"When will Mr. Xian take action?" Chu Yue asked again.
"August 19 Qiu Mi, His Majesty is not in the palace, so this is a good opportunity." Lu Xinghe reached out and touched Chu Yue's head, "But before that, I have to ensure your safety first, and don't go to the doctor before getting married. Now that you are here, I will arrange more manpower in Baiyuan Garden to protect you."
Chu Yue nodded obediently.
"good."
After Lu Xinghe arranged things in Baiyuan Garden, he went to find Liao Meng.
He is now the commander of the guard army and is in charge of the safety of the palace. If he wants to bring down Prince Jing, he must play some role in it.
What Gu Jingning did in Baiyuan today, because there were many guests present at the time, most people in the capital heard about it.
When Liao Meng heard that Lu Xinghe was targeting him, he immediately patted his chest and promised.
"Don't worry. If Prince Jing's grandson dares to bully my sister, he is going against me, Liao Meng. You can just send someone to talk to me about what you want me to do."
Hearing his rough words, Lu Xinghe couldn't help but feel a little funny.
"It seems that you can't change your harsh words even if His Majesty gives you a strict order."
Liao Meng touched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Hey! I have been on the battlefield since I could carry a sword. I have been used to it for more than ten years. How can I change it so easily?"
Lu Xinghe stood up and patted his shoulder.
"Just be on duty, I'm leaving first."
Liao Meng stretched his neck and looked at Lu Xinghe who was walking out of the house, "Be good to my sister. When you get married, I will come to have a wedding banquet."
Lu Xinghe waved his hands as he walked.
"I'll ask someone to send you a wedding invitation later."
After leaving Liao Meng's place, Lu Xinghe went to Yuan Mansion again, and his words vaguely revealed some information. As for how Yuan Xianghui understood it, that was his business.
Chu Yue looked at Lu Xinghe who had left and returned.
"Ms. sir, if you are very busy, you don't have to stay here with me all the time."
While Lu Xinghe was handling the official documents in front of him, he replied quietly, "I'm not worried about you being here alone."
Seeing that he was busy, Chu Yue didn't bother him anymore. She just held a book and read quietly aside, occasionally glancing in the direction of Lu Xinghe.
I don’t know how long I watched it, but I fell asleep on the recliner before I knew it.
He could keenly catch the way Chu Yue looked at Lu Xinghe from time to time. He seemed to have noticed that she hadn't looked towards him for a long time, so he raised his eyes and looked in Chu Yue's direction.
On the recliner, Chu Yue slept soundly with her eyes closed, and the book in her hand was hanging by her side.
Lu Xinghe raised the corners of his lips lovingly, stood up, took the thin blanket and walked towards Chu Yue. He first took the book away from her side, and then gently placed the thin blanket on her body.
There was an indelible tenderness in his eyes.
"You don't know how to take care of yourself. No wonder you're always so thin."
After saying that, he leaned over and placed a gentle kiss on Chu Yue's forehead, pinched the corner of the quilt for her, then turned back to the case and continued to handle official duties.
…
On the ninth day of August, Xu Heng led his family to Beijing and bought a house just two alleys away from the Lu Mansion. Although it was not as big as the Lu Mansion, it was enough for the family to live.
Xu Heng made some minor repairs to the house and moved in. It took less than four days in total.
On August 12, Lu Tiesheng and his wife brought their family to visit Xu Mansion and congratulated them on moving into a new house. Chu Yue was also among them.
After eating, Xu Heng was responsible for greeting the guests, while Lu Yufang pulled Chu Yue aside and looked at her with worry.
"I was scared to death when I heard that you were assassinated. Are you feeling well?"
Chu Yue spread her arms with a slight smile on her face.
"It's already healed a long time ago."
Seeing the rosy look on her face, Lu Yufang breathed a sigh of relief.
"You have to be more careful in the future, especially when traveling far away, and bring a few more guards with you just in case."
"You said you are already a grown-up, why do you still run to dangerous places? Why don't you avoid it? Brother Xinghe is so smart, and there are so many capable people in the capital, why do you have to rush to Jiangnan to help him? "
"It's simply becoming less and less worry-free..."
Lu Yufang talked nonchalantly, and Chu Yue did not show any impatience.
"I know everything. Now that you are all in the capital, I don't need to travel far." She looked at the baby held by the nanny beside her, stretched out her hand and said, "Come, give me a hug Yan'er."
The wet nurse said yes and handed Xu Yanran into Chu Yue's hands.
Xu Yanran was not afraid of anything, she looked at Chu Yue giggling, her plump little face, and her big watery eyes, it was very pleasing to see.
Seeing her like this, Chu Yue was very happy.
She took out a piece of warm jade from her arms and hung it around Xu Yanran's neck.
"The warm jade is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is very comfortable to wear. It is my gift to Yan'er."
Lu Yufang frowned.
"She's less than a year old, why did you give her such an expensive gift? If she gets broken by this naughty kid later, I still have to feel bad for her."
Chu Yue smiled lightly and teased the little Yan'er in her arms, while saying, "It doesn't matter. If it does break, it will be used to protect Yan'er from disaster. Next time there is a suitable one, I will find a piece for her."
Lu Yufang looked unhappy, but her eyes were smiling.
"Just spoil her."
Chu Yue glanced at her.
"You are such a strict mother, why can't you make me feel distressed?"
"What are you talking about? You are chatting so happily?" After Xu Heng settled the guests, he walked in the direction of the two of them.
Lu Yufang pointed to the warm jade on Xu Yanran's neck and said in a joking tone, "Here, here is the warm jade given by my wealthy aunt. She also said that if it breaks, I can find another piece for Yan'er. What is it called? talk?"
Xu Heng raised his hand to the tip of his nose and smiled.
"It's great that Yan'er has her aunt in pain."
Lu Yufang's face was full of helplessness, "It doesn't matter, there is a father who dotes on his children, and an aunt who dotes on his children even more. From now on, in her eyes, you are all good people, and I am the bad one."
Chu Yue looked at her with a smile, then lowered her head and continued teasing the child in her arms.
"I'm busy on weekdays. It's not like you who keep an eye on Yan'er all the time. Just for a while, you can't spoil her."
Lu Yufang covered her lips and smiled.
"Yes, yes, you are the only one with so many crooked ideas. I really can't do anything about you."
At this moment, the boy at the door brought Lu Xinghe to the front hall.
"They're all here."
Lu Yufang hurriedly waved to him, "Brother is here."
Lu Xinghe greeted several elders and then strode towards the direction of Chu Yue. Looking at her gentle face with the child in her arms, a burning sensation rose in his heart, and he seemed to be unable to take his eyes away.
When Lu Yufang saw this, she looked at Xu Heng and both of them laughed secretly.
"Come, uncle, come and see Yan'er too." Chu Yue looked at Lu Xinghe with a smile.
