"Mom, I don't want to marry Yan Ruyu."
Early in the morning, Lu Jinzhi came to Mrs. Lu's room. Mrs. Lu was about to praise him for his filial piety, but she didn't expect Lu Jinzhi to say such shocking words.
Mrs. Lu stroked her heart and said in a trembling voice: "What nonsense are you talking about so early in the morning? Have you used the soothing tea that Miss Yan sent you? Drink more and have a good sleep. We will go hunting in the paddock in a few days."
"It's not nonsense. My son is serious. My son doesn't want to marry Yan Ruyu. My son likes someone else."
Lu Jinzhi said, bending his knees and kneeling in front of Mrs. Lu.
Mrs. Lu's heart was beating with fear, and she hurriedly pulled him up: "Jinzhi, don't make trouble, get up quickly, don't let your father see it, don't let your father hear what you just said, your aunt is responsible for your marriage to Ruyu If you agree, your father is also very satisfied and treats you best."
"I won't get up. I won't marry Yan Ruyu. I don't like her. If my mother doesn't agree, I won't get up."
Lu Jinzhi knelt on the ground and couldn't get up. Mrs. Lu was angry and anxious. The mother and son were in a stalemate when a loud shout suddenly sounded outside.
"what did you just say?"
Duke Lu Guo strode in from outside with a look of thunderous fury.
"Early in the morning, the Prime Minister's Office sent someone to say that the marriage was cancelled. I thought it was the daughter of the Yan family who was making trouble, but it turned out that it was you, the bastard, who caused the trouble! What did you just say? Say it again!"
Lu Jinzhi has often witnessed Lu Guogong beating Lu Yizhi since he was a child. Although Lu Guogong is very protective of him, the fear has long been engraved in his bones.
When his father was angry, a bloody whip would appear in front of Lu Jinzhi's eyes, following him like a shadow.
He could be a tool for family glory, a stepping stone for the favor of his aunt and cousin Huaiyan, but he really didn't want to marry Yan Ruyu.
"Father, I don't like Yan Ruyu. I want to marry the person I like." Lu Jinzhi knelt on the ground and raised his head and said loudly.
"Bastard! Your wings are stiff, aren't they?!" Mr. Lu Guogong was so angry that his temples were beating, and he gritted his teeth and lectured. "If you don't want the prime minister's daughter, who do you want?"
Lu Jinzhi rubbed his neck and said, "I want Qiao Yin!"
"who?"
"You evildoer!"
Lu Guogong was so angry that he couldn't bear it anymore and slapped him.
Lu Jinzhi was slapped sideways, and five finger prints immediately appeared on his face.
"Ah! Jinzhi! My son!"
This was the first time Lu Jinzhi had been beaten. Everyone in the room was frightened. Mrs. Lu knelt down and hugged her son's head in distress.
"If you have something to say, please don't hit your son. How can you let your son go out to meet people like this?"
"Meeting people? Why does he have the nerve to go out to meet people?! He can't even think of going out! If someone comes, lock up the prince immediately. He is not allowed to be let out without my order! If anyone dares to disobey the order, I will interrupt Whose hands!"
Duke Lu was furious and ordered his men to drag Lu Jinzhi down.
No one in the Duke's mansion dared to disobey Duke Lu's order, not even Mrs. Lu. She could only watch Lu Jinzhi being imprisoned by his servants.
"Master, please calm down. Jinzhi just said angry words. He has taken advantage of Qiao Yin. He will not like that shameless Qiao Yin." Mrs. Lu quickly advised.
The Duke waved his servants to leave, clapped the table and said angrily: "Forget it if he is messing around at home, he is also messing around like that in front of Yan Ruyu. Yan Ruyu has already told her father that she does not want to marry Jinzhi, because of Jinzhi's heart Not on her.”
Mrs. Lu hurriedly changed the subject for her son: "Qiao Yin has been using that other man to annoy Jinzhi recently. Jinzhi has such a strong temper and he is fooled when she is provoked. This must be the case. I will go to Qiao Yin, as long as I Qiao Yin will stop messing around, and Jin Zhi will no longer disobey the family."
"Then you go see that Qiao Yin and ask her to keep to herself. If she wants to find another man, stop pestering Jinzhi!" Lu Guogong ordered.
Mrs. Lu agreed repeatedly, then ordered someone to prepare the car and walked out angrily.
