“Cou…cousin, I’m glad that you are fine . Then…then I’m leaving now . ” Mu Nanzhi stood up hurriedly and hasted to run out .

“Your cloak . ” Lu Zhishan shouted behind her .

Mu Nanzhi had cursed herself badly in her heart, but she had to go back to get the cloak and dressed herself well . She peeked at Lu Zhishan and stuttered with her flushed face, “Cou . . cousin, have a good rest . I will come to see you a…again when I am available . ”

Lu Zhishan didn’t say a word, but just smiled at her . Mu Nanzhi felt that her face was hotter, so she opened the curtain and went out at once . With the cold wind blowing on her face suddenly, she just felt it wasn’t so scorching .

Song Fu kept standing under the porch .  Seeing Mu Nanzhi getting out, he sheltered her with an umbrella immediately, “It’s snowing heavily outside . Let me send you out, infanta . ”

Mu Nanzhi gave Song Fu a ferocious stare, “You are a spy! A ‘yenta’!”

Song Fu, “…”

…

It was on January 28 in lunar calendar of the eighteenth year of Jiasheng .

The emperor decreed to marry Wei, the eldest granddaughter of the superior Prime Minister, to the fourth prince Lu Zhiyue . The wedding was scheduled in April .

…

It was on February 2 in lunar calendar of the eighteenth year of Jiasheng .

Empress Xu and the second prince Lu Zhichuan were hit by a falling stone when going to Mount Xiang for hiking . Even though the second prince tried his best to push Empress Xu away, both of them were injured badly .

The right foot of the empress was. .h.i.t by the falling stone, so that she fainted from pain at that moment . Lu Zhichuan’s situation was much better than the empress’ .  Except a bad laceration left by a rubble on his face, he didn’t have any other wound . However, they got troubles again on the way back to the capital city . No one knew why the imperial horses took fright, and one of the personal bodyguards of the second prince was stamped by the horse’s feet . It was lucky that the bodyguard dodged the most deadly attack with his agility . But then again, if someone was unlucky, he would have his teeth plugged by drinking water . The bodyguard was really in bad luck, as he was coincidentally trampled by another horse on his private part, which made him fall into a coma immediately . Although his life had been saved later, he had to change his job from a bodyguard to an eunuch .

At that night, all the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital were extremely busy . The empress’ right foot was badly mangled .  The worst was that her phalanx was smashed by the falling stone . Even though Qin Lv was a highly-skilled doctor, he could do nothing but pick out the splinters carefully, and applied some ointment to her finger .

Empress Xu’s right foot became a piece of rotten meat . She must be disable even if she could recuperate well in the future . The best for her was to be able to stand up in the future .

Lu Zhichuan was much better than his mother .  While, with a deep scar extending from the left frontal to the right chin on his face, he looked very terrible .

From then on, everyone in the capital city would feel it was pity when they mentioned the second prince Lu Zhichuan, who was handsome as a faery before, but now he didn’t want to go out without the mask .

The saddest one was the daughter of Wei Family, who had been decreed to marry to the fourth prince four days ago . The emperor was about to knight the fourth prince as the Crown Prince, and she would definitely be the Crown Princess . Who could expect that now everyone in the capital city said that Wei’s bore an ominous fate, which was not only bad for her mother-in-law, but also bad for her husband’s brothers, as well as the bodyguards . If not, why did the empress and the second prince suffer so much right after the engagement?
