Cypress Boat Floating

Lu Zhixing handed over the marching distribution map to the emperor, and also summarized the causes and consequences of the matter into a memorial and handed it to the emperor.

However, because the New Sun organization was not caught, the emperor gave no reward or punishment for this incident, and ordered Lu Zhixing to lead the Dali Temple to arrest the mastermind behind the New Sun as soon as possible, without giving a deadline this time.

The matter has come to an end and everyone has started a new life.

But after this incident, Qiu Xingwei from the Ministry of War did show some goodwill towards Lu Zhixing, but it was only superficial and he did not take much action. We can only wait and see what happens next.

After the matter was over, Lu Ci Qiu was locked up in Lu Zhixing's mansion to recuperate and heal his injured leg. Ye Jianqing was also instructed to keep a good eye on him and take good care of him.

The two of them could only stare at each other at home every day, and every now and then they would think of sneaking out, but they were caught by the people sent by Lu Zhixing. After being caught, they were locked up in their own rooms for two days before being released.

Amidst these days of cat and mouse, the Dragon Boat Festival also arrived with the hot weather.

It rained all the time in the capital city in the days before the Dragon Boat Festival, getting heavier day by day. Looking at the continuous rain, Ye Jianqing couldn't help but sigh a few times.

"What's wrong? Why are you sighing here?" Lu Ci Qiu slowly walked to her side. After a period of rest, his legs had almost healed. However, Lu Zhixing was always afraid that he would run around and suffer from some sequelae to his legs, so he always kept him locked up in the mansion.

"This rain won't stop~" Ye Jianqing doesn't like rain.

When they were young, rain represented recklessness and youth. When it rained, they would rush out into the rain with their counselors and feel the pleasure brought by the rain.

The subsequent rain represented a mission, represented that some of the clues they had been looking for would be washed away, and represented death.

So, she later disliked rain more and more.

The thunder sounded like the incessant sound of artillery shells, ringing in her ears.

"Raining is so annoying." Lu Ci Qiu sat next to her and spoke as she spoke.

Ye Jianqing tilted her head towards him and looked at him when she heard his words. How come she didn't know that Lu Ciqiu also hated the rain? Thinking of this, she asked.

"Because it's raining, I have to stay at home and can't go out with you." Lu Ci Qiu said with a smile.

To Ye Jianqing, ordinary teasing words sounded like a child saying cheesy love words to her. She just laughed it off and didn't think too much about it.

"I heard that my second sister-in-law is pregnant. Even if we are fine, do you want to go over for dinner? They should be preparing for the Dragon Boat Festival temple fair these days. If it doesn't rain, we can go for a walk outside after dinner."

"The Second Princess is pregnant? So soon?" Ye Jianqing counted on his fingers and it seemed to be true. In her previous life, her pregnancy was announced around this time. It seemed like she was already three months pregnant.

Although Lu Ci Qiu invited her to have dinner at Lu Zhixing's house, it seemed that it was not possible for her to go there at the moment, so she shook her head: "No, you can go, my identity is not suitable."

As if he had already guessed her reaction, Lu Ci Qiu was not in a hurry. He just took out an invitation letter from his sleeve and handed it to her mysteriously, "Take a look."

Ye Jianqing looked at the invitation letter in his hand, then looked at him again, took the invitation letter from his hand and opened it with confusion.

"The Second Princess invited me?" Ye Jianqing was shocked. This... Why would a princess who was not even familiar with her invite her to dinner at her home?

Her first reaction was that her former boss Lu Zhixing was going to do something bad to her, but when she thought about it more carefully, he had already tied her to his brother, so what else could she do?

Then why did Princess Qin suddenly invite her to dinner at her home?

I can't figure it out and I can't understand it.

Ye Jianqing looked more sharply at the man next to him who was grinning foolishly and seemed to know something.

"Tell me, what's going on?" She waved the invitation in her hand and asked.

"I don't know either. My second sister-in-law suddenly sent someone here today and said she wanted to see you." Lu Ci Qiu shook his head honestly.

"Why do you want to see me suddenly?"

"I don't know either." Lu Ci Qiu could actually guess a little bit. Everyone in the capital could see his attitude towards Ye Jianqing. Everyone also knew that there was a beautiful wife hidden in the Prince Xian's mansion. Even his mother would ask him tentatively every time he entered the palace.

Now that my second sister-in-law has suddenly sent me an invitation, I’m afraid my mother asked her to come and test the waters.

"You have to go to my second sister-in-law's appointment, otherwise it would be impolite. Besides, I guess my second brother also knows about this."

"Are you threatening me?" Ye Jianqing frowned. She didn't like socializing with people, especially those of obvious class. She knew a little about Wei Wangshu, but that didn't mean she could go to his place for dinner without any precautions.

I’m afraid this is a Hongmen Banquet.

"No, no, I didn't." Lu Ci Qiu shook his head and waved his hands. How dare he threaten her? He was just talking. He also knew Ye Jianqing's concerns, so he comforted her directly: "Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will happen."

"It's more likely to happen when you're around." Ye Jianqing muttered.

Ye Jianqing sighed. She had to go now whether she wanted to or not. Since she had to go, she had to pack well and not let people look down on her. But when she thought about dealing with them, she felt tired. She was not the kind of person who was particularly good at dealing with people. Society only made her feel tired.

