Su Ji explained that he did it on purpose.

If the Criminal Division comes to save people, it can only be done in private, but it is more convenient for Qi Shangzheng to lead a team of people forward, especially after he finds out that the county lord of Ding'an is also inside, he can't act easily.

"Su is ashamed, if it weren't for going around this circle, Miss Lu wouldn't have been injured."

Lu Anran was not annoyed by this, and said with his head bowed: "Young Master Su is thoughtful, and in this way, the county lord of Ding'an will also be restrained in the future." ”

Su Ji was surprised, in his heart, no matter how sensible a woman is, there will always be a little resentment, Lu Anran's expression was calm, but he also analyzed the pros and cons, and from her tone and tone, what she said was indeed what she thought in her heart, and she couldn't help but make Su Ji's eyes change a little when she looked at her.

"Miss Lu can rest assured that the county lord of Ding'an is narrow-minded, and he has suffered a big loss this time, and he must hate Lu Taotao the most now."

Su Ji smiled, "Moreover, after the day after tomorrow, the county lord of Ding'an may not have the heart to focus on other things." ”

Lu Anran was puzzled: "Why?" ”

"Nangong Zhi is coming back."

The lord of Ding'an is infatuated with Nangong Zhi, the prince of Wu'an, and everyone in the troublesome royal capital knows about it, and Lu Anran has also heard of it.

It stands to reason that the two of them have the right family background, and with the emperor's favor for the lord of Ding'an, she should also be fulfilled, but the emperor has not issued a decree on marriage.

The Hou Shizi of Wu'an is famous, talented, and a young man who has entered the cabinet and has a promising future, and how many women are secretly in love.

However, the husband and wife of the county lord of Ding'an, the daughter of the royal capital has both heart and no courage, so that Nangong is nineteen years old, and there is still no marriage match.

Before Su Ji said goodbye, he said to Lu Anran: "The escort that the prince asked me to find for you, you can see it first." ”

As soon as the door opened, a sturdy figure stepped in, wearing a dark red suit, a thin waist tied from a belt, and a ponytail was heroic.

The person who came deliberately stood on the edge of the screen, so that Lu Anran could see the place.

Lu Anran looked at his straight posture and delicate face, but the corners of his eyes and eyebrows could be seen with heroic spirit, and a touch of surprise crossed his eyes - it was actually a woman.

"Although Wufang is a woman, her hard work is good, and Miss Lu can rest assured." Su Ji said.

It wasn't until Su Ji left that Lu Anran came back to his senses and faced each other with Wufang.

"Wufang is his real name?"

Wufang shook his head and said, "There is only this one name." ”

Lu Anran felt that there should be a story in this, but not everyone had to expose their secrets/privates, since they could be under Yunqi's hands, it showed that this person was credible.

Looking at the woman's eyebrows, the peak of her eyebrows was cold, with a hint of evil, and it was different from Qi Shang's momentum of battlefield fighting, but wandered in the dark killing, blending into the indifference of bone and blood.

Yunqi was not there, Su Ji left the person and left, and Lu Anran had to put it away for the time being, and said, "I'll let Chunmiao clean a room and come out, it's not early, you go down first." ”

Wufang lowered his eyes, covering a pair of cold eyes, "Yes, Miss." ”

Lu Anran rubbed the corners of his forehead, and his brain, which had been attacked, seemed to ache faintly.

Mo Yan is a rough man, and his temperament is faceless and skinless, although he is reluctant, Lu Anran knows that he is repaying his life-saving grace, so he does not have any burden to command.

There is no difference, she is a woman, and she is not like Chunmiao, who is the son of the Lu family. For no reason, she can't treat Mo Yan as she commanded her to be a cow and a horse, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

March 3, Shangsi Festival.

Spring frolic, sacrificial feast and drink, qu water flowing.

After being attacked that day, Lu Anran recuperated at home for several days, only reading and writing, and occasionally making medicinal tea, which was also leisurely and elegant.

