Chapter 137: Refusal
Ah Jiu's eyes were slightly red, his thick eyelashes were moist, and he was obviously a little wronged.
Lu Tianyang couldn't comfort Ah Jiu, there was a smile on his handsome face, and his obsidian-like eyes implied a bit of happiness, and Ah Jiu felt more and more that Uncle Lu had no sympathy!
As for why he is still called Uncle Lu?
Ah Jiu called Senior Brother Lu in front of outsiders, but they met in private...... She likes the title of Uncle Lu, even if she has memories of her previous life, Ah Jiu is still a flower girl instinctively, willful and naughty.
Ah Jiu's round eyes looked extremely cute, and he pouted, "What are you laughing at?" Her Royal Highness the eldest princess refused to stand up for my father, and just now my grandmother went to the yamen to complain that my father was involved with the traitor, and the burning of the study that day was also proved to be my father's deliberate attempt to annihilate the letters of the rebels. β
Speaking of this, Ah Jiu fell silent, and he had a little resentment towards Mo Xinlan.
Lu Tianyang lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, thinking a word, "Why hasn't it arrived yet?" β
"Who didn't arrive?" Ah Jiu was very curious, and Uncle Lu was slightly abnormal.
"Imperial Doctor."
Lu Tianyang's smile was like a blazing sun, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is indispensable to the imperial doctor. β
This road is the only way to the imperial capital from the garden where the eldest princess lives, so Lu Tianyang ambushed on this road and waited for Ah Jiu to pass by
"What Uncle Lu means......" Ah Jiu gritted his teeth, eager to bite Lu Tianyang in one bite, "I don't dare to make Her Royal Highness the eldest princess of the empire angry." β
Ah Jiu was angry and recalled what happened in the garden, as if he was ...... It seems like...... She was indeed not good enough for the eldest princess, and before she left, the eldest princess looked very uncomfortable.
"She did it herself! Self-righteous is good to my father, and I don't want to think that my father is not a three-year-old ignorant doll, he is middle-aged, and there are constant twists and turns, and my father has always been a very assertive person. β
"You guessed it?"
Lu Tianyang asked firmly, even if he hadn't seen the sad eldest princess with his own eyes, he still felt happy, because of Ah Jiu, he let go of his grudges, knowing that the eldest princess, who had always been confident that he could control a qiΔ, was scorned by Ah Jiu, and he couldn't help but rejoice
"Once is a coincidence, many coincidences are superimposed, and it is inevitable."
Ah Jiu looked at Lu Tianyang and asked very seriously, "Is my guess true?" I'm sure Uncle Lu won't lie to me. β
Lu Tianyang's heart trembled, and he nodded slightly, "The people who know the details are no one except for His Majesty and the Mu family, and they all say that the King of Kaishan holds the treasure of the Beiyan royal family in his hands, and the nurse in the chaotic army got lost with the baby in swaddling clothes, and it is said that the blood of the baby is needed to open the treasure!" And it needs to be sacrificed with his adult soul! "Anyone believes?"
Ah Jiu thinks it's incredible, it's possible to open the treasure with blood and sacrifice it with souls? It is also stipulated that it is an adult soul, which is more fantasy than science fiction films.
"Treasure is too important for anyone to gamble with. After the rumors spread, the people who didn't believe went to look for the treasure, but they didn't come back, and there were many people who died in the treasure hunt over the years, and the rumors became more and more true, and everyone was waiting for the son of the King of the Mountains to show up. β
Lu Tianyang saw Ah Jiu's suspicions about this, "The exploits of the Pioneer King are by no means just those recorded in the book, there are some secrets that you can't know. The legend that Mu Wang Ye is the reincarnation of the gods...... I don't think it's necessarily nonsense. β
"Yan Guogong is not very dangerous?"
"The eldest princess is extremely short in protecting her loved ones, and she rarely cares about the lives of others. Xu Yanguo is rich and noble, and the eldest princess is worthy of him. β
With the status of the eldest princess, how can she care about the life and death of a common person?!
Enjoying wealth naturally comes at a price.
Lu Tianyang didn't want Ah Jiu to think about these dirty things, and asked, "How did you guess?" β
Ah Jiu said lightly: "The old lady is too eccentric, when I see the eldest princess, it is like seeing an incredible person, at that time I thought that she knew the eldest princess, but the eldest princess didn't remember her, and then she brought the old lady and her son, Yan Guogong and my father are the same age, the same month, of course, this qiΔ may be a coincidence." The anti-poetry case erupted, and I couldn't convince myself with coincidences. I haven't been with the old lady for long, and I know that she is not a capable person, at least she is not a smart person who plays with others. β
Before the case broke out, she began to plot to use Aunt Mo to let her second sister burn down the study, and then she was able to falsify evidence and seize the opportunity step by step. If she is really capable, maintaining the wealth of the Mo family will not depend on my father alone. β
Lu Tianyang asked, "Maybe the old lady is suddenly smart?" β
Ah Jiu glanced at it with disgust, and sighed: "There must be someone behind the goddess to bewitch and provide her with information, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is very powerful, and the highest level of calculating people is obviously her idea, and it is stunned to make the person who is calculated think that every qiΔ is her own initiative, and every qiΔ is her own imagination." The puppet placed in the foreground doesn't feel like he's being *charged...... Don't think that the old lady is not smart enough to manipulate her lightly. β
The eldest princess made a lot of arrangements, and she was very attentive to Mo Guanjie, but unfortunately Ah Jiu didn't like her actions.
