Whatever Jin Yiwei is doing when he goes out must be important, and it will be kept secret until the results come out.
Shen Lansui understood and asked in a different way: "Is it dangerous?"
Lu Xingyue said softly: "It's nothing. I have brought enough people. They don't dare to attack the Jinyiwei. It might not be that serious. Once you attack the Jinyiwei, it will be an added crime. Most people will not try it easily."
Shen Lan was relieved after hearing what he said. She turned around in Lu Xingyue's arms, raised her hand to touch his sharp eyebrows, and asked warmly, "Are you leaving tomorrow?"
Lu Xingyue nodded.
Shen Lansui didn't ask any more questions. She came up and pecked Lu Xingyue on the lips, "Go to sleep. Go and come back early."
"Okay." Lu Xingyue smiled softly.
*
After a night of silence, Lu Xingyue woke up at dawn the next morning. He stood up quietly, fearing to wake Shen Lansui, but as soon as he got off the bed, Shen Lansui opened his eyes and asked in a daze: "Are you leaving? "
Lu Xingyue felt weak when he saw her unable to open her eyes, "Well, you continue to sleep."
"Well..." Shen Lansui responded vaguely, but still got up, feeling a little melancholy.
We have just established a relationship, but we haven't been intimate enough yet, so we are about to separate.
Thinking of this, she no longer felt sleepy and slowly sat up.
Lu Xingyue put on his shoes and turned around. He saw her getting up and asked in surprise, "Aren't you going to sleep?"
"Well, I'll send you away."
Shen Lansui stood up, grabbed the clothes on one side and put them on, stood in front of Lu Xingyue and looked at it, raised her hand to pull his collar, and smiled after a moment, "I suddenly understood those poems. When I read them before, I always felt It's too exaggerated. Now that I have reached this moment, I realize how sad every word is."
Lu Xingyue stretched out his hand and pulled the person into his arms. He put his chin on her shoulder and gently rubbed her ear, "Which sentence?"
Shen Lansui was silent for a moment, smiled slyly, and whispered: "The thread in the hands of the loving mother, the clothes on the wanderer's body, are tightly sewed before leaving, I am afraid I will return later (1)."
Lu Xingyue: "..."
"This is how I feel right now."
After Shen Lansui finished speaking, she felt her waist being loosened. Lu Xingyue lowered his eyes and looked at her, with a dangerous smile in his clear eyes. He raised his hand and pinched Shen Lansui's nose. Smiling and asked: "Loving mother?"
Shen Lansui quickly shrank back, "I mean the mood, the mood is the same!"
The two quarreled for a while before Lu Xingyue went to freshen up, took a few bites of food and then got ready to set off.
Everything he would need for this trip had been packed in advance, so Lu Xingyue packed lightly and only brought his own knife.
Shen Lansui walked him all the way to the gate. Horses were prepared outside the gate and Zhou Quan accompanied him. Mulang stayed at home to protect Shen Lansui.
The other Jin Yiwei stood behind and greeted Shen Lansui politely.
Shen Lansui returned the greeting with a smile, turned around, took the cloak and said to Lu Xingyue: "Lower your head."
Lu Xingyue leaned over obediently. She flicked the cloak and put it on his shoulders. She tied a knot nimbly with her fingers. Then she put on the hat for him. She took out a pair of gloves and said, "There are thick stitches inside." It's a layer of rabbit fur, it should be quite warm, so wear it well so your hands don't freeze."
The people on the side looked at it with envy.
Lu Xingyue was wrapped up tightly, he couldn't laugh or cry, and he felt very comforted.
It turns out that this is how it feels to be remembered by your sweetheart all the time.
After Lu Xingyue put on his gloves and made sure nothing was missing, Shen Lansui took a step back and said, "Go ahead, have a nice trip."
Lu Xingyue nodded, a bit of reluctance flashed across his face with only one pair of eyes visible, but he could not delay any longer.
He made up his mind to stop looking at Shen Lansui, turned around and said, "Let's go!"
Zhou Quan and the Jin Yiwei immediately got on their horses, but Lu Xingyue held the reins for a while, then suddenly turned around and strode back, his cloak rising and falling in the wind.
Shen Lansui was stunned, "Did you forget something?"
Lu Xingyue nodded, "Forgot."
"What--"
Before Shen Lansui finished speaking, Lu Xingyue hugged her tightly and hugged her.
She looked at Lu Xingyue in surprise, but all she saw was a pair of eyes as gentle as spring waves. After a while, he put her down and said in a deep voice, "I'm leaving, wait until I come back."
"Okay." Shen Lansui nodded, suddenly feeling strong reluctance in his heart.
This time Lu Xingyue didn't look back. He let go of her and walked quickly back to the horse. He stepped on the pedals and jumped up with his long legs. He held the reins tightly and said, "Drive——"
The royal guards immediately followed, and the clatter of horse hooves echoed in the empty streets in the early morning.
When no one could be seen at all, Guan Chun stepped forward and whispered: "Madam, go back, it's still early."
Shen Lansui nodded and looked away.
After returning to the bedroom, she went back to bed and wanted to take a nap. She struggled for a long time before closing her eyes, but she still couldn't sleep well. She was woken up by her stomach at noon.
During the meal, Shan Xia came in with a strange expression and placed a coquettish invitation with gold foil and pink background on the table.
Shen Lansui could even faintly smell the faint fragrance coming from above.
She was stunned, "Who sent it?"
Shang Xia whispered: "East Palace."
"East Palace?" Shen Lansui blinked and responded, then suddenly remembered something. She put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hand, picked up the invitation, opened it, and frowned, "It's true."
"Is... is the fourth lady coming to visit?" Guan Chun asked in a low voice.
Shen Lansui nodded, put down the invitation and continued to drink his porridge, "I will be here in eight days. The Crown Princess will invite me to watch the ceremony."
"He's just a talented person, what kind of ceremony are you watching?" Guan Chun curled his lips with some disdain.
Shang Xia patted her and said, "You can't say that. Even if he is just a talented person, he is still a member of the royal family. It is not something that you or I can judge. Besides, it is true that he is a talented person now. But if the prince succeeds to the throne in the future, what will happen? If you can make a concubine or concubine, then you are a serious master."
Guan Chun stopped talking and closed his mouth.
Shen Lansui nodded, "Shang Xia is right. After all, he is a member of the royal family, no matter how big or small he is."
Shang Xia asked: "Madam, are you going?"
"It's hard to refuse the invitation sent by someone from the Crown Princess. Not going will first show that we don't respect the Crown Princess, and secondly, it will show that we don't value our sisters. No matter what Shen Si and I do in private, we still have to work hard on the surface. .”
"Then the servant asked Xianyun to prepare the gift list?" Shang Xia asked thoughtfully, "Does Madam have any plans?"
Shen Lansui paused, held the bowl, thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't have to be too expensive, and it doesn't have to be too little. Just pick something that looks good."
"My slave understands."
Shang Xia smiled knowingly and turned to look for Shen Xianyun.
Lu Xingyue was not at home, and Shen Lansui always felt empty in her heart. She used to think that a bigger mansion would be better, but now she felt that it was too big and too empty. She was a little lonely alone.
Unable to rest, she simply put on a thick coat, took a hand warmer, and took a carriage to the Aphrodisiac Hall to treat people.
