Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

"Why can you only say um?"

Lu Dongqing looked at the girl who was treating his wound carefully without blinking: "I'm fine."

After an incense stick of time, Hu Muyan finally applied the medicine and bandaged the wound, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Okay." But when she took two steps back and saw the man in Feiyu suit with an embroidered spring sword on his waist, and a handkerchief embroidered with lotus flowers wrapped around his forehead with a bow tied on one side, she suddenly found it very funny and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"What's wrong?" Lu Dongqing was surprised. When he turned his head to look at the mirror beside him, his temples couldn't help but throb.

But then, Hu Muyan saw the corners of his mouth slightly raised into a beautiful arc.

This man is actually quite good-looking when he isn't so serious and cold.

She suddenly said, "I'm hungry. Are you hungry?"

Lu Dongqing was not actually hungry. He had been busy since yesterday. At 3:30 pm, Yuan Ziyong brought some dry food. He quickly ate a few cold steamed buns. His stomach was still full. He was just a little tired and wanted to have a good sleep. He nodded, "Yes, I am a little hungry."

"Then you take a rest, I'll go cook noodles."

"it is good."

When Hu Muyan came over with two bowls of cooked noodles, she saw that the man had fallen asleep on the low couch where she usually rested.

He gently put down the noodles in his hand and took a quilt to cover it gently.

The man was sleeping very soundly, which showed that he was very tired from working on his sister Wan's case in the past few days.

Sitting aside, Hu Muyan carefully looked at the man in front of her.

The sleeping man had relaxed brows, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose and thin lips, like an elegant and noble young man from aristocratic family. If he didn't usually look so cold, he would be a very gentle person.

Unfortunately, since the day the Jinyiwei was founded by the previous emperor, it has been scolded as the emperor's dogs and is feared by everyone, and yet he is already the commander of the Jinyiwei at such a young age.

That night, Lu Dongqing slept well and didn't even have a dream.

When the first ray of morning sunlight shone into the shop, Lu Dongqing opened his eyes and quickly sat up. The quilt on his body slipped off his chest, and he was shocked to realize that he had slept for a whole night in this strange place.

Lu Dongqing raised the corners of his mouth slightly and closed his eyes again. As the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he was more cautious than anyone else. No matter how tired he was, he could not fall asleep in an unfamiliar environment without any precautions.

And here he was, sleeping so soundly.

The girl in front of him was lying quietly on the table, her face facing him, her head resting on her arms, her chubby round face looking playful and cute.

Lu Dongqing stared at the sleeping girl. As the eldest granddaughter of the Prime Minister's family, Hu Muyan should have been a delicate flower raised in a greenhouse since she was a child, raised in the palm of her parents' hands and brothers. She was a model of a girl from an aristocratic family. She was excellent in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was a talented woman in the entire Shengjing City.

When the family encountered a disaster, any other girl would have cried and was at a loss, but she took on the burden of the entire Hu family, supported a large family of women, and made those who laughed at them shut up.

The years were so peaceful and quiet that he could not bear to open the door, fearing that the noise outside would wake the sleeping girl.

He stood up, picked up the quilt and gently covered the girl with it. A strand of black hair fell on her face. As if possessed by a ghost, Lu Dongqing reached out and tucked the hair behind her ear.

Hu Muyan suddenly opened her eyes.

Meeting the girl's misty obsidian eyes, Lu Dongqing's heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly turned his head away guiltily and picked up the embroidered spring knife beside him: "I, I'm leaving."

"Don't go." Hu Muyan called him.

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Hu Muyan's heart seemed to skip a beat. She coughed awkwardly and pointed at the two bowls of noodles on the table: "You were too tired to sleep yesterday. This bowl of noodles can't be eaten. I'll cook you another bowl."

Lu Dongqing turned his head in surprise. As members of the Imperial Guard, in recent years, no matter where they went, the common people were afraid of them on the surface, but they didn't know how they were cursing them behind their backs.

No one ever invited them to stay and have a bowl of noodles.

He should have left immediately, but: "Okay, okay, thank you, Miss Hu."

After a very good night's sleep, my stomach is indeed a little empty.

Hu Muyan went to the backyard and fetched a basin of water. "Commander Lu, please wash up first. I'll be right back."

Lu Dongqing nodded and watched the slender figure walk towards the backyard.

The women of the Hu family have all moved in now. When Hu Muyan went out to cook noodles yesterday, her mother saw her in the yard.

She was so anxious that she couldn't sleep well the whole night.

At this time, seeing that the door that had been closed all night was finally opened, Mrs. Hu hurried over, pulled Hu Muyan aside, and whispered to blame: "How can you, a girl, stay in the same room with a man for a whole night? Don't worry about your reputation!"

Hu Muyan knew that Lu Dongqing was skilled in martial arts and had excellent hearing, so she took her mother's hand and went to the kitchen.

After entering the kitchen, Madam Hu closed the door and said angrily, "Yan'er, have you forgotten who raided our Hu family? It was him, the Jinyiwei commander named Lu Dongqing!"

"Mother, the one who raided our Hu family was the one sitting on the dragon throne, not Commander Lu."

"I think you are out of your mind. You dare to spend a night alone with Jinyiwei."

"Commander Lu is a gentleman."

Madam Hu snorted coldly, "He is a 'gentleman' that everyone wants to kill. Haven't you heard what others say about him? They say Lu Dongqing is Yama and that the Jinyiwei are the emperor's running dogs. Yan'er, listen to your mother and stay as far away from Lu Dongqing as possible."

Hu Muyan added water to the pot: "Mother, remember when I opened this shop, I told you that Princess Heng gave me five thousand taels?"

Speaking of Princess Heng, Madam Hu's face suddenly became filled with sorrow and her eyes were red. Such a good woman, yet she died in the fight for the throne.

"She is our Hu family's great benefactor, how could I not remember her. You didn't tell me about this until a month later, and I couldn't find a good opportunity to thank her. Now..."

"Yan'er, although Princess Heng is no longer with us, the 30% interest promised to her must not be reduced and must be sent to the General's Mansion every year. No, we are talking about that Yama Lu Dongqing, don't change the subject."

Hu Muyan helped her mother sit aside while she kneaded dough and boiled water in a pot. Her movements were very familiar. "Of course, the dividends for Sister Wan will not be less. I will personally deliver them to Madam Zhu."

"When we were in the ruined temple, I put the money that my sister Wan gave me in a box and hid it at the foot of the big Buddha. When the Jinyiwei came to search, Commander Lu saw it and even took it in his hand and flipped through it. He knew exactly how much money was in the box."

Mrs. Hu was shocked: "You mean, he saw the five thousand taels at that time, but pretended not to notice it and just left with his people?"
