of the day when the princess painted a picture for him.
He held Wen Yu's hand and looked at her. It didn't matter who painted the picture. What mattered was the princess' heart. As long as the princess loved him, even if that man loved the princess, it was just wishful thinking.
Lu Ren's eyes were firm, and he directly expressed his true thoughts: "Princess, I don't like that painting."
