When he heard Yuan Cixian's voice, Lu Shiqing had to pretend not to know. He said the word "全" and lowered his eyes to think about how he should face her as a servant - was she surprised or angry, confused or indifferent?

Unexpectedly, before he could think about it, Yuan Cixian revealed her true colors. While approaching, she smiled and said, "Shima Lu!"

He quickly got into the show, looked up, and countless emotions flashed in his eyes, three points of surprise, three points of confusion, three points of indifference, and then asked with a perfect angrily point: "Why are you?"

After this, he sighed in his heart. Since he got involved with this girl, he has not been able to do serious things every day, and his acting skills have improved day by day.

Yuan Cixian looked at him with a smile: "It's me, Mr. Lu, are you surprised? Are you surprised?"

I'm surprised you, a hibiscus flower!

He narrowed his narrow phoenix eyes, looked at the two black beards on her lips, and a short slim blue cloth on her back, leaning against the back of the chair, saying, "Mr., if Lu is not wrong, you are breaking into a private house. According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Lu can report to the official to arrest you."

Yuan Cixian shook her head with confidence: "No, you misunderstood."

Lu Shiqing waited for her to explain.

"A few days later it will be the middle of July. The ghost gate will be wide open and the yin energy is very strong. I am afraid that you will be uneasy and will break into some monsters and monsters. Therefore, when the sunset is dark, you will take advantage of the danger and come to try your house in person." Her face did not change and her heart was not beating, and she said it as if it were true.

Lu Shiqing laughed and said, "I'm afraid there are no monsters and monsters in the world, but only the county lord, you."

The person who was used to compare with the demons and monsters was not angry at all, and said with a serious expression: "Mr. Lu, I am serious." After she said that, she looked around and picked up a pen at his hand, pulled a piece of rice paper, bent over and painted. In a blink of an eye, a simple map of Lu's mansion appeared on the paper.

She pointed to the openings above and said, "Your side gate guards that are not facing the street are too omissions, so I came in just a move."

Lu Shiqing thought to himself that if he had no omissions, how could she stand here and give advice to the country? She realized: "Oh, thank you for the county lord, Lu will definitely reorganize these places in the future."

Yuan Cixian straightened her waist and looked at him: "That won't work, you have to leave a door for me."

"Why do you have to pass the side door if you keep the door open?"

"You mean, welcome me to the gate?"

Lu Shiqing choked, pulled out the pen from her hand, put it back on the pen stand, and said, "No welcome." After saying that, he glanced at her face and frowned, "Your beard is crooked."

"Oh." She responded, pulled off a few tufts of hair after suffering, hid it carefully in her sleeve, and then stood upright.

Lu Shiqing put away the orchid sketch and saw her standing still, asking, "Do you have something to do?"

Yuan Cixian beat his waist and back: "Mr. Lu, I'm thinking about your safety. After working hard this trip, don't you invite me to sit down and have a tea?"

He sighed, "Please take care of yourself." Seeing her running to pour the tea, he added, "The white porcelain tea set on the table is not allowed to touch."

Yuan Cixian glanced back at him and said secretly, "Stingy". She changed into a set of celadon tea sets. After drinking enough, she sat down opposite him and looked around at his study.

Like outside, his study room is also arranged in a straightforward manner. Even the frames of the antique shelf on the side are symmetrical up and down, left and right, and there are no strange antique treasures in the inner litter. After all, many valuable objects usually cannot be collected in two pairs.

Yuan Cixian curled her lips and sighed. What a silhouette shelf, just dismantle it.

Lu Shiqing put away the painting and tied up the ribbon. Seeing her sighing, he didn't know what dissatisfaction with his study room, so he said coldly: "It's going to be late, and if the county magistrate is unwell, it's better to go home early."

She quickly withdrew her gaze, waved her hand to indicate that she was not feeling uncomfortable, and then tried her best to make a fuss: "Actually, I'll have some important things to tell you."

"You said."

