Do not engage in underworld operations in the human world!

Chapter 215: Set yourself on fire and reap the consequences!
The door was opened, and Princess Connaught looked at Jiang Lu cautiously and curiously.

As Cu Chulainn's nominal father, Jiang Lu and Dectel attended the dinner together, and of course they had a brief contact.

At the banquet, Jiang Lu had actually left a deep impression on Princess Connaught without knowing it.

She had long heard that Cu Chulainn was a proud warrior in Ulster, so the Princess of Connaught was not at all surprised by the arrogance shown by Cu Chulainn who arrived early.

So when she saw that Cú Chulainn, who had left such a stereotyped impression on her, was respectful in front of Jiang Lu, she naturally became curious about who Jiang Lu was and what was so special about him.

Seeing Jiang Lu coming to see her at this time, Princess Connaught was confused and a little nervous. In her opinion, maybe the other party came to inspect her on behalf of Cu Chulainn's mother, so she was very cautious.

"Good evening, uncle."

Princess Connaught opened the door politely, invited Jiang Lu in, and then asked tentatively:

"So your family is so harmonious. Do you usually call Cu Chulainn your darling?"

Hearing this, Jiang Lu, who had just sat down, trembled: "Don't be disgusting."

"Eh?" Princess Connaught couldn't help but wonder.

Only then did Jiang Lu realize that the other party had probably misunderstood something, thinking that calling her "baby" was an affectionate term from an elder to a younger one.

Thinking of this, a sense of guilt suddenly surged into Jiang Lu's heart.

This is a bit difficult to handle.
Fortunately, Jiang Lu is a person who is good at convincing himself and reconciling with himself.

He then thought about it and realized that although they were higher in seniority than each other, they were actually about the same age. They were essentially the same age.

Since they are the same age, it is not so sinful.

It’s not like the young father-in-law can’t do it either.

"Yeah" Jiang Lu changed his mind and said, "Yes, I usually call him that, don't mind."

"Of course I won't mind." Princess Connaught smiled implicitly, then sat across from Jiang Lu and asked, "So, is there anything important about your uncle's late night visit?"

"It really matters to me."

"what?"

"Ah, no." Even though it was awkward not to say weird things, Jiang Lu still patiently said step by step: "The main thing is to see you. You know, Cu Chulainn is a child with a very weird temperament. Such a person is very It’s hard to find someone who matches his soul mate, so I have to listen to what you think of him.”

The Princess of Connaught, who really came to inspect me, thought to herself.

"What do I think of him? Let me think"

The Princess of Connaught replied politely and appropriately:
"In my opinion, he is a very powerful man. He is brave and invincible on the battlefield. This has won the respect of many people in Connacht, including my mother."

"Strong." Jiang Lu was a little speechless, thinking to himself, what kind of evaluation is this? You are on a blind date, not a young man. Does it matter whether he is strong or not has anything to do with your life?

"Yes, powerful." Princess Connaught nodded: "There is no doubt that he is a rare warrior, a hero enough to leave a strong mark in history."

Jiang Lu couldn't stand it anymore and made it clear: "But this has nothing to do with marriage, right? What I want to know is your evaluation of his character. In other words, do you think you will be happy after getting married? "

"This"

Princess Connaught hesitated to speak. After a long time, she shook her head:

“I don’t know, I don’t know anything about his character because he doesn’t let people get close to him, he’s too proud.

After getting along with him for a few days, I found that he was more interested in Connaught's military and even war horses than he was in me, which made me a little frustrated.

To be honest, I don't know if marrying him will be a happy one, but what I know for sure is that at the moment, I don't have high expectations for this outcome. "

"It's a marriage after all." After hearing the other party's true thoughts, Jiang Lu sighed: "You are all just victims of power."

"Yes." Princess Connaught said with deep understanding: "But unfortunately, neither he nor I have the ability to change all this."

Indeed, an alliance without a blood-based transaction such as marriage as a guarantee is not reliable.

Although it is not reliable even if it is available, at least it will make people feel more at ease.

"In this way, I can almost foresee your future unhappiness." Jiang Lu said with a wry smile.

"But there is nothing we can do about it. I think this is the most cost-effective deal to exchange my life and his life for the prosperity of Connaught." Princess Connaught seemed to have looked away a long time ago: "In front of the kingdom, Personal gains and losses are not important.”

"It's no problem." Jiang Lu nodded in agreement, and then changed the topic: "But to be honest, your life is gloomy, but his life is not necessarily without glory."

