Chapter 247
Lu Ji sighed heavily, and stepped into Yan's mansion again.

He originally thought that Yan Zhenglang would lead him to the study to talk, but he didn't expect Yan Zhenglang to turn directly into the courtyard where Qingchi lived.

Yan Zhenglang entered the courtyard gate, but when he turned around, he saw Lu Ji hesitated.

He didn't say anything, just looked at Lu Ji meaningfully, and walked straight to Qingchi's room.

The servant girl announced Yan Zhenglang's arrival long ago, and Qingchi greeted him at the door.

"Father."

She drank too much last night and woke up today with a splitting headache. It was only after listening to her mother's story that she realized how thrilling she had encountered last night.

But before she got nervous about last night's experience, Yan Zhenglang sent someone back to tell how Lu Ji turned the tide in the court today, and fought back desperately under the circumstance of being impeached and committed crimes, and found out the behind-the-scenes of buying murder and hurting people black hands.

Yan Zhenglang nodded, and when he looked up, he happened to see a stern man sitting quietly at the round table, dressed in a dark blue narrow-sleeved cloth robe, his handsome and steep features contrasted with his austere aura.

Different from Lu Ji's indifference, although Lu Ji seldom shows his emotions on the face, he has enthusiasm and compassion in his heart. What Yan Zhenglang saw in this person is a real indifference and indifference to everything.

Yan Zhenglang knew that Qingchi had been by the empress's side since he was a child, and Yan Mo was the guard chosen by the former emperor. Although the three grew up together, Yanmo and Qingchi had always been around Ning Yuezhao in the pattern. The two of them didn't have much interaction, at least that's what Yan Mo did to Qing Chi.

Although Lu Ji has always been secretive about his thoughts, how could he hide it from Yan Zhenglang, a seasoned veteran?Although he never asked his daughter what she meant, Yan Zhenglang obviously preferred Lu Ji in his heart.

As Ning Yuezhao's bodyguard, Yan Mo naturally recognized the Grand Tutor, and immediately got up and saluted, "I've seen the Grand Tutor!"

"Excuse me, Deputy General Yan." Yan Zhenglang nodded to him, motioning him to sit down.Yan Mo just stood there. He is a general, but it doesn't mean he doesn't understand etiquette.

At this time, Qingchi noticed Lu Ji who was walking slowly in the courtyard, and greeted happily: "You are here!"

Seeing her bright smile, the frost and snow in Lu Ji's heart gradually melted, "Yeah."

Qingchi saw that he was not walking as fast as before, so he walked up to him in a few steps, "I was so drunk last night, I made you laugh. You saved me last night, and today you caught my framer for me twice in Chongtian Palace. I really don't know how to thank you."

Lu Ji twitched the corner of his mouth, "As a Shuntian government office, this is my duty."

Only then did Qingchi notice the bruise at the corner of his mouth, she felt that Lu Ji today was indescribably weird, "Are you seriously injured?"

Lu Ji shook his head, pointed at the corner of his mouth, "A little injury."

Qingchi suddenly said, "That's why I'm tired. The interrogation last night last night, and I went to...Really, why are you still visiting me? You should go back and rest."

Lu Ji raised his eyebrows to look at her, was he caring about him?

At this time, Yan Zhenglang coughed lightly in the room, "What are you doing outside? I drank so much wine last night, and the hangover is still blown outside!"

Qing Chi entered the room with a little embarrassment, and sat down next to Yan Zhenglang, while Lu Ji sat next to Qing Chi under Yan Zhenglang's gesture, facing Yan Mo.

"The old man heard yesterday that Vice General Yan led the imperial army to return to the court. Are you going to stay in the imperial capital this time?"

Yan Mo shook his head, "Originally I was going to leave today, but this morning I heard that Qingchi was attacked last night, so I happened to have something to stay for another two days, so I came to visit."

He is a person who doesn't know how to bend and turn, and he can say what he thinks directly.

After Yan Zhenglang finished listening, he glanced at his daughter, only to see that she bit her lower lip and lowered her head slightly.

This is lost.

"Lieutenant Lao Yan has lost his mind, my little girl is not up to date! If I didn't go out to drink yesterday regardless of my injury, and I drank until the sky was dark, I wouldn't have given others a chance to plot." Yan Zhenglang said slightly reproachfully.

"Father!" Qingchi was a little impatient, how could his father expose her in this way!

Yan Mo looked at Qingchi, "Are you injured? When did it happen?"