During this period, Chunmiao will always bring back the gossip from outside.

For example, the 28th Chengjun Academy opened classes, and invited the lion dance team to climb the heights, which had a good time. She also saw Miss Lu Er, who was more and more like a Jiangnan person, and made more friends with more young ladies around her.

Another major event is that the prince of Nangong, the prince of Wu'an, returned to the royal capital, and the scene was more enthusiastic than the lion dance at the gate of Chengjun Academy.

"The girls in the whole city have gone, on the streets, in restaurants and restaurants, even the low walls are full of people, and they smash the sachets and silk flowers in their hands on Nangong Shizi." Chun Miao was speechless, "The women in the royal capital are too crazy. ”

Lu Anran didn't move his brows, he swiped the ink, and the paper fell into smoke.

Nangong Shizi was not angry, and smiled at the big guy, he was really ...... when he laughed" Chunmiao racked her brains and came up with one, "Really handsome." ”

After Lu Anran finished writing the last word, he looked up at Chunmiao sideways in this posture, "Nangong Shizi is very handsome, but your young lady is thirsty." ”

Chunmiao immediately poured tea, and there was some confusion in her voice: "Miss, didn't you say that the prince of Nangong called the county lord of Ding'an to target him, why are those women so bold, and they are not afraid of the revenge of the county lord of Ding'an afterwards?" ”

In Chunmiao's heart, the county lord of Ding'an was a crazy woman, and she thought that her young lady didn't provoke much, so she was inexplicably troubled one after another.

"The noble lady doesn't want to provoke, because the family background is there, the common people have fewer scruples, and there are many of them, and then they ......" Lu Anran asked her: "Will the prince of Nangong choose one of them to be the wife of the prince?" ”

Chunmiao hurriedly shook her head, "How is it possible." ”

"Isn't that it?" Lu Anran picked up the tea bowl and said lightly: "In the eyes of the county lord of Ding'an, they are all ants. ”

After this excitement, it is today, the Shangsi Festival, and it is also the day of Lu Jianyu's spring banquet.

Lu Anran changed her clothes, Chunmiao squatted down and hung a sachet containing medicinal herbs on her waist, and hesitated: "Miss, it's not good for the slave to listen to the wind outside." ”

In previous years, there were also several banquets in the royal capital, most of which were close to the good get-together, whether it was to put running water wine or eat flower tea, it was very poetic and elegant.

However, this year, Lu Jianyu spilled out the post early, and invited all the sons and daughters of the few families in the royal capital city next to the portal, which naturally caused a lot of discussion.

"They secretly laughed and said, 'The two young ladies of the Lu family who have not left the pavilion hold a banquet, and the customs of Mengdu are really chic.' "Chunmiao learns to speak, and it is always vivid.

What made Chunmiao unhappy was that it was clear that Lu Jianyu wanted to be in the limelight, and she brought her young lady to be criticized.

In fact, Chunmiao specially inquired, Wang Ducheng is not without such cases, and besides, the people invited are all peers, get together to eat tea and drink, and have the right to do a small gathering in private, not so much exquisite.

Speaking of which, the royal capital families still don't look down on the people who came out of the wilderness in their eyes.

After calculating the time, the two packed up and went out, and Lu Anran said, "Is grandmother a fool?" ”

Chunmiao didn't dare to nod, so she could only rub her head secretly: "The old lady prefers the second lady." ”

Lu Anran smiled silently: "You are wrong, the Lu family is the first in my grandmother's heart." Now these grandmothers have long known it, but they are still landing Jianyu, why do you think it is? ”

"Slave maid...... I don't really understand. ”

Lu Anran looked at the sky, the blue sky was thousands of miles, a few white clouds were as light as smoke, and the sunlight penetrated and sprinkled, it was really a bright and brilliant day.

