The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

After hearing the news, Lu Zhaoyun was so nervous that she broke a porcelain bottle and spilled her rouge and lip balm, becoming extremely flustered.

"Sister, don't be so nervous. It's just meeting a eunuch. When you become the second prince's consort, you will have to meet the emperor and the empress dowager frequently. How nervous will you be then?"

Lu Zhaoyue was helping her choose jewelry.

"What do you know? If the eunuch has a good impression of me this time, he will speak well of me to the emperor when he arrives at the palace. If the emperor has a good impression of me, he may not be too opposed to this marriage."

She just knew that this impression was very important.

Lu Zhaoyun thought about what the Second Prince said when he specially introduced her to Princess Changning, Miss He and others.

"Zhao Yun, the Lu family is not well-off. You should try to observe Chang Ning and the others as much as possible and learn from them the manners and rules of a true noble lady."

The Second Prince had already made plans for her a long time ago, and she must not let him down.

Lu Zhaoyun thought about the usual appearance of Princess Changning and others, took a deep breath, and held his head high.

When she came in front of the eunuch, she behaved gracefully, and her clothes and appearance were correct. She was pretty but not bright, and she did not forget that it was still the period of mourning for the retired emperor.

Lu Ming gritted his teeth and stuffed a purse into the eunuch's pocket when he left. There was a silver note inside.

After sending the person away, the family's shoulders collapsed at the same time and they instantly collapsed in their chairs.

"Zhao Yun performed well just now."

Lu Ming looked relieved. Lu Zhaoyun's expression just now had surprised him a little. It was quite good.

Lu Zhaoyun lowered his head and said, "Fortunately, I didn't bring shame to my father."

She was actually in a bad mood because when she was dressing up and when she met the eunuch's gaze just now, she subconsciously imitated Lu Zhaoling.

She should have learned from Princess Changning, why did she learn from a dead country girl who grew up in the countryside?!

Her father also said that she performed well? This is hard to judge.

"How much did the master give to the father-in-law just now?" Mrs. Lu couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

She saw the painful look on Lu Ming's face after he stuffed the purse into her hand.

"Two hundred taels, a full two hundred taels!"

Lu Ming was really heartbroken.

There have been inexplicable large expenses in the family recently, and he feels like money is flowing out of his hands like water.

"hiss."

Mrs. Lu took a deep breath when she heard this, and she also sobbed with heartache.

"If there is no more income, our family assets will be emptied out."

The one who spent the most money was Lu Zhaoling!

"Father, where is Zhao Ling?" Lu Zhaoyun was also anxious.

"This evil creature is truly an evil creature. I think she is here to ruin our family."

Lu Ming thought of Lu Zhaoling who ran away in a blink of an eye, and he gritted his teeth. He even regretted bringing that dead girl back to Beijing.

Also, why hasn't that person come yet? If he really comes, he now hopes that person will not feel pity for Lu Zhaoling, and simply find a chance to push Lu Zhaoling out to shield him.

"Master, I don't know if that damn girl can find the marriage certificate. If she can't find it, how are you going to explain it to the emperor?"

Mrs. Lu felt somewhat uncomfortable when she thought about how Lu Ming had just brought the eunuch to their bedroom.

Also, the master had kept the iron box hidden from her for so many years. If she had followed him quietly and watched from outside the window just now, she would not have known that there was this secret under the bed.

Is the master afraid that she will steal the lock?

I really thought too much. She will be the emperor's mother-in-law in the future. She must be very loyal to him and this family. Why would she steal her own things?

"She'll find it even if she doesn't want to!"

Lu Ming now has no way out, he dare not tell others that he can't find the marriage certificate.

"What if it's considered a crime of deceiving the emperor? Wouldn't he be beheaded?" Mrs. Lu said, her eyes quietly sweeping across Lu Ming's neck.

Lu Ming noticed her gaze and suddenly felt a chill on his neck.

"Bang!" He slammed the table angrily.

"What's that look in your eyes? We'll find the marriage certificate!"

As long as you find it, it won’t be deceiving the king!

"You two should keep this to yourself. If you dare to say anything nonsense again, I won't let you off!" Lu Ming said angrily, "Let's go, stop being an eyesore here, and go look around!"

They can't rely solely on Lu Zhaoling, they have to keep looking!

When the Lu family took action and dug cracks and dug ditches everywhere to look for the marriage certificate, Lu Zhaoling and his family hurried all the way, and only saw the shadow of Yingshan when it got dark.

There was a thatched hut halfway along the way, where they rested for the night, and continued on their journey at dawn the next day.

As the sky brightened, dark clouds were slowly gathering.

They entered Firefly Mountain.

There is a road, otherwise those people would not have taken this shortcut.

However, this mountain road looks deserted, with tall grass on both sides and lush green trees in the distance.

If the weather was good, the mountain view might be nice, but Qingyin and Qingbao were a little worried at the moment.

"Miss, will it rain?" Qingbao asked.

Lu Zhaoling looked at the sky and shook his head. "It won't rain during the day, but it should rain in the second half of the night."

Qinglin heard her words and couldn't help but be curious, "Miss, can you see so specifically?"

"In the wild, you can observe more carefully. The wind, trees, grass, sky, clouds, birds and insects can all be used as a basis for judging the weather," said Lu Zhaoling.

Qinglin took note of it silently. If it really rained in the second half of the night, he would definitely ask for advice on how to judge it.

"Did you encounter heavy fog after entering Yingshan Mountain?" Lu Zhaoling asked.

"No, there wasn't any danger. It's just that we couldn't find Miss Qiu. We don't have any clues at all."

Qinglin said as they reached a fork in the road and asked Lao Ma to drive the carriage to a relatively flat open space. "Miss, the carriage must stay here. The carriages ahead can't go in."

Lu Zhaoling saw three carriages parked there, and three coachmen were sleeping under a tree nearby.

One carriage belongs to the King of Jin, and the other two...

"Whose carriage is that?"

"Miss Shen is here too. She said she wants to help look for Miss Qiu. Both carriages are hers."

Lu Zhaoling raised an eyebrow, "Shen Xiangjun?"

"Exactly."

Qing Bao whispered, "Miss, could it be that Miss Shen has other intentions than drinking?"

Could it be that he is coming for the prince?

There is not much to be particular about in the wild mountains and wilderness. It is very possible if we can sleep together by a fire at night. Wouldn't that be a chance to get close to the prince?

It's not that Qingbao wants to speculate about Shen Xiangjun with malicious intent, but they all know that Shen Xiangjun has been thinking about the prince for many years.

"Just go and take a look and you'll know." Lu Zhaoling smiled.

In the mountains.

Not far from the strange tree, Shen Xiangjun walked towards King Jin with a wild fruit in his hand.

"Your Highness, try this fruit. It is three parts sour and seven parts sweet. It is very delicious." She handed the fruit to Prince Jin.
