Chapter 16
Seeing that the time to release the key to the palace gate was approaching, in the quiet corner of the palace, there was still someone running towards the palace gate with a medicine box on his back.

Lu Yungui, who had been serving in the Cishou Palace for two whole days without closing his eyes, did not feel tired at this moment, but rather anxious.

But when he was about to leave the palace gate, he was stopped by a white-haired eunuch with a wrinkled face: "Doctor Lu, wait a moment. Wait for our house!"

Lu Yungui frowned slightly, it's already this time, why did he catch up here?
Turning around and bowing his head respectfully: "Eunuch Ning, what orders does the Empress Dowager have?"

Eunuch Ning's short and fat body was out of breath after running for a long time.

The eyeballs were almost as white as the sky, and after panting for a while, he finally said a complete sentence: "Of course the Empress Dowager has important orders!"

"Please make it public."

"Hmph~ Don't worry, hey, it's a good thing to call you~" Eunuch Ning, who had an old face just now, burst into a smile instantly.

As he said that, he took a brocade box inlaid with enamel and treasure from the hand of the little eunuch beside him, and showed it in front of Lu Yungui: "The empress dowager specially ordered the miscellaneous family to come here in person, just to give you this."

Seeing that Lu Yungui didn't dare to raise his head, Eunuch Ning said again: "The queen mother knows that today is the day of great joy for King Yan and the daughter of the Lu family. Unfortunately, you are not well and that's why you were detained in the palace for two days~"

The old man who spoke so loudly made Lu Yungui feel anxious, but he didn't dare to neglect.

"Diagnosing and treating the empress dowager is the job of a humble official. The younger sister in the family is also taken care of by other elder brothers."

"Hmph, let's say you have a bright future as Imperial Physician Lu, you really can talk~"

As Eunuch Ning said, he raised his orchid finger and waved the whisk in his hand twice: "This pair of emerald green phoenix butterflies with gold silk dots was made with a lot of money by the Ministry of Internal Affairs this year. The Queen Mother, an old man, specially ordered our family to hand over to you as a gift to Yan. Princess~"

Lu Yungui raised his eyes lightly, and saw two extremely gorgeous step rocks lying in the brocade box.

He frowned, still bowed and bowed his head, not knowing whether to answer or not?
The empress dowager is in very good health, after making such a move, don't you want to make a joke about the little sister's failure to marry?

But today, the incidents that happened in the Prince Yan's Mansion have already been spread throughout the imperial court and harem.

Now that she is offering a generous gift, what exactly is she intending to do?
While hesitating, Eunuch Ning rolled his eyes again: "What are you waiting for, are you so happy?"

With a sound of "cut", he clasped the brocade box heavily and stuffed it into Lu Yungui's hand: "The queen mother told me that marriage is a great gift from the first emperor, and this marriage is a match made in heaven! Let the princess wear this step to pay her respects tomorrow." ~"

After speaking, he took the little eunuch and walked away with a twist.

Lu Yungui hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Empress Dowager, for the reward."

He sighed and walked out of the palace gate.

The servant of the Lu family has been waiting outside the door for a long time.

Seeing Fifth Master come out, he hurriedly stepped forward to take the things in his hand.

Because the second master had just passed the news, the boy drove directly to the other courtyard of Dingguo Mansion in the west of the city.

Along the way, Lu Yungui heard the noise of cars and horses on the road.

Looking out of Xunsheng, he saw dozens of official carriages driving in the opposite direction to him, heading straight for the palace.

"It's not yet Zishi, why did the courtiers go to wait for the morning court so early?"

The boy waved his horsewhip and said jokingly: "I guess I've been at home all day today, and I can't wait to go out!"

The speaker was unintentional, but Lu Yungui still vaguely felt a little uneasy.

The brocade box in his hand was more like a soldering iron, scorching hot.

After crossing Ping'an Street, there were almost no cars and horses on the road, and it took less than an hour to arrive at the new house.

"Second Brother! Sixth Brother!!"

Lu Yungui entered the door and went straight to the brightly lit main hall.

I wanted to discuss with my brother about the queen mother's reward first, but I saw that both of them were holding a copper binoculars in their hands, watching quietly in the direction of Yan Wang's mansion, turning a deaf ear to their own shouts.

