Lu Xiaoshu couldn't help feeling a little bit regretful and sorry. What he regretted was that maybe he shouldn't have been too casual in front of the third prince, so that he had thoughts that he shouldn't have. It's a pity that I can't respond to his feelings, and he is a very good person...
Lu Xiaoshu was thinking wildly here, the boat lady had already served the food and drink, and she complimented her with a smile in her crisp voice, arranged the food and drink, and stepped back tactfully.
Obviously, the boat lady regarded the two of them as a couple.
Lu Xiaoshu felt even more embarrassed, and slightly annoyed.
The third prince took all of her expressions into his eyes and felt even more disappointed.
Neither of them moved their chopsticks. They were still eating together at this time, and both of them felt embarrassed. What the third prince said earlier was just to keep Lu Xiaoshu a little longer.
When the two ordered the boatman to dock, the boat lady came in to clean up. She was stunned when she saw the untouched food and wine, and felt a little uneasy in her heart. She asked with a smile, "But these things can't be seen by the nobleman? Really? sorry… ."
Lu Xiaoshu interrupted her by raising his hand, and said with a faint smile: "The food and drink are all good, but we suddenly lost our appetite, don't worry, we will pay for the food and drink."
The boat lady felt relieved when she heard her say that, she couldn't help laughing and said: "I'll just say, my craftsmen have always praised me, how could it suddenly become so bad!"
Lu Xiaoshu and the third prince couldn't help laughing at the words.
After docking, the third prince got off the boat first. He originally turned around and wanted to reach out to help Lu Xiaoshu, how could Lu Xiaoshu need his help? He jumped ashore lightly and cleverly, and smiled at him.
The third prince felt disappointed for a while, seeing her sudden politeness and slight alienation, he knew that maybe they couldn't even be friends.
Am I that bad? The third prince's heart felt slightly sour.
"Xiaoshu, do you have someone you like?" The third prince looked at her and asked suddenly.
"No!" Lu Xiaoshu was taken aback and immediately denied it, and said with a smile, "Why are you asking this so seriously!"
Of course she couldn't tell him that she hadn't forgotten that the right to speak about her marriage was still in the hands of the empress. The third prince was an honest man, if the empress found out, she might be annoyed that she didn't know how to measure. Then it will be troublesome.
The third prince didn't doubt that there was him, and when he heard this, he felt secretly happy, and the depression that weighed heavily on his heart dissipated by two points.
As long as she doesn't have someone she likes, he thought, he still has a chance...
What he wanted in his life was really very little. He never thought that being an emperor would have his own share. He just wanted to find a woman he liked and live a simple and happy life.
But he didn't know that being born in the royal family, no matter whether he was favored or not, it was impossible to be simple after all. As for happiness and happiness, it was even harder to say!
"It's getting late, Third Highness should hurry back to the palace! I'm going back too!" Lu Xiaoshu was afraid that he would say something to send him back, so he rushed to be the first to laugh.
The third prince really had such a plan, but he could tell that Lu Xiaoshu didn't want to appreciate it, so he couldn't say anything more, and said goodbye to her with a smile.
Lu Xiaoshu didn't want to stay any longer, and he didn't wait for him to leave first, so he took a step ahead.
Rubbing her hungry stomach, Lu Xiaoshu ordered the carriage to find a restaurant to eat first, she didn't want to go back hungry and fill up with snacks. After the meal, there is nothing to eat.
But Lu Xiaoshu didn't know that she and the third prince got off the boat and fell into Zhou Guang's eyes. Zhou Guang was taken aback immediately, and even more aggrieved. What about swimming in the lake with other men behind your back? This is too outrageous! How sad it is for the Lord to know!
He really wanted to get closer to hear what Lu Xiaoshu and the third prince had to say, but before he thought of a good way to get closer, Lu Xiaoshu had already said goodbye to the third prince. This made Zhou Guang feel a lot.
He hurriedly followed behind Lu Xiaoshu, not long after seeing her enter the restaurant to order food, he guarded outside.
When Lu Xiaoshu was finished and returned to the mansion, he continued to follow, until he saw Lu Xiaoshu entered the Lu mansion, Zhou Guang gave up and hurried back to report to his master.
Zhou Shizhi couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable after hearing Zhou Guang's words. He wished he could ask Lu Xiaoshu immediately, but then thought of Lu Xiaoshu's temper, and held back.
Even if you want to ask, you can't ask today, let alone ask directly, you have to seize the opportunity and pretend to casually induce her to talk, otherwise, before he can ask, she will first ask him why he sent someone to follow her.
When he said it was a coincidence, not only would she not believe it, she would only be even angrier: she had never been one to believe in coincidences.
only-
With a slight movement in his heart, Zhou Shizhi's eyes suddenly flickered, and he asked Zhou Guang, "You said that Xiao Shu went to the restaurant to eat again after he separated from the third prince?"