"What's it..." She pondered for a while, and finally remembered something she could say, "Oh, I came out of Hanliang Hall a few days ago and met the Sixth Prince to teach His Thirteenth Prince to learn martial arts. My intuition was not right. What happened in the court?"

Lu Shiqing stumbled slightly and raised his eyes and said, "You are a girl, what do you care about these things?"

"Curious, I'm a very curious girl's home."

“…”

Lu Shiqing didn't want to talk to her about this, but remembered what she comforted him last night, and looked at her current gray dress, and her attitude could not be tough. She said softly, "It's a little bit of movement."

Yuan Cixian was curious that it was true, but she did not want to pry out the news from Lu Shiqing's mouth, but she had nothing to say. Hearing this, he said in surprise: "Would you like to tell me?" As he said that, he approached him and whispered, "What is it?" He looked like he was looking forward to sharing the little secret with her.

He coughed and explained first: "It's not a secret, it will be known to everyone in a few days."

"What I knew before the courtiers was the secret." She smiled with ease, "But don't worry, I must be tight-lipped."

She said it well, even if she knew it a moment before the courtiers, he had leaked the news. Lu Shiqing really felt that she should stay away from her, but now she can't even keep her mouth shut.

He secretly hated for a moment and said, "The Second Highness has committed a crime. The saint is preparing to imprison him in the mansion and make him think of his mistakes in the back door. Not only the Thirteenth Highness's martial arts, but also the Jinwu Guard, which was originally under his control, will be handed over to the Sixth Highness."

Yuan Cixian digested the news in her belly and suddenly asked: "Is the 'incident' you said related to our discovery last time in the suburbs of Chang'an?"

Lu Shiqing glanced at her, seemed a little surprised, and then said, "Yes."

Yuan Cixian opened her lips slightly and said in surprise: "It's amazing." He asked again, "But I told you last time that this might be a frame-up. Have you ever turned around to verify?"

"Lu has done all the testimony that should be done, and the saint is also very clear about the whole story, so he doesn't bother the county lord."

She said "Oh" and looked a little disappointed.

Lu Shiqing raised his eyebrows: "The county lord seems to be very worried about the Second Highness."

Yuan Cixian choked. This man was so cunning that he actually threw such a deadly signature for her for nothing. If it was passed into the ears of the saint, wouldn't he have misunderstood that the Yuan family had the second prince's team?

She explained: "I am shameful to be innocent and it is easy to get rid of the crime. We should be dealt with with caution. But since you said that the saint has found out the truth and the second prince did make a mistake, I naturally have nothing to say. I just saw that the candidate for the crown prince was broken and worried about the future of the Great Zhou."

Lu Shiqing smiled meaningfully: "The county lord is quite worried about the country and the people."

Yuan Cixian thought to herself that was not that. She was about to speak again when she suddenly heard the door knocking, Xuan's voice came in: "Son, are you in the house?"

Both of them had a stiff neck.

Unable to hear the agreement, Xuan continued, "Son, is my mother coming in?"

Lu Shiqing and Yuan Cixian looked at each other, jumped up together, almost colliding with their heads.

One of the two did not want to appear in front of their future mother-in-law in such a sneaky manner, and the other was unwilling to misunderstand his mother and forced him to propose marriage to the Yuan family.

Lu Shiqing quickly stopped him: "My grandma, wait." Then he looked around and pointed the direction to Yuan Cixian.

Yuan Cixian understood and rushed over. He rushed to the door quickly, calmed down for a while, tidied up his clothes, and moved the door: "My grandma, are you asking me for trouble?"

Xuan Shi's eyes crossed his shoulder and swept in: "Does there be someone else in your room?"

Lu Shiqing must have shook his head: "No."

Xuan stepped into the house and said worriedly, "I heard that a famous servant got my order and brought you tea, but I never explained this way, but no one wanted to harm you..." She looked around and asked, "No one has ever been here?"

Lu Shiqing silently said firmly: "No one has ever been here, there has always been one person, don't worry, my mother."

Xuan said "Oh", looked at his old robe and shirt, and said strangely: "You asked someone to prepare water earlier, why haven't you taken a bath yet? The water is about to cool down." As he said that, he glanced at the clean room.

