This is not the fault of Coconut, nor is it the fault of Ah Luo.

Although the two girls had been following Qiao Jingjing for a short time, they had no idea what was going on in Lujiang City back then.

But I also heard about it in the following days. I heard that when they were in Lujiang City, Mr. Lu Xunlu and Mrs. Da Qiao in his boudoir had discussed marriage, but nothing happened.

Now, don't be so restrained.

Mrs. Da Qiao's husband is dead.

Mrs. Da Qiao is young and beautiful, in the prime of her youth.

If Mr. Lu Xunlu still has that intention.

Why not accomplish his good deeds?

This is what Ye Rong and A Luo have in mind.

What about Sun Shangxiang?She is not so petty, and she never guards against her sister-in-law.

In the past, when her mother, Mrs. Wu, was feeling troubled, Sun Shangxiang had once comforted her mother.

Sun Shangxiang didn't think that a woman would have to spend the remaining decades of her life for her dead husband at such a young age.

Why be so pedantic and shabby?
They are a big family and don't engage in such nonsense.

If it is so hypocritical, then why did the second brother marry Xu Jiao again?

Is Xu Jiao still the widow of the Lu family?

right!
So even if someone like Lu Xun, a young, cultured, charming, knowledgeable young man, hangs around her sister-in-law Qiao Jingjing every day, Sun Shangxiang would think it's nothing.

Sun Shangxiang and Liu Ji were talking and laughing.

Wandering leisurely on the crowded streets of Yuhang.

Watch a vaudeville show.

Look at the traders and their lackeys.

If Sun Shangxiang liked it, the thief would be more enthusiastic and even reward the busker with a handful of copper coins.

Along the way, you'll encounter new gadgets from street shops, including grasshoppers made of straw, kites made of bamboo and paper, lanterns, oil-paper umbrellas, etc.

Sun Shangxiang bought and bought all the way.

She bought at least ten lanterns.

I bought several baskets of grasshoppers, grasshoppers, butterflies, and jade trinkets by the grass.

Neither A Luo nor Coconut could bear it.

Qiao Jingjing knew that this was something Sun Shangxiang wanted to buy for his sister-in-law and niece at home.

Sun Shangxiang is kind-hearted and outspoken.

Sun Shangxiang came to a stall selling jewelry again and chose many hairpins.

She specifically picked this chic and sophisticated one.

She turned back and inserted a wooden hairpin into her sister-in-law Qiao Jingjing's bun, and chose another one for herself.

In Sun Shangxiang's opinion, these are just happy gadgets. He bought them and looked at them all the time, laughing.

Lu Xun saw how close Sun Shangxiang and Qiao Jingjing were.

And it’s another hairpin.

He wanted to buy it for Qiao Jingjing, but the little princess made such an unintentional joke and lost the atmosphere.

In fact, Lu Xun had been carrying the pair of jade bracelets in his arms.

It is said to be a family heirloom left over from the time of the First Emperor. He traveled hundreds of miles from Huating County, Wu County to Lujiang City in order to give it to Qiao Jingjing as a betrothal gift.

As a result, Qiao Jingjing was sent to Qu'a by her two younger brothers.

In desperation, the two people missed each other.

On Lu Xun's body, the pair of emerald jade bracelets were already worn all the way.

He could never find the right opportunity to give it to Qiao Jingjing.

A few days ago, he had been thinking about her face.

He thought that she must be the kind of person who was strong in front of others and cried alone in pain.

Sun Ce was dead, and it was such a serious matter, but she didn't shed a few tears in front of others.

Instead, like Zhang Zhao and Zhou Yu, she was the first to stand up and take charge, presiding over the Sun family's family affairs and presiding over major affairs in the six counties of Jiangdong.

Lu Xun knew that she must be feeling very bitter.

Fortunately, these disturbances in Jiangdong, such as Sun Hao and Sun Fu, etc., all subsided one by one.

And he also had the opportunity to accompany her on a tour to the southeast, to see the mountains and rivers with her, and to divert her attention with something she liked.

These days, he finally saw the smile on her face, the smile that came naturally from the heart.

He is happy for her.

This day is the Shangsi Festival.

It is a day when people go together to bathe at the waterside, offer sacrifices and feasts, and enjoy spring outings in the countryside.

People in the city spent the morning shopping and bought paper. Some went home to make lanterns, and some wanted to relax and bought many lanterns on the street. They all said they would go to the waterside to put lanterns at night.

It was getting late, so Sun Shangxiang bought a lot of lanterns and wanted to put them by the water.

Qiao Jingjing also asked Yezheng and Aluo to take some.

Everyone goes to the waterside to put up lanterns to pray for blessings and eliminate disasters, and of course to miss their loved ones.

Qiao Jingjing put on dozens of lights in one breath.

These lanterns flow downstream with the flowing water and finally merge into the sea.

Lu Xun watched from the side.

