In mid-December, Mrs. Fu's birthday banquet invited celebrities from all over the capital for the first time.
The carriage stopped more than twenty feet away from the door of Fu's house, and Wen Qingzhu helped Xingyue's hand down.
Looking up, I saw the long motorcade moving slowly.
In front of the steps at the door, several children of the Fu family stood to greet the arriving guests.
"Let's just walk there. It's not very far anyway."
Xingyue was a little hesitant: "Miss, won't you wait for Your Highness?"
"No need!" It was Lu Tao who spoke, holding Wen Qingzhu's other side, "There are too many people coming to Fu's house today, and there are many people with mixed eyes. It would be bad if others misunderstood!"
Wen Qingzhu didn't give them a chance to argue and set off directly, and the two maids had no choice but to follow.
When he arrived at the door, Fu Yu saw her at a glance, walked down two steps to greet her, and said, "Miss Wen Qi is here, please come inside."
Wen Qingzhu walked up, and soon the people on the left and right deliberately moved out of the way.
Fu Yu led her inside: "Follow me."
"Thank you for your hard work, Master Fu." Wen Qingzhu smiled, understanding that he was deliberately waiting for her.
As we walked further in, there were fewer and fewer people around.
If Wen Qingzhu hadn't been familiar with Fu Yu's personality, he wouldn't have dared to follow him.
Arriving at the entrance of an elegant garden, Wen Qingzhu saw a man and a woman, arguing about something.
But almost all of them were talking about the woman in yellow.
As they walked in, they turned their heads and looked over.
Wen Qingzhu stepped forward with a smile on his face: "Mr. Lu, Miss Zuo."
"Qingzhu?" Zuo Bingning frowned. The person in front of her gave her a completely unfamiliar feeling.
"Miss Zuo." Wen Qingzhu felt that he liked Zuo Binning very much, but when he thought that the emperor wanted to marry her to Jiang Yuancheng, he couldn't like her at all.
"You are hostile to me!" Zuo Binning became more and more confused, and she had already concluded that the Wen Qingzhu in front of her was fake.
She even whispered to Lu Ce in front of Wen Qingzhu, "Is she a fake Wen Qingzhu?"
"Miss Wen, I haven't seen you for a long time. I came to you today because I really have something important to discuss." Lu Ce noticed something strange about Wen Qingzhu, but he knew that the person in front of him was indeed Wen Qingzhu.
He turned to Zuo Bingning and said, "You and Master Fu go find Lu Lei first."
"I'm not going! What if I meet that insidious and cunning King of Chu?!" Zuo Bingning slowly became disgusted as soon as she opened her mouth.
Wen Qingzhu's eyes changed slightly, and the smile on Lu Ce's lips deepened.
This thing has become so interesting...
Lu Ce said it again, and Zuo Binning had no choice but to follow Fu Yu and leave here.
But when leaving, he turned back three times and looked at Lu Ce reluctantly, still whispering something.
After they left, Wen Qingzhu glanced sideways at Xingyue and Lu Tao: "You should also step back."
"Miss!" Xingyue was a little worried. His Highness had specifically asked Lu Ce and Wen Qingzhu not to meet alone unless it was absolutely necessary.
"What are you waiting for! You won't listen to Miss!" Lu Tao rolled his eyes and dragged Xingyue away.
When no one was around, Wen Qingzhu and Lu Ce walked side by side.
"Mr. Lu, I don't remember many things, but for some reason I feel that the young master and I hit it off right away. Maybe the young master can answer some questions for me."
Lu Ce curled his lips and said, "I'll do my best."
"Before I lost my memory, did I tell you something?" Wen
"There is indeed something very important, but given your current situation, I don't think I can tell you."
Wen Qingzhu frowned, was Lu Ce planning to tell him
"But I can tell you another thing." Lu Ce stopped and took out an old purse from his sleeve with a simple lotus embroidered on it.
After opening it, there was a jade lotus inside.
