Extra three

On the bustling and busy streets, Lu Shaoyun, who rode his beloved horse all the way to the Dingguo Mansion and passed by a teahouse, had to stop because of a sudden accident. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

On the second floor of the teahouse, near the window, two groups of people who somehow started to fight threw the square table with the teapot and the stool out of the window between their fists and kicks. And under the falling square table and the boiling tea spilled from the teapot, there were people who had no time to dodge the flying danger.

It was impossible to see a child who was only five or six years old being directly hit in the head by the square table, and Lu Shaoyun, who immediately stood up on horseback, jumped towards the child with a little foot, and then reached out to catch the square table.

And the tea that was splashed on the two young women wearing gauze scarves with a teapot was taken by Lu Shaoyun, who was holding a table leg, on the table, and then put the teapot and the square table on the ground together.

"Thank you Childe for the rescue, thank you Childe for the rescue." Holding the small hat of the child who was obviously swept away by the cold wind, the young mother, who did not expect that her son had almost encountered mortal danger after just a few steps away, turned back to her son, and bowed to Lu Shaoyun with her child even though she was grateful but afraid.

At the same time, the two guards of the two young ladies wearing gauze scarves and luxuriously dressed men rushed into the teahouse, intending to ask for justice and an explanation from the two groups of people who had just gathered to make trouble and almost hurt innocent people.

Waving goodbye to the young mother who was scared to tears, and the boy who didn't react because it happened too quickly and suddenly, Lu Shaoyun, who turned to his beloved horse, was stopped by a weak female voice before turning over and getting on the horse.

Turning his head to look at the two women who had just been rescued by him, although he glanced over and did not find the Pei family's family emblem on the carriage behind them, which they had just walked down from, Lu Shaoyun, who was eager to skin and tear Pei Huanting apart in his previous life, still saw who they were from the figures of the two at a glance.

"Pei Huanting, and her best handkerchief, Miss Deng?"

Lu Shaoyun, who regretted it in his heart, only wished that he hadn't saved them at all, and said silently in his heart: "I was careless." Originally, I thought that as long as I saw the Pei family's carriage in this life, I would take a detour, regardless of whether it was a startled horse or an overturn, and I would not have anything to do with Pei Huanting anymore. It's a pity that providence makes people, some things that are destined to happen, they will definitely happen no matter what! ”

"Engong, if I didn't recognize the wrong person, you should be the fifth prince of the Dingguo Mansion, right?" Miss Deng, who brought her friend forward and gave a salute to Lu Shaoyun with Pei Huanting, after thanking her, in order to facilitate her family, he came to thank him one day, so he spoke out to confirm Lu Shaoyun's identity.

"Yesterday you entered the city with the army, and then when the street waved to your fiancée, I happened to be sitting in the private room on the third floor of a certain streetside restaurant located in that section, watching the soldiers entering the city. So if I didn't recognize the wrong person, you should be Lu Tingxuan, who just returned to the capital yesterday, right? ”

“...... Yes, I am Lu Tingxuan. Originally, I just wanted to leave here as soon as possible under the condition of hiding my true identity, so as not to get entangled with Pei Huanting more entanglements, but unfortunately I didn't wait for him to hide his name and identity, Miss Deng, who already knew who he was, spoke out to expose the facts he wanted to cover up.

So, Lu Shaoyun, who couldn't avoid it and had to face him head-on, hugged his fist slightly and said: "Today's matter is completely a gesture and not enough to worry about, and I hope the two young ladies don't have to take it to heart." If you are reluctant to go, and you must let your father and brother thank you, then it will be enough for you to send us blessings when I tie the knot next spring. ”

Lu Shaoyun, who thought that if he said it so simply and clearly, Pei Huanting should not fight his idea again, at the moment of a slight mislook, he saw the emotion he was looking forward to from Pei Huanting's eyes - it was a girl who was just beginning to fall in love, and she didn't have time to spend time and energy on watering and nourishing it little by little, so she had to cut off the sprouts in her heart that sprouted because of the love between men and women.

"Really? Are you and your fiancée getting married next spring? Yes, after all, you have already asked for the decree of marriage yesterday! She nodded approvingly between self-questions and answers, and Miss Deng Jia, who didn't notice the loss of her friends around her, lowered her eyebrows and said: "Congratulations to Mr. Lu, next spring, Ting'er and I will definitely send someone to send a festive gift on your big day." ”

"Then thank you, two girls." He was not at all interested in the congratulatory gifts offered by the two people in front of him, hugged his fists again with a polite smile, and then he no longer wanted to stay here and delay time, facing these two people he didn't want to see at all, Lu Shaoyun quickly turned around, turned over and left.

Holding the reins on the way home, although he believed that the holy decree he asked for yesterday would definitely be able to keep Pei Huanting out of the gate of the Lu family, Lu Shaoyun, who still had a little worry and anxiety in his heart, finally decided to take the initiative to urge Pei Huanting to make a marriage contract with other men as soon as possible, so as to completely nip the madness of her previous life in the bud.

