Guizhen

Chapter 321 Smart
The two of you talked to each other until the sun rose.Lu Zhen felt it was time to go home and eat chicken legs.As a result, unconcealable exhaustion appeared between his brows.Seeing this, Princess Xue couldn't help feeling guilty.It was her negligence.Miss Lu Wu is so weak, she shouldn't bother her.Blame her for forgetting the time while talking.

Concubine Xue said with a smile: "You go back to the mansion first and rest, and I will order some dishes to be delivered to your mansion at noon."

Rewards don't mean rewards, but gifts.It can be seen that Princess Xue treated her very kindly.Lu Zhen frowned in her heart, and hurriedly got up to thank her.Princess Xue saw that she was unstable and staggering, and immediately ordered Gong'e to support her.It would be terrible if it fell.

Lu Zhen was about to stand firm, and Princess Xue ordered people to add more ginseng and deer antler.When it was time to go back, Lu Zhen was told to use more ginseng soup to replenish Qi and blood.

Lu Zhen agreed one by one, and walked out of the palace gate supported by Mu Xiang and Snail Essence.

The sun shone on Lu Zhen's pale face, and her lips became more colorless.Tianluojing couldn't help reminding in a low voice, "Miss, be careful where you step."

Lu Zhen's footsteps were sloppy, but her eyes were not idle.While leaning on Mu Xiang, she caught a glimpse of the little maid hiding in the corner of the corridor.

She is not served by the princess.The prince is weak, so there are only two concubines, Princess Xue and Concubine Ruan.There are no beauties, singers and dancers.Lu Zhen looked away and frowned slightly.If Gong'e, who is serving Song Chen, has something to do, she can report directly to Princess Xue.No need to be so sneaky.

Then... this little maid should serve Concubine Ruan.It seems that Princess Xue's dislike of Concubine Ruan is not unreasonable.Just looking at the demeanor of the palace servants around Concubine Ruan, there is a sense of pettiness.

Lu Zhen secretly shook her head in her heart.Coughing softly, he left the Eastern Palace.Walking and resting all the way, finally dawdling in the car, Lu Zhen fell headlong into the big lead pillow, and shouted for help, "It's too tiring to pretend to be dead!" The snail essence wiped the sweat from the forehead with her fingertips, it was also very tired .

Mu Xiang poked her head out to urge the coachman to go home quickly, twisted herself into the car, quickly opened the secret compartment, took out the saving box and put it in Lu Zhen's hand, "Eat a piece of candy and sweet your mouth."

Lu Zhen kept shaking her head, "Eating candy doesn't relieve fatigue."

Tian Luojing deeply agrees, "Yes, yes, yes. If you want to relieve fatigue, you have to roast chicken drumsticks."

Lu Zhen laughed haha.

It says wrong?The snail essence pursed her lips.A face blackened into the bottom of a pot.Roasted chicken legs are a relief!
After laughing enough, Lu Zhen cast her admiring eyes on the snail spirit, "Xiaotian looks more and more like a house fairy."

The darkened face of the snail essence turned bright in an instant, "Miss praise. The little one is still far away."

Lu Zhen pushed the box in front of the snail essence, "Choose what you like to eat."

The girl gave candy, and it had to eat if it didn't want to.This is called "The Fairy's Duty". There is a special volume in "Demon Training" that talks about this.

Tian Luojing thanked Lu Zhen, opened the box and picked up a piece of flower candy, and ate it well.

Lu Zhen turned to look at Mu Xiang, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the background of Concubine Ruan?"

She knew that the girl had to ask Concubine Ruan.That's why I recalled what she knew about Concubine Ruan back and forth.Mu Xiang straightened her waist, and said crisply: "The concubine Ruan is from the direct branch of the Ruan family in Longnan. She is the sixth. She was famous in Longnan. Originally, she preferred the Ruan family to be the crown princess. However, His Royal Highness loves Xue Princess Concubine." The voice suddenly dropped, "At that time, it was rumored that His Royal Highness picked lotus pods for Princess Xue at the lotus feast."

