Jin Lu is skeptical.

But looking at her mother's confident expression, a glimmer of hope ignited in her heart.

Then she remembered something again and said, "By the way, my mother said before that Brother Zhong Ci has already cleaned up and moved to the princess's mansion? If so, what other chance can I have?"

"Hmph, don't worry. He can't live in the princess's mansion."

"Why is this?" Jin Lu was surprised.

"Silly girl, you are still young after all. You have seen that Princess Rouzhen. Do you think she is such an easy person to forgive and compromise?"

Jin Lu thought of Princess Rouzhen's appearance and whispered: "To be fair, Princess Rouzhen has become a little fatter and haggard, but she is indeed a noble and proud person. I am a woman, and I can see that although she looks gentle, she will not surrender or settle easily in her bones."

Aunt Jin sneered: "That's true. What's more, yesterday, Zhong Ci went to the princess's house for Princess Qingzhi to make trouble. Today, he moved back if he wanted to move back? He thought too beautifully."

"So, Brother Zhong Ci can't return to the princess's mansion for the time being?"

"In my opinion, I can't go back for ten days and half a month. Unless he can do anything, he can make Princess Rouzhen happy and forgive her for a while."

Jin Lu sighed: "Brother Zhong Ci is also a proud and demanding face. How could he bow his head so easily?"

"Not only that, he was willing to accept you this time. Now he is forced by the royal family. As a man, can he be happy in his heart?"

"cannot."

"If you are not happy, you must have resentment in your heart. He may be able to apologize and ask for forgiveness, but he absolutely has no patience to think of any good way to please the princess."

"Mom is right." Jin Lu couldn't help but smile, "Actually, my daughter can see that Brother Zhong Ci was forced to press his head, and he was also depressed and aggrieved in his heart."

"How can this not be frustrated? Speaking of which, Li Zhongci is also well-known and has the most talented young talents. His other colleagues have three wives and four concubines, embracing each other, and having a happy life. Only he is not only suppressed by the princess, but even a small matter like taking a concubine will be called over by the emperor to scold him. Where can the man's face be put?"

When Jin Lu heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little pity for Li Zhongci: "Brother Zhongci is really pitiful."

Aunt Jin smiled and said, "Don't look at Princess Rouzhen, but after all, she is a legitimate princess. She is precious in gold and jade, so she will definitely not serve others. Your brother Zhong Ci is probably no different from a servant in front of the princess."

Jin Lu sighed as she heard this.

"So, Lu'er, you must show your twelve points of ability. This man is just that, who doesn't like gentleness and love?"

"Mom, I remember it all."

"You clean up first, don't be so messy. Which man can like it?" Aunt Jin shook her head, "I'll prepare too. After all, let this matter be done."

After Aunt Jin left, Jin Lu ordered someone to fetch water and take a shower and dress up carefully.

As expected, Li Zhongci came back in the afternoon.

Together with the clothes and books he brought.
