The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Chapter 15: First Meeting with Brother

Today is a good day to go out for fun, but Lu Lingxi still got up a little late because he was too excited last night and slept a little late.

In the morning, after the time when Lu Lingxi usually got up, there was still no movement in her room, so Liu Lu knocked on the door and called out, "Miss, it's time to get up. We have to go out for fun today. Master Yu Gang is back too. Everything is packed and he's waiting for you."

Lu Lingxi heard the voice and answered dazedly, "Yeah, I'm awake. I'll be up soon. Come in."

After more than a month of learning, Lu Lingxi can dress quickly by herself and no longer needs Chunhong and Liulu to help her change clothes. They just need to prepare the toiletries and bring in the breakfast.

Lu Lingxi half-closed his eyes, washed up, finished his breakfast in two bites, sat in front of the dressing table, and asked Chunhong to help him comb his hair. The whole process took about a quarter of an hour, which was quite efficient.

Chunhong combed her hair and looked at Lu Lingxi in the mirror. "Miss, I have to meet many people today. Do you want to put on some makeup? You will look more healthy and beautiful?"

"Yeah, okay, just put on some light makeup." Lu Lingxi nodded in a good mood.

When Lu Lingxi finished packing and came to the front yard, she saw a strong figure, about 1.8 meters tall, with his hair all combed to the top of his head, and a simple wooden hairpin inserted in the middle of his bun, which was basically parallel to the ground. "Miss, that's Master Yugang. I haven't seen him for a few months. Master Yugang has not only grown a lot taller, but also become stronger."

When they got closer, Chunhong and Liulu bowed to Lu Yugang and said, "Master, the young lady has packed everything and can go out."

Lu Yugang turned around when he heard the voice, and the first thing he noticed was: a person in a pink dress, with a cute double bun and a light pink and white hair accessory that matched the dress, was so cute. At this time, the soft spring light shone on Lu Lingxi's smiling face, which made Lu Yugang a little stunned.

When Lu Yugang was staring at Lu Lingxi in a daze, Lu Lingxi was also observing him. His sturdy figure gave people a sense of security, and his skin was a healthy wheat color, which was the result of long-term exposure to the scorching sun. It seemed that this brother really worked hard in the military camp. Moreover, his facial features were also very good, very heroic, and very different from the feminine and beautiful flower boys in modern times.

Lu Lingxi and Lu Yugang looked at each other for a long time, and Chunhong and Liulu felt a little awkward. Finally, it was Liulu who broke the silence with her quick words. "I know that Miss and Master must have a lot to say after not seeing each other for a long time, but I don't know how to start. But it's not a good idea to stand here all the time. Why don't we talk slowly after we get to the place?"

Lu Yu just came back to his senses and said generously, "It's been a long time since we last met. My sister has become more and more beautiful. I am stunned by her."

Lu Lingxi was a little overwhelmed when he heard Lu Yugang praising him like this, and smiled awkwardly, "Brother, you are joking."

"Come on, sister, get in the carriage. Today, let's go to the Chunhui River in the suburbs for a walk and relax, okay?" While speaking, Lu Yugang turned sideways to make way for Lu Lingxi, letting her walk in front and get in the carriage first.

Lu Lingxi walked to the gate of the mansion and saw the carriage waiting there. The carriage looked quite big, maybe as big as a 1.5-meter bed. There were two lanterns hanging in front of the carriage, each with the word "Lu" written on it, which probably meant that it was used exclusively by the Zhenguo Marquisate. There were two horses pulling the carriage in front, one person on each side to prevent them from moving around. Such a large solid wood carriage looked quite heavy, and the two horses must have worked hard. There was also a low stool in front of the carriage so that Lu Lingxi could get on the carriage more easily.

Lu Lingxi got on the carriage neatly, followed by Chunhong and Liulu. The carriage was cushioned and looked very comfortable. Lu Lingxi sat on the right side of the carriage, while Chunhong and Liulu sat opposite him. Lu Lingxi had thought that Lu Yugang would also take the carriage, so he left the middle seat.