He saw from a distance that the notes on the lanterns, although they were not clear, were probably about Sun Ce.

Qiao Jingjing expressed her longing for Sun Ce in this way.

Lu Xun stood there, not knowing what to say.

Lu Xun fell in love with her and was happy for her happiness and sad for her sadness.

In fact, Qiao Jingjing was more or less forced to enter the country, or she was deceiving herself.

a dead person.

There is no soul anymore. No matter how much the living people miss it, it is just the thoughts of the living people. What do the dead people know?

Setting off lanterns to commemorate the deceased is nothing more than self-comfort and self-salvation for those living in the world.

Qiao Jingjing stood by the water, watching so many lanterns flowing into the distance with the flowing water.

This is like everyone's destiny.

Once started, you cannot stop or quit midway.

Sun Ce's fate was like this in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty. How could it not be the same when she came to this era?

Qiao Jingjing looked at the lantern in trance.

Sun Shangxiang and Liu Ji had already run ahead after chasing those lanterns.

Lu Xun gently untied his cloak and gently put it on Qiao Jingjing's shoulders when the wind started.

Qiao Jingjing thought it was the shawl given to her by Coconut.

"I'm not cold."

I don't see Coconut taking back this shawl.

Qiao Jingjing turned around and saw that Lu Xun was standing behind her, within three feet.

Qiao Jingjing gently took off Lu Xun's cloak, lowered her head, and returned Lu Xun's shawl to him.

Qiao Jingjing had already lifted up her skirt and walked to the high arch bridge.

on high.

You can see the people coming and going by the water, as well as the lanterns, and it has the atmosphere of the Shangsi Festival.

Lu Xun just followed Qiao Jingjing closely and didn't know what to say.

He believed she understood what he was thinking.

He wasn't trying to take advantage of someone's situation or make her accept him immediately.

He is not the villain in this case.

He just wanted to care about her.

Qiao Jingjing took one step, and Lu Xun followed.

On the contrary, Yezheng and Aluo followed far away.

Qiao Jingjing didn't want to talk to Lu Xun about this.

But Lu Xun felt particularly emotional in this festive atmosphere, with the candlelight and the crowds of people. "Axiang ran away somewhere! What a naughty child. I was also naughty when I was her age."

Qiao Jingjing talked about her time in Lujiang City, and wanted Lu Xunhuo to understand that he was young at that time and didn't need to care.

Yes.

She never thought about marrying Lu Xun, or a child of the Lu family, from the beginning.

If she had married Lu Xun or married someone else, would she have never crossed paths with Sun Ce again?
Qiao Jingjing never thought about it.

I don't want to think about that either.

"Captain Lu, I know what you mean. I thank you, but that's all."

Qiao Jingjing said this, but Lu Xun still didn't speak.

Lu Xun just stood beside Qiao Jingjing.

In the eyes of people from a distance, the image of their pair is that the woman has looks and the man has grace.

Much like a pair of lovers who come to the waterside to express their feelings.

"I was not sensible when I was a child, and I only knew how to mess around all day long. In Lujiang City, I often caused trouble for my father. As for me, I still feel that I am very capable!
Our family is not rich, and we sisters are not ladies.In fact, from the beginning, it was my father's wishful thinking, and it was my father who climbed up the family of Prefect Lu. "

Qiao Jingjing still had to make things clear from the beginning.

Let a pedantic scholar like Lu Xun step out of the agreement he made back then.

"The agreement back then was just a verbal agreement. It was just a lifelong engagement that the previous generation just casually said. It can't be taken seriously!"

Lu Xun admitted the truth.

Since it never came true, he always wanted to make it happen.

Qiao Jingjing understands this.

Lu Xun didn't want to say anything at first, but when Qiao Jingjing opened his mouth, he had no choice but to keep talking. No matter what, at least he couldn't let Qiao Jingjing misunderstand him.

There were so many people tonight that Zhuge Jin, Bu Zhi and others were crowded out.

Zhuge Jin failed to make trouble.

Lu Xun plucked up the courage and called Qiao Jingjing's maiden name.

"Jingjing, I don't think you mean high-flying, nor do you mean a casual marriage between the previous generation. My liking for you has nothing to do with the agreement between my grandfather and your father. I I just want to protect you for the rest of my life!
Sun Ce only guarded half of you and then left. I want to guard you for the rest of your life! "

When Lu Xun spoke, he wanted to take out the pair of jade bracelets from his arms and put them on Qiao Jingjing himself.

But Qiao Jingjing has already taken two steps back.

Qiao Jingjing's own life is not for Sun Ce to protect her, nor is it for someone else to protect her after Sun Ce dies.

She didn't think so.

"That's not what I meant! I'm not forcing you, Jingjing, you don't have to do anything. It doesn't matter if you want to stay in the Sun family and be Mrs. Da Qiao, whom everyone respects. I told you to let me protect you. You I will give you the safe Jiangdong you want," Lu Xun said.

