Chapter 180 The show begins
Although Xie Lingxiao was puzzled, he did not hesitate. He quickly asked Ling Feng to stop.
"Xuan'er, what happened?" Xie Lingxiao asked.
Shen Jingxuan raised the corners of her lips: "Ah Xiao, let's not go back home, let's go watch a good show."
It has been delayed for so long, and I don’t know where it is now.
Xie Lingxiao looked at Shen Jingxuan suspiciously, but saw Shen Jingxuan pulling him to lift the curtain and get off the carriage.
Shen Jingxuan put her arms around Xie Lingxiao's neck: "Ah Xiao, let's go to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
After saying this, Xie Lingxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, curled his lips and smiled: "Okay."
Xie Lingxiao held Shen Jingxuan in his arms for a few jumps before disappearing in front of Ling Feng, leaving Ling Feng alone, disheveled in the wind.
What was going on? His master was only concerned about his future princess and didn't even tell him what to do before leaving.
If I go back to the palace without my master's order, I don't know whether I should catch up with him or stay where I am and wait for orders.
After hesitating for a long time, Ling Feng finally decided to go back to the palace and wait, then drove away.
Not long after Ling Feng left, another carriage drove out of the palace gate.
The carriage was moving fast and hurriedly, and in a moment, it was hidden in the moonlight.
The full moon was setting in the west, and the breeze swayed the treetops, dancing with it.
Xie Lingxiao and Shen Jingxuan hid in a big tree, not knowing where to go first.
"Axiao, when something like this happened, they should not be in Lu Jinxuan's yard, right?" Shen Jingxuan asked.
Xie Lingxiao pondered carefully: "Why don't we go and take a look first? Or are they in the Prime Minister's study?"
If an ordinary family encountered such a major event, they would definitely gather the whole family in the front hall to discuss the matter.
But to their surprise, when they hurried over, the front hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion was pitch black.
The entire Prime Minister's Mansion was unusually quiet, as if nothing had happened.
Looking at the quiet front hall, Shen Jingxuan even suspected that Lu Jinxuan did not mention what happened at the palace banquet after returning home.
After all, it was already late at night, and even if the imperial decree to grant the marriage was announced, it would be tomorrow.
After thinking for a while, Shen Jingxuan said, "Ah Xiao, could it be that Lu Jinxuan went back home and rested. She didn't tell us what happened during the day?"
"Why don't we go to Lu Jinxuan's yard first and see if she is in the room."
"Okay." Xie Lingxiao responded, picked up Shen Jingxuan and left.
With the experience from last time, the two of them arrived at Lu Jinxuan's roof with ease.
Shen Jingxuan gently lifted the tile like last time, but she didn't see that Xie Lingxiao's cheeks had already turned red.
Her hand had just lifted up the tile, but before she could move it away, Xie Lingxiao grabbed her hand and put the tile back.
Shen Jingxuan looked at Xie Lingxiao in confusion.
She was clearly about to lift it up and see what was going on in the room, so why wasn't she allowed to see it?
In the moonlight, Shen Jingxuan still discovered that Xie Lingxiao was unusual.
Seeing Shen Jingxuan staring at him closely, Xie Lingxiao averted his gaze and looked elsewhere.
After thinking about it, he turned back and pointed at Shen Jingxuan's ear.
Shen Jingxuan suddenly realized, calmed down, and listened carefully to the sounds in the room.
The ambiguous and lingering sounds of two people continued to be heard in the room.
Lu Jinxuan's moans rose and fell, accompanied by Lu Zhenyu's unbearable words and the irregular breathing of the two...
A breeze blew by, causing their hair to tangle with each other.
Shen Jingxuan stood there like a statue, motionless.
The sounds coming from the room kept echoing in her ears, making her feel a little overwhelmed for a moment.
If she remembered correctly, she saw it with her own eyes and heard it with her own ears the last time she visited the Prime Minister's Mansion at night, right?
