After saying this, he just looked at Jiang Nianjiao lovingly. After a moment, he whispered softly, "Jiaojiao, we are indoors now. Let me take off your hat for you."
He originally thought Jiang Nianjiao would reject him, but this time he still didn't wait for Jiang Nianjiao's rejection. On the contrary, the woman only nodded shyly.
Seeing how well-behaved she was today, Lu Zhizhang's original anger because she said she had nothing to do with him in front of Emperor Yong was instantly extinguished.
With full tenderness, he lifted the veil off the woman's head as if she were unveiling a bride on a wedding night.
However, when the curtain was lifted and Lu Zhizhang saw clearly the face of the woman under the curtain, the smile on Lu Zhizhang's face visibly froze.
The woman's face could only be considered delicate at best. Although her eyes were full of expectation and her eyes were wandering, Lu Zhizhang still recognized that the woman in front of him was clearly Qi Peipei, the daughter of Duke Qi.
He asked in surprise, "Why is it you?"
Qi Peipei didn't realize it at all. She only asked softly, "Who else could it be if it wasn't me?"
Lu Zhizhang said nothing, but his expression was extremely gloomy.
Qi Peipei pulled his sleeve again and said, "Renqing, what's wrong with you? Didn't we have a good chat before?"
Fortunately, after Lu Zhizhang revealed the true identity of his favorite person in Lushan, the audience was also in an uproar, so no one noticed the two of them.
Obviously, no one expected that the woman Lu Zhizhang liked would be such an ugly Qi Peipei.
Moreover, Qi Peipei's current family background is not of much help to the Lu family.
For a while, the commentators were divided into two groups. One group of people didn't understand why Lu Zhizhang fell in love with Qi Peipei. They didn't know what kind of tricks Qi Peipei used for Lu Zhizhang. Another group of people felt that if Lu Zhizhang fell in love with Qi Peipei, it must be true love.
However, Lu Zhizhang didn't bother to explain at all. He felt that Jiang Nianjiao had clearly tricked him into what happened today.
However, considering his own face, he did not immediately deny their relationship. Lu Zhizhang only smiled and said, "Dear uncles and friends, I have something to discuss with Peipei, and we will not be here to accompany you for the time being."
After saying this, he almost pulled Qi Peipei out of the private room.
Unexpectedly, the outside of the private room was full of onlookers doing good things.
Suddenly it became clear that the woman Lu Zhizhang was talking about was actually the newly down-and-out Qi Peipei. For a moment, these women were obviously in disbelief.
However, Lu Zhizhang didn't care about blaming the onlookers. He just held Qi Peipei's hand and followed him until he found a secluded place. After making sure that no one was around, he repeated what he just said, "You Why are you here? Gillian asked you to take her place?"
Qi Peipei only hated to disturb the handkerchief in his hand. Until now, he actually thought that he was Jiang Nianjiao's replacement.
However, thinking of her own purpose, Qi Peipei just said innocently, "Who is Gillian? Didn't you invite me for today's date?"
While talking, Qi Peipei handed Lu Zhizhang only the last letter they had exchanged in these days.
After seeing the letter, Lu Zhizhang seemed to finally react.
"Are you the one who has been exchanging letters with me these days?" Lu Zhizhang asked in an incredible tone.
Qi Peipei nodded.
After confirming this, Lu Zhizhang immediately tore the letter into pieces angrily.
Qi Peipei still pretended to be innocent and said, "Renqing, what's wrong with you?"
Lu Zhizhang looked at Qi Peipei coldly and said, "Don't call me Renqing! You still ask me what's wrong? Why don't you ask yourself! Do you think I will marry you if you pretend to be Jiang Nianjiao?"
Qi Peipei still said innocently, "Renqing, do we have any misunderstanding?"
"Misunderstanding? Just tell me, are you pretending?"
Qi Peipei said aggrievedly, "How have I disguised myself? Renqing, I have never hinted to you who I am? Besides, didn't you call me by my nickname when we wrote to each other? I thought you liked me too." Woolen cloth."
After hearing this, Lu Zhizhang retorted, "Then why is it that every time we exchange letters, the place is Jiang's Mansion?"
Qi Peipei then said aggrievedly, "During this period,
Mother took me to Jiang's house frequently. I didn't have much time to stay at home. I saw you appearing at Jiang's house from time to time, so I came up with the idea of making a pen pal with you. After all, I really like you. For a long time. "
Although Qi Peipei pretended to be extremely innocent, Lu Zhizhang obviously did not believe Qi Peipei's words. He only sneered and said, "How can there be so many coincidences in this world? Besides, I have asked you many times in my letters what you think of King Jin." My heart, aren’t these things enough to explain to you who I like?”
Hearing that Lu Zhizhang was so aggressive, Qi Peipei finally stopped pretending. After all, pretending to be innocent is actually very tiring.