Lu Ji immediately understood that Yan Zhenglang was helping him, but!

When he came to Yan Mansion just now, he had already walked out of the courtyard, but he heard the conversation inside, the female voice was from Qingchi, the male voice was very strange, but through the open door, he saw the man, it turned out to be Yan Mo!
Lu Ji claimed that he was not a coward, but at that moment he didn't have the courage to go in.

But now, after thinking about Yan Zhenglang's few ordinary questions, Lu Ji suddenly realized.Even if Yan Mo came to visit Qingchi now, he never cared about Qingchi at all.They are not in love with each other, why should he retreat!What's more, Qingchi promised him yesterday that he would marry him after his filial piety, so why should he care about Yan Mo!

Seeing Lu Ji's eyes light up again, Yan Zhenglang was quite relieved.If Lu Ji wanted to retire like this, he was not worthy to be his son-in-law.

On the other hand, Qingchi didn't look happy after hearing Yan Mo's question.If he hadn't passed by the imperial palace yesterday, his words might have made Qingchi cheer for a whole day, but now, Qingchi just pretended to be relaxed and said: "It was only six days ago, a little injury, it doesn't matter. "

Hearing that she was fine, Yan Mo thought she was fine, so he didn't ask further, "No matter what, it's not good to drink alcohol when you're injured."

As for Lu Ji, when Yan Mo met him earlier, he looked like a rich man looking for fun in a restaurant.When Yan Mo left the imperial capital, the Lu family hadn't overturned the case. He still didn't know about Lu Ji's transformation. He thought that he, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, was just making compensation to the Lu family because of Ning Yue's guilt.

Since Lu Ji was with Qingchi, knowing that she was hurt, he didn't persuade her, Yan Mo shook his head secretly, but he still didn't express any accusations on his face.

Yan Zhenglang waved his hand and said, "Anyway, the person who hurt you in the Imperial Academy has now been found out by Yunchu, and His Majesty sent her to the Ministry of Punishment, which is considered fair to you."

Yan Mo looked at Lu Ji, a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes, does this rich man still have such abilities?However, he is not an inquisitive person by nature, so he was only puzzled for a while.

Thinking of Feng Shiyang, Qingchi solemnly said to Lu Ji: "You have helped me so many times, I really don't know how to thank you!"

After finishing speaking, she got up and was about to bow down to Lu Ji. Lu Ji was beside her, and he immediately held her arm, shook his head, and said in a firm tone: "If you treat me as a friend, don't say these things!"

Qingchi looked into his eyes, feeling a little confused for a moment.

Before helping her regain Huiyuan's name and wash away the grievance of arson in the Green Bamboo Pavilion, she thought that Lu Ji was because of his admiration for Ning Yuezhao.But these two incidents can be said to have nothing to do with Ning Yuezhao, Lu Ji still helped her without hesitation...

Seeing this, Yan Zhenglang stroked his beard with a smile, "Yun Chu has done my little girl a great favor this time. I have nothing to thank you for. I can only prepare some wine and vegetables. Don't be disgusted. By the way, Vice General Yan and my little girl He is a good friend, and today he came to visit specially, why don't we stay for lunch together."

Yan Mo got up, cupped his hands and said: "Thank you for your kindness, but Yan still has some things to deal with, so I have to say goodbye."

Qingchi suddenly came back to his senses, subconsciously said: "What is so important, I don't even have time for a meal!"

Yan Mo glanced at Lu Ji's arm that was still supporting her, still with that cold expression, "It's inconvenient to disclose anything about the military affairs, so I'm leaving."

After speaking, he saluted Yan Zhenglang and left.

"This old man is giving Lieutenant General Yan a ride." Yan Zhenglang got up and walked out.

There were only two people left in the room, Lu Ji let go of Qingchi's arms, but Qingchi stood on the spot with his hands hanging down, and did not catch up.

After a long time, Qingchi let out a long breath, and when he turned his head to look at Lu Ji again, his face was relaxed again.

"Are you okay?" Lu Ji asked with concern.

Qingchi shook his head, "It's okay, it's just that I drank too much last night, and now I still have a headache."

"last night……"

Lu Ji was hesitant to ask her about last night, but before he finished his sentence, Qingchi asked him nervously, "I was too drunk last night, I can't remember anything today, I didn't do anything to embarrass me yesterday thing?"

Lu Ji's face "swish", it was whiter than the gray of the wall.
