Hearing Lu Qingrong's words, Lu Qianyu also suddenly remembered, but went upstairs quietly without saying anything.

Lu Qingrong knew that she was a little depressed these days, one because she was about to get married, and the other because of Jiang Ling.

It's just that Lu Qianyu has never mentioned these things to her head-on, and she can't persuade anything.

Her second sister was obviously squirming, and Jiang Ling was probably the only thing in her heart that she couldn't open her mouth to mention.

It turns out that no matter what kind of place you are, feelings are the most headache, but you can't give up lightly.

And where do you return your love?

Will you also encounter fate, or can't ask for it?

Thinking of this, Lu Qingrong couldn't help but smile secretly.

She's going to get married next month, so what's the use of thinking about it again.

Frankly speaking, she has never been emotionally involved with anyone before, and I don't think she will have a chance to try it in the future.

Being a wife of the prince in a down-to-earth manner is what she needs to do in the future.

Lu Qingrong suddenly felt a little lost.

After coming to the Great Qi Dynasty for more than ten years, from the beginning of the cautiousness when I found myself in a different world, for fear that others would regard me as an alien, to gradually integrating into this world, I am somewhat accustomed to the rules and customs here...... What an indescribable transformation.

Have you finally become a veritable ancient man?

Will her future be the same as everyone here, all the grievances, step by step, until the end of her life?

Lu Qingrong himself had no answer, and it was inevitable that he would be a little sad.

Soon he stopped thinking about it and turned back to his bedroom.

At this time, Lu Qingrong obviously didn't realize that the life waiting for her in front of her would be completely unexpected......

The next day, in order to allow Jiang Shenzhi and Lu Yizhong to catch up with the participation, the send-off banquet held by the Lu Mansion for Jiang Ling was arranged in the evening.

In the afternoon, Lu Chengjie came back.

In previous years, most of the examinations could be completed in mid-February, but this time, due to the delay in the seizure of the Gongyuan in the case of fraud in the department, and the procedures for the subsequent re-examination became more complicated, so it was delayed until late February.

After staying in the Gongyuan for so many days, Lu Chengjie seemed to be a different person.

The lake blue Hangzhou silk collar is clean and neat, and the hair is still combed neatly, but the stubble that faintly emerges from his face makes his original energetic appearance no longer neat.

When Lu Chengjie came to the main house of the East Courtyard, Lu Qingrong happened to come out of Yin Pingru.

The two walked face to face, and Lu Qingrong was almost frightened.

"Big brother?" This is the first time she has seen such a raunchy Lu Chengjie, "I didn't expect you to come back so early!" ”

"Today is the last day of the test, so you can leave the venue if you finish it early." Seeing that Lu Qingrong had been staring at his face, Lu Chengjie touched his chin embarrassedly and said.

"It seems that the eldest brother is very confident about this achievement!" These words are not casual praise, Lu Qingrong knows that with his personality, if he is not completely sure, he will definitely not leave the scene early.

"Huh." Lu Chengjie's eyes flickered slightly, "I'm still young, and it doesn't matter if I don't pass the exam, just work hard next time!" ”

Lu Chengjie's tone was very natural, with an understatement.

Lu Qingrong listened to it but felt a little wrong, Lu Chengjie, who has always been quite confident, actually said this kind of thing when he came back from the exam, which is not quite in line with his character......

When he looked up, he found that Lu Chengjie was looking at him with a tangled expression at the moment.

Lu Qingrong was confused, but he didn't take the initiative to ask.

On weekdays, she and this eldest brother rarely chat, so until now, the two of them are still somewhat restrained when they talk.

"Big brother coming to find his mother?"

"Hmm." Lu Chengjie nodded.

"Then you go in first, and we'll talk again when we go to the main courtyard for dinner in the evening." I was about to go to the South Courtyard to find Sister Jiang, so I took the first step. ”

After Lu Qingrong finished speaking, he was about to walk away.

As soon as he turned around, he heard Lu Chengjie shouting from behind: "Fourth sister." ”

When I turned around, I saw Lu Chengjie looking like he wanted to speak and stopped, and the tangled expression on his face was even worse than just now.

Lu Qingrong looked puzzled, and kept his head back and did not move.

And Lu Chengjie shook his head gently: "It's okay, you can go." ”

Lu Qingrong saw that he didn't want to say anything, so he didn't ask anything, and went directly to the south courtyard.

At this time, Yin Pingru, who was in the main room, couldn't help but be a little surprised when she saw that Lu Chengjie in front of her hadn't even changed her clothes, and came to see her first as soon as she returned home.

In her impression, Lu Chengjie didn't spend much time with her, let alone took the initiative to come to her.

Xu is because Lu Chengjie is the oldest among the children, Xu is because he is a boy after all, so he has to avoid it, in short, over the years, she has talked to him very rarely, far less close than Lu Fangyu and them.