"What are you looking at!"

As he said that, he snatched the binoculars from his second brother Lu Yunfan, and followed their line of sight to watch.

"Oh my fifth brother! What are you doing!" Lu Yunfan saw that the fifth brother hurried to the side and snatched the binoculars from the hand of the sixth brother Lu Yunce: "Hey? Why is it missing?"

Lu Yunce gave the two brothers a blank look: "They changed places, so I can't see them anymore."

"Who are they? What changed places?" Lu Yungui was even more confused when he heard them talking nonsensically about things he didn't understand.

The two didn't answer, and heard a spy coming from outside the door: "Report!!!"

"Second Lord, Patriarch and King Yan went to the study."

After hearing this, Lu Yunfan quickly flipped through the map in his hand, and under the gaze of the other two pairs of eyes, pointed to a direction: "This is it!"

"Then you have to go to the East Bieyuan or Northeast Bieyuan to see it." Lu Yunce looked serious.

Lu Yungui followed the direction of the sixth brother's finger, and then he saw clearly that the center of this map is where the Palace of King Yan is located!
And the palace was surrounded by eight houses!

"Second brother, sixth brother, what are you doing?"

"Let's go, Second Brother will take you to open your eyes!" Lu Yunfan ordered someone to take a binoculars and put it in Lu Yungui's hand.

Immediately afterwards, they took the two of them from the North Courtyard of Dingguo Mansion, through a small gate, to the Northeast Courtyard.

After finding a suitable location, the three of them each held a binoculars, and the camera was directly facing King Yan's study.

At this time, Lu Yungui suddenly realized: So these two people were spying on my younger sister and brother-in-law!

I saw Xiao Yanzhi and Lu Wanlan in the mirror entering the study one after the other.

"It's so late, they didn't enter the bridal chamber? Why did they go to the study?" The second elder brother Lu Yunfan took turns to watch, but he could only see two figures pacing back and forth on the wooden door of the study.

Xiao Yanzhi took a step forward, and Lu Wanlan also took a step.

"How long have you been watching?" Lu Yungui saw that there was nothing to see, so he sat down.

The other two also lost their patience and sat down one on the left and one on the right.

"I haven't looked at it for long, but I've been watching it since we came back."

The second brother Lu Yunfan leaned half on the chair: "I didn't see anything..."

"Hmph, instead of peeking like this, it's better to go to their place openly." Lu Yungui stood up and pointed at the brocade box, "This is a great gift from the empress dowager, let my little sister go and greet her tomorrow."

After speaking, he walked towards the door.

In the study of King Yan's Mansion.

Sitting in front of the long table, Xiao Yanzhi unfolded a piece of rice paper with Ruyi dark patterns, and slapped the bronze ruler in his hand, already on the verge of getting angry: "Isn't the princess tired? The king has business to do, you can go back .”

"The lord wants to recite poems and paint? Then this concubine will grind ink for you!"

While speaking, that soft little hand had already picked up an ink ingot and lightly grinded it on the inkstone.

"You have already gone to pay your respects to the concubine mother with the king. She is also very satisfied with you. Now it's none of your business here. You can go back."

"The concubine and the prince are one and cannot be separated."

Xiao Yanzhi looked at the little girl in front of him still with a calm face, while speaking, the thick black and fragrant ink had already filled the ink pool of the inkstone.

Seeing her raise her head again, she said with a smile: "The ink is finished, why don't the prince give a letter to the concubine?"

In two lifetimes, Xiao Yanzhi has never seen her so brazen!

"Hmph." The patience had reached its limit, and the cold voice suddenly dispersed, "I'd like to advise Miss Lu not to push her forward. Otherwise, if I can marry you, I will naturally destroy you!"

At this moment, Lu Wanlan could already feel the coldness in the eyes of the person in front of him, the crescent-like eyes also gleamed coldly, and replied: "How does the lord want to destroy me?"

The corner of Xiao Yanzhi's mouth smiled, and the Zihao brush in his hand slowly lifted from the ink pool. As the thick black ink slowly dripped, the air in the room also slowed down: "For example, like this!"

As he spoke, he suddenly raised his wrist and waved the ink-soaked Zihao brush towards Lu Wanlan.
