Xiao Chengjun looked at him and couldn't help but sigh.

Emperor Chunde was not confused at times. For example, when it came to talents, he had always had a very accurate vision. Last year, when Lou Jing Qiuyou showed off his talents, he unambiguously rewarded him with the title of Lieutenant General of the Feather Forest. That’s why the Queen originally asked Lou Jing to

When Jing became the crown princess, Emperor Chunde was not very happy.

"I have a vague guess, but it hasn't been confirmed yet," Lou Jing put down his arms and returned to the pillow, his voice a little cold, "Maybe we'll find out in a few days." Since someone wants to plot against him, he will do it twice as hard.

The consciousness of going back for revenge.

Xiao Chengjun could hear the coldness in his words. He no longer had the joy of laughter just now. He couldn't help but secretly regret that he was originally unhappy, but it made the Crown Princess sad. He slowly stretched out his hand and tentatively reached towards the building.

Jing put the one on the pillow, "I will help you."

The warm and dry touch brought back the increasingly cold heart. Lou Jing held the hand in his palm and said, "I will also help His Highness."

The slender and shiny hands, like warm jade, wrapped his hands, and a bitter smile appeared in Xiao Chengjun's eyes. His princess was not loved by his father, and he himself was not the same, "I can no longer advise my father.

To make a direct remonstrance, you must be like those sycophants who lure your father into agreeing..."

"Your Highness is also a minister of the Emperor. As long as he can persuade the Emperor, it doesn't matter whether he remonstrates directly or not." Lou Jing pulled the warm hand closer to her, "The father is the guide for the son, but he cannot be blindly filial.

, I have understood this principle since my father handed the torture stick to the guard."

Guard? Xiao Chengjun frowned. It turned out that his injury was caused by a guard. No wonder it didn't heal after so long.

Lou Jing looked up and saw His Highness the Crown Prince's frown, stretched out his little finger, gently scratched His Highness's palm, and said with a brisk tone, "So when I come back tomorrow, Your Highness just needs to keep a cold face, and I will too."

I can follow His Highness to gain glory and let my father kowtow to me."

"You..." Xiao Chengjun couldn't help but chuckle. Being teased by him, his depressed mood immediately dissipated a lot.

Lou Jing held the prince's hand and told him the situation at home in a gentle tone, "There are two uncles and one aunt in my family now, both of whom are concubines. My aunt married to Jinyang, and the two uncles haven't separated yet.

In Anguo Gongfu, I had no official position, so I helped my father with some common affairs at home..."

Xiao Chengjun listened to that melodious voice and talked about his family's shortcomings in a long and flowing manner. The gloom in his heart was miraculously gradually dispelled. He didn't know when he closed his eyes and fell into a dream.

The early morning sunlight shines through the window and shines on the bright red curtains. Lou Jing woke up in a daze and felt that she had slept very comfortably. She no longer felt any pain in her neck, thanks to the pillow in her arms that supported her body.

...Wait, that’s the pillow in your arms! Lou Jing suddenly woke up and opened her eyes carefully.

What he was holding in his arms was naturally not a pillow, but Xiao Chengjun, who was sleeping very well. Last night, because he slept on his side, he unknowingly lay down on one side, and His Royal Highness, who was closest to him, was naturally picked up by him.

In my arms!

The body in her arms was slender and warm, and it was very comfortable to hold her. Lou Jing was reluctant to let go for a moment. At this moment, the sleeping man snorted softly, and his thick eyelashes began to tremble slightly.

Lou Jing immediately closed his eyes and acted as if he was having a sweet dream. Otherwise, if the prince found out that he was awake and didn't move his legs away from his body, it would be disrespectful!

Xiao Chengjun frowned, feeling something pressing on his body, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. When he saw the situation clearly, His Highness the Crown Prince stiffened immediately. His Crown Princess was sleeping soundly on top of him, with one slender leg still

On his lap!

Helplessly curling his lips, Xiao Chengjun relaxed and turned his head slightly. The handsome face as beautiful as a jade was very close at hand. He couldn't help but approach slowly and touched it gently with the corners of his lips.

Lou Jing closed his eyes and felt something soft and warm touching his cheek. In the darkness, all the feelings became clearer several times. The painting he saw last night suddenly popped up in the sea of ​​​​consciousness, and his body felt inexplicably warm.

If you keep pretending, something will happen! Lou Jing had to open her eyes. Unexpectedly, what she saw was a "sleeping" His Royal Highness. She couldn't help but curl her lips.

After the two got up, they washed and dressed. No one mentioned what happened just now, as if nothing happened.

Xiao Chengjun was very satisfied when he saw that Lou Jing had called Le Xian to help him change clothes, while the two maids only served the dishes and combed their hair.

After returning home three times, you should go back in glory.

The guards of the East Palace were surrounded by angry horses in fresh clothes. The prince and the princess rode a five-carriage carriage and headed west of the city in a mighty manner.

"There has been a lot of trouble in the DPRK recently, so I can't be too luxurious." Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Chengjun said to the Crown Princess with some regret.

When the Crown Princess returned home, she was supposed to play drums and music to mobilize the Lin army to clear the way.

Lou Jing laughed loudly when he heard this, "I am a man, what kind of pomp and show do you need when you return home?"

Xiao Chengjun thought about it and realized that for Lou Jing, marrying him was not a glorious thing. If he came back in a big way, he might even make fun of him, but he thought it was wrong.

"I have never been in a five-carriage carriage!" Lou Jing smiled and looked at the five pure-colored maroon horses outside the carriage. "These horses are in good condition. I also raised a few good horses in Zhuque Hall. Some of them are

The two horses were brought back from the northwest, would your Highness want to go and see them later?"