Princess Connaught was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is that he will definitely become the king of Ulster in the future. Naturally, he can marry other people. Even if it is not good, he can have several mistresses, but you will only be able to stay alone in your empty house for the rest of your life." Jiang Lu said calmly.

"." Princess Connaught's face changed, and an indescribable sadness and helplessness filled her eyes.

She didn't even have time to think about whether this was what her elders should say, but she seemed to have been overwhelmed by this almost foreseeable future.

"But...what can we do?" Princess Connaught sighed.

"Yeah, what can we do?" Jiang Lu repeated.

Princess Connaught propped her chin up with both hands and said weakly, "I don't think you are here to test me at all. You are here to make me disappointed in this marriage."

Jiang Lu blinked: "I wasn't here to inspect you in the first place."

"Then you are"

"I just came to see you. Because you didn't interact at all during the dinner, his mother was very worried and asked me to come and have a look." Jiang Lu replied.

"My aunt is such a gentle person."

Princess Connaught looked at Jiang Lu with some envy:

"Your marriage to your aunt must be very happy, right?"

"It's not bad." Jiang Lu thought for a while: "Anyway, it will definitely be a hundred times more comfortable than the life you will live in the future."

"Is that so?" Princess Connaught's eyes became a little dim.

Perhaps out of reluctance, or perhaps still feeling lucky about her marriage, she tried to make a last ditch effort to figure out why Jiang Lu and Dectel's marriage was so happy.

She was sure that there must be some secret for the two of them to be so harmonious even though they had such a big age gap and had a bigger barrier than she and Cu Chulainn.

And this secret naturally lies with Jiang Lu, who even the proud Cu Chulainn respects.

With this in mind, Princess Connaught asked: "Speaking of which, I would like to know what kind of person you are?"

"Eh? Why did you suddenly ask me?" Jiang Lu was a little surprised.

I haven't even started operating yet, so why are you throwing yourself into the trap?

How can I show that my marksmanship is accurate?
Princess Connaught naturally didn't know what he was thinking and replied: "I just want to know more about you."

"It's not fun to talk about." Jiang Lu said this, but he became excited in his heart.

Classic lines are here!

"Is there any taboo about this?" Princess Connaught was puzzled and nervously explained: "I heard that my aunt used to be a very introverted person, just like me now, but when I look at it today, I feel that she is very introverted. Cheerful look, so I want to know how you made her change and make the marriage work so well."

"Oh, this." Jiang Lu smiled mysteriously: "Because she has been developed by me."

"Development?"

Princess Connaught tilted her head in confusion: "Does it mean tapping potential?"

Jiang Lu thought about it and felt that it was okay to say so, so he nodded and said: "It's almost the same. She has indeed tapped into a lot of potential."

"Is this the secret to running a marriage?"

murmured the Princess of Connaught.

Jiang Lu smiled and said nothing.

Seeing that Jiang Lu didn't seem to want to say anything further, and didn't seem to want to tell her how to operate, Princess Connaught also became a little anxious, so she simply asked directly:
"Uncle, can you teach me?"

"How to teach this?" Jiang Lu scratched his head: "This depends on talent."

Hearing this, Princess Connaught became serious. As a child who received the strictest and most elite education in Connaught, she considers herself to be second in talent, while Connaught does not have the first talent. She is very confident that she can do anything that humans can do.

So she said firmly: "I think I have talent! I can definitely do it."

"But it's not up to you to decide whether you have talent or not. It's me who has mastered this ability." Jiang Lu said proudly.

Princess Connaught was very unconvinced and said stubbornly: "Then let me show it to you and let you admit that I have talent!"

"Then how do you want to show it?" Jiang Lu asked with a smile.

"Please develop me! Develop me just like you developed my aunt!" Princess Connaught stood up and bowed: "Please!"

Jiang Lu took a deep breath and stood up. He put his hands behind his back, walked to the window, and said slowly and thoughtfully:

"My practice is very hard."

Princess Connaught understood that Jiang Lu had promised to teach her, and she suddenly became excited, waving her fists and cheering: "I can do it! I can definitely do it!"

ten minutes later.

"I can't. I really can't."

Princess Connaught covered her face and kept retreating.

Jiang Lu reprimanded seriously: "Is this your determination? Is this all your determination? I'm so disappointed!"

"But...but" Princess Connaught's tone was pitiful and she couldn't understand her words.

"Listen, if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture a man's stomach! If you want to be happy in the future, this is something you must experience and master!"

"But now it's my stomach that's being eaten by you."

