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

King Jin looked at the fruit handed to him.

Shen Xiangjun looked at him.

Prince Jin was sitting on a tree stump, his black hair hanging down, his nose straight and his lips slightly moist.

He was dressed in a rich purple brocade robe, which could not conceal his elegance in this green mountain area.

This was the closest she had ever been to him. Looking at him so close before her, Shen Xiangjun felt her heart pounding very hard.

She even suspected that Prince Jin could hear her heartbeat.

Shen Xiangjun's face turned red.

Under her expectant gaze, Prince Jin spoke.

"You just said this fruit is three parts sour and seven parts sweet?"

Shen Xiangjun nodded quickly, "Yes. Your Majesty, please try it."

King Jin snorted and waved his hand, "Take it away. I only like to eat food that is one part sour and nine parts sweet. This is not suitable for you."

Lord Chen, who was walking over with a banana leaf fanning himself, heard both sentences.

The corners of his mouth twitched and he glanced at the fruit. The fruit looked so innocent.

Shen Xiangjun stood there in a daze, her expression frozen, and her hand holding the fruit was shaking a little.

She couldn't hold it forward or take it back, and she felt so embarrassed that she almost fainted.

"Are there any wild fruits to eat? Miss Shen, can you let me try some? I'm very thirsty." Lord Chen walked quickly forward and said to Shen Xiangjun in surprise.

Shen Xiangjun immediately handed the fruit to him, "Your Majesty is afraid of sour food, so Lord Chen can eat it."

Although she felt very embarrassed, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If Lord Chen hadn't given her a way out, she wouldn't have known what to do.

"Thank you, Miss Shen." Lord Chen thanked her, took the fruit and took a bite. It was still crispy.

"Your Highness, I'll go look over there." Shen Xiangjun hurriedly saluted Prince Jin, turned around and walked away.

Although she didn't know whether Prince Jin would look at her from behind, she still maintained her best demeanor, walking with each step like a lotus. When she turned behind some big trees, her shoulders suddenly slumped and her face showed a bit of discomfort.

Shen Xiangjun covered her face with her hands and slowly squatted down.

why?

Why did Prince Jin let Lu Zhaoling fall into the carriage and get engaged to her when they first met, but was so cold to her even though he had known her since childhood?

What exactly is the problem?

Shen Xiangjun is extremely regretful now. If she had known earlier, she would have gone to the streets on the day Prince Jin returned to Beijing!

Even if she couldn't prevent Lu Zhaoling and Prince Jin from meeting, she could find out what tricks Lu Zhaoling used to impress Prince Jin!

Over there, Lord Chen was eating fruit and fanning Prince Jin with a banana leaf.

"Your Majesty, didn't you send someone to invite Miss Lu? Do you think she will come?"

King Jin glanced at him sideways.

"What does it have to do with you whether she comes or not?"

Master Chen bowed his body and fanned himself more attentively, "I just want to ask, if Miss Lu has no objection, can I ask her for help? I heard that Miss Lu was able to find the cousin of the Sun family who had died a few years ago. What if she can really help find Miss Qiu?"

"Isn't Lin Rong here?" Prince Jin said disdainfully, "Go find Lin Rong."

Lord Chen looked pitiful, "Your Majesty..."

"If you call me the king in this tone again, I will twist your head."

"I will go find Lord Lin right away."

Lord Chen ran away quickly.

It was useless to ask the prince for help, so he had better wait for Miss Lu to come.

Over there, Shen Xiangjun's maid Xianglian came over with Xiao Zhao. After Xiao Zhao woke up, Shen Xiangjun brought him to Yingshan again.

If her young lady couldn't be found, she, a maid, wouldn't dare to just wait in the capital.

What's more, Shen Xiangjun felt that with this little trick, he could find the location where the accident happened more accurately.

Xiao Zhao also trusts Shen Xiangjun.

"Miss Shen, are you crying?" Xiao Zhao was moved when she saw Shen Xiangjun's red eyes. "I know you must be very worried about my young lady. When I find her, I will tell her that you are working very hard to find her."

Look, Miss Shen is so worried that she is crying. She really loves her young lady.

"Miss, don't worry too much. Miss Qiu will be fine." Xianglian took out a handkerchief and handed it to Shen Xiangjun.

The young lady used her handkerchief to wipe the fruit for Prince Jin.

Shen Xiangjun took the handkerchief and gently pressed the corners of her eyes, her voice a little fragile.

"I've rested enough. Let's go and look for it again. I just remembered that Miss Qiu likes to use a dagger. We can look for any signs of being cut in those dense mountain grasses..."

Xianglian looked towards the strange tree, hesitated for a moment, and asked Shen Xiangjun in a low voice, "Miss, isn't the King of Jin going to look for Miss Qiu together?"

The young lady originally thought that after arriving at Yingshan, she could stay close to the King of Jin and work together to find Miss Qiu, and as they did so, they came into contact with each other more frequently.

Unexpectedly, Prince Jin sent the palace guards out to look for someone, and he sat on a tree stump, a stone, or lay on the grass from time to time, and then he started talking.

Ever since he discovered the strange tree and stone, he has been staying there and won't leave.

"Prince Jin may be tired." Shen Xiangjun said in a low voice.

"The prince is not having a hard time," Xianglian moved closer to Shen Xiangjun and lowered her voice. "Miss, I heard that the prince is not in good health. Could it be true?"

"Xianglian, shut up."

Shen Xiangjun frowned and scolded.

Xianglian was startled and immediately lowered her head, "I know I was wrong."

"Stop gossiping." Shen Xiangjun didn't allow anyone to say anything bad about Prince Jin.

"Yes. I will never dare to do that again."

It was almost noon when Lu Zhaoling was brought before Prince Jin by Qinglin.

Prince Jin was almost asleep with his eyes closed. As soon as Lu Zhaoling appeared, he opened his eyes as if he sensed something.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Er waving at him happily with one hand, lifting the hem of her skirt with the other hand, and running towards him briskly.

"My Lord, here I come!"

Yeah, the sound is pretty cheerful.

Prince Jin couldn't help but smile.

"Lu Er, you seem quite happy to see me?"

Lu Zhaoling was indeed very happy. When she looked up and saw such a large ball of purple air with golden light and merit, how could she not be happy?

I always feel like something is missing if I don’t see you for a day, and my ten fingers feel itchy if I don’t touch you for a day.

She ran to King Jin.

"happy!"

"Okay, okay, I know you are happy. Run slower or you might fall down." King Jin kindly reminded her when he saw she was running so fast.

Lu Zhaoling: “…”

Qingyin and Qingbao who followed behind: "......"

Your Majesty, it is a blessing for us servants not to have to serve you.

Lu Zhaoling arrived in front of Prince Jin and patted his shoulder. "Hey, Your Majesty, how long have you been sitting here? You are covered in dust. Let me pat you on the shoulder."

Pull, pull.

Before Prince Jin could react, her eyes had already passed him and fell behind him.

"Tree-growing stone? That's it?"

"I said Lu Er..."

"I'll go take a look!" Lu Zhaoling pushed him away.
