Chapter 22

Jiang Yukang sent Lu Yuanwai and Lu Zhenbao home, and along the way Jiang Yukang deliberately walked behind, chatting with Bai Ermei and Lu Yuanwai, but he didn't talk to Lu Zhenbao. , Jiang Yukang said to Lu Yuanwai: "Uncle Lu, it's getting late now, my nephew will go back first."

Lu Yuanwai nodded and said, "Then be careful on Yukang Road."

Jiang Yukang turned around and was about to leave, but felt that someone was pulling his cuffs. He knew in his heart that it was Lu Zhenbao, because he was still a little annoyed at Lu Zhenbao's unscrupulous words, and wanted to shake his sleeves and leave, but he couldn't bear it , only slightly sighed, and turned to look at Lu Zhenbao.

Lu Zhenbao was extremely wronged, his eyes were slightly red, and even his nose felt sour.Seeing this, Lu Yuanwai asked Second Sister Bai to go to the mansion with him first, and let the young lovers talk about themselves.

Although Jiang Yukang was angry in his heart, he still couldn't bear to see Lu Zhenbao's grievance, so he could only say softly, "Bao'er..."

Lu Zhenbao sniffled and said, "Brother Yu, are you still angry with me?"

Jiang Yukang had lost most of his anger at this time, he shook his head and said, "Bao'er, don't think too much, I'm not angry."

Lu Zhenbao didn't believe it, and said, "I know you're angry. You talked and laughed with Cui'er all the way just now, but you didn't talk to me...Brother Yu, I know it's my fault in the Song family. ..."

Jiang Yukang was embarrassed by Lu Zhenbao's humiliation and repeated flattery, and felt that he was making a fuss too much and made Lu Zhenbao sad.

Jiang Yukang liked to see Lu Zhenbao smile, that's why he disarmed and surrendered when she was sad.In the past, Jiang Yukang felt guilty for deceiving Lu Zhenbao's feelings and tormenting Lu Zhenbao's lifelong happiness. He tolerated her with the greatest heart and made her happy, hoping to alleviate the harm caused to her after the lie was exposed.But as time went on, Jiang Yukang became more and more confused about whether everything he had towards Lu Zhenbao stemmed from responsibility or sincerity.

Jiang Yukang was already half a head taller than Lu Zhenbao, and couldn't help but stretched out his right hand to touch the broken hair next to Lu Zhenbao, and said softly, "Bao'er, it's cold and dewy outside, you should go back first."

"Then tell me, are you still angry with me?"

Jiang Yukang couldn't help laughing. "No, no one will be angry with Miss Lu."

What reason does Jiang Yukang have to blame Lu Zhenbao, and what reason does Jiang Yukang have to be angry with Lu Zhenbao.She herself is the biggest lie, the biggest deception, the biggest hurt.Even if Lu Zhenbao made thousands of mistakes, Jiang Yukang's only one time was enough to make Lu Zhenbao fall into a place of eternal doom.

Song Family Room

Jiang Yukang went to his mother's room and told Mrs. Jiang the main reason for her coming to Fuzhou.

Mrs. Jiang sat on the bedside, frowning deeply, and said sadly: "I didn't expect that we would not want to set foot in the officialdom, but someone would not let you go."

Jiang Yukang was also lying on the bed, resting his head on Mrs. Jiang's lap, enjoying the rare moment of intimacy between mother and daughter. "Mom, I really want to sleep with you today."

Mrs. Jiang stroked Jiang Yukang's beautiful hair. She knew that Jiang Yukang was only in a mood for a while. Jiang Yukang had always been smart and sensible. He knew that in front of everyone, their superficial mother-child relationship must be maintained, and it was impossible to sleep in the same bed. .

"However, don't worry too much about Prince Zhaoming. After all, your father still has a place in the court. He was probably just probing that day. As long as you don't fall into the battle for the crown prince, I believe that Prince Zhaoming won't have to conflict with your father."

"Actually, today's sage is incompetent and incompetent. If it weren't for our long reign, the people might not be able to live and work in peace and contentment. Although my daughter is not a man, she is also a citizen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Why don't you want to serve the court and let the people have a good life?" Jiang Yukang thought in his heart. With great ambitions, what makes her in a dilemma is not only the aggressiveness of Prince Zhaoming, but also her loyalty to the people of the world.

