It's really what you say.
When Lu Ren saw Wen Yu was also in the hall, his eyebrows moved slightly. He cast a glance at her before saluting to the emperor.
"Lu Ren pays respect to His Majesty."
The emperor put down his teacup and said, "General Lu, you came at the right time. My sister just mentioned you to me."
Wen Yu crossed her legs and said, "You got it wrong. I should have just mentioned you to my sister. It was you, my brother, who said it first."
emperor:……
"General Lu, my sister needs to go to Beiyang Pass to pick her up. I intend to have you escort her."
Lu Ren was stunned when he heard this. Beiyang Pass, picking up the bride?
As for the second half of the sentence, it is no longer important.
His gaze fell on Wen Yu, and there was a hint of uncertainty and excitement in his eyes.
Wen Yu only took a glance and knew what Lu Ren was thinking. He must have thought that he was going to pick her up.
She looked threatened and said aggrievedly, "Don't get excited. My brother asked me to pick up the eldest prince Dinu for marriage."
Lu Ren: ...
His eyes froze for a moment before he understood the second half of the emperor's sentence - he intended to ask him to escort her.
At this time, Wen Yu added: "But I haven't agreed yet, and you just happened to arrive. The emperor's brother is really a jerk."
After Lu Ren heard this and knew Wen Yu's attitude, he felt relieved.
"Your Majesty, hasn't the marriage proposal been rejected?"
The emperor directly asked the palace servant to hand Di Nu's memorial to Lu Ren.
After a moment, Lu Ren closed the memorial, a trace of impatience and coldness welling up between his brows: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being blunt, but what right does Di Nu have to make such conditions? He even has the audacity to ask the princess to come and pick up the bride in person."
Wen Yu: “That’s right.”
"The princess is worth a lot of money, I don't think it's appropriate."
Wen Yu: "That's not true."
"If this marriage must be concluded, I think Di Nu can go to the capital on his own."
Wen Yu: “That’s what I mean.”
The emperor glanced at Wen Yu, who was trying to flatter him, and said with a smile, "Sister, are you unwilling to go to Beiyang Pass? I remember you said before that you were a little curious about what the place where Lu Ren grew up was like."
When Lu Ren heard this, he was slightly startled, his heart moved and began to feel hot.
His eyes fell on Wen Yu, soft and deep.
Wen Yu said, "Royal brother, are going to Beiyang Pass for fun and going to Beiyang Pass to pick up my bride the same thing? I can still distinguish between travel and work."
The emperor smiled and said, "My sister is right. If you don't want to go, forget it. I will have someone dress up as you and go to pick up the bride."
As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and a graceful figure wearing a veiled hat walked out from behind the hall. At first glance, it looked a bit like the makeup that Wen Yu usually wore when she went out.
Wen Yu:?
After the man stood still, he pushed aside the veil covering his face, revealing an ordinary face.
Wen Yu: ...
Lu Ren understood: "The emperor never intended to let the princess go in person from the beginning."
The emperor waved his hand to let the man go, and said leisurely: "My sister is so lazy that it's hard to ask her to move. It's strange that she is willing to go."
Lu Ren: ...
Wen Yu: ...
"This is a bit of a personal attack, my brother!"
How could she not understand? The emperor asked her to enter the palace and also asked Lu Ren to enter the palace just because he wanted to watch the fun. It was the same as the last time when he specially called Lin Yuzhi and gathered everyone in the hall.
Wen Yu's eyes were somewhat resentful: "Is it fun to tease me?"
The emperor was calm and composed: "Of course, this is my only pleasure."
Wen Yu: ...
The emperor stopped bickering with Wen Yu, and instead looked at Lu Ren and talked about business: "Although Di Nu's request for the imperial sister to come to marry is reasonable, I think there is something fishy going on."
"Since Di Nu wants to take the meeting, then we will grant his wish and send a general to escort him throughout the journey. I want to see what Di Nu wants to do."
Wen Yu was cracking melon seeds on the side, completely treating the conversation between the two as background music.
After the emperor had finalized all the arrangements for the wedding, Wen Yu had already leaned her head back with her eyes closed and fell asleep.
The emperor saw that she was sleeping soundly and didn't have the heart to wake her up.
He waved his hand, signaling Lu Ren to retreat.
Lu Ren glanced at Wen Yu, walked forward, and gently picked her up in his arms like a princess.
Wen Yu subconsciously put her arms around Lu Ren's shoulders, found the most comfortable position for her head, buried it in his neck, and slept even more soundly.
Lu Ren curled his lips, held Wen Yu in his arms, said goodbye to the emperor, and strode out of Hongde Hall.
emperor:……
How can this be done in public?
He showed a symbolic anger for a moment, then continued reading the letter.
Liu Chun saw Lu Ren carrying Wen Yu out and hurried forward: "Princess, what are you doing..."
"Shh, the princess is asleep."
Upon hearing this, Liu Chun quietly followed Lu Ren and came to the carriage.
Lu Ren did not put Wen Yu down, but sat down with her in his arms, holding her tightly.
He tilted his head slightly and kissed Wen Yu on the forehead. He used his free hand to gently stroke the back of her hand, then crossed his fingers and slowly clenched them.
To pick up the bride, he would have to leave the princess for a while.
It seemed as if he never had the chance to stay with the princess for long.
Jiang Qi and Yue Lingfeng are both in the capital, and so is Xuan Yan.
Sometimes he even envied Yu Yi for being able to watch the princess all the time.
Lu Ren couldn't help feeling a little depressed, staring blankly at the two people's clasped hands.
"What are you thinking about?" Wen Yu's lazy voice suddenly sounded in the carriage.
Lu Ren lowered his eyes, the disappointment in his eyes faded, and a smile appeared instead: "Princess is awake?"
Wen Yu rubbed his ears: "Someone hugged me tighter and tighter, and woke me up."
Lu Ren was stunned for a moment, and when he realized who this "someone" was, he quickly loosened his arm.
It was only then that he realized how tightly he had hugged the princess without realizing it, as if he wanted to become one with her.
Lu Ren frowned, feeling somewhat guilty. He knew his own strength, and his eyes were filled with worry. "But did it hurt the princess? Can I take a look?"
As he spoke, he gently untied Wen Yu's belt and opened one side of her clothes. A blue bruise was extremely eye-catching on the fair waist that was exposed behind Jingui's bellyband.
Wen Yu: ...
The speed of taking off clothes was so fast that she couldn't react at all.
She was a little amused: "With your hand speed, if there is a stripping contest, who would be the first place?"
Yu Yi should learn from Lu Ren.