In the previous life, after Pei Huanting and Princess Shengping were praised as "Kyoto Shuangjiao", there was an endless stream of people who went to Prime Minister Pei's mansion to ask for relatives, and Lu Shaoyun remembered it very clearly. Among these people, Jiang Yicheng, who is paranoid and strong to the extent that no one can compare, Lu Shaoyun still remembers him vividly.

"Putting these two madmen in the previous life against each other should be the best destination for them! As the saying goes, things gather like and people are grouped, and the wicked still have to be handed over to the wicked to grind! ”

Thinking like this in his heart, he thinks that as long as he feels that Pei Huanting is still young and has not yet pursued her, so he chooses Jiang Yicheng, who is temporarily unmoving, to launch an offensive and actively plan for his life's events, then Pei Huanting, who is strictly guarded, will not find a chance again, and Lu Shaoyun, who is entangled with him, has already thought about what he should do next.

Jiang Yicheng went out to socialize and went in and out of the restaurant and tea shop a lot of times, so as long as he could grasp his whereabouts, spend money on two people's manpower, and knock on the side to spread what happened today to his ears in the form of other people's after-dinner conversations, then naturally he would not be worried that he would not react.

Of course, the words that reached his ears Lu Shaoyun had to be carefully considered, after all, he didn't want to be recognized by Jiang Yicheng as a rival in love while getting rid of Pei Huanting, so he hated him.

Therefore, properly modify the rhetoric, so that Jiang Yicheng understands that Pei Huanting has reached the age where she has reached the beginning of love, and she can have a good impression of a strange man because of a heroic rescue of beauty, so he can no longer wait, but can directly let go of his hands and feet to chase after him, so that it is okay.

"As long as Jiang Yicheng is anxious and feels that 'if he doesn't do it again, it will be too late', then I believe that with his obsession with Pei Huanting for many years and his nimble hands and feet, there should be no problems in this marriage between Jiang and Pei's two families."

Lu Shaoyun, who can rest at home until the first month of next year, and then has a lot of time to perfect and implement the plan he just conceived, really didn't need to rush this afternoon, so he hurriedly went to find out Jiang Yicheng's whereabouts.

So, Lu Shaoyun, who returned home smoothly and was thinking about the planned plan to visit the Xia family at night, focused all his attention on how to deal with his future father-in-law.

Xia Jingzhi and Xia Chaoyang died in the fire in the East Market during the Lantern Festival in the Year of Yichou, this incident happened before Lu Shaoyun and Xia Shuanghan got married in their previous life, so Lu Shaoyun, who had not been able to get along with his future father-in-law and brother-in-law at all in the past years, it was obviously impossible to say that he was not nervous about tonight's visit at all.

In the east of the capital, at the gate of the Xia family in Shuanghe Lane, after the two doors in front of him opened, Lu Shaoyun, who took a deep breath and followed his grandfather to the main hall of the Xia family, was facing Xia Jingzhi, who was expressionless, with no anger or joy on his face, and couldn't see what he was thinking at the moment, and then spoke throughout the whole process, he was very nervous and worried.

“...... Uncle Xia, that's how it happened. Concise, clear and coherent explained the reasons why he would cut first and then prelude without the permission of his elders to ask for a decree in front of the emperor one by one, and Lu Shaoyun, who had already sincerely apologized to Xia Jingzhi for his recklessness and presumptuousness at the beginning, the only thing he could do now was to wait for the "verdict" of his future father-in-law.

"Ting Xuan, to be honest, when I saw that holy decree yesterday inexplicably, I was really angry at your rudeness. After all, for so many years, since you joined the army, you have never contacted us through letters. So, in the face of your abrupt approach yesterday, both Frost and Cold felt deeply despised by you. It's just ...... now"

It is undeniable that Lu Shaoyun's eloquent exposition is indeed reasonable, and Xia Jingzhi, who is also satisfied with his positive and sincere attitude of admitting his mistakes, has now basically understood his approach and is no longer angry with him.

So, after only listening to a moment of silence, he softened his tone and said, "Now, considering that Tingxuan's intentions for Shuang Han are indeed genuine, and you are willing to exchange your wealth and official position for an unshakable promise and guarantee for her, it is impossible for me to criticize you anymore." After all, I don't think it's possible to find another man who is as good to Frost as you are. So ......"

"So, uncle, are you willing to accept me as your future son-in-law?" His eyes shone with urgency and eagerness, and Lu Shaoyun, who was extremely eager to be recognized and blessed by Xia Jingzhi for this, was overjoyed after a while.

"Don't get too happy." It can be seen effortlessly from Lu Shaoyun's smiling appearance that he really cares about Xia Shuanghan, so Xia Jingzhi, who is very relieved that his daughter can have this good son-in-law, also said with a smile: "After all, you must know that I can't be the master of Shuanghan's intentions." Therefore, if you can't get her to marry you willingly, then even if I accept you, it will be in vain. ”

"Uncle Xia, don't worry, I will definitely let Frost Nod." Lu Shaoyun, who safely crossed the hurdle of meeting his future father-in-law, exhaled softly, raised his eyes and captured the encouraging smile on his grandfather Lu Xiaoqing's face, "Continue to work hard and strive to turn the 'marriage on the chosen date' on the holy decree into reality as soon as possible".

