Lu Mingyu and Lin Wanyu are doing well here, but Zhao Changsu in the north is having a hard time.
He has never fought in a war, but now he has to fight against the Northern Barbarians without any funding from the court. He has thought about surrendering directly. After all, the Northern Barbarians are fierce. If the city is broken, his town will be bloodbathed, and countless people will be killed. Lose your life here.
However, as the new king of the north, he failed to fulfill the orders issued by the new emperor. He could wander outside and live in anonymity, but Concubine Rong, who was in the cold palace, would definitely be tortured to death by the new emperor. Lin Wanyu, who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River, would never die. Never seen the light of day.
What's the point of living alone?
But the current situation makes him feel like he is on a cliff deep in the depths. He wants to go up but there is no one who can borrow help. If he goes down, he will fall into an abyss and be shattered into pieces.
Fortunately, the people in the north are also fierce and fierce. Under the leadership of Zhao Changsu, they are united in fighting. If they can't, they can defend the city as long as they have enough manpower.
Zhao Changsu summoned adult men from hundreds of miles away to guard the city gate together in shifts, which lasted for more than half a month.
During this period, Zhao Changsu studied the Northern Barbarians day and night, and unexpectedly discovered that the main reason for the Northern Barbarians' attack was an outbreak of disease within them. They thought it was a disaster brought by the gods, so they tore up the alliance and forcibly attacked the territory of the dynasty.
All they want is to find a pure land for the surviving people.
In this way, Zhao Changsu changed his direction and tried to negotiate peace with him.
Qiantang City.
Lu Zhang originally thought that since he came forward to negotiate peace with the Li family and the Shen family, the other party would stop making things difficult, but unexpectedly he was rejected directly.
He can't figure it out!
He was obviously a friendly businessman a while ago, but the Wang family and the Qian family were still planning to open a branch next year with him, so why did they turn against him?
He didn't give up, so he wandered around several houses, and finally found out that the Li family took the lead in all this, and there was an expert behind the Li family.
Also named Lu.
"What a joke! Why didn't I know there was a wealthy businessman named Lu in Qiantang City?"
Lu Zhang didn't believe it, so he joked and told his Qian family the news, and then left.
But why did he smell something when he got home? If it weren't for such a mysterious person, how could he be suddenly ostracized by the Chamber of Commerce to this extent?
In this case, he went back to find the address of the wealthy businessman named Lu who was coming from the Qian family, and then sent a greeting card.
Lu Zhang wanted to see who this was.
Lu Mingyu saw Lu Zhang's greeting card in the study room he had just cleaned up in his new house, and threw it on the ground with a thud and ignored it.
In the next six days, I received three letters of greeting, especially the third one, which sounded impatient and provocative.
"Are you going?" Lin Wanyu read the three letters one by one and pointed to the third one: "He seems to be in a hurry."
Lu Mingyu didn't care about Lu Zhang. He only stretched out his hand to pull Lin Wanyu closer to him and said gently: "I want to see you, but just wait a little longer."
After swatting away Lu Mingyu's claws on her hanging hair, Lin Yunyu tilted her head and asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"
Not touching her hair and getting beaten, Lu Mingyu was even happier: "It just ruined his reputation."
"..."
Is this the gentlest tone and the harshest words?
Lin Wanyu was silent, but she understood him.
After much hesitation, she finally spoke: "Can I go with you?"
"Huh? What are you going to do?"
"I want to try...getting out."
The inner house was depressed. After walking out of the gate of Lu Mansion, Lin Wanyu also wanted to see the outside world.
Lu Mingyu didn't expect Lin Wanyu to be "uneasy at home", but it didn't matter. He was willing to let it go, so he directly agreed: "Okay, but the bad old man is still missing. If you are free, you can take Bai Lu to Xue Sit down at home."
"Xue Mansion?" Lin Wanyu remembered that the Qingshui Village that Lu Mingyu found out a while ago might be related to the Xue family.
"You want me to go find out the news?"
"No." Lu Mingyu took Lin Wanyu's hand again, led her to him, and pushed back the broken hair on her chest, "I just went to play with Xue Nan, don't worry about my affairs, I have Find a way to find out about this.”
"Let you go to Xue's Mansion. Firstly, it is to take Bai Lu to relax and get in touch with the outside world. Bai Lu's knot in his heart may be solved. Secondly, don't you want to go out? You can walk around more with Tongpan Mansion. It’s better than wandering around like a headless fly.”
Nothing happened, even if Lin Wanyu caused trouble outside, Lu Mingyu could still afford it now!
Lin Wanyu didn't expect that Lu Mingyu would not only agree with her idea, but also lead her out of the way so quickly, saving her the trouble of thinking about how to get out.
"You're so kind." Lin Wanyu blurted out after thinking of this, but only after finishing her words did she realize how much this stimulated Lu Mingyu.
His languid eyes suddenly burst into light, and he looked at Lin Wanyu like a wolf looking at a fat sheep. She was so frightened that she ran away with a red face.
Lu Mingyu's wanton laughter came from behind, and Lin Wanyu felt even more ashamed.
Why did she just say it? Even if I think so, I can't say it.
Okay, now, that guy is so presumptuous, how should we face him later?
After Lin Wanyu ran away in shame, Lu Mingyu summoned the stone and asked about the current situation of the Lu family.
