The reborn daughter of the Marquis Mansion takes over the world
Chapter 45 The Lobbyist
In the private room on the third floor of the Sifang Building in Kyoto, Lu Heng was drinking wine by himself, looking out the window at the bustling street scene.He looked at the bustling street, raised the corner of his mouth and snorted softly.
It has been a year since he came to Kyoto, and this picture has hardly changed. After a long time, even he himself thought that it was now a peaceful and prosperous age.
He slowly put down the wine glass in his hand and withdrew his gaze. His gaze was gloomy and deep, like a deep pool that had not fluctuated for a long time, making it impossible to pry into the true thoughts inside.
The corners of his mouth curved down slightly, revealing a hint of imperceptible disgust and exhaustion, as if he had seen too many such scenes.
After a while, a white figure stood at the door and knocked three times. Lu Heng raised his head, looked at the door calmly, and greeted the visitor with a smile.
"Qi Langjun, long time no see." Lu Heng nodded and saluted.
"Brother Lu, you're fine." Su Yanqi walked into the room and bowed slightly to him.
"I haven't seen him for several years, but Qi Lang is still so graceful and elegant."
"Brother Lu, I'm sorry. Since you've arrived in Kyoto, why didn't you meet me earlier?" After Su Yanqi sat down, Lu Heng poured him a glass of wine.
"It's a long story, Qi Langjun, please." Lu Heng raised his wine glass and toasted to Su Yanqi.
"Please." Su Yanqi also raised his glass and responded.
"There are two reasons why I came to visit Mr. Qi Lang today. One is to reminisce about the past." He put down the wine glass and stared at Su Yanqi, with a hint of emotion on his face.
"Back then, we were classmates at Haochuan Academy for many years, and we had the same goals. I thought that both of us could gain fame, enter official careers, and serve the country. But contrary to expectations, Qi Langjun chose to go into business, and I became a Staff. It’s really a trick of fate, so pathetic and ridiculous." Lu Heng sighed softly, looking a little lonely.
Su Yanqi smiled and listened to Lu Heng's words, and was also filled with emotion.
"Brother Lu, there will inevitably be times in life when you can't help yourself. Now that you have made a choice, don't regret it." He looked at Lu Heng calmly and smiled calmly.
"You are still the same as before, always believing that your choice is right."
"I just don't have any other better choice. Life is short and everything is fleeting. Why should Brother Lu cling to the past?" Su Yanqi responded calmly.
"It's true that I'm not as open-minded as Qi Langjun, but people always have to look forward." Lu Heng took a deep look at Su Yanqi and suddenly turned his eyes.
"This second thing is for Miss Ning San, who is engaged to Qi Langjun." After he finished speaking, he put away the smile on his face and looked slightly serious.
"Brother Lu, what do you mean?" Su Yanqi frowned slightly when he heard him mention Ning Ziqing, with a little doubt and a hint of unhappiness in his voice.
"Your fiancée is really too eye-catching. She performed an amazing dance at the spring banquet, which made many men in Kyoto fall in love with her. Isn't Qilangjun afraid that she will be snatched away?" Lu Heng seemed confused. With a smile on his face, he stared at Su Yanqi, trying to discern something from his expression.
"Brother Lu, you are worrying too much. Miss Third and I are in love and no one can break us apart." Su Yanqi said calmly, with a firm look on his face.
"Qi Langjun, don't be so absolute in everything. Everything depends on human effort. I advise you to be more open-minded." Lu Heng said with a hint of sincerity in his tone, trying to persuade Su Yanqi.
"It seems that Brother Lu is here to be a lobbyist today. I wonder who sent Brother Lu here? It can't be the second prince!" Su Yanqi had already guessed something. There was frost in his eyes and his tone was slightly unpleasant. Joy.
"Qi Langjun is a sensible person. Now that you know everything, I will get straight to the point." Lu Heng said with a serious expression.
"His Second Highness has fallen in love with Miss Ning San and must take her. I would like to come here to inform you because of our friendship with you as a classmate for several years."
He paused, looked at Su Yanqi, and continued to persuade: "If you have no interest in Miss Ning San, you might as well consider letting her go and write her a letter of divorce. From now on, you will have nothing to do with her marriage. What do you think?" His tone was slightly pleading and probing, trying to persuade Su Yanqi to accept his suggestion.
"What if I don't agree?" Su Yanqi asked disdainfully.
