Knowing all this, Chu Yao couldn't help sighing, this Lu Yuan is really stupid.

Although this younger brother, Lu Cheng, was stubborn, he was rarely shrewd.

"Princess, my subordinates are back."

Nan Rong was invited by the people of Dali Temple to testify before, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw Chu Yao waving at the hidden guard in front of him.

"Princess, why don't you rest for a while?"

Recently, she saw with her own eyes how tired Chu Yao was, and the dark circles under her eyes almost came out.

Chu Yao yawned, nodded and said, "You are right."

After speaking, he fell back and lay down on the bed.

Soon, her breathing became long and regular, and she was clearly asleep.

Nan Rong has long been used to Chu Yao's instant sleep, so he calmly tidied up the room, took a look at Chu Yao and walked out of the room.

"Where's the princess?"

When Xiao Chen was in the palace, the emperor mentioned Chu Yao several times, but he rejected them all.

Master's warning was still in his ears, he didn't dare to gamble with Chu Yao, even though the emperor had already become suspicious of him if he did so.

As soon as he returned to the palace, he couldn't wait to see Chu Yao.

Nan Rong immediately pointed to the room.

"The princess is asleep."

Afterwards, Nanrong told Xiao Chen what happened in the mansion, and by the way, handed over to Nanli the things that Chu Yao sent someone to find earlier, and motioned him to report to the prince.

"This king will go to find that Lu Cheng. If the concubine wakes up, she will notify this king."

He glanced at the house and left with Nanli.

When Lu Cheng woke up, he saw an extraordinary handsome man sitting beside him, dressed in a luxurious robe, extremely dignified.

He rubbed his eyes and opened them again, the person in front of him was still there.

This man is not a fairy, he is not dreaming.

"My lord, Lu Cheng is awake."

Only then did Lu Cheng realize that the immortal in front of him turned out to be His Royal Highness Can Wang.

"Grassmen see the prince!"

Lu Cheng immediately got up from the bed and wanted to get out of bed to salute, but he fell headfirst to the ground.

"My lord, forgive me!"

Although there were stars in front of his eyes, Lu Cheng knelt down on the ground.

When he was in the outside world, he had heard rumors about the remnant king. Although the remnant king did not look like a prince at all, his aura was enough to make him surrender.

"Get up, the king has heard about you."

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he signaled Nanli to give the things to Lu Cheng.

"This is your brother's original salary, as well as the cost of his treatment."

Looking at the heavy purse in his hand, Lu Cheng's eyes got wet.

What was originally a desperate move actually had an effect.

"Caomin thanked the lord! It's just that the money is too much, brother Caomin's leg can no longer be healed."

He wanted to return it to Xiao Chen, but Nanli didn't reach out to take the purse.

"Hold it, it doesn't matter if you can't walk, but you have to read the book."

These words successfully made Lu Cheng's tears fall.

He glanced at Xiao Chen who was sitting in a wheelchair, then suddenly lowered his head and thanked him with sobs.

The lord is not good at conduct and he didn't give up on himself. He must cheer up his brother after he returns, and his brother must not disappoint the lord's wishes.

"Okay, get up. This king didn't give you the money for nothing."

Xiao Chen was still talking to Lu Cheng in this room, while Chu Yao woke up in that room.

"Princess, the prince has returned."

After Nanrong told Chu Yao what Xiao Chen had ordered, he cleansed her face.

Chu Yao hummed and stretched lazily.

She slept very well this time.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, she said without raising her head: "Nanrong, help me untie the belt behind me."

Chu Yao lay down again very relieved.

Suddenly a pair of big hands caressed her back, feeling cold to the touch, sliding down her back, causing tremors.

Startled, she quickly got up.

"My lord, why didn't you make a sound when you came in?"

Chu Yao, who had just woken up, spoke inadvertently with a trace of reproach.

Xiao Chen stiffened his hands and stood up.

"Before this king went to Lu Cheng."

After he finished speaking, Chu Yao understood what he meant.

"Has everything been dealt with?"

She originally wanted to tell Xiao Chen that she didn't know about that Lu Yuan, but that kid in Lu Cheng looked good, and he might be able to do something in the future.

It would be nice if he could receive it under his command.

Xiao Chen hummed, and then heard Chu Yao ask: "You let him go just like that?"

"Does the princess still want to keep him for dinner?"

It was rare for Xiao Chen to make a joke.

Chu Yao: "..."

Even if she stayed, Lu Cheng might not dare to eat it.

"Of course not, it's just that he is capable and courageous. He was very clever when he was a mistress in the inn, and he received more rewards than other mistresses every month. If he can be trained well, he may be able to serve the prince. effective."

As soon as Chu Yao finished speaking, she saw the smile on Xiao Chen's face.

"My lord, what's so funny about this? Could it be that you, like other children from aristocratic families, look down on people like Lu Cheng?"

"The concubine really wronged this king, why did this king ever say that?"

In Xiao Chen's eyes, although there is no concept of equality for everyone, he also knows the truth that people can make good use of it.

"This king knows about these things, don't worry, no matter if it is Lu Cheng or Lu Yuan, this king will not let go."

Chu Yao snorted, and she said how the big fox let the two brothers go so easily, it turned out to be teasing her.

"Since the prince has already made up his mind, it's inconvenient for me to ask more questions."

She said that on purpose, but made Xiao Chen laugh out loud.

"The sly and awkward look is really cute."

Chu Yao: "..."

She is angry!angry!Where is the awkwardness? !

"Don't be angry, I haven't figured out how to arrange them yet, but if Lu Cheng really goes to participate in the scientific examination, I believe he can still pass the exam."

Chu Yao was surprised now.

She didn't pay much attention to Lu Yuan before.

"My lord is so optimistic about Lu Yuan?"

"He was selected as a scholar at the age of ten. If it wasn't for his poor family, he would have already been in the temple by now."

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he sighed again: "It's a pity that people are conservative and stubborn, and their integrity is a bit rigid, and they don't know how to be flexible."

"He is not as good as Lu Cheng in this regard."

Chu Yao finally sighed.

Xiao Chen also nodded in agreement.

He was sure that if he found out about Lu Cheng's visit to the palace today, he would try his best to stop him.

Because in his heart, the king is the king and the minister is the minister, no matter how much wronged he has suffered, he should not provoke them.

Soon, Nanrong came in to serve Chu Yaojing's face, and not long after, the two had dinner together.

After dinner, Xiao Chen embraced the beautiful woman in his arms, and Chu Yao asked him about his entry into the palace today.

"It's nothing more than some temptations. It's just that he mentioned you several times, and I'm afraid he will make some moves recently."

After Xiao Chen finished speaking, he worried again: "I am not worried that he will send someone to assassinate you directly, maybe he will announce you into the palace directly."

If this is the case, he may not need to hide his strength.
