Lu Zheng paused slightly, and he could hear the urgency in the eldest princess's voice. Lu Zheng suddenly remembered the last time she came here.

The eldest princess seemed to pay extraordinary attention to A Zhi.

Mrs. Han's voice came from inside, "Mom, A Zhi didn't come today. Miss Lu said that his father came to the capital."

Then there was a silence.

Lu Zheng walked into the room, took the medicine box from Huasui's hand, and looked at the eldest princess, seemingly not seeing the disappointment that had not faded from her face.

She smiled and said, "I didn't expect that A Zhi could have healing effects at such a young age. The eldest princess's complexion has improved a lot."

The eldest princess lay down with a smile on her face, "We haven't seen a child in our house for a long time. When we get old, we just think about our children and grandchildren..."

Lu Zheng smiled and didn't answer any more. He took out the silver needle and looked at Mrs. Han. Mrs. Han hurriedly said, "Let's wait outside."

She motioned Han Chun to follow her out. As soon as she went out, she ran into Han Ling. Han Ling opened his mouth and asked, "Is he in there? I'll go in and take a look..."

Mrs. Han quickly stopped her eyes and said covertly: "Yes, Miss Lu is inside, treating her mother. Let's wait outside..."

After saying that, he smiled at Huasui who was waiting outside, grabbed Han Ling's wrist and winked at him, Han Ling understood instantly.

"Then let's not disturb Miss Lu here..."

When Lu Zheng heard the words coming from outside, she smiled in her heart, but when she thought of Wang Zhi, she couldn't laugh anymore. Did she know that Wang Zhi was not born to Mrs. Wang, nor was he Wang Zheng's son?
Whose child is he then?
The eldest princess's mansion is so secretive. Is there any hidden secret?
Although A Zhi was her patient, Lu Zheng never regarded him as an ordinary patient. For so many days, A Zhi ate and slept with her, and even Lian Xin probably regarded him as a family member in her heart.

It seems that I want to have a chat with Wang Zheng when I go back.

Lu Zheng has always known that the water in the capital is deep, but she has the ability to leave at any time. If A Zhi is really related to someone in the capital, it is not a good thing for him if no one dares to announce it.

Lu Zheng added more spices while thinking about it, and smoke rose. Within a moment, the eldest princess fell asleep.

After acupuncture, Lu Zheng took the needle and took her pulse again. She was surprised to find that the princess's pulse was a little stronger than before.

She waited for the spices to burn out and put away the incense burner before leaving the room.

In the side hall, Han Ling saw her coming out and asked, "How is my mother today?"

Lu Zheng stepped forward and rewrote the prescription, "It's okay. The eldest princess needs to sleep for a while. Don't open the window yet. When she wakes up, she can lie down in the yard for a while. It's not good to stay in the room every day."

Han Ling hurriedly agreed. After Lu Zheng wrote the prescription, he took out two sticks of Lingshu grass from the medicine box and handed them over, "Chew it or boil it in water and give it to the eldest princess."

Mrs. Han hurriedly stepped forward to take it and thanked her. Mrs. Han allowed her to eat in the house, but Lu Zheng declined. Then, Lu Zheng took two boxes of pastries and left, and Han Chun went to see her off.

After Lu Zheng left, Han Ling showed disappointment and said to Mrs. Han: "I specifically asked for leave today to wait for him to come. I didn't take a closer look at him last time..."

Mrs. Han had vaguely guessed Wang Zhi's identity since the last time the eldest princess asked Han Chun to ask Lu Zheng privately about Wang Zhi. When had her mother-in-law ever been interested in an unrelated person?
Although the eldest princess did not tell them about this, how could they not guess that the eldest princess was so obsessed with the past after living under the same roof for so many years?
When Mrs. Han saw that the servant had gone out, she whispered: "Miss Lu said that his father has come to the capital. Mother is too concerned about this matter. Please send someone to inquire about it."

