10. The princess surnamed Bai

The spring days have not been enjoyed much, and summer is here.

On a breeze afternoon, Lu Hailan and Zhu Yan set up a chessboard in the pavilion in the courtyard to play chess. Lin Xiaohuan held his chin and sat on the right side of Lu Hailan, watching drowsy as the two of them slowly playing chess. Their eyelids were closed and opened again, and they struggled very hard.

Wayne came over with three bowls of iced sour plum soup and put only one piece of ice for the bowl of the old eunuch Zhu Yan. Lin Huan's all ice was all ice, and only Lu Hailan's bowl was normally configured. He put away the tray and put it under his armpit, his face hesitated, and said, "Your Highness, I have something to report to you."

Lu Hailan held the edge of the bowl, fell a piece of it in his hand, and said casually: "Tell me."

"That's right." Waynedu frowned and organized his words, "I just received an order from the palace two days ago to ask the slave to sort out the West Courtyard. Today, I received the news that a noble man came out of the palace and moved into the West Courtyard."

In addition to the Emperor, there are naturally only the imperial concubines in the palace. His Majesty is not interested in women now. There are only three concubines in the palace. One is the Empress Zhou who gave birth to the second prince and the eldest princess, the second is the Empress Xia who had just given birth to the third prince, and the second is the Empress Xia who had just given birth to the third prince, and the Empress Bai who still has nothing to come out of this day.

Lu Hailan had no expression on his face. The old eunuch Zhu Yan put down the soup bowl and said, "Which noble person is he? Could it be that he came to escape the summer heat?"

"It's the White Princess." Waynedu unconsciously lowered his voice, "It is said... I'm here to settle the baby."

The atmosphere in the pavilion was a little silent for a moment. Even Lin Huan, who couldn't quite understand what everyone was saying, closed his mouth and did not dare to ask. Lu Hailan was the eldest son of the emperor and the legitimate prince, but the queen died early. He was disabled and had never appeared in public. There were all kinds of rumors outside. However, the silence in the pavilion was not because of the child who had not yet been born, but because of the identity of the White Queen.

The surname of the White Princess is Bai, and the White family in the Northern Xinjiang.

Logically speaking, since the other party is here, Lu Hailan should have visited him, but it is not advisable to let the other party know about his physical affairs, so he wrote a letter with his own hands and asked Wayne to send it over, even if he had greeted him.

In response to this, the person in the West Courtyard replied a few greetings and asked Wayne to bring it back, which would have completed this process. From now on, we are peaceful and peaceful. Other palaces are large, one in the east and the other, and no one can stop us from each other.

More than a month passed in a blink of an eye.

Lin Huan, who studied hard, finally got the reward that he had longed for a long time. Lu Hailan picked up a suitable day and took him to the Yuelan Grassland to ride a horse. Yuelan Grassland was next to the palace. It was not long before summer began. The rainy season had not yet arrived. The grass had just grown past Lu Hailan's wheelchair pedals, which was not the most beautiful time. Lin Huan was not interested in seeing the scenery, so he chose the choice in the horse circle. Finally, he chose a big red-headed horse. The horseman looked at his small body and suggested that he change a little mare. But the young master didn't listen to the advice... In the end, it alarmed Lu Hailan, and Lin Huan agreed to change the horse with aggrievedness.

Lin Huan, who was riding a horse, was having fun in the grassland. Two horsemen followed behind one left and right. Lu Hailan was driving a wheelchair to the top of the slope on one side, and looked at the three riders running around from a distance. Wayne Du stood by the chair with a parasol to block the too bright and dazzling sunlight above him. His eyes suddenly swept to see somewhere behind the hillside, and his expression changed slightly.

"Your Highness, someone is coming over there." He leaned down and leaned into Lu Hailan's ear and said, "Sister looked at it. It seemed that it was the palace maid next to the White Princess."

Lu Hailan looked along his gaze and saw a figure walking far below the hillside. He frowned and said to Wayne: "You go over and take a look."

Waynedu responded and rushed to the man, but soon returned and reported to Lu Hailan: "She said that the White Princess also came to have fun today. Now she rested on the hillside on the other side, and prepared some snacks and drinks, and invited His Highness to come and enjoy them together."

Lu Hailan brought Lin Huan to ride a horse to see the weather. No one except him could know in advance. Unless the White Princess was waiting on the grassland every day, she would really not be able to create such an encounter... This is probably a coincidence.

Since you have met them, it is impossible to tell if you avoid them. But this person must not know the secret of Lu Hailan's body. The righteous way is that the Tian family has no affection, and Lu Hailan and his brothers and sisters are destined to be unable to live in harmony like ordinary people. Lu Hailan's legs are his biggest weakness, and once this weakness is known by someone who is interested and used to attack him, the consequences are unimaginable...

Many thoughts quickly flipped Lu Hailan's mind, and finally he raised his head and made a decision.

