Lan Fu brought Qiu Ruo along as they walked towards Fanli Residence. The birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant. Although it was already autumn, because the Situ Clan was located in Fanli Residence, it was named after the word "pear". It could be expected that there would be pear trees in the vicinity of Fanli Residence.
The other plants were quietly nearing the end of their blooming, but the pear tree was bearing fruit.
"Qiu Ruo, look at that pear tree. There's a huge pear! I think it must be delicious and moist!" Lan Fu felt hungry. When she saw this pear, she was tempted and couldn't move.
"Ce Fujin, we're going to Fanli Residence now. Are you sure you want to pick pears? If you delay too much time, the Situ family will attack you again. Besides…"
Qiu Ruo was indeed a servant girl who followed Lan Fu around. She already understood Lan Fu's intentions.
"Don't tell me you're going to say something inappropriate to me again. Since it's inappropriate, then go and take it off for me!”Lan Fu really wanted to eat this pear, so she rolled her eyes and pretended to be arrogant.
Qiu Ruo was dumbfounded as she looked at the pear that was high up in the air.
"What? Ce Fujin, I'm not a monkey, how can I climb up such a tall tree?”Qiu Ruo replied helplessly.
"Then that's it. I'll do it myself. Can you check if there's anyone around?”Lan Fu looked around carefully. It was still morning, and the sun had just risen, so there were only a few people on the road.
However, in order to be more assured, Lan Fu still let Qiu Ruo guard the side for him.
As for Lan Fu, she had been influenced since she was young. She had followed her father, who was a military officer, to practice martial arts. Wasn't picking a pear a trivial matter for her?
Lan Fu went up the tree to get the pear herself.
"Ce Fujin, you must be careful…Don't fall!”Qiu Ruo looked on worriedly. Lan Fu rolled up her long sleeves and started climbing the tree. Qiu Ruo had forgotten what Lan Fu had just told her-to be a good spy and guard the surroundings.
"Hey! Let's see where you can escape to!" Lan Fu was quick with his hands and eyes. With a grab, Lizi was safely and firmly held in his hand. However, Lizi was safe and sound. Lan Fu actually did not take good care of her body.
In the end, Lan Fu lost her balance and her body tilted to the side. It looked like she couldn't pull it back. Although Lan Fu forced her feet to land first, she still twisted her ankle because she was too high!
"Ah! Cefu Jin! Are you alright?" This scene scared Qiu Ruo so much that she quickly went forward to check on Lan Fu's injuries.
"I'm fine. It's just a sprain. It's just a small injury! Look at how ugly you look when you're worried!" Lan Fu and Qiu Ruo's expressions were almost in contrast. Lan Fu was just smiling, as if nothing had happened. However, Lan Fu felt a sharp pain coming from her ankle.
"Hey…what's wrong with Sister Lanfu? Why was my vision blurry just now when I saw my sister fall from above? Could it be that Sister Lanfu is on the tree?"
At this moment, Lanfu suddenly heard Mellor's voice from the side. She looked up and saw Mellor.
However, Lan Fu did not expect that the Situ family and Tuoba Qian would come along with the Mellor family...
Why was Tuoba Qian here? They seemed to have gathered together. Lan Fu recalled that when Huan Xia informed him, she didn't seem to have mentioned that His Highness was also there.
However, Mellor covered his mouth and face, revealing a surprised expression. It was very exaggerated, making Lanfu feel that her current situation was extremely awkward.
Lan Fu glanced at Qiu Ruo and seemed to be blaming her." How did you do this? No one could see it.
Qiu Ruo also felt the seriousness of the situation and lowered her head, not daring to say anything else. Her heart was filled with grievances. She had clearly cared too much about Murong Lanfu, that was why she was careless.
Lan Fu forced herself to prop herself up so that she could bow to Tuoba Qian and Situ Shi who were walking over.
"Good morning Your Highness, good morning Sister!" Every time she bent down, Lan Fu felt the pain in her ankle torture her, but she had no choice. Lan Fu had to pretend to be calm because she didn't want Situ and Mellor to laugh at her.
"What were you doing just now? Why are you on the tree?" Tuoba Qian had clearly seen the scene just now, but now he blurted out his own question or question.
After all, Lan Fu's actions were not elegant. His own residence had always been very well-educated and dignified. Even though Tuoba Qian had privately told Lan Fu that he did not mind the so-called etiquette, Tuoba Qian had to establish his dignity in front of so many people.
"Your highness…I saw a pear on the tree just now. It was big and round, and I thought it must be very delicious. I was thinking of your highness, so Lan Fu wanted to pluck this pear and give it to your highness to taste.”Lan Fu came up with a more appropriate excuse to stall Tuoba Qian.
"These are things that servants can do, why bother Ce Fujin? Although sister usually teaches us to keep a low profile, we can't trample on our own identity, right? The identity of the Ce Fujin is also related to the face of the prince!”
The Mellen clan didn't mind that the matter was big and had nothing to do with them, so they endlessly added fuel to the fire.
Lanfu was not afraid of the Mellor's attack. Instead, he retorted,""But how can the pears that a servant gave to wangye represent this concubine's love for wangye? Don't you think so, Sister Mellor? Not all Fujin can be as loyal as me!”
"Forget it! Watch your words and actions in the future! There were still some rules in the Imperial Residence! Now that we've gathered together, Situ Clan, I've already fulfilled your request. If you have anything to say, just say it quickly!”
Tuoba Qian waved his hand, indicating that this matter was over. Then, he turned to the Situ Clan and said.
"Yes, Your Highness. Everyone knew that the Mid-Autumn Festival was in two days. According to the usual practice, the Emperor would definitely hold a grand banquet to celebrate the happiness of the monarch and his subjects. His Highness would also be invited to participate in the banquet!
Your Highness can't go to the banquet alone. There must be a Fujin by your side to serve you. I remember that last year, I entered the palace with Your Highness. Logically speaking, it should be me this year. But this time, I don't want to go alone. I want to bring Sister Lan Fu to the banquet. What do you think, Your Highness?”
"This is it?" Tuoba Qian frowned as he looked at the Situ Clan. The Situ Clan had always been reliable. Why did they gather so many people just for a small matter? Why did they have to put aside their official business and come here?
Mrs. Situ just smiled and continued unhurriedly,"Wangye doesn't know. I don't know why, but a few days ago, I actually heard some servants discussing that Wangye didn't stay with Lan Fu on the wedding night.”
