Lu Jiuyuan didn't speak again, and walked straight to the Tingfang Courtyard behind the Star Picking Hall.

Tao Yao paused, so he had to follow.

But she really felt that she didn't have to send it.

The two courtyards, one in front and one in the back, are so close to each other......

When he arrived at the gate of Tingfang Courtyard, Lu Jiuyuan stopped.

Tao Yao stood in front of the door, turned around and said politely, "Uncle Jiu, do you want to go in and sit down for a while?" ”

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her and nodded, "Okay." ”

Tao Yao: "......"

"What's wrong?" Lu Jiuyuan saw that she was still and looked at her in puzzlement.

Tao Yao came back to her senses and shouted in her heart, she was really just polite, and Lu Jiuyuan was not very busy, how could he ......

"It's fine." She smiled reluctantly, "Uncle Nine, please."

After entering the house, Tao Yao felt very embarrassed to stay, so he said: "At the banquet, Uncle Nine seems to have drunk a lot of wine, I'll go make you a cup of honey water and relieve the bar?" ”

Lu Jiuyuan bowed, "There is Mrs. Lao." ”

Tao Yao shook his head and fled to the ear room.

It was almost enough for her to return with the honey water.

Under the lamplight, the man sat on the soft couch, his hands propped on the small table, and gently kneaded his eyebrows.

Maybe it's because the lights are too soft, and the men who give people majesty and unattainable on weekdays have a sense of laziness and laziness on their bodies at this time.

A few strands of his jet-black sideburns fell, making the originally strict ascetic man seem to have an extra breath of fireworks.

Tao Yao always felt that Lu Jiuyuan tonight was different from usual.

Is it related to drinking?

Or maybe it's because of the night.

Because at night, it is always possible to relax unconsciously.

At this moment, Lu Jiuyuan, as rumored to be, frightened the enemy army, can stop children crying at night and kill decisive men, which is not quite right.

The man in front of him obviously gives people a very homely feeling......

Thinking of this, she shook her head and laughed at her whimsicality.

However, a beautiful man who is pleasing to the eye will always make people happy.

Tao Yao couldn't help but look at it twice.

Aside from his majestic and solemn temperament, this man is really good-looking.

In the whole world, I'm afraid it's hard to find a man who looks better than him.

Once again, she admired in her heart.

When Lu Jiuyuan raised her eyes, she quickly collected her nymphomaniac and approached the past, "Uncle Jiu, honey water." ”

Lu Jiuyuan glanced at her, let out a low "um" in his voice, and reached out to take it.

After drinking the honey water, he put down the cup, got up and said, "You rest early, I'll go back first." ”

Tao Yao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said, "Uncle Nine walks slowly." ”

Lu Jiuyuan paused, pursed his lips and glanced at her, but finally didn't say anything more, turned around and left.

Seeing his figure, he disappeared into the night, Tao Yao saw that it was not early, so he washed and slerose.

……

After going to greet the old lady the next day, Tao Yao, Wang and Qin were about to go to the garden for a walk, but at this time, Uncle Chen hurriedly entered Fushoutang.

"Why are you in such a hurry? But what happened? Wang wondered.

Tao Yao and the Qin clan also felt strange.

After a while, the old lady took Mama Lan's hand and came out.

"Second lady, third lady, ninth lady, there is a holy decree in the palace, please go to the front yard to listen to the decree." Uncle Chen walked over and reported in a trembling voice.

Hearing this, the three of them glanced at each other, and they were all surprised in their hearts, why did the holy decree suddenly come to the palace.

The three of them felt strange in their hearts, but they didn't say much, followed the old lady, and went to the front yard to listen to the order.

When a few people arrived, except for those who were not in the house, everyone else had already arrived.

For a while, the front yard was full of kneeling people.

It was the official of the Ministry of Rites who carried the decree, and when he saw that everyone had arrived, he slowly unfolded the decree and read it out.

"Fengtian Chengyu, the emperor Zhao said, my beloved daughter Jingwen, Roujia is respectful, now it is the year of marriage, I heard that the eldest prince of the Lu Mansion is white, with both good looks and outstanding moral integrity, specially selected as a concubine, and the marriage will be completed on the next day!"

The officials of the Ministry of Rites read out a large list, but Tao Yao and others only remembered one sentence, that is, the emperor issued an order to select Lu Qingbai as Princess Jingwen's concubine and choose a day to complete the marriage.

All the people were amazed.

After all, Jingwen made a fuss yesterday, and thought that she had given up Lu Qingbai, but she didn't expect that today's emperor would issue an order to choose Lu Qingbai as a concubine.

Except for Lu Boyan, no one in the mansion was happy.

Princess Jingwen is notoriously rude and willful, but at the same time, she is the emperor's favorite princess.

It can be expected that when Princess Jingwen enters the mansion, the Lu family will be restless.

For a while, everyone was very depressed.

After the official of the Ministry of Rites read out the holy decree, seeing that the Lu family did not react, he immediately frowned, "Master Lu, take the decree." ”

Lu Boyan was overjoyed, and hurriedly pushed his son, "Qingbai, take the order!" ”

Lu Qing's white face was dead, and the whole person froze there, stupid, without any reaction.

"Master Lu, take the order." The official of the Ministry of Rites urged again.

Lu Qingbai came back to his senses at this time, got up with a heavy face and accepted the order.

Seeing that there was no joy on his face, the official couldn't help but take a second look.

When Lu Boyan saw it, he hurriedly said: "The emperor's grace is vast, and the dog is so happy." ”

The official nodded and ordered: "Then prepare well to welcome the princess to surrender, and it will be a good day in the near future." ”

"Yes, yes, I'll be prepared." Lu Boyan nodded hurriedly.

As soon as the official who passed the decree left, the old lady's face fell.

After returning to Fushoutang, she glared at Lu Boyan fiercely, pointed at his nose and scolded: "You don't have to be on the right path, you always want to be opportunistic and take shortcuts, and you will be able to accept it in the future!" ”

Lu Boyan was originally very happy, but when he heard this, his face stiffened, and he was not happy, "What did my mother say?" Why doesn't my son's mind be on the right path? Today's princess chose Qingbai as the concubine, but the mother should be happy about the good thing of the glorious lintel. ”

The old lady was so angry with him that she choked, "The glory of the Lu family has never relied on those nepotism. ”

She only hated herself for being soft-hearted, and always thought that the family should be full, and if she lived together, the relationship would not be estranged, so she didn't think about the separation of the family.

Thinking about it today, she should have given the big house earlier.

Lu Boyan said disapprerovingly: "This is not an ordinary nepotism, that is the emperor's daughter, Qing Bai is still the lord, and she will be able to rise to the top in the future, and even the prestige of our Lu Mansion can be raised to a higher level." ”

After hearing this, the old lady only felt ridiculous, "Your father and son are so incompetent, relying on women to rise to the top?" Also, the Lu Mansion does not need such prestige. ”

Lu Boyan's face changed, and his face sank, "I have always known that among the brothers, my mother looks down on me the most, but you are the mother, and my son has nothing to say, so he can only accept it."

But the princess's surrender to the Lu Mansion is a matter of supreme glory, and the mother should change her pedantic thinking and welcome the princess happily.

In the future, Qingbai will have a future, and he will not forget you, a grandmother. ”

The old lady was so angry with him that she couldn't speak, "You, you rebel......"

"Mother......" Tao Yao and the others were startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to support her.
