Until the jailer called out again: "Alice!"
At this moment, she vaguely remembered that Alice was her name.
She turned her head stiffly towards the source of the sound, her eyes dull and dead, but when she saw Lu Ren, her eyes instantly widened, became straight, and also had some spirit.
Alice used to be the proud Princess Sili. She looked down on all men and felt that no man was worthy of her.
Only the most valiant and skilled warrior is worthy of her favor, to stand with her and become her man.
And Lu Ren is the number one warrior.
Her most admired brother Lance was also defeated by Lu Ren on the battlefield and became his defeated general.
She still remembered the day when Lu Ren knocked Lance off his horse, pointed his dragon-like spear at Lance's throat, and looked cold in the eyes.
And the sentence full of contempt: "Don't overestimate your own abilities."
Even though she has fallen into this situation, Alice still believes that Lu Ren is her number one warrior.
She never really blamed Lu Ren for his coldness, disregard and ruthlessness towards her.
The winner takes all, the loser takes all. It was just that her plan failed. Otherwise, the offensive and defensive positions would have changed. Lu Ren had to kneel at her feet and beg her to look at him more.
I can only say that in some ways, Alice and Lance are indeed blood-related siblings.
Alice looked at Lu Ren and uttered a poor Dasheng official language from her throat, her voice extremely rough: "Is it my illusion? Or is it really you?"
Lu Ren frowned, his face cold.
"You actually came to see me..." Alice wanted to stand up, but she was too weak. "I guess my brother has caused you a lot of trouble."
Jiang Qi waved his hand, and the jailer immediately stepped forward to arrest the man and took him out of the Ministry of Punishment.
"Thank you, Lord Jiang." Lu Ren bowed.
Jiang Qi's gaze swept across Alice's back as she was being taken away and Lu Ren's body, his expression slightly stiffening.
"General Lu personally escorted Alice to Beiyang Pass?"
"Yes." Lu Ren said, "I'll have to trouble Lord Jiang to send someone to deal with Alice. I'll come to pick her up in two hours."
"nature."
The two of them spoke in silence along the way.
It was not until Lu Ren was about to leave the Dali Temple that Jiang Qi said quietly, "General Lu, the princess once said that chastity is the best dowry for a man."
Lu Ren did not stop: "No need to remind me, Lord Jiang."
He was in a hurry to see the princess and had only two hours.
Jiang Qi didn't respond. He didn't trust men, but he believed in the princess's vision.
When Lu Ren rushed to the princess's mansion, Wen Yu was bathing in the bathroom.
But he didn't know and jumped through the window into the inner room as he did before.
Liu Qiu was making the bed for Wen Yu, "Who is it?!"
When she turned around and saw Lu Ren, she was shocked: "General Lu, General Lu? Shouldn't you be at Beiyang Pass?"
Lu Ren glanced at the bed and said without further ado: "Where's the princess?"
"General Lu, the princess is taking a bath."
Lu Ren curled his lips when he heard that, and turned back to the bathroom as if he was familiar with the place.
At this time, Wen Yu was leaning in the bathtub, drowsy. It was really comfortable to take a hot bath in winter.
And Liuchun was adding hot water to Wen Yu.
When Liu Chun saw Lu Ren pushing the door open, he almost dropped the gourd ladle in his hand.
Just as she was about to speak, Lu Ren signaled Liu Chun to be quiet.
Liu Chun frowned, handed the gourd ladle to Liu Dong, and then signaled Lu Ren with his eyes to follow him out.
Lu Ren: ...
Although he felt strange, he still followed her out considering Liuchun's status next to Wen Yu.
But as soon as he walked out of the bathroom, Liu Chun lowered his voice and said, "You're going too far. How can you dress up as General Lu and climb into bed?"
Lu Ren: ...
His expression was slightly stern, and then he realized something and asked coldly, "Pretending to be General Ben to climb into bed? Who? That Ning Xuanyan?"
Liuchun:?
At this time, Liu Qiu came after making the bed.
Seeing Lu Ren and Liu Chun at the door of the bathroom, she asked, "General Lu, aren't you in a hurry to see the princess? Why haven't you gone in yet?"
Liuchun: ...?
At this time, Liuchun had already reacted and realized that the person in front of him was Lu Ren Bennin.
So she asked the same question as Liu Qiu: "General Lu, shouldn't you be at Beiyang Pass?"
Lu Ren did not answer, his expression was so cold that Liu Chun and Liu Qiu both fell silent.
Liuchun scratched his head and said, "General Lu, I thought you were in Beiyangguan, how could you appear in the princess's mansion? So I thought it was Cuixin who came to climb into bed again in a different way. Please don't misunderstand."
"again?"
Liuchun: ...
Amitabha, General Lu, you really know how to grasp the key points.
Lu Ren didn't like Ning Xuanyan in the first place, but it was disgusting that a former prince dared to speak so arrogantly in front of the princess and now he repeatedly climbed into her bed.
He turned around and walked back into the bathroom. Seeing Wen Yu leaning against the tub and sleeping in a daze, he slowed down his steps, took the gourd ladle from Liu Dong's hand, and said in a calm tone, "I'll do it."
Seeing this, Liu Dong stepped aside and stood guard.
Lu Ren lowered his eyes and looked at Wen Yu. He scooped up a ladle of hot water, and after making sure that the temperature was not scalding, he gently poured it on her fair shoulders.
The hot water drew an arc down along the shoulders and then merged with the water again.
Then, a kiss followed.
Unlike the touch of water, Wen Yu opened her eyes and happened to meet Lu Ren's gaze staring at her, and then she couldn't help but widen her eyes.
Even Wen Yu was surprised to see Lu Ren.
"Do you like me like this?" Lu Ren whispered.
Wen Yu:?
She was full of questions: "What?"
Lu Ren stroked Wen Yu's cheek and said, "I'm pretending to be Lu Ren and climbing into bed. Do you like it?"
Wen Yu: ...
Her eyes scanned Lu Ren's face bit by bit, and finally met his aggressive gaze, which was filled with paranoid possessiveness, but that possessiveness was forcefully suppressed by him.
This is a look that belongs only to Lu Ren.
Wen Yu suddenly smiled: "Ning Xuanyan?"
Lu Ren: ...
He stared at Wen Yu: "Who is more powerful, me or Lu Ren?"
Wen Yu tilted her head: "What do you mean?"
"What do you think, Princess?"
"What answer do you want to hear?" Wen Yu pulled Lu Ren's collar and whispered in his ear, "General Lu, Ning Xuanyan never calls me princess."
Unless you're too emotional about something.
Lu Ren: ...
Wen Yu hooked her fingers around his: "Fold your eyes, your acting is so poor, I can see through it at a glance."
Lu Ren: ...
