62, Qi Qiao Festival(1/2)
"Hidden Tent" 62
Shen Shishibo decocted the medicine and returned. After serving Lu Jiuxiao, he left and slept with him in the main room.
She used to put on her middle clothes and climbed to the inside.
The night was very peaceful, and it made people wonder.
And after that night, Lu Jiuxiao became very strange.
He still looked arrogant and arrogant on weekdays, but behind his back, he asked Qin Yi to collect a lot of items and food, avoided the maid and sent it to the servant's room secretly.
For example, the bracelets and hairpins in Zhenbao Pavilion, the refreshing and crispy hairpins in Wangjiang Tower, the newly-entered cicada silk skirts in Yifang, as well as rouge powder, bottles and jars, piled up with small countertops...
But when he was in front of him, Lu Jiuxiao did not mention it, as if he had never done such a thing.
Chen Shizi tentatively mentioned the word "powder" and was interrupted by him.
He didn't want to say it, so she had to swallow the words back and secretly hurt herself. She thought about it for two days, but she didn't figure out any tricks.
Now that I was stroking Lu Wan's strings, I played several wrong notes one after another.
When the last "shock" sounded, Lu Wan finally interrupted her, "What's wrong with you?"
In the entire Marquis’ Mansion, Lu Wan was only familiar with her. After being caught by Lu Jiuxiao on the spot on the spot, the two were considered life-and-death friendship.
So when Lu Wan asked, she hesitated for a while, and then asked, "What's wrong with the prince recently?"
She even thought that the medicine she gave Lu Jiuxiao had any unknown side effects, which made her look up again and then calm down.
When Lu Wan heard this, she was stunned for a moment and leaned forward hesitantly and said, "Did Guard Qin send it to her personally?"
Shen Shiqi nodded.
Since it was given by Guard Qin himself, it must have been instructed by Lu Jiuxiao himself. Combined with her earnest and honest advice the day before yesterday, Lu Wan quickly understood what was going on.
She said "Hmm" and said, "You don't like the ones my brother gave me?"
Chen Shizi frowned, "Not that, it's a bit confusing to understand the prince's thoughts."
"What's so puzzling about?" Lu Wan said, "He likes to give it, you just take it."
Chen Shishi nodded slowly. What else can she do? Can she refuse him?
After a moment, she calmed down and played the song Lu Wan taught her again. After wiping the strings of the piano, she returned to Songyuan.
Lu Wan looked at the bright strings and sighed softly. How could this woman's heart be able to be closed by three or two objects?
Her brother is thinking too beautifully!
And I just gave it away, pretending that nothing happened. Could it be that Miss Chen thought it was given by Guard Qin?
If this continues, I am afraid I will be in vain.
Lu Wan held her cheek and thought about it, then suddenly raised her eyes, "Tang Li."
The maid in purple responded quickly.
"Is the Qiqiao Festival coming?"
"Miss, it's the fifth day of the seventh month, and it's here in two days."
------------
Recently, Lu Jiuxiao often entered the palace to play chess with Emperor Xuanwu. After carefully studying a few chess scores, his chess skills improved a lot. Emperor Xuanwu was very happy and said that he was extremely smart since childhood and praised him.
Therefore, he also gave him a village with a hot spring pool.
It's simply envious to others. If you can get a farmhouse after playing chess with the emperor for a few games, I'll ask who else?
The matter soon spread. On the evening of the sixth day of the seventh month, Meng Jingheng came to the door.
After three sentences explaining the purpose of the trip, Lu Jiuxiao glanced at him, "What do you want to borrow that Zhuangzi?"
"Isn't tomorrow a beggar festival? I think that Yao's wife has suffered a grievance because of me, she always needs to make up for it. But those little girls like to parade and watch the lanterns. She has been tired of it. Isn't your farm there a hot spring pool? It's very suitable to adjust the love."
Lu Jiuxiao paused for a moment. Does the little girl like to parade and watch the lanterns?
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Meng Jingheng urged: "Do you borrow it?"
"The key is Yin Zhong." He responded perfunctorily.
Meng Jingheng left happily.
Lu Jiuxiao sat quietly and thought for a while before returning to the house.
At night, he kept her on the bed and put his arms around her slender waist as usual, and could feel the ups and downs of the little girl's breathing.
