The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Concubine Guo accompanied Lu Lingxi out of Yanchun Palace. She looked back and said to Lu Lingxi, "Why does Crown Princess have to confront the Empress like this? Now is not the time for you to show your edge. If you confront her now, you will be the only one who will suffer."

Lu Lingxi: "Thank you for your reminder, Mother Guo, but you also saw what happened today. They came for my daughter-in-law, and my daughter-in-law was just fighting back."

Concubine Guo motioned Lu Lingxi to continue walking forward with her, and said helplessly: "The Crown Princess is in an awkward situation in the palace now. The status and seniority of the Queen are higher than yours. She has a hundred ways to torture you. You have dealt with her relatively well today. I just don't know what other tricks she has in store for you in the future. If you can hide in the Crown Prince's Mansion and not enter the palace like before, maybe you can have some peace."

Lu Lingxi: "If she hides in the mansion, she will have more reasons to take advantage of the situation. It is best to create some trouble for her so that she will be unable to deal with it. Another way to solve the problem once and for all is to let her suffer a big loss so that she will never dare to provoke me again."

Seeing that Lu Lingxi was confident, Concubine Guo smiled and nodded, "If there's anything I can help you with, Crown Princess, just let me know."

In fact, Lu Lingxi had not yet figured out what to do, but since Concubine Guo was willing to help, she agreed first. She would discuss the specific plan when she returned.

Lu Lingxi chatted with Concubine Guo for a few more words, then headed straight for the palace gate with Chunhong and Liulu.

Nan Wangyu was already waiting for her at the palace gate.

Lu Lingxi walked up to Nan Wangyu and asked casually, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Nan Wangyu: "No, I just got off court. Let's go, get in the carriage first and talk in the carriage."

Before getting on the carriage in the morning, Lu Lingxi felt a little upset, fearing that Nan Wangyu would do something embarrassing and awkward when they were alone in the carriage. But Nan Wangyu was very well behaved in the morning, and now that he was riding in the same carriage with him, Lu Lingxi no longer had any psychological burden and had long forgotten what happened before.

The two got on the carriage, and after they sat down, the carriage moved forward steadily.

After sitting down, Nan Wangyu asked jokingly, "How was the battle today? Did you suffer any loss at the hands of Queen Gu?"

Lu Lingxi sighed first, then said, "It's half and half. Concubine De was demoted to Concubine De, but the fact that the King of Qi had a hidden illness did not stimulate her. Instead, she scolded me and made me kneel down. I can only say that the old ones are the wisest. It's still a bit lacking if I confront them rashly. Next time I should be more prepared."

Nan Wangyu smiled and patted Lu Lingxi's hand, saying, "It's okay. Our Lingxi is already very powerful. He injured a general of the enemy. Don't take her scolding to heart. Does your knee hurt?"

As he spoke, Nan Wangyu wanted to pull up Lu Lingxi's skirt to look at her knees, but suddenly he remembered the unpleasantness that happened in the carriage two days ago. Fearing that she would have bad associations, he withdrew his hand.

Lu Lingxi also noticed that Nan Wangyu was about to fall on his knees, and suddenly retracted his hand, smiling awkwardly: "It's okay, I didn't kneel for long, it doesn't hurt at all."

The two of them were speechless for a while, and walked in silence all the way to the gate of the Prince's Mansion.

At noon, when the two of them were having lunch, Nan Wangyu suggested: "Lingxi, my father and I will take a leave tomorrow, let's go outing together? The weather has warmed up a lot recently, everything is reviving, flowers and plants are blooming, it will definitely be more interesting than our last outing."

Lu Lingxi thought about it seriously and said, "Okay, let's not take a carriage this time. How about riding a horse? Let's not go to the river, let's go hiking. Which is the highest mountain outside the city?"

"The highest mountain outside the city is Junling Mountain, but we can't reach the top of the mountain by horseback. We can only reach halfway up the mountain. If we really want to reach the top, we can only walk. Moreover, the mountain road is not easy to walk on. There may be mountain monsters and wild beasts. It's too dangerous. Why don't we not go. You want to ride a horse? I'll take you to the hunting ground. There are people who take care of it there. Camping and hunting is both interesting and not dangerous. Okay?"

