Chapter 196 Hero saves beauty a moment later Two people were sitting in the private room on the second floor, and the guards were standing outside. "Your Highness the Third Prince invited me up here. What's the important matter?" Ji Huashang smiled and said, "I heard that Lord Lu is investigating the assassination of the royal sister. I wonder how the case is going?" Lu Hanyang didn’t know why Ji Huashang invited him, so he just said calmly. "There are eyebrows." Hearing this, Ji Huashang's eyes flickered slightly: "Oh? I wonder who the assassin is? Why did he assassinate my sister?" When Lu Hanyang heard this, his expression remained unchanged. "Your Highness should know my rules. I will not reveal anything about the case to anyone until the facts are clear." "Ah, look at my brain."
There was a hint of displeasure in Ji Huashang's eyes, but she pretended to smile. There was no expression on Lu Hanyang's calm face. He stood up politely and said indifferently. "If your Highness has nothing else to say, I will take my leave." Ji Huashang's expression changed slightly, and she smiled gently, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave, Lord Lu? I still have something to discuss with you." Lu Hanyang's eyes were cold and his voice was steady: "I still need to return to the palace to report to Your Majesty. I cannot waste any time. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Ji Huashang narrowed her eyes gently, and the corners of her lips curved upwards: "Since you are going back to the palace to report, please do not keep the Queen Mother waiting for too long. Lord Lu, take care, I will not see you off." "I resign!" Lu Hanyang bowed, stepped back, and left. The smile on Ji Huashang's face behind him faded. An Yi said in a cold voice: "Your Highness, this Lord Lu really doesn't take you seriously." Ji Huashang chuckled and slowly picked up the tea on the table and took a sip. "Lu Hanyang is an extraordinary person. Although he is a foreigner, he is deeply trusted by the Queen Mother. His ability is unmatched by others. If you can win him over, win him over. If not, don't offend him easily." Although An Yi didn't quite understand what His Highness said, she knew that what His Highness said was right. As long as that person was still useful to Her Highness, she would not act rashly. "Yes, Your Highness." An Yi glanced at him casually and was slightly stunned: "Your Highness, it's Young Master Chang Sun." Hearing this, Ji Huashang paused holding the teacup and looked over sideways. Among the bustling crowd downstairs, there was a man dressed in white, with a graceful face like a fairy, skin as white as snow, and an elegant and noble temperament. The servant boy beside him followed by his side, protecting his young master from being bumped by the crowd. However, with so many people, some collisions are inevitable. Just then, a few children who were playing and running accidentally bumped into Changsun Wuyou.
The servant boy beside him turned pale and exclaimed, "Sir!" Just when Changsun Wuyou was about to be knocked off balance and fall, a clear and gentle voice came to his ears. "Be careful~" There was a hand on my waist, my body tightened, and I fell into an embrace filled with ambergris. Changsun Wuyou was stunned, looked up, and met a pair of eyes as black and shiny as ink jade, and was stunned. "Your Highness?" "Are you okay?" A gentle voice came from above his head, and Changsun Wuyou came back to his senses in shock. Thinking of the ambiguous behavior of both of them at this moment, he panicked a little and quickly withdrew from Ji Huashang's arms. He bowed respectfully and said, "Wuyou greets His Majesty the Third Prince!" Seeing that Changsun Wuyou deliberately kept his distance, Ji Huashang didn't say anything. She raised her hand to support him with a gentle smile on her lips. "Young Master Changsun, please don't be polite. You and I are almost a family. From now on, I will have to call you brother-in-law. It would seem distant if I were to perform a formal ceremony." Upon hearing this, Changsun Wuyou's face turned pale, he lowered his eyes slightly, tightened his hands on his sleeves, concealed the bitterness in his heart, and forced a smile. "Third Prince, etiquette cannot be abolished." "Besides, I have not yet entered the East Palace with Your Highness the Princess, so I am not worthy of being called your brother-in-law."
