Xi Mengyao raised her head and looked. She saw a man in black clothes, but pushed open the window of the building beside him and jumped down.
There was a light sound, and in just a few moments, that person was already standing firmly in front of her.
Xi Mengyao frowned, she did not know this person.
Unexpectedly, this person grabbed her by the shoulder and pulled her behind him. Then, he looked at the bailiff and said, "You guys must have recognized the wrong person. He's not a thief."
"And who are you!" Seeing this, the guard following behind the bailiff raised his saber and charged forward.
Upon seeing this, the head bailiff ruthlessly knocked him on the head with his scabbard, cursing, "Get the hell out of here!"
Saying that, he looked at the man with a smile: "Mr Lu, why are you here?"
Lu Ming chuckled, he did not reply, and turned to look at Xi Mengyao, laughing as though she had thought of something, and said.
"This little brother is someone from my Prince's Mansion. His clothes … It was the last time when the Prince brought him to Prime Minister's Mansion, and in the end, he was mischievous and accidentally dirtied his clothes. The Prime Minister borrowed the clothes of the servants of the palace, but unexpectedly, he did not hide anything and came out dressed like this. "
"Me!" Hearing that, Xi Mengyao looked at him strangely, wanting to ask who he was.
Unexpectedly, Lu Ming had stepped forward and suppressed her words: "If you don't believe me, then I can accompany you to the Prime Minister's Mansion to ask about it, but after asking …"
That person's words also left a mark.
When the bailiff heard this, he was startled. He quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed twice. "Since mister has said so, then we must admit our mistakes at this time."
The man said as he gnashed his teeth and glared at Xi Mengyao. Then, he turned and left with his men.
When they left, they looked over in anger.
It was just that this Lu Ming was from the Prince Jing Palace, and was not an ordinary person that they could afford to offend.
Now that he claimed to know them, even if they didn't know him, even if they changed the collar of the street to say they did, they couldn't say anything.
Seeing that the few of them had gritted their teeth and left, Xi Mengyao turned around, but still looked at the man in front of him strangely.
He had a refined and refined appearance, and looked like a person that was easy to talk to. It might have been some royal or noble family who had helped her when they saw that they were not on good terms.
Previously, she had wanted to ask, but this person didn't say anything. She probably didn't want to say it.
After some thought, she shook her head.
"Many thanks to young master for saving my life. If young master has the time, why don't we come to the Moon Tower together and drink a little? Naturally, I will be in charge and you can be considered to have repaid my debt."
Lu Ming only shook his head, and looked at Xi Mengyao with a funny expression: "Miss ran out of the house, you shouldn't be too flamboyant, and won't go to a place like the Moon Slaughter Devil Nest, just walk around on the streets for a bit, and when it's enough, you can go back eight."
Hearing that, Xi Mengyao frowned, she turned and looked at the man, and said vigilantly: "Young Noble. I am a man, not a lady from any clan. "
"Miss, although it's hard to describe someone who is dressed like a man, your habits can't be changed."
Hearing that, Xi Mengyao frowned, she looked at Lu Ming carefully, but did not say anything.
"If Miss has any difficulties, why don't I send you off?" Lu Ming said as he also took a step forward.
This person was truly interesting. Even though he had been exposed, he was still able to remain calm. There weren't many women with such courage in the capital city, and he already knew why this person was so different from the others.
"I've already said it before, I'm not a lady from any clan. You have a strange mindset, so I'll be taking my leave!"
Xi Mengyao was a little guilty, she knew that her behavior and habits were hard to change, so she tried her best to cover it up, but she did not expect him to recognize her so easily.
However, looking at this person's appearance, it seemed that he didn't know her and didn't have any ill intentions.
Thinking about it, she thought that it was just someone with sharp eyes, who looked at Lu Ming in displeasure.
It was hard to tell whether he would break it or not!
However, she remembered that he had just saved her life, so she didn't say anything more. She turned around and left, shaking her head as she walked. She lowered her head to look at herself and said, "Strange, where did you go wrong …"
Her tone of voice was extremely rude, but Lu Ming was not angry, and was only looking at him like that, but in his heart, he was very interested.
Seeing that he was already far away, he shook his head helplessly and sneered, but didn't say anything else.
Seeing that it was getting late, he believed that the Prince Jing would come back after getting a job, so he went back to the Duke Palaces first.
He didn't expect to hear that the Prince Jing had already returned and was currently in his study.
Lu Ming also went to the study room, but before he could do so, he heard the sounds of cups breaking, and then a low cough.
He suddenly felt that it was a little strange, Song Chongjing was not a person who would casually lose his temper, why was it like this … Could he have met with some displeasure in the Prime Minister's Mansion?
As he was thinking about this, he knocked on the door. The coughing sound suddenly stopped, and he could only hear a whisper, "Come in."
Lu Ming pushed open the door and entered. He saw that Song Chongjing was actually sitting at the side, perspiration trickling down his forehead. He lowered his head to cover his legs, his face somewhat pale.
Lu Ming hurried over and helped him pour a cup. When he looked down, he saw that the cup was still on the floor and the porcelain plates and tea leaves were lying on the floor in a mess.
Song Chongjing looked at the ground and sighed: "I am useless now, if it was before, I would definitely not be like this."
It was just that last time, his injuries had not yet healed. This time, when he fought against his neighbors, he had come back with more wounds. His legs would tremble from time to time, and now that he had returned from the Prime Minister's Mansion, the weather had turned cold.
"At first, I didn't feel anything, but after staying in this room for a long time, I felt an abnormal pain." Song Chongjing had never revealed such an expression before, but then pain flashed past his face, and after being silent for a while, he asked calmly: "Lu Ming … "Tell me, if this goes on, will I still be able to enter the battlefield?"
Lu Ming heard this and sighed.
"Your Highness, don't think in such a way. Right now, the Emperor is being impolite. You also know …" "He was afraid that you would have outstanding merits in your battle and that you would be disobedient after that, so he didn't order people to treat you with all your might. Actually, you clearly have the ability to find a good doctor, so why did you listen to the emperor and keep using the imperial physician's medicine?"
After Song Chongjing heard this, he shook his head.
"It is not that I am willing, it is that I will serve him for one day, and that I will serve him as my Son of Heaven for one day. Back then, the Royal Father was passed down to him, and he valued the gentleness and mediocrity of Yun Che, hoping that he would bring great celebration to my Song Dynasty.
The ascension of the emperor, self-proclaimed as a celebration, and the reign of the emperor for more than twenty years, indeed made the great invasion as its name.
"Even if he has his heart set on keeping guard against me, I cannot bear a grudge against him because of that."
After Lu Ming heard this, he went silent for a long time, but did not agree.
However, Song Chongjing shook his head, no longer willing to listen.
"Forget it, why haven't you seen her for the past half day?"
Seeing that, Lu Ming shook his head, he had wanted to say something, but seeing that Song Chongjing had no intention to listen, he could only sigh.
He then asked, "If Your Highness didn't go to Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage, why are you back so early?"
Hearing that, Song Chongjing suddenly thought of the blanket in Xi Mengyao's room, and laughed.
"You don't know, but this young miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion is truly a strange person. Yesterday, she was punished by the Prime Minister, so she knelt in the ancestral hall for half the night.
This made Lu Ming curious: "There is such an impudent woman in this world?"
The corner of Song Chongjing's mouth raised, and he thought about all that Xi Mengyao had said, and couldn't help but to shake his head: "Who knows."
Seeing him like that, Lu Ming's eyes darkened.
