Chapter 254 Lonely
At Yan's house that day, Yan Zhenglang ordered people to prepare a sumptuous meal in order to thank Lu Ji.

Although Lu Ji exchanged cups with Yan Zhenglang during the dinner, Qingchi still saw a ray of reluctance in his expression.

She didn't know what it was that made Lu Ji suddenly feel a little depressed.

Although Lu Ji said that day that she was just drunk and didn't say anything, she vaguely felt that things were not like this.

Later, she wanted to ask him again, and he was busy with the affairs of Shuntian Mansion. He went out of the city to investigate the case several times when she went there.Yesterday she went to Shuntian Mansion again, and met Uncle Yue packing some things out of the mansion office, that's when she knew that Lu Ji had moved back to live in Lu Mansion these few days.

It turned out that he returned home because of the anniversary of his family's death.In such a huge mansion, most of the courtyards are now locked and closed. Only a few servants are left in the mansion to take care of daily life. Lu Ji himself doesn't like to live in the mansion, so as not to touch the scene and feel sad.

The imperial concubine's couch in front of her should be where Lu Ji's biological mother used to lie down and take a nap.

"Sorry..." Qingchi apologized for his gaffe.Lu Ji is dressed in white today because he paid homage to his family.

Lu Ji smiled generously, "I'm fine, you don't have to."

Seeing a slight smile on his lips, with a little loneliness.Qingchi was suddenly at a loss for words.Just now she came all the way from the gate of Lu Mansion, Uncle Yue led her way, and only met two servants on the way.The cool air from the lake mixed with the fresh breeze blowing towards the gazebo, making it a bit cooler for no reason, and the lush flowers and trees around also added to the desolation.

"You are alone, but will you be lonely?"

By coincidence, Qingchi asked such a sentence, and the smile on Lu Ji's lips froze.

Lu Ji's eyes seemed to be stained with mist in the water brought by the breeze.Now he is the only one left in the Lu family, so he is not afraid of any dignitaries, at worst, he just goes down to accompany his family, so as to save one person from being tortured by this loneliness, but!
Looking at the beautiful and beautiful woman in front of him, it was as if a beam of moonlight illuminated the eternal night and dispelled the darkness.How much he wanted to stretch out his hands and hold this beam of moonlight in his palm forever, but his heart was toward the bright moon, but the bright moon shone on others.

"I also hope that someone can come to accompany me..." His voice was low and deep, and because the surroundings were extremely quiet, the words came to Qingchi's ears clearly.

Qingchi immediately understood what he meant when he said that he hoped to have someone to accompany him.Lu Ji is currently in the period of filial piety, but next year his filial piety period will expire, and soon a matchmaker will come to make a match. After all, he is now the most ideal match for the daughter of the imperial capital.Thinking about how soon, Lu Ji might marry a wife, not to mention when he will have a child, at that time she will definitely not be able to appear by his side often.The reason why Feng Shiyang targeted her and wanted to harm her before was also because she got close to Lu Ji, which made Feng Shiyang misunderstand.

Thinking of this, Qingchi felt as if a ball of cotton had been stuffed into his chest.

"I'll accompany you!"

Caught off guard, Qingchi smiled like a flower and said such a sentence, but immediately she was startled by the words she said.

Lu Ji's chest was suffocated, and his throat seemed to be blocked by something.

"We are good brothers. When I'm in a bad mood, you drink with me. When you have something to do, I will definitely accompany you."

She hurriedly explained that although she was speaking to Lu Ji, it was more like convincing herself.

There was a smile in Lu Ji's eyes again, he didn't ask this matter any more, but asked lightly: "Yan Mo, has he left the imperial capital?"

At the mention of this name, Qingchi was silent for a moment, gently stroking the rim of the cup with his fingertips.

"It should be. He only has His Majesty in his eyes. When did he ever have me?" Qingchi smiled self-deprecatingly, "You are different. When I have something to do, you are always the first person to appear."

I don't know when, but she has become used to having Lu Ji by her side. As for the person he is thinking about, she can't talk about it all the time, so she doesn't talk about it now.

"We are good brothers." Lu Ji took a sip of tea, and the smile in his eyes grew stronger.

"Why did you come to see me today?"

Qingchi felt his heart relax, and said with a light smile: "I handed over the letter to the Ministry of Officials, please transfer me to be the head of the Armed Forces Department of the Ministry of War."

Lu Ji frowned slightly, "Have you discussed it with the Taifu?"

Qingchi shrunk his neck guiltily, "I want to cut first and then play..."

"You're confused!" Lu Ji looked at her with a terrified look, "Do you know how worried the Taifu should be when you're like this?"

"If I talk to him first, he will definitely not agree."

Lu Ji shook his head, "When I was absurd in the past, my father often taught me and forced me to study. At that time, I always wanted to do things without telling him, but now even if I want to hear him scold me, I have no chance. Yes. Qingchi, having loved ones to care about is a kind of happiness."

His earnest words made Qingchi blush, she clutched the corner of her clothes unnaturally, "But I have already done it, he will definitely scold me..."

Lu Ji sighed, "I will accompany you to confess, if the Taifu scolds you, I will bear it with you."

Qingchi's eyes lit up, he clapped his hands and said: "Great, father always praises you, if you go with me, just try to persuade him, he will definitely listen to you."

Lu Ji said helplessly: "Actually, you came to me today because you want me to be a lobbyist."

"Hey." Qingchi laughed dryly, "How is it possible, I just came to catch up with you."

Lu Ji didn't point it out, he just straightened his clothes, got up and went out.Qingchi took three steps and made two steps, caught up with his steps, stood beside him and walked with him.

From a distance, the two are surprisingly in sync.

In the study room of the Yan Mansion, Yan Zhenglang had listened to the steward's announcement that Lu Ji and his daughter came back together, and his brows were immediately filled with joy.

He is a veteran of three dynasties. He has been in the officialdom for more than 20 years and is used to storms.Yan Zhenglang has already seen Lu Ji's thoughts on Qingchi. Although children have their own marriages, he can't use their parents' orders to suppress their daughters, but from a selfish point of view, he still hopes to find someone who suits his eyes. son-in-law.

Lu Ji is the ideal son-in-law in his heart, not because there is no Gao Tang in his family to serve, but because he simply likes the child's temperament and ambition, plus he has a deep affection for his daughter, how can such a good son-in-law be missed!

When Yan Mo came to the door earlier, he could see Lu Ji's depression, and since he didn't go around the house these few days, he thought Lu Ji was disheartened towards his daughter.

Now it seems that he is worthy of being the person he fancy, and he will not give up just because of a little setback.

Just as Yan Zhenglang happily let the housekeeper welcome them in, greeted them to sit down and serve tea, the news from Qingchi made him suddenly feel depressed——

"Father, my daughter wants to apologize to you."

 People are not feeling well today, that's all...
