Night fell quietly, Lu Qing stood in front of the window and looked at a big tree in the night, her expression was so focused, but from the complicated look in her eyes, it could be seen that she had a deep heart.

For a woman, marriage is almost her entire life, as a famous daughter, she doesn't have to worry about her future life and other extraneous things, she doesn't have to worry about not marrying a good husband, but she just wants to marry the person she loves, that unforgettable two days and two nights, she can't let go of it in her life.

It's just that this dream is so close to her, but she can't touch it.

"Girl!"

Ah Yuan whispered behind him: "Zhang Gongzi is a person who values love and righteousness, and he will never let down the girl." ”

Lu Qing sighed softly, she was worried that it was not Zhang Lang, but those who could affect her marriage, including her parents and Cui Lu's two families, but she couldn't do anything.

At this time, a maid's report came from outside the door, "Girl, Madame is here." ”

Lu Qingxiu frowned slightly, not long after she came back from Beihai County, she had a big quarrel with her mother, and then both sides stopped paying attention to each other, what is her mother doing now?

Although she resented her mother's rudeness in her heart, she was her biological mother after all, so she had to nod, "Please let her in!" ”

Door 'squeak'! With a bang, Mrs. Lu hurriedly walked into her daughter's boudoir, she glanced at Ah Yuan, Ah Yuan immediately bowed knowingly, and retreated, leaving only their mother and daughter in the room.

Lu Qing stepped forward and saluted, and said in a low voice: "Daughter see mother!" ”

"Sit down! I want to have a good talk with you tonight. ”

Mrs. Lu sat down, and Lu Qing also sat silently beside her mother, she didn't speak, her eyes drooped slightly, and there was no expression on her face.

Mrs. Lu sighed secretly in her heart, the relationship between their mother and daughter was so cold. Who made this sin, at this time, Mrs. Lu also had a trace of remorse in her heart.

"I'm going to look for your uncle this afternoon."

Mrs. Lu's tone was very gentle, and she no longer had the aggressive sharpness she had before, nor did she say anything domineering, and she could tell from her tone that she had given in.

"I'm telling you very clearly, uncle. I hope he won't interfere in your marriage again, including the Cui family. ”

Lu Qing raised her head suddenly, looking at her mother in surprise, she didn't seem to understand the meaning of her mother's words, but she felt something, could it be that her mother .....

Mrs. Lu took her daughter's hand and gently put a piece of jade into her hand, "This is the engagement token of Gongzi Zhang to our Lu family, and it will be handed over to you for my mother." ”

Lu Qing's body trembled slightly. She couldn't believe her ears, she couldn't believe her eyes, the piece of jade in her hand was and was given to her by her mother.

"Mother! It's," she asked in a trembling voice.

A hint of apology flashed in Mrs. Lu's eyes, and she said softly: "Since the day you were born, my mother wanted to marry you to the Cui family, thinking that that was your destination, and I have been thinking and doing this for so many years." But suddenly one day my mother found that what she had been looking forward to for more than ten years had come to naught, so she was anxious. is irritable, can you understand the mood of the mother? ”

"My daughter can understand, it's just this jade"

Mrs. Lu smiled: "I went to visit Zhang Gongzi this morning, I think since you want to follow him, I will no longer stop you, I just hope that he can take good care of you." ”

"Mother-"

Lu Qing suddenly burst into tears. She threw herself into her mother's arms, couldn't hold it anymore, and began to cry lowly.

"You kid, you've been a tear bag since you were a child, and you're still like this!" Mrs. Lu gently stroked her daughter's hair. Her eyes were red too.

"My mother has promised Zhang Gongzi, and your father has also agreed, tomorrow Su Erniang will come to be a matchmaker, and it is more meaningful for the Su family to be a matchmaker.

Lu Qing burst into tears in his mother's arms, and there was a little more joy and more gratitude in these tears

The news that Zhang Xuan was going to marry the daughter of the Lu family spread quickly, and some politically sensitive people immediately realized that Zhang Xuan had taken refuge in the Hebei Shi clan, but those who knew the inside story knew in their hearts that the Hebei Shi clan was not monolithic.

For example, the Boling Cui clan may not accept Zhang Xuan, and the Bohai Sea will penetrate too deep in Hebei, and Zhang Xuan marries the daughter of the Lu family, I am afraid that there will be some kind of intersection with the Bohai Sea.

