Xiao Zhiwei had no choice but to turn around and return.
In fact, she didn't know what to say to Jiang Yingyue.
After all, she is Lu Chen's first wife.
The two are married to a matchmaker and have a daughter.
From this point of view, she looks like a woman who destroys other people's families.
"Xiaowei, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Zhen looked at the worried Xiao Zhiwei and asked drunkenly.
Xiao Zhiwei shook her head and did not answer.
He picked up the wine bowl on the table and drank from it.
On the side, Chun Zhe glanced at Jiang Yingyue who had closed the door, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
My little junior sister is good at everything, but she is a little stubborn.
Especially when it comes to relationships, he is just like his mistress.
"Miss Xiao, I'll give you a bowl!"
At this time, Xia Yu suddenly walked up.
She picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
Xiao Zhiwei looked at her and then at Lu Chen's room upstairs, and seemed to understand something.
"Why?"
Xiao Zhiwei asked drunkenly.
Xia Yu wiped the wine from the corner of her mouth with a hint of ridicule on her face.
"It's better to pull back from the brink than to regret endlessly!"
Xiao Zhiwei understood instantly and couldn't help but take another bowl.
"how about you?"
They are all women, how could Xiao Zhiwei not understand what Xia Yu was thinking.
But she was curious as to why this woman, who had only met Lu Chen a few times, was like her.
"You have only just met."
Xia Yu's eyes flashed, and there was an indescribable emotion brewing in it.
"Maybe it's really fate!"
Xia Yu said something that had no beginning or end, picked up the wine bowl and continued to drink.
Xiao Zhiwei couldn't get the answer, her heart was full of sadness, and she followed her example and poured wine into her mouth.
In the end, the group of men were not drunk, but the two girls were very drunk.
There was no other way, so Chun Zhe called some maids and sent the two girls into the guest room.
In the early morning of the next day, Lu Chen sat up covering his dizzy head.
The next moment, I felt a chill all over my body and quickly looked down.
I was shocked when I found my upper body naked.
"Husband."
"you're awake!"
At this time.
Jiang Yingyue's voice rang in her ears.
Lu Chen lowered his head and felt relieved after seeing that familiar pretty face.
He remembered that Xiao Zhiwei sent him home after he drank too much last night.
If you have sex after drinking, wouldn't you be sorry for Jiang Yingyue?
That's why I'm so panicked.
"Are you disappointed?"
A faint voice came from beside him.
Lu Chen looked at Jiang Yingyue, who was full of jealousy, and his expression suddenly froze.
The next moment he said righteously: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Is your husband like that?"
Seeing Jiang Yingyue's suspicious look, Lu Chen suddenly trembled: "If you dare to question me, I will take care of you!"
"ah……"
In the room, the feeling of spring is boundless.
On both sides of the room, two people were tortured.
I don't know who was so smart that he sent Xiao Zhiwei and Xia Yu to two rooms next to Lu Chen's room.
Originally, the two of them were still a little dizzy and did not get up.
But after hearing the voices of Lu Chen and Jiang Yingyue, he immediately couldn't sleep anymore.
The melancholy sound coming from my ears should have been something I wouldn't have bothered to eavesdrop on.
But at this moment, both Xiao Zhiwei and Xia Yu had their ears pricked up, just like an old beggar peeking at a widow taking a bath.
After a long time, the sound in Lu Chen's room stopped, and the two women spat with red faces: "Bah!"
"lecher."
But when I thought about Lu Chen and his wife, I felt that I was a little nosy.
It wasn't until noon that Lu Chen opened the door with satisfaction.
Behind him, Jiang Yingyue followed with a blushing face.
What a coincidence.
The two girls, who had been tortured and had no hope of love, also opened the door at this time.
Then, there were only four people left looking at each other.
"Shopkeeper, Master Xu's palace guard is here!"
Just when Lu Chen was embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in, the waiter's voice came from downstairs like the sound of nature.
When Lu Chen heard this, he felt like he was being pardoned.
"Come here, come here!"
Seeing Lu Chen panicking and jumping down the stairs, the three women couldn't help but laugh.
Immediately, the three pairs of eyes intertwined again.
…
The magistrate's residence.
Lu Chen had already asked the guards on the way here, what happened that actually caused the prefect to send someone to summon him.
The guard shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Lu Chen had no choice but to give up.
"Master Magistrate, bring Lu Chen here!"
It was still the familiar study room and the familiar prefect, but Lu Chen always felt that his face looked a little ugly.
"Okay, go down!"
The prefect put down a yellow scroll with a solemn expression.
Lu Chen's heart was shaken and he had a bad feeling.
Look at the scroll, it looks so much like the legendary imperial edict.
Could it be...
"Lu Chen, you are in trouble this time!"
really.
As soon as the magistrate opened his mouth, Lu Chen knew that things were not simple.
The magistrate closed the door, handed him the yellow scroll on the desk and said, "His Majesty's decree sends you to the border to defend against foreign enemies!"
"What?"
Lu Chen was stunned.
He is an honest businessman, why is he going to join the army in the blink of an eye?
Besides, with his small body, he is not the type to join the army!
"Master Xu, this..."
Xu Dehai shook his head and handed the imperial edict to Lu Chen.
"See for yourself!"
"This imperial edict is clear. I'm afraid someone is secretly retaliating and doing it deliberately."
Lu Chen looked at it three times and found that there was really no room for maneuver. Then he looked at Xu Dehai helplessly: "Sir, do you know who wants to harm me?"
Xu Dehai narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the door and window, and motioned for Lu Chen to come forward.
Lu Chen recalled, putting his ear to Xu Dehai's mouth.
After hearing Xu Dehai's words, his eyes immediately turned cold.
"I see!"
"That being said, it's not surprising!"
Seeing Lu Chen's appearance, Xu Dehai couldn't bear it.
But the imperial edict has been issued, and there is no way to reverse it.
"Lu Chen, it's going to be a disaster if you leave. You..."
It was rare to see the prefect look worried, so Lu Chen naturally knew what he was thinking.
So he pretended to be calm and clasped his fists and said: "After Lu Chen leaves, Tongfu Inn and Shenyi Pavilion will continue to operate."
"The tax rate remains unchanged. Please, the prefect, please take good care of my family for the sake of past kindness."
The prefect was so smart, he instantly understood the meaning of Lu Chen's words.
"Brother Lu, what are you talking about?"
"You can go ahead. As long as I, Xu Dehai, serve as an official in Jinzhou for one day, they will never be bullied."
Lu Chen clasped his fists in thanks, then had a conversation with Xu Dehai, and then walked out of the prefect's mansion with complicated emotions.
He knew very well that Xu Dehai was not like the previous prefect, Mr. Yan.
Xu Dehai only has interests in his eyes, and as long as the interests are enough, he can do anything.
Otherwise, why didn't Xu Dehai show up from the beginning to the end when Lu Chen confronted the earl?
Lu Chen understood all this, but there was no need to say it.
Tongfu Inn.
After Lu Chen came back, he summoned everyone.
"Everyone, the imperial edict has been issued, and I have been sent to the border to serve as an army!"