"Okay." Xiao Chengjun couldn't help but smile a little. Fortunately, he married a man and wouldn't argue with him about the ostentation while he was keeping a low profile.

Luotangfang, to the west of the palace, is a mansion built by Taizu during the founding of the People's Republic of China. It is inhabited by aristocratic families. As the only Duke of the state today, An Guogong is still favored by the Haoying family. The residence

It is naturally more elegant than other houses.

Anguo Gonglou Jianyu and his family had been waiting outside the gate for a long time. Although the prince usually did not show off his appearance, he was the prince after all and could not be neglected in the slightest.

The guards on horseback reined in their horses neatly, and the apricot-yellow canopy carriage stopped in the middle. The coachman got out of the carriage and led the horse.

It looks pleasing to the eye.

A corner of the apricot-yellow robe was poked out first. The prince, wearing apricot-yellow prince's regular clothes and a white jade crown with gold silk on his head, calmly stepped out of the carriage. He had a noble temperament and was not angry or authoritative.

Xiao Chengjun ignored the people who were standing in front of him and stretched out his hand to help the princess out of the car.

When he returned home today, Lou Jing didn't take any medicine to relieve the pain. The people in the Lou family knew that he was injured, so why did he insist on trying to save face for his father and stepmother? What his father did, he had to bear the consequences of it.

.

The new son-in-law is a prince, so the family members must kneel down to greet him. However, if the new son-in-law has a good temper, he can be exempted from this ceremony. Anguo Gonglou Jianyu waited and watched for a moment, and saw that the prince had no intention of skipping the courtesy. He waited upstairs

Jing stood firm and hurriedly led everyone to kneel down to greet her, "When I see Yu in the building, I will welcome the Crown Princess back with my family. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, will live a thousand years."

"Get up." His Highness the Crown Prince just supported his Crown Princess and showed no intention of stepping forward to help his father-in-law. Lou Jing stood beside the Crown Prince and watched her father kowtow to her, feeling very subtle in her heart.

When he returned to his parents' home, he needed to entertain guests. The prince's status was too high for the elders in Duke Shan An's mansion to hold him down, so Duke An invited several nobles related by marriage to come and accompany him. The banquet was divided into men's and women's tables, and the men were outside.

The woman stays with her aunt in the courtyard, and the woman stays with her aunt in the inner courtyard. Lou Jing is a man, so he doesn't have to sit at any table.

After paying homage to the ancestral hall, Lou Jing returned to Zhuque Hall on the grounds of feeling unwell.

Lou Jianyu readily agreed, thinking that if Lou Jing sat at the same table as them, something might happen. Then he smiled and invited the prince to drink tea in the main hall, waiting for the banquet to begin.

"Your Majesty, you are back!" The servants in the Zhuque Hall did not change. Gao Yi took the lead to greet him. He looked up and down and saw that Lou Jing was safe and sound, and was very happy.

"Go and call Mr. Cheng." Lou Jing sat down in the main hall of Zhuque Hall, and before taking a sip of tea, she asked Gao Yi to call his accountant.

Zhuque Hall has a separate set of accounts. The accountant is actually Lou Jing's adviser. His name is Cheng Xiuru. He is a failed scholar. Although he has been repeatedly frustrated in the imperial examination, he is an expert in managing accounts and making suggestions.

Good player.

"Your Majesty, Master Ming sent a message this morning." Yunba floated out from somewhere and handed a folded white paper to Lou Jing.

Lou Jing took it and opened it, and saw that the elegant and handsome font was written by Zhao Xi. There was only one sentence written on it, "On the ninth day of September, your wish will come true. Take the lottery first, don't miss it."

Lottery? Lou Jing's forehead twitched, "What did he take from me?"

"The sapphire pen washer on the prince's desk," Yun Ba said expressionlessly, "since Master Ming said that the prince forgot to fix the lottery number, he picked it himself."

"This is Zhao Jiu!" Lou Jing was helpless. His sapphire pen washer was carved from a whole piece of sapphire by a jade carving master. The bottom is a protruding pattern of fish playing with lotus. When filled with water, it looks like a real pond with lotus leaves.

Tingting, swimming fish shuttle, Zhao Xi has been thinking about that guy for a long time.

Lou Jing smiled and threw the note in his hand into the incense burner to burn it. He picked up the teacup and took a sip. A Confucian scholar about forty years old and wearing a green cloth robe walked in, holding several account books in his hand.

, "Your Majesty, you are back."

"Mr. Cheng, sit down." Lou Jing raised her hand to ask Cheng Xiuru to sit down. "Is there anything going on in the house recently?"

"The step-wife asked my subordinates for the account books twice, but they were all in vain." Cheng Xiuru sighed. The annual expenses of Zhuque Hall come from the public account, but the private property in Lou Jing's own hands is only recorded in the accounts of Zhuque Hall.

No wonder, as soon as the prince got married, his step-wife couldn't wait to take over the Suzaku Hall.

"She is impatient." Lou Jing sneered.

Cheng Xiuru put the account book in his hand on the table, "These are the accounts for Madam's dowry. The prince left in a hurry and didn't take them with him. In a few days, I will ask someone to send you the things in the warehouse to the East Palace."

These were Lou Jing's mother's dowry. Before his step-brother passed away, he took this part out and took care of it himself. The treasures and silver were locked in the warehouse, and the annual income from the land and shop was part of the Suzaku Hall's income.

Lou Jing lowered his eyes, tapped the account book with two fingers, and pushed it to Cheng Xiuru, "No, leave everything there. You can copy these accounts twice. You keep one, and send the other to the East Palace. Madam will ask for it again."

For the accounts of Suzaku Hall, please give this to her."

"What the prince means..." Cheng Xiuru couldn't help but sit up straight.
