Embarrassment

Lu Wanning said with a puzzled look: "What happened? Why did you say that?"

Xu Lingyan took a breath and said: "I just went to talk to Chai Xiunv, and I heard that Ke Xiunv, who was in the same room with her, came back from outside and said that a beautiful lady had collided with the emperor in the imperial garden and was killed by Xu Jieyu.

You slapped me in the face without saying anything, and even punished me by kneeling down. You went out alone after the meal, so I was worried that this person was you."

Lu Wanning smiled and said, "Then you have nothing to worry about. I didn't go to the Imperial Garden."

Xu Lingyan scratched his head and said with a smile: "Anyway, if it's not Sister Lu, you're fine."

After saying that, Xu Lingyan looked around the house and found that Lu Rui hadn't come back yet, "Why hasn't Sister Lu come back yet? Could it be..."

Could it be that the person who collided with Shengjia was actually Lu Rui?

Thinking of this, Xu Lingyan's face turned pale and she said to Lu Wanning: "What should we do, Sister Lu? Should we go find Grandma Miao?"

Aunt Miao was the one who taught them the rules. These beautiful girls were all under her care.

Lu Wanning comforted Xu Lingyan softly, "Sister Xu, don't panic. We're not sure yet whether that person is Sister Lu. What if we rashly go to see Sister Miao, and then Sister Lu comes back?"

"But...but I always feel a little uneasy in my heart." Xu Lingyan always felt that that person was Lu Rui.

But she thought again, what Lu Wanning said was right. If they went to see Aunt Miao rashly and Lu Rui came back later, Lu Rui might be punished.

When the two of them were talking, Weng Qian didn't interrupt, and her expression didn't even move, as if she didn't hear what they said at all.

Xu Lingyan waited uneasily until Haizheng. Lu Rui hadn't come back yet. Xu Lingyan finally couldn't sit still anymore. She stood up and said to Lu Wanning: "Sister Lu, please accompany me to find Aunt Miao. Sister Lu, at this time

She hasn't come back yet, even if the person in the Royal Garden is not her, something must have happened to her."

Lu Wanning did not refuse this time, stood up and said, "Let's go, I'll go with you."

Before leaving the house, Lu Wanning turned back to get a cloak and put it on, and reminded Xu Lingyan: "Sister Xu, please add some clothes too, it's still a bit cold in the evening in the capital in April."

Xu Lingyan nodded and took a cloak and put it on.

After leaving the door, a gust of cold wind blew. Xu Lingyan thought that it was lucky that she heard Sister Lu wear a cloak.

After the two found Nanny Miao, Xu Lingyan told Nanny Miao their purpose of coming. After hearing this, Nanny Miao just said the words "I know" lightly, without any intention of asking anyone to look for Lu Rui.

.

"Mother Miao..."

Xu Lingyan looked a little anxious when she saw Grandma Miao's attitude. She wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lu Wanning, "Since Grandma Miao already knows, the two of us will go back first."

Although Xu Lingyan didn't know why Lu Wanning interrupted her, she followed Lu Wanning and followed Lu Wanning out of the room.

"Sister Lu, Grandma Miao's attitude just now clearly shows that she doesn't care about this matter. My sister wants to beg her a few more words. Why are you stopping her?"

Lu Wanning shook her head and said, "You know that Aunt Miao is careless, but you already knew it."

"Have you known it for a long time?" Xu Lingyan didn't understand.

Lu Wanning looked at Xu Lingyan's confused look and couldn't help but sigh. She didn't know why the Xu family wanted to send Xu Lingyan to the palace to participate in this election. Xu Lingyan's simple temperament was really not suitable for entering the palace.

However, seeing that the two of them were getting along quite happily these days, and that Xu Lingyan really cared about her, Lu Wanning was still willing to mention a few words to her when he could.

"If there was a collision with the Holy Driver in the Imperial Garden, and the person Xu Jieyu ordered to slap and kneel down was Sister Lu, then do you think Xu Jieyu would have someone come to Chuxiu Palace to tell Aunt Miao,

By the way, do you want to ask Aunt Miao to accuse you?"

Aunt Miao was innocently implicated in this, and she probably already hated Lu Rui in her heart. They came to tell Aunt Miao that Lu Rui had not returned to the room, which was their duty as roommates, but if they behaved in front of Aunt Miao

Lu Rui is too caring and will inevitably make Aunt Miao angry at them.

She is not afraid. Aunt Miao will not do anything to her, but that is not necessarily the case for Xu Lingyan. If Aunt Miao hates Xu Lingyan, she does not need to worry about it. She only needs to teach Xu Lingyan the rules every day.

If you are more strict, you can brush Xu Lingyan down with just a few moves during the final selection of palace candidates.

Xu Lingyan has no power, so where can he go to reason?

Xu Lingyan is a bit naive, but she is not stupid. Lu Wanning has already talked about it so far. Is there anything else she doesn't understand?

Thinking of what would have happened if she begged Aunt Miao just now if you, Lu Wan, hadn't stopped her, she immediately became frightened. After she was frightened, she was even more grateful to Lu Wanning.

"Sister Lu, thank you very much just now."

Lu Wanning shook her head, "It's nothing, it's just that the palace is not as good as outside. Sister Xu, you should think more carefully about your future actions."

Xu Lingyan scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I understand, Sister Lu."

Xu Lingyan was still a little worried about Lu Rui, but her relationship with Lu Rui was far from enough for her to fall in love with him for Lu Rui.

It's just that we have been together for such a long time, and after returning to our residence, Xu Lingyan lay on her bed and turned around, still having trouble falling asleep.

Although Lu Wanning was lying on the bed, she did not toss and turn like Xu Lingyan, but she was actually a little unable to sleep. Although Lu Rui's experience tonight was caused by Lu Rui's own choice, there was also some intentional action on her part. If Lu Rui lost her life because of this,

life, she would inevitably feel guilty and uneasy.

Fortunately, Lu Rui finally came back at midnight, but she looked really embarrassed.

Her hair was wet and hanging on her face, and the plain white gauze skirt that was supposed to be fairy-like was also wet and stuck to her body. Her whole face was blue and purple, and she was shaking non-stop.

Lu Wanning and Xu Lingyan, who stood up after hearing the noise, were both startled by her appearance. They helped Lu Rui sit on a chair. Xu Lingyan took a cloth to wipe her hair and muttered: "Why did it happen like this?"

It's the same as something fished out of the water."

Lu Rui seemed to have lost his soul at this moment. He was just shaking non-stop. If you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of chattering teeth. He couldn't answer Xu Lingyan's words at all.

Lu Wanning and Xu Lingyan helped Lu Rui change out of her wet clothes, dried her hair, and tucked her into the bed. Seeing that she was still shaking, Lu Wanning frowned and said, "This can't go on.

We need to find an imperial physician to take a look at her."

"But..." Xu Lingyan said worriedly: "Will Aunt Miao agree?"