"Is this the jade lotus from Fengguo Temple?" Wen Qingzhu could tell at a glance that this purse was definitely not for the jade lotus.
Lu Ce handed the item to Wen Qingzhu's hand: "The item returns to its original owner. Since you have lost your memory, I think we need to renegotiate our cooperation."
"explain."
"Bing Ning doesn't want to marry King Chu, but you said you can do it. As for what I promised you, it is to marry you." Lu Ce's eyes suddenly became deep.
"With you?" Wen Qingzhu carefully recalled all the information and felt that he would never do this under any circumstances.
unless-
"Your Majesty, he..." Wen Qingzhu's breathing suddenly stagnated, which was incredible.
Lu Ce laughed: "This is just a guess of yours. This matter also involves King Rui and the Marquis of Ping. What are you going to do now?"
"Do you like Zuo Bingning?" Wen Qingzhu felt his mind was in a mess, and suddenly thought of a possibility, and raised his head to look at him.
Lu Ce turned around and continued walking forward: "Miss Wen, there is no need to pry, but I can give you a hint. If you are free, you can go find Zhang Ke."
"Remember, avoid King Chu."
Wen Qingzhu looked at his back getting further and further away, feeling ups and downs in his heart.
As expected, there is another story behind his own amnesia.
As soon as he walked out of the garden, Wen Qingzhu saw Jiang Yuancheng coming.
"Zhu'er, are you okay?" Jiang Yuancheng looked at her with a worried look.
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "It's okay. I just met Lu Ce and learned some things."
"What's the matter?" Jiang Yuancheng found that she was in a very low mood and felt a little uneasy.
Wen Qingzhu suddenly raised his head: "Yuancheng, Zuo Binning doesn't want to marry you either. You knew that early on, right?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yuancheng breathed a sigh of relief: "I know, but if the father wants to grant a marriage, none of us can stop it, so we have to plan slowly."
"Yeah." Wen Qingzhu intuitively felt that Jiang Yuancheng was lying to her.
However, she did not expose it, but went to Mrs. Fu's yard with him.
There were a lot of people here, but Jiang Yuancheng had a high status, so a steward took them directly to the house.
There were many people sitting in the room, and all eyes were focused on them.
"I've met the Madam."
Mrs. Fu's wife narrowed her eyes, looked at Wen Qingzhu and Jiang Yuancheng, raised her hand and said, "You're welcome."
After saying hello, Wen Qingzhu had something on his mind and sat down for a while.
Jiang Yuancheng asked softly: "What's wrong?"
Wen Qingzhu glanced at everyone in the room: "It's okay, I just don't like it here."
As soon as the words fell, the room where they were chatting and laughing suddenly fell into silence.
Mrs. Fu laughed and said, "This girl is shy. Someone, please take her to the side yard next door to rest."
"Thank you, Madam." Wen Qingzhu thanked her and followed the maid who led the way.
In the side yard, Wen Qingzhu kept thinking about Lu Ce's words.
Going to see Zhang Ke
Why Zhang Ke
Just when she couldn't think clearly, Lu Tao walked in from the door angrily.
"Miss! They went too far! They actually said that you are disrespectful and arrogant!"
Wen Qingzhu raised his head and found that Xingyue was not there: "What's going on? Isn't Xingyue outside?"
"She has something to do with King Chu, and she said she would come back later." Lu Tao rolled his eyes and said with a smile.
She came over and took Wen Qingzhu's hand and said, "Miss! Let's go out for a walk. We're bored to death sitting in the room."
"Okay." Wen Qingzhu didn't know why Lu Tao must have deliberately pushed Xingyue away.
After leaving Madam Tai's yard, Wen Qingzhu discovered that Lu Tao had deliberately taken her to the southwest.
This time she didn't speak, just pretending not to know.
When we arrived in front of a red plum forest, we suddenly heard the sound of a piano.
After listening carefully, Wen Qingzhu seemed to have a string vibrating in his head, and his head hurt.
