The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!

Considering that Jiang Zhiyue was still recovering from his injuries, Princess Lan Ning did not stay in Yansiyuan for too long.

When Princess Lan Ning returned to Prince Fu's Mansion, she specifically asked whether Princess Fu had returned.

Before she could get the news, she was caught by Lu Qingxiao.

"Looking around, what are you doing?"

Princess Lan Ning stood up straight with a start. She turned back in surprise and said, "Cousin, why are you in the palace?"

"Something happened."

Lu Qingxiao glanced at her and asked, "What are you doing sneakily?"

"How could I be sneaky?" Princess Lan Ning said confidently, "I'm at home!"

Lu Qingxiao ignored her and was about to walk out.

Princess Lan Ning became curious again and followed Lu Qingxiao like a follower.

"Cousin, what are you doing here?"

Lu Qingxiao glanced at her, paused, and his stern expression softened a little: "Are you back from the Duke's Mansion?"

Princess Lan Ning was shocked: "You sent someone to monitor me?"

"The incense she has been burning recently was given to her by me." Lu Qingxiao said lightly.

Princess Lan Ning immediately lifted her sleeves and sniffed, but smelled nothing.

"My cousin's nose is really better than a dog's."

"Hmm?" Lu Qingxiao frowned.

Princess Lan Ning immediately smiled and said, "I said my cousin is amazing."

Lu Qingxiao paused and asked, "How is she?"

When Princess Lan Ning heard this, her expression immediately turned teasing, "Oh~ So you called me because of A-Chan."

Lu Qingxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and Princess Lan Ning immediately became obedient.

"Achan looks fine. She said she'll be able to go out and walk in a few days."

Lu Qingxiao nodded, "If you have time, go spend more time with her."

Princess Lan Ning's eyes lit up and she was about to speak when she heard Lu Qingxiao say this.

"Forget it, don't disturb her recovery."

Princess Lan Ning was so angry at Lu Qingxiao that she was speechless.

It happened that Prince Fu came out quickly with something like a memorial in his hand.

Princess Lan Ning immediately grabbed her eldest brother and said, "My cousin is bullying me! Brother, you have to take charge of this for me!"

Prince Fu smiled helplessly: "You, don't be naughty. Your cousin is here to do serious business."

Lu Qingxiao took the thing from Prince Fu's hand and glanced at Princess Lan Ning.

Princess Lan Ning actually saw a smug smile in that glance.

She immediately exploded: "Look! He's provoking me!"

Prince Fu quickly grabbed his sister and said to Lu Qingxiao, "Wubing, she is still young, don't bother with her."

Princess Lan Ning turned her head and looked at her elder brother in disbelief: "Why are you still on his side?"

Prince Fu lowered his voice and coaxed her: "Even if we put our bodies together, we can't beat him. Are you sure you want me to make the decision for you?"

Princess Lan Ning pouted and looked at Prince Fu eagerly: "Brother, can't you take a beating from your cousin for me?"

Prince Fu almost laughed out of anger, "What nonsense are you talking about."

Princess Lan Ning ran away angrily.

Prince Fu shook his head lovingly, "She has been forced by her mother to see the young master of Prime Minister Xie's mansion recently, and she is very annoyed."

Lu Qingxiao raised his eyebrows, "Xie Yi?"

"That's right. Today he was ordered to go to Qi and Lu. He might have already left Beijing by now."

Prince Fu said, "Xie Yi is not bad, but Lan Ning doesn't like him."

Lu Qingxiao nodded silently, "Let's go first."

"Okay." Prince Fu smiled and saw Lu Qingxiao off from Prince Fu's mansion.

Lu Qingxiao hid the things, and after leaving Prince Fu's Mansion, he called Chengfeng and rode his horse towards the outside of the city.

When Lu Qingxiao arrived at the city gate tower, he did not see any carriage.

When he asked, he found out that Xie Yi had already set out for about an incense stick of time.

Lu Qingxiao frowned, patted Chengfeng's horse's back, and galloped out of the city.

-

When Xie Yi left Prime Minister Xie's residence, Madam Xie also sent him to the city gate tower.

Mrs. Xie wanted to see her off again, but Xie Yi was afraid that she would be too sad, so he forced her to leave.

The book boy sat next to Xie Yi. He always felt that the young master was unhappy during this period.

It was clearly the young master who went to ask for the decree himself, but even after the decree came down, there was no smile on his face.

Xie Yi sat in the carriage in silence.

He didn't know whether choosing to escape was a good or bad thing.

He lifted the rear curtain of the carriage and looked at the capital city getting farther and farther away, his emotions becoming more complicated.

Seeing this, the book boy asked, "Young Master, don't you want to go?"

Xie Yi lowered the back curtain and shook his head.

The servant boy got a negative answer, and seeing that Xie Yi looked depressed, he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

At this moment, the sound of chasing horses and the movement of guards outside were heard.

Xie Yi lifted the curtain and saw that it was someone he had just met a few days ago.

"Lu Qingxiao?"

Xie Yi exclaimed in surprise.

Lu Qingxiao looked at the guards standing by the carriage and then at Xie Yi: "Can I have a word with you?"

Xie Yi nodded and was about to get off the carriage immediately.

The servant looked at him worriedly: "Young Master..."

Xie Yi smiled gently: "It will be okay, Lu Qingxiao is a good person."

When the servant heard his young master say this, a look of doubt appeared on his face.

Lu Qingxiao, is he a good person...?

The book boy had only heard that this young general, who once dominated the capital, was cruel and brutal. Although he had made great military achievements, he was extremely cold-blooded.

When Xie Yi got off the carriage, the guards stopped him.

Xie Yi glanced at the guard unhappily and said, "I thought my father asked you to protect me, not to make decisions for me."

Seeing that Xie Yi was angry, the guards awkwardly stepped aside.

Lu Qingxiao turned over and got off the horse, then walked two steps outside with Xie Yi.

What a coincidence, this is the place where Xie Yi stopped Lu Qingxiao some time ago.

Only today is a sunny day.

Xie Yi looked at Lu Qingxiao, "I wonder what Commander Lu wants to say?"

"I heard that you were going to Qilu, so I sent you something as a reward."

Lu Qingxiao took out a small and exquisite self-defense item from his sleeve, "It's a modified crossbow. It can be used for self-defense in an emergency."

Xie Yi was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Lu Qingxiao to give him such a thing.

"This, this is too precious. I can't accept it."

Xie Yi thought about it and refused.

Lu Qingxiao didn't say anything more and stuffed it into Xie Yi's hand: "If you run out of sharp weapons inside, you can ask the guards around you."

"They'll find a way to get it for you."

Xie Yi was at a loss, holding the pocket weapon and staring at him in a daze.

"you……"

Lu Qingxiao said: "For self-defense."

"No, no, you leave it to Miss Six."

Xie Yi was in a panic trying to return it to Lu Qingxiao.

Lu Qingxiao stopped his movements with one hand: "No need, she has it."

Xie Yi looked at him in a daze, not understanding why Lu Qingxiao would give him such a precious weapon for self-defense.

"It's better not to use it."

Upon hearing this, Xie Yi solemnly put the thing away.

He said to Lu Qingxiao: "I won't let anyone else know. Things like this should be top secret."

Lu Qingxiao glanced at Xie Yi and said nothing, which was considered as his agreement.

Xie Yi almost couldn't hold back the emotions in his eyes.
