For half a month, Lu Chi had not stepped foot into the fourth prince's residence, nor had he seen the fourth prince again.
However, now that the fourth prince has come to visit in person, he cannot avoid seeing him.
Lin Weiwei's wonderful eyes fell on Lu Chi's face and she asked softly: "Brother Lu, do you not want to see His Highness the Fourth Prince?"
Lu Chi and the fourth prince were classmates and even good friends. They had known each other for several years, and they had a good relationship and close contacts. It was almost unprecedented that they had not seen each other for half a month.
Why did Lu Chi suddenly become so alienated from the fourth prince?
Is it for a grand occasion? Or are there other reasons?
Under Lin Weiwei's attention, Lu Chi's expression remained as usual, not showing any signs of strangeness: "His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince and I are classmates, how come I don't want to see His Highness?"
There are some secrets that cannot be told at all.
He was also ashamed to speak out, so as not to offend his beloved wife's ears and make her even more worried.
Lin Weiwei couldn't see anything for a moment and didn't ask any more questions.
After a while, the fourth prince stepped in.
Lu Chi and Lin Weiwei came forward and saluted together: "I have met His Highness!"
The fourth prince's gloomy mood for the past few days suddenly became clear the moment he saw Lu Chi. A smile appeared on his usually cold and handsome face: "Ziyu is the number one scholar in high school. Congratulations! After I heard the good news, I immediately
Come to congratulate me."
Several chamberlains behind him all held thick brocade boxes in their hands.
Lu Chi smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
The book boy next to him stepped forward to receive the gift. Lu Chi invited the fourth prince to sit down. As a female family member, Lin Weiwei should have avoided suspicion. However, Lu Chi didn't mention anything today, so Lin Weiwei stayed shamelessly.
The fourth prince, on the other hand, felt that Lin Weiwei was an eyesore and glanced at her subconsciously.
Lin pursed her lips and smiled, sitting upright with a calm look on her face.
This is my husband-in-law. I am sitting next to him and no one can care about him.
The fourth prince's eyes dimmed and he turned to look at Lu Chi. After a few words, Lu Chi still had no intention of inviting him to the study alone.
The fourth prince suppressed the gloom and depression surging in his heart, sat for a while, then stood up and left.
Lu Chi and Lin Weiwei stood up together to see each other off.
Until they left, the fourth prince did not find a chance to talk to Lu Chi alone.
…
As soon as the fourth prince left, the seventh prince and his wife came together.
Sheng Hong and Lu Chi had a normal relationship, but Xie Mingxi and Lin Weiwei were close friends and had an irreversible friendship. Xie Mingxi wanted to come to congratulate her, so Sheng Hong simply came too.
Lu Chi politely invited Sheng Hong to the study.
Xie Mingxi and Lin Weiwei went to the inner room to talk.
"The fourth prince just came to congratulate him, but Brother Lu didn't invite him to the study to talk." Lin Weiwei frowned slightly and lowered his voice and said, "I always feel that Brother Lu seems to have noticed something."
Otherwise, given Lu Chi's temperament, he would not suddenly be so cold and alienated from his friends.
Xie Mingxi said calmly: "It would be best if he noticed something and took the initiative to alienate the fourth prince."
Lin Weiwei sighed again: "In the past half month, he has been worried a lot, and he still pretends to be nonchalant in front of me. I see it, so I can only pretend not to notice anything."
It's really depressing.
Xie Mingxi patted the back of Lin Weiwei's hand gently and said warmly: "It's better not to tell anyone about this matter. Let Lu Chi handle the matter by himself. You act like you don't know anything about it."
After a pause, he whispered again: "Sister Lin, you have to be more careful in the future. Especially the food you eat, you have to be careful."
The meaning behind the words is shocking.
Lin Weiwei's expression changed, and she grabbed Xie Mingxi's hand: "Sister Xie, what do you mean..."
Xie Mingxi took a deep look at Lin Weiwei: "Sister Lin, you should know what I mean."
When a wise person speaks, there is no need to speak too clearly, just to the point.
Lin Weiwei really understood.
It is precisely because I understand that I am even more frightened.
Does the fourth prince still dare to attack her? Women are jealous, and they can do anything out of jealousy. Could it be that love prevents the fourth prince from developing dark and twisted thoughts?
The more Lin Weiwei thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she subconsciously grabbed Xie Mingxi's hand tightly.
Due to the excessive strength, Xie Mingxi's hand was inevitably a little too strong. There was a burst of pain when Xie Mingxi's hand was grabbed, but she did not make a sound. She only said softly: "Sister Lin, don't be afraid."
"Even if he wants to take action, he will never dare to do it openly. He will only do it secretly."
"You know what you are doing, so you need to clear out the people around you first. Be sure to keep the most reliable people to serve you closely. Pay attention to your food, clothing, housing, and transportation. You are pregnant now, so there are many things you should avoid. You should be even more careful about what you eat."
Lin Wei took a deep breath and nodded.
…
In this subject Chunwei, Lu Chi was the top scholar in high school.
The person who came second in the exam was Zhao Qi.
The boy who won the lottery was Ye Jingzhi, a student from a poor family.
Li Mo ranked slightly lower, and was also a second-class Jinshi. Qin Sihun's husband, Chen Zhan, ranked lower, and was the last of the second class. Xie Lanxi's husband, Xiao Yufan, unfortunately fell into the third class, commonly known as
Tong Jinshi.
However, the same Jinshi is also a Jinshi, so it is really a happy event to be able to get the top 300 in the Three Thousand Juzi examination in public.
Among the new scholars, many young people have emerged. Among the top three in the first class, Lu Chi, the oldest, is only in his early years. The youngest is undoubtedly Ye Jingzhi, who is only eighteen years old this year and has not yet been engaged.
Such a young and handsome man has not yet married a wife?
After careful consideration, the important ministers in the court felt that the Ye family had no foundation and was not suitable for marriage, and there was no grand scene of competing for a son-in-law. However, several officials with lower official positions admired the young and successful Ye Jingzhi, and they also showed that
The intention of getting married.
After Ye Qiuniang finished her confinement, she entered the Seventh Prince's Mansion with her husband Yu An.
Ye Qiuniang was so happy that her younger brother was a top prospect in high school, so she took a day off and returned to Ye's house.
Ye Qiuniang went home happily, but came back in the evening feeling depressed.
Xie Mingxi glanced at it and felt something strange. She smiled and asked casually: "Master Ye won the lottery. Why is it that you are not happy at such a happy event, but you are full of sadness?"
Ye Qiuniang smiled helplessly: "I dare not hide it from the seventh prince. The second brother studied hard and never got engaged. Now that he has won the lottery, there are a few people who have secretly expressed their intention to get married. I went back today just to ask him.
, what exactly do you mean?"
"I didn't expect that my second brother actually said he didn't want to get married."
The eighteen-year-old boy is really not too young. He is not sure about getting married yet. As a biological sister, Ye Qiuniang, there is no reason to be in a hurry.
Xie Mingxi laughed dumbly.
It turned out to be something like this.
"Maybe it's because fate hasn't arrived yet, or maybe it's because he's been studying for a long time and hasn't reached Mu Shaoai's age yet." Xie Mingxi smiled casually: "Maybe, after a year and a half, he will figure it out on his own. Crying
She's shouting that she wants to get married, and you can't stop her even if you want."