"Miss! What's wrong with you?" Lu Tao hurriedly supported her and found that Wen Qingzhu's head began to sweat.
At this moment, a calm and cold voice appeared in front of him: "Ms. Wen, are you feeling unwell?"
Wen Qingzhu suddenly raised his head and looked with a sharp look in his eyes: "Marquis Ping Guo?"
"If Miss Wen doesn't mind, I can help you take a look." Fu Lie stretched out his hand.
She lowered her head and looked at Fu Lie's palm. There was a thick layer of calluses on it, accumulated from years of martial arts practice.
You can still vaguely see scars of different shades, which are traces that can only be left on the battlefield.
After hesitating for a moment, Wen Qingzhu stretched out his hand and placed it on Fu Lie's palm.
The joy on Lu Tao's face was beyond words. He immediately let go of Wen Qingzhu and quietly stepped aside.
After Fu Lie held Wen Qingzhu's hand, he still sent her inner energy.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Wen Qingzhu's whole body began to feel warm, and his headache began to ease.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis." Wen Qingzhu tried to pull away his hand, but Fu Lie didn't let go, "Master Fu?"
Only then did Fu Lie come to his senses, and after letting go, he cupped his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I was reckless."
"It's okay. I would like to thank Mr. Hou for your help. I don't know why, but I always feel like I owe Mr. Hou and I want to repay you."
Wen Qingzhu said these words from the bottom of his heart and sincerely.
"Qingqing..." Fu Lie felt a dull pain in his heart. How could this happen? !
Wen Qingzhu felt that this title was familiar, but it was too intimate: "Did I have a good relationship with Mr. Hou in the past?"
"Of course!" Seeing that something was wrong in the atmosphere, Lu Tao hurriedly came forward and held Wen Qingzhu's hand, "It's all because of Miss Fu that Mr. Fu is here today!"
"And when we were at Fengguo Temple, it was Miss Fu who saved Mr. Fu! At that time, Mr. Fu was just an ordinary soldier."
Several broken scenes suddenly flashed before Wen Qingzhu's eyes, as if they were under the locust tree at Fengguo Temple!
His head hurt again, and Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but hold his temples.
"Let me help you." Fu Lie held Wen Qingzhu's hand again and began to transmit internal energy to her to relieve her pain.
But this time, less than a while later, Jiang Yijia's voice came from behind, saying that she was not too worried about the excitement.
"Hey! Isn't this Miss Wen Qi, Marquis of Pingguo?"
Wen Qingzhu immediately pushed away Fu Lie's hand and closed his eyes. Jiang Yijia was a big trouble!
Soon, Jiang Yijia came to their side and looked at them with interest.
"What's wrong with Princess Yijia?" Wen Qingzhu wanted to leave.
Jiang Yijia stepped sideways and blocked her way: "Miss Wen, do you know that Brother Five Emperors is like this? He is holding you in his hands and is afraid of melting!"
"I have been friends with Mr. Fu, and Yuancheng knows it." Wen Qingzhu didn't know what Jiang Yijia wanted to do.
Jiang Yijia raised her eyes and looked at Fu Lie and said, "Master Hou, I have something to say to Miss Wen. Please step aside."
"Then I'll take my leave." Fu Lie turned around and left without any hesitation.
Looking at his back, Wen Qingzhu found that his heart actually hurt a little.
"Wen Qingzhu, the King of Chu may not care about what happened just now, but Concubine Wan definitely does! She has always been suspicious of you. I believe you are a smart person and know this."
Wen Qingzhu looked away and asked seriously: "What does the princess want to do?"
Jiang Yijia came close to her ear and whispered: "I know your skills in medicine and poisoning, and I have something to ask you..."
"You!" Wen Qingzhu took two steps back and looked at Jiang Yijia in shock, "You actually-"
Jiang Yijia's smile suddenly turned ferocious: "Not only do I know about this, but I also know that you took the same medicine as me and that's why you lost your memory! Don't you want to get the antidote?"
