93. Fengshen Shulang

When Lu Jianghuai's mother Lu came to General Su's mansion to propose marriage, both families thought that the marriage was about to come true, including Lu Jianghuai himself. He was absent-minded in his work every day, and even when practicing martial arts and boxing, he was often distracted. As soon as he thought of Su Xi, he could not suppress his joy.

He fell in love with her at first sight since he met at Jingxi Horse Farm three years ago. At that time, he watched her hat fall off from her face, revealing her beautiful and delicate little face, and was at a loss and her watery eyes were wet. From then on, her appearance was deeply engraved in his heart. When he woke up in the middle of the night, his mind was often her face. He wanted her, wanted to spoil her, and wanted to marry her home and love her.

In the three years when Su Xi left the capital, Lu Jianghuai was also waiting for her.

Originally, he was almost giving up, but she came back without warning. She became more outstanding and eye-catching than before.

The music of the piano music in the northwest mattress captured the hearts of many talented men in the Wangmen. Lu Jianghuai was afraid that others would find his treasure, so he quickly asked his mother, General Lu, to propose marriage. When he heard that Yin was quite satisfied with him, he didn't fall asleep all night, hoping that he could marry Su Xi as soon as possible, and he would treat her wholeheartedly.

Just when he was secretly happy, an imperial edict came down and broke all his hopes.

During that time, Lu Jianghuai was depressed and no one saw him. Until the day Su Xi and Wei Qing got married, he looked at him from a distance. Su Xi was wearing a red wedding dress, her face was hidden under the gold-plated veil, and only her white hands were exposed. It was also a scene like today, such as red silk, red candles, and red lanterns. He didn't dare to look at it anymore, so he hurriedly left on a horse.

At this moment, Lu Jianghuai looked at Su Xi blankly and forgot to move.

Today, Su Xi wore a light red dress with a five-color plum blossom, a bun, and only a pair of jade-leafed golden cicada hairpins, white teeth and moth eyebrows, looking forward to the beautiful beauty. After a few days, she changed from a pretty little girl to a beautiful bride.

The other man who made her turn from a girl to a woman was another man. Lu Jianghuai's hand holding the reins tightened, for a while, and opened his mouth and said hoarsely: "Madam Wei."

Su Xi did not expect to meet Lu Jianghuai here. Earlier, Yin mentioned the marriage between the two, and now she was a little embarrassed to meet. She pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment, then raised her smile and smiled openly, "Brother Lu." Seeing that only Lu Jianghuai was the only one today, she did not see Lu Huishu, she immediately said, "Sister Shu hasn't come?"

Lu Jianghuai said: "It is not convenient for my younger sister to learn from the girl's red at home."

Lu Huishu is also at the age of getting married. Lu is busy visiting her marriage recently. Seeing that her daughter is careless and is no different from a boy, Lu is not allowed to go out in order to help her cultivate her character, so she is not allowed to go out and let her study embroidery wholeheartedly.

When Su Xi thought of the heroic and generous girl Lu Huishu was locked up at home for embroidery, she couldn't help but burst into laughter. Her cheeks were full and her apricot eyes were curved. "I haven't seen Sister Shu for many days, I don't know how Sister Shu is doing."

Lu Jianghuai looked confused and said in accordance with her words: "You can come out to meet you someday."

Su Xi nodded and said good things. Seeing that it was not early, he did not say much to Lu Jianghuai and asked him to go back earlier. He got on the Cuitai Qingyu Cart in the King of Jin Mansion.

Just as Su Xi was stepping onto the carriage, a servant behind her pushed the cart by the cart. The goods were too high and blocked the servant's view. The boxwood cage on the top was shaking and fell above her head.

Su Xi suddenly realized it.

Lu Jianghuai was shocked: "Be careful—"

As he said that, he stepped forward and blocked Su Xi. The box hit Lu Jianghuai's back. A double cloisonné enamel bottle was filled with, and it fell to the ground and smashed. He only groaned and frowned.

If it weren't for Lu Jianghuai, the bottle would probably have hit Su Xi's head.

Today, Tinglu and Tingli were accompanying Su Xi out, and Tingyan, who knows martial arts, were not there. So when the box fell, no one noticed it.

The servant who was pushing the cart apologized repeatedly, and his expression seemed to be about to cry. Not to mention that he almost injured the prince's wife, this gift alone would not be enough for him to compensate...

Su Xi looked at the broken porcelain on the ground, looked at Lu Jianghuai again, and said in shock: "Brother Lu..."

Lu Jianghuai forced a smile and said to her: "Go up, I'm fine."

Su Xi wanted to say something, but when he turned his head, he saw Wei Xu standing at the gate of Prince Yu's Mansion with expressionless face. Wei Xu also saw the scene just now, and his expression changed and was about to come, but because Lu Jianghuai was closer, he took the lead.

Wei Qing's eyes were slightly cold and he quickly recovered as usual. He stepped forward and looked Su Xi up and down, "But where was he injured?"

Su Xi shook her head and said no.

Wei Qing then looked at Lu Jianghuai and said politely: "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for helping me. Is Mr. Lu seriously injured?"

Lu Jianghuai said: "A small matter is something, Prince Wei doesn't have to worry about it."

