Chapter 14
The spring is late, and the flowers and trees are luxuriant.

Luo Li and Qiu Lu embarked on the journey to the capital. Along the way, the grass grew and the birds flew, and the willows swayed. They sat in the carriage and watched the spring scenery on both sides. They couldn't help sighing that the mountains and rivers were beautiful and picturesque.

Qiulu was like the oriole singing on the branch, chirping along the way, excited.

After a day of driving, they stopped at an inn.

The inn is located in a bazaar, it is very lively, and there are many guests coming and going. When they entered the lobby, there were already no empty seats.

Seeing the two beautiful girls, Xiaoer rushed up to greet her: "Do you want to stay at the hotel?"

Luo Li nodded: "Is there no place for dinner here?"

Xiao Er smiled awkwardly: "I'm really sorry, why don't you two go to the room and wait for a while?"

Luo Li was about to speak, but heard a man's voice: "If the two girls don't dislike it, you can come and sit together."

I saw a man in a black robe with an unmistakable appearance occupying a table alone, with thick black eyebrows, peach-like eyes, thin lips, and a slight smile at the corners of his lips.

Luo Li and Qiu Lu looked at each other, Luo Li was still quite defensive: "Thank you, young master, we will wait later."

The man in black didn't force it, just smiled. Luo Li and Qiu Lu were about to go to the room on the second floor, but they heard the guests discussing Chu Yi.

"The Ninth Prince is going back to the capital soon. It's not easy after fighting for two years!"

"It seems that Xiyue even offered to sacrifice their princess this time."

"Then I don't know who the princess is dedicated to?"

"I don't know, I guess it should be the emperor."

"But I heard that the Ninth Prince will bring back a woman..."

Luo Li stopped in her footsteps and stared intently at those gossiping people, but her heart was a little bit bitter and her face was also a little sad.

Qiu Lu held her back: "Let's ignore such rumors."

Luo Li smiled and nodded: "I believe him!"

The man in black glanced at her deeply, then continued to drink the wine leisurely with the wine cup.

Luo Li stared at him for a moment, then ignored him and went straight back to the room.

After they put down their salutes, the waiter quickly brought up a pot of tea. I don't know whether it was apologetic or out of love: "You two girls, if our shop is neglecting you, please don't take it to heart. This is a good pot. Biluochun, take it as an apology."

Qiu Lu pursed her lips, and after walking around the little girl, she clicked her lips and said, "Young man, don't make wrong decisions in front of your aunt, it's very dangerous."

Xiao Er's smile was as if it was not smiling: "Miss, you are joking, we are not a black shop, how could we have crooked ideas!"

"That's good! Girl, I'm not a vegetarian. Don't bully me just because we belong to two girls!"

Luo Li stared at Xiao Er: "Get two of your signature dishes and send them to your room!"

Xiao Er kept saying yes and backed away.

Luo Li looked at her amusedly: "Chief Qiulu, did you find anything suspicious?"

Qiu Lu leaned her face closer with a smile: "Miss Luo, I'm a rough person, I can only scare others, but I need you to observe if it's not suspicious."

Luo Li took the teapot in her hand and looked around, then opened it and smelled it again: "The tea is really good tea." After speaking, she poured two cups and handed one to Qiulu.

Qiu Lu took it and asked suspiciously: "Are you sure there is no problem? Do you want to try it?" She took out the silver needle and tried it, and it was all right before she drank it down.

Luo Li tasted it leisurely, and said quietly: "Be careful tonight."

Qiu Lu opened her mouth wide: "Then it's still suspicious, so can I sleep tonight?"
