Today's weather is good, the sun hangs in the south sky, shining on the body of the warm, in the winter to have such a sunny and warm weather, can also be called very rare, so many people come out of the warm house, bask in the sun and chat, by the way to move the lazy body.

In the garden of the Qi Palace, Li Su, with the support of Wen Xin, walked slowly along a winding gravel path, coughing twice from time to time, obviously not getting better. In fact, his illness should have been almost better, but in order to stop Tubo and his relatives, Li Su was troubled and tired, and his spirit and body did not get a good rest, and as a result, his condition recurred, and his body was still very weak until now, and he could barely go to the ground.

"Husband, the national affairs will not stop you from doing it, but you must also pay attention to your body, and you must not be reckless!" Wen Xin was holding Li Su on the one hand, her mouth was still counting her husband, she was waiting by Li Su's side day and night these days, and at the same time, she was repeatedly frightened by Li Su's condition, almost unable to eat or sleep, only a few days later, she already looked a lot haggard.

"Hehe, Wenxin, you are right, I promise, from now on, concentrate on recuperation, and never worry about those outside again!" Li Su raised his palms and swore a promise.

It's a pity that after Wen Xin heard Li Su's assurance, he showed a meaningful smile, looked at his husband for a while, and then lightly opened his lips and said, "Husband, if you don't worry about the outside affairs, then what should Miss Cui from the Lu Guogong Mansion do?" ”

Li Su didn't expect Wen Xin to make a joke about this. I couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed at the moment, but I still cheekily defended: "Ahem~." Wenxin, Miss Cui should be regarded as our family matter. It can't be regarded as an outside business, so it should be managed. ”

"Oh? So if you want to take care of it, why hasn't there been any movement so far? And I heard that the wedding date set by the Cui family and the Lu family is coming soon, is it true that your Royal Highness King Qi, who threatened to snatch people over, is really not in a hurry at all? Wen Xin was obviously very concerned about Meng Xue, who was about to enter the Qi Palace. Still unrelentingly teased her, Li Su said.

"Hehe, it's because the wedding date is getting closer and closer that I'm more calm." Li Su didn't dare to accept it head-on, but changed the topic with a smile. Women are animals that like to eat sweets when they are young. But when she grows up, she likes to eat sour, no matter how generous a woman is, I am afraid that when she sees her husband marrying another woman, she can't help but be jealous.

Although Wen Xin is smart, his temperament is relatively simple, and he really fell into the scheme, and asked very curiously: "Husband, why is this?" ”

"Hehe, Wen Xin, think about it, the original agreed wedding date is coming soon. But so far, there has been no movement in Lu Hong's house, doesn't this mean anything? Li asked with a smile.

"Oops! I'm so stupid, why didn't I think of that? Wen Xin immediately understood when he heard this, and said with a look of annoyance. Marriage is such a big event, if the Lu family wanted to hold it, the other party would definitely have prepared in advance, but now there has been no movement, so there is only one result. That is, the other party has no intention of marrying that Miss Cui again.

However, Wen Xin quickly thought of another question, and spoke again: "Husband, although the other party has no intention of marrying Miss Cui, he has never said anything, what if they just drag on like this and never withdraw from the marriage?" "Wen Xin is a woman after all, and she doesn't know much about this matter, so she asks this question.

"Wenxin, you can rest assured about this, now the initiative is in my hands, so it should be the other party who really can't wait, not us!" Li Su explained with a smile, "In addition, I can be sure that the other party is likely to come to visit me in person in the next few days!" ”…,

As soon as Li Su's words fell, he saw Wen'er suddenly panting and running into the garden, and when he saw Li Su, his face was happy, and he walked over quickly and took out a letterhead and said, "Your Highness, someone outside has sent Mr. Wang's letter, saying that it must be opened by you personally." ”

Li Su raised his eyebrows after hearing this, he had already faintly expected the content of the letter, so he hurriedly took the letterhead and opened it to take a look, only to see that there were only four small words written on it: Lu has entered the city!

Seeing these four words, Li Su's face was full of sickness, and finally showed a bright smile, although he knew that the news would come sooner or later, but when he really received the good news, he couldn't help but be a little excited.

Qinren Fang, in the southeast of Chang'an City, has always been the place where dignitaries live, and the mansions in the square are all over the place, or luxurious or solemn in different styles. However, those who can live here are the lowest officials of the fifth grade, and in the direction of the south of the middle of the square, there is a mansion with a rather simple building, the owner of the mansion is surnamed Lu, and the official worships Shangshu Youcheng, who is an official under the fourth grade, in charge of the personnel of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs and the Ministry of Industry, as well as supervising the daily behavior of the personnel of these three departments, which can be said to be a powerful figure.

This Lu Youcheng has a single name and a friend, and he was born in Fanyang Lu's family, and Lu Hong, who is engaged to Cui Mengxue, is the only son of this Lu Youcheng and Lu Youcheng.

