When leaving the palace, Lu Xun was carrying a basket in his hand, which was full of pomegranates. Even at this moment, his feet were a little fluttery.
I thought about many possibilities, but I never thought that the princess would agree to the marriage. I really can't believe it.
How could the princess be willing? The children of the aristocratic families who have surrounded the princess since she was a child are either unparalleledly handsome or talented. On the other hand, she is mediocre in appearance and can only lead troops to fight. So, what does the princess see in her?
When he returned to the General's Mansion, he saw Lu Chen leaning against the door and whistling at him.
"Hey, I'm back."
Seeing his younger brother leaning at the door, Lu Xun said calmly: "I'm not on duty today."
Lu Chen nodded, "Well, I have a day off today. How about it? Brother, have you met the princess?"
After hearing this, Lu Xun subconsciously tightened his grip on the basket.
"Yes, I saw it."
Lu Chen was curious, "What did the princess say?"
Lu Xun: "That's it."
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows, "That's it, is there a whip for you?" As far as he knew, if Princess Zhaohua didn't want to do something, even if the imperial edict was issued, it might fall through. Maybe she would just wave it when she saw her elder brother.
Serving with a whip, as a big brother, he will definitely not fight back when hit or scolded. Maybe after being beaten, the other party will ask, "Princess, are you tired?"
After hearing this, Lu Xun frowned and said, "That's nonsense. The princess is well-educated and sensible. How could this happen?" In fact, Her Royal Highness is quite good.
The imperial edict has been issued, and the princess has agreed. From now on, she will be his fiancée. Thinking of Zhaohua, Lu Xun's face became slightly warm.
"Know the book and be courteous."
Damn it!!!
Lu Chen's eyes widened and he didn't believe what he heard. She was well-educated and sensible. This was the Princess Zhaohua he knew. Shouldn't she be unreasonable and unruly and willful? However, having said that, Princess Zhaohua has indeed grown up in the past two years.
A lot.
All this must be attributed to the emperor, who made Zhaohua suffer a little and became a lot more sensible after that. Now, she will do some things within her own power. I think back then, Princess Zhaohua didn't touch the spring water.
"Here you go." Lu Xun reached out and took a pomegranate from the basket and put it in his brother's arms.
Lu Chen glanced at the pomegranate in his hand, "Is this pomegranate from the pomegranate tree in Zhaohua Palace?"
Lu Xun nodded, "Yes." He picked it himself. At first, he didn't want it, but the princess asked him to pick it.
Lu Chen was surprised. He glanced at the basket he was carrying and asked, "You picked so many?" Princess Zhaohua planted them herself when she was a child, and she usually has a special palace person to take care of them. She can't tell how many fruits they will bear.
There are records.
Sure enough, the treatment of the consort is different.
"Brother, just give me one."
Lu Chen stretched out his hand to grab one, but his outstretched hand was instantly grabbed by Lu Xun.
"Not enough points."
The implication is that it is impossible to get more.
This was a reward from the princess, but he himself was reluctant to eat it.
"Brother, you are stingy."
Lu Xun walked around his younger brother and said, "I'm going to see my mother first."
Lu Chen waved his hand, "Go!"
Until his eldest brother left, Lu Chen looked at the pomegranate in his hand and couldn't help but grab a handful of hair.
Her Highness the Princess, who is unable to do anything and eats everything without any leftovers, will be his sister-in-law from now on.
The pigeons, turtles, tortoises, etc. he raises are all his darlings. He must not fall into the hands of Her Royal Highness in the future. Go back and talk to your eldest brother.
