There are still some charlatans swindling near the city gate, but they are often exposed by smart people and have to flee.
Yin Luzhu was among them, watching the bustling crowds shuttle through the narrow streets. The vendors shouted to solicit business, and the sound of horse hooves and footsteps intertwined to create a noisy and enthusiastic atmosphere.
She suddenly sighed: "I don't know when Liangzhou, across from this city, will become like this Daliang City."
Hearing this, the expression on Gu Tingfang's face froze slightly, and he said: "I thought you only wanted the prosperous Daliang City, not Liangzhou."
"Your Majesty, I cannot bear to see the people in dire straits."
Gu Tingfang looked at her and saw that the expression on her face was very vivid, and her smile was still the same as before.
Just when Gu Tingfang was looking at Yin Luzhu, she suddenly walked towards a vendor and dragged Gu Tingfang away.
Yin Luzhu picked up a hosta from the stall and looked at it carefully. The quality was not good, but the appearance was somewhat unique.
"Boss, how much does this cost?"
"Ten coppers."
Yin Luzhu paid the money and inserted the hosta into Gu Tingfang's hair with his backhand, "Your Majesty, I'll give you a gift."
A flash of surprise flashed in Gu Tingfang's eyes.
"Sent an orphan?"
Yin Luzhu nodded.
Gu Tingfang raised her hand and gently brushed the hosta in her hair, feeling a warmth suddenly surge in her heart.
Over the years, he has rewarded many people, and many people have given him treasures, but no one has given him gifts like this.
This hosta was the first gift he received, but it came from Yin Luzhu.
He took a deep look at Yin Luzhu and pretended to cough lightly, "Actually, apart from being sarcastic, despicable, ruthless, rebellious, and greedy for merit, you still have merit."
Hearing this, Yin Luzhu smiled reluctantly.
"Then I dare to ask your Majesty, apart from these, do you have any merits?"
Gu Tingfang frowned, as if he was thinking about something serious.
Along the way, he suddenly fell silent and followed Yin Luzhu silently, watching the bustle of Daliang City.
Suddenly, he said: "That's really gone."
Yin Luzhu was stunned for a moment, and then she realized the content of his words. She tugged at her lips and said, "Your words really warmed my whole day, Lord."
Meeting her gaze, Gu Tingfang laughed softly, "Yin Luzhu, actually, you have never been an ambitious person."
His words made the smile on Yin Luzhu's face disappear at this moment.
She slowly looked at Gu Tingfang, looking into the man's narrow phoenix eyes, she smiled lowly, and there was no warmth in her smile.
"Why do you say this?"
"Yin Luzhu, you just want to prove that women can be on par with men, or even better than men, right?"
"Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, mist and rain, are like a painting, slowly unfolding in the depths of the years. In the painting, there are light and dark, people and figures are mixed, and the world is messy, and you can't control it..."
"Your Majesty, I may want more than just this."
Yin Luzhu's words reached Gu Tingfang's eardrums, making him think of something.
"Yin Luzhu, King Chu Xiang was not killed alone!"
Listening to his inexplicable words, Yin Luzhu just looked at him deeply and said, "Your Majesty, let's go back."
With an inaudible sigh, Gu Tingfang stopped worrying and just nodded.
