The prince is very fierce

In the next two days, Xu Buling did not bother about the Dragon Chain Gu anymore. He went back to his life of attending classes at the Imperial College during the day and staying indoors at night.

When he was in the Imperial College, Xu Buling usually stayed in the bell and drum tower to ring the bell. After the morning reading, Song Yufu would come to the bell and drum tower without fail and say something like "A gentleman should not use his mouth but his hands..." and "Think twice before you act..." It was strange.

Xu Buling was a little troubled because he did not find any clues about the Dragon Chain Gu. He did not want to bully this junior who had no idea what was in her head. He caught her to copy books when he was annoyed by the noise.

I don't know if she was used to copying, Song Yufu not only did not resist, but also worked very hard, copying a few more sheets of paper every time, and after finishing, she would say: "You and I are friends, don't be polite, just remember the favor...".

Xu Buling did not mean to be polite with her, and asked Song Yufu if she wanted to be a princess.

As a result, the silly girl shook her head firmly, looking like a gentleman's friendship.

Xu Buling really didn't understand what Song Yufu wanted to do, so he put it aside. Anyway, this girl was interesting to talk to, and she wouldn't cause him any trouble... At least Xu Buling thought so...

On the third day of the twelfth lunar month, the long-lost sun shone in the garden of the palace. After being repaired by several palace guards, it was much neater inside and out, and red lanterns were hung under the eaves. It finally looked like the New Year.

Xu Buling rode back from the Imperial College. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw two groups of people standing outside the palace waiting respectfully. One was a palace maid, and the other was Mrs. Lu's maid Yue Nu. The sedan chair was parked next to the stone lion.

Xu Buling turned over and got off the horse, and the palace maid took a step ahead and bowed slightly: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother has set up a banquet in the palace. Please come in and have a chat."

Xu Buling was prepared for this: "I'll change my clothes and go over later."

The palace maid nodded and smiled, then retreated respectfully.

Yue Nu came over at this time and said with a smile: "Madam came at noon. I wanted to go to the Imperial College to call the young prince back, but Madam said no."

Xu Buling nodded, handed the horse to the guard, and entered the palace.

Old Xiao went to the place where all kinds of people gathered to get information. He was not at the mansion, and the backyard was empty.

He walked quickly to the study, took a look and saw no one, and then came to the bedroom.

Xu Buling walked past the bedroom window and looked up to see Madam Lu lying on the table in a dark blue pleated skirt.

Madam Lu must have fallen asleep, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, and her black hair was all over her cheeks. Her breathing was steady, and it could be seen that the collar hanging under the edge of the table had a very tense arc, with handsome peaks and ridges. Looking from the side, well... it was more spectacular than Zhu Manzhi.

"Ahem-"

Xu Buling touched his nose and quickly moved his unintentional gaze elsewhere.

As usual, Mrs. Lu came with a food box and placed it on the table. There was also a tray next to it with a robe inside. The room was very quiet. Because there were few furnishings, it seemed a bit empty and cold.

The underground of the palace was equipped with a ground dragon like the imperial palace. The heat from burning fire in the outer house went directly to the back house through the fire channel. Even if the bride was naked in the winter, she would not feel cold.

However, the palace was too large. The firewood used by the ground dragon for a winter was enough for the people on the street to survive the winter. Xu Buling lived alone and did not stay in the palace often. Once the ground dragon was burning, it could not be stopped, so there was no such waste. The room was still relatively cold.

Xu Buling entered the bedroom, walked to the small table and leaned over to take a look.

The faint fragrance was fragrant, the fragrance of peony flowers was refreshing, not too strong or too light, just right. I think it was the top fragrance powder of Xianzhizhai.

Xu Buling was not a woman, so naturally she could not smell what type was used, but it smelled good anyway. Seeing that Madam Lu was breathing steadily and sleeping peacefully, he walked to the closet quietly, took out a soft blanket, and draped it over Madam Lu's back.

"Hmm~"

A faint humming sounded.

Madam Lu's lips moved slightly, and she raised her hand to tighten the soft blanket on her shoulders. Her frowning eyebrows also relaxed. It was obvious that she was still quite cold just now and did not sleep well.

Xu Buling stood by and waited for a while. Madam Lu did not mean to wake up. He would go to the palace later, and it would be late at night when he came back. She would definitely catch a cold if she slept on the table.

