Lu Chengfeng stared quietly at Xie Jiuxiao under the lamp, and said, "Why do you have to endure it?"

Xie Jiuxiao looked at her puzzled.

Lu Chengfeng remained silent, and Xie Jiuxiao sat up a little. He was injured on his chest and shoulders, but the bruises were not serious, or maybe he had seen Lu Chengfeng suffer more serious injuries than this many times before. The same thing, thought for a while, and said: "I just don't think it's necessary, the mouth grows on other people, and I just don't hear what they say about him."

Lu Chengfeng said: "You don't care what they say at all?"

Xie Jiuxiao's tone was a little funny: "Why should I care? I know the truth myself."

If Xie Yunqian was here, I would really feel deeply that Xie Jiuxiao is not the same today as before.

Lu Chengfeng smiled, turned sideways to get some tea, and the sternness in his eyes flashed past.

Xie Jiuxiao relaxed and said, "That Wei Shan doesn't look easy."

Lu Chengfeng poured a cup of tea and drank it slowly. Hearing this and thinking about it, Xie Jiuxiao said, "From what I've seen so far, Wei Shan is brave, resourceful, capable of bending and stretching, and he is not an ordinary person."

Lu Chengfeng asked: "Have you met before?"

Xie Jiuxiao shook his head: "No, it's the first time seeing you tonight."

"Then how do you know he is brave and resourceful?"

Xie Jiuxiao said: "He picked Wei Yanming out in an instant, and said that he was careless in making friends. In such a situation, if you don't give in, you will appear to be bullying, and with such remarks, the emperor will hold you accountable. It seems that Wei Yanming will be punished for a few words at most."

What he said was very reasonable, Lu Chengfeng said: "The eldest son of the Wei family is naturally not an ordinary person. Although his name is not as good as Tan Chengyi, but he has a good family background, and it is difficult for others to surpass him at birth. end point."

Xie Jiuxiao thought for a while and said, "Why don't we go back to Subei, Yanjing is not good either."

Lu Chengfeng put down his teacup and said, "No hurry, the situation in Subei has calmed down, and it won't be too late to come back when the white lotus blooms in the garden."

Xie Jiuxiao glanced at her silently: "Don't cause trouble."

Lu Chengfeng laughed: "Am I causing trouble?"

She was about to get up while she was talking, Xie Jiuxiao grabbed her with his hands, Lu Chengfeng turned around, Xie Jiuxiao just looked at her and didn't speak.

Lu Chengfeng hated his appearance to death, but also liked his appearance, a trace of sullenness disappeared, and he said, "It's just turning off the lights, what do you think I'm going to do?"

Xie Jiuxiao said, "I thought you were angry." Then he let go of him.

Lu Chengfeng went over to blow out the lamp and came back, lay down outside, and said, "Go to sleep."

When Lu Chengfeng woke up the next day, Xie Jiuxiao chatted with Cheng Yao about some boring topics after breakfast. Based on what happened last night, neither of them had any interest in going out, so they both waited for Lu Chengfeng to come back until noon There was still no movement for a long time, Xie Jiuxiao called someone to ask: "Where did Chengfeng go?"

Jinwei lowered his head and replied: "The subordinates don't know, the master didn't say anything, but the master took Dong Huwei away."

Xie Jiuxiao didn't pay much attention to it, until it was getting dark, he couldn't wait any longer, Xie Jiuxiao had to go to Xie's mansion first to find out what happened.

Zhou Lihua looked shocked: "You don't know?"

Xie Jiuxiao and Cheng Yao looked at each other, Xie Jiuxiao said: "Know what?"

Zhou Lihua said: "I thought you knew. Your eldest brother got the news early in the morning. Miss Lu entered the palace early this morning, saying that she wanted justice for what happened last night."

Speaking of this week, Lihua wondered, "What happened last night?"

Jin Yiwei blocked the news severely, and Xie Yunqian reassured Zhou Lihua that it was just a quarrel between the children of the aristocratic family, and did not deliberately send someone to inquire about it. It was really Xie Jiuxiao who was arguing with others. You are going to get married in a few days, you still need to be more calm in the future."

Cheng Yao couldn't sit still anymore, no wonder she didn't come back for a day, asking for justice?How can she seek justice?
Xie Jiuxiao didn't say a word, obviously he had something on his mind with Cheng Yao.

Zhou Lihua was a little worried: "I'm pretty sure about you now, but let him go—hey"

Zhou Lihua was very worried, Xie Jiuxiao was a little absent-minded, and followed her words: "What's wrong with the second brother?"

"A Fang is 28 this year! There are two or three boys at this age. A few days ago, his mother met Li's parents and daughters for him. Miss Li is well educated and well-versed in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but A Fang brushed her face and said nothing. , He hasn’t even returned home these few days, he won’t be able to stay in Yanjing for a few days, so avoiding him like this is not an option.”

Zhou Lihua walked out of the hall while talking, and said: "Come here, go and find out about the second master."

The two people in the hall were relatively silent, facing a table of food, they suddenly lost interest, Cheng Yao said: "What should I do? Go back and wait?"

That's all for now.