"In the eyes of Uncle Lu, what kind of person is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess?"
"Proud, confident, and dust-free, there are not many people who can make her fancy it."
"Ever since I met the eldest princess, she has been ...... to me Very good, she was not angry with me, she may have appreciated me before, since the old lady launched her cousin, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess not only appreciates me, but also is very tolerant. β
Ah Jiu is reasonable, the eldest princess has authority, and it is very easy to clean up Ah Jiu.
"Appreciating a person may not ruin her because of discord, and Her Royal Highness the eldest princess will be tolerant and reluctant to treat her relatives who feel guilty."
The truth is that Ah Jiu tried to find out step by step, summed up and speculated - bold assumptions, careful arguments.
"By the way, it's better to hide this from my father."
"Why?"
"I don't want my dad to feel bad and guilty. In the future, even if my father knows the truth, he should not change his surname and return to the sect, in case Yan Guogong has a bad thing, my father is afraid that he will not forgive Her Royal Highness the eldest princess in this life. β
"Brother Mo......"
Lu Tianyang immediately changed his words, "The teacher is indeed a person with backbone and discipline. β
There is an essential difference between Mo Guanjie and the children raised by the eldest princess, the eldest princess can sacrifice at will, Mo Guanjie may not agree, naturally sometimes what Mo Guanjie insists on is ridiculous in the eyes of the eldest princess and others.
Growing up in different environments and experiences is enough to overcome the genetic traits of parents in the bloodline.
"Pingbai is a generation shorter, why should you? Even if you don't worship my father as a teacher, ask him for advice, and my father will still hide his secrets? β
"Ah Jiu, you should know the reason."
ββ¦β¦ I ......"
Ah Jiu's eyelids were half closed, her fingers curled up uneasily, stretched out, Uncle Lu's good impression of herself, she didn't feel it, she sacrificed herself to save her in times of danger several times, and she was very grateful to Uncle Lu, but the idea of marrying Lu Tianyang made Ah Jiu a little dazed.
With a lifetime of memory, Ah Jiu didn't dare to try love again, and he didn't even want to marry for love.
Lu Tianyang approached quietly and slowly clenched Ah Jiu's hand, "I won't force you." β
I can't shake it off, Ah Jiu didn't want to break it off in his heart, his nails scraped the back of Lu Tianyang's hand tightly, and said funny: "Are you forcing me?" β
"I don't force you, it doesn't mean to see you run away like a rabbit and run away!"
Lu Tianyang didn't know why he thought that Ah Jiu was evading, he should be the first man to discover Ah Jiu, before Ah Jiu was in full bloom, he was already tempted by Ah Jiu, and no one could be earlier than him.
Even Mu Yanyu was not earlier than him.
"Actually, we're a good fit."
Lu Tianyang will not tell SΓΉ Ah Jiu what he has given up or the sacrifices he has made, but he will clarify his strengths:
"You're afraid of trouble, I don't have any relatives other than my father-in-law. The title of my father-in-law will not fall on my head, you can be the master of the house when you pass the door, there is no in-laws, no brothers and sisters, and you are very comfortable. I will not fight on the battlefield anymore, and the contradiction with the county lord of Zhaohua and others will also be eased, marry me, you don't have to worry about being afraid, you don't have to separate husband and wife, I can always be by your side. β
"Say no more!"
Ah Jiu's cheeks were red, and the heat coming from his palm was so hot that he couldn't help himself, and then let Lu Tianyang continue, Ah Jiu was afraid that he would feel that he would have no eyes if he didn't marry him, "You have His Royal Highness King Qi as your father-in-law, and you still want to be quiet?" β
It is true that the king of Qi will not make things difficult for his daughter-in-law, but the ability of the king of Qi to cause trouble is comparable to that of ten evil mothers-in-law.
The contradictions between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are mostly trivial matters, and King Qi causing trouble is definitely an earth-shattering event.
"His Royal Highness the King of Qi treats you as if he is his own son, he has something, can you ignore it?"
"The father-in-law knows what he can do and what he can't do."
When Emperor Shenwu was still alive, Lu Tianyang never worried about King Qi, don't look at King Qi's noisy joy, but also see through Emperor Shenwu's bottom line, once Emperor Shenwu died...... Lu Tianyang's eyes flashed, and it was uncertain who would dominate the world.
This must not be said to Ah Jiu first, not because he doesn't believe Ah Jiu, but because he is afraid that Ah Jiu will run away!
Lu Tianyang asked, "That's the case of anti-poetry?" β
"I just told the eldest princess that I would be the master of all the officials who were imprisoned, and go to the Golden Palace to complain to His Majesty and defend the officials."
