55, Kunning Palace
"Hidden Tent" 55
Chen Shishi held the basin and pretended to serve Lu Jiuxiao after washing up, and then he honestly carried the water to sprinkle the floor.
Lu Wan stood outside the door and looked through the gap for a while.
This time she was dragged by He Min to "spy the military information". He Min disdained the fox charming man who came out of the flower alley, as if she would have dirty her mouth by mentioning her one more word, but what about it?
I don’t care about how others captured her brother’s heart that was so soft and hard.
It is true that Lu Wan is unwilling to do such unfair things at all. But she and He Min met since childhood. Although they were not very loyal, they could not stand her scrupulousness, so they had to reluctantly respond.
However, when you look at this distance, you really can't find out why. How to understand a person naturally requires contact in person.
Therefore, Lu Wan thought about it and pulled a passing maid, whispered in her ear, and then went back to Lanyuan to wait.
Within a quarter of an hour, the sunken scepter appeared here.
The maid took her to Lanyuan gate and disappeared, leaving her alone in a daze at the plaque with the word "Lan".
She gently pushed the door and saw Lu Wan sitting on the stone bench, holding a leaf shading the sun. When she saw her coming, Lu Wan immediately put down the banana leaf in her hand and sat firmly.
Chen Shishi slowly walked towards her, his face still a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, both of them tacitly thought that nothing had happened.
Lu Wan stretched her wrist, "I've been a little dizzy recently. The doctor in the mansion has just returned to the countryside today. I heard that you know some medical skills. My brother's cold is for you to see. Why don't you see it for me?"
The master's instructions, as she was, there was absolutely no reason to obey, so she quickly sat down and put on her wrist.
After a while, I looked at it carefully, but I didn't see any mistakes.
Chen Shishi thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's hot recently, and if the second girl feels dizzy, it's better to keep it under the scorching sun."
"That's how..."
Lu Wan nodded absent-mindedly and looked at the person calmly while he was talking.
First of all, this face. He Min couldn't learn it even if she wanted to learn it. Then there was this figure. The waist that Yingying held, she was hungry for ten days and a half months, and she still had hope, but her breasts...
How is this good?
But men like women, they always go beyond the surface. Lu Wan thought that since they cannot learn externally, they can always learn internally.
But after talking to Chen Shiying, she spoke softly, and her eyebrows and eyes seemed to be filled with autumn water. Every word was touched into people's hearts with a little "silent" sound, coupled with this soft voice and tone...
Compare with He Min's whining young lady.
If she is her brother, she must like the one in front of her.
Lu Wan pulled Chen Shixi and talked about it, but forgot her purpose for a moment. It has to be said that Chen Shixi grew up in a not-so-rich family, and her experience is much more exciting than a lady like Lu Wan.
For example, she would order goods to settle accounts, and even check with the patient. She followed her father to go to a very high mountain to collect medicine, and so on.
Lu Wan was so shocked that she heard it. When she heard something, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Do you still know how to paint landscapes?"
Chen Shiqi nodded, "I learned some."
"Do you know how to play the guqin?"
She shook her head.
Lu Wan said happily: "Then come to my yard if you have time. I will teach you the guqin. Can you draw me? My mother assigns tasks to me every few days. Everyone knows that painting takes time, and I haven't rested for several days."
Chen Shifeng was slightly stunned. Before she could refuse, Lu Wan stuffed her a box of unopened pancakes, "I've agreed to you."
When she was about to send Chen Shifeng out of the yard, she said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't mention you to my mother."
Having said this, Chen Shiqi had to nod and thank him, "Thank you the second girl."
Lu Wan waved her hand.
Looking at the other party's slim figure leaving, Lu Wan suddenly felt that the brothel women in the book were all nonsense, and she did not see any dusty energy from Chen Shishi.
On the contrary, there is a hint of nobleness in vaguely.
------------
At the same time, Lu Jiuxiao barely crossed the Meridian Gate.
After passing through countless vermilion gates and spacious palace roads, on a lawn behind Fanghua Garden, the princes and the noble families have put on strong clothes and sit on the back of the horse.
The fifth prince swung his last shot, and the gongs and drums beat, and he won.
The highest position was covered by the bead curtain, and you could vaguely see the corner of the bright yellow clothes. At this moment, the fifth prince rode a horse to Lu Jiuxiao, and he turned over and got off the horse and said, "You are late. I didn't see that I have won seven goals in a row. Even my father applauded me!"
The fifth prince is the son of Concubine Zhao and is also very popular in the palace. He is a little playful and heartless, which makes people happy to get along with him.
Lu Jiuxiao raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it a little feast? Why is the emperor here too?"
"Oh, he heard on the way that I had a Cuju banquet and said he wanted to come and have a look."
Lu Jiuxiao said softly, his eyes fell tightly on the crimson official robe beside the Supreme Lord, and he said lazily: "Where is Duke Li?"
The fifth prince glanced at the other end, "He was discussing matters with his father. When his father was about to come, he had no choice but to join in."
Lu Jiuxiao nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
He stepped forward to invite the emperor to rest. When he saw him, Emperor Xuanwu's calm face added a little smile, and Duke Li saw it.
