After hearing Lu Zhong's words, Mrs. Lu felt a little chilly, and she realized that the matter seemed much more serious than she thought.
I was about to step forward and explain a few words, when suddenly a family member came to report, "Go back to your lord, His Royal Highness Chu has arrived."
Everyone in the room was taken aback, Lu Zhong hurriedly stood up, "His Royal Highness Chu? Where is it?"
"It's right..." Jia Ding was about to say that he was outside the door, and when he turned his head, he saw that the Ninth Prince had already walked in.
At the same time, everyone in the room saw the young man walking in under the sun, tall and straight, like a jade like a bamboo, with his black hair buckled in a jade crown, shining with a soft light, and he was wearing a moon-white brocade robe. , The horns turned and flew like waves on the sea, really like the posture of banished immortals.
Kneeling Su'er looked back, her heartbeat almost stopped, her eyes were red unknowingly, let alone the excitement and surprise in her heart, she thought that the nine princes came for her.
In fact, it did come for her business.
Lu Zhong returned to his senses, hurriedly helped his hat, and quickly greeted him. When passing by Mrs. Lu, he whispered: "I can't go back! I will ask you to settle the account later!"
Madam Lu bit her lip, and she was also relieved. Fortunately, he didn't say anything to demean himself as a concubine.
She was about to leave when she suddenly felt that someone had pulled her sleeve. She looked back and found that it was her daughter Lu Yingxue.
Lu Yingxue whispered: "Mother, King Chu has come down. This is an opportunity."
Madam Lu was startled, "What opportunity?"
Lu Yingxue said: "You forgot, His Majesty Chu's mother and you are sisters. He should call your aunt, if you can be more affectionate with His Royal Highness, then His Royal Highness Chu will have a good talk. Isn't the matter over? My father won't say anything more."
Mrs. Lu suddenly realized that she touched her forehead and said, "Yes, yes. You are right. Oh, I'm so angry that I've forgotten about it. It's still your brain that turns fast, go, and you cook with your own hands. Here comes the tea."
"Yes." Lu Yingxue said with a smile.
She turned around and walked out from the corner gate, while Lu Qingyue lowered her eyes and stepped out from the front gate. Although she wanted to know the outcome of this incident, she also wanted to know the purpose of King Chu.
, But, now is not where she should be, she still knows the rules, so she would rather not know these, or lose the rules at this time and make her father upset.
Lu Zhong and the Ninth Prince had just arrived, and she bowed her head and said, "I have seen the prince."
The Ninth Prince nodded, without speaking, Lu Qingyue said to Lu Zhong: "Father, if there is no other order, the daughter will leave first."
Lu Zhong said: "Okay, go back and rest first, and then call you if you have anything to do."
Lu Qingyue stepped back, Lu Zhong led the Nine Princes into the front hall, and smiled as he walked and said: "His Royal Highness, I really didn't expect you to come. It really made the official residence of the lower official shining."
After he said it, he turned his head and saw that Madam Lu had not retreated as he had just said, but had sat down instead, and his anger in his heart was even more startled.
But because the Ninth Prince was here, he wouldn't have a good attack, so he just gave her a harsh look.
Madam Lu didn't seem to have seen it. Seeing the Nine Princes had arrived, she hurriedly stood up and said, "His Royal Highness, it's been a long time since I saw it. How has it been these days?"
Her words were obviously close, Lu Zhong looked at her in astonishment, almost wondering if her mind was flooded.
At this moment, Lu Yingxue also walked in, holding a teacup in her hand, walked to the Ninth Prince, handed her hands forward and said, "Cousin, please have tea. I made this myself."
Lu Zhong was dumbfounded, even the eyes of the Nine Princes shrank slightly. His heart was originally because Qin Youran said that Lu Zhong was his person, and because of what his wife, the Zou family, and his mother concubine were. Sisters are not happy, this is all eight hundred miles away, I don't know which sister it is for a long time.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived here today, this Zou family's greetings were nonsense and unruly, but now it is better. This Lu Yingxue does not even call the prince or his highness, and directly calls "cousin".
He curled his lips slightly, pulling out a cold arc, and said to Lu Zhong from his side, "Master Lu, the way to greet you in your house is very strange."
As soon as Lu Zhong heard this, he knew that he was unhappy. In fact, this is also nonsense. No one will be happy about this matter.
This in his heart
Scolding, I really don't understand that Zou is not such a stupid person at ordinary times, how come his brain is like rust and paste.
"His Royal Highness, this... This is..." He didn't make it clear for a long time, and was sweating profusely. Madam Lu said to the side: "Master, you forgot, the concubine and the concubine's mother and concubine are cousins. , The concubine is still his aunt, and Xue Er is also his cousin, this cousin is just right."
"Shut up, you!" Lu Zhong was so angry that his veins burst out, and he was still trying his best to round it up, but it's all right now, but it won't make it round.
Madam Lu was startled, Lu Yuxue's hand holding the cup shook, and the lid of the teacup jumped, making a harsh sound.
The Ninth Prince turned his gaze and saw Su'er who was kneeling on the side. She was looking up at him blankly. Seeing this woman, the anger in his heart couldn't be suppressed.
He didn't pick up the cup of tea or screamed. He looked at Su'er, but he asked Mrs. Lu, "Mrs. Lu, I heard that this maid is yours?"
Lu Zhong's heart "cocked". He didn't expect that the Ninth Prince was also here for this matter, but he still had some doubts in his heart. Qin's affairs were related to the third prince. Why was it related to the Ninth Prince again
After hearing the question of the Ninth Prince, Mrs. Lu thought that this matter had changed again, and hurriedly said: "Exactly. It was bought by the concubine herself."
Lu Zhong originally wanted to remind her to be careful, but she didn't expect her mouth to be so fast. Before she could hint at her, she had already said it.
After listening to her, the nine princes did not say anything immediately, but kept staring at Su'er. Su'er's face was slightly red at first, with a little excitement, but after a long time, she got from the eyes of the nine princes. She couldn't see the enthusiasm, but saw the coldness, she couldn't help but tremble slightly, and some bad premonitions slowly filled up.
For a long time, the nine princes leaned slightly, the cold light from the starting point in the dark eyes, like the refracted light on the ice, "You tell this king, was it a mistake to save you in the first place? Miss Qin saved you, yes. Didn't it save a wolf?"
As soon as the words came out, everyone present was taken aback.
Lu Zhong's breathing was stagnant, and Madam Lu swallowed her saliva. Suddenly she felt that she had done something wrong.
