The nosebleed stopped quickly, and leaving the hot spring was no longer sweltering.Lu You tried to sit up again, and then felt Tang Ruilang's palm pressed up again, gently tracing somewhere on his back.

"It's so good that Zhao Yang made it look like this. If you can stay in Tianwu Palace for a few more days and soak in the hot springs a few more times, maybe it will be better."

But Lu You's mood was not on this matter.

"Swiss..."

It was rare for him to take the initiative to ask softly: "You will be an official next year, and you should get married soon, right? Is there any suitable candidate for your family?"

Tang Ruilang was taken aback for a moment: "Well done, why are you asking such a bad thing all of a sudden?"

Lu You opened his mouth to speak, but after thinking about it, he changed his mind: "It's just a casual question, maybe it's something about Zichen Palace, which makes me a little uneasy."

"Over there is over there, here is here, you don't have to worry. I said that I will always be with you, and I will always keep this promise."

At this point, Tang Ruilang paused: "Even if you want to get married, the bride must be you."

"...Are you dizzy too?"

Lu You couldn't help laughing.Before I knew it, my heartbeat and mood had slowly returned to calm.

He maintained the posture of lying on his back by the edge of the spring pool, looking up at the sky.

Once upon a time, the setting sun had completely disappeared, and the sky above the head was already brilliant.

The first night of Tianwu Palace after the tiring journey seemed extraordinarily dark and sweet.

Early the next morning, Lu You woke up at midnight as usual, tossed and turned for a while, and couldn't sleep anymore, so he just put on his clothes and got up.

The small courtyard in the morning is soaked in the fragrance of plants.The marmoset grows in the crack of the wall next to the old osmanthus tree, with blue flowers hanging down.The mirabilis that blooms at night has fallen asleep, but the faint fragrance can still be smelled after approaching.

Lu You walked to the door of the main room and listened carefully, but there was no movement in the room.So he turned around again and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

Pushing open the paulownia-painted wooden door of the small courtyard, Lu You discovered that the surrounding area was filled with thick fog.On both sides of the path we passed yesterday, weeds and flowers were covered with crystal clear dewdrops.The place a little farther away looks ethereal because of the mist, but you can vaguely see a forest of steles, which is somewhat similar to the forest of steles in the Imperial College.

I am used to seeing the majestic and gorgeous Zichen Palace, and the Xianya Lingxiu in front of me is even more interesting.

Lu You walked slowly and watched, and unknowingly walked a hundred or so steps along the path, and soon came to the string of bluestone steps leading to Xiangcaoyu.In the early morning light, there was no one walking around in the medicinal herb field, and the green vines were everywhere, swaying in the cool wind.

Lu You deliberately walked lightly, walked to one of the most lush fields and squatted down, dug a shallow hole in the wet mud with his bare hands, then took out a small oil paper seal from his sleeve, unfolded it, and sprinkled some seeds inside. In the pit.

According to Li Honghe, in a few months, when Wu Gong fell into a bleak winter that day, a long-lost bright color could be seen in the snow-capped medicine field.

After finishing what Master asked, Lu You covered the soil again.He was about to get up, when there was a clear and clear voice of shouting in the back of his head.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Lu You turned her head and saw a girl in pink standing a foot behind him, her bright eyes were full of vigilance.

It was the girl who had a good talk with Tang Ruilang yesterday!

Lu You first warned himself not to think wildly, then turned around and first bowed to the girl in pink.

"My name is Lu You. I work as a servant in Zichen Palace. I followed Chang Qiu Gong and Xiaoshizi to Tianwu Palace yesterday. I don't know if this young lady is—"

The girl in pink didn't respond, but asked with a cold face: "Since you are the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, why didn't you stay by the prince's side to serve you, and came here early in the morning?"

Lu You could not resist this point of questioning: "The girl doesn't know something, but I have been interested in the Tao of Xinglin Jujing since I was a child. Although I am working as an errand in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there is still a little medicine field in my family. I went there last night. I saw this place on the way to bathe in the hot spring, and I was very happy, but it was getting late and I couldn’t see it clearly. So I got up early in the morning and came to see this world-famous treasure.”

Hearing the words "Famous in the world", the girl's face had a hint of complacency.But she did not relax completely, and pointed to the medicinal materials in the field to test Lu You three or four things.Fortunately, Lu You responded fluently, so she slowly softened her expression.

"Since he is a distinguished guest from the east, Jasmine really offended me just now. Because this medicine garden is my master's most treasured treasure, outsiders are never allowed to come in and out. There are very few strange faces in this deep mountain. I hope... Well, I hope Mr. Lu doesn't mind."

It's really awkward to say "Mr. Lu".Lu You understood that she probably hadn't met a few eunuchs in her life, so she nodded to express that it was okay.

"Dare to ask the girl's name?"

"My surname is Liu, and my name is Jasmine." The girl responded to him politely.

Liu Mowei, her surname is Liu?It is the same surname as the Palace Master of Wu Palace today.The surname Liu is not common. Speaking of it, at the reception banquet yesterday, Palace Master Liu seemed to have mentioned that she has an only daughter under her knee...

"Young lady's surname is very special." He tentatively said, "If I remember correctly, the Palace Mistress is also named Liu."

"I am his daughter."

Liu Mowei didn't hesitate, she nodded and admitted.She paused, then stared at Lu You's plain mask again.

Lu You was a little scared by her.He thought to himself that the making of this human skin mask was originally a handicraft of Tianwu Palace, and now this girl must have seen something...

He was a little panicked, but he heard Liu Mowei muttering: "By the way, I seem to have seen you... Brother Rui Lang sent me out last night, and I happened to see you walking towards the hot spring. He wanted to call you, but you Hurry up."

That's why Swiss Franc hurriedly chased after him last night?Lu You calmed down, and seemed to have a subtle satisfaction.

And that Liu Mowei seemed to have other thoughts, she blushed slightly, and asked tentatively: "You and Brother Rui Lang seem to be friends?"

"..."

Faced with this kind of problem, Lu You instinctively wanted to be "modest".But when the words came to his lips, the scene that he secretly saw yesterday suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

"Yes." He immediately changed his words: "I have known Rui Lang for many years, and we are... good friends who talk about everything."

"So it is."

Liu Mowei raised her voice, and then looked up at Lu You who was taller than him with timid eyes.

"I... want to ask you something."

"What is it?" Lu You answered cautiously, "I know very little, so I may not be able to answer it."

Liu Mowei nodded to express that she was not reluctant, and after deliberating for a while, she asked in a low voice: "Brother Rui Lang, he is in Zhaojing City, is there anyone who agrees with him?"
