Chapter 385

On the fifth day of June, Lu Qianjun, the ancestor of the Lu family, returned to Beijing in a carriage.

Easy and simple.

No one knew that in this ordinary carriage sat a person who was once so powerful that even the emperor was afraid of him.

He didn't go directly back to the uncle's house.

Instead, he got off the carriage at Zhengyangmen, leaned on a simple crutch, and walked slowly towards the palace gate.

The imperial eunuch who had been waiting here for a long time saw an old man with gray hair and hobbled steps walking towards him.

For a while, I was also heartbroken and emotional.

Fortunately, this old man is in good spirits, with a faint smile on his face, as gentle as an old man in a neighboring village.

The old eunuch saluted and greeted, and after a brief exchange of greetings, he quickly summoned a walking chariot.

Last time, Old General Lin talked freely with the emperor, and when he was drunk, he was sent out of the palace in a sedan chair.

This time when Lu Qianjun entered the palace, the emperor had someone prepare a chariot to show his honor.

Lu Qianjun hastily pushed back, and then sat up.

As far as the imperial study room, the emperor was already waiting.

Seeing that Lu Qianjun had aged a lot, and he no longer had the sharpness of a general in the past, he was stunned for a moment.

"Old man Lu!" The emperor couldn't help shouting as he stood up and walked out after the case.

This is what he often called when he was the prince.

Lu Qianjun's eyes were slightly red, as if he had also recalled many things in the past, and the expression on his face became vicissitudes.

"Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and you still look like you when you were young. It's no regret that the veteran can still see the Emperor for the rest of his life."

Lu Qianjun restrained his excitement, handed the crutches to the eunuch next to him, and knelt down, wanting to kowtow.

The emperor hastily stretched out his hand and personally pulled the man up.

Kneeling is fine, how can I really make him kowtow, won't this chill the old minister's heart.

During this stretching and support, the emperor also felt that this old minister was really old, and his steps were far worse than before.

Suddenly, even the cold-hearted and heartless emperor was moved with compassion.

On this day, the monarch and his ministers met again in the imperial study, and no one knew what they talked about.

However, the first Wuchang Bo entered and exited the palace on chariots, and was greeted and sent off by the imperial eunuch.

On this day, Lu Tianyao led Lu Tiancheng, brother Lu Weiyu, brother Lu Chengan, and Lu Linglong to wait outside the gate of the mansion.

Lu Zheng also led a lot of clan members to the side, and the younger generation in the clan didn't have so many opportunities to meet their ancestors.

Only Lu Xiangyang and the others followed Lu Weiyu to Zhuangzi, and they were the envy of the clan.

It was because Lu Weiyu was kind to his peers in the clan, and to Lu Xiangyang and the others.

Lu Zheng immediately took the side of the uncle's mansion when it came to Lu Sisi's matter.

Even if she wanted to separate herself from Lu Yuhua, she didn't hesitate.

Because he knew that his great-grandson could enjoy the kindness of the young lady in charge of the uncle's mansion, and his descendants would also be able to live well in the future.

Don't say that Lu Yuhua can't give him benefits now, even if he can, how long can he live?
Of course, it is more important to protect the interests of the children and grandchildren.

What's more, he went to Zhuangzishang a few years ago, and had a drink with his elder brother in the clan to reminisce about the old days.

Now seeing the downfall of Lu Yuhua's family, and seeing that his ancestors have all returned to Beijing, he knows that he is doing the right thing.

Lu Qianjun was helped out of the carriage by Ji Yanming, and he couldn't help smiling when he saw his descendants kneeling on the ground.

"Get up, what are you doing so loudly?"

Lu Tianyao got up quickly, before the others dared to get up, Lu Weiyu stepped forward and saluted again.

"Ancestor."

She went to Zhuangzi on the eighth day of March.

The old ancestor refused to let her go north, so she followed Mr. Lingfeng to the hot spring villa of His Royal Highness.

After that, I went out to play again, but did not return to Zhuangzi.

Today, the ancestor returned home, and she should also come forward to pay her respects.

"You girl, have fun." The old ancestor looked at the little girl with a smile.

He had heard Qingxia say it.

Even if this girl and that child didn't explain anything clearly, they seemed to be living a small life in the villa.

It's a tacit understanding and a natural fit, a match made in heaven!
A large group of people crowded around the old ancestor and walked into the mansion.

At the second gate, Mrs. Lu led Mrs. Lu and little Lu Ming.

Behind them are Aunt Zhou and Lu Song's family, as well as Lu Qianqian, Lu Yunyun, Lu Lingxue, Lu Lingyue, and Lu Lingshuang.

After that, Aunt Xu led the aunts in the West Mansion.

They all knelt down to pay respects to their ancestors.

The old ancestor waved his hand, signaled them to get up, and let everyone disperse.

He walked towards the library.

It's not that he's going to the study building, but his yard is near the study building.

Lu Weiyu's Qingfengyuan is also in that area.

Letting the Begonia Courtyard be cleaned up and given to Lu Zheng back then also meant that all the children of the direct line lived there.

The library is in front of the Meiyuan, Qingfengyuan and Haitangyuan, but behind the ancestor's yard.

Everyone else dispersed, and Lu Tianyao walked slowly in the garden with his ancestor.

On the side of the road outside the study building, old man Yu led countless hidden guards and made a one-knee salute.

Looking at them, the ancestors couldn't help but feel slightly hot eyes.

Ji Yanming stepped forward to help old man Yu up, and raised his hand to signal the other hidden guards to disperse.