She just whispered, "Mr. Lu's guess is correct. In fact, I discovered this problem after dating you for a while. I also realized who you took me for."
"But I like you, and I can't bear to give you up, so even if you lie to me, I don't want to break off our relationship with you."
"I was just thinking that at worst, I would just be a pen friend with you and never meet each other in this life, but you always give me hope. You should also remember what I asked you. If I were not me, would you still Do you care about me? Your answer at that time really gave me hope. If not, I wouldn’t have the courage to come here today.”
Hearing this, Lu Zhizhang also fell into silence for a moment. In fact, when talking in the letter, he did feel that he and this woman were somewhat compatible. That's why he asked the other party whether he would still love her if he found out that one day he was not the person he thought he was. The answer he gave her at that time was that he loved herself.
But what he didn't expect was that she was not Jiang Nianjiao.
When he thought of Qi Peipei's deception to him, he still said coldly, "The premise of my words was just that I thought you were Jiang Nianjiao."
Qi Peipei said unwillingly, "She is pretty good, but no matter how good she is, do you think she will like you?" @
"I can tell you clearly that that is impossible. She has already asked Emperor Yong to keep the festival for His Highness Third Highness. Her name will be recorded in the document in the future. In addition to being a widow for His Highness Three Highnesses, she will spend the rest of her life as a widow. , the men next to her can’t even think about getting involved with her again.”
"She doesn't want to be with you even if she is a widow. Can't you see how much she hates you?"
Qi Peipei's words were tantamount to touching Lu Zhizhang's skin. He stared at Qi Peipei coldly, with an angry look that seemed to want to strangle Qi Peipei to death.
Even though Qi Peipei wanted to make Lu Zhizhang understand the current situation, at this moment, she was a little scared by Lu Zhizhang's eyes. She subconsciously took a few steps back, only to feel that Lu Zhizhang in front of her was clearly unfamiliar.
Therefore, she couldn't say a word about how good she was.
When Lu Zhizhang saw her showing fear, he couldn't help but take a few steps closer to Qi Peipei. When Qi Peipei had no way to retreat, he trapped Qi Peipei in his arms with only his hands.
He looked at Qi Peipei carefully, and his cold gaze was like a scalpel, only seeing her six internal organs clearly.
This was the first time Qi Peipei saw this side of Lu Zhizhang, and for a moment she just lowered her head and kept silent.
However, Lu Zhizhang lifted her chin and said, "Aren't you quite good at talking? Keep talking?"
"Or do you want me to say it for you?"
Qi Peipei didn't dare to say anything for a while, and Lu Zhizhang continued, "She is someone I will never get. I shouldn't waste my time on her."
"But you are different. You like me and are willing to do anything for me. So I should choose you."
Lu Zhizhang murmured.
Qi Peipei almost thought that he had realized her mentality. She was about to ask Lu Zhizhang if he understood her thoughts, but when she raised her head, she was met with a mocking expression.
Lu Zhizhang smiled and asked, "That's what you want to say, right?"
"Isn't what I said the truth?" This time the unwilling person was Qi Peipei.
He just laughed.
Qi Peipei thought he was mocking her own thoughts. She was particularly unwilling and said, "Mr. Lu, whether you are mocking my sincerity or looking down on my actions, since we have come to this point, I must do it." marry you."
After listening to Qi Pei
Pei's words, a trace of disgust flashed in Lu Zhizhang's eyes.
It had been a long time since anyone had spoken in such a high-minded tone in front of him.
He laughed at himself for being teased all the time, and even more laughed at himself for having stolen the chicken but lost the rice today.
However, he naturally did not believe Qi Peipei's words.
After all, if a person who has lived two lives is still deceived by the words of such a little girl, then his two lives will really be in vain.
But when he thought that he had finally seen his sincerity clearly and finally decided to let go of those things in the past, he really didn't expect that Jiang Nianjiao would give him such a surprise.
Did she really think that since she became Princess Jin, she would no longer be able to get involved with her?
Did she really think that being a deceased wife could protect her?
He had already decided not to care about the past, but since she had to make this choice, he should make it happen for her.
Anyway, this life is still very long.
Between them, it was just a matter of riding a donkey and reading the songbook.
Of course, he also knew that Qi Peipei must have new tricks waiting for him. Instead of letting her treat him like a melon that could be twisted out of her hands, he might as well take the initiative to get involved.
Anyway, as a woman, she can make so many waves.
Anyway, in my last life, wasn't she also being plotted to marry Jiang Nianjiao?
It's no different now than in the past.
After thinking about this, Lu Zhizhang didn't wait for Qi Peipei to threaten him again. He suddenly regained his gentle look before, "I haven't seen a woman like you for a long time. In fact, compared to her, maybe you are more suitable to be my wife."
