Views:

Mu Nanzhi looks very much like her mother. Needless to say, she is young and beautiful. Her eyebrows are not as gloomy as Lu Minglan's, but more of a girl's bright and charming one, which makes people want to see more. After a few glances, at this moment, those eyebrows and eyes were staring at Lu Zhishan.

Mu Nanzhi did not live under Lu Minglan's knees for a long time. When she was young, Lu Minglan rarely talked to her about the Dali royal family, but every time she mentioned it, she would definitely talk about Dali's eldest prince Lu Zhi. Shan, at that time, she was only four or five years old and could not remember things clearly, but she remembered that Lu Minglan always told her that Dali must obey Lu Zhishan in everything, and she should also talk to Lu Zhishan when something happened. After discussion, she must respect and be close to her eldest cousin. Others may have evil intentions towards her, but only this eldest cousin will definitely not harm her.

It's just that she hasn't seen Lu Zhishan since she came to Dali, but she grew up listening to Lu Zhishan's legendary deeds. In the quiet palace, where women gather, all they can talk about is the makeup of the concubines and the prince. She knew all the concubines and princes in the palace, but she had never seen the eldest prince who was fighting on the battlefield, but she knew everything about Lu Zhishan's glorious achievements.

She knew that this eldest cousin used to be the most beloved by the Lord Long Live. At a young age, he joined the army, served as a soldier, guarded the frontiers, never spoke of suffering, and the noble prince fought bloody battles on the battlefield. These are not simple words of bravery. What can be summarized is that although I heard that Long Live Lord was becoming more and more dissatisfied with the eldest prince's willful behavior, and the ministers in the court also complained a lot about him, in Mu Nanzhi's eyes, this was a truly heroic man.

Although this hero is now dead, it does not affect Mu Nanzhi's admiration and respect for him at all.

"Prince, don't be too discouraged," Mu Nanzhi stroked the tea bowl and spoke carefully, "When Long Live Master learned that you were seriously injured, he was very angry and ordered you to be taken back to Beijing for treatment overnight. It can be seen that Lord Long Live still feels sorry for you, but now that the army in the south has been defeated and the government and the public are uneasy, Lord Long Live will inevitably get angry with you. After waiting for a while, Lord Long Live will definitely restore you to the position of prince."

Lu Zhishan didn't expect to hear such adult-like comfort from this little girl. He couldn't help but smile: "Just say this in front of me. Never say it to others."

Mu Nanzhi nodded and hummed.

"After drinking this cup of tea, you can go back. It's getting dark. When you leave, remember to pick up a lantern at the door." Lu Zhishan smiled and gave the eviction order, "You just came here to deliver medicine to me today." That’s it, don’t come here again.”

Mu Nanzhi lowered his head and gripped the tea bowl hard, his joints turning slightly white. After a while, he nodded and said, "Yes, I understand."

Mu Nanzhi didn't even drink a sip of the cup of tea. Under Lu Zhishan's kind smile, she hurriedly put on the big cloak and left Ningjun Prince's Mansion in a hurry.

Long Live Lord had just issued an imperial edict to rebuke Lu Zhishan, and she came to visit Lu Zhishan in a hurry. This was really inappropriate. As a princess from a small country, her status in the capital was awkward, and she had been cautious in everything she did since she was a child. Shen, she had also been thinking about the whole day at home. When it got dark, she sneaked into Ningjun Prince's Mansion wearing a big cloak. She didn't even bring a maid or servant with her. Fortunately, Ningjun Prince's Mansion was far away from Duan Huihe. Princess Shuo's Mansion was only two streets away. She walked in a hurry when she came, for fear of being seen, but when she went back, her feet felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.