Lu Shiqing couldn't help but tighten his waist and back. He likes to be clean on weekdays, and he also has a clean room in his study. If he has not finished his official duties at night, he will take a bath here after dinner. Just now, Yuan Cixian was driven into it by her.

He hurriedly said, "Before my son left, I remembered that something was delayed before I finished it."

Xuan's eyes were already a little suspicious, but there was still a smile on his lips, saying, "She is busy outside, I'll go inside to see if the water is cold. It's autumn, it's cold at night, but it's not careless."

When Lu Shiqing heard this, he hurriedly reached out to stop him: "My mother, I have a good attitude and will not freeze myself. You go and rest."

However, Xuan was determined to go in, and shoved his hand away, and still smiled very gently: "What are you polite with Ah Niang? Ah Niang will try it and go back."

I couldn't stop it anymore. Lu Shiqing couldn't really get into trouble with her mother, so she had to follow her and go into the inner room. She was about to cover her face with a headache, but she saw that the clean room was empty and there was no one there.

He breathed a sigh of relief in confusion. Xuan also paused and glanced back and forth inside.

The clean room is simple to be decorated and can be seen at a glance. At this moment, the screen is closed and the window is also tied up from the inside. It seems that there is no problem. Xuan's eyes gradually faded away. He walked to the edges of a few wooden barrels in front of the door, bent over and touched the wall of the outer barrel, and said, "It's still warm, hurry up and pour water to take a shower."

She said as she went into the room with a bathtub and her chin was a pause.

Wait, this bathtub looks quite big.

Lu Shiqing obviously realized something. Seeing that she seemed to want to step forward, she picked up the wooden barrel first and said, "Okay, I'll take a shower now, my mother will go back."

He said as he carried water to the bathtub. When he walked to the side of the bucket, he looked down and frowned.

Yuan Cixian squatted inside with her arms like a mushroom, tilting her head and looking at him pitifully.

It’s not that she doesn’t understand the reason for jumping into the window, but because the window locks, if she chooses to escape, she will make a sound. She just heard the movement outside. She was in a hurry and had to step into his bathtub.

Seeing that he didn't pour water in, Xuan was suspicious again and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Shiqing turned around and said, "No, I just saw some dirty things on the wall of the bucket, but it was not in the way."

After saying that, he picked up the wooden barrel, tilted it in, and compared it with Yuan Cixian: Get out of the way.

This bucket is so big, where can she let her go? Yuan Cixian refused to follow her and shook her head desperately with a bitter face.

Lu Shiqing had no choice but to pick up an empty piece of land, avoid her and watered the water. After that, he would carry a few more buckets and pour one bucket into it.

Only then did Xuan believe him, tell him a few words, and go out.

When she walked completely away, Yuan Cixian, who was soaked in the water, stood up in a flash, wiped the water stains on her face randomly, and shouted at the person in the room who was pretending to untie her belt: "Lu Shiqing, you are too much--!"

Lu Shiqing was stunned by her yelling, and she didn't even pay attention to her name. Seeing that she was embarrassed, she turned her head awkwardly and coughed: "I..."

He couldn't speak, and saw the hand towel on the towel rack at first glance, so he took it off and handed it to her without looking at it: "Wipe."

Yuan Cixian was in the water and was so angry that she waved her slap, and the water splashed everywhere. Fortunately, she was wearing the servant's coarse cloth clothes, which was wet and was not close to her body, so that she would not reveal her skin. Otherwise, she might want to gough Lu Shiqing's eyes.

She said coldly: "I don't wipe it. You have a cleanliness obsessiveness? You love cleanliness? I don't use your hand towel!"

Lu Shiqing frowned, turned her head, and maintained her gaze above her neck with a very gentlemanly, explaining: "It's new."

She choked and said angrily: "The new one is not good either, you can't touch it!"

Lu Shiqing took a deep breath. He despised others for the first time he was despised by others in so many years.

He sighed and reminded: "Little ancestor, you are all in my bathtub." He still disliked his hand towel.
