Chen Shaoyou did not directly respond to Lu Mingyu's question.

He looked at his aunt-in-law inquiringly and said obediently: "Marriage is a matter of great importance, and the matchmaker is ordered by the parents. Young people do not dare to make their own decisions."

Lu Mingyu smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Mrs. Shangshu is also an old ginger who has been in the circle of noble women for many years. Because of the incident when Gong E came to report the incident of Princess Jin Huai, she intuitively felt that there must be some reason.

So she observed the concubine's reaction, then quietly glanced at the new queen on the phoenix throne, and when she took the ball thrown by the concubine, she responded like this:

"Thank you for your love, but Sanlang doesn't have any fame, so I'm afraid he may have wronged Miss Lu Yi."

Although she liked Lu Yi very much, she was extremely satisfied.

But her answer did not reveal her urgency.

She thought that if the queen really stood up for her adopted sister, she would definitely follow her words and say that Miss Lu Yi didn't care about the background of Saburo's concubine.

But if the empress does not mean that, then she will follow the trend and regard her words as a polite rejection.

When Lu Mingyu heard this answer, he glanced at Mrs. Shangshu with great interest, and then said: "I am actually anxious. I should let the two of you know better before mentioning this matter."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Shangshu breathed a long sigh of relief.

She thought to herself that she had indeed made the right bet.

If she agrees immediately, there is no telling what kind of changes will happen next.

So she responded with a smile: "Your Majesty, I am very grateful to you for thinking about your two children. As the saying goes, we are destined to meet each other thousands of miles away. I hope their fate will be more than this."

Lu Mingyu smiled: "What Mrs. Chen said is absolutely true. Today is an opportunity for the two of them to get to know each other. It will not be too late to discuss more long-term matters in the future."

While speaking, Lu Mingyu looked at Lu Yi: "It's rare for the Third Young Master to enter the palace. The Imperial Garden has a beautiful view. How about you take him for a walk?"

Lu Yiying saluted, then looked at Chen Shaoyou shyly: "Master, please."

Chen Shaoyou did not refuse, saluted Lu Yi, and then left with Lu Yi.

Only Mrs. Shangshu was left. Lu Mingyu did not talk about anything else, but chatted with Mrs. Shangshu at random.

Mrs. Shangshu felt very strange from Lu Mingyu's attitude, but she swallowed her doubts and patiently accompanied Lu Mingyu.

the other side.

Lu Yi was generous and took Chen Shaoyou to visit the scenery in the imperial garden.

She slowly introduced Chen Shaoyou. Her elegant conversation and good temperament made the conversation relaxed and pleasant.

Chen Shaoyou did not show any unnaturalness in his companionship with her. Instead, he responded to the girl beside him like a gentle and modest gentleman.

He said: "Miss Lu Yi is so knowledgeable and talented that I admire her."

Lu Yi covered her lips and said with a smile: "Actually, I didn't know how to read before. My sister felt sorry for me and taught me how to read and write when she kept me by her side. That's why I became somewhat proficient in writing and made the young master laugh."

Chen Shaoyou was very surprised: "It was the empress who taught you how to read in person?"

Lu Yi nodded: "Yes, my wife is kind-hearted and does not despise my origin. She treats me as a biological sister. This kind of kindness will never be repaid in this life."

Chen Shaoyou smiled and said nothing more.

But in the following conversation, he spoke a lot more.

When talking about some things with Lu Yi, he can also quote scriptures and speak of these things in a lively, interesting and cultured way.

It can be seen that his knowledge is indeed profound.

At this time, Lu Yi inadvertently helped Bu Yao.

One of the palace maids received the hint and immediately quietly retreated.

After a while, a whisper came from the front. The sound was not loud, but it was enough for the two of them to hear clearly.

"This Princess Jinhuai has offended the Queen, I think her good days are over."

"Isn't that right? I used to think that she was a sensible person, but I didn't expect that she would be so careless about reputation and seek life for a man. How could she act like a master?"

"I guess after a period of time, the queen will free her hands and she will be punished. If I were her, I would stop immediately, lest there be no good fruits to eat."

"..."

The two of them whispered, biting their ears.

Lu Yi glanced at Chen Shaoyou apologetically, and then walked over.

There was no harsh scolding, just appearing there, the two little girls were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

Lu Yi said softly: "The palace has palace rules, so what's the use of asking for mercy from me? Go to the grandma in charge to receive the punishment."

The two palace maids rolled away and crawled to the ground, showing that they were very afraid of Lu Yi.

However, during the whole process, Lu Yi's voice was very soft, without any sign of anger.

Chen Shaoyou stood not far away, watching this scene quietly.

Lu Yi's eyes flashed, and she walked up to Chen Shaoyou with her skirt in hand: "Let the young master laugh."

Chen Shaoyou smiled and said: "Miss Lu Yi is overly worried. Just now, when I saw Miss Lu Yi in Wan Sheng, she didn't blush, but Gong E was already frightened. This shows that Miss Lu Yi has the authority to tell the truth."

Lu Yi chuckled: "They are just afraid of my sister behind me. Why are they afraid of me? My sister loves me and they are afraid of me. Isn't that what people are like?"

Chen Shaoyou nodded slightly and continued walking in the back garden with Lu Yi.

There was a sudden noise behind him. Chen Shaoyou turned around in confusion, but saw nothing, so he continued walking forward.
