Lu Xingyue turned to look at Shen Lansui and said flatly: "No."
Liang Ci smiled and covered the tea cup, stood up and said, "If you are like this, why do you need to persuade me?"
Lu Xingyue nodded, "I'm not trying to persuade you, I just want you to see clearly."
"I know exactly what I am doing. The tea is very good. Thank you both for your hospitality. I will send you a greeting card next time I come to visit. Farewell."
Just as Shen Lansui moved, Liang Ci said, "It's cold, so there's no need to send her off. You two will stay."
After saying that, he strode away, his back looking much more relaxed than when he came.
Shen Lansui sat back with peace of mind, looked at his back and said with emotion: "Speaking of which, the prince and the fifth prince are not as good as Princess Rong Zhao. She is scheming but has her own methods, is dignified and has royal majesty. If a woman can become the emperor, , she is the best choice, and she is not so suspicious. If she is a monarch, she might really be able to lead Daheng to a prosperous age."
The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention.
Lu Xingyue suddenly became enlightened as if he was enlightened.
Princess Rong Zhao also has a good relationship with Shen Lansui. By letting her take power, at least she won't worry about Shen Lansui's safety.
Although there is no precedent for a woman to be emperor in Daheng, there is a precedent for the eldest princess to supervise the country. It would not be a bad idea to follow the example of the predecessors and let the seventh prince ascend the throne with Princess Rong Zhao assisting him.
But it’s still a bit early to think about this now.
Especially since the prince is the biological brother of the princess and His Highness Seventh Prince, if he wants the seventh prince to ascend the throne, he must be deposed first, and they will definitely not agree.
This idea can only be realized if the right time, place and people are in place.
Therefore, Lu Xingyue didn't say anything and suppressed the idea in his heart.
He remembered another thing.
"How is your Gu insect doing?"
Lu Xingyue walked to the couch and sat down. Shen Lansui's eyes widened slightly, "I was about to tell you about this. Can you read minds?"
Lu Xingyue smiled: "No, I just keep it in mind."
"I suspect you are talking about love, but I have no evidence." Shen Lansui smiled, and then said seriously: "I can completely control it now, but I have no experience in this area, please help me keep an eye on it. .”
"Okay." Lu Xingyue asked, "What should I do?"
Shen Lansui called to watch the spring and enjoy the summer, and asked them to get a silver knife and a small porcelain cup, as well as a clean handkerchief and warm water. Everything was ready. Shen Lansui rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll have it later." If I make a cut on it, I will force the Gu worm out of the wound, but if the head of the Gu worm comes out first, I'm afraid it will lose control and shrink back, so I need you to help me catch it out at this time!"
She raised her chin towards the golden needle on the side, "Prick this into its body and pick it out."
Lu Xingyue nodded, his face solemn.
Watching spring and enjoying summer were driven outside, and Shen Lansui took matters into his own hands.
She roasted the knife on the fire, gestured with her hand to find its position, gritted her teeth and made a small cut. The blood flowed out instantly, and drips fell on the small plate prepared by Shen Lansui in advance.
Shen Lansui closed his eyes to activate his powers, but did not see Lu Xingyue's expression as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
The supernatural power traps the Gu insect in a ball, drives it to the arm, and then crawls along the blood vessels of the arm to the palm. This process seems slow, but in fact it only takes a few breaths.
The blood was flowing out, and the Gu worm couldn't stop even if it wanted to, so it was forced to move forward together.
Soon Lu Xingyue saw something as thin as a hair squirming around the wound. If he hadn't stared intently, he wouldn't have noticed it. The color of that little thing was exactly the same as human blood.
He held the golden needle and quickly picked it up, then turned it around twice, and directly entangled the poisonous bug on the golden needle. There was no way, it was too thin and could not be pricked at all, so he could only use this method to entangle it and pick it out. .
Fortunately, this thing didn't grow too long, and it was picked out in a short time.
Shen Lan looked inside her body and cycled through her powers to make sure that the poisonous insects were not broken in her body, and then she allowed her wounds to heal.
Seeing the hole disappear with his own eyes, Lu Xingyue's face looked better. He threw the Gu worm aside into a porcelain cup and cut it into several sections with a golden needle. Seeing the Gu worm struggling to death, Lu Xingyue said to himself Not happy.
"This disgusting thing should have been exterminated long ago."
Shen Lansui took a look, raised his eyebrows and said, "It seems to be a little longer, a bit longer than what I saw before."
Lu Xingyue's expression turned bad again. He waited for the Gu insects to stop moving completely, but still worried, he used a small silver knife to cut off a section of the wick of the oil lamp and threw it into a porcelain cup. The flames started to burn, and he cut off the broken pieces. The Gu insect corpse was burned to a little bit of ashes.
At this point, he was completely relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Lansui watched his series of actions, put his hand in the copper basin and washed it, wiped off the blood stains and smiled, "It's okay, it was always in a deep sleep state when it was in my body, and it couldn't do anything. I I don’t feel it at all, and I often forget that there is such a thing.”
"If I had feelings, I wouldn't be here now." Lu Xingyue picked up the handkerchief and wiped the water for her.
Shen Lansui was puzzled, "Where are you if you're not here?"
Lu Xingyue raised his eyes to look at her and said solemnly: "The Fifth Prince's Mansion."
She was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help laughing and said: "What are you doing? To get angry for a beauty?"
Lu Xingyue lowered his head and said nothing.
Shen Lansui touched his hair, "Okay, it's completely fine this time, don't worry, eh?"
Lu Xingyue held her hand and waited for a while before saying, "Yes."
However, his disgust for the poisonous insects was still there. He asked Zhou Quan to smash the small porcelain cup that contained the poisonous insects and then find a place to bury it deeply.
All other things that had come into contact with the Gu bugs were also dealt with.
Shen Lansui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she also knew where his heart was, so she let him go without persuading him.
The two lived peacefully and happily for a few days, but Lu Xingyue was suddenly summoned to the palace by the emperor.
Shen Lansui waited for a long time. When she fell asleep, she vaguely felt someone lifting her quilt. She woke up with a start. The room was dark. The person next to her paused and whispered: "I disturbed you." Already?"
"Why did you come back?" Shen Lansui closed his eyes again, moved inside, and patted the place beside him.
Lu Xingyue felt soft and quickly went to bed.
He was still covered in hot and humid moisture, and he must have just come out of the bathroom.
Shen Lansui subconsciously leaned towards him.
"What did the emperor ask you to do?"
Lu Xingyue put his arms around her and said warmly: "Let me go investigate a case. I may have to leave the capital for a few days."
Hearing this, Shen Lansui suddenly woke up, "Lidu? Where to go? How many days is it?"
Lu Xingyue shook his head, "I can't say where I'm going. I'm not sure for a few days. It depends on the situation there."
He lowered his head and kissed Shen Lansui's warm face, "Sorry, I can't say these things."