"Yes," Zhou Guang nodded, and said, "Miss Lu seems to have a good appetite, and she ordered several dishes!" What's more, she ate at a leisurely pace, which made him wait at the door for a long time I yawned waiting.
"Hehe!" Zhou Shizhi laughed, and said again: "You said you saw them getting off the boat? But the boat that provides boat dishes?"
Zhou Guang nodded and said, "As long as there is a painting boat in that area, boat dishes will be provided."
Zhou Shizhi glared at him angrily, and scolded: "You're so stupid! If Xiaoshu really has something to do with the third prince, can she go to the restaurant for dinner after getting off the boat?"
Zhou Guang was stunned, "Oh" and slapped his head, and said with a smile: "You are still wise, and you can think of it as soon as you think about it. You are not like a slave with an elm head! Yes, if there is something, the two of you are swimming in the lake. What a beautiful thing to enjoy the scenery while enjoying good food and wine!"
"Why do these words sound so unpleasant!" Although what Zhou Guang said didn't happen, Zhou Shizhi also felt very unhappy, so he glared at him and said.
"That's what the servant said, isn't it all, it's nothing!" Zhou Guang smiled "hehe", trying to make amends.
Zhou Shizhi snorted, of course he wouldn't bother with him, he looked ahead and said quietly: "Not only is this nonsense, I'm afraid there is something else hidden in it!"
"Is there another secret?" Zhou Guang was stunned, and couldn't help searching back and forth in his mind, but he didn't think of any other secret.
Seeing that he looked like he was thinking hard, Zhou Shizhi smiled unfriendlyly, and scolded angrily: "Just don't think about it, I'll give you a headache for you!" Then he sent him off.
Zhou Guang smiled, and stopped thinking about it, and said with a smile: "What I said is that this slave's head really can't think of anything! Slave resigns, resigns!" If he can think of it, he can also be a master! Grandpa is so easy to be
Zhou Shizhi's eyes darkened. What happened between Xiaoshu and the third prince
He knew that Lu Xiaoshu was straightforward and informal, since she was willing to swim the lake with the third prince, it meant that they were friends.
Since they are friends, it is very common for them to have a meal together on the boat. How could she go to the restaurant for dinner after landing on the shore to say goodbye
Surely something happened to this...
what is it then? I had to see her and ask again!
Zhou Shizhi shook his head and laughed, because he couldn't figure out what would happen.
He never dreamed that the honest third prince would have feelings for Lu Xiaoshu, let alone that he dared to speak out when he had feelings.
Lu Xiaoshu's heart was also in a mess. Especially after parting with the third prince, this feeling is even worse.
She never thought that the third prince, who seemed so honest, would think about her. When he thought about marrying her, she felt like it was a dream!
Thinking of losing such a friend, Lu Xiaoshu couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
But that's okay, the third prince has been in the eyes of the emperor since the disaster relief, and he will definitely be reused. It is not a good thing to have a deep relationship with him!
She couldn't help thinking of Zhou Shizhi and their marriage. If it could be settled early, there wouldn't be so many things, but don't say it was settled early, even if it is said that it can't be said now. How can it not be depressing
Lu Xiaoshu had just returned to Linglong Pavilion listlessly, and was about to take a rest, but saw Du Juan came up with a smile and said: "Miss, the Lu residence invited the girl over, it is said that there is something very important! Just go!"
Lu Zhong and Miao Cuilan wanted to find her for something, and of course she would not delay for half an hour, and was immediately aroused by the three words "very important", she immediately changed her clothes and washed her face, and said with a smile: "My mother also That's all, my father is not one to exaggerate, he also said that there is an urgent matter, which is really important! I'd better hurry up, my mother will be in a hurry with me!"
Du Juan and Hong'e laughed when they said that, and quickly helped her change and freshen up, and tidied up in a short while. Lu Xiaoshu hastily talked to Mu Qing and took Du Juan with him.
When they arrived at the Lu residence, it was Lu Qi who came out to pick her up.
Lu Xiaoshu was taken aback, and stared at Lu Qi with wide eyes.
Lu Qi looked down at the clothes on his body, brushed them, looked again, and said with a smile, "Second sister, why are you staring at me like this? Don't you know me?"
"The sun is coming out from the west!" Lu Xiaoshu didn't answer him, but clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Brother, it's really rare to see you at home, nine and a half times out of ten times I've been here, I haven't seen you! I don’t know you anymore! Why are you so free today to investigate the case and hunt down the criminal?”
Lu Xiaoshu's heart moved, and he hurriedly said: "It's also your parents who called you back? So, this is really an important matter! Brother, what happened?"
"It's a good thing!" Lu Qi smiled, not caring about her teasing him at all, and went in with her while laughing: "Come on, you will know when your parents tell you when you enter the room!"
"After hearing what you said, brother, I really can't wait!" Lu Xiaoshu laughed.
The two siblings were chatting and laughing as they walked in, when Lu Xiaoshu heard Miao Cuilan laughing from afar, the corners of her mouth unconsciously twitched, and she ran in loudly, "Father! Mother!"
