The Survival Path of a Vicious Female Partner

He looked at the direction she was leaving, his eyes were deep and gloomy, and he said in his heart: Lu Manman, if I left, would you find that your cousin Li Zhao was different for a while?

Immediately, his eyes dimmed, she shouldn't notice it! All she is thinking about now is her cousin, and all she treats him well is on the basis of treating him as her cousin.

If he met her in his true face, she and him would be strangers.

The day before yesterday, Zhang Ruoshui Feige returned the book, and Li Zhao was already awake, and they were already on their way back in secret. All this, I am afraid it will end soon.

He was a little bit reluctant!

Lu Manman, you will usher in your normal life, and I will return to my own life.

From then on, the chance of meeting between us may be when you married your cousin Li Zhao.

In his heart, there was a coolness inexplicably.

He only stood in the courtyard for a while, and she came back, but there were a few more jujubes in her hand, she spread out her palm, "Cousin, jujube can nourish blood, you can eat more."

He looked at the green date in her palm, then reached out and took one, "Cousin..."

He paused. Actually, he preferred to call her Lu Manman than his cousin.

She responded, "Yeah."

"This is Leng Gong, how did you find the date?"

"I was already optimistic when I came. There was a jujube tree on the way we came just now."

He put the dates in his mouth. The dates were crispy and sweet. They were delicious. He said, "It's delicious."

She smiled, "Of course it's delicious. I already tasted it when I came. I thought about picking a few for Aunt Liang, but the jujube tree was too tall and strong. I could only stand underneath and pick a few. I climbed the tree to pick it, but I couldn’t put much on my body, so I came back and asked my cousin for help.”

She took him and walked outside the Suyun Temple. As she walked, she said: "Cousin, you will unfold your robe under the tree in a moment. I climbed the tree and picked the jujube. Throw it into your robe, so you won’t break the jujube."

He thought that she asked him to go there and asked him to help her pick the dates, but he didn't want him to pick the dates below, and she climbed the tree to pick them. He said, "Cousin, as you said, then The jujube tree is so tall, if you climb the tree, I won’t be relieved.”

"Why don't you worry about it, when I was young, I used to climb trees to pick other people's fruits. After I was discovered, I was chased by several ridges and sometimes even let dogs..."

When she said this, she stopped immediately, all to blame, and after being too familiar with a person, it was easy to be speechless. She is now a prostitute of the Lu family, a smiley lady, how could she climb a tree to pick others’ fruits when she was a child, and she was bitten by a dog?

She added angrily at the back: "Actually, it was made up by me just now. I have lived in a fixed environment since I was a child, and all I have to learn are set contents. I hope to have some time with me. I want to experience something that is not the same before."

He said: "If you like it, then do it!"

She secretly rejoiced in her heart, so good, he didn't doubt her.

Under the big jujube tree, Lu Manman rolled up her sleeves. Originally, her tree climbing skills were very good, but due to the physical limitations of the original owner, Lu Manman, her climbing speed was very slow. Fortunately, she was also climbing up like a snail, and when she had climbed the section where there were no branches, she climbed up the branches more easily.

After she stood firmly on the branch, she picked the largest and freshest jujube, and threw them one by one on his clothes with great precision. While picking the jujube, she said: " Cousin, you said that people in the cold palace are very limited in eating and drinking. Why do they choose to be hungry instead of picking such good dates?"

Because I couldn't let go, I couldn't let go of the identity of the former empress, and still dreamed that the Holy Admiral would take them back.

He said: "They are all former women. Where can they climb trees and pick fruits? Only you, Miss Lu, can do this for all the ladies in this city."

She didn't think he was teasing her, she just said: "I think climbing a tree is just a small thing. If the ladies in the capital are willing to lift up their skirts, roll up their sleeves, and exercise a little, they can climb the tree."

"The cousin thinks, what is the big deal?"

"Falling from a tree is a big deal."

They were chatting vigorously, but they heard the voices of several people talking from not far away. Lu Manman didn't feel unfamiliar with that voice. He only heard an immature female voice saying: "Sister Caihe, I know that there is something in this cold palace. A big jujube tree, this time is the season when the jujube is ripe, we pick the jujube back and give it to the prince elder brother to eat, the prince elder brother will definitely be very happy."

Caihe said: "Princess Yue, we have to be quicker, otherwise we will be found and told to the Lord, and Caihe will not be able to eat it!"

It was the savage and willful princess Yue, and the picking lotus who ate the **** among the rockery. The two came, but her mood for picking dates broke. This princess Yue is savage and willful, and she had a feast with her last time, this is the palace, if she calculates her, it won't be worth it. Anyway, the dates were almost picked at this time. She crawled down the tree trunk and said to him: "Cousin, let's go back!"

"good."

The two gathered the dates. Just after walking a few steps, a voice came from behind them, "Brother Li Zhao."

Lu Manman was stunned. This little girl didn't stop her "enemy" in the first moment, but stopped him. What does this mean? She turned around and looked at Chu Yue, who was still wearing pink, she ran towards them, her face flushed, very cute.

No, you can't describe Chu Yue as cute, she is terrible.