Qiao Jingjing wanted to say a few more words to reject Lu Xun or persuade him.

At that time, fireworks were lit in the sky.

Ping Pong Pong.

The voices rose and fell one after another, and people also shouted and applauded.

It directly covered up all the small sounds in the night.

The crowd became denser.

Lu Xun deserves to take a step forward.

He used his body to protect Qiao Jingjing to prevent others from crowding her.

There were more and more people, and the conversation between Qiao Jingjing and Lu Xun was forced to interrupt.

No one believes anyone, and no one can be convinced.

Ye Rong and A Luo both followed, and Lu Xun hugged Qiao Jingjing and walked back.

In the crowd, two disguised assassins squeezed through.

These two assassins were originally Sun Jing's retainers.

Sun Jing asked to be demoted to a commoner, and the two of them had nowhere to go, so they turned to assassins, specializing in killing and setting fires for buyers.

Sun Jing contacted these two people and asked them to do business without paying money. Both of them were willing to do it.

In Yuhang City, they followed Qiao Jingjing.

Never found an opportunity.

At this time, there were finally more people, and they followed the direction of the crowd and crowded towards Qiao Jingjing.

The assassin looked at the gap, pulled out his dagger, and stabbed Qiao Jingjing.

Who would have thought that the diagonal stab only hit Lu Xun's waist.

Just as it hit the pair of jade bracelets, there was a clang and scratched Lu Xun's flesh.

Lu Xun knew that he had encountered an assassin and did not want to make it public, causing panic among the crowd.

Without leaving any trace, Lu Xun snatched the assassin's dagger with his backhand.

Ye Rong and A Luo also joined forces and subdued the two men silently.

Qiao Jingjing didn't know the extent of Lu Xun's injury. She only thought that Lu Xun was seriously injured. She quickly took off the cloak from her shoulders and tied it around Lu Xun's waist.

Finally retreated to a safe place.

When Zhuge Jing and Bu Zhi came back, they saw Qiao Jingjing nervously surrounding Lu Xun.

Zhuge Jing was the most vigilant and quickly came over:

"What happened? What happened to Mrs. Da Qiao? What happened to Lieutenant Lu? Oh, is there an assassin? Oh, Lieutenant Lu, your life is really big! Oh, just a little injury, just a scratch on the skin ? That’s worth making such a fuss about, seeing as how you scared Mrs. Da Qiao!

Let me tell you, it’s nothing else. Don’t think too much about it. It’s Mrs. Da Qiao who is kind-hearted and cares about her subordinates. Even if a horse is injured, Mrs. Da Qiao will give the horse’s butt the silk and silk she wears. To bandage wounds. "

Zhuge Jin was making such noise just to let people know that he was really trying his best to prevent Lu Xun from getting close to Mrs. Da Qiao.

It was also Zhuge Jin who made the noise.

Only then did Qiao Jingjing truly know the extent of Lu Xun's injury.

That worry is gone.

After Sun Shangxiang came back, he also sighed:

"It turns out that carrying a pair of jade bracelets in your arms has this purpose. It can be used to defend yourself at critical moments!"

Liu Ji stood behind Sun Shangxiang.

He glanced at Lu Xun silently again.

Lieutenant Lu was not seriously injured, but he also had minor skin and flesh injuries. This man was a person who ate whole grains, and he was not an iron-clad man. A cut would still be painful.

Captain Lu's face turned a little pale at this time.

He originally didn't want to say anything because he was afraid that Mrs. Da Qiao would worry about him.

Ugh.

The most passionate people in this world are always men.

this woman...

Liu Ji looked at Sun Shangxiang and then at his sworn sister, Mrs. Qiao.

This woman, even though she is so smart and lovely, yet so heartless and heartless, is always charming and missed.

Why is this?

That night, I returned to the inn.

Liu Ji accompanied the injured Lu Xun and kept vigil for him.

Lu Xun had a slight injury on his waist. Although the pain was bearable, he couldn't sleep at night.

Liu Ji was also tossing and turning.

Lu Xun understood that this was the boy's inner thoughts.

A person who has been around and can be called an elder brother wants to give some advice to this younger brother.

"Don't wait for some things, don't hesitate and compare. If you like it, you like it. If you like it, go for it!"

At night, Lu Xun's cold and clear voice reached Liu Ji's ears.

Liu Ji was confused when he heard it at first, but suddenly he understood it like a mirror.

In the end, I pretended not to hear.

Liu basically thought that Lu Xun would finish speaking.

Na Zeng thought that Lu Xun simply stopped sleeping. He sat up, supporting the small pain in his waist, lit a lamp and put on his shawl.

On the tables nearby, Qiao Jingjing left him a scarf and satin to stop the bleeding, and it was still stained with blood.

"You are still young, so of course you don't understand. Once you miss some people, you may not be able to get them back in your lifetime!"
