Chapter 8: The Door-to-door Fiancé
The man in brocade clothes tilted his head and just glanced at the dusty plaque of the Duke of Wei's mansion, the peach color penetrated the green shade, and the corners of his eyes were cold, and he couldn't arouse half of his emotions in a mansion that had long since fallen: "Qin Zheng, please see the Duchess of Wei." The literary quality is polite, not humble or silent, but the slight retreat of the footsteps shows that this person does not want to have too much negotiation and involvement with the Wei State Mansion, he straightens his back, and Rao is Rihua can also reflect the conceit and alienation in the eyes of the man.
If he hadn't said it to Lu Yixuan, obviously, he would have regarded the girl in the thorn hairpin cloth skirt who walked out of the mottled bronze door as the maid of the Lu family.
Lu Yixin was not annoyed, she grabbed the long winding hair around her ear casually: "Mother has been sick for a long time and it is inconvenient to see each other on the couch, what you are looking for is me Lu Yixuan." ”
The man was stunned, he didn't react at all, the girl in front of him who walked out of the Wei Mansion with a bucket like a handyman turned out to be the little lady of the Nanping Lu family?
"Are you Lu Yixuan?" His brows were furrowed, his eyes were full of surprise, and when he saw the girl nodding, there was a hint of unconcealed sneer at the corner of his lips.
"Lord Qin, please say something." Lu Yixuan was accustomed to the banter and ridicule of others, she didn't want to waste her time on a child of a family, so she simply lifted the bucket to the side and scooped the flower scoop and splashed out a clear spring well water, the water droplets penetrated through the clouds and the shade of the trees, and she was waiting for the man to speak.
Qin Zheng was stunned by no one in this girl's eyes, but he didn't show it, Lu Yixuan said, "Lord Qin", obviously, he didn't treat him as a marrying person at all: "In this case, Qin Zheng is blunt, the Empress Dowager once said that as long as the bronze sparrow gold bead returns to Shengjing, you and I will set the wedding date, I don't know where the gold bead is now." He spoke loudly, as if he had no intention of shirking.
Lu Yixin straightened up when she heard the words, raised her hand to wipe the fine sweat on her forehead, there were no flaws in the man's words, and the aspects were very good, but yesterday she made a fuss about Yue Huazhai, and the bronze finch and gold beads were not in her hand Qin Zheng knew it earlier, and she still wanted to make a good article, Lu Yixin was not very comfortable, if she wanted her to say it, this man is indeed clear-eyed and magnificent, but Rao is you can also feel that he is not easy to get along with and difficult to deal with at a glance, because his arrogance is condescending and bright.
To deal with such a man who is pretentious and thinks highly of himself, he should not follow his bend so Lu Yixuan shrugged his shoulders, in short.
"Lost." It seems to be a little innocent and regretful, but it is not muddy at all.
"What?"
"Lost." She repeated it again, impatiently.
Qin Zheng was stunned for a long time this time: "That is the token entrusted by the Empress Dowager to you and me, marriage matters, how can it be child's play!" The brocade clothes were dyed with three points of confusion and seven points of anger, but when the raunchy girl looked over with a fussy look, Qin Zheng suddenly felt that he seemed to be the one who had been trapped.
"Lord Qin," the little girl blinked, the beauty covered by her long eyelashes added a little arrogance in the brightness, her fingertips swept over the clear water, crystal clear, and her voice was warm and gentle without a trace of impatience, "You came to the Wei Mansion today, do you want to marry me?" ”
Marry me, the little lady of the Wei Mansion who has no power, no money, no fame, and even no one to speak of.
The warblers on the branches chirp.
Qin Zheng was completely stunned, and he didn't know whether to admit or deny it for a while.
"Since you don't want to marry me, why do you care where the gold bead is? People go to high places and water flows to low places, and if the Qin family wants to repent of marriage, there is nothing wrong with it. Lu Yixin replied for him, she was so embarrassed about things that made her daughter's family lose face, and she didn't even set off a ripple in her heart.
Qin Zheng had a moment of illusion that the girl's attitude seemed to be getting rid of a hot potato, it was ridiculous, the momentum of the Qin family was in full swing, he Qin Zheng was high and powerful, and he had never looked at any woman in his eyes, how could this little girl who was married with his fingertips bold and preemptive.
The man's suspicious look flickered on Lu Yixuan's face, he lifted the corner of his robe, and suddenly spread to his face and turned into contempt and contempt: "My Tao is the Wei State Mansion's strict family education and strict family law, but I don't want to be some rude, shameless people, who wear sinful bodies and don't want to repent, and they are still so arrogant." "Talking about the responsibility of marriage in public, I don't care about my reputation and the prestige of the Qin family, such a woman is really flattering - don't say that the tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs, the Lu family was supposed to make people treat each other coldly like wild dogs on the roadside, but when Qin Zheng turned around, he was stopped by the girl behind him.
The flower scoop fell into the bucket and splashed clear water.
"Qin Zheng," the voice behind her carried a slight chill that did not match the spring light of March, and she no longer called him "Lord", "I want to ask you to repeat what you just said again." ”
"No manners, no shame-" The man's thin lips opened lightly, and the moment he fell out of his mouth, he suddenly felt that there was a palm behind him and came with flying flowers on the wall, Qin Zheng was stunned and reacted very quickly, "Click", and had already grabbed the palm of the little girl's shining hand.
"Lu Yixuan, are you crazy?!" Qin Zheng had anger in the corners of his eyes, and he had a noble and indifferent temperament, he was a close attendant of the Son of Heaven and a protégé of Zaifu, and the dignitaries and dignitaries in Shengjing also had to give him thin noodles, how could it be the turn of a little girl to bully him, and he was angry and condensed in his mind.
Lu Yixuan is not tall, with a little anger when her eyes are sharp and bright, which is not to be underestimated, she did not try to break free from the man's clamps, but grinded her back molars word by word: "Lord Qin is in the fourth rank of the court, and his words and actions do not depreciate his identity, my father has not been cut down and taken away from the title, he is still the dignified Duke of Wei, and the descendants of the Lu family in this door are all behind the gate, and the hypocrites are not allowed to make a big fuss." ”
Qin Zheng squinted his eyes and let go of Lu Yixuan, it was the first time for him to look at the inconspicuous girl in front of him so carefully, he didn't expect that there was still one hidden in the Mansion of the Duke of Wei, such a pearl: "I, Qin Zheng, am a hypocrite?" He laughed, and at last he had two points of gloom that was different from the elegance of the mood.
He is proud of his high name, and everyone in Shengjing knows it.
Lu Yixuan rubbed her wrists, smoothed the creases on the cloth skirt, and pulled up the slightly messy hair, she was not in a hurry, and there was no timidity and retreat in her eyes: "Back then, Lord Cao Ning's bribery case implicated six departments for review, Lin Guozong and Lu Xuan committed suicide in fear of crime after three days in the prison of the Criminal Department, Ren Zaifu was angry and killed Zhou Dian Prison who was guarding the prisoner but drank and misbehaved, and then you became a protégé of Zaifu, the reason for this, I am afraid that the adults of the six departments are not very clear." Her voice was not loud, and it happened to fall into Qin Zheng's ears word for word.
The implication is that Lu Yixuan is pointing out that he killed people and planted blame in exchange for today's high-ranking officials.