"Where are you going?" Seeing Ye Jianqing stand up without saying a word, Lu Ci Qiu was worried that she would not go, so he quickly followed her and asked.

"Change clothes and pack up." Ye Jianqing strode forward without looking back.

Wei Wangshu was the daughter of Shangshu Wei Wenwei. Ye Jianqing had the honor of meeting her in his previous life and had heard others talk about her, mostly praising her. But Ye Jianqing was not sure about Wei Wangshu.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh. I knew nothing about the person I was about to face, and I didn't know how much information the other person knew about me. This was really troublesome.

If he doesn't go, he will only implicate Lu Ci Qiu. Even though she is only his second sister-in-law, she is still an elder and a princess. How dare he not go even though she has already sent him an invitation?

Go ahead, but I always feel there is a pit ahead and I’m afraid I’ll get killed.

"Why are you sighing all the time, young lady?" Yuqin, who was helping Ye Jianqing dress up, saw her sighing all the time and asked curiously.

"Yuqin, do you know the Princess of Qin?" Ye Jianqing asked Yuqin without hope. Everyone must know the Princess of Qin.

"I know. Yuqin had the honor of serving the Princess of Qin for a while before." Yuqin nodded. Although she didn't know why Ye Jianqing asked this, she still told the truth.

"Oh, you have served the Princess of Qin. What do you think of her?" Oh, a ready-made information database. Ye Jianqing didn't expect that he would find an information database just by asking casually.

"The Princess of Qin is a very kind person, she treats people gently, and she doesn't put on airs with us servants. Back then, the Princess of Qin was pregnant, and the Concubine Shu was worried about her, so she sent a few of us who were more attentive to help take care of her. Later, the Princess gave birth smoothly, and she sent us back to the Concubine Shu's palace when she didn't need anything.

The princess has a good personality and is very affectionate with the King of Qin. People in the palace say that they have never seen the princess lose her temper. "When it comes to the Princess of Qin, Yuqin has a lot to say, but in the end, the princess has a good personality and treats people well.

But...these adjectives are obviously not enough for Ye Jianqing.

As expected, you still have to go and see it yourself to know.

Ever since she knew that Ye Jianqing was going to meet the Princess of Qin, Yuqin had been even more attentive in dressing up Ye Jianqing. She tried several looks of makeup on her over and over again, and finally used the lightest one that best brought out the advantages of Ye Jianqing's face.

The clothes are also a light green color, which makes people feel comfortable just looking at them in this hot summer.

What is coming will eventually come.

Ye Jianqing followed Lu Ci Qiu into the carriage and headed towards Prince Qin's Mansion.

"Don't worry, I'm here." Lu Ci Qiu was worried that Ye Jianqing would be scared, so he kept comforting her on the way.

"I'm not worried." Ye Jianqing was the most stubborn person in his entire body. He was obviously very worried but he always said that he was not worried.

"Why do I feel like I'm going to meet my parents-in-law?" Ye Jianqing couldn't help but complain at this scene. It was as if Lu Ciqiu was going to take her to meet his parents-in-law, and then she would be the ugly daughter-in-law?

Bah, bah, bah, what an ugly wife! What's so ugly about her? She is obviously a beautiful wife.

Just as he was complaining, the carriage stopped and they arrived at the Prince Qin's Palace.

Lu Ci Qiu got off the carriage first, then waited beside it for her to get off. When she lifted the curtain, he stretched out his right hand for her to hold on to get down. Ye Jianqing smiled at him to express her gratitude.

Lu Ci Qiu had been to the Prince Qin's Mansion countless times and was very familiar with it, but it was Ye Jianqing's first time here, so he was naturally very unfamiliar with it.

Lu Ci Qiu took Ye Jianqing and walked towards the mansion. The doorman was very familiar with Lu Ci Qiu. When he saw it was him, he didn't dare to stop him and quickly let him in.

Lu Zhixing and Wei Wangshu were sitting in the hall waiting for them. When Wei Wangshu saw them appear, he was about to stand up to greet them, but was held down by Lu Zhixing.

This scene naturally fell into Ye Jianqing's eyes. She knew how Lu Zhixing treated her. He was just using her as a chess piece. How could he let his wife come to greet a chess piece? It was funny to think about it. It was obviously like this, but he still allowed his wife to invite him to dinner.

Lu Ci Qiu took Ye Jianqing to the hall.

"Hello, second brother and second sister-in-law." In the past, Lu Ci Qiu would not have performed such a greeting in private, but today he brought Ye Jianqing with him, and he didn't want to embarrass Ye Jianqing.

"I, Ye Jianqing, greet the King of Qin and the Queen of Qin." Ye Jianqing followed suit and half-knelt to salute the two people sitting in the upper seats.

"Get up, get up." Wei Wangshu seemed very happy to see Ye Jianqing, and this attitude made Ye Jianqing look confused.

"Qing'er, right? Come and sit down." Wei Wangshu was indeed as gentle as the rumors said, and the smile on his face was very warm.

"Thank you, Princess."

Lu Ci Qiu took Ye Jianqing to sit on the left.

Now that people have seen it, Ye Jianqing wants to see what is going to happen today.
