Chapter 414: Cannon fodder merman in ancient Chinese literature 10

Lu Jingzhi stopped and looked at the hand she extended. He said casually:
“I don’t like sweet food.”
The hand was white and slender, with a beautiful pink color on the fingertips. There were teeth marks on the half piece of cake she was holding, which was small and cute.
The timid mermaid girl was not too wary of matters between men and women and just wanted to please him.
She also hoped that after Lu Jingzhi ate her pastries, he would not let her end up being cut open on the chopping board.
"Then I'll look for some non-sweet pastries..."
As Yun Wu said this, she wanted to take her hand back and search the small bag again.
However, the next second, Lu Jingzhi leaned over and ate the half piece of cake in her hand.
“The taste is okay.”
He said, and then continued walking forward. His pace was so slow that Yun Wu could easily keep up with him.
Lu Jingzhi carefully savored the half piece of slightly sweet pastry, turned his head slightly and saw Yun Wu walking beside him in an orderly manner with a small bag in her arms.
His eyes were fixed on her pink lips, but she was looking straight ahead and didn't notice.
Instead of trying the cakes, why not try...
The two men soon arrived at an open space in front of the stable, where Du Zhong, Du Song and others were waiting.
"Little Marquis."
When Du Zhong saw Lu Jingzhi coming back, he hurried forward to pay his respects, and Du Song followed behind him.
"Du Song and I have asked the vendors nearby, and they all said that Lord Tang is an honest official. Young Marquis, let's go with Lord Sun to see if there is any..."
Du Zhong spoke cryptically, as if he was afraid that Yun Wu might hear what he said.
"Nothing unusual, let's go back to the palace first."
Lu Jingzhi said lightly, looking at Yun Wu with a pair of clear eyes.
She was standing there obediently with her bag in her arms. In fact, she had her ears perked up to listen to their conversation. It was impossible that she didn't hear any important news.
On the way back, the carriage that Yun Wu was riding in encountered a minor problem.
"Young Marquis, the wheel of this carriage is broken. I have to go and change a carriage, but it will take some time..."
The coachman said, however, that it was going to rain soon, so they had to hurry back to the palace as soon as possible.
So if they had to wait for the coachman to drive another carriage, Yun Wu would be the only one waiting here.
"Young Marquis, why don't you let Miss Yun ride a horse? I will go pick out the one with the most docile character."
Du Song said with a worried look, he was afraid that the young marquis would abandon Miss Yun, a weak woman, here to wait for the carriage.
"But I can't ride a horse..."
Yun Wu, who was holding a small bag, spoke weakly, and her bright eyes looked timidly at Lu Jingzhi.
Is he going to abandon her...
"Du Zhong, bring Xue Ju here."
Lu Jingzhi gave the order, and Du Zhong then went to a separate stable and led Lu Jingzhi's mount in front of Lu Jingzhi.
Xueju was a handsome horse. Lu Jingzhi first touched its head, then turned to look at Yun Wu and said:
"Since you can't ride a horse, then come with me."
Yun Wu was a little afraid of the horse, but she still mustered up the courage to go forward.
Du Zhong and Du Song watched helplessly as Xue Ju, who usually ignored everyone except Lu Jingzhi, actually took the initiative to get close to Yun Wu? !
Xueju took the initiative to rub against Yunwu. Although it scared her a little, she still reached out her hand carefully and touched its head.
Lu Jingzhi couldn't help but frowned slightly when he looked at Xue Ju, then he pulled the reins to pull Xue Ju's head away from Yun Wu.
He reached out his hand to hold Yun Wu's arm, and easily carried her to sit on the horse's back.
"It's so high..."
Yun Wu sat stiffly on the horse, still feeling a little scared.
Lu Jingzhi held her slender ankle to help her adjust the stirrup, then he climbed onto the horse and sat behind Yun Wu.
"Back to the palace."
Lu Jingzhi said lightly, and put his hands around Yun Wu's body and grabbed the rope that was driving the horse.
The little mermaid with a faint fragrance on her body was sitting in front of him, swaying from time to time as if she was about to lean into his arms.
Lu Jingzhi lowered his eyes and glanced at Yun Wu. Perhaps because his hot breath was right next to her ears, her ears turned red.
What does it look like? Lu Jingzhi thinks it looks like a red fruit, which makes people want to take a bite and taste whether it is sweet or not...
They chose a remote alley as their return route and met almost no one on the road. Soon they returned to the palace.
It soon became dark and it began to rain again. Perhaps because she had walked too much during the day, Yun Wu enjoyed her dinner very much.
After dinner, she slipped back to her bedroom alone.
After carefully closing the door, Yun Wu dared to take out the folded letter from her sleeve.
This was given to her by a maidservant whom she had never met before when she was in Wanshan. When their eyes met, Yun Wu knew that the person was planted by Lord Tang.
Yun Wu quickly opened the letter and read it. Although she was a mermaid, she could probably understand most of the words.
Perhaps it was because the elders of the mermaid tribe had also emerged from the sea and took out stolen books to teach her since she was a child. It was originally because the life of the mermaids was too boring.
"Remember not to expose your plan. While you are being intimate with the Marquis, take advantage of his happiness and ask Lu Jingzhi if he has any doubts about today's inspection..."
Yun Wu recognized the words above very slowly, and then she was in trouble again.
Asking for information during intimacy? When is intimacy?
She seemed to understand that Lu Jingzhi helped her change from a fishtail to legs which was a "kiss". Hot was probably hot, and then she could ask out loud at that time.
Yun Wu followed the instructions written on the letter and carefully placed it in the candlestick and burned it.
Mermaids are most afraid of fire, so she dodged and hid far away.
Just as Yun Wu was thinking about what to do, she suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.
"Miss Yun, I have asked someone to bring in the bathtub."
"come in."
Yun Wu said, and then she breathed a sigh of relief after taking a look at the letter that had been burned to ashes.
Because her legs would gradually turn back into fish tails after touching water, she was still thinking about how to hide it from Qingluo.
In the end, she didn't even need to say anything. After Qingluo put away all the things needed for bathing, she bowed and left the bedroom.
But this is convenient for Yun Wu.
She undid her clothes with somewhat awkward movements, and after she had taken off her clothes, she got into the bathtub.
At this moment, Lu Jingzhi suddenly walked over from the main hall on the other side of the secret door.
He was wearing a green sleeveless shirt and his long hair was half tied up, as if he had just taken a shower and changed his clothes.
"Young Marquis?"
Yun Wu grabbed the edge of the bathtub with both hands, blinked and looked at him. Her hair was a little messy because she had tied it herself.
"Did the young marquis tell Qingluo not to stay and serve while he was bathing?"
"Um……"
Lu Jingzhi responded indifferently, then took over Qingluo's job, adding hot water to the bathtub without looking away.
"You will turn back into a fish tail when you touch water. If an outsider stays with you, I'm afraid his identity will be exposed. After careful consideration, Qingluo doesn't need to follow you when you bathe in the future... I'll do it."
"Then let's..."
Yun Wu said something in a low voice, but Lu Jingzhi didn't hear it clearly. He looked up at her and motioned for her to say it again.
Yun Wu lay on the edge of the bathtub, her fair cheeks flushed by the heat. She pointed to her lips and said:
"I say... let's make out."
Then she could follow the plan and find out the news and ask Lu Jingzhi whether he had any suspicions.