Lu Lingxi disagreed and said, "It's interesting because it's dangerous and mysterious. If you're afraid, let's bring more people. There's strength in numbers, and we won't be afraid of anything. If we can really reach the top and camp to watch the sunrise, the scenery will definitely be good for any painting or words to describe. Isn't it very interesting?"

Nan Wangyu secretly wanted to appear strong and reliable in front of Lu Lingxi, so how could he say he was afraid in front of her? Besides, he wasn't really afraid, he was mainly worried that Lingxi would be in danger. But then he thought again that he would always follow her, protect her, and not let her encounter any danger, so he nodded in agreement.

After making such a happy decision, Lu Lingxi quickly finished his lunch.

It is inevitable to encounter problems when traveling, but if you plan ahead, you can always avoid many problems and make your trip much more enjoyable.

Tomorrow is the outing, and it will be a rare time for Chang Wei and Xiao Hua to go out and have fun. However, they are not taking a carriage tomorrow, so Lu Lingxi is a little confused about how to take them with him. Should he ask them to run after the horses?

As for Chunhong and Liulu, they can't ride horses, so I originally thought of letting them rest in the mansion. Now Changwei and Xiaohua are also difficult to settle down, so why not prepare a carriage, so that we can bring more things. The carriage moves slowly, so let them follow slowly from behind.

After planning what to bring tomorrow, Lu Lingxi asked Chunhong to help the steward Sun Fulu prepare things.

Afterwards, Lu Lingxi became worried about what to wear tomorrow. Originally, she wanted to wear a red riding suit, comb her hair into a high ponytail, and add a red headband, just to look like the chivalrous young woman in her imagination, dressed in bright clothes and riding a horse.

But Liu Lu disagreed. Red is too eye-catching in the forest. If she really encounters a wild beast, it will easily attract an attack, which is a big safety hazard for Lu Lingxi. She suggested that she should wear plain clothes like usual, and she can choose the ponytail and hairband as she likes.

Lu Lingxi was a person who was very good at accepting opinions. After a little thought, he accepted Liu Lu's opinion.

After arranging all the food, Lu Lingxi went to see Yunzong, whom she had not seen for a long time since she came to the Prince's Mansion as a dowry. It would have to work hard tomorrow, so she wanted to cultivate a relationship with it now to prevent it from not recognizing her tomorrow.

When Lu Lingxi arrived at Mapeng, he greeted Yunzong enthusiastically, "Hello, Yunzong! Long time no see. You have grown taller and stronger."

Lu Lingxi approached and wanted to touch Yunzong's head, but Yunzong raised his head shyly, and she couldn't touch it even when she stood on tiptoe. Then she realized that Yunzong had grown a lot taller during this period, and she could still touch its head before.

Not knowing that the Crown Princess would suddenly come to the horse shed, the steward hurried over and said, "Hello, Crown Princess. This is the Crown Prince's horse, named Yunpeng. Your Yunzong is over there."

Lu Lingxi looked in the direction of the steward's finger, and saw a brown horse over there, slightly smaller than the one in front of him. Only then did he realize that he had recognized the wrong horse, and withdrew his hand somewhat embarrassedly: "I was thinking, Yunzong is already an adult, how could he still be so tall?"

The steward led Lu Lingxi towards Yunzong and explained, "The horse your majesty has is one that the Marquis carefully selected based on your body shape. Although it looks smaller, it's as energetic as other horses."

Lu Lingxi nodded: "Got it, you don't have to accompany me all the time, I'll talk to Yun Zong here for a while and then leave, you go and get busy."

After the steward left, Lu Lingxi came to Yunzong and raised his head to touch it, but it tilted its head and looked quite arrogant, as if to say, "I told you not to recognize me, so I won't let you touch me."

Lu Lingxi fed Yunzong a lot of grass and said a lot of nice things to it before he coaxed it into submission. He then rode it slowly for a few laps.