Although they moved away from the Lu Mansion, Lu Mianting was still there, Chu Yao was still there, and Lu Mingyu arranged for top secret guards to monitor them. Although the news was lagging behind, it was also accurate.
"Lu Zhang is still busy with business matters, Lu Shengming still goes to Yunxiaofang every day, and Madam Yun Xi has fascinated him. In addition to taking care of Lu Langchen in Chenxi Garden, Lin Jinlan also met the Fifth Young Master twice. "
Stone is concise and to the point.
"Oh?" Lu Mingyu had expected it a long time ago, and he was afraid that Lin Jinlan would not miss Lu Mianting.
Over the years, Lu Mianting, the fifth young master of the Lu family, has been like a transparent person. He only talks about recovering from illness and lives in seclusion, with almost no servants or maids.
It can be said that the current appearance of Wanting Garden was built bit by bit by Lu Mianting sitting in a wheelchair.
As for why a seriously ill and paralyzed person does so much work... no one questions it, because they don't care. They only care about whether this cripple bothers them.
Lin Jinlan came to Lu Mianting, but she was also desperate.
Jinlan Garden.
Lin Jinlan has been looking very bad recently. She has to take care of Lu Langchen, and is busy filling the hole for Lu Shengming. She also has to hide the gambling debt from Lu Zhang. It can be said that she is exhausted physically and mentally.
She desperately needs a helper.
Lu Mianting, as the most inconspicuous existence, was exactly what she wanted.
"Mother, I have thought about what you said. I agree, but there is only one condition."
This is Lu Mianting's third visit to Jinlan Garden. The first two times he came here with a wheelchair, but this time it was the first-class maid next to Lin Jinlan who pushed him here.
Lin Jinlan was not surprised by this: "Just tell me, I will think about it carefully."
"Mother, my son is almost weak and has not yet married..." Lu Mianting looked shy.
But Lin Jinlan rolled her eyes fiercely. She wanted to say: What kind of wife do you want, a cripple?
But now she could only say politely: "Xiaowu, you also know the current situation of the Lu family. As a son of the Lu family, you should put your career first. Since you agreed, you will do business with the boss in the future. With the foundation of your career, mother Let me show you a girl from a good family."
To put it bluntly, Lu Mianting is as thin as a chicken now and still sits in a wheelchair. What use will he get if he has a wife?
But Lu Mianting insisted: "Mother, there is a choice for my son, but I'm afraid it will wrong my elder brother."
"What?" Lin Jinlan couldn't believe her ears, and her voice was raised unconsciously: "You have a crush on Chu Yao? She's your sister-in-law!"
"No, no, no!" Lu Mianting shook his head in panic: "How dare my son covet his elder sister-in-law! My son is interested in one of his elder brother's concubines, and he only hopes that his mother can fulfill her wish!"
Lin Jinlan breathed a huge sigh of relief, it scared her to death!
Her mind was spinning several times just now. If Lu Mianting was really so bold, she would have to teach him a lesson!
But luckily.
"Who is it?"
"Gao Qiong."
"Who?" Lin Jinlan almost forgot about this person. She was stunned for a long time before she remembered, "Oh! That Gao's daughter."
Speaking of Gao Qiong, Lin Jinlan couldn't keep calm. It was this foxy girl who almost disturbed Brother Sheng's marriage, but now it seems that Chu Yao is not the most suitable candidate.
Lin Jinlan's frown could not be relieved after welcoming two women she was dissatisfied with into the house.
Since Lu Mianting wanted this rag, Lin Jinlan had no reason to refuse, but before agreeing, she indirectly asked Lu Mianting when he wanted to marry a wife?
Lu Mianting was as shy as a foolish elder: "Every morning, there is a reaction... What my son thinks is that my son is not in good health. If he marries a girl from a good family, I'm afraid there will be no harmony there, but if he marries a girl from a good family, my son will not be able to live in harmony." I am afraid of staining my mother’s eyes, so I might as well choose someone with experience in the government, so that my son might have an heir in the future..."
Lu Mianting said it shyly, as if he was just starting to fall in love.
Lin Jinlan understood the meaning behind the words: Gao Qiong, that bitch, had charmed Brother Sheng into having sex in Jing'an Temple many times, so she must have some skills on her.
Xiaowu really knows how to choose!
But, he still wants an heir?
ridiculous!
As soon as Lin Jinlan agreed, she sent Nanny Lin to give Gao Qiong a pot of red flowers.
A woman who is infertile is suitable for that good-for-nothing Lu Mianting!
If Lu Langchen hadn't been seriously injured and Lu Shengming hadn't been willing to do business properly and had to run to Yunxiaofang, she wouldn't have been so powerless!
She needs Lu Mianting to help her stabilize her rear end, so that she can find the energy to settle the score with Lu Mingyu!
Did he think it was over when he left Lu Mansion? He hurt Xiao Qi deeply. As a mother, how could she allow her enemy to live happily outside?
However, before she could take any action, Nanny Lin came back in a hurry, looking impatient.
"What's wrong? That bitch of Gao Qiong doesn't want to drink?" Although Lin Jinlan felt that Nanny Lin would not be able to handle such a thing, she could not think of anything else besides this.
But Nanny Lin said: "Aunt Gao, she has had a miscarriage..."
"Clang-"
Lin Jinlan tore off the pearl necklace around her neck and tied her mouth and tongue: "You...what did you say?"
