Chapter 136: City

Previous Chapter

Lu Jingyuan's martial arts are strong, and he was already aware of it when Ah Yao had just turned a corner and was still far away from here. Aware of the stranger's approach, he was momentarily on alert, but after a little discernment, he quickly recognized the distinctive footsteps.

As light as a cat, and with a unique rhythm - the sound of running is so good, there is only his girl in the world.

Find out who is coming, and then look at what you are doing at the moment. He knew very well that with Ah Yao's efforts over the years, he would definitely be able to recognize that the inconspicuous canopy boat belonged to Shen Moci. Originally, he had enough time to cover up, but when it came to the end, he chose to confess.

If the cold war continues, he will almost be unable to hold on.

"You stand down first."

Noticing that Ah Yao was looking at the canopy boat with an unkind look, he ordered the secret guard next to him in a deep voice.

"Yes."

The dark guard clenched his fists and retreated, and when he passed by the oncoming A-Yao, his steps were slightly hesitant. The cough sounded at the right time, and the obedient nature in his bones forced him to retreat quickly.

"You're here."

Lu Jingyuan took two steps forward, and with a long arm, he helped her sort out the skirt that was about to fall to the water.

The calm look dispelled the last trace of doubt in Ah Yao's heart. Standing an arm's length away from him, she looked up at his dark eyes.

Qingshuang complained to her in private, saying that the little marquis was obviously a handsome young man, but his momentum was like a living Hades. Especially those eyes, when he looked at them, he would unconsciously tremble.

But she had never felt that kind of fierce momentum, and even at this moment, she could even see a hint of gentleness in his calm gaze.

"Well, in the matter of canonizing the county king, Brother Jing must have contributed a lot in the back."

Seeing that she guessed, Lu Jingyuan didn't hide much.

Nodding, he said, "Actually, it's not as hard as you think." The Hu family generously donated the military salary for the Qingcheng recruitment, and the clothing and cutting expenses used in the military uniforms of the Northwest Army were all borne by this silver tael. In the final analysis, this matter is the credit of the Hu family, and it is natural to make you a county king. ”

Although he said it lightly, Ah Yao, who had thought about it, knew the difficulty. Just bypassing the Marquis of Guangping Mansion and sending these military uniforms to the hands of the Northwest soldiers who are truly loyal to the present, ordinary people can't do this.

"It is not the Hu family's contribution to raise military salaries, this matter is thanks to Brother Jing's mediation, and the credit for reasoning should be yours."

"Mine?" Lu Jingyuan took a step further, the two of them were almost close to each other, and his chin was pressed against the top of her head, and he said in a deep voice: "That's yours." ”

Ah Yao was stunned for a moment, and when she realized what this sentence meant, a sweetness rose from the bottom of her heart, and the temperature on her face couldn't help rising.

Looking down at the delicate girl beside her, her joy was so obvious at this moment, through every pore and every strand of hair, escaping around, deeply infecting him. Suddenly, Lu Jingyuan found that compared to the man's self-esteem and face, this girl's happiness was the most real.

She was so happy that she was infected with him.

What exactly is he struggling with? Worried that she won't be able to bear it?

Whether it is the tenacity she showed in the courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing in her previous life, or the intelligence when she fought wits and courage with Shen Moci in this life, she has never been as weak as she appears on the outside. Recently, she took over the Hu family's industry, opened her own shop and prepared for the Qingcheng silk market, all of which showed her strength.

She is the one who can share the storm with him.

At this moment, although Ah Yao hid in his shadow like a little girl with a budding spring heart, Lu Jingyuan still saw through her weak body the soul in her heart that was growing stronger and tougher.

There are some things that maybe shouldn't be hidden from her.

Stretching out his hand to caress the top of her hair, he spoke: "Wu Youliang's plot against the case is nearing the end, and the Shen family is implicated in it as an accomplice. ”

Ah Yao woke up from the rippling in her heart, her ignorant eyes gradually returned to clarity, turned her head to look at the canopy boat that had sailed away, and asked, "What is the intention of Brother Jing to let Shen Moci go?" ”

A sweet "Brother Jing" soothed the last bit of anxiety in Lu Jingyuan's heart. Rao is his strategy, and when facing the girl he likes, he will also be apprehensive-

She was burdened with the hatred of her past and present lives, and watched him let go of her greatest enemy. Faced with this situation, is she really sane, or is it just the calm before the storm?

A-Yao's affectionate address gave him the answer, and it also made him feel a sense of pride from the bottom of his heart. This is the girl he fancies, she is far more beautiful than he imagined.

"Mo Daru has analyzed the situation with you."

When he said this, Lu Jingyuan's tone was very affirmative. After a pause, his temperament slowly changed from composure to a feeling.

"Presumably the master also told you about my background, but he didn't know it in detail. My biological mother is the royal sister of my mother's compatriots, and her name is Ning'an. ”

"Eldest Princess Ning'an? Isn't it the reincarnated princess of the daughter of the Dragon King of the East China Sea in the Guicheng Savior? ”

Ah Yao had long known that Brother Jing was from an extraordinary background, otherwise at his age, no matter how capable Rao was, he would not be able to respect him as a marquis. However, she is still an innocent girl who has been pampered by Hu Jiuling for thirteen years, she is carefree about food and clothing, and she is used to looking at everyone with the greatest kindness, and never judges a person by her background.