"Shh! Stop talking and feel every beat with your heart!"

Feeling Jiang Lu's strict teachings, Princess Connaught certainly knew that Jiang Lu was doing this for her own good, not to mention that it was her request. Whether it was for face or for her own future, she knew she had to persevere.

So she gritted her teeth: "Okay! Please spare no effort and teach me without reservation!"

"Don't worry." Jiang Lu said happily: "Since I promised you, I won't hide anything."

"it is good!"

"Pay attention, watch out for my next move!"

"What will happen?"

"It will be very handsome!"

early morning.

Jiang Lu once again stood in front of the window with his hands behind his hands, bathing in the morning light.

His back stretched very long on the ground, just covering the panting Princess of Connaught.

Facing the sun, Princess Connaught could only see Jiang Lu's dark silhouette.

"Uncle." She said tiredly: "Am I qualified?"

"Um"

"Great"

Princess Connaught showed a satisfied smile, finally let go of her obsession, and seemed to be falling asleep.

But just when she closed her eyes, Jiang Lu suddenly said:
"But unfortunately, son, I don't think your marriage will be happy in the future."

Hearing this, the originally peaceful Princess Connaught suddenly opened her eyes wide and sat up from the bed: "Why? Isn't this still okay?"

"No, you can't."

Jiang Lu sighed, came to the bedside and sat down with a melancholy expression, patted her back comfortingly, and said a little apologetically:
"Blame me, blame me for just thinking about it now."

"What? Are you saying that it's not good for us to do this?" Princess Connaught was a little panicked for no reason, and subconsciously defended Jiang Lu: "No, no, I'm very happy, you are really powerful, and I have done this. I won’t tell anyone, it won’t affect you.”

"No, that's not what I meant."

Jiang Lu pretended to be distressed and explained:

“I mean, although you learn a lot, it also means that your starting point is too high now.

It’s not that I’m bragging, but there will never be another person like me in the world. In other words, it will be difficult for you to surpass what you earn today. "

After a pause, Jiang Lu shook his head: "No, it should be said that it is impossible."

"How could. How could this happen?"

Princess Connaught understood what Jiang Lu meant. She lowered her head unbearably and pulled her hair with a look of dejection.

I could have endured the darkness if I had never seen the light.

This sentence perfectly explains the Princess of Connaught's current situation.

Human beings have their own limits, gods have their own limits, and Jiang Lv has his own limits.

And Jiang Lu's limit is equivalent to the limit of the universe!

If there is a creator in the universe, then the creator is undoubtedly so generous that he gave his crime tools to Jiang Lu.

Under such conditions, even if Jiang Lu only exerted 30% of his strength, it was far beyond the limit that humans could reach. No matter how strong Cu Chulainn was, he would not be able to break through such a realm.

"It's a shame but you'll probably never be satisfied."

Jiang Lu said sadly.

"How could it be. How could it become like this?"

Princess Connaught was still muttering mechanically.

"So in the future you will unconsciously use me as a benchmark for comparison. In this way, you will become more and more unhappy."

Jiang Lutu’s poor dagger:

"In my opinion, you should think about it again. There are other ways to guarantee an alliance. It doesn't necessarily have to be marriage. Maybe you should spend time looking for someone who fits your soul. As long as there is true love, then even if Just being unsatisfactory is not something that cannot be tolerated.”

But at this moment, Princess Connaught suddenly raised her head: "No! There must be a marriage!"

"You kid, why don't you listen to my advice?" Jiang Lu couldn't help but have a headache.

Even if you don't change your mind, then your efforts will be in vain?
Unexpectedly, Princess Connaught immediately said: "As long as we don't marry Cu Chulainn, wouldn't it be fine?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"Aren't you also one of the representatives of Ulster?" Princess Connaught said seriously: "In that case, my marriage to you will be the same."

"?" Jiang Lv was numb: "Isn't that how it was calculated?"

"Even if it's not calculated this way, it must be calculated this way."

Princess Connaught inherited the strength of Queen Maeve. She may be gentle and gentle at unimportant moments, but at important moments, she shows an aura that will not give up until the goal is achieved:
"I will tell my mother that she will find a way and you don't need to worry about it."

Hearing this, Jiang Lu, who realized that he had lost his temper, panicked: "Wait a minute. Don't be impulsive."

"I'm not impulsive."

Princess Connaught said unquestionably while getting dressed:
"It's just that I am extremely sure now that I can no longer leave you!"

After a pause, she added:

"And there it is."