However, Wei Qing was not a person who liked to owe favors, and this person had ulterior motives for Su Xi. He asked Li Hong to invite the doctor, and asked the doctor to go to General Weiyuan's mansion to see Lu Jianghuai's wounds. He then sent a few thank-you gifts to General Weiyuan's mansion.

Back at Yunjinzhai, Su Xi came out of the clean room after taking a shower. Seeing Wei Qing sitting on the upturned desk with a cold face and reading a book, she knew that he was angry about what happened today. She thought she was open and honest, and had never thought about Lu Jianghuai that she shouldn't have. Today, Lu Jianghuai just helped her block the box. Did he ignore her until now?

Su Xi pouted, thinking that Wei Lu was too stingy. He ignored her and she didn't talk to him. So he twisted his head and went to bed to sleep.

Perhaps it was too tired today. Su Xi just wanted to close her eyes and squint for a while, but she didn't expect that she would fall asleep. When she woke up, the light in the room was still on, and the night was already deep, but Wei Xu was still sitting behind the table, lit a lamp at his hand, illuminating his handsome face.

When is it? Why hasn't he rested yet?

Su Xi was no longer angry at this time. She got off the bed barefoot, rubbed her eyes, and walked behind Wei Xu, muttering, "Why is Cousin Tingzhou not sleeping yet?"

Wei Qing put down the book in her hand and saw that she was not wearing shoes. A pair of white and tender jade feet were placed on the dark blanket, and the bright coloured elixir dyed on his ten fingernails. He hugged her to his legs, and naturally wrapped her feet with her palms, saying, "It's cold, why don't you even wear shoes?"

Su Xi opened her mouth and yawned, and wrapped it around his neck, "You ignore me, don't care if I wear shoes."

He has come back and is only concerned about reading books.

Wei Qing pinched her nose and let her yawn back halfway. "Shouldn't I be angry?"

"Um." Su Xi's cheeks flushed and she quickly patted his hand off, "I've told you a long time ago that Brother Lu and I have nothing to do with... Today I just met occasionally and said a few words."

Wei Qing held her hands on her waist and let her face him, her voice low: "It's not okay to say a few words."

She, a little fool, has no affection for Lu Jianghuai, but the look of Lu Jianghuai looking at her was not that simple.

What's more, she believed Lu Jianghuai's words at the beginning and left for three years. Wei Lu thought that she had not taken action against Lu Jianghuai, and that she had done her best.

Su Xi slowly said "Oh". She sat upright, lay beside him and muttered quietly: "Stingy."

Wei Qing raised his eyebrows without comment.

In this regard, no man can be generous.

Seeing that it was almost dawn, Su Xi said, "I will stop talking to him in the future. Can I sleep now? It will be dawn if I don't sleep anymore. Is there anything that I have to finish watching tonight?"

Wei Lu paused, said ok, then blew out the light and hugged her to the bed. Su Xi now liked to sleep in his arms. His arms were spacious and there was a kind of elegant fragrance. After a while, he became sleepy in a daze.

Just as Su Xi was about to fall asleep, Wei Xu pinched her face and woke her up, "Young, I have something to tell you."

Su Xi hated him the most, always wake him up, pouted, and said in a sleepy tone: "What?"

Wei Qing kissed her pouting mouth and whispered: "I'm going to Luozhou for a trip."

After a while, Su Xi digested the contents of his words, slowly lifted up his thick eyelashes, and stared at him in a daze, "When?"

Wei Hun said: "The day after tomorrow."

Su Xi didn't say anything, then turned her back to him and said, "I'm going to sleep."

Wei Qing turned her over again, pressed her forehead, and coaxed her softly: "Wait for me to come back at home, huh?"

Su Xi was a little angry and refused to take his tricks. She pushed his chest and said, "Why are you talking to me now?"

Wei Xu hugged her and explained, "The Yellow River flood, Your Majesty gave me this matter today..."

The document he just read was about the floods in the Yellow River. Emperor Zhaoyuan originally handed over this matter to Wei Yuan to handle, but today Wei Yuan got married. Emperor Zhaoyuan gave him a few days off, and the matter of controlling the flood naturally fell on him.

A while ago, the Yellow River flooded, the river channel broke, and more than a dozen places along the coast suffered floods, and thousands of people were killed and injured. This matter was urgent, so we decided to set off the next day.

Wei Qing gently stroked her cherry lips with his thumb, "I will come back early, I will leave Li Hong in the mansion. If there is anything, I will ask him to notify me immediately." In addition, he explained some other things, including not allowing Su Xi to go out to meet other men.

If it weren't for the danger of the disaster along the Yellow River, he had indeed thought of taking Su Xi with him. But she was too spoiled and worked hard all the way, and he was worried that her body would not be able to bear it. In addition, the epidemic in Luozhou was spreading, so he would be even more unlikely to let her take risks.

For the sake of Su Xi's safety, Wei Xu arranged more than a dozen people inside and outside Yunjinzhai, guarding him like an iron bucket. He also instructed Li Hong that when he was away, people from Ji'antang would not be allowed to step into Yunjinzhai.

It was soon the day when Weiqi set off. Su Xi stood at the door and saw Weiqi farewell. He followed the officials who were accompanying him. She was embarrassed to be so tired of him. But Weiqi became much thicker and stood with her hand for almost a quarter of an hour. Finally, she rolled the cloak, blocked the view of the people behind her, lowered her head and kissed her little mouth, and said slowly: "What should I do."

Su Xi inexplicably: "What?"
