The sand sculpture emperor fell in love with me

Chapter 16 How to get rid of the cracks between the bricks

The wind of early autumn passed over the capital quietly, filling the end of September with a hint of coolness.

The bet between Wen Renfu and Lu Anxiang is coming to an end, and one party is still insisting on making the other angry, while the latter has completely forgotten the content of the bet, and is trying to make the other jealous and give up.

Lu Anxiang asked Cao Yunshan to cooperate with him no less than five times. Civil and military officials from all over the court looked at him with joy in their eyes, so he almost came to wish him an early son, but Wen Renfu still didn't respond.

It shouldn't be, Lu Anxiang doubted himself a little, could it be that Wen Renfu was disheartened after accepting the concubine?But that night, she was still committing a bitch, so how could she suddenly change her mind?

After the court, Lu Anxiang returned to the courtyard, just as his front foot stepped on the threshold, he heard Cao Xiaojiu's voice from afar.

"Master Lu, Master Lu!" Cao Xiaojiu panted heavily, "I have something I want to bring to the palace to give to an old acquaintance, but that old acquaintance is a girl, can I borrow a maid?"

"...No need, I have something to go to the palace, so it's fine to take the girl with me." Lu Anxiang smiled.

He keenly sensed that this was a good opportunity.

He had always wanted to bring his "sweetheart" into the palace to stimulate people, but it was not suitable to deal with such messy things in court on weekdays, and he couldn't find any suitable reason at other times, so he had to give up, but This is a natural excuse to bring something into the palace, and besides, that person is also a girl, so it is better to avoid suspicion with a female relative.

"Thank you, Master Lu," Cao Xiaojiu sighed, "I don't need to bother with this matter, but it's really inconvenient for my daughter tonight."

For the first time, she received a letter from Eunuch Jin, which was handed to her by Eunuch Jin, saying that it was ordered by the Holy Majesty. Hearing that Miss Nine's wedding was approaching recently, she specially held a banquet in the full building to entertain her.

When she saw the letter, her heart was pounding. These days, she was so focused on Lu Yinghao that she always retreated when she was about to do something. Now the emperor is going to give her a marriage?Thinking of this, she almost fainted with excitement.

In fact, Wen Renfu was just trapped in a beautiful misunderstanding and wanted to fight against his rival.

"It's okay." Lu Anxiang took the burden she handed over, smiling confidently, "It's just who is this burden handed over to?"

"Do you still remember the county magistrate's daughter Lianniang and Huaiwu lord Bai's that my daughter and Master Lu mentioned earlier?" Cao Xiaojiu explained, "We all thought that His Majesty killed Lianniang, but in fact His Majesty put her under house arrest in the palace. "

"Is that so?" Lu Anxiang was taken aback, how could he, a courtier who goes up and down every day, not know about this news.Of course, this is mostly due to the secrecy work done by Jin Gonggong and a series of people in order to survive.

"Yes, this is what the second son of the Bai family communicated with the little girl, it's not a secret." Cao Xiaojiu said, "Only at the hour of the day, eunuchs and court ladies allow outsiders to enter and leave the palace where Lianniang is under house arrest."

Lu Anxiang nodded, and listened to her continue. The second son of the Bai family is named Bai Yupan. When Cao Xiaojiu and Cao Yunshan left their hometowns, Lianniang was going to marry the eldest son Bai, and he was about to become Bai Yupan's sister-in-law. Long, something happened to Mr. Bai, and he disappeared. After a while, he happened to meet the imperial concubine in Beijing, and he was sent to the capital.

Bai Yupan has always been brooding over the death of his elder brother, and felt that he had something to do with the emperor, and felt sorry for his sister-in-law, so he followed him all the way to the capital.Now hearing that the emperor imprisoned her in the palace, she was even more anxious, so she asked around to ask someone to send something there.Naturally, they all learned about what happened after their siblings left their hometowns from Bai Yupan's intermittent letters.

Lu Anxiang also felt that this Lianniang was very pitiful, and he didn't know where he had violated the taboo of hearing people's prose, and he also had some careful thoughts, so he nodded repeatedly.

The sun gradually set in the west, and the sky gradually darkened.

