Husband is extremely regent

Chapter 153 The Plan Can't Keep Up With Changes

Lu Xu looked at the jade pendant curiously, and found nothing unusual except that it was a good jade pendant with warm tentacles, and concluded that it was an ordinary jade pendant.

After thanking the old lady, he returned to his seat, and accidentally met the jealous eyes of the third lady, Lu Xu felt a little baffled, is it just an ordinary jade pendant?
Probably because after a long time in business, people will become philistines, and they think everything is profitable, so consciously or unconsciously, Lu Xu can always find that the eyes of the third lady have been wandering around her.

Lu Xu simply tied the jade pendant around his waist and used it as a restraint, and he will show you as much as you like.

The third lady's eyes seemed to have been pricked by a scorpion, she quickly turned her face away and looked away, seeing a handsome young man sitting opposite her, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Lu Xu noticed the expression of the third lady, and followed her gaze to see Lu Jie's elder brother, the seventh son, Lu Yang. He was not as young and exquisite as his father in terms of appearance, but there was a strong bookish look between his brows, and his eyes were gentle and quiet, which made him feel very sad. People can't help but want to get close when they see it.

Suddenly remembering Lu Jie's words just now, Lu Xu said with a smile: "Seeing Brother Seven, I suddenly thought of someone who is very suitable for Brother Seven."

"Who?"

Lu Jie asked excitedly.

Lu Xu smiled and said, "You know him too, just think about it."

"I know who it is, and I know it too. It has been to our house." Lu Yi used the method of elimination, and guessed who it was all at once.

"We know each other, we match Seventh Brother's age and appearance, and someone who has been to our house..." Lu Jie said, "It's a good match, and I like it very much. If she comes to be my sister-in-law, there will be no harm." question."

The third lady didn't expect Lu Xu to speak first, and said flatly, "Yang'er is the most outstanding boy in this generation, how can marriage be a joke."

"Grandmother has seen it too, and you praised her for being quiet and docile, not as noisy as we are." Lu Jie took no time to remind the old lady that as long as the old lady spoke, it would be useless for the third-bedroom to recommend her niece.

"I've seen it too..."

The old lady was a little surprised, and Nanny Ji immediately whispered a reminder in her ear.

"It turned out to be that child, and Xiao Qi is indeed a good match." The old lady also took a look at Lu Yang, and nodded in agreement.

Lu Yang was embarrassed by everyone's words: "It's a good family banquet, why are you talking about these things, besides, the elders and children are orderly, the fourth brother is not married yet, how can I beat him."

Lu Chong and his younger brother Lu Shang seem to be very close in ranking, but there is actually a big difference in age.

Because there are three older sisters in the middle, just like the parents, the age gap between the third uncle and the next three younger brothers is also very large.

Suddenly mentioning the fourth son Lu Shang, Lu Xu said with a smile: "The third aunt likes to kiss more. The third brother married the third aunt's natal cousin, and the fourth brother must be married to a girl from her natal family. I also have a company with my third sister-in-law, so I can relieve my homesickness."

The Fifth Madam smiled and said, "Xu'er is very right. I remember that the Third Sister-in-law was quite concerned about the fact that Mu Yu's biological mother was not from her natal family."

Lu Xu's eyes immediately lit up when he heard it. According to the Fifth Madam, the current third sister-in-law is not Lu Chong's first wife, but a second wife. However, judging from Lu Chong's attitude towards Lu Muyu, the relationship with his deceased wife should be very close. good.

Lu Shang took a meaningful look at Lu Xu and said, "Sixth Sister, I heard that the person that Uncle Six is ​​looking for for you is Fanxing, the number one son of Nanli Kingdom."

"Everyone in the capital knows this, and it's nothing new." Lu Xu admitted openly, "The day before yesterday, he was outside the gate, helping us to keep away all the gangsters. He thought there was no one in the mansion, but I didn't expect you all to be there. later……"

"Later he left, leaving you alone to be punished." The third lady sneered coldly.

"I made him go." Lu Xu retorted casually, "I'm afraid he knows that you have bullied me before, so he can't help but beat you."

"Okay, Xu'er, don't mention the past." The old lady hurriedly interrupted the two of them and said, "It's rare for everyone to get together, so just treat it as a face to my old lady, and have a quiet meal."

"Yes, grandmother."

Lu Xu responded readily, deliberately playing with the jade pendant.

The third lady said with a look of disdain: "Nanli country's first son, it's just a fancy name, and it can't be eaten..."

"Mr. Fan, you are presumptuous." The old lady sneered coldly: "Mr. Fan has a noble status, how can you, a little woman, make irresponsible remarks, be careful of your head."

"Mr. Fan, it must be the boy who sat in front of the gate when I competed with you that day." The old man took a sip of his wine and said, "That young man is really energetic, and his appearance is better than your father's when he was young. I can’t see through his cultivation at a glance.”

