Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 248: Wedding Trouble (3)
The crowd's eyes widened in shock from the woman's words, and they couldn't believe it.

"Miss Lu is about to become Prince Yi's concubine, and she is so intimate with a strange man in private. This is really..."

"What's so strange about this? I heard that Ms. Lu already has a sweetheart, but the man's family is poor, and the Lu family despises it. It also happens that Prince Yi's son values ​​it very much. If we balance the two, Master Lu is naturally willing to climb up to the emperor's relatives." .”

"Really? Who did you listen to?"

"My aunt's eldest son's brother-in-law's cousin is doing rough work in Lu's house, that's what she told me."

"Oh, that's how it is." The people around all suddenly realized that they looked at Li Yuan'an with more sympathy, while those who looked at Lu's house showed more contempt and anger.

"Master Lu is upright and honest, but he is also a person who seeks power and wealth." Someone said with contempt and regret.

"Cut!" Someone immediately sneered, "How many officials are as clean as water?"

"That is, one is a poor scholar, and the other is a relative of the emperor. A fool knows how to choose."

"Poor Ms. Lu is beautiful and talented, but she was forced into the sedan chair. She must be full of tears by now."

"Who says it's not." Someone sighed: "These days, being an official has this kind of benefits, and you can do whatever you want, and we ordinary people can only dare to be angry and dare not speak out."

"Don't say that." Li Yuan'an, who had been silent all this time, spoke at this moment, "Master Lu is upright and upright, definitely not that despicable villain."

"Mr. Li, it's rare that you can be so tolerant to her family when you are so infatuated." A kind old man walked over, his face full of love and sympathy.

"No." Li Yuanan lowered his head, his eyes dimmed, and a wry smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.

"The relationship between me and Zi...Miss Lu is not what you think, you have misunderstood."

Oh?The discussion in the audience stopped abruptly with Li Yuanan's words, and they all looked at him with puzzled eyes.Ling Xihan crossed his arms and looked at Li Yuanan, who wrote and directed himself, with great interest.She was very curious, what good show this Li Yuanan would perform next.

Lu Antong, who was sitting in the sedan chair, soon found out about the movement here, and she hurriedly asked Miao Zhu to come over to inquire about the situation.When Miao Zhu heard that Li Yuan'an called Lu Antong like this, she was already furious, and seeing the surrounding people discussing without knowing the truth, she was already so angry that her face turned green.His lips were trembling, and he was too angry to speak.

Ling Xihan made a show of embarrassment to her, signaling her to stay calm.

Li Yuanan said gently and humbly: "I'm originally from Hangzhou. Last year, I rushed to Beijing to participate in the scientific examination. But I was robbed by bandits on the way, and I was seriously injured. Fortunately, Miss Lu passed by and rescued me, so I was able to save my life. He pondered for a while, and then said: "I am grateful for Ms. Lu's life-saving grace. I can't repay you. I heard that Ms. Lu got married today, so I came here to congratulate you." Although he said blessings, his eyes were full of sadness.He took out a brocade handkerchief from his bosom, the brocade handkerchief was as white as snow, embroidered with a large area of ​​blooming daisies, and there were two small characters on the side, it was 'Zi Jun'.

Li Yuanan looked at the Juanpa in his hand reluctantly, "This... This is what Miss Lu left behind in a hurry last time, and it has been stored below. Today... it should be returned to the original owner."

Before he finished speaking, Miao Zhu rushed forward and took back the brocade handkerchief at a speed Ling Xihan could not stop, and her heart sank.Miao Zhu glared coldly, "You are so ignorant of etiquette, a scholar. When did my young lady save you? And this brocade handkerchief, why is it in your hands? You look so gentle Yes, but I didn't expect that he was a prodigal son who would do things that would ruin people's reputation." She raised her eyebrows and gave Li Yuan'an a hard look before explaining to the people around: "Don't believe His nonsense, my young lady is well-educated, beautiful and elegant, she seldom goes out since she was a child. Even when she goes out, she is accompanied by maidservants. The maidservants can testify that my young lady has never seen Li Yuanan like this, let alone left any silk handkerchiefs for him to pick up. "

Miaozhu's voice was crisp and full of energy, which made people believe it.Thinking of Lu Antong's reputation of "Excellent Art", he also slowly turned to Miaozhu, and looked at Li Yuanan with disdain.

"So that's the case. Thanks to me, I thought he was an infatuated person, but it turned out that he wanted to climb the dragon and become the phoenix."

"Hey! Young man, I can understand your earnestness, old lady. Miss Lu is beautiful and intelligent, and it is reasonable for you to admire her in your heart. But it is wrong to destroy the reputation of another's daughter for your own selfish desire." Just now The kind-faced old man turned around and persuaded earnestly: "Lord Lu is just for the people, this is something that is obvious to all, how can you slander and incite people's hearts at will?"

"Cut! Don't take a piss and see what you look like. It's foolish to think that you can climb into a wealthy family with a little bit of knowledge." A man said disdainfully.

"That's right, he looks like a man, but I didn't expect him to be a greedy villain."

The onlookers pointed and pointed, and the words they said became more and more ugly.As for Li Yuanan, he never refuted a word from the beginning to the end.It's just that those eyes looked straight at the sedan chair at the back, and the sadness, sorrow, and blazing affection almost turned into torches to burn down the sedan chair curtain, leading Lu Antong to follow him.

Ling Xihan couldn't help squinting his eyes, the expression in his eyes was unclear.

At this time, someone suddenly shouted.

"It's really shameless. In order to climb up to the Lu family, you dared to sneak into Miss Lu's boudoir and stole her brocade handkerchief."

Ling Xihan's eyes were suddenly as cold as a knife, and the crowd became quiet because of his words.The next moment, everyone's eyes were wide open, and they looked at Li Yuanan meaningfully, and then at the sedan chair, the expressions in their eyes changed a lot.

Steal into the boudoir?Can a scholar who has no strength to restrain himself sneak into Miss Lu's boudoir by evading the guards of the Lu family's concierge?And can he steal his silk handkerchief quietly?Obviously impossible.Then there is only one possibility, and that is that Li Yuanan went to Lu's house with the approval of some people.Coupled with that Jinpa, this person's name is ready to come out, Lu Antong.

Thinking of this layer, people's imagination is more abundant.

Ms. Lu actually allowed a strange man to enter her boudoir, and sneakily, which is already a taboo between men and women.What's more, even her maid didn't know about it, so this lonely man and widow are in the same room, so one can imagine what could happen.Therefore, the way people looked at Lu Antong changed.

Miaozhu was already so angry that one Buddha was born and the other ascended to heaven. If Ling Xihan hadn't stopped him, he might have wished to pounce on Li Yuanan and tear Li Yuanan to pieces.