Lingyang Palace is not easy to inquire about, but Han Ling still agreed, "Okay."

Xiao Qi was still waiting outside the mansion. Lu Zheng got on the carriage. After chatting for a few words, he asked Xiao Fuzi casually, "I think this eldest princess's mansion is very grand. It's bigger than your prince's mansion. It's just that It’s been a while.”

Xiao Fuzi immediately said: "Isn't that right? This... is the eldest daughter of Queen Xiao Zhaowen. She was more noble than other princes back then."

Xiao Fuzi glanced at Xiao Qi and said, "It's just that the most noble master is always in the palace." Once the people on the throne changed, the identities of many people changed.

Lu Zheng nodded, "Her yard is very quiet and lonely. There are not many brothers and sisters coming to visit her."

Xiao Fuzi sighed faintly, "I heard that the eldest princess had a deep love for her younger brother King Jingnan, and they were as close as siblings from ordinary people's families. However, many things happened later, and King Jingnan died for the country, leaving behind In the southern border..."

"Does that prince have no children?"

"Yes, why not? The prince is very smart. He has been familiar with military books since he was a child. He went to the battlefield with his father when he was a teenager. However, I later heard that he died in the same battle as King Jingnan."

"After the Jingnan Prince's Palace disappeared, the eldest princess became seriously ill from that year onwards."

Lu Zheng asked him, "What year did this happen?"

Xiao Fuzi thought for a while and replied: "It's not a few years, it seems to be four years ago."

Four years ago, Ah Zhi is now four years old. Is it a coincidence?
When the carriage passed by Shenwu Street, Lu Zheng stared at Jiang Yuelou for a while. Xiao Qi saw this and kicked Xiao Fuzi who was distracted. Xiao Fuzi followed Lu Zheng's eyes and understood immediately.

"That's Jiang Yue Lou, the largest restaurant in the capital. Why don't we have lunch here today?"

Lu Zheng turned to look at him, with a smile on her lips, "You have a good idea."

Since Xiao Qi was not a regular customer of Jiang Yue Lou, Jiang Yue Lou's clerk didn't know him, but Xiao Qi and Lu Zheng's clothing clerk didn't dare to treat him lightly.

"A few distinguished guests, please come inside." The waiter greeted warmly.

Xiao Fuzi asked him, "Is there a private room upstairs?"

Most people who come to Jiangyue Tower must book private rooms in advance if they are not frequent guests. There are many guests in Jiangyue Tower today. Although there are still two rooms upstairs, the restaurant is always reserved for nobles who visit unexpectedly.

The waiter didn't recognize them, so he had to say: "I'm so sorry, there are so many guests today, the private room upstairs is full."

Xiao Fuzi looked at the hall on the first floor, and then at Xiao Qi. Xiao Qi saw Lu Zheng following the waiter who was serving food, and raised his finger to the window.

The waiter immediately said: "This location is good, and you can also see the scenery of the river behind."

Lu Zheng didn't have any objections, it would be the same no matter where you eat it.

Xiao Fuzi knew the tastes of Xiao Qi and Lu Zheng, so he ordered what they liked. The table was full and the food was served very quickly.

Seeing so much, Lu Zheng motioned to Huasui and others to sit up and eat together. Xiao Fuzi quickly waved his hand and pointed to the empty seat next to him, "Girl and master, let's eat. We'll eat here later."

If they were in Lingyang, Xiao Fuzi might not be so disciplined. This is the capital, and they might run into people they know, and others would laugh at them because Lingyang Palace has no rules.

Lu Zheng had no choice but to hold out two plates of untouched dishes and handed them to Huasui, who hurriedly took them and put them on the table next door.

Xiao Qi's eyes indicated that Xiao Fuzi did not need to wait, and Xiao Fuzi happily sat at the table next door with Chang Ping Huasui and ordered a few more dishes.

Lu Zheng was eating comfortably when suddenly a laugh came from not far away, "Hey, this girl is really good at eating!"