Less than two quarters before you time, Lu Yinghao closed the door early and went home early, not for anything else, but to express his heart to Cao Xiaojiu.

He went to the jade shop along the way and picked up the jade hairpins that he had ordered earlier——Cao Xiaojiu always had a wooden hairpin on his head, and he was reluctant to change it if it broke.In fact, he also had some stage fright, Cao Xiaojiu was always not far or close to him, and he seemed reluctant to let go.

Lu Yinghao was thinking about it, and returned to the mansion. From a distance, he saw a carriage parked at the door. A man and a woman came out of the mansion and got into the carriage. They got very close, not knowing what they were talking about. something.

That man, Lu Yinghao, clearly recognized him as his second brother, Lu Anxiang, but that girl...

Wait, there is only one girl in the house!

Lu Yinghao took a closer look, okay, this dress, this figure, whoever it is, Cao Xiaojiu! ! !

He felt that the sky had collapsed, and in an instant, the sky and the earth turned pale, everything collapsed, and his eyes were completely black.

Why!One is his beloved younger brother, and the other is his beloved girl!Why did the two of them make a pair!Why is his life so funny!

why! ! ! ! ! !

Lu Yinghao went back to the mansion in a daze, he didn't want to meet his brother, he just hoped to wait for him to come back, the two brothers had a long talk, if Cao Xiaojiu really liked Lu Anxiang, he could only die this heart.

Lu Yinghao's mind was in a state of confusion, and he wandered around the room, but accidentally found a letter in Cao Xiaojiu's yard. The letter said that he heard that Cao Xiaojiu's good news was coming, and His Majesty specially invited her to have a meal and discuss matters.

Discuss matters!

There was a loud bang in Lu Yinghao's mind, what good thing could happen, it must be their marriage!Just now Lu Anxiang took Cao Xiaojiu into the carriage, could it be that he was going to a banquet? !

But it's strange, doesn't Wen Renfu like his younger brother?Why do you say marriage right now?Lu Yinghao stroked his chin, pondered for a while, then slapped his head suddenly, remembering that Lu Anxiang always complained to him about Wen Renfu hanging around the brothel recently, maybe he has already put it down.

He thought about it again, that would be even worse, Wen Renfu was going to give him a marriage, then after tonight, this matter would be a certainty.Once the emperor's order has been issued, it is impossible to take it back! ! !

No, no, he still has to ask clearly, even if the answer is no, it can be regarded as an explanation to himself who has been in love with each other these days!

Lu Yinghao's head was buzzing with heat, crumpled up the letter paper and threw it down, packed up his things and took a little donkey from the stable, and hurried to the place mentioned in the letter.

Lu Anxiang and Cao Yunshan didn't know anything about it, and someone misunderstood them. They took Cao Yunshan into the palace twice in a carriage, but they didn't see Wen Renfu, but met Eunuch Jin with a resentful expression, and asked about Wen Ren Fu is not in the palace.

Went to Panxiangju again?Lu Anxiang thought about it, but he didn't know what the problem was, but he made up his mind, if today's plan fails again, it's better to put these things aside for now, and bring back Wen Renfu first, anyway, the government cannot be abandoned.

When it was Youshi, the guards guarding Lianniang notified them and led them into the courtyard.

Lianniang was taken aback when she saw the person coming.

Cao Yunshan hid behind Lu An Township. Although he and Lianniang hadn't met a few times, it was because of his sister who had seen him a lot and couldn't recognize him, but he also felt that it was too embarrassing for the fellow villagers to see him in such a disguise. .

Lianniang quickly came to her senses, bowed to Lu Anxiang, and said in a soft voice, "My daughter is very grateful for the kindness of Master Lu earlier."

"It's nothing to worry about." Lu Anxiang handed the package to the guard, "This is a gift from the girl's old friend."

"Thank you, Mr. Lu." Lianniang turned her beautiful eyes and saw a small piece of clothing hiding behind him, and she smiled slightly, "Ah Jiu, why are you so recognizable after a long time?"

Cao Yunshan shrank her fingers.

Lu Anxiang's body froze.

In the blink of an eye, the two looked at each other, conveying their thoughts and expressions with their eyes.