So the ancestor went to the library, and Old Man Yu accompanied him and talked for a while.

Knowing that the child often stays here in the library, peeking at the little girl reading and practicing martial arts, the corner of the ancestor's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but want to curse.

It's just that Xiao Yunzhang didn't come over today, so he seems to have a guilty conscience?

Lu Weiyu didn't know many things behind this.

Only when she returned to the mansion did she know that her ancestor would come back to Beijing. Her father had already brought people to tidy up the yard of her ancestor.

After she came back, she went to see it again, and added a few utensils that her ancestors would also use in Zhuangzi, so she was relieved.

The old ancestor came back today, and she confirmed with Steward Zhou about today's family banquet, and then went to find the old ancestor.

The old ancestor was asking Lu Chengan about their homework and martial arts practice. When they saw her coming, they let the brothers Lu Chengan leave.

"Girl, tomorrow is your younger brother's first birthday..."

The old ancestor paused here, and said with a smile, "There is another person's birthday, I'm afraid they will ask you for a birthday gift, are you ready?"

Lu Weiyu nodded hastily, and said with a smile: "He likes to paint, I gave the paintings the last two times, and he wants me to give them back this year."

"That's good." Seeing that she was prepared, the old ancestor couldn't help smiling.

Lu Weiyu didn't know at all that the old ancestor was talking about His Highness, while she was talking about Young Master Lingfeng.

"Girl, the news of the divorce has passed, the Chen family has married a new wife, and you will also face a new marriage, are you ready?"

The old ancestor asked again.

When Lu Weiyu heard this, his face immediately collapsed.

He said pitifully: "Old Ancestor, I will pass Ji next year, can you wait until I pass Ji to mention this matter?"

At least give her another year.

The old ancestors would not let her go north, so her shop and manpower must be laid out first.

She discussed with her eldest cousin last year that they would partner in the medicinal material business on the northern line.

Her ancestors did not allow her to open a pharmacy this year.

The grocery stores and dry goods stores that have been sold on the southern line for a long time, although not making a lot of money, are still open.

Just waiting for her to be qualified to run a medicine business.

But the Northern Line is a business that she and her big cousin partnered with, and His Royal Highness is behind it.

The ancestors can't stop it anymore, can they?
She planned to go to Changshan after Ming'er's birthday to talk about it with Uncle Jiu.

To be able to bring the medicinal material business to the north, even if the Bai family doesn't do the business in person, is it the goal that the Bai family wants to achieve?

After all, the Changshan Bai family has always been the southern medicine sect, and their business has not directly penetrated into the north.

But it has business dealings with many drug dealers in the Northland.

Therefore, before she reaches Ji, she must use various methods to stare down the enemy.

Through the advantages in the business field, he can figure out the terrain of Yinyue Villa clearly.

And its power and industry distribution.

Once there is trouble, they can besieged and suppressed on a large scale without leaving any hidden dangers.

If she gets engaged again now, it won't be the same as when she was a child.

She doesn't want someone to drag her back and affect the speed of her drawing the sword!

"Being engaged and marrying you are two different things, and it doesn't affect what you want to do." The old ancestor said.

"But..." Lu Weiyu still wanted to defend herself a few words.

But the old ancestor waved his hand and said: "The matter of engagement is a foregone conclusion, so don't worry about anything else."

"Other things will be discussed after you are old enough. I am telling you this now because I am afraid that you will be worried about being entangled by others and feel uneasy."

"After all, tomorrow is Ming'er's birthday party, there will be many guests coming, and you are married again, so you don't have to be afraid of other people's intentions."

It turned out to be the case.

Lu Weiyu nodded, but suddenly pursed her lips and said, "Old Ancestor, who did I promise to?"

"My father promised me to let me make my own choice."

Why did you settle on her so quickly?
The old ancestor chuckled and asked, "Didn't your father let you pick him out?"

"Huh?" Lu Weiyu was stunned, dizzy, who did she pick?

"Your Majesty or Young Master Lingfeng, you can choose either one," said the ancestor.

His Majesty?
Master Ling Feng?

Whichever you choose?
Lu Weiyu was frightened.

That is to say, the opportunity given to her to choose is only to choose one of the two here?

But she has been with Young Master Lingfeng for so long, and he never asked him what he meant, nor did he say that he wanted to marry her.

She couldn't hurry up and ask him when he would marry her, could she?

As for Your Highness...

His Majesty is a good man!
She was given lucky money every year, and a birthday gift was prepared for her when she was 12 years old.

She was also allowed to play in the Zhuangzi, and borrowed a hot spring villa for her to live in.

If it is really promised to His Highness...

Smelly Lingfeng can cry by himself!
Lu Weiyu was angry and cursed angrily.

"Just wait, there will be results."

Seeing her resentful expression, thinking of what Song Qingxia said, the ancestor laughed.

Then he drove the little girl away.

He made this intentionally, just to let the little girl figure it out for herself.

Otherwise, I have been foolish and can't understand anything.

Although the child didn't say anything, he wouldn't be passive.

It's just that the identity has been concealed for so long, and at this juncture, I'm afraid he's lifting a rock and hitting himself in the foot.

In Ji Yanming's words, let the children do it themselves!
That night, when the dark guard came to invite Lu Weiyu to the study building, he saw Mr. Lingfeng leaning against the window and shaking his fan.

There was a small box on the long table, similar to the one I saw on New Year's Eve, but slightly smaller.

Lu Weiyu immediately happily ran over to open it.