Mrs. Lu is unwilling to let the Lu clan fall, and always tries to 'turn the tide', so as not to have nowhere to put her whole body to compete and compete.

But she doesn't understand, or doesn't want to see clearly, a family is in decline, which one person can easily recover with a banquet.

The spring feast is held in a Zhuangzi outside the city, called 'Ya Xianju'.

No one knows who the owner of the Zhuangzi is, but it often hosts all kinds of drinking and feasting. The wonderful thing is that the people in the Zhuangzi are responsible for all the hospitality and service, and you only need to tell the other party according to your own ideas, and give enough silver, then you don't have to worry about other things, and you can keep it properly.

Lu Anran didn't know how Lu Jianyu found this place, it is undeniable that it is indeed very suitable for a family like the Lu family that is not in the royal capital and wants to hold a banquet to make friends.

Lu Anran and Chunmiao entered from the gate, as for Wufang, they didn't know where she was when they left Jiqingfang, but Lu Anran believed that she would follow secretly.

In the late spring of March, there are flowers on both sides of the road, decorated with various colors, and it is beautiful to celebrate.

In the largest garden, an octagonal pavilion was set up, and bamboo curtains were rolled up on all sides, and a man and a woman sat inside.

The man was dressed in a green coat and a hat, sitting upright like a clock, with a black chess piece in his hand, looking chic and calm from a distance, and when he got closer, he found that his eyebrows were close together, his expression was anxious, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead.

As for the woman opposite, Lu Anran can only see a back, and he can also get a glimpse of her outstanding demeanor. If the white clothes are light clouds, like narcissus in the lake, the cold fragrance takes a photo, and the fairy under the moon.

The others stood on either side, watching the chess without saying a word.

"Good!" With a shout, the originally silent scene was broken like a mirror in an instant.

The Confucian scholar who was playing chess stood up, made a scholarly salute with his hands, and then left the pavilion with a blushing face, unable to pay attention to the many laughter behind him.

"This is the fifth person to be defeated by Su Xiangxiang today, right?"

"Su Xiangxiang became famous after breaking the top ten chess games, and when she met her today, everyone wanted to have a trick with her, and I didn't know if the drunkard meant to drink."

"Let's go, let's take a look."

Several women passed past Lu Anran together, without even looking at it, and walked towards the octagonal pavilion with different purposes and interest.

To tell the truth, Lu Anran thinks that Lu Jianyu's banquet is not bad, there are flowers and tea, there are also fighting poems and music, plus meeting friends with chess here, which can be called the word 'elegance'.

It's just that Lu Jianyu, the host of the banquet, is not in a good mood now, with her back to everyone and looking at the direction of the Octagonal Pavilion with her nails, her face is cloudy.

She invited Su Xiangxiang to add some flowers to this spring banquet, but who knew that the other party would steal the limelight.

What a talented woman in the royal capital, heh, there is no consciousness as a guest at all!

But fortunately, Su Xiangxiang accepted it when he saw it, and after finishing another chess game, he took the maid down to change his clothes and left the star-studded octagonal pavilion.

Lu Jianyu's face improved a little, and she continued to entertain guests with a smile.

Therefore, when Lu Anran saw Lu Jianyu, she was like a flower and butterfly in the middle of different people, and her appearance of being comfortable and enjoying it often made Lu Anran deeply admired.

"The second sister is busy, don't bother her." Lu Anran planned to take Chunmiao around casually twice, and then pinch the hour to say goodbye to Lu Jianyu, which would be considered a complete journey.

There are a lot of people who come, but Zhuangzi is not small, with their own interests in pairs, or boating in the lake, or drinking tea on the shore, the interest comes to play a song, a wine order, the scenery is beautiful, and everything is fun and comfortable.

But no matter how big it is, it is the same Zhuangzi, and there are always familiar and unfamiliar bumps in the circle.

Lu Anran met someone unexpectedly under the corridor at this moment, and the two raised their eyes and looked at each other silently.