Brother Jing didn't say it, and she never delved into his origin. But when he said it, Bai Mo Daru came in to make up for the interpersonal relationship of the famous nobles of the Great Xia, and she quickly thought of a large number of dignitaries.

"Then your father, isn't it the Guangping Marquis Mansion that has been in control of the northwest for many years?"

"That's true, this drama of the Savior of the Turtle Cheng was specially made up to save my aunt's life. When the barbarians broke through the Yumen Pass, the Emperor Taishang hurriedly sat in the present, that is, the emperor's uncle. When he first ascended to the throne, the emperor's uncle was constrained by all parties, so he could only use the family affairs of Ah Niang to balance the forces of all parties. Guangping Hou is naturally very unwilling, but if he wants to move the reincarnation of the Dragon Girl, he has to weigh it. ”

After clarifying the grievances of the year in a few words, Lu Jingyuan changed his words: "Shen Moci has been in contact with the capital and the northwest, and she has dragged out a lot of secret relationships with the other party in several actions. This time she fled in a hurry, and she must defect to one of them. ”

Thanks to Mo Daru's popular science, Ah Yao easily understands this intricate interpersonal relationship.

understands and understands, and she can't help but complain in her heart that "your circle is really messy". Putting a comfortable and leisurely and wealthy life, but you have to fight with cockfighting, you can't find yourself happy.

After complaining, she couldn't help but think deeply, did the fall of the Hu family in her previous life have anything to do with it? As soon as she thought of this, Brother Jing's last sentence came out, and she instantly understood. The Hu family in the previous life was purely the poor mortal who was affected in the "Immortal Fight Mortal Suffering".

After thinking about it, a nameless fire rose in her heart, their Hu family has accumulated virtue and good deeds for generations, and lived their rich and noble life with peace of mind, who did they recruit and provoke?

"What does Brother Jing mean by using Shen Moci's bait to catch the big fish behind him?"

"Exactly." Lu Jingyuan looked at her appreciatively, clearly seeing the anger rising in her apricot eyes, and he roughly guessed her thoughts.

"One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, let alone a three-legged stand. This matter seems to have nothing to do with the Hu family......"

"No, this matter is closely related to the Hu family." Ah Yao said categorically: "Although my Hu family is just a businessman, it can be regarded as a thin family. As the saying goes: Thousands of miles to be an official for food and clothing. Some people seem to be high on the surface, but what kind of food and clothing do they not need silver? keeps talking about yellow and white things, but they like it very much in their bones! ”

In the end, there was some gnashing of teeth in her voice, this is the blood hatred of the previous life!

Why is it that even he is hateful?

keenly aware of her fluctuations, Lu Jingyuan was helpless.

"The emperor's uncle is still clear in rewards and punishments, and he occupies orthodoxy, so he will not use ghost tricks to take advantage of it."

The one on the dragon chair is indeed a rare good emperor, and within a few years of ascending the throne, he managed the devastated rivers and mountains left by the emperor after his extravagance. In her previous life, when she finally lived in a courtyard house on the outskirts of Beijing, she listened to her neighbors' gratitude.

Sitting on a huge family fortune, the Hu family is destined to be unable to stand alone. Since sooner or later she will be involved in this dusty Vanity Fair, why not choose the one she is the most pleasing to the eye and the most reliable?

"This is indeed a wise lord."

After thinking about it, A-Yao gradually relaxed, and also had a ridiculous heart: "That's why I have a good eye and a pearl, and I am the county king." ”

Seeing her turn the corner so quickly, Lu Jingyuan was even more relaxed, "He is indeed not wise in this regard, and he is even a little confused." ”

"What?" Hearing him mercilessly belittle Jinshang, Ah Yao looked over in puzzlement, her eyes widening.

Looking at the slightly baby fat chin, it really looked like a squirrel, the corners of Lu Jingyuan's lips rose slightly, "The Hu family donated such a large sum of silver, and made great contributions in the Northwest War, such a great credit, how can you be crowned a county lord, I didn't expect it to be only given to a county monarch, isn't this a fool and what is it?" ”

After saying that, he nodded heavily, with a look of thinking that he was telling the truth.

What kind of fallacy is this? As soon as A-Yao wanted to refute, she looked up and saw his handsome and uncast face. In the past, it was already good enough to look good, and it was even more dazzling to laugh.

How can there be such good-looking people in the world? Completely immersed in his unrivaled appearance, she completely lost the ability to think, and only felt that what the person in front of her said was right.

I know that this girl covets the beauty of this wait!

Fortunately, Ben Hou gave birth to a good-looking face. After discovering that this girl has developed for the second time, her IQ has evolved perfectly, and she can no longer be crushed by him at will, unlike the pride when she saw her obsessive look in the past, Lu Jingyuan thought happily at this moment.

The two of them, who were immersed in tenderness and sweetness, didn't notice at all, and around the corner not far away, the exotic boy with blue eyes looked at the two of them in shock.

"The Dingbei Marquis of Great Xia? Fortunately, I didn't have a clear mind just now, otherwise wouldn't I have been a complete defeat? ”

Wait, wait until the capital, maybe this matter will take another turn.
