Chapter 1052: What are you afraid of?

The little **** was afraid that the third princess would come back again, so he ignored the embarrassment and said quickly, "The emperor originally sent the steward to invite Prince Lu into the palace, but as soon as the steward arrived at the Lu family, he saw Prince Lu being kicked in the crotch by a war horse.

“The deputy doctor Zheng and the imperial doctors went to several places, and they all said that the injury was serious and that he needed to recover for two months.

“The emperor ordered that the princess will not be allowed to leave the palace recently, so the steward sent the villain to come quickly to invite you and the princess back to the palace.”

Jiayin didn't react for a long time, and when he woke up, his face turned red.

This... Lu Zong is not useless, is he?

Otherwise, the emperor cannot be so anxious to ask the third princess to go back. I am afraid that he is worried that the third princess will hear the news and run to the Lu family regardless, which would be embarrassing!

To put it more seriously, if Lu Zong cannot recover, the emperor will definitely not be able to marry his daughter to a eunuch...

"Ahem," Jiayin coughed twice and told the young eunuch, "Go and have a rest first and eat a golden fruit to quench your thirst. We will return to the palace immediately after picking the melons."

"Thank you, Princess!" The little **** breathed a long sigh of relief and was extremely grateful. "Fortunately, the Princess is here, otherwise I really don't know how to persuade the princess to come back."

Jiayin smiled bitterly, considering the third princess' deep love for Lu Zong, she could only bite the bullet and give it a try.

I hope nothing will happen again on the way back to the palace.

However, I’m really afraid of what will happen!

They picked a dozen jade melons and two baskets of golden fruits. The third princess was so satisfied that she didn't bother to stay a little longer.

Jiayin hurriedly gave the old village chief a few words and then got on the carriage.

As he was entering the city, a carriage broke down at the city gate.

For a time, those who were in could not get in, and those who were out could not get out. Everyone was forced to gather together, and naturally they had to gossip a bit to pass the boring time.

“Hey, have you heard? Something big happened!”

"What happened? The Northern Expedition failed?"

“Bah! Crow’s mouth, of course not!”

“What is that that surprises you so much?”

“It’s our future Prince Consort Lu. I heard he was injured while riding a horse.”

"What?!" Before the two gossips could finish speaking, the third princess who happened to be sitting in the carriage next door heard clearly. She became anxious at that time and raised her hand to push open the window.

Fortunately, in order to go to the melon field to pick melons today, and not wanting to disturb too many villagers, Jiayin suggested taking an ordinary two-horse carriage and did not use the princess's carriage.

Otherwise, the people gossiping next to them might know right away that they were talking right and wrong in front of their fiancées.

Jiayin pulled the third princess back and frowned slightly.

Logically speaking, since Lu Zong suffered such an embarrassing injury, he should keep it secret and let those who know about it keep it a secret.

How come it is now known to everyone?

The two gossips next to him were not affected in the slightest and continued to talk lively.

"Is Prince Lu seriously injured? His arms and legs were broken, right?"

“I don’t know, I just heard that it is very serious and it will take two to three months. The person who helped treat the injury was the palace doctor, and no one else knows the details.”

“Then it must be a fracture. It will hurt the muscles and bones for a hundred days.”

“Maybe, but it’s quite unlucky. The Lu family is a family of military generals, and Prince Lu actually fell off his horse. It’s really embarrassing.”

"That's right, but he has been studying since he was a child, and he has been taking scientific examinations all the way, so he can be forgiven for his poor kung fu."

The third princess couldn't listen anymore and started making a fuss.

“Good news, I want to see Brother Lu! Let’s go to Lu’s house!”

Jiayin thought hard and tried to persuade, "I'm afraid I can't go for the time being. I don't know how injured Prince Lu is. If you go over suddenly, the Lu family will be busy receiving you, which will delay Prince Lu's recovery.

"Secondly, the emperor is looking for you to come back to the palace. I'm afraid he has something to say. If it is a big matter, it would be bad to delay for this." The third princess was a little shaken, Shuiling took the opportunity to help persuade, "Didn't these people say that in the palace? Has the imperial physician examined Prince Lu? If the princess is concerned, she can go back and ask the imperial physician whether Prince Lu is seriously injured!"

These words reminded the third princess, and she quickly urged the coachman.

Unable to do anything, the driver turned his horse around and ran for an extra quarter of an hour until he reached another city gate and successfully entered the city.

The third princess returned to the palace. She didn't even have time to change her clothes, so she hurriedly ran to the imperial study.

The good news didn't stop her anymore, she slowly returned to Zhilan Palace, changed her clothes, and just drank a cup of herbal tea, the third princess came back with a red face and complicated eyes.

As soon as she saw the good news of the chairs swinging leisurely under the eaves of the corridor, she ran over with her skirt in hand and complained, "Good news, did you already know about it? Why didn't you stop me?"

Jiayin rolled her eyes and responded unceremoniously, "If I hadn't stopped you, you would have gone to Lu's house to pick off someone's pants by now!"

“Oh, what are you talking about!” The third princess stomped her feet in embarrassment and quickly covered Jiayin’s mouth.

The two laughed and laughed for a while. The third princess sat down next to Jiayin, hugged her arm and sighed softly.

“Jiayin, do you think Brother Lu and I are not destined to be together? My father also said that we should get married soon, but Brother Lu was injured again…”

Jiayin’s eyes flickered, which was why she was suspicious.

Lu Zong was injured at the very right time, and he was injured at such a crucial point.

The emperor may let his daughter marry a husband who is lame and has a broken hand, but he will not let her marry a eunuch...

On normal days, she would have thought it was an accident.

After all, no man would joke about what he has done. If he misses, there is no place to regret it!

But having known Lu Zong’s thoughts before, she was not sure again…

"Fate is so mysterious, no one can tell for sure." Jiayin also sighed and asked tentatively, "If your marriage to Brother Lu fails, will you be sad? You don't eat or drink, you live or die?"

“Of course not, I am a princess, how can I have to live or die?” The third princess stared, obviously this assumption insulted her pride.

But then, she drooped her head again, "But I won't get married, and there is no better person in the world than Brother Lu."

Jiayin's heart shrank, and she quickly changed her subject, "No kidding, let's make a fruit plate and send it to Uncle Huang to relieve the heat. I'll do the styling, and you dig the fruit balls."

"Okay," the third princess cheered up and replied, "I just saw that my father has lost weight again. I wonder if it's because of the bitter summer? When cooking in the evening, let's make two more of his favorite dishes. Bar."

"Okay, uncle Huang likes salty and fresh tastes. Let's cook a pot of red dates and millet porridge to match it, which will be more nourishing to the stomach." Jiayin agreed with a smile, easily diverting the princess's attention.

Soon, the emperor received a strange and funny fruit plate. The jasper melon skin was carved into the shape of a hedgehog. There was a slit on the back of the hedgehog. It was full of large pearl-like melon balls, grapes, strawberries, etc., with bright colors. Sweet and fresh.

It is really pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at it, and it tastes refreshing and delicious.

 Manager Yi and Eunuch Feng were both present. The two of them worked together and almost boasted about the fruit plate. The emperor was so happy that he moved a lot of good things to Zhilan Palace with a wave of his hand.

Unfortunately, the emperor only ate a few melon **** before he vomited.

General Manager Yi immediately kicked out the rest of the people in the room and personally served the emperor to rinse his mouth.

The emperor was silent for a while, then called out to the man in gray and sent the fruit plate to Xilong Pavilion.

Then he took out all the lists.

The world was supposed to be peaceful for a few days, but because the princess was prevented from getting married, it continued to cause a **** storm...