Ah Jiu asked with a smile, "What does Uncle Lu think?" β
A few drops of cold sweat broke out on Lu Tianyang's forehead, the picture was too beautiful to think about, Ah Jiu was more dazzling than usual, bright and confident, he looked a little stupid, "...... Pretty good. β
"I have the confidence to persuade to say that the Majesty is just ......"
"I don't want to be in the limelight and overwhelm the crowd."
Ah Jiu and Lu Tianyang looked at each other and smiled, her heart was warm, someone understood that she felt good, maybe it was because the career achievements of that life were too brilliant, Ah Jiu wanted to live a dull life, and now Ah Jiu can appreciate Jiang's good intentions, and the eldest princess may not be happy.
"I don't want to come forward to persuade His Majesty, I can ask someone to persuade me."
ββ¦β¦ Lord Mu? β
The corners of Lu Tianyang's mouth were raised high, his handsome face was radiant, and he couldn't help but clench Ah Jiu's hand.
"It turns out that Uncle Lu also thought of it, too, Uncle Lu is older than me and does more things than me, so he will always think of it earlier than me."
ββ¦β¦β
Lu Tianyang's emotion turned into crying and laughing, and he couldn't let Ah Jiu think about the question of age anymore, so he had nothing to say: "I thought you would mention the ancestral tomb of Your Majesty." β
"You're testing me?" Ah Jiu pouted dissatisfiedly, "Even if the ancestors appear, His Majesty will not care, His Majesty lost his father and mother when he was young, his ancestors were all found later, Mu Wang Ye is different, he is His Majesty's life mentor and benefactor, Mu Wang Ye went early, and what is left to His Majesty is the best memories." Besides, my grandfather went to supervise the construction of the imperial mausoleum, and once there was something unusual in the imperial mausoleum, the first thing His Majesty suspected was my grandfather. β
"Ah Jiu is so smart!"
Lu Tianyang rubbed Ah Jiu's forehead like a smart child. "Hmph." Ah Jiuyi shook his head, "I'll arrange it properly." β
"Uncle Lu, be careful, don't fail to save people and get into trouble."
Lu Tianyang, who was about to get out of the car, saw Ah Jiu's worried gaze, suddenly turned around, and picked up Ah Jiu's cheek, Ah Jiu subconsciously closed his eyes, his soft lips fell on his forehead, and a mellow voice seemed to come from his chest, "Ah Jiu, grow up quickly." β
When Ah Jiu came back to his senses, Lu Tianyang was gone.
She touched the position where she had been kissed, with joy, annoyance, and a little shyness, "Next time, I will never let him take advantage of him lightly." β
"Next time?"
Ling Shan asked meaningfully.
"Shut up!"
Ah Jiu lowered his head, "There is no next time!" β
******
In the living room of the Hou Mansion, Jiang put down the teacup and stared at the prince of Yan Guo who was standing in front of him, "You want to marry Sister Qing?" β
"Ming Media is marrying, she is my wife's original match." The prince of Yan Guo was very decisive, "If I don't love her, I won't propose to Mrs. Jiang at this time." β
"In the eyes of the prince, I should be happy to promise you for Sister Qing's future? Marry your sister-in-law, it was the Hou Mansion who took advantage of it. β
ββ¦β¦ Mrs. Jiang. β
The prince of Yan Guo dodged the tea cup that flew over, and was surprised, "You...... You disagree? β
"The prince has no matchmaker and no hiring, just to say in person that he wants to marry the young lady of the Mo family? Sister Qing was born to her aunt, and Master Hou's life and death are uncertain now, but you can't insult the Mo family like this! β
Jiang Shi helped Qi's mother's hand and got up, "I don't know the situation of the Yanguo Mansion at all, the third sister of the Mo family's room and the Yue sister of the aunt's family are the candidates for the wife of the prince who have been tacitly agreed by the elders of the prince, and the prince has come to propose marriage, have you discussed it with the elders?" If you talk about it, if you don't do it in the future, not to mention delaying Sister Qing, how will my remaining daughters get married? β
The swarthy face of the prince of Yan Guo was said to be red, and he was at a loss, "I am sincere to her, and I dare not say anything and believe it." β
"Really? Shiziye, it's not just the two of you who are sincere enough to get married, if your elders don't agree, saying that you can't marry without telling you, wouldn't Sister Qing have to be a concubine? Hou Ye Qinggui is an heirloom, and he has told me several times that from Ah Jiu's generation, the daughter of the Mo family will never be a concubine. β
"I ...... I'll go and prepare the dowry and invite the matchmaker first, Mrs. Jiang...... I will definitely marry my sister. β
The prince of Yan turned around and left.
Jiang sighed: "Sister Qing'er is lucky, he is wholeheartedly devoted to Sister Qing'er." β
"The prince is here to propose, can Miss Eight know? Why do you want to spoil Miss Eight's good deeds? β
"I don't ask Sister Qing to be grateful, and I don't want to have a good reputation." Jiang replied lightly: "It's not easy to be a woman, take the wrong first step, and this life will be over." βR1152
