Ah Xiu wanted to explain, but whenever she said something bad about Song Nanzhi, Xie Anlan would start to blame her. Ah Xiu didn't dare to say it out loud and could only find an opportunity to remind the princess indirectly in the future.

The master and servant returned to their residence together.

Lixia, who was hiding in the dark, also left quickly.

When Ye Tao returned to Liu Yueru's side, she had already put away those things that were rarely used.

Liu Yueru saw Lixia coming back from outside and they walked aside.

Lixia then lowered her voice and told her what had just happened between Song Nanzhi and Xie Anlan.

Liu Yueru glanced at the swaying grass not far away, her eyes half-closed.

Thinking about the palace banquet that would be held soon, Xie Anlan actually wanted to use despicable means to ruin his own reputation in order to help Song Nanzhi regain a place in Kyoto.

Think about this.

There was a hint of calculation in Liu Yueru's eyes.

During the palace banquet in the previous life, the Zhennan Marquis Mansion was doing smoothly, and he and Song Nanzhi were still treating each other with respect. Song Nanzhi also had a good reputation outside due to his maintenance in the previous life.

Very different from this life.

I don’t know if Song Nanzhi will have the opportunity to attend this palace banquet this time.

If Xie Anlan came to frame her again, she would help this couple!

What surprised Liu Yueru was that Song Nanzhi did not come to cause trouble for her when she was in the hunting ground, which made Liu Yueru feel relieved.

When the master and servant were preparing to return to the tent.

Then he saw Xie Jingrui holding Xie Wenhua and walking towards him.

Liu Yueru thought of what Xie Jingrui had said to her in the forest, and she somewhat unnaturally turned her gaze away from Xie Jingrui.

After Xie Wenhua approached, he let go of Xie Jingrui's hand and rushed towards Liu Yueru at a rapid pace.

Just as he was about to throw himself into Liu Yueru's arms, Xie Wenhua clearly felt that the gaze behind him was even colder.

Xie Wenhua then remembered the agreement with Xie Jingrui. He hurriedly stopped and stood steadily in front of Liu Yueru.

"Aunt, we are here to bring some medicine to Mother Yan." Xie Wenhua said as he looked into the tent to check for Liu Mubai.

At this moment, Liu Mubai was curled up beside Yan's mother, holding a brush and starting to paint on Yan's mother's bandaged wound.

Xie Wenhua's eyes lit up, and after hurriedly bowing to Liu Yueru, he ran inside.

Leaving Xie Jingrui and Liu Yueru outside.

Lixia also tactfully stepped aside.

The two stood opposite each other, speechless.

It was Xie Jingrui who spoke first and asked, "Is the injury on Mother Yan's foot better?"

"Your Highness, thank you for your hard work. I've applied the medicine and the bleeding has stopped." Liu Yueru looked away, not daring to meet Xie Jingrui's gaze, and answered in a gentle voice.

When Xie Jingrui saw her like this, he suddenly felt inexplicably unhappy.

He raised his hand, and the secret guard came out carrying a few cleaned rabbits.

Liu Yueru took a look at the skinned and bloody hare and her expression changed slightly.

It wasn't that she felt sorry for the rabbits, but she had never killed any living things, and she felt uncomfortable seeing such blood.

Xie Wenhua was inside with Liu Mubai, painting on Yan's mother's injured foot.

Seeing this scene, Xie Wenhua couldn't help but hold his forehead and ran out.

He took the hare from Xie Jingrui's hand and handed it back to the secret guard, saying, "Make a fire and roast the meat."

Watching the secret guards busying around in the open space in front of their tent.

Liu Yueru retracted her gaze and asked, "Are you not leaving tonight?"

Xie Jingrui's voice became a little gentler: "The prince is still in a coma. If we want to go back, we have to wait until tomorrow morning. Let's eat something to fill our stomach first."

The grass not far away suddenly swayed slightly again.

Xie Jingrui subconsciously protected Liu Yueru behind him.

Liu Yueru's eyes fell on Xie Jingrui's broad shoulders, and her vision was also blocked at this time.

Listening to the rustling sounds in the grass, Liu Yueru tilted her head curiously and looked towards the grass.

Xie Jingrui took a bow and arrow from the secret guard and aimed in the direction of the swaying grass.

Suddenly, a small orange figure appeared in everyone's sight.

Xie Jingrui pulled the bow to its full length, and just as he was about to shoot, Liu Yueru reached out and grabbed Xie Jingrui's sleeve.

He whispered, "My Lord, don't hit me."

at the same time.

An orange tiger cub that looked barely a month old poked its furry little paw out from the grass.

However, the claw missed the target and rolled out from the grass slope to Liu Yueru and the others.

The little tiger cub shook his head dizzily and rubbed his face with his little paws.

Then he raised his little face in an adorable way and began to look around the unfamiliar environment. When his round black eyes saw Liu Yueru and the others

The little tiger cub was stunned at first, then he thought of something, and staggered to his feet from the ground with a vigilant look on his face, pointed his teeth at Xie Jingrui, and put on a fierce look.

When Xie Jingrui turned around, he saw Liu Yueru staring at the little tiger cub, with love written all over her face.

He returned the bow and arrow to the secret guard and was about to approach the little tiger cub.

The little tiger cub made a faint cry, like a kitten, warning Xie Jingrui not to come near.

Seeing this, Liu Yueru pulled Xie Jingrui back and said softly, "My lord, let me do it."

Xie Jingrui fixed his gaze on the tender, white fingertips of Liu Yueru that were grasping his sleeve, his eyes slightly warm.

Liu Yueru took small steps and slowly approached the little tiger cub.

When the little tiger cub saw Liu Yueru staring at her with her round black eyes, she stopped baring her teeth and sat down on the ground, allowing Liu Yueru to approach her.

It stretched out its pink little tongue and licked its little paws.

Liu Yueru held back her laughter, slowly squatted beside the little tiger cub, raised her hand and gently touched the top of its head.

The little tiger cub suddenly stood up, shook off the dust on its body, and then moved back and forth in Liu Yueru's palm, rubbing its little head against Liu Yueru's palm.

The itchy feeling made Liu Yueru find it even funnier. She picked up the little girl from the ground, held her in her arms, and touched her head.

Not long after.

The little tiger cub found a comfortable position in Liu Yueru's arms, and then fell asleep in her arms, with its paws still holding Liu Yueru's sleeves.

Looking at the little orange ball, Liu Yueru's heart almost melted at this moment.

Thinking that this might be the tigress that was lured out of the forest, Liu Yueru looked at the little tiger cub again. If they didn't take care of it, she was afraid that it would die in the forest.

"Can tigers be raised in Kyoto?" Liu Yueru looked at Xie Jingrui a little embarrassedly and asked.

Xie Jingrui thought about it and said truthfully: "Just leave it to me."

Liu Yueru naturally knew that there were many wolves raised on the back hill of the palace, so Xie Jingrui could raise a tiger as long as he wanted.

She lowered her eyes to look at the little tiger cub, and then said, "The tiger mother died because of me. I want to bring this little tiger back to the mansion to raise it for a while."