"Uncle, father, Mengxue is my fiancée, this is the marriage we have already made with Qinghe Cui's family, and I will never withdraw from the marriage no matter what!" In the main hall of the Lu Mansion, a young man resisted loudly, and the one who could say these words was naturally the unlucky Lu Hong.

"Son! My father has already told you about this matter, and your marriage with that Cui woman is already related to the survival of the family, so this is no longer your own business, no matter how you deal with it in the end, it depends on the needs of the family! When Lu You saw that his son dared to disobey him and his uncle, he immediately slapped the case angrily, pointed at the other party's nose and scolded.

"Father, it's not that the child doesn't consider the needs of the family, it's just that Li Su deceives people too much, if he is allowed to snatch Mengxue away today, how should the child behave in the future, and how can he raise his head in front of others?" Lu Hong had already been dizzy by the divorce, so he couldn't listen to anyone at all, and still yelled at Lu You.

"Smack~" As soon as Lu Hong's words fell, someone in the hall suddenly made a move and slapped him in the face.

"Bastard thing, for a little woman, she doesn't even care about the family, are you still worthy of being my Fan Yang Lu family's disciple?" The beater was a gray-haired old man, this person's name was Lu Zuo, who was Lu You's own brother, that is, Lu Hong's uncle, and the current patriarch of the Fanyang Lu clan.

As a child of a family, Lu Hong's performance just now is indeed abnormal, after all, in the eyes of all people from the family, the family is the first place, no matter who or anything, as long as it threatens the safety of the family, it must be erased, even if it is a big price. It's a pity that Li Su's power is too big, and it is not something that their Lu clan can wipe out, so in the end they have to choose to compromise.

Lu Hong was stunned for a moment, he knew that his uncle Lu Zuo had no heirs, and he had always regarded himself as his own son, not to mention beating, and he was not even willing to scold, but now because of the divorce, the eldest uncle, who doted on him the most, actually beat himself?

"Uncle ......"

Lu Hong's anger was finally lost by this slap, and he shouted timidly. But before Lu Hong finished speaking, he saw Lu Zuo roaring angrily again: "Don't call me uncle, I Lu Zuo doesn't have a nephew like you!" ”

This finally frightened Lu Hong, he knew that although his uncle usually loved him, he was also the head of the clan, and no matter who made a mistake, he would deal with it selflessly according to the clan rules. Although it is reasonable for him to defend his marriage, he has violated the first iron law in the clan, that is, everything is in the interests of the family, and no matter what kind of person's personal gains and losses should be put after the interests of the family! Thinking of this, Lu Hong couldn't help but be a little worried about being severely punished by his uncle. …,

Lu Zuo looked at his favorite nephew in front of him, in fact, he was also very uncomfortable, but there was no way, the economic pillar of the family had been blocked by Li Su, and there was no possibility of breaking it at all, although with so many years of savings in the clan, it could last for several years, but what should happen after a few years?

"Big brother, Hong'er is also angry, that's why she said the crazy things above, and please don't blame the big brother!" At this moment, Lu You next to him was Lu Hong's father after all, so he pleaded for his son.

Lu Zuo didn't really want to punish Lu Hong, so when he heard Lu You's plea, he nodded immediately, but he still reprimanded a few words with a straight face, which also made Lu Hong, who had lost all his arrogance, retreat, and only himself and his younger brother Lu You were left in the hall.

"Big brother, do we really have no choice this time for the Fan Yang Lu clan?" Seeing his son leave sadly, Lu You suddenly sighed and asked again. In fact, he knew the answer to this question, but he couldn't help but ask it again.

"Brother, our Lu family's financial income has been completely blocked by Li Su, as long as the other party doesn't open his mouth, we don't want to have any big income in the future, and my Lu family is such a huge family, the daily expenses are not a small number, if we are really trapped by Li Su for a few years, sitting on the empty mountain, then our Lu family can only be disbanded!" Lu Zuo explained with a wry smile on his face again. Lu You is not only his younger brother, but also in the position of Youcheng, and he is also a banner of the Dongyang Lu clan in the imperial court, so he, as the eldest brother and patriarch, is also very polite to him.

"However, Li Su was originally in an opposing position with our five surnames and seven hopes, and now that he has such an opportunity to knock us into the abyss, in this favorable situation, will he really agree to let us go Fan Yang Lu's family?" Regarding Lu You's understanding of Li Su, he knew that His Royal Highness the King of Qi was not a good person, and if anyone really provoked him, there would definitely be no good end.

"Don't worry about this, Li Su actually has his own concerns, so he doesn't dare to go too far, and even when we meet tomorrow, I can still ask for some benefits from the other party!" Lu Zuo looked confident when he said it, as if he really knew Li Su very well? RS
