The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!

Chapter 257: The engagement hasn't been made yet, so there's still a chance.

"Young Master, let's go back. You have been waiting at this intersection for several days. Who are you waiting for?"

A young servant in blue clothes holding an umbrella stood beside a young man with a graceful temperament and advised in a low voice.

The young man glanced sideways and saw that it was Xie Yi.

Xie Yi stood at the intersection of the only road to the suburbs of Beijing, calm and silent.

He is waiting for someone, a very important person.

"If you are tired, go to the carriage and rest for a while." Xie Yi said gently to his servant.

The book boy shook his head, "I'm not tired, I just feel sorry for the young master."

"Otherwise, young master, tell me who you are waiting for and I will help you. You can go and have a rest for a while."

Xie Yi shook his head and rejected the boy's suggestion: "No need, I want to wait in person."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade the young master, the servant boy stubbornly stood by with an umbrella.

After an unknown amount of time, the boy felt the umbrella in his hand became much lighter.

He looked carefully and saw that his young master was holding the umbrella handle for him.

"Let me hold on for a while." Xie Yi said softly.

The book boy hurriedly said: "How can you ask the young master to hold an umbrella for me?"

Xie Yi smiled gently: "It's okay, I'll hold on for a while."

The book boy's nose felt sore, his little master was the best little master in the world!

The rain did not let up and continued unabated.

Coupled with the winter wind, the book boy felt a little cold and pulled his clothes closer.

But Xie Yi's graceful demeanor remained the same, standing tall as a bamboo in the cold wind and drizzle.

The book boy couldn't help it and said to Xie Yi, "Young Master, let me hold it."

Xie Yi glanced at him and handed him the umbrella handle.

Looking at the people passing by on the road, Xie Yi felt unsure.

He waited for several days, not knowing whether he would be able to get it.

The servant boy also felt confused when he saw his young master.

The young master didn't know who he was waiting for, but he didn't want to use anyone from the mansion, nor did he want to be too far away.

He hired a carriage and brought him alone.

Xie Yi didn't know what the servant was thinking. He vaguely saw a group of people riding fast horses coming towards him.

He didn't care about anything and walked quickly towards the group of people.

The servant boy was unable to react and hurriedly followed.

As Xie Yi got closer, he discovered that these were indeed soldiers from the Huben Camp!

He was secretly excited and shouted, "General Zhaowu, General Zhaowu!"

Lu Qingxiao now holds several official positions, including the commander of the capital garrison, the general of the Tiger Camp Zhaowu...

It was not wrong for Xie Yi to call him that.

Wu Dongshan heard it immediately and looked at Lu Qingxiao.

Lu Qingxiao recognized Xie Yi and stopped the team.

He rode forward, as stern as ever: "Thank you, editor. What's the matter?"

Xie Yi edited books for Emperor Rong'an and was appointed as an editor in the Hanlin Academy as an exception.

Xie Yi looked up at Lu Qingxiao, frowning, "General, please spare me a moment to talk."

Wu Dongshan said as soon as he heard it: "The general is in a hurry to return to the palace to report, so he doesn't have time to talk to you."

Wu Dongshan only heard Lu Qingxiao calling him editor, and didn't know that Xie Yi was the son of Prime Minister Xie, so he was obviously not very polite.

Lu Qingxiao did not move, he sat on his horse and looked at Xie Yi: "Just say it here."

Xie Yi frowned, "This is an urgent matter, and it is related to someone the general is concerned about. Please move on."

The book boy immediately spoke up for Xie Yi and said quickly, "My son is so noble and has been waiting here for several days."

"Why won't the great general even give me a moment to talk? Does he look down on our Prime Minister Xie's Mansion?"

Xie Yi signaled the servant to shut up, but the servant was unwilling to give in and wanted to argue a few more words, but Xie Yi raised his hand to stop him.

"I don't mean to use my power to bully others, but..."

Lu Qingxiao turned over and got off the horse, then walked a few steps to the side.

He glanced at the stunned Xie Yi and asked, "Why aren't you coming over yet?"

Xie Yi hurriedly followed him, and the servant boy also wanted to follow, but Xie Yi stopped him and said, "Just wait here for me."

The two of them walked a little further into the woods nearby, making sure no one around could hear their conversation.

Lu Qingxiao looked at Xie Yi, "What's the matter?"

Xie Yi frowned, took a deep breath and said, "You, you have to send someone to protect the Sixth Miss."

Lu Qingxiao frowned when he heard this, his eyes were stern: "What do you mean?"

Xie Yi just insisted: "Pay more attention to the safety of the Sixth Miss."

"Since you are her sweetheart, you must protect her."

The eldest princess sent someone to match horoscopes, and the news that Lu Qingxiao was about to marry the Duke of Ying had spread throughout the capital.

Xie Yi's second brother told him that if he liked her, he should go for it.

Anyway, Lu Qingxiao hasn't proposed yet, so there's still a chance.

Xie Yi tried her best. She didn't like him and she had someone she liked.

But when he overheard that his father was going to send someone to kill his sweetheart, the little fairy, he was extremely upset.

He couldn't just sit there and do nothing, nor could he disobey his father.

So he could only come to remind Lu Qingxiao.

He has always envied Lu Qingxiao, who is both civil and military, and is an admirable hero.

It’s great that he and the Sixth Miss can get married...

Xie Yi thought, if he couldn't protect the Sixth Miss.

Lu Qingxiao can, he is good at martial arts and has friendship with the Sixth Miss.

All I can do is remind Lu Qingxiao to protect Sixth Miss well.

Lu Qingxiao is a very perceptive person.

He and Xie Yi had some interactions before, but they were not familiar with each other.

Xie Yi suddenly came to remind him today, he must have known something.

Lu Qingxiao nodded and agreed to Xie Yi's request seriously: "I understand."

"I will protect her."

Seeing that Lu Qingxiao's expression did not seem fake, Xie Yi forced a smile, then turned around and staggered away.

Lu Qingxiao suddenly stopped Xie Yi and asked in a low voice: "Why did you come to tell me?"

Xie Yi paused slightly and straightened his back.

Lu Qingxiao asked again: "Won't you regret it?"

Xie Yi shook his head slowly: "No."

He knew that his father had things he had to do, and as a son, he could not disobey him.

But he couldn't just stand by and watch the Sixth Miss get into danger.

After hearing this, Lu Qingxiao raised his hand and saluted Xie Yi: "I thank you on her behalf."

Xie Yi turned around abruptly, and seeing Lu Qingxiao's actions, he waved his hands in panic: "No, no need."

Lu Qingxiao didn't care about that. He felt around his waist and found a small jade pendant about the length of his little finger and threw it over.

"Take this. If you encounter any emergency, you can come to the Jingji Garrison, the Huben Camp, or the Yulin Guard to find me."

Xie Yi caught the small jade pendant thrown by Lu Qingxiao in a daze.

Lu Qingxiao glanced at him and unconsciously used the tone of an elder brother to the Lu brothers: "What are you standing there for?"

"Hurry back to the carriage."

Xie Yi quickly came back to his senses and responded twice, but Lu Qingxiao had already walked out of the woods in three or two steps.

When the servant saw Lu Qingxiao coming out and his young master was still inside, he ran in hurriedly.

But he saw the young master was holding something in his hand and was in a daze. He hurried forward to hold an umbrella: "Young master! Are you okay?"

Xie Yi shook his head, watched Lu Qingxiao and the others leave, then looked down at the jade pendant in his hand and laughed.

Lu Qingxiao doesn't seem to be as cold as the rumors say.
