Confiscated the property and exiled? I emptied the warehouse and fled the famine.

Ruan Yunsheng was speechless. She really had to thank him. Meeting him in Southern Xinjiang? Was this a glorious thing?

"I understand. Thank you for your reminder, Your Highness."

"By the way, Ruan Yanci is here with me this time. I have to send him out today because he has something to do. I will let you meet up another day."

"it is good."

Let’s do it another day. She wishes she could set off now. The road to southern Xinjiang is not as complicated as yours.

"Azhou, you and your wife must be hungry. Please sit down. I have asked someone to prepare meals early in the morning. Look, they are all your favorite dishes." Xuan Che turned his gaze back to Lu Zhizhou.

Ruan Yunsheng didn't know why she had the illusion that she was a mistress. Xuan Che kept calling her Azhou and even ordered Lu Zhizhou's favorite dishes. She really suspected that the second prince was gay.

"Thank you, Second Prince."

"Azhou, there's no need to be so polite between us. Come and try this wine I brought you from the capital."

Before Lu Zhizhou could refuse, Ruan Yunsheng picked it up and sniffed it, "Don't mind, Your Highness. I'm just a commoner and a rough person. I haven't learned those etiquettes."

Xuan Che's expression was a little ugly, but he couldn't show it, he was very painful, "It's okay, Yun Sheng is also a person of temperament."

"But Your Highness, I advise you to put away your mandarin duck pot."

Xuan Che was stunned. "What do you mean by mandarin duck pot? But you think my wine is not good? It's okay, you can change it."

As he said this, he wanted to call the waiter, but was stopped by Ruan Yunsheng, "Alright, Your Highness, let's not beat around the bush. The design of your mandarin duck pot is not very good, I can see it, not to mention Lu Zhizhou. If you don't want to accept it, I will help you. Don't worry about the wine. I will throw away your pot and compensate you with a new one. I guarantee that you have never tasted it before."

Ruan Yunsheng had already made it so clear. If Xuan Che refused again, wouldn't it make people suspicious? Xuan Che secretly clenched his hands. Damn it, he must kill the person who made this mandarin duck wine pot. It was so easy to be discovered. "Yunsheng, please do as you please. I don't know why you are so hostile to me, but if doing this can make you feel more comfortable, please do as you please. My relationship with Zhou does not care about these etiquettes."

Ruan Yunsheng rolled his eyes, refusing moral blackmail and CPU. He threw all the tea cups, wine glasses and wine jugs on the table out. The guards outside the door were startled, but because Xuan Che didn't say anything, they didn't dare to stop him.

Lu Zhizhou watched all that Ruan Yunsheng did with a smile. No wonder Ruan Yunsheng kept it a secret from him and locked himself in the room secretly to prepare all this.

Xuan Che's face looked very ugly. He didn't expect that Ruan Yunsheng would actually throw the wine jug away. However, he had already said what he wanted to say and couldn't take it back.

"Okay, come and try my wine."

Ruan Yunsheng poured the wine into the jug and then poured a glass each for Lu Zhizhou and Xuan Che.

Xuan Che picked up the wine glass with a dark face, put it to his nose and smelled the strong aroma of wine, "What kind of wine is this, the aroma is so mellow."

"This is my special wine. I named it Maotai. What do you think?"

Xuan Che took a sip. This wine was different from the ones he drank in the past. It was spicy and numbing, and there was a scent of wine lingering between his lips and teeth.

"Good wine." Xuan Che drank it in one gulp and poured himself another glass. Seeing this, Ruan Yunsheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Zhizhou for praise. Lu Zhizhou smiled.

"Azhou, didn't you injure your leg in the Ministry of Justice? How did you recover from such a serious injury?"

Sure enough, the test came. One of the purposes of his coming this time was to see whether Lu Zhizhou's injuries had really recovered, not only his injuries but also his martial arts. If his martial arts had really recovered, it would be a bit difficult to eliminate him in the future.

"I met bandits and got beaten up by them, and my leg got better by accident."

Lu Zhizhou said calmly, Xuan Che looked at Lu Zhizhou with a dark face, "Do you think I believe what you said? If you want to find a reason, at least find a reasonable one. Even a dog won't believe this reason."

Ruan Yunsheng held his forehead with his hand. This kind of question might be fine for someone like Pei Yan who had some brains but not much, but who was he insulting when he was dealing with a vixen like Xuan Che?

"Oh, so that's how it is. This can be considered lucky."

Ruan Yunsheng:······You are really good at acting.

"Azhou, do you blame me for not asking my father for mercy and not going to the general's mansion to see you?"

"I know your highness's difficulties, and I don't blame you. This is my Lu family's misfortune and has nothing to do with others."

Xuan Che sighed, looking hurt, "Azhou, that day when you were carried back to the general's mansion, I got the news that you were going to be exiled, and I immediately prepared to leave the palace, but my mother found out. She drugged me and trapped me in the palace. When I woke up, you had already embarked on the road of exile. My mother threatened me with your life and told me not to go look for you, so I didn't dare to go see you."

Ruan Yunsheng secretly gave Xuan Che a thumbs up. This green tea acting skill would definitely be a good performance even in modern times.

"Ok, I know."

Lu Zhizhou knew that what he said was not true, but he no longer cared. His four words left Xuan Che with no chance to continue speaking.

After a few drinks, Xuan Che, who had always prided himself on his alcohol tolerance, had already started to feel dizzy. He held Lu Zhizhou's hand and said, "Zhou, why did we end up like this? Will we really become enemies?"

Lu Zhizhou's face was also a little red, but compared to Xuan Che, he was much better. "Some things cannot be turned back once they start. Our brotherhood ended the moment you sent someone to kill me."

"I know, but can you please promise me that you won't point the sword at me in the future? Consider our friendship over the years."

"People with different ideals cannot work together. I have my own mission. Xuan Che, why should you cling to something that does not belong to you? Didn't you yearn for the happiness of the frontier before?"

Xuan Che's eyes dimmed. When he was young, he also liked the scenery of the frontier, that kind of unrestrained life, but he accidentally heard the secret of his mother, and he didn't want to be beaten back to his original form. "In this case, there is nothing to say. Let's rely on our own abilities in the future."

"Thank you for your hospitality today. My wife and I will go back first."

As he spoke, Lu Zhizhou pulled the hand of Ruan Yunsheng, who was still watching the show with his hands on his cheeks. He stopped just as he reached the door and said, "Take care."

Then he took Ruan Yunsheng's hand and left without looking back. Before going down the stairs, she heard the sound of something breaking in the house and Xuan Che's angry voice. When they went back, Xuan Che did not ask anyone to send them back, so they walked back to the third brother's house.

Lu Zhizhou was silent all the way, so Ruan Yunsheng had no choice but to accompany him silently. Lu Zhizhou suddenly stopped and said, "Shengsheng, I only had Xuan Che as a friend before, but now I don't even have any friends."