And looking at Lu Shaoyun, who was extremely confident, Xia Jingzhi, who had worried a lot about his daughter's marriage, also felt that his heart had finally fallen to the ground. "Lu Tingxuan's self-confidence is not in vain, after all, if Shuang Han is really dissatisfied with him and this marriage, then she should go to the Dingguo Mansion with a horse whip this morning and ask for an explanation for herself."

"Today, the reason why Shuang Han will stand still, not angry or irritable, and just wait quietly for Lu Shaoyun to come to explain and apologize is entirely because she is actually more satisfied with this marriage." With such a judgment in his heart, Xia Jingzhi understood and further accepted Lu Shaoyun so quickly. "There's no way, what the daughter likes, the father should give his full support after checking for him and determining that the man is reliable!"

didn't know that his visit last night caused "Xia Shuanghan didn't go to him this morning to ask for an explanation", and Lu Shaoyun, who played such a big role invisibly in tonight's conversation, quickly crossed the threshold after asking Xia Jingzhi for permission and found Xia Shuanghan who was playing games with his younger brother in the courtyard behind the main hall.

On the surface, Xia Shuanghan, who had been playing games with his younger brother, but in fact had been paying attention to the conversation in the main hall, sent his younger brother back to his own house when Lu Shaoyun came to the courtyard with crooked eyebrows.

"Grandpa Guo is still talking to my father in the main hall, what are you doing running out?" The warm glow of the lanterns hanging in the cloister reflected the cold white cheeks of the summer frost. Trembling his eyebrows, his eyes fluttered and he was embarrassed to look directly at Lu Shaoyun's Xia Shuanghan, and he quickly got an answer.

"The marriage between you and me, Uncle Xia has already nodded and agreed. And the reason why I came here to see you is also with Uncle Xia's consent. As he spoke, he leaned into Xia Shuanghan a little bit, and after the distance between the two was close enough, he stretched out his hand, and Lu Shaoyun, who held his wife's softness into his hand, was rightfully righteous and arrogant on his face.

"Since the elders of both sides have nodded and agreed to this marriage, only you, as the party concerned, have not nodded, then I can naturally only focus on you in order to achieve the ultimate goal as soon as possible!"

Feeling that the restless right hand that belonged to Xia Shuanghan that he was holding was not really determined to get rid of him Lu Shaoyun took a step forward again, and went straight to Xia Shuanghan's side and said: "Shuanghan, you said that you don't know me at all, so I don't know if you really want to be husband and wife with me, which I can understand." ”

"So, in order for you to get to know me as soon as possible, I hope that you will be able to integrate me into your life little by little in the future. Since I don't need to go up for the time being, I have a lot of time every day until February next year, when I have been at home on vacation. So, during this time, if you have activities like going out and playing with the rising sun, I want you to get me involved. ”

"When you go out to play, you can take an extra person with you, which is not a difficult requirement for a strong man. What's more, with an adult man with martial arts by his side, it will definitely be safer wherever he goes. Thinking like this in his heart, Xia Shuanghan, who was already willing to have more contact with Lu Shaoyun and enhance mutual understanding between them in his subconscious, nodded silently after thinking about it for a while.

"Of course, if you are willing, I hope that you will also be able to actively integrate into my life. Like going with me to meet my friends, or volunteering to do some needlework for me. ”

Lu Shaoyun, who firmly held Xia Shuanghan's hand and stood under the corridor with her and chatted, only feeling that because of the existence of his lover, the winter nights were no longer so cold, and soon in late November, he ushered in the opportunity to travel with Xia Shuanghan.

On the holiday day of Yangcheng School in late November, Xia Chaoyang, who went to the Chen family's hot spring villa on the outskirts of Beijing at the invitation of the Chen brothers, got into the carriage out of the city with his closest sister and Tingxuan's brother, whom he liked very much.

On the rattling carriage, he patiently and meticulously answered all kinds of questions raised by Xia Chaoyang about the people and landforms of Saibei, raised his eyes to look at Lu Shaoyun, who was sitting opposite Xia Shuanghan, and couldn't help but part of his mind, recalling the conversation he had with him on the day Xia Shuanghan came to invite him to travel together.

"Since you and Chaoyang were also invited, then as a stranger who has no contact with the Chen family at all, isn't it good for me to go with me like this?"

"Don't worry, I've already told Boss Chen and the Chen brothers about this. Boss Chen couldn't find time to go with him because of the unusually busy reason that the end of the year was approaching, so when he heard that I wanted to invite you to go, he was happy to have a reliable young man who took care of the children, and he simply agreed. As for the Chen brothers, with Chaoyang with them, they don't care if you go or not. ”

"Really? In that case, I'll have to go with me anyway. Soaking in a hot spring in the middle of winter, is there a more comfortable way to travel in winter? I'm really stained with your siblings. (To be continued.) )