Lu Xu replied without hesitation: "Back to grandfather, there are only two people my granddaughter can't beat in Kyoto, one is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the other is Mr."

"You called him Mr.?" The old man looked at Lu Xu puzzled.

"Back to grandfather, Mr. Fan would go to Xuan Yuan to teach piano in his spare time, and they met at that time."

Lu Jie immediately answered on Lu Xu's behalf, and said with a smile, "Xu'er is used to calling you Mr., and can't change it, but Mr. Fan doesn't care, but thinks this is very interesting."

Lu Yang couldn't help teasing Lu Xu: "You all want to go to the mausoleum city to appreciate the plum blossoms together, so you don't change your mind, so you're not afraid of being misunderstood?"

"Right now, the Ministry of Snow is sending troops to besiege Xuecheng, so we may not be able to go there." Lu Xu was a little disappointed: "Although you don't have an official position, you will always be requisitioned by the court unconditionally whenever you encounter any major events. This time, you should also No exception."

"You're right, Jingze has been requisitioned unconditionally again."

Lu Yi's voice came from outside, and people also came in and sat down after seeing everyone one by one.

Sitting down, he continued to talk to his daughter: "The emperor means that he will go to Xuecheng first, listen to the request of the Xuebu first, and then the court will decide whether to fight."

Guessing that the emperor would arrange this way, Lu Xu was not too surprised, but he heard his father continue: "Nangong Lian has been captured by Mr. Gu, you still have to go to Lingcheng to help Longqueying eradicate the remaining power of the Nangong family."

"I?"

Lu Xu pointed at himself, why?

It's not polite for the emperor to use her.

Lu Yi smiled and said: "The emperor said that you have been free recently, so you happened to go out for a walk."

As soon as this remark came out, Lu Xu had nothing to say, but the third lady unconsciously showed a little complacency, and heard Lu Xu say: "Accompany the future stepmother, my daughter has no objection."

stepmother?

The people present looked at Lu Yi in surprise.

For the first time in history, Lu Yi did not dismantle her daughter's position, and in the eyes of others, it was her acquiescence.

The Fourth Madam and the Fifth Madam are well aware that Lu Xu said this on purpose so that the third fang would have no excuse to force someone to Lu Yi,
The old lady also understood the meaning of the father and daughter, smoothed things over and said: "Okay, everyone is here, don't just talk about outside things, it's rare for the family to get together, today we're going to have a few drinks, and we won't go home until we're drunk."

After a few glasses of wine, everyone gradually became less nervous, and the family banquet lasted for two hours before it ended.

Back in Shangsu Garden, Lu Xu wanted to throw herself on the big bed, but found that her bed had already been occupied by a group of people, and suddenly thought of a serious problem:
"I'm leaving, who will take care of the cat?"

"Of course it's the blue bird and the crested ibis, and the maidservant and Qingluan accompany the young lady to the Mausoleum."

Suzaku assigns work according to the usual practice, Crested Ibis takes care of everyone's food, and Jade Bird is responsible for protecting Shangsu Garden.

Lu Xu thought for a moment and said, "As for the matter of cats, I still need to say hello to my grandmother, and ask her to remind everyone, so that no one has bad intentions and deliberately asks for it, or kills a diaphragm or two. answer me."

"Miss is still thoughtful."

Suzaku agrees very much, today she also met people from the third room, and she would do any immoral thing to suppress our sixth room.

Suddenly he couldn't help but sighed: "I see Sanfang's strength, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the south in a short time, if it's delayed until the end of the Chinese New Year...how can people live this day."

"The matter of the cat is settled, the key is the problem of returning people."

After thinking about it, Lu Xu got up from the bed and saw that the light in his father's study was still on, so he walked over and knocked on the door.

"come in."

A voice of permission came from inside.

Lu Xu pushed the door open and went in, seeing the official documents piled up on the desk, he said: "Father, I think the third bedroom is still determined, and as soon as he comes back, he will give the fourth uncle and the fifth uncle two concubines each, and the fourth aunt and the fifth aunt. Wept angrily, and said in front of my daughter, if you want to use tricks to stuff people on your bed, my daughter can't help but divide her into 18 yuan."

"Just tell them what you said yesterday, and give them a stern warning." Lu Yi stopped writing and glanced at his daughter. If the third bedroom really dared to use dirty tricks on him, in fact, he would solve it directly without his daughter .

"No, I changed it to a cruel and terrifying term." Lu Xu said unhurriedly: "I warned the third room that if she really dares to use tricks on you, she will be sent to you along with those women who are trying to get their hands on you. Go to Chi Xiao's territory, let them and Chi Xiao satisfy each other, and save the innocent villagers there."

"Chi Xiao is just a legend."

