Chapter 174: Heart-to-Heart Communication

Under Lu Li's every inquiry, coupled with some of his own speculations, he finally sorted out the grievances between Chen Hu and Xiaoman, and at this time, there were still two days before Chen Hu arrived in Shangjing, and five days before Wangshu's full moon banquet.

"Lu Li, how are you preparing over there?" Wei Xiuyuan rushed in and asked.

Lu Li put down his pen and raised his head, "The honor guard and the sedan chair have been arranged, and Chen Hu will get off at the city gate directly, transfer to the sedan chair, and be sent to the palace by the honor guard." What about you? ”

Wei Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief, "It's all arranged, there is a Ministry of Etiquette in the palace, don't worry." ”

After speaking, Wei Xiuyuan looked around at no one, and couldn't help pouting and complaining: "This emperor is really, Chen Hu was obviously driven to Cannes because he made a mistake before, and now he wants to welcome him back, even if he wants to welcome him back, it is really ironic to declare that Chen Hu is to observe the people's feelings for the emperor." ”

"Okay, the wood is done, what are you complaining about?" Lu Li got up, "Go out for a walk, I have something to tell you." ”

Wei Xiuyuan immediately became vigilant, "Is it about Chen Hu?" Are you going to do it, are you ready? If this is not successful, it is a crime of murder! ”

Looking at the other party's nervous appearance, Lu Li chuckled, stretched out his hand and dragged Wei Xiuyuan over, and forcibly took the person out.

It is true that he wants to avenge Xiaoman, but Lu Li is not stupid, he is not to the point of burning Chen Hu with jade.

Walking out of the study, Lu Li took Wei Xiuyuan to the city gate.

The soldiers guarding at the gate saw the two coming, and hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Grandpa Guo! Lord Wei! Are the two of you preparing for the little marquis to enter Beijing? “

Wei Xiuyuan was about to deny it, but Lu Li nodded first, "Indeed, there are still some details that need to be confirmed, you guys are on duty, Master Wei and I go up to take a look, you don't have to follow." ”

"Yes!"

The two of them went up to the highest part of the city tower together, and the style on the top was extraordinarily large, and the flag fluttered whirringly.

Wei Xiuyuan turned sideways, looked at Lu Li, who had gone up to the city tower and stared into the distance, but didn't say a word, and couldn't help asking, "Lu Li, what do you want to do?" ”

The two were obviously the most familiar before, but now, he can't see through each other more and more.

"Xiuyuan, I told the emperor before that Xiaoman and I will return to Bishui Village sooner or later." Lu Li did not answer Wei Xiuyuan's words, but said something that was ten thousand miles different from the other party's question.

Wei Xiuyuan frowned, "So what?" ”

"Since you have to leave sooner or later, it's better to clean up all these grievances and grievances before leaving." When it comes to the word "clean up", Lu Li is particularly heavy.

The wind was too strong on the city tower, and Wei Xiuyuan shivered unconsciously.

He closed his eyes and shook his head, throwing out all those messy thoughts, and then asked, "Do you really want to avenge Xiaoman?" ”

Without waiting for Lu Li to answer, Wei Xiuyuan shook his head violently, and muttered in a low voice: "No, now is not the best time at all, the day Chen Hu comes back, the emperor and the eldest princess will be present, and there are so many people, do you really want to embarrass Chen Hu in front of so many people?" ”

"Let's not talk about what will happen to you, just talk about Xiaoman and your child Wangshu, think about them, if there is no you, who will take care of them?"

"Orphans and widows, I feel pitiful when I think about it, Lu Li, how can you bear it?!"

Lu Li listened to it with a headache, "Who told you that I was going to do it here, what have you been thinking about all day, in your eyes, am I the kind of impulsive and irresponsible man?" ”

Wei Xiuyuan was speechless for a while, and muttered after a while: "Then you ......"

"Of course I want to take revenge, but I don't know it, it's best to let Chen Hu himself not know who did it." After speaking, Lu Li turned to look at Wei Xiuyuan, and suddenly knocked on the other party's head playfully, "Have you learned?" ”

Wei Xiuyuan, who was knocked on the head, was stunned for a while before he reacted, but when he wanted to knock it back, Lu Li had already gone down the city tower, Wei Xiuyuan ran downstairs angrily, and caught up with Lu Li in three steps and two steps.

He grabbed Lu Li's wrist and forcibly made the other party stop, and then gasped and asked, "Then what are we going to do in the city tower, these things can be said at home!" ”

Lu Li frowned, glanced at Wei Xiuyuan strangely, and said confidently: "Of course, it's to confirm the final details, otherwise what do you think?" ”

After speaking, Lu Li broke away from Wei Xiuyuan's hand and strode forward.

Wei Xiuyuan, who was left alone, jumped to his feet in anger, how could he feel as if he had been tricked by Lu Li! Who knew that what Lu Li said to the guards just now was true! He thought it was a lie to deceive the guards!

But at that time, it was useless to complain, because Lu Li had already disappeared into the flow of people in a big stride, Wei Xiuyuan wanted to chase Lu Fu, but the fast run just now had already exhausted his physical strength, and he was running at this time, but it was no longer possible.