She ran up to him and gasped: "Brother Li Zhao, Yue'er heard that you are here today to visit Brother Chu Qing's mother, so I deliberately asked Sister Caihe to bring me here."

After Caihe listened, with a black face, he saluted him: "Caihe has seen General Yunhui."

He said to Caihe: "Get up!"

"General Xie Yunhui."

He said to Chu Yue again, "Is there anything Princess Yue is looking for?"

She grinned and said, "Last time Brother Li Zhao taught Chu Yue, Chu Yue went back and thought about it. It was very reasonable. Moreover, the father said that too, he said that in the capital, except for Brother Li Zhao, no one would dare. Taught me, and also said that I will come to see Brother Li Zhao more in the future, and let Brother Li Zhao teach me more things that I can't learn in the palace."

Lu Manman stared at Chu Yue stubbornly. Chu Yue was twelve or thirteen years old. When she was first in love, wouldn't she have a good impression of him? If this is the case, it would be terrible. She is a distinguished princess, and she is favored by the saint. Besides, if the Li family really marries the royal family, then the saint will not be afraid that the Li family is too strong and shake the foundation of the country.

She immediately blocked in front of him, trying to isolate the line of sight between her and him, but her head only reached the position of his chin, unable to cover him completely.

Lu Manman smiled at Chu Yue and said, "Princess Yue, why are you here?"

Chu Yue saw Lu Manman, but she still had lingering fears, but as a princess of a country, of course she could not lower her head. Her voice was not small, but she was obviously lacking in confidence. She said: "I am talking to Brother Li Zhao, and it is not your turn to come. Interrupt."

"Yes, Princess Yue is right. But Princess Yue, you are young. I'm afraid I don't know that this cold palace land is not accessible to anyone! You are a princess, and the Holy Master knows at most to say a few words about you, but Some people are different."

As Lu Manman spoke, he was already looking at Caihe, who was standing behind Chu Yue. This Caihe was unusual. She dared to mess around in the palace. She didn't have a good impression of her and always felt that she was not a kind person. But from what she has seen so far, she really can't tell who is Caihe and what she wants to do.

Chu Yue listened to Lu Manman's words, and she protected Caihe and said, "Lu Manman, this matter does not matter to Sister Caihe, I begged Sister Caihe to bring me here."

It seems that Caihe's status is not low in Chu Yue's heart. And she is the maid of the East Palace, so and so, it also shows that her status in the East Palace is not low.

When she thought of Donggong, she thought of the prince Chu Ran, who had a scholarly spirit, and thought of the scene when she met him.

She is not familiar with Chu Ran, but when she gets along with him, she doesn't feel that there is any prince's air in him, but a calm air emanates from him, making her feel that he is different!

Lu Manman said: "I can't think that Princess Yue is a lot of love and righteousness! Just now I heard that Duke Yue came to pick the dates, but I have already picked the dates in the short place. If Princess Yue wants it, please take it from me. !"

Chu Yue saw the jujube in Lu Manman’s arms and saw the big tree again. She thought to herself that it was absolutely impossible for Lu Manman to climb the tree to pick the dates. General Yunjun must have picked it for her. Don't want the dates in Lu Manman's arms, she wants him to help her pick them.

Although she is not very old, she learned from her father the last time that he was particularly satisfied with General Yunhu and hoped that the Li family could marry the royal family. There are only three sisters in her family. The eldest sister and the second sister are already married. Although she has not reached the age of marriage, she can already be married. After the marriage, he will be able to marry her in two or three years.

The truth he told her last time was something that no one else had ever told her, and she also felt that she was full of people who please her, and she needed someone to remind her all the time. And this person is him.

Chu Yue blushed a little, she lowered her head slightly, and then said in a low voice: "General Yunhui, I don't know if you are free or not, I want you to help me pick some dates."

Lu Manman saw all Chu Yue's expressions in her eyes, and she thought, what she was really afraid of.

Although she had already discussed with the old general's wife, she wanted to give him a concubine. And she also mentioned it to him again and again, wanting to give him a concubine. She also felt that she was selfish and could not delay him by marrying him and not having a baby for him. But when such a thing came, she would feel unbearable.

Through this incident, she completely understood that she couldn’t bear to be concubine, and she couldn’t bear to live under the same roof with any woman in the name of his wife, let alone allow him to say the same things to her and other women. The same relationship.

Lu Manman suddenly took his arm, as if to declare sovereignty, she said: "No, we still have business."

When Chu Yue saw it, she also plucked up his sleeves with courage, "Brother Li Zhao didn't refuse this princess. When will it be your turn to speak?"

"I mean what my cousin meant. Ask him if you don't believe me."

Chu Yue looked at him, "Brother Li Zhao, is this really the case?"

He thought, Chu Yue is also more willful, but her temperament is not bad, maybe it was because she suffered from Lu Manman last time. As a princess, she wanted to get her face back in this way.

As Chu Yue's elder brother, he didn't say anything if he didn't grow up with her, and he didn't do anything for her. If it were before, climbing up a tree to pick dates would be a trivial matter for him. Now this is not something that can't be done, it's just that the process is a bit more difficult. If Chu Yue really wanted him to pick her dates, then he would go.