Lu An Township: What's the situation (*゜ロ゜)ノ

Cao Yunshan: I seem to have been mistaken_(:3」∠)_

Lu Anxiang: Why, the disguise is perfect ⊙▽⊙! ! !

Cao Yunshan: It’s because it’s so perfect, Mr. Lu, you forgot that sister and I are biological siblings ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Lu Anxiang: ...

Lu Anxiang:! ! !

Lu An Township: (/>Dish<)/~┴┴

"Ah Jiu?" Lian Niang went around behind Lu Anxiang, and gently pulled Cao Yunshan's wrist, "Ah Jiu, don't you recognize Sister Lian? The one on Ah Jiu was given to you by Sister Lian."

Speaking of this, her eyes flicked to the exposed half of Cao Yunshan's wrist, and she paused.

Cao Yunshan bit her lip and smiled awkwardly, raised her foot and immediately ran behind Lu Anxiang, tugging at his cuff, and looked at him for help.

Lu Anxiang unobtrusively blocked Cao Yunshan from behind, "Of course he recognizes him, it's just that he's been caught in the wind and cold these days, and his voice is hoarse, so it's not easy to speak."

"Master Lu must take good care of her. Although Xiaojiu is not from a high family background, she is a good girl." Lianniang covered her lips with a clear expression, "Even the guards guarding the little girl are talking about it these days." Le Dao, it seems that a good thing is coming."

Lu Anxiang felt that his feet were a little unsteady, it's over, the news was crooked, not only ruined Cao Xiaojiu's reputation, but also ruined his sister-in-law.

Cao Yunshan helped him silently, and whispered, "Hold on! Master Lu!"

"By the way, Master Lu, I don't know if my daughter is overthinking something." Lianniang frowned and said cautiously, "Your Majesty came to visit my daughter recently to inquire about...about Ah Jiu. .”

"...What?" Lu Anxiang was taken aback.

Cao Yunshan also froze.

"What does Ah Jiu like to eat, what to use, what clothes to wear, what kind of sachet to wear, what is his temperament, what are his hobbies... all kinds of things, I asked about everything in detail." Lianniang bit her lip, "I don't know why Your Majesty is like this , maybe it was a whim, or maybe it was..."

"On a whim." Lu Anxiang interrupted her, his tone was never indifferent, "Miss Xiaojiu has been boarding in the prime minister's residence, and the two of them have never met."

"It's my little girl thinking too much." Lianniang's face turned pale, and she quickly apologized.

"It's getting late, Lu Mou will leave." Lu Anxiang said, pulled Cao Yunshan around and left.

Lianniang smiled and said goodbye to them, but there was an elusive deep meaning in those beautiful and soft eyes.

Along the way, Lu Anxiang kept repeating Lianniang's words in his mind.

His rationality repeated in his heart over and over again. There was no sign that Cao Xiaojiu was connected with Wen Renfu.

Is it to defend Cao Xiaojiu and his brother?Not all seem to be.

When he and Cao Yunshan returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lu Yinghao and Cao Xiaojiu were not there.

At this time, the sky was already very dark, and the clouds were piled up in his heart, disturbing him to the point of being extremely irritable.

"Master Lu! Master Lu! Something happened! Something really happened!" Cao Yunshan hurried over with a piece of letter paper before she finished changing her clothes, "I found this in the yard, it should be sister's thing."

Cao Yunshan and Cao Xiaojiu share a yard.Lu Anxiang received it, and saw that it was a letter from the palace, the letter was crumbled, some words could not be read clearly, only Wen Renfu wanted to invite her to dinner.

"Lord Lu, why does Your Majesty treat Elder Sister to dinner?" Cao Yunshan was completely panicked, "Could it be that Lianniang is not talking nonsense?"

Black and white letters, letters from the palace, unmistakable.

Cao Xiaojiu did indeed say that something happened tonight, and there was nothing wrong with it.

So there is only one possibility.

"Wen Renfu really fell in love with sister?" Cao Yunshan asked worriedly.

With a strong finger, Lu Anxiang pierced the paper and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.

"He, Hu, Nao!"

Cao Yunshan was horrified by his stern aura, and felt a gust of wind whip up an afterimage beside him, whistling past, and when he regained consciousness, he was the only one left in the yard.

"Lord Lu! Your bet! You forgot the bet!"