Lu Li returned to the Lu Mansion and deliberately walked lightly into the outer room, the door of the bedroom was closed, and the room was very quiet. Lu Li paused for a moment, and then looked in through a layer of window paper, there was only Xiao Man in the room, she was sitting on the chair in a daze at this time, the whole person was motionless, her eyes were dumbfounded, and there was a sadness between her eyebrows.

There is no need to ask, Lu Li also knows what the other party is worried about.

The last time Xia Wanrou came to find Xiaoman, she often sat in the house in a daze, and every time she dismissed people, for fear of being discovered. Although Xiao Man occasionally happily teases Wang Shu, he is also awkward when facing him, and he can't lift his spirits.

Lu Li looked at the door for a while, thinking in his heart whether he could directly explain this matter to Xiao Man.

But Xiaoman never told him, presumably he also had his own considerations, in case he rashly broke it, what would Xiaoman think?

After thinking about it, Lu Li was very entangled, Xu was thinking about it wholeheartedly, and he had always been vigilant and didn't even notice that the door outside was open.

As soon as Jade came in, she saw Lu Li standing at the door of the bedroom in a daze, and out of courtesy, she hurriedly curtched and saluted, "Grandpa Guo." ”

Lu Li came back to his senses at this time, and nodded absentmindedly, "Hmm." ”

"Madame is in the house, why don't you go in?" Jade asked curiously.

Lu Li coughed lightly, turned around and sat aside, and was silent for a long time before he said: "Jade, you go out first, I have something to do with Xiaoman, you are guarding at the door, no one is allowed to come in, do you hear?" ”

The man also looked serious in the past, so Jade didn't dare to ask more, and after a courtesy, he turned around and went out to guard.

He decided, the two have been a family since they became married, since they are a family, they naturally have to share weal and woe, and now seeing Xiao Man's restlessness, Lu Li naturally can't sit idly by.

Moreover, inform Xiaoman in advance that if something really happens at that time, Xiaoman will not be helpless.

After paying attention, Lu Li sat on the collapse and took a deep breath, got up and walked to the door of the bedroom, and raised his hand to push the door open.

"Squeak-"

The heavy wooden door made an overwhelming sound, and Xiao Man in the room raised his head suddenly, his originally clear eyes were full of doubts and confusion at this time, and Lu Li became more and more distressed.

He stepped forward, sat down in front of Xiao Man, considered his words, and said carefully: "Xiao Man, there are still two days, and Chen Hu will come back." ”

As expected, Xiao Man, who was directly opposite, really trembled, her cheeks quickly turned red, her eyes dodged, and she didn't dare to face Lu Li at all.

"Don't worry, I'm not here to question you." Lu Li stretched out his hand to hold Xiao Man's, gently pinched it twice, and said softly: "Xiao Man, we are husband and wife, we have something to face together, although you didn't say it, but I can also see that you have been restless these days, it must be for Chen Hu's affairs, right?" ”

Xiao Man hurriedly shook his head, but under Lu Li's gaze, he quickly lowered his head again and responded softly: "Yes, I am indeed because of ...... However, it wasn't my fault that this matter was, it was all Chen Hu at the time, and he-"

"I know it all." Lu Li clenched Xiao Man's hand, looked at each other quietly with dark eyes, and said: "You were wronged at the beginning, and Chen Hu was not able to receive the punishment he deserved because he was deeply favored by the emperor, but now that I am back, Xiao Man, you don't have to carry these things alone." ”

"Lu Li, he is the child of the eldest princess." Xiao Man frowned and worried.

Lu Li chuckled, "Then you are still my wife, rest assured, I will never let you be hurt and wronged in the slightest, as for the last revenge, I will definitely get it back." ”

Looking at the man's firm face and the deep voice, Xiao Man's heart that had been anxious for a long time suddenly settled down, she breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the other party's eyes and nodded gently, "Okay, I believe in you." ”

As she spoke, she clasped Lu Li's big palm, "Then you have to be careful." ”

Lu Li raised his lips and smiled, and reached out to take Xiao Man into his arms.

Although he is not sure what will happen in two days, Xiao Man is a lot more relieved at this time, maybe because of Lu Li's presence, as long as he is there, there is no need to worry about anything.

"That's right!"

Lu Li was startled by the sudden sound of the person in his arms, and he hurriedly lowered his head and cared: "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Man pushed Lu Li away, looked at the man with blinking eyes, and smiled crookedly: "There are still a few days before the child's full moon, have you thought about who you invited?" ”

The man's face was full of black lines, and this person was still worried about Chen Hu, but it was only half a cup of tea, and he began to plan the full moon banquet with a smile.......

"Have you figured it out?" Xiao Man grabbed Lu Li's arm and shook it coquettishly: "Lu Li, there are only five days left, you draw up the list early, I can arrange the seats as soon as possible, Lu Li, Lu Li-"

Lu Li, who couldn't stand Xiaoman's coquettishness the most, hurriedly interrupted, "I know, I will go to draw up a list." ”

Xiao Man raised his lips and smiled, then got up and patted Lu Li's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Then hurry up, I will definitely do a decent job at that time." ”

"A few days ago, I sent someone to Bishui Village, and now..."Lu Li raised his eyebrows, "Presumably my father-in-law is about to arrive in Beijing." ”