I can only say that people’s habits need to be developed slowly.
He is, so is she.
After twisting the girl's earlobe for a while, Lu Jiuxiao coughed lightly, breaking the silence of the late night.
"I'm going out tomorrow night, you can go with me."
“Where to go?”
Lu Jiuxiao paused for a moment. He couldn't say anything to take her to parade and enjoy the lanterns. So he swallowed it back as soon as he reached his mouth.
The man casually said "Hmm" and said seriously: "Look for a seriously injured prisoner."
Hearing this, Chen Shifeng's sleepiness suddenly dissipated, he stretched his eyes slightly, and said curiously: "Isn't it a yamen runner's business? Why is the prince looking for it himself?"
Lu Jiuxiao said seriously: "It is not advisable to make a big splash for prisoners who are extraordinary."
Shen Shishi nodded and nodded.
After a moment of silence, Lu Jiuxiao rubbed her waist and said, "Go to sleep."
Seeing his movements, Chen Shizi hurriedly closed his eyes, fearing that he would be interested again and wanted to torment her until late at night.
------------
The next morning, Lu Jiuxiao went to the suburbs of Beijing and personally checked several villages to ensure that they were foolproof. He Lin was informed of the address.
He said, "I've done everything in the upper and lower levels."
He Lin glanced at the lines of handwriting and nodded.
Lu Jiuxiao leaned against his desk and asked, "If the second prince leaves Jiyang, are you sure you won't be discovered?"
"The raccoon just changed to the prince. He said to the outside world that he was seriously ill and was bedridden. The emperor has never cared about Jiyang in recent years. The emperor is far away and cannot be heard from him."
Lu Jiuxiao said "成" and looked up at the dim afterglow gradually faded, so he had no intention of staying. He left the west wing room, walked towards the back door, and walked around half an alley before returning to the Hou's Mansion.
On the other end, Shen Shizi had already prepared the medicine box.
Since he was a seriously injured prisoner, Lu Jiuxiao took her with him and must have immediate treatment.
Therefore, when he saw the little girl wearing a white dress and a hood and carrying a medicine box to set off, he stumbled slightly and said, "Yin Zhong and Qin Yi followed in the secret. The medicine box is ready. You put this thing back and change into more lively clothes. Tonight, I am begging for tricks. Others wear red and green. You are just plain in your clothes. Wouldn't it be eye-catching?"
What he said was not without reason. Shen Shiqi responded quickly and changed into a lotus root powder skirt.
The little girl is born brightly, and her lotus root powder makes her look extremely delicate. If she can apply some powder, she will have a different style.
However, Lu Jiuxiao could not find an excuse to ask her to go back and apply makeup, so he had to lead her into the carriage.
When the carriage arrived at Ying'an Avenue, both of them got off.
This place is prosperous tonight, unlike before. A circus platform was set up on the west side of the street, and gongs and drums were set up on the east side, which was very noisy.
This situation doesn't seem to be able to catch people.
Chen Shiqi frowned, "Crown Prince, are you sure the person you are looking for here?"
Lu Jiuxiao said perfunctorily.
Going westward, there are many shops. Lu Jiuxiao walked and stopped, without looking for anyone.
At first, Chen Shiying was still interested in paying attention to the movements in the crowd for him, but at the end, he was dazzled by the noisy scene.
Especially those exquisite little sugar people, no little girl can resist taking a look.
But she only glanced at it and looked straight ahead.
Lu Jiuxiao smiled in his heart, pulled her forearm, and walked towards the stall.
"Quick, choose one."
He looked at these villains on display, and he really didn't know what was good about them. The crowds here were crowded, making his ears hurt, and he couldn't help but feel a little restless when he spoke.
But at the moment, Chen Shiqi was full of surprise and automatically ignored those.
She picked a candy man who looked like a ferocious beast.
Lu Jiuxiao paid the bill and the two continued to move forward.
He glanced at the little girl who put the candy man into the veil, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He couldn't imagine that in his lifetime, he would have another day to accompany the little girl to the lantern festival.
It's really rare.
At this moment, a few girls whispers came from the noisy crowd.
"Hey, is that Prince Lu? How could he be here? I never saw him in the Lantern Festival in previous years."