The night was getting darker. Xie Jiuxiao was sitting under the sycamore tree in the garden. The branches of the sycamore tree were strong. Cheng Yao was leaning on the tree, holding a pot of wine in his hand and had been drinking for a long time. Finally, he sat up and looked at Xie Jiuxiao, saying: " What justice do you think Chengfeng wants and hasn't come back yet?"

Xie Jiuxiao didn't speak, and Cheng Yao didn't care, she took a sip of her wine, and said: "It's nothing more than a fascination—"

Cheng Yao turned down the tree and said, "There's been no news for a whole day. It seems that nothing bad happened. I'll go out and have a look."

The night wind came, blowing his clothes and tumbling, Xie Jiuxiao looked up at the sycamore tree, dancing with vitality among the luxuriant branches and leaves.

When it was almost two o'clock, there was finally a movement at the door. Dong Jiu followed Lu Chengfeng in. When he saw the person at the stone table, Lu Chengfeng waved his hand. Dong Jiu led the people back out wisely. Lu Chengfeng came over: " Why are you sitting here?"

Xie Jiuxiao stood up, seeing that she was safe and sound, he felt relieved and said, "Waiting for you."

Lu Chengfeng pulled him to go into the house, when he touched his hands, he felt cold, and he couldn't help being surprised, Xie Jiuxiao's body temperature was already on the high side, how long did it take for Ye Feng's hands to become so cold?
Lu Chengfeng grabbed it and said, "How long have you been waiting? Your hands are so cold."

Xie Jiuxiao kept his eyes on her, and after a pause, he bent down to hug her. Lu Chengfeng obediently was picked up and asked, "What happened?"

Xie Jiuxiao carried him into the house and said, "What did you do today?"

Lu Chengfeng blinked and said, "I have entered Beijing, so naturally I want to enter the palace to meet the emperor."

"What about other than that?"

Lu Chengfeng laughed and said, "You know?"

Xie Jiuxiao said: "Didn't we agree last night?"

Lu Chengfeng shrugged: "I didn't agree."

Xie Jiuxiao had nothing to do with her, and said, "Then what happened?"

"Why don't you listen to the news yourself tomorrow?"

Xie Jiuxiao said, "No."

Lu Chengfeng paused, and said: "Qiu Qionglin was punished in public for [-] battles for not being strict with his son, Tao Yu and Wang Zixuan were exiled to Qidong, never to enter Beijing again."

Xie Jiuxiao looked at her: "This time I really offended people."

Lu Chengfeng kicked off his shoes and was in a good mood: "So what? If I don't do this today, a second or third person will open their mouths in the future. If they still regard me as Lu Chengfeng from two years ago, that's a big deal. It's the price."

Xie Jiuxiao pursed her lips, knowing very well in her heart that if it was only about her, she would definitely not care, so she couldn't help but sigh softly.

Hearing this sigh, Lu Chengfeng paused when he undressed, recalling Tan Chengyi's words, he was lost in thought for a while, Xie Jiuxiao saw her lost in thought, and said, "What are you thinking about?"

Lu Chengfeng didn't hide it, and said, "I'm thinking about talking about Cheng Yi."

Xie Jiuxiao said, "What did you say?"

Lu Chengfeng looked at him, smiled, then frowned and thought, "He said, let me see Wei's house."

"Looking at the Wei family?"

"Because of the daughter's entry into the palace, the Wei family's speech and behavior in Yanjing have changed drastically from the usual. The Wei family is now in full power, and Wei Shan is also aware of this. He would rather bow his head to me in full view. Wei Shan's father is General Suidong has a strong family background, and now there is a concubine Wei, the tree attracts the wind."

Xie Jiuxiao heard the last sentence, and repeated in a low voice: "The big tree attracts the wind—"

Lu Chengfeng took off the feather crown on his head smoothly, Xie Jiuxiao didn't move, but said: "He is reminding you."

Lu Chengfeng is now above Subei, but what will happen in a few years?
Xie Jiuxiao thought for a while, and said: "Now it seems that only being stronger can make the emperor think carefully."

Lu Chengfeng smirked, and was carried to bed by him, saying: "The heads of the Xie family probably thought the same way back then, and the current Wei family probably thinks the same as you."

Lu Chengfeng said: "The emperor is very suspicious. Right now, the emperor values ​​me and uses me, but it is because Subei cannot do without me now. The new policy has only just begun. Three years, five years or ten years. At that time, the world will be settled, and King Dingbei will This king with a different surname, this Lu Chengfeng who rose up by sweeping up the chaos in the past, is afraid that he will start to be feared by the emperor, once the seeds of fear are planted, it will be like the Xie family in the past, and the Wei family now."

The three words Dingbei Wang are infinitely beautiful today, but tomorrow they will become a life-threatening knife!

Lu Chengfeng rolled on the bed, and said: "Never mind him, in three to five years, the soldiers will come to cover the water and soil, right now—come here."

Xie Jiuxiao leaned over, and the two lay down together. Lu Chengfeng said, "I discussed it with your elder brother yesterday. How about we get married in two days?"

Xie Jiuxiao said: "I listen to you."

"No banquet?"

"You decide."

Lu Chengfeng giggled, his eyes revealed a hint of malice, and said, "You all listen to me?"

This tone——Xie Jiuxiao hesitated, and said after a long while: "It's all up to you."