Thinking of this, Xu Buling hesitated, leaned over and raised his hand through the knees of Madam Lu under her skirt, wanting to carry Madam Lu to the bed to rest.

The skirt slid over the back of her hand. The fabric was very good and delicate, and the flesh grew where it should grow, and it was still a bit heavy.

Xu Buling tried to be careful, but it was a pity that Madam Lu was awakened as soon as he exerted force on his arm.

Madam Lu suddenly raised her face, the hairpins between her hair trembled slightly, her eyes were a little confused, and she tilted her head to look at Xu Buling who was close at hand.

Xu Buling blinked his eyes, a little helpless: "Uh... I..."

Madam Lu's eyes quickly cleared up, and after reacting, she did not yell like last time, but raised her hand and hit Xu Buling's hand.

Snap—

Her eyes were serious, and there was a little annoyance, "I am your aunt!" was about to come out.

Xu Buling retracted his hand and spread it out again: "Aunt Lu, don't misunderstand, I saw you fell asleep, so I sent you to rest."

Madam Lu looked around, and after remembering the purpose of coming here at noon, her face returned to normal. She raised her hand to hook the hair by her ear, and slightly adjusted her wrinkled dress, then whispered:

"Buling, when did you come back?... I was a little sleepy just now, and fell asleep..."

Xu Buling sat down next to the small table, raised his hand to open the lunch box:

"I just came back, Aunt Lu came to wait for me, is there anything?"

"I can't come if I'm fine?"

"..."

Xu Bu Ling's hand that took the longan froze, and he chuckled: "That's not what I meant... I heard Yue Nu said you would come over at noon."

Mrs. Lu took the food box over, took out the longan from it, gently opened it with her delicate hands, and said softly:

"I'm bored at home, so I stopped by to take a look... The New Year is coming soon, so I took the time to make a new robe. You can try it on."

Xu Buling's clothes were basically handmade by Mrs. Lu. Hearing this, he naturally showed a bit of surprise. He raised his hand to pick up the robe in the tray, unfolded it and took a few glances, and his handsome smile froze.

The brand-new robe is made of Shuiyun brocade from Jiangnan. The style is the common gold-trimmed prince's robe. The texture is exquisite, but the color is earthy yellow and looks a bit earthy... I guess no prince or noble son would be willing to wear this when going out... Hexiang County Like a rich man...

Mrs. Lu was tepid, lowering her head and twirling her dragon eyes:

"What? Doesn't it look good?"

"...It looks good. What Aunt Lu gave me, how could it not look good?"

Xu Buling nodded with admiration, stood up and walked behind the screen, took off his snow-colored brocade robe and put on this unique young master's robe.

Rustling——

After a while, Xu Buling walked out from behind the screen and looked at the bronze mirror a few times.

He has been very talented in martial arts since childhood, and his figure is definitely not much different. With a face like an immortal, wearing this clothes, he looks like... a handsome rich man!

Xu Buring didn't care much about appearance, and tidied up his clothes calmly.

Mrs. Lu sat at the table and took a few glances. She had always dressed Xu Buling in an extremely elegant manner, but suddenly she was a little uncomfortable wearing such an outfit. After struggling for a moment, she raised her hand and said:

"That's all... I didn't choose the material well. Take it off and I'll go back and make another one."

"It's good, no need to bother..."

"Take off!"

Mrs. Lu patted the table with her small hand, Ruxing's eyes widened slightly.

Xu Buring had nothing to say. He honestly took out a white robe from the closet, put it on again behind the screen, and walked around in front of Mrs. Lu.

After Mrs. Lu looked at it carefully, she stood up, straightened Xu Buling's clothes, and said softly:

"Etiquette begins with proper dress. Men should pay attention to their appearance when going out..."

Xu Buling took a breath and looked down at Mrs. Lu with a dignified and serious expression. He wanted to reply, "This rustic robe is a gift from you. I pay great attention to appearance." However, Mrs. Lu must be aggrieved by saying this. He could only say with a smile:

"I know."

Mrs. Lu was then satisfied and nodded: "Go, don't stay in the palace for too long, be careful that the walls have ears."

Xu Buling hesitated slightly, walked a few steps towards the door, then turned back and said:

"Is there anything else?"

"No, go and come back quickly."

"..."

Xu Buling nodded, and after making sure that Mrs. Lu would not be angry if he left, he left the palace with doubts and went to meet the Queen Mother at night...
