Chapter 328 Gift (2)
Everyone loves to hear sweet words, and Lu Mingxuan is no exception. Just now, her heart was soaring again as if she had drunk old vinegar, and she blushed and whispered: "I'm not as good as you say, it's only you who think Hello, I just said it casually just now, don't take it to heart, I believe in you, and I won't be sour and jealous in the future..."

Before he finished speaking, Ling Mengqi laughed and said: "Don't, I'm only happy that you will be sour and jealous. It shows that you care about me and really take me to heart. You don't know that before today, even if you have promised Now that I'm with you, I still worry about gains and losses from time to time, and I'm afraid that I will be overwhelmed by the burden of shaving my hair. Now I can finally feel relieved, by the way, I also have a gift for you."

As he spoke, he took out a bracelet from his bosom, and gently put it on Lu Mingxuan's wrist.

Lu Mingxuan saw that the bracelet was pink and light red like peach petals, and she could tell at a glance that it was made of a whole piece of high-quality Hetian peach blossom jade. She had only seen a jade pendant in Lu Mingzhu's makeup box in her previous life. , it is said that it was the dowry of Princess Fuhui back then, and it was the only one in the world. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was priceless, and I don't know where Ling Mengqi got this bracelet?He wanted to take it down because he was in a hurry: "Brother Ling, where did you get such a precious thing? If someone who cares finds out, maybe something will happen!"

It is well known that Jin Yiwei's way is very wild, but no matter how wild the way is, it doesn't mean that he can ignore everything. She is worried that Ling Mengqi used some shady means to obtain this bracelet. His future will also be detrimental to Yin Zhi, she doesn't want him to do these things for herself, no matter how good the treasure is, it can't compare to one of his fingers.

Hearing this, Ling Mengqi knew what Lu Mingxuan was worried about, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't worry, I got this bracelet by legitimate means. If it's not clean, I won't give it to you. You just need to wear it at ease. Yes." Thinking back to this time last year and before, when I gave Lu Mingxuan by myself, she refused to take any expensive things, let alone caring about where I got those things from, and compared her worry and concern now , while he sighed, he felt an indescribable joy and indescribable satisfaction in his heart.

However, Lu Mingxuan still insisted on taking off the bracelet, and said: "Since you say that, I feel relieved, but I don't dare to wear such a precious thing to meet people, in case someone asks where I come from It’s here, what should I say? I don’t even worry about putting it in my makeup box. You know that there are many people in the house, so you bring it back first, and in the future... I can put it in a fair manner. When Dai goes out to meet people, it's not too late to take Dai slowly."

Ling Mengqi was a little unhappy when he saw that she still wanted to take off the bracelet, but when he heard what she said later, he immediately turned from anger to joy, and happily put the bracelet away, saying: "Then I will work harder now, Try to add a few more rare treasures to you, so that you can wear them differently every day."

Lu Mingxuan said angrily: "Since it is a rare treasure, the quantity will naturally not be many, how could it be possible to wear it differently every day, you will talk big."

After being angry, he said seriously: "I don't care about any rare treasures, as long as you are safe and sound. By the way, speaking of this, I heard from Danqing that there is another task assigned to you by your superiors. You will be out again at the end of the month at least." Yuanmen, is it true? You haven’t healed yet, why do you have to go on a mission again, can’t you let other people go? Don’t think about being a high-ranking official to give me a good life, so desperately, if you do What's the point of being honorable and honorable if I'm injured all over my body, and even my life is hanging by a thread? Brother Ling, can you go and tell Shangfeng that you can't go this time, and ask him to send someone else?"

Seeing the worry and pleading on Lu Mingxuan's face, Ling Mengqi was silent for a moment, and then smiled wryly: "It's not that I want to go this time, but the two deputy commanders and a few co-prefects. Thousands of households recommended me in front of the commanding officer. I have been promoted too fast in the past two years. Previously, the commanding officer wanted to promote me to do my job, but was mixed up by the two deputy commanders. Everyone knows that I traded my life for it. There are still many people who are not convinced, and there are not a few people who are afraid that I will threaten their status. If I don't go, I will not have any prestige in the Jinyi Guard in the future. Even the commander's impression of me will be greatly reduced, so I must go this time."

It was so easy for him and Lu Mingxuan to get to where they are today. How could he be willing to let him be separated from her? Besides, he has been injured too much in the past few years, and he really needs to be raised for a while. If possible, he is really I don't want to take this mission, but there are quite a few people in Jinyiwei who hate and exclude him, and their own interests are involved. It is impossible for them to get rid of their past differences with him just because he has shown some favors, and he doesn't have that either. Do these things patiently, so the best way is to speak with strength, to make yourself so strong that others will be afraid when they mention it, and they dare not have other thoughts!

Lu Mingxuan did not expect Ling Mengqi's situation in Jinyiwei to be so difficult. She originally thought that he could be promoted to four levels in just over two years. They got along very well, who knew it would be like this.

She couldn't help tears welling up in her eyelashes, and after a while she choked up and said, "Why don't you go and ask the old man to try to transfer you to another place, or you can be transferred to other guards. Don't be afraid of suffering, not to mention that you are an official, I also have my own dowry, and we still have the Jifang Pavilion, no matter how difficult life is, we leave the capital, avoid those people and things far away, and just live in peace How about our day, how are you?"

To the former Lu Mingxuan, the phrase "Repent to teach your husband to find a Marquis" was just empty words on paper, but at this moment, she finally realized the true meaning of this sentence.

Ling Mengqi didn't want to leave the capital, but the current situation was no longer something he could leave if he wanted to, so he could only clumsily wipe away tears for Lu Mingxuan, while softly saying: "It's not that you told me that only when you become Do you have to be strong enough to protect the people and everything you want to protect? Don't you believe that I can't do it? Don't worry, even if I stay in the capital, I won't make you worry or feel wronged. "

As soon as Lu Mingxuan spoke, she already regretted it. Ling Mengqi's embarrassing status and difficult situation are not known to others, so she can still know, let alone Concubine Luo, even if the emperor does not want to see him, he will not let him leave the capital , even if the emperor agreed with him to leave, the most dangerous place in the capital is actually the safest place. Empress Xu and the first prince may not dare to do anything to him. Once they leave the capital and go to other places, the sky is far away Well, it was really easy for Empress Xu and the First Prince to deal with him.
