Chapter 046: Return

Lu Jinyi was about to flee in a hurry, but the person who came opened her mouth with a little displeasure: "Why do you follow this official?" ”

Lu Jinyi raised her head and saw the appearance of the person who came, with angular outlines, thin and lightly pursed lips, sharp and deep eyes, and a tall but not rough body, like a goshawk at night, exuding a lonely and cold ...... It was Fu Shaotang she was looking for. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He also seemed a little surprised when he saw Lu Jinyi, "It's you?" ”

He and Lu Tang have always been incompatible, he came to the Lu Mansion without defense, and it is impossible for Lu Tang to be defenseless against him.

As soon as he entered the door, he felt that someone was following him, and at first he thought it was someone sent by Lu Tang to spy on him, but later he found out that it was not...... Lu Tang was rigorous, and of course it was impossible for the person sent to follow him knowing that he had discovered it.

But Fu Shaotang never thought that it would be her...... She wore a lotus lotus embroidered plum pattern skirt, combed her heart bun, and only used a plum blossom hairpin on the bun, and she was extremely plain.

She pursed her lips and looked at him with a bit of confusion in her eyes...... It's not like fear or panic, but a bit of a long-lost reunion.

Fu Shaotang didn't know why he felt like this, he felt very strange in his heart, and when he saw that she didn't speak, he asked again: "Do you have something to find this official?" The voice was a little softer.

Lu Jinyi retracted her gaze at this time, her feeling was really right, compared to her previous life, Fu Shaotang had changed too much...... is really the Lord Shangshu that everyone is afraid of, and this cold aura makes her feel a little scared.

She took a deep breath and bent down to salute him: "I have a few words I want to say to adults, I don't know if adults are convenient?" ”

Fu Shaotang glanced at her, no wonder he would admit his mistake that day, this demeanor was indeed somewhat similar to her...... He nodded, and there was a gazebo not far ahead, and he walked to it and sat down.

She followed behind him unhurriedly, but when she arrived at the pavilion, she was still standing, Fu Shaotang pointed to the seat opposite, "Sit down and talk." ”

Lu Jinyi sat down at this time, because it was Mrs. Lu's sixtieth birthday, there were melons and fruit snacks in the surrounding pavilions, and there was a small stove on the stone table, with water boiling on it.

Lu Jinyi thought about it, then scooped out some tea leaves from the porcelain jar, poured the boiled water into the purple clay pot, cooked a pot of tea with her own hands, poured a cup and handed it to him, "My lord, please use it." ”

Usually these things are naturally done by the maids, but Lu Jinyi has never brought the maids over, and the maids around him are standing far away, and they don't have the slightest intention of coming over to serve tea, so Lu Jinyi can only reluctantly do it.

It's not like she hasn't made tea before, although her craftsmanship is not very good, but ...... You can always drink it, right?

She also poured herself a cup, the weather was getting colder, and she didn't have a hand stove when she came out, this tea was just right to warm her hands.

Fu Shaotang picked up the tea and took a sip, brewing it like hers indiscriminately, it didn't taste very good, and he slowly put down the teacup.

“…… Coming for your brother's business? ”

Lu Jinyi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded her head, "My eldest brother studied hard for decades before he was admitted to the Jinshi, and he honed his qualifications in Jiangnan for three years before he was able to transfer back to Beijing...... The elders in the family all hope that he can find a better errand in Beijing so that he can start a family as soon as possible. ”

She looked at Fu Shaotang with a complicated expression: "I naturally don't understand the major affairs of the imperial court, but I don't agree with what the lord just said to my fifth uncle......

Her face was frank, without the embarrassment of eavesdropping on their words, Fu Shaotang unconsciously hooked the corners of his mouth, "Where do you disagree?" ”

He was too calm, and Lu Jinyi couldn't figure out whether he was happy or angry, or plucked up the courage to say: "As the saying goes, sin is not as good as relatives." The grievances between you and my fifth uncle shouldn't involve my eldest brother......"

Fu Shaotang nodded, "It turns out that you still know that there is a grudge between me and Lu Tang. He looked at her with interest, "But you dare to come here alone to see me, it seems that you care about your eldest brother very much." ”

He's obviously talking about him!

Lu Jinyi endured and endured, "Don't you think that the innocent is implicated like this, and it is really not a gentleman's doing?" ”

She seemed to be a little angry, her little face was flushed, and her eyes were slightly glaring at him, and she looked very cute.

Fu Shaotang smiled and said, "How could I ever say that I am a gentleman?" Even if I wanted to admit that I was a gentleman, those courtiers would not agree. If you dare to come to me, you should know what kind of person I am. ”

In the eyes of outsiders, he has always done nothing to achieve his goals, but he is not as high as Lu Tang's self-pretentiousness.

Lu Jinyi was really angry with him this time, he didn't talk like this in the past, he really became a powerful man, and even his original personality changed without a trace.

She raised her eyes and stared at Fu Shaotang, and suddenly said, "I don't know, how can I know what kind of person you are." ”

If he knew, he wouldn't have fallen in front of him like this.

What she said was very polite, not at all like an ordinary lady, what she should say to a Shangshu adult.

Fu Shaotang's eyes dimmed slightly, and his eyes became deeper when he looked at her.

Lu Jinyi was uncomfortable by him, so she simply stood up and said, "Since adults don't want to change their minds, then I have nothing to say." Leave. ”

She was very disappointed, why did Fu Shaotang, who had always been gentle and upright, become such a cold and impersonal appearance today.

She walked out without looking back, and Fu Shaotang's cold voice came from behind her: "If I promise not to embarrass my eldest brother, how should you thank me?" ”

Lu Jinyi paused and looked back at him with a little puzzlement.

Fu Shaotang got up and walked in front of her, his voice low: "You should know that the fight between me and your fifth uncle is not a day or two. Since your eldest brother is his nephew, he should have avoided suspicion, and I just wanted to sell your grandmother a favor and allow him to stay in Beijing...... But your fifth uncle obviously doesn't want to accept my affection. ”

What does he mean by that? Does it mean that it is not that he refuses Lu Jinglin to stay in the capital, but that Lu Tang refuses?

Lu Jinyi felt that her brain was a little insufficient, and she looked at him blankly, unable to say a word.

"However, since you have begged for me, I can help your eldest brother." Fu Shaotang stared at her, not knowing what he was thinking, "It's just that I've never traded at a loss." Since I have helped you, you should repay me with something. ”

The transfer of officials has always been in charge of the Ministry of Officials, and he is the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and he has never played cards according to common sense, so it is easy to let Lu Jinglin stay in the capital.

But he had to think about what trouble Lu Jinglin would bring him after he stayed...... Instead of letting him think about this, it is better to let him be far away, and out of sight is clear.

In fact, he had already thought about throwing Lu Jinglin into a place he couldn't see, so that he would fend for himself, and saying those words to Lu Tang was just to provoke him.