At that time?At least 20 years, right?The snail essence asked questions intentionally. 20 years ago, there was no big sister Mu Xiang.How did she know?
Out of the corner of Mu Xiang's eyes, she caught sight of the questioning snail essence, and couldn't help curling her lips, "This is what old Uncle Tian said. The old man talks about the anecdote of the capital like a treasure!"

The snail pursed her lips and sighed lightly.Uncle Old Tin is the best of the best house-elves.If it can have half the ability of old Tian Shu, it will be enough.

"Then... why did you accept Concubine Ruan later?" Lu Zhen asked.

Even if she doesn't understand the word love, she can still see the deep love between the prince and concubine Xue.The more this is the case, the less room there is for a third person.

"After the prince got married, Princess Xue's stomach didn't move for two years. Your majesty made the decision to accept Concubine Ruan for the prince." Mu Xiang took out another flower candy from the saving box and handed it to the snail essence, "but , Concubine Ruan also resorted to some tricks."

The snail essence looked down at the Huahua Tang in her palm, then raised her eyes to Mu Xiang, put the sugar in her purse and put it away.Listening to stories and eating melon seeds is exciting.Keep this piece of candy and eat it with tea when you go back.

Lu Zhen's eyebrows twitched, "What method? Let's hear it."

Mu Xiang cleared her throat and continued: "After enjoying the lotus feast, Concubine Ruan dragged on until the eighteenth or nineteenth and did not get married. Your Majesty intends to accept the concubine for the crown prince, and Ruan's talent name has risen again. If not, Your Majesty I won't think of someone like Ruan Shi again. After all, she was not young at that time. If it's a coincidence, I won't believe it."

The snail essence nodded like pounding garlic.What Sister Muxiang said makes sense.It doesn't believe it either.

Lu Zhen pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly, "The Ruan side concubine is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the Ruan family is not a scholarly family indifferent to fame and wealth."

"Longnan's Ruan family has been in the court for five generations. The direct branch and the side branch who are officials in the court may be thirty or forty. Although the official positions vary, they are also very impressive." Mu Xiang saw that Tian Luojing looked like he wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, so she explained to him softly, "But in the generation of Concubine Ruan's grandfather, she began to concentrate on learning." She poked Tian Luojing's arm with her elbow, "You put your heart into it." Remember, the girl will ask again in the future, and you can help remind me."

When Mu Xiang started, she remembered what Uncle Tian had told her about the Ruan family in Longnan.Lu Zhen curled her lips and said with a smile: "It's not voluntary to concentrate on learning, but a last resort. Concubine Ruan's grandfather disapproved of the late emperor's attack on Fuyu, so she was cast aside by the late emperor. An official surnamed Ruan was involved in a In a fraud case. It is said that the person is the younger brother of Concubine Ruan’s grandfather. Since then, the Ruan family has no longer been used by the late emperor. Gradually moved out of the capital and returned to Longnan to study behind closed doors.”

The snail spirit felt a pain in his head, but he still had to pretend that he had benefited a lot.

I am so tired.The snail essence had a sore nose and a bitter mouth.His eyes were bright, full of admiration for Lu Zhen's extensive knowledge.It is all done in accordance with "Demon Training".

As for whether it is doing well... Anyway, it has tried its best.

"I don't know why Concubine Ruan fell into His Majesty's eyes." Mu Xiang muttered, and continued: "But Your Majesty's vision is not very accurate. Concubine Ruan is not a good child. Until now, there is no male and half female. But , she is the life of Princess Wang Xue. Two months after the crown prince accepted her, Princess Xue has a happy pulse."

"It's annoying enough." Lu Zhen teased with a smile.

Lu Zhen was very interested, and Mu Xiang's mouth became more sharp because of this, "Who said it wasn't. Concubine Ruan might not have entered the palace with the intention of giving the crown prince a lot of money. No one expected that Princess Xue's belly would be uplifting instead. Not only did he become a man in one fell swoop, but the eldest grandson of the emperor was also smart and smart since he was a child, and he was deeply favored by His Majesty."
