Chapter 263: A Different Kind of Calculation

The news of the marriage between the Duke of Lu and the Zhao Mansion spread in the noble circle in Beijing as if it had grown wings, and naturally a few families were happy and a few were sad. If there is a relationship with one or both of them, and the relationship is good, it is naturally with the meaning of blessing, but there are also people who are worried about the Luguo Mansion, and when they hear the news, one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.

"It was the little slut surnamed Zhao who took the lead!" In the east courtyard of the Lu Guogong Mansion, there was a small courtyard, and a lady in her thirties smashed a few tea bowls after hearing the news, twisting the handkerchief and saying with a hideous hatred.

"Cousin, don't be angry, it would be bad if others heard this!" The lady who followed her, didn't care about the broken tea bowl, and walked to the door in a little panic to look outside, but didn't find anyone listening, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and turned around and hurriedly persuaded her.

"Mother, you are so angry that you are doing this, but you are just a twelve-year-old girl, Cousin Jingchen is now sixteen, you can still keep it!" A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl walked out of it with a skirt, her clothes were bright and dazzling, a belt tied her waist thinly, and her pink face was bewitching with spring eyebrows, but she was extremely beautiful and charming.

"Mother, slow down, don't mess up by yourself." The girl pursed her lips and smiled, and suddenly she was glamorous, but there was a temperament between her eyebrows that made people look uncomfortable, but she couldn't tell how uncomfortable it was.

"Xiru, you're out! Woke you up, right? The lady was full of resentment just now, but when she saw the girl, she pulled out a smile.

"Isn't my mother also planning for you? Our orphans and widows live in this country's mansion, and they say that they are aunts and grandmothers. In fact, it's just a relative of the autumn wind, if you don't get on that Qian Jingchen, where would you have a better marriage! The middle-aged lady pulled the girl named Xiru to her side and sat down, stroked her hand, and said earnestly.

This middle-aged lady in her thirties, who is also known as her cousin and grandmother in the Lu Guo Mansion, is a female relative who lives in the Lu Guo Mansion. But she is not the daughter of the Duke of Lu's mansion. It is the concubine daughter of Lu Guogong's second brother-in-law. After getting married more than ten years ago, I only had to regret such a daughter, and because my husband's family was defeated, my husband also died, and I was unwilling to live a widowed life in a dilapidated family. Then he returned to his father and returned to the mansion of Lu Guogong. came back with her daughter, the girl who called Xiru.

Because she had suffered a lot outside, this cousin knew the benefits of power. Seeing that his father was respectful to Lu Guogong's house on weekdays, he moved the idea of marrying his daughter to Qian Jingchen, the grandson of Lu Guogong's mansion.

Because it is a relative of five suits out of the room. is the same age as Qian Jingchen, and the so-called cousin and sister marriage is also a good story, and the cousin's father did not object. My cousin and grandmother let Xiru get close to Qian Jingchen on weekdays, wanting to rely on Xiru's beauty. Occupy a place in this Lu State Mansion.

"Indeed, there is no more suitable than Brother Jingchen." Na Xiru bent the corners of her mouth, covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, "Mother, don't be impatient." Although this family affair is decided, it is not so easy to conclude. The young lady of the Zhao family is only twelve years old now. Even if the big house is in a hurry, you have to wait for other people's daughters to talk about it, right? There are still two or three years to go, and it is unknown whether the girl can wait until she gets married. ”

This girl who called pity was like this, her eyes were shining with a calculating light, and the cold light in her eyes inadvertently reminded people of a poisonous snake lurking in the shadows, and it didn't know when it would burst out and bite someone, which made people shudder.

Also in the large courtyard to the east of the Lu Guogong Mansion, an old man in a royal blue brocade robe sat alone in the dark room, his face gloomy and dripping water.

After a while, a gust of wind blew, and when I raised my eyes again, there was an extra man in black in this dark room.

"What are you doing, didn't you say that this time, the little rabbit cub will definitely go and not return! Why did someone come back in a good manner, and even married someone! The old man smashed the tea bowl in his hand on the table with hatred, staring at the man in black viciously, his face was extremely hideous, and his facial features seemed to be displaced.

"Can you do it, if you can't do it, you will return the money!" The old man gritted his teeth and said, the killer he hired at a great price couldn't even deal with a yellow-mouthed child, and he had a great hope at the beginning, just hoping that after the only remaining single seedling in the Lu Guogong Mansion was broken, the old thing of Lu Guogong couldn't stand it and let go.

"Second master, it will take some time for this matter, and now the Lu Guogong Mansion is extremely strict in investigating his courtyard, and there is no room to start." The man in black groaned for a moment, and said that he had also suffered heavy losses in this operation, and now there were only three brothers left under his hands, and if the silver was returned again, it would really be to the point of exhaustion.

"I'll believe you again, half a month, if you can't kill that little rabbit cub again, don't blame me for being ruthless!" The old man said with a hideous face, but the man in black did not answer, hugged his fists and flew away, leaving only the old man known as the second master, sitting alone in the dark room.

These two masters are none other than the current brother of Lu Guogong, the second in line. Because when the old Lu Guogong was alive, the old Lu Guogong died early, and the biological mother of the two masters was extremely favored, and even with these two old men was held in the palm of the old Lu Guogong's hand, and he hated to give him the position of the son.

Lu Guogong spent a lot of hard work to keep the position of the prince, but when he was coming, he was cheated again, promising that in his lifetime, the second master's family did not have to move out of the Lu Guogong Mansion, which is why the old Lu Guogong passed away, but this is the same as Lu Guoping's younger brother, but still lives in the Lu Guogong Mansion.

Lu Guogong thought that he was just a cousin, and he could defeat him when he was just a son, but now that he is hiding his head and shrinking his tail, he doesn't take him to heart anymore, just as a relative who raised a family to fight the autumn wind. How do you know that these two old men have the title of Duke of Lu in their hearts, and right under his nose, they viciously bite his two grandsons to death.

"The position of Lu Guogong was originally mine, as long as I kill that kid of Qian Jingchen again, you old thing, there will be no grandchildren's heirs, hahaha......" The second old man seemed to be crazy, looked up to the sky and laughed, laughed for a while, and then slowly stopped.

"As long as you get rid of your grandchildren, and I have nobles to help me, this Luguo Mansion will be mine!" The second master's eyes narrowed and flashed with cold light, and his face was hideous, and he spit out softly, which made people shudder. (To be continued)