"Then go and meet... Waynedu, let the other party lead the way."

……………………

There was a pergola under the hillside on the shady back, with a small round table and two chairs in the shed. Lu Hailan's wheelchair drove close to him and saw the woman sitting on the left chair at first sight.

She was wearing a blue-bottomed skirt, her hair was tied into a single ponytail, and she walked around from behind and hung on her shoulders. She had a shallow smile on her cheeks, and her facial features were very soft. Seeing Lu Hailan slowly floating in her wheelchair, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she smiled.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"Father Bai."

The two looked at each other for a moment, but the White Princess said: "Has the prince been able to eat? If you don't dislike me, I made some snacks and the juice squeezed by Xiaomei with watermelon." She pointed to the small round table beside her, which contained several open lunch boxes and two glasses of bright red juice. Lu Hailan nodded, stopped by the table in a wheelchair, picked up a biscuit from the lunch box and raised it to her mouth.

Princess Bai looked at him, frowned slightly when she saw him take a bite, and said, "Isn't it too sweet?"

Lu Hailan shook his head and said, "It's not sweet, but I don't like the taste of honey."

"Then try this." The White Princess pushed a box of small cakes at Lu Hailan. "This one was steamed with milk and eggs, and some raisins were added."

Lu Hailan looked at the biscuit that had only bitten in his hand, frowned and put it into his mouth, chewed it down and swallowed it. Then he looked up at Princess Bai and said, "Is Concubine Bai's mother used to living in the West Courtyard?"

"It's pretty good, quieter than the palace." The White Princess took the watermelon juice and took a sip, turned her head to look at the endless grassland. "I've been so stuffy that I'm so relieved that I feel much more comfortable when I come to such a wide-minded place..."

Her mind was leisurely and her tone was natural like chatting with someone she knew. This relaxed and comfortable attitude almost infected Lu Hailan, but it was only almost the case.

Lu Hailan ate snacks quietly and did not respond.

Princess Bai didn't seem to be a talkative person. Lu Hailan didn't respond, and she didn't continue talking. The two sat face to face, eating snacks and watching the scenery. A sudden eagle roared in the sky. Lu Hailan looked in the sound, but saw a small black dot hovering in the distance.

Yuelan grassland was originally a royal hunting ground, but there was a special place to store prey, which was separated by guardrails and would not be released normally. The eagle was mostly flying out of it. The White Princess was also looking up and suddenly said, "I also raised an eagle when I was a child. Later, I wanted to enter the palace, so I gave it to others... Does the prince like eagles?"

Lu Hailan shook his head and said, "I don't know, I haven't raised it before."

"Eagle is an unruly creature." said the White Princess. "First of raising an eagle, you must first suck it, tie it with iron chains, so that it can see food and water, but it cannot eat it. It angers it again and again, asking it to struggle with all its strength, not to rest, becoming weaker and more and more weaker and more hungry... It will feel scared, tormenting it, to death, hunger and pain, and the hawkman will tease it with wooden sticks, making it unable to sleep, and its will will be on the verge of collapse... At this time, the hawkman will give it a little warmth and take it gentle care, and it will no longer resist it, nor will it have the physical strength to resist."

Princess Bai looked up at the eagle soaring in the sky, her voice was filled with indescribable fatigue, and she said softly: "When all the rebelliousness and unrulyness on its body disappeared, this eagle... was finally done."

Lu Hailan looked at her and lowered his eyes thoughtfully.

Princess Bai suddenly stood up.

"Ah, I'm full." She crossed her fingers and stretched her arms to the top of her head, stretched her waist, and then turned her head to Lu Hailan and said, "I want to go to the farming site in front to get some fresh milk and cheese. Will the prince come together?"

"No, I should leave." Lu Hailan declined, "There is still class to attend in the afternoon, so please forgive me for Concubine Bai's mother."

Princess Bai smiled and said, "Then go quickly and be careful on the way."

Lu Hailan bid farewell to Princess Bai and returned to the previous hillside with Wayne. Lin Xiaohuan had already found that he was gone and was a little anxious. When he saw him, he jumped off his horse and ran over. His mouth opened and he couldn't speak, and his eyes were full of accusations.

Lu Hailan pinched his angry face and smiled and said, "Have you ridden enough? It's time to go back for dinner, and there's still class in the afternoon."

"How long has it been?" Lin Huan complained dissatisfied, "Is it okay to not attend classes in the afternoon? Finally, you only took me out once..."

"I'll bring you here in two days." Lu Hailan made a promise, "But if you don't do a good job in class, I won't bring you here."

Lin Huan stared at his eyes, then he was relieved, lowered his head and said in a weak state: "I know, I just study hard."

Lu Hailan smiled, but his eyes passed by him and looked at the grassland in the distance - the White Princess, who is also a very interesting person... Is Aoying?