Chu Qing said: "If your Royal Highness really wants freshly picked dates, it's okay."

When Lu Manman heard it, she was immediately annoyed. She couldn't bear to let him climb the tree to pick jujubes, but he helped Chu Yue pick the fruit. In terms of appearance and figure, Chu Yue, this little girl, could not compare to this city's capital. Lu Manman, who has the title of "female"?

She said directly: "No."

Chu Yue also confronted Lu Manman thoroughly, and she said, "Why not?"

"Princess Yue, you should have heard about the matter between me and my cousin. Why don't you say it?"

"This princess has heard of it, but you are not married yet. You are just his cousin."

She was choked to speak, although he promised her that he would not marry forever except her, but it was just a verbal promise. How long can he hold on? Besides, the princess of Chu Yue and Western Chu Kingdom, she is only thirteen years old now, of course, her figure and appearance are not comparable to her. After two or three years, Chu Yue was a downright and generous woman, and she was also old.

She looked at him, waiting for his answer, but he didn't understand what she meant, and said to her: "Cousin, you go to Suyun Temple and wait for me first, and I will be back soon."

Listening to him say this, she is even more angry. He not only has to pick the fruit for Chu Yue, but also spread her away. Is it really as simple as picking the fruit?

Lu Manman didn't leave, but Chu Yue said, "Lu Manman, Brother Li Zhao has already spoken, why are you still such a cheeky, don't you go back to Suyun Palace?"

She shook her lips, still looking at him, but he said, "Cousin, obey, go home soon!"

He even told her to go, and she said, "Cousin, then you can live with Princess Yue."

After that, she turned and left.

She just turned around and her nose was sour. She thought to herself, Li Zhao, you big idiot, do you really do not understand or not, Chu Yue is interesting to you, why did you agree to help her pick the fruit? If he really doesn't understand, that's all. But what if he doesn't understand it? She realized at this time that she cared about him so much, much more than she thought.

Chu Qing looked at the direction she was leaving, and felt that the tone of the last sentence she said was a bit wrong. He thought to himself, did I say the wrong thing just now?

Chu Yue raised her head, she looked at him innocently, and then said, "Brother Li Zhao, let's go pick the fruit!"

He nodded, and walked towards the jujube tree with Chu Yue. But I was still thinking, did he really say the wrong thing just now?

Lu Manman returned to the Suyun Temple. The Liang’s former maid Rongsu had already returned. Rongsu met Lu Manman, but she was very kind. When she saw the jujube in her arms, she smiled even more. She said: "You are Lu Girl, right? I heard the empress talking about you just now."

Even though she was so unhappy in her heart, she couldn't write her unhappiness on her face. She used her emotions to hurt Rong Su. She could only smile and said, "What did Aunt Liang say about me?"

Rong Su took the jujube in Lu Manman's arms, and said, "Ms. Lu said that Miss Lu is different from everyone she has met. Empress loves Ms. Lu very much!"

She walked in with Rongsu, and she said, "I'm just an ordinary person."

"Ms. Lu is so average. This average person can't climb to the tree and pick the jujube. We also pick the jujube from the jujube tree on weekdays, but the jujube tree is too high, so I stand on tiptoe. The only thing that can’t be picked up is a bamboo pole. But the jujubes that have been beaten are often bruised. They don’t look good and they don’t taste good. Moreover, we want to find a longer bamboo pole in our cold palace. It’s also difficult! So the jujubes on that jujube tree are pecked by birds every year. We can see but can’t eat.”

Listening to Rong Su's words, Lu Manman's mood improved a lot. She said: "The jujube on the top of the tree is fully exposed to the sun and is the sweetest."

Rong Su nodded again and again, "Yeah! I will wash the date later, and send some to the other halls. Although there used to be festivals when I was outside, it is just a bunch of poor people now."

"Sister Rongsu, are these enough? If it is not enough, I will pick some more later."

"Enough, enough, how many people can there be in this cold palace, besides, those women who are depressed and unhappy all day, also eat less."

When the two walked, they arrived at the main hall of Suyun Hall. The Liang family heard the two voices early, and she walked out and said, "Manman, Qing... Where's Zhao'er?"

As soon as she mentioned him, she remembered that he was still helping Princess Yue picking fruits, and her mood was bad again. She said, "He has something to do, he will be back soon."

Liang saw that Lu Manman's face was wrong, she sat opposite her and asked, "Man Man, if you believe Aunt Liang, then tell Aunt Liang, what is Zhaoer doing?"

She took a sip of tea and said in a sullen voice: "When we came back from picking the dates, we met Princess Yue, and Princess Yue was pestering him to pick her fruit."

Liang was also a person who came here. Seeing Lu Manman's expression and tone of voice, she knew that she was angry.

She smiled and said, "Manman, don't worry, Zhaoer will never have anything to do with Princess Yue."

"She has said so clearly, the saint asked her to contact her cousin more and let her learn from her cousin what she could not learn in the palace."

Liang smiled, "Zhao'er is a sensible person. No matter what, it is impossible for him and Princess Yue. You must rest assured about this."
