After the Qianlong Banquet, another five days had passed, and it was also five days closer to the wedding of Chen Lu and Wa Qian.
Sitting in the courtyard, Chen Lu was still thinking about how to improve Wa Qian's trust.
But there haven't been any incidents recently, and every day passes like this. How can I increase my favorability?
Now, on the other side of the Manguo Palace, preparations for the details of the wedding have begun.
Originally, Chen Lu thought that there would be a lot of obstacles in the Barbarian court.
In the end, I didn't expect that the progress would be much smoother than mine.
Chen Lu still can't figure it out. How did those guys accept him as the prince-consort of the Qianguo?
"Mr. Chen."
Just when Chen Lu was melancholy in the courtyard, a maid walked into the courtyard.
"What's wrong with Miss Plum Blossom?"
Chen Lu has always suspected that this girl's identity is not simple, and he cannot recognize her realm at all.
If you want to run away, this girl will definitely be the first to catch you!
"Mr. Chen, I have a visitor who wants to see Mr. Chen." Mei Hua bowed and was very respectful.
"guest?"
"Yes, he said he is your friend." Mei Hua nodded.
"." Chen Lu suspected that he heard wrongly.
In the barbarian country, I have a friend with a hammer, who will come to visit me.
"Who is this person?"
"Jixia Academy - Liu Pin."
"My benefactor"
After half a stick of incense, when the plum blossoms led Liu Pin and his party in, Liu Pin saw Chen Lu, rushed over and gave Chen Lu a bear hug.
In addition to Liu Pin, a woman and an old man also came.
I do recognize this woman. I saw her in Emperor Qian's country at that time. She seems to be called Zhu Mengyue.
At that time, Chen Lu suspected that Zhu Mengyue was a woman disguising herself as a man. Unexpectedly, Zhu Mengyue was actually a woman disguising herself as a man.
Zhu Mengyue's true identity as a woman was announced by Jixia Academy a year ago.
Chen Lu heard the news at that time that Jixia Academy had officially accepted Zhu Mengyue as a disciple.
This was the first time that Jixia Academy accepted a woman as a formal disciple, and it caused quite a stir at the time.
Now that Zhu Mengyue is showing herself as a daughter, she no longer needs to be secretive and disguise herself as a woman.
Although the world has a lot of criticism about this lady, no one dares to deny her talent.
"Meng Yue has met Mr. Chen." Zhu Mengyue bowed to Chen Lu with a bookish air.
"Jixia Academy offers wine to Long Wen, and I have met Mr. Chen." The old man also stepped forward and saluted Chen Lu.
Chen Lu let go of Liu Pin and bowed in return: "I've met you two, please sit down."
Chen Lu made a cup of tea for several people and asked doubtfully, "I wonder how many of you have come to the barbarian country?"
"My benefactor, we are here to save you!" Liu Pin's eyes were shining.
"Save me?" Chen Lu could have thought that the Qian Congress would come to save him, but he never expected that Jixia Academy would also come to save him.
"Yes." Zhu Mengyue nodded, "Master Chen is a distinguished guest of our Jixia Academy. Now he is captured by the barbarians. How can our Jixia Academy sit idly by and ignore it? Not to mention the poems of Master Chen. Talent is rare in the world. If Mr. Chen falls like this, it will definitely be a great loss to the world!"
The old Confucian man named Long Wen also smiled: "It's just that according to our understanding, the current situation is probably a little complicated."
"." After Long Wen finished speaking, Liu Pin and Zhu Mengyue also lowered their heads.
Chen Lu knew what they were trying to do.
If the barbarian country wants to execute itself, it is easier for the other party to take action. Jixia Academy still has great prestige in the world. The other party will basically give face to the people Jixia Academy wants to protect.
But the problem is that the barbarian country does not want to execute itself.
On the contrary, the barbarian ministers gave themselves the most precious jewel in their eyes.
And this is very troublesome.
Because of this, Jixia Academy lost its excuse to take Chen Lu back.
At this time, the Barbarian Kingdom stood on the commanding heights: "What? I want Chen Lu to be the prince-in-law of my Barbarian Kingdom, isn't it alright? So will your Jixia Academy have to interfere? Isn't that too disrespectful?
Does it make sense?"
To be honest, Jixia Academy really has nothing to do, because Jixia Academy can only ensure that Chen Lu lives well.
And now, Chen Lu is not only living a good life, but is about to have a wife, what do you say?
"My benefactor, don't worry, we will find a way to rescue you!"
Liu Pin knew that the current situation was a bit difficult, but he still did not give up.
Chen Lu shook his head: "It's useless. I'm just a guest of Jixia Academy, and the other party didn't hurt me. You have no reason to take me out. Besides, I'm actually living quite well here."
As he spoke, Chen Lu put his hands behind his back, raised his head, and looked up at the starry sky at a 45-degree angle:
"Actually, I've accepted my fate. Let's just leave it like this. There's actually nothing wrong with being here.
I don’t have to worry about food and drink, even the food and drink are the best, my wife is beautiful, I don’t have to worry about the resources for cultivation, I am very satisfied.”
Everyone: "."
Seeing Chen Lu's appearance, they didn't know whether Chen Lu was telling the truth or a lie.
And while Chen Lu was saying something and communicating with Liu Pin and the others, not far away in the courtyard, there was a snail looking at everything in front of him.
At the same time, in the palace of the Man Kingdom and the princess's mansion.
Wa Chi, who was handling government affairs, was touching a snail.
Everything that the snail watching Chen Lu in the courtyard saw was transmitted to Wa Zhi's mind exactly.
Indeed, there are only eleven maids in the princess mansion.
But, there are quite a few eyes watching Chen Lu.
It's not just this humble snail.
Even a fish in the pond is Wa Qian's eyeliner.
So Chen Lu didn't think about running away, which was definitely a smart move.
"Is this really an overthinking thing, or is it just being staged for me?"
Wa Zhi touched her chin, thinking about the meaning of what Chen Lu just said.
Wa Zhi felt that Chen Lu should not have succumbed to her so quickly.
But Chen Lu didn't know that he could use these little animals to keep his eye on them, so who would he show to?
"Let's just believe you are telling the truth."
Wa Zhi smiled brightly.
Reward him well tonight. This time, reward him for licking the drink off his lap. He should be very happy.
After thinking about it, Wa Zhi could not wait to get to night immediately.
"Your Highness the Princess."
A maid walked into the study and bowed.
"What's the matter?" Waqiang calmed down.
"His Majesty calls you to receive a distinguished guest."
