Chapter 262

Bizarre

Throughout the night, Xie Xingyun was deeply immersed in bizarre dreams.

Before I knew it, the spices in the incense burner had burned out.

As dawn approached, the man's unsteady breathing gradually became even, but his hands on both sides were clenched tightly, as if he had grasped something.

The white fish slept for a long time during the day, so it was difficult to sleep at night. However, after lying down for a long time, it felt inexplicably tired and fell into a drowsy sleep all night.

When I woke up the next day, Bai Xianyu looked very energetic, and the dark circles under his eyes from staying up late had disappeared.

Luzhu said with emotion and a smile: "My lady's skin is really good. There was still a circle of dark circles under my eyes yesterday, but they are gone now that I have had enough sleep."

Bai Xianyu felt better after getting enough sleep, "It's not bad."

"If I had skin like yours, Miss, I would wake up laughing even in my dreams. Hey, it's another day to envy the young Marquis. Miss is so beautiful, it really gives him an advantage."

Bai Xianyu's smile froze for a moment, and the next moment his tone was unclear: "Of course we can't take advantage of him so easily."

Lu Zhu was curious, "What do you want to do, young lady?"

"You will know later."

Luzhu didn't ask any more questions. She thought of another news and lowered her tone, "Miss, did the young marquis tell you that King Nanzhao is coming to Kyoto?"

"King Nanzhao?"

"That's exactly what I heard from Xiao Zheng when I was chatting with him."

"What is he doing in Kyoto?"

"King Nanzhao came to see you because the young prince has found a wife."

Bai Xianyu searched for events related to King Nanzhao in his memory, but unfortunately he only remembered a few fragments.

In her memory, it seemed that King Nanzhao had never been to Kyoto.

Like Ji Shuang's grandfather, King Nanzhao was also the lord of the fiefdom and could not leave easily, especially since he had made arrangements and sent the news so early.

The forces in Nanzhao are complex.

However, under the iron-blooded hand of King Nanzhao, everything remained calm for many years.

"He hasn't told me yet."

"I must have forgotten that," Luzhu thought for a while and said: "I heard that this Nanzhao King is a nine-foot-tall man, as tall as a bear, and his temper is not much better, but Xiao Zheng

It is said that in the early years when King Nanzhao was choosing marriage partners for his young prince, he always chose gentle ones. It will be better if the young lady pays more attention to them."

Bai Xianyu stood up and walked around twice, stretched, and said with a smile: "What's the point of pretending? If he doesn't like it, how can he cancel the marriage?"

If you retreat, it will suit her needs and you don't have to wait for her to take action on her own.

Luzhu was sometimes too perceptive. Just like now, she clearly understood that what Xianyu said was normal, but she could hear that he was a bit careless.

It seems like he doesn't care much about the marriage.

But when it came time to get engaged, the lady was clearly not like this.

She hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

It seems that something was wrong with the young lady when she walked out of Fu Yuanpan's house that day.

Could it be that she was so worried that the young lady was afraid of causing trouble to the young marquis, so she was thinking of breaking off the engagement?

In an instant, all the plots of the novel that she and Bai Xianyu had read came to mind, and Luzhu stared at her nervously.

They seemed to be incompatible with each other, but the two grew up together and had an unparalleled tacit understanding. Bai Xianyu understood what she meant immediately.

She said calmly: "I don't want to get married."

Part of Lu Zhu's guess was confirmed. She hurriedly took Bai Xianyu's hand, "Miss, is your heart disease more serious? I will tell the second young master now. The second young master has great powers and knows many people. He will definitely be able to do it."

I will cure your heart disease, Miss."

Bai Xianyu explained briefly, "It's not a matter of heart disease. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Luzhu bit her lip and said, "Yeah."

"By the way, later you ask Bai Li to find out where this Aunt Yu is from, and the relevant people in the palace will go find Xu Concubine. She is one of our own."

"Okay, I'll be there soon, slave."

Aunt Yu came directly to Bai Xianyu's yard this time. Behind her was a maid dressed as a maid, holding a ruler in her hand.

Bai Xianyu brought a soft couch as usual, and Lvzhu sent someone to bring the freshly picked fruits, washed them one by one and put them on the plate. A dazzling array of snacks, tea, and iced snacks to relieve the heat were placed all over the table.

The surrounding bead curtains are lifted, and the gentle morning sunlight comes in, like a hot spring flowing on the skin.

There are large and small hot springs all over the eldest princess's mansion, and the temperature is generally higher. They have been placed as far away from each other as possible, and with the addition of ice cubes, they have a comfortable temperature.

Bai Xianyu looked at the maid behind Granny Yu, paused for a moment, and then moved away.

Aunt Yu looked like she hadn't slept well, and her eyelids were very haggard, but her tone was excited, "Girl, as we agreed yesterday, I will test you today, and you have to answer. If you can't answer, I will

I'm going to offend the girl."

Bai Xianyu raised his lips and smiled, "Okay."

Grandma Yu didn't want to waste any time. She immediately took the book and started asking questions:

"When worshiping the late emperor, which door should a girl go in?"

"The one at the end."

"...How many everlasting lanterns are there in total?"

Bai Xianyu changed his position, lying sideways, "Six hundred and seventy-two."

"Where does the ritual of kneeling and worshiping begin? How do you propose a toast when you look back after a few steps?"

"..."

Aunt Yu had studied the details very carefully. If she had a general process, she could still go through the arrangement of the palace and get a clear picture, but these obviously need to be memorized by rote.

She was originally full of confidence and wanted to get back to yesterday's situation, but now she was a little frustrated.

"Did you cheat?"

Bai Xianyu raised his eyelids slightly and asked in confusion: "Cheating?"

Grandma Yu looked at Luzhu beside her and the several maids serving around her, and said suspiciously: "You must have cheated, otherwise you fell asleep yesterday, how would you know what I said?"

Bai Xianyu said lightly, "Is it possible to cheat at this level? If Aunt Yu is suspicious, I will send them away and you can take the test again."

As he said this, Bai Xianyu glanced at Luzhu, who nodded and ordered a few maids to wait outside.

She stood outside the pavilion and saw that Nanny Yu had almost torn through the books, but she still couldn't catch the slightest fault of the young lady.

Aunt Yu had to stop, her eyes were sad, "It turns out that the young lady is so smart, it's amazing."

Bai Xianyu smiled immodestly, "Yeah."

Aunt Yu almost choked. She couldn't wait to start today's content, "The quiz is over, let's practice our manners now. The manners are the most important part. With the manners, any movement will be beautiful. Like a girl, you can lie on the bed all day long."

Go on, you’re not afraid of losing your shape?”

Bai Xianyu yawned, "I'm not afraid."

Aunt Yu looked ugly, "Young lady, are you going to fight me?"

"Strange, I just told the truth, why is Grandma Yu angry?"