"Lu Muqing looks like Chi Xiao's bloodline."

"Didn't Lu Chong say that he got involved with Chi Xiao again because of his illness?"

Lu Yi felt that her own thinking couldn't catch up with her daughter's weird thoughts, and she could think of Chi Xiao's head only because of her black spots.

Lu Xu explained his reasons: "Looking at the medical history of ancient and modern times, except for poisoning, skin darkening, ulceration and disfigurement, my daughter has never seen any disease that can distort the facial features of normal people, and it is not a sequela of stroke in the elderly. .”

"Big Thousand World, there are so many things you don't know, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand."

Lu Yi corrected her daughter's thinking: "Also...you are not allowed to speak coldly to Mu Yu in the future, and make insinuations. Her faults cannot be blamed on her."

"In any case, it is the blood of the Lu family, suffering from illnesses, and facing harsh and vicious criticism from the outside world." Lu Yi paused and said, "It is not easy for this child...to survive to this day, and her situation is no worse than yours. My mother was poor back then, so get along well with her in the future, you know?"

"Yes, father."

Lu Xu obediently responded, "Father, why did Mu Yu's mother die so early?"

Unexpectedly, my daughter already knew about the old affairs of Sanfang, so she said indifferently: "Father is not very clear, they went to the south very early, only know that she is from a barbarian tribe, your third brother met when he was doing business in the barbarian tribe, and then they got married As husband and wife, it's just that your third aunt has been unwilling to admit this marriage."

"How did he die..." Lu Yi thought for a while and said, "The letter didn't mention it in detail at the time, it only said that he died of a sudden illness, so there was no need to explain it."

"The barbarians in the south..." Mentioning the background of the late third sister-in-law, Lu Xu thoughtfully said: "It is said that the southern barbarians are good at using Gu. Is it possible that Lu Muyu became like that because of the poison?"

"Did Shangguan Shouruo not tell you the diagnosis result?"

"He hasn't found the cause yet..." Lu Xu couldn't help yawning halfway through the sentence.

Seeing her daughter's appearance, Lu Yi said: "Okay, you have to get up early tomorrow, so you should go back to sleep quickly, Mr. Gu is not a Brahmacharya, and he has no patience to wait for you to stay out of bed."

"Daddy, you should also go to bed earlier, good night."

There was no chance to take a nap during the day, and Lu Xu didn't force himself, so he obediently went back to his room to sleep.

The next day, at the gate of the city.

Seeing Lu Xu's going out, Gu Jiaolong struggled for a while and said, "Miss, we are going out for business, not for a trip. Time is tight and we must hurry up."

"My father didn't make it clear to me. I didn't know you were in a hurry." Lu Xu explained aggrievedly, and Gu Jiaolong took a deep breath and said, "The news of Nangongqian's arrest can't be kept secret for a long time. We are in a hurry. We have to hurry before the news reaches Mausoleum City, catch them by surprise, and wipe out the rest of the party."

"Is it enough for the two of us to play the vanguard?"

Lu Xu thought about it and asked, anyway, Gu Jiaolong only brought a team of seven people.

Gu Jiaolong said indifferently: "To eliminate the remnant party this time, we need the cooperation of the Tangling Palace and local officials, but this envoy has never dealt with the Dongling Palace..."

"It's a trivial matter, I'll take care of it." Lu Xu grabbed Gu Jiaolong's wrist, and said with a smile, "Let's go there first, find out the situation, discuss the plan with the people over there, and wait for our people to come over." Come and act."

"..."

Gu Jiaolong wanted to say something, but suddenly his eyes became cloudy, and sometimes it was even pitch black.

When there was a sudden light in front of his eyes, Gu Jiaolong instinctively raised his hand to cover his eyes, and put it down after he got used to it. He was surprised to find that they were no longer at the east gate of Kyoto.

Suddenly saw and smelled a strong fragrance of plum blossoms, raised his head and saw the red plum blossoms all over the mountains, and the faint figure under the plum blossoms, turned his head and looked at Lu Xu in disbelief and asked: "This is..."

"Plum Blossom Valley in Mausoleum City."

Lu Xu inhaled the fragrance of flowers in the air, and the cold air refreshed his heart and spleen.

Looking at the red plums all over the mountains and plains, no wonder Fanxing brought her here to enjoy the plum blossoms, it can be regarded as a small fairyland on earth.

Even though he knew that after reaching a certain level of cultivation, he would be able to travel thousands of miles by himself, but Lu Xu didn't call it a journey of thousands of miles, it was clearly a thousand miles in an instant.

Explaining that she was able to win that day, it was Lu Xu who deliberately let her win, and she heard Lu Xu say: "I didn't deliberately let the water go that day, it was because my cultivation level improved again after that day, and at this speed, I am far from the great success of "Burning Moon Kungfu". How long will it take?"