At noon on this day, a carriage slowly drove into Luoyang City from the Upper East Gate, through the thin curtain on the car window, Dou Qing looked at the flow of people on the street outside with complicated eyes, due to physical pain, he has been living in Chang'an since the end of the hero meeting.

Dou Qing was indeed very thin, he became thin and small, as if only a handful of bones were left, his gray hair became thin, and his hands and face were covered with old age spots, it could be seen that he was very old and his days were numbered.

Although his health did not allow him to work hard, a few days ago he heard news that made him unable to sit still anymore and had to get up and rush to Luoyang.

Dou Qing's eyes were full of worry, he received an urgent letter from Dugu Shun, Zhang Xuan was about to marry the daughter of the Lu family, this news shocked him very much, Zhang Xuan actually married the Hebei Shi clan.

Dou Qing knew very well what this meant, which meant that the Guanlong nobles completely lost the opportunity to win over Zhang Xuan.

This made Dou Qing very depressed, but at this point, he could only admit defeat, he always thought that Zhang Xuan would marry the Pei family, and the Pei family had secretly taken refuge in the Guanlong nobles, so he did not continue to fight for Zhang Xuan.

But how could he not have imagined that Zhang Xuan would marry the daughter of Fan Yang Lu's wife, which made him feel deeply shocked.

However, Dugu Shun asked him to discuss this matter, which made Dou Qing a little strange in his heart, Dugu Shun had never put Zhang Xuan in his eyes, why did he start to pay attention to it again at this time?

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the Tiansi Pavilion Wine Shop, which was the property of Dugu's family, and Dugu Shun asked him to meet here.

Dou Qing went up to the third floor with the support of two entourages, walked into the innermost corridor, and saw eight warriors with big shoulders and round waists standing at the end of the corridor, carrying swords at their waists, all of them majestic, this is Dugu Shun's guards, they saw Dou Qing coming, and bowed down together.

Dou Qing waved his hand, "You guys retreat first!" ”

"Yes!" The eight samurai saluted and retreated.

Dou Qing pushed open the door and walked into the room that was quite mysterious, there were two rooms inside and outside the room, which were very elegantly arranged, there were two couches on the table in the inner room, and there was a meal on each small table, and there was a tall old man standing in front of the window, wearing a golden crown and a pale yellow robe.

Hearing the footsteps, Dugu Shun slowly turned around and said with a slight smile: "I'm sorry to receive the virtuous brother here." ”

"Brother doesn't have to apologize, I understand my brother's difficulties."

Dugu Shun waved his hand, "Please take a seat!" ”

The two sat down opposite each other, and Dou Qing asked with concern, "Is the Son of Heaven still monitoring his brother?" ”

Dou Qing knew very well that the reason why Dugu Shun did not receive him in the mansion was because he was being monitored by the imperial court, relatively speaking, the surveillance of the Dou Mansion was much better, because he was no longer in the capital.

Dugu Shun nodded, "Since Yuan Min's self-determination, the number of monitors outside my mansion has increased threefold, and when today's son is very wary of us, it has been proved that it is a very wise move for us to revoke Wuchuan Mansion." ”

"How so?" Dou Qing asked lightly.

"Since the assassination of Chen Liu, Yang Guang's target has turned to the Bohai Society, because we don't have Wuchuan Mansion, he only spies on me, and the rest of the mansions have withdrawn surveillance, it is conceivable that if Wuchuan Mansion is still there, he will definitely believe that Chen Liu's assassination was committed by Huofeng."

Dugu Shun looked a little excited, he talked a lot more than usual, he had too many things to talk about with Dou Qing.

But Dou Qing still looked so breezy and calm, he poured himself a glass of wine, took a sip, seemed to be tasting the mellowness of the wine, and after a while, Dou Qing suddenly asked: "Why does my brother suddenly care about Zhang Xuan?" ”

Dugu Shun's face showed a hint of embarrassment, he remembered very clearly that he had resolutely opposed Zhang Xuan, who was not related to Guan Long's blood, joining Wuchuan Mansion, and at this moment, he suddenly felt that Zhang Xuan was important.

Dugudun sighed, "I didn't expect him to have today's achievements, he actually controlled Jianghuai, and held 20,000 heavy troops, such a person took refuge in the Hebei Shi clan, which really made me feel uneasy." ”

"Brother is actually afraid that he will join the Bohai Society!" Dou Qing said sharply. (To be continued.) )