Emperor Xuanwu said: "Miner and others are shooting there. I haven't seen you pull the bow for a long time. Why, I've come here and don't show my hands?"
Following Emperor Xuanwu's gaze, he saw Zhao Huaimin holding a bow and crossbow. Looking at his posture, his ring number was far ahead and he was heading here with a proud look on his face.
Lu Jiuxiao bent his lips and at the warning of Emperor Xuanwu, he took the bow - crossbow and quiver handed over by the eunuch.
Emperor Xuanwu left his seat with great shame and walked to a spacious place to take a closer look. As a result, Duke Li had to stay by his side.
Such a big show made everyone on the side stop moving and turn their heads to look over.
The crowd is full of troubles—
"This Lu Jiuxiao really showed off everywhere, and he refused to restrain himself even in front of the saint."
"They are favored by the emperor. No matter how bad the arrow technique is, can they still win the favor of the emperor?"
"Swish, do you think his archery skills are bad? If you don't ask, he can pull the priest's Baili Bow when he was nine years old. Do you know the Baili Bow? How many people can pull it away?"
"How long has it been since he touched the bow-cross? No matter how superb he is, he is still a child. Look, don't lose too badly in a while!"
Among the many opinions, the prince's wrist was turned and the arrow pointed straight at Duke Li on the long steps.
Everyone was shocked, and even Emperor Xuanwu's face changed.
The fifth prince shouted, "Hey, you pointed the wrong direction, the target is in front."
Duke Li looked straight at the person on the horse's back, and saw that the corners of his mouth were curled up indefinitely, and his eyes were full of provocation.
He stood with his hands behind his back and didn't hide. He didn't believe it. Lu Jiuxiao really dared to shoot this arrow!
However, he couldn't help but believe it. As soon as he finished thinking in his heart, the arrow took off his hand and headed straight for him.
The scene was once panicked.
But the arrow was seen barely passing through Duke Li's shoulder, rubbing his shoulder clothes, and shooting towards a rat not far away.
The mouse was still holding the fruit stolen from somewhere in his mouth, and he barely rolled to the feet of Emperor Xuanwu.
Emperor Xuanwu looked at the dead rat, then looked at the fruit at his feet, then looked up at Lu Jiuxiao, and didn't know whether to praise him or scold him for a moment.
Before he could speak, Lu Jiuxiao turned over and dismounted and said first: "Why are there black rats in this Fanghua Garden? What if the emperor's shoes are dirty?"
After saying that, he turned his head and glanced at Duke Li's shoulders, and smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Duke Guo, you won't be skeptical about me, are you?"
Duke Li was stuffy in his chest, "I don't know."
"That's good."
In a few words, Emperor Xuanwu shook his head, said softly, "Nonsense", and then returned to the meal.
The farce ended barely.
Meng Jingheng ran from a distance, walked out to the guest seat side by side with him, and muttered, "What's wrong with Duke Li? Do you want to point the arrow at someone?"
Lu Jiuxiao pulled the corner of his mouth but did not answer.
In that case, Duke Li sat with the emperor without saying a word.
Lu Jiuxiao's move is nothing more than telling him one thing-
He knew everything about the assassination sent by the Li family along the way.
Let’s look at Lu Jiuxiao’s body just now, it’s not as weak as he should be.
Duke Li's expression was slightly dark, and then he realized that he was fooled by this kid.
But even if Lu Jiuxiao knew what the mastermind behind the scenes could do, what evidence could he have? If there was any evidence, I would have reported him early, so why would he even scare him with arrows?
And he didn't know the reason, so he might be confused.
Thinking of this, Duke Li calmed down.
------------
The clear sky suddenly changed, and it suddenly started to rain, and the small banquet quickly dispersed.
Lu Jiuxiao followed the fifth prince to his palace to drink until late at night before he barely left the palace.
The night was heavy, the palace was quiet, and the eunuch was silently holding an umbrella beside Lu Jiuxiao.
The man was behind his back, playing with his mysterious gold folding fan, with a depressed expression, not knowing whether he was drunk or not.
The eunuch's nose wings fluttered, but he was not very drunk. However, he still asked with all his duty: "Class Lu, the rain is slippery, do you want to drive out of the palace by taking a sedan chair?"
Lu Jiuxiao was about to speak, but when he raised his eyes, he saw a red official robe flashing through his eyes on the path opposite. He suddenly stopped and his eyebrows were pressing lightly, which was the direction of Kunning Palace.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and took the handle of the umbrella from the eunuch's hand, "Okay, I'll go by myself, you can go back."
The eunuch was stunned and said, "Crown Prince Lu, I have to wait until I see you leave the palace."
"Can you leave?" His tone subsided, and his face was not very good-looking.
The eunuch was shocked and remembered the scene in Fanghua Garden just now. He swallowed, lit his head and hurried back along the way.
Only then did Lu Jiuxiao put away his umbrella, his black robe hid into the night, and followed the crimson shadow all the way to Kunning Palace.
After a moment, Duke Li walked around the small door on the side of Kunning Palace. Someone opened the lock for him, and soon he disappeared in front of the door.
Lu Jiuxiao raised his eyebrows lightly, and the foreign minister went to the inner court privately, which was a serious crime. Moreover, when did the brother and sister want to meet, it was not enough, it was late at night?