Shen Jingxuan didn't expect that Lu Zhenyu and Lu Jinxuan would be so crazy.
She didn't know whether it was a coincidence or they were partying every night.
Xie Lingxiao looked at Shen Jingxuan's embarrassed look and instantly forgot what he looked like just now.
He suddenly moved closer to Shen Jingxuan: "Xuan'er, does it sound good?"
The warm breath sprayed on her ears and cheeks, and Shen Jingxuan came back to her senses in panic.
But because Xie Lingxiao suddenly came closer, he fell backwards in panic.
Xie Lingxiao stretched out his long arms, pulled her into his arms, and turned to leave.
Shen Jingxuan's face flushed red, and she buried her cheek in Xie Lingxiao's chest for a long time and refused to look up.
Coming to the dark place, Xie Lingxiao couldn't help but laugh.
He had not expected that Shen Jingxuan would be so anxious to watch the fun that she would directly lift the tile and neglect to listen to see if there was anyone in the room first.
Xie Lingxiao leaned close to Shen Jingxuan's ear and asked, "Are you still going to watch it?"
Shen Jingxuan was secretly annoyed, as if he was talking as if if she wanted to see Xie Lingxiao, he would take her back to see him.
If she said she wanted to see it, Xie Lingxiao would definitely not let her go easily, right?
The shaking chest let Shen Jingxuan know that Xie Lingxiao was in a good mood at the moment.
But if he continues to laugh, not only will his dignity be saved, but he will also not be able to enjoy the fun tonight.
She lightly hit Xie Lingxiao's chest: "Have you laughed enough?"
Xie Lingxiao looked at her shy appearance and rubbed Shen Jingxuan's lips: "Well, don't smile anymore."
But he couldn't let go of the raised corners of his lips.
Shen Jingxuan felt the softness on his cherry lips for a moment, and the blush on her pretty face grew, and she leaned hard into Xie Lingxiao's arms.
Xie Lingxiao stopped teasing Shen Jingxuan and carried her to the prime minister's study.
Unlike the darkness elsewhere, the prime minister's study was brightly lit.
Shen Jingxuan stared at the study with shining eyes, and gently pulled Xie Lingxiao's sleeve in anticipation.
Thinking that Lu Zhenyu and Lu Jinxuan were not in the study, Shen Jingxuan felt confused.
Xie Lingxiao lowered his eyes to look at him, then lightly stepped on his feet and came to the top of the study.
The moment Shen Jingxuan landed, she skillfully lifted the tiles.
She gently moved the tile away, and the dim light in the study seemed to be released instantly, shining along the tiles.
Shen Jingxuan looked into the study against the light.
When she saw who was inside clearly, Shen Jingxuan's eyes widened slightly and she looked at Xie Lingxiao in shock.
After looking at each other, they continued to stare at the two people in the room.
Prime Minister Lu Zhong stared at the empress dressed as a guard with a look of surprise on her face.
"My lady, why are you dressed like this?"
In the past, the Queen often returned to the Prime Minister's Residence, but she always behaved in a dignified and noble manner, showing the dignity of a Queen.
It has never happened before like today.
The queen was anxious: "Brother, I left the palace secretly."
After the palace banquet ended and the young masters and ladies left the palace one after another, the palace gates were closed.
She was able to leave the palace because she had made preparations in advance.
"Why did you sneak out of the palace? What big thing happened?"
When the queen heard Lu Zhong's words, she felt wronged and tears silently rolled down her cheeks.
She cried and recounted what had happened during the day.
Lu Zhong said unhappily, "How can they get married? Isn't this nonsense?"
"You knew the whole story, why didn't you stop it?"
Seeing the queen crying like a pear blossom in the rain, he couldn't bear to say more complaints, so he could only hug the queen in his arms.
Shen Jingxuan suddenly widened her eyes and looked at Xie Lingxiao in disbelief.
But he saw his dark eyes narrowed and looked at himself.