"Then don't blame me for attacking you, and don't blame me for not giving you a chance when the time comes."
"Brother Lu, are you planning to break up with me?" Su Yanqi's expression turned cold, and his eyes were filled with anger.
"Qilangjun, I don't want to be your enemy. If you insist on doing this, I won't show mercy to you!" Lu Heng said with a hint of threat and warning in his tone.
"Lu Heng, go back and tell your master to stop his wishful thinking." Su Yanqi's eyes were filled with an extremely cold chill, and his tone was as cold as an ice sword.
"I can't write this divorce letter, and he won't even try to snatch Miss Ning San away." He stood up and prepared to leave.
"Qi Langjun, given your current situation, you can't protect Miss Ning San. Why offend His Highness the Second Highness for a woman? If you don't think about yourself, you should think about your Su family." Lu Heng stopped him.
"Brother Lu, don't worry about me anymore." He said seriously, "Brother Lu, you might as well give it a try to see if I can protect Miss Ning San and the Su family." After saying this, he took a few steps quickly, and suddenly He stamped his feet and turned back to look at Lu Heng.
"I have heard a little bit about the misfortune that happened to Brother Lu's family, and I want to express my condolences. But I don't know if it's because of this that you became so scheming." Su Yanqi's eyes showed a hint of sympathy.
"The second prince has a cold nature and vicious methods. If you work for him, don't end up in vain. You may even lose your life!" Su Yanqi reminded him solemnly.
"Didn't Mr. Qilang just say that? Even if you make a decision, don't regret it!" Lu Heng said calmly, with a sense of determination in his expression.
Su Yanqi looked at him deeply, turned and left.
Lu Heng stared at his departing figure for a long time, feeling something stung him in his heart, and his expression became a little lonely and heavy.
He laughed a few times, looked away, and muttered to himself.
"Yes, when did I become so scheming? When did I become a sharp knife in the hands of others?"
His thoughts became a little complicated. After a moment, he took a deep breath and regained his composure.
His eyes were scarlet, and hatred was boiling in his chest. The wine glass in his hand was squeezed so tightly that his fingertips turned white.
"Dad, aunt, little sister, don't worry, I will definitely avenge you! If the prince harms you, I will make him lose his position as the heir apparent; if Nanyao Kingdom is sorry for us, I will overthrow this imperial power and give it to us. The entire Lu family will be buried with him!"
His voice was full of anger and determination, and his desire for revenge became stronger and stronger, eventually crushing the wine glass in his hand.
After Lu Heng returned home, Sang Lan discovered the injury on his hand and hurriedly helped him bandage it.
"Master, why are you so careless and hurt your hand?" she asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's just a minor injury, don't worry. Has His Highness the Second Prince come to see me?" Lu Heng said lightly.
"I just sent someone to send a message, asking the young master to meet him in the study."
"Okay, I'll go see him right away. ...By the way, Sang Lan, is there any place you particularly want to go?"
Sang Lan was shocked by his sudden question.
"Sir, I have never thought about this." She looked at him in surprise, not understanding what he meant.
"If you want to go somewhere, remember to tell me. I will buy a house for you and provide you with enough money so that you can have a worry-free life. After all, you, a girl, have to change your way of life. You will not have a good future with me." Lu Heng said calmly.
"Master, please don't drive me away. I just want to follow you and serve you forever. Sang Lan doesn't want to go anywhere!" Sang Lan knelt down in front of him anxiously, grabbed his hand and begged.
"Silly girl, you don't understand. The path I have chosen is extremely dangerous. If I am not careful, I will lose my life. I don't want to hurt you. I can rest assured that you are far away." Lu Heng said softly and helped Sang up. Lan, seeing her face full of tears, quickly wiped her with his sleeves.
"You have done enough for me, I have to find a way out for the rest of your life."
"Young master, do you think that even if I leave, His Highness will let me go in the future?" Sang Lan looked at him and said with determination.
Lu Heng's eyes paused, and a flash of coolness quickly flashed in his eyes.After a moment of silence, he retracted his hand and said, "That's all, let's talk about it later. I'll go see His Highness first."
"Yes, young master." Sang Lan smiled through tears, blessed him, then turned around and left.
It has been a year since he came to Kyoto, and this picture has hardly changed. After a long time, even he himself thought that it was now a peaceful and prosperous age.
