As soon as this meal was eaten, it lasted until the afternoon.
Zhang Qingjiu looked at the plate of pear blossom cakes brought specially by the maid, but couldn't eat it.
She drank three bowls of Chu Lansheng's soup in a row.
She thought that it was definitely not because she saw Chu Lan's graceful posture and delicious appearance in serving the soup that she deliberately let him come twice more. It did not mean that she had forgiven his petty thoughts. It was just because she was really thirsty and hungry.
.
Seeing that Zhang Qingjiu's frown had relaxed and his slightly pale face had returned to its original rosy color, Chu Lan smiled slightly and reached out to ask the maid to take away the food.
"I'll ask Huo Wu to take you back later." Chu Lan narrowed her eyes, with a faint smile hanging on the corner of her mouth.
Zhang Qingjiu was half leaning in his chair, and all the bones in his body were saying "relaxation and joy".
Glancing at Chu Lan, Zhang Qingjiu couldn't help but snorted softly.
Why do you think this man is so good-looking right now?
It must be because I am full and warm and have lustful thoughts. People in ancient times would not deceive me.
"I'll go back by myself." Zhang Qingjiu frowned again.
Chu Lan seemed to sigh softly, "Don't be angry. If you go back like this after walking for a long time, won't you worry your mother? If you want to go out in the future, will it be so easy?"
"I..." Zhang Qingjiu took a breath.
She clearly knew that Chu Lan was trying to excuse herself, but she couldn't refute a single word of what he said.
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Qingjiu was finally defeated by Chu Lan's "obscene power", "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is thoughtful and thoughtful, which is beyond the reach of the humble ministers. Thank you very much for Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince's kindness."
Hearing what she said, Chu Lan was silent for a while. Just when Zhang Qingjiu thought he wouldn't say anything, a low laugh suddenly came from his ears.
Zhang Qingjiu's heart moved, and he immediately turned his head to look, only to see smiling eyes.
When their eyes met, Chu Lan raised his eyebrows and said, "If you really think so, that would be fine."
Zhang Qingjiu: "..."
Sooner or later, I will have to hold you tight!
As Chu Lan expected, as soon as Zhang Qingjiu returned to the house and entered the courtyard, someone came from Luoxia Garden and asked her to go there.
Zhang Qingjiu sighed and prepared to change his body and go to see Chu Feng.
At the entrance of the courtyard, Murong Chunlai stared at the slender back with half-squinted eyes, his eyes deep and complicated.
Zhang Qingjiu changed into a sky-blue dress and asked Zidie to comb her hair into a simple bun before getting ready to go out.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the door, Murong Chunlai's faint voice came over, "Master Xiao Zhang is really becoming more and more capable. In the past, he still had to be sneaky and still be able to go out day and night and stay up at night. Now the reasons are all fair and square."
Zhang Qingjiu paused, took a deep look at Murong Chunlai, and smiled, "Being aboveboard is not necessarily better than being sneaky, what do you think?"
Murong Chunlai's breath was suffocated, and he was shocked. The smile on his lips froze.
Finally, Murong Chunlai touched his nose and sighed, "No matter what, as long as Mr. Zhang finds it convenient, it's fine. I'm just worried about Mr. Zhang's safety and has no other meaning."
"Both each other." Zhang Qingjiu raised the corner of his mouth, patted Murong Chunlai on the shoulder, turned around and left.
Chu Lan couldn't handle the demo, couldn't Murong Chunlai also handle it?
In Luoxia Garden, as soon as Chu Feng saw Zhang Qingjiu entering the courtyard, he couldn't help but immediately stood up and went out, with an obvious look of worry on his face.
If she hadn't been worried that her excessive movements would affect her official duties, she wouldn't have been able to sit still. She would have gone to the door to pick them up as soon as the servant came to report.
"Mother." Zhang Qingjiu smiled slightly, stepped forward and took Chu Feng's hand, "I'm sorry for making you worry."
Chu Feng was worried. She finally saw her daughter. Even though she felt a little bit resentful in her heart, when she heard Zhang Qingjiu's obedient words, she couldn't bear to scold her. He immediately tapped her forehead and said, "Look at you.
Now that I have become an official, I have just started to lose my home."
"How could it be? I just wanted to worry more about His Majesty so that others would not underestimate the daughter of our Wei family." She was talking about the Wei family, not the Zhang family. The meaning behind it was naturally self-evident.
Chu Feng looked startled, with tears flashing in his eyes. He took a deep breath, feeling unspeakably distressed and a little proud. He quickly pulled Zhang Qingjiu and walked inside, "Although the prince sent someone to reply and said that he would take good care of you."
, I’m afraid you’ve swallowed everything too, I’ve asked someone to prepare a table of your favorite food, come over and have some.”
Zhang Qingjiu's steps suddenly stopped and the corner of his mouth twitched, "Ah, this..."
Chu Feng noticed her movement, turned his head halfway, and said softly from behind: "What's wrong?"
"No." Zhang Qingjiu took a deep breath and showed a bright smile, "Thank you, mother."
How could she have the nerve to tell Chu Feng that not only had she eaten well at Chu Lan's place, but she was also very full? How could she have the nerve to refuse Chu Feng's love?
But this "sorry" almost turned into "sorry" when she followed her into the back room and saw that the table on the table was no less empty than the one prepared by Chu Lan.
Chu Feng didn't want to check herself. She looked at Zhang Qingjiu with a kind look. While putting things into the bowl for her, she persuaded her, "Eat more."
Zhang Qingjiu Alexander twitched the corner of his mouth: "Okay..."
In the study room of the Prince's Mansion, Mu Qing bowed respectfully to Chu Lan, "Xie Zian has been arrested and brought to justice. He has been imprisoned in Dali Temple and is at your mercy."
"Hold it first, let him stay for a few days, and see the reactions from all parties." Chu Lan narrowed his eyes, put down the book in his hand, stood up and walked to the piano case, "Did this matter alarm Mr. Xiao Zhang?
"
"No." Mu Qing shook his head, "First of all, Mr. Xiao Zhang has been staying in the Prince's Mansion and has never left. Secondly, Xie Zian's good friend will not know where he went for a while."
Mu Qing thought to herself, how could this matter not be related to Zhang Qingjiu for the time being? Even if she found out later, it would be at least three days later.
The disappearance of Xie Zian is bound to cause panic among Zhen Guogong and others. By then, they will only need to fish in troubled waters to find out the truth of the matter.
Thinking of those rumors and some dirty deals, a hint of cruelty flashed in Mu Qing's eyes.
"Okay." Seeing Mu Qing's confidence, Chu Lan nodded gently, "This matter must not be taken lightly."
"Yes, I understand." Mu Qing nodded, watching Chu Lan start playing the piano, and then continued with considerable foresight.
But at this moment, at the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, a petite figure wearing a black gauze hat was pacing back and forth eagerly, holding a note in his hand, his eyes full of hesitation.
After staying for about half an hour, the girl gritted her teeth and rushed forward, "I want to see Zhang..."
"Thank you." At this moment, a clear voice sounded from behind the girl.
The girl was startled. She turned around and glanced back. There was a flash of disbelief in her eyes. She rushed forward suddenly and seemed to have thought of something. She had to lower her voice and said: "Zhang Xiaoxian! Something big happened to my family."
Zhang Qingjiu took a deep breath, suppressed the burp that was stuck in his throat, and nodded, "I understand, let's talk later."