…
"Bizhu——"
When Qiao Yin woke up and opened his eyes, he felt a splitting headache and his voice was hoarse.
"What's wrong with me?" Qiao Yin asked in a hoarse voice.
Bizhu entered the door in response, and while pouring water for Qiao Yin, she replied: "Miss, have you forgotten? Last night you came back and made a fuss about drinking, so you ran to the main courtyard and dug out the wine that the master buried under the tree and drank it. "
"Ah?" Qiao Yin shook his head, not having any impression at all, "Where's my brother? He didn't stop me? That's the Huangfeng Royal Wine given by the emperor. My father said that he would drink it when he comes back in triumph."
"The eldest young master has been wanting to drink the royal wine for many days. When he saw that the young lady wanted to dig it out, he immediately went to find a hoe for you. Halfway through, young lady, you got tired and didn't want to dig anymore. The eldest young master even grabbed the young lady's hand and dug out the wine. "
"..."
Qiao Yin thought for a while, and scattered fragments appeared in her mind. She remembered that she dug out a yellow-sealed wine jar, which was as big as half a hug.
"Such a big jar, I drank it all?"
"No, the young lady drank a few sips and fell under the tree. When she saw you collapsed, the eldest young master drank. The eldest young master drank half the jar and finally fell straight under the tree."
Bi Zhu had an expression that said, "I'm really worried about this family."
"Then why don't you stop me? It's my father's treasure. What should I do now? Where can I get one?"
Qiao Yin was feeling upset when Bizhu directly brought her a bronze mirror to show her.
"Ah! Ah! Why are my eyes swollen like this?"
Qiao Yin looked at herself in the bronze mirror. Even though she was unkempt, her eyes were as swollen as walnuts.
"I stopped the young lady last night, but the young lady was crying all over the place, saying that if she couldn't drink the royal wine tonight, she would die in peace!" Bizhu said with a flat mouth.
"Young lady scared me to death last night. She opened her mouth and said, 'I'm going to die,' but she said, 'I won't live long.' She also gave me all your private money and said that it would be used as a dowry for me to marry a good family. Please tell me. The funeral is the same. Miss, are you okay?" Bizhu looked at Qiao Yin worriedly.
Qiao Yin rubbed his eyes and stretched out his hand towards her: "I was drunk last night and what I said was all nonsense. Give me the money back."
"Miss, since you're okay, I'm going to get you breakfast."
How could Pixiu Bizhu spit out the coins that were already in his pocket?
Bizhu slipped out and Qiao Yin lay down again.
Her mind was completely awake, and scenes of what happened yesterday appeared in front of her eyes, especially the fierce kiss between Xie Yuan and her.
Qiao Yin touched her lips, as if she could still feel his remaining warmth and the shuddering overcurrent.
[System, was the strategy mission successful? 】
Qiao Yin asked again without giving up.
[Unfortunately, after scanning with the system scanner, no signs of heartbeat were found in the target. Warm reminder, there are only 17 days until the end of the mission. If the host's mission fails within the time limit, all consciousness of the host will be wiped out. 】
Still got the same answer.
Qiao Yin was stunned for a while. Bizhu came in with breakfast. She opened her mouth and asked:
"Bizhu, when is it?"
"Miss, it's almost noon."
"Has Xie Yu'an come to see me?"
"Miss, General Xie didn't come today."
Qiao Yin's heart slowly dropped. She looked at the hook flower tent above her head and felt more tired than ever before.
I'm so tired and really want to take a rest.
[System, what kind of erasure method? 】
[It will be directly wiped out in the same way that the host lost his life last time. Does the host want to experience it? 】
As soon as the system finished speaking, Qiao Yin felt a heartbreaking pain. Even if it was just for a short moment, it was enough to make her feel scared.
[No, stop it! 】
In her previous life, she died in a car accident. The car flipped over and she was pressed in the car. The glass pierced her body. She watched her blood drain away little by little and died in all kinds of pain.
She never wanted to experience that kind of despair and pain again!
[I will continue to conquer the mission! 】
Qiao Yin immediately got up from the bed without saying a word.
"Bizhu, prepare the car, I'm going to the general's mansion."
As soon as Qiao Yin got up from the bed, a servant's announcement came from outside the door:
"Second Miss, the Duke's wife is here."
Qiao Yin was confused: What the hell is Lu Jinzhi doing here?