"Why don't you freshen up first...... Yin Pingru's tone obviously has the unique care of elders, "After taking the exam for so many days in a row, it should be very tiring, right?" ”

"It's the son who is abrupt, and the mother is not to blame." Lu Chengjie couldn't help but touch his chin again, "I'm not tired, but I'm always a little worried in my heart...... How is my father now, is he still in the Criminal Department? ”

"Well, I'm still in the Criminal Department, and I'm still not allowed to visit. It's just that now I can send some food in, and these days it's all sent by the small kitchen in the house, which is somewhat better than before. ”

Yin Pingru is still very helpless when she says it, since a few days before the exam, she has not seen Lu Yiduo again.

"Is there anyone who has found the real leak?"

In fact, Lu Chengjie knew in his heart that if he found it, Lu Yiduo would not still be locked up in the Criminal Department, but he was still unwilling to give up a glimmer of hope in his heart.

"No, I heard from Lord Lang Di of the Criminal Department, there has been no progress so far." Yin Pingru paused suddenly, as if she was a little hesitant, "But the Marquis of Jingyuan's Mansion promised to help, and also promised that your father would be able to return to the mansion by next month at the latest......"

It's all the truth, but it's a bit obscure.

But Lu Chengjie still understood.

As soon as he came out of the examination room today, he heard the news that "Miss Lu Si and the Marquis of Jingyuan are married".

At the time, I thought it was a bit strange.

My mother had never wanted their siblings to marry too soon, let alone so hastily decided when my father was killed.

The reason is not difficult to guess, although he never opened his mouth to confirm when he saw Lu Qingrong just now, but now after listening to the meaning of his mother's words, it is very obvious.

"Is there no other way?" Lu Chengjie asked with some difficulty.

Yin Pingru was slightly stunned, but in the end she didn't say anything, just squeezed out a wry smile.

The two people in the room were relatively speechless for a moment.

At this time, Lu Qingrong had already arrived at the South Courtyard, and Jiang Yunpei came to her today, and she didn't know what was going on.

As soon as he entered the east wing where Jiang Yunpei lived, Lu Qingrong was confused by the scene in front of him.

Almost nothing was still in place in the room, and the contents of the cabinets and boxes were turned out and placed on the tables, chairs, or beds, making them look very disorganized.

It was the first time she had seen Jiang Yunpei's house be so messy.

"What are you doing here?" Lu Qingrong opened his mouth and asked, "Could it be that you also want to follow your brother to Guanwai?" ”

"I want to go, they have to take me too!" Jiang Yunpei said while still rummaging through the shelves, "Have you seen my guqin score, which is the rare book in the first year of Jingxi?" ”

Lu Qingrong couldn't remember it for a while, their usual books were often mixed together, "Don't turn it over yet, I can't remember it now, I'll go back and find it for you later." That's what you called me for? ”

"I'm not in a hurry!" Jiang Yunpei hurriedly explained, "It's just that the other side has been packing up my luggage in a mess for the past few days, and I feel bored when I hear it, so I want to organize my things as well......"

I see.

Although Jiang Ling's words have never been few, after all, he has not been separated from Jiang Yunpei for so many years, especially now that Jiang Shenzhi can rarely rest, thinking of him and leaving again, Jiang Yunpei must be very reluctant in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ling didn't say much to anyone on weekdays, and now that he is leaving, there are really many people who feel nostalgic for it......

Lu Qingrong accompanied Jiang Yunpei to tidy up the house until it was getting dark, and then they came out together to plan to go to the main courtyard for dinner.

"I thought it was strange just now, why didn't Sister Qian come with you today?" Jiang Yunpei asked as soon as he went out.

"I'm tired of learning the rules these days, I guess she has been sleeping until now......"

As the two were talking, they saw Jiang Ling walking out of the opposite west wing, holding a stack of books in his hand.

"These books belong to your eldest brother, I'll leave tomorrow, you can help me return them to him." Jiang Ling didn't say hello either, and directly said something.

Lu Qingrong saw that there was a copy of "Spring and Autumn" at the top, and he thought that it was all four books and five classics and the like.

"Don't you have to look at it?" Lu Qingrong remembered that he said that he wanted to study while traveling.

"These are the ones I've read for a long time." Jiang Ling smiled slightly, "Besides, in the future, if you follow Master Wu, a well-educated person from the Hanlin Academy, you will still need these books!" ”

Lu Qingrong didn't plan to raise the bar with him, but he didn't take those books either.

"My eldest brother has already returned, you can leave it to him yourself when you go to the main courtyard in a while."

Jiang Ling then remembered that today was the last day of the exam, so he hurriedly took those books, followed Lu Qingrong and them, and walked towards the main courtyard.

At the send-off banquet in the evening, everyone gave Jiang Ling gifts or ceremonies.

From beginning to end, the atmosphere at the banquet was very dull and even a little gloomy.

Lu Yiduo is still in prison, and the people of the Lu family are naturally not easy.

And Jiang Ling's trip to the border was basically a waste of time and an impact on the scientific expedition in everyone's eyes, and most of them couldn't understand how Jiang Shenzhi agreed with him.

The meal ended in the midst of everyone's thoughts.

Until March, the Lu family was still depressed.

As Lu Qingrong's wedding date is getting closer and closer, everyone can't tell whether they are nervous or looking forward to it.

The only consolation is that Lu Yiduo's matter finally has news. RS