But Lu Yugang did not get on the carriage. When Lu Lingxi just sat down, Lu Yugang's voice came from the side of the carriage: "Sister, are you seated? If you are, we will set off."

Lu Lingxi lifted the curtain on his side of the carriage, looked at Lu Yugang in confusion and said, "Brother, aren't you going to ride in the carriage with us?"

Just as he finished speaking, he realized that Lu Yugang was riding a horse, holding the reins in one hand and the whip in the other, with his back straight, looking very majestic. He couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow! Brother riding a horse is so handsome! I want to ride a horse too!"

Lu Yugang smiled dotingly, "Okay, I'll teach you how to ride a horse next time when I'm free. Once you learn, you can also ride a horse to travel, okay?"

Lu Yugang knew that Lu Lingxi had lost her memory, and Lu Yi had also specifically instructed him not to mention the fact that he had an engagement with the Crown Prince in front of Lingxi. Just now, he felt that Lingxi seemed to be a lot more distant from him, but just now, when he saw her acting coquettishly with him and making a fuss about wanting to ride a horse, he felt that she was still the sister who was close to him before. How nice!

Lu Lingxi then realized that he had been a little abrupt in speaking to Lu Yugang like that, so he quickly nodded, said "hmm" twice, and retracted his head into the carriage.

I just heard Lu Yugang outside telling the driver, "Let's go!" and the carriage started moving.

I originally thought that this kind of carriage with wooden wheels and no spring shock absorbers would be bumpy, but it feels okay with the cushions.

"Chunhong, how long will it take us to get to Chunhui River?" Lu Lingxi thought that if she had a lot of time, she could read some storybooks. She had learned literacy from Master Yan for more than a month and had made some progress. Now it would be no problem for her to read some casual storybooks to relax.

"About an hour. Well! I know you'll be bored, so I've prepared the script for you a long time ago. Hehehe!" Chunhong wanted to answer respectfully, but Liulu grinned with her big white teeth and answered with a smile.

Lu Lingxi pointed his index finger at Liu Lu's forehead and poked it hard, "You are really the worm in my stomach. You know me too well." After that, he took the book she handed over and began to read it with relish.

Chunhong had long been accustomed to the way Lu Lingxi and Liu Lu got along with each other. She smiled helplessly and didn't say much.

Lu Lingxi wanted to concentrate on reading the storybook, but after a while, maybe a cup of tea, the carriage started to get noisy, with hawkers calling out, probably passing through the streets of the city.

This ancient street, which I had only seen and imagined in novels and on TV, was now visible to me. How could Lu Lingxi calm down and read the storybook? He immediately put down the book, lifted the car curtain and looked out.

The market was bustling with people coming and going. There were people selling cloth and ready-made clothes, wontons, noodles, snacks, rouge, powder, facial tissues, jewelry, and many other things that Lu Lingxi couldn't name.

"Brother, can I go shopping? It's so lively!" Lu Lingxi looked around and made time to talk to Lu Yugang.

"After you finish shopping, we will go out of the city to Chunhui River. The sun will set then and we won't be able to see the beautiful spring scenery. Let's go for an outing today and I'll accompany you shopping tomorrow, okay?" Lu Yugang looked at Lu Lingxi with a smile as he spoke.

Lu Lingxi was attracted by the bustling street scene and didn't even look at his brother, but thought that it was okay to go shopping tomorrow and there was no rush.

"Since I'm not allowed to go shopping, why don't you buy me a candied haws there to compensate me?" Lu Lingxi said, pointing at the old man selling candied haws in front.

Seeing Lu Lingxi’s cute pouting face, how could Lu Yugang refuse her? He immediately went to buy four or five skewers and gave them to her, asking her to keep them for her to eat slowly on the way.

The carriage slowly drove out of the city gate. Lu Lingxi didn't lower the curtains until they passed the street. He then ate a candied haws and went to read a storybook.
