"Of course not!"

Lu Shangxuan hurriedly replied.

"Then Lord Lu will sit honestly and eat more, and don't move around at will."

Seeing this, Lu Shangxuan didn't know that he had offended Lord Shangshu, his face turned pale, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he could only sit down in a daze.

And Dou Lianyi didn't even bother to give him a look, and walked away behind Lin Shangshu.

Qin Mu stood beside her, and the two looked like they were unexpectedly compatible, as if they were born to be one-on-one.

Lu Shangxuan couldn't help but be a little suspicious in his heart, he picked up his wine glass and talked happily with the officials who came to toast, but the corner of his eye never moved away from their backs for a moment.

His subordinates had reported that they had seen the young lady and a handsome boy talking happily in a street shop, but he hadn't taken it to heart.

didn't expect to see it today, but the more Lu Shangxuan thought about it, the more unhappy he felt.

Regardless of whether he has a husband and wife relationship with Dou Lianyi, he will not allow anyone to try to get his own things.

Coincidentally, at this time, a short-sighted official came over, deliberately picked up his wine glass and sneered at Lu Shangxuan: "I can't see that Lord Lu is so broad-minded, and when he sees his wife so close to Qin Gongzi, he can calm down, and he is really a person who can achieve great things." ”

Lu Shangxuan's face stiffened, and he glanced at the other party and it was not easy to have a seizure, after all, he was the head of the Internal Affairs Office, and the people around the emperor had to endure it if he gave him a few guts.

"Hehe," Lu Shangxuan raised his wine glass with a smile and responded: "Lord Steward, you can't talk nonsense, this is the honor that Lord Shangshu gave to my wife, and others can't ask for it if they want it." ”

"Really? It would be best if Lord Lu could think like this, I'm afraid that what he thinks in his heart is not what he says. ”

Seeing that Lu Shangxuan's face was as usual and there was nothing unusual, the head of the Internal Affairs Office sneered, and after a glass of wine, he turned around and left.

Not far away, Dou Lianyi took advantage of Lin Shangshu's departure for a while, blocked his mouth by raising his wine glass, and asked Qin Mu in a low voice, "Why did you appear in Shangshu Mansion?" ”

"What's so strange about that? I'm a businessman after all, and I'll do what makes me profitable. ”

Qin Mu didn't hide it, and responded with a generous smile.

"I can't see that Qin Gongzi has such a good method, even the world-famous Saishen Doctor can be found, why don't you teach me?"

"It's easy to say, I won't agree to someone else, if it's Miss Dou, you come to ask, then I will know everything, and I will say everything."

That sincere appearance made Dou Lianyi unable to find fault for a while, so he could only curse in his heart.

However, no matter how itchy Qin Mu's behavior was, at least his ease of maneuvering among the major officials still made Dou Lianyi admire.

Even the maids who passed by could chat a few words, and after a while, he was faintly in control of the audience.

Later, Lin Shangshu even went back to the house directly to accompany his wife, Dou Lianyi looked at Qin Mu, who seemed to have become the host of the banquet not far away, and squinted his eyes slightly.

"What is Miss Dou doing hiding here alone?"

Just when Dou Lianyi was thinking about whether she could sneak back to the house first, or take this opportunity to inquire about something with Qin Mu, a voice suddenly sounded from behind her, almost scaring her to jump.

Who would have thought that Qin Mu was obviously talking and laughing with the head of the Internal Affairs Office not long ago, and suddenly appeared behind her in the next second.

"What the hell does Qin Gongzi do, why does he always walk without making any noise!"

Dou Lianyi scolded him with some dissatisfaction, causing Qin Mu to chuckle lowly, as if he thought it was very interesting.

"Walking the rivers and lakes, you must have some effort, otherwise you will not be bullied."

"Who dares to bully you, Qin Gongzi, isn't that against the entire Shangshu Mansion?"

Dou Lianyi deliberately mocked him.

And Qin Mu didn't care, but handed over the teacup in his hand and said, "I just ate so many sweets, and I haven't stopped taking a bite, let's drink a cup of tea to relieve my greasy." ”

Hearing this, Dou Lianyi's face flushed slightly, and he snatched the tea in shame, and didn't forget to glare at Qin Mu.

How did she know that the other party would be paying attention to her all the time.

After Dou Lianyi took a sip of tea, Qin Mu said slowly: "Although I am just a businessman, I can get the protection of Shangshu Mansion, so why is Miss Dou the daughter of Dou Xiang, but she is still bullied by her husband?" ”

He paused, as if he didn't notice Dou Lianyi's instantly sinking face, and continued to ask curiously: "What's more, Miss Dou's husband is just a county king who can't succeed to the throne, with all due respect, this is really a bit puzzling." ”

"You investigate me!"

Hearing this, Dou Lianyi finally couldn't help it, she clenched the teacup in her hand tightly, and looked at Qin Mu with caution in her eyes for the first time.

For some reason, Qin Mu looked at the vigilance in Dou Lianyi's eyes, and felt slightly uncomfortable in his heart.

For this reason, he even patiently explained: "Miss Dou doesn't need to panic, it's not that I intend to investigate you, it's just that I, a businessman, is always used to taking the initiative, and I actually have no ill will towards you." ”

Lu Shangxuan, who had been paying attention here, saw that the two of them seemed to be in conflict, so he walked over quickly and grabbed Dou Lianyi's waist.

Then he said to Qin Mu solemnly: "Master Qin, although you are the honored guest of Lord Shangshu, but Ripple is my wife, please don't do more unnecessary harassment." ”

Dou Lianyi only felt that the temperature from her waist made her feel disgusting, she frowned and wanted to get rid of it, but she was shackled by Lu Shangxuan, and she couldn't move for a while.

"Lord Lu is really funny when he says this."

Qin Mu's gaze fell lightly on Lu Shangxuan's face, and then swept over his hand holding Dou Lianyi, and said in a soft tone: "I originally thought that Lord Lu had no feelings for his wife, but I didn't expect to see it today, but I didn't think it was so. ”

"Who said that I have no feelings for Ripples, this kind of thing is ridiculous!"

Lu Shangxuan responded with some disdain.

And Dou Lianyi couldn't help but flip her wrist, and the silver needle flashed between her fingers.

If Lu Shangxuan doesn't let go, don't blame her for being polite!

"In that case, Ding."

Qin Mu beckoned, and a small servant trotted over from not far away, bending down respectfully and waiting for the master's order.

And Qin Mu turned his head sideways and almost silently commanded in Xiao Ding's ear.

"Yes, master."

Xiao Ding took the order and left quickly.

"What is Qin Gongzi doing?"

Lu Shangxuan's heart was uneasy, he frowned, he was really a little unsure of Qin Mu's behavior.

"It's just a small experiment," Qin Mu bent his eyebrows and said with a chuckle, "Soon Lord Lu will know." ”
