Chen Long looked at Meng Qianqian warily.

Meng Qianqian said: "Anyway, between husband and brother, you choose one!"

"Meng, Xiao, Jiu!"

Outside the small garden, Lu Yuan's stern shout suddenly came.

Meng Qianqian shuddered and said to Chen Long, "Actually, I already have a husband, so you can only be my brother! It's settled! I have to go and coax my husband first!"

She stood up and hurried down the steps.

After walking a dozen steps, he seemed to have thought of something, and smiled back at Chen Long: "Brother, my name is Xiaojiu! I live in the Governor's Mansion, remember to come find me!"

Chen Long was stunned.

Meng Qianqian quickly left the small garden and came in front of Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan had a cold expression, and there was endless murderous aura lingering around him, as if he was ready to kill someone at any time.

Meng Qianqian raised her hands that were wrapped like dumplings and said pitifully, "We are trying to win over Chen Long."

Lu Yuan's eyes fell on her Zongzi hand: "Is it a self-torture trick as well?"

Meng Qianqian gritted her teeth and nodded.

You may not believe it, but Ben Yinhu...made a mistake in his attack.

But she can't say that, she also wants to save face.

Lu Yuan snorted coldly: "Humph."

Banxia had already taken Baoshu to find the old lady, while Yu Zichuan went to eat melons. Only Meng Qianqian, Lu Yuan and Qingshuang were left here.

Meng Qianqian blinked and immediately turned the tables: "I almost got the words out of him just now."

Lu Yuan said coldly: "So, I have disturbed your interest?"

"I dare not." Meng Qianqian said hurriedly, "I can actually guess a little bit. He must have come to Lin Wan'er to ask for the Monkey Order on the orders of Princess Wanping. Princess Wanping really spared no effort to get the Grand Commander."

It was clever of her to direct the blame upon him.

Lu Yuan asked back, "You are the one who made a bet on me, right?"

Meng Qianqian: “…”

Meng Qianqian smiled: "By the way, isn't the Monkey Order in the hands of the Grand Commander?"

Lu Yuan said: "I went back."

He is not one of the Twelve Guards, so it is useless for him to hold a token.

Meng Qianqian: "Oh. Then, shall we go to the banquet?"

Lu Yuan said coldly: "I don't want to eat anymore."

Meng Qianqian was stunned: "Huh?"

Qingshuang said: "Everyone at the banquet was cursing the Grand Commander, and the Grand Commander didn't want to embarrass himself in front of his wife."

Meng Qianqian chuckled: "So, my husband also needs to save face."

Lu Yuan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he said expressionlessly: "I just think they are too noisy, and the food at the Lu family doesn't look good at all!"

Meng Qianqian suppressed her smile and said, "Yes, yes, how can the Lu family's chef compare to ours?"

Lu Yuan put his hands behind his back: "It's good that you know."

Meng Qianqian curled her lips and said, "I'll go see if my great-grandmother is awake. If she is, we'll go home together."

The old lady was deep in the inner house, so Lu Yuan had to pass by the courtyards of the old lady and several other female relatives. It was inconvenient for him to go there, so he waited for her in the small garden.

Chen Long is missing.

Qingshuang asked, "Do you want to follow me?"

Lu Yuan said: "You can't follow him."

Qingshuang wanted to say something but stopped herself.

It doesn’t matter whether you can keep up or not, the main thing is to slip away and eat melons.

Lu Yuan walked around the garden for a while.

Suddenly, a man in his early twenties, dressed in gorgeous clothes, swaggered into the small garden.

Behind him, there were several tall and burly guards.

"Oh, who is this? Isn't this the famous Grand Commander?"

He walked straight behind Lu Yuan and laughed heartily.

But if you look closely, the look in his eyes when he looked at Lu Yuan was clearly disrespectful.

Lu Yuan turned around, a smile on his lips: "It turned out to be Master Wei. Isn't Master Wei accompanying Madam Wei in Qizhou? How come you have time to come to the capital?"

Wei Mingxuan shook the headband on his head and said proudly: "My uncle is back in Beijing, so of course I have to come and see him! I will live in Beijing from now on!"

The uncle he was referring to was none other than Prime Minister Xun, who had just been conferred the title of Duke.

Wei Mingxuan's smile faded coldly: "I heard that my cousin was beaten up in your house a few days ago. Are you just working like a slave for my uncle?"

He had just arrived in Beijing. He was still on the road when Xun Yu was beaten into a birthday god by the old lady. It was only when he entered the Duke's Mansion that he learned that his cousin was in trouble.

The retired emperor had said that the old lady was not to be touched, so he naturally couldn't go against the retired emperor, so he could only find trouble with Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan smiled without changing his expression: "Master Wei is really well-informed."

Wei Mingxuan corrected him: "Call me cousin!"

Wei Mingxuan's mother is the younger sister of Prime Minister Xun. He lived in the Xun family for several years when he was a child, and he and Lu Yuan have known each other since childhood.

But at that time, Lu Yuan was just a skinny horse boy.

Wei Mingxuan sighed sarcastically, "I really miss that time. The horses you fed were always fatter and stronger than those fed by others. Ah, did you sleep well in the stable?"

Lu Yuan's smile deepened: "Of course it smells good. If you are jealous, I can build you an identical stable."

Seeing that he had failed to irritate Lu Yuan after several attempts at humiliation, Wei Mingxuan got annoyed first.

He extended his index finger, poked Lu Yuan's chest rudely and said, "Remember this, young master, you are my uncle's dog for one day, and you will be my uncle's dog for the rest of your life!"

Qingshuang took a step forward.

Wei Mingxuan was not afraid at all. He glanced at Qingshuang with a sarcastic look and said to Lu Yuan, "What? Do you still want to attack the master?"

Lu Yuan curled his lips and smiled: "My cousin, you are too kind. I will remember your words."

Wei Mingxuan then withdrew his hand contentedly and used a handkerchief to wipe the fingers that had just touched Lu Yuan, as if he had touched something dirty.

"Ah, that woman just now is from your house?"

Wei Mingxuan pointed in the direction where Meng Qianqian left and said, "She looks pretty. Send her to my carriage later."

Wei Mingxuan has been a pervert since he was young. He often took advantage of maids in the Xiangguo Mansion. When he grew up, he became even worse and specifically targeted decent women to molest.

Without waiting for Lu Yuan's answer, Wei Mingxuan turned around impatiently and looked at Lu Yuan, "Hey, did you hear what I said? Send that girl to me--"

Before he could finish his words, Lu Yuan raised his foot and kicked him away mercilessly.

He crashed heavily into the stone table in the small garden, breaking it into two pieces.

He fell to the ground again in a mess, unable to get up due to the pain.

The guards were horrified and rushed towards Lu Yuan with their swords drawn. Qingshuang flashed over and started fighting with them.

Lu Yuan walked step by step to Wei Mingxuan, looking down at him, without a trace of politeness in his eyes.

Wei Mingxuan's whole body was convulsing. He raised his head with difficulty and looked at Lu Yuan in disbelief: "You...you dare...to do...this to me..."

"Which hand? This one?"

Lu Yuan's foot slowly stepped on Wei Mingxuan's right fingers.

Wei Mingxuan suddenly panicked: "Lu Yuan, what do you want to do?"

Lu Yuan curled his lips and smiled, captivatingly: "See some blood."