"Mother, my child really doesn't understand why women can't be officials in the court. They are also the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Why should they be divided into three, six, and nine classes? Since they have a patriotic heart, why should they be blocked because of the boundaries of their status? ?”

Mrs. Jiang sighed softly. The more books Jiang Yukang read, the more knowledge he gained. It was far from what a mother like her could teach her. "Yu'er, mother knows that you have your own ideas, but women are not allowed to enter the court or be an official. It has been the practice of the past dynasties, how can it be easily changed?"

"Mother, there was Hua Mulan who served in the army in place of her father in ancient times, and now that I'm dressed as a man, why can't I make a mistake..."

"Yu'er, when did you have such an idea? Although you have been wearing men's clothing for so many years, the fact that you are a daughter will never change. We have no choice but to deceive the Lu family. Your majesty, have you committed such a heinous crime as bullying the emperor?" Mrs. Jiang did not agree with Jiang Yukang's thoughts, but deep down in her heart, she still firmly believed that one day her husband would leave the officialdom, and their daughter would be able to redress as a woman.

Jiang Yukang heard what his mother meant, and knew that what he said was too whimsical, so he changed the subject and talked about an anecdote about making friends on the road.

------Lu Mansion--------

After Lu Zhenbao returned home, he was reprimanded by Lu Yuanwai for speaking out loud in the Song family.

Lu Zhenbao had long since become immune to her own father's beard-blowing and staring temper, so she just stood and listened obediently, made promises from time to time, and then yawned pretending to be sleepy.

Lu Yuanwai felt sorry for his daughter's hard work, so he said, "Since you know your mistake, go back to your room and think about it." Then he said to the slightly reserved Bai Ermei who was sitting beside him, "Mr. You teach Bao'er more, this child is spoiled by me."

Second Sister Bai naturally agreed. "Master Lu, don't worry, Miss Lu is smart, and she will definitely learn the art of piano soon."

Lu Zhenbao returned to the room, Ruru hurriedly made up the bed and prepared to serve Lu Zhenbao to sleep.But thinking of Bai Ermei and Song Wanqing, she couldn't help but said, "Miss, I really don't understand why you agreed to let Bai Ermei stay."

Lu Zhenbao asked with some doubts: "Is Sister Bai not good? Why can't she stay?"

Ru Ru continued: "Don't you see that Miss Bai is interested in Young Master Jiang?"

Lu Zhenbao really didn't think about this. When Ruru mentioned it like this, he recalled that Bai Ermei's expression was a little strange when she mentioned Jiang Yukang, so she said nervously: "Ah! I saved her, and she still looks like this To me? What can I do?"

Ruru felt that her young lady was really innocent, so she could only say: "Miss, if you want to say that Miss Bai has regained her freedom, it should be Young Master Jiang who really owes her thanks. I'm afraid she is thinking of a promise in her heart. It's just that she has no excuses." Stay, but now stay in the name of your master, wouldn't you have more opportunities to get along with Young Master Jiang."

Second Sister Bai said a little angrily: "If she dares to have unreasonable thoughts about Brother Yu, I will drive her out of the house!"

Ru Ru ignores what Bai Ermei said, and continues to talk about Song Wanqing. "Let's ignore Miss Bai for the time being. She comes from a brothel. Even if she can marry into Jiang's family, she is only a concubine, not comparable to Miss. But Miss Song's problem is really serious."

Hearing the name Song Wanqing, Lu Zhenbao couldn't help but frowned, and said, "I can see it too, Wanqing looks in Brother Yu's direction from time to time, and it seems that she also likes Brother Yu."

"Not only that, Ms. Song is well-educated, gentle and elegant, and she is from a scholarly family. She is a close match with Young Master Jiang."

Lu Zhenbao became angrier the more he listened, and said angrily, "Ruru, what do you mean by that? Could it be that I'm not good enough for that bookworm!"

Ru Ru glanced at Lu Zhenbao who had a bad expression on his face, and knew that he had said enough tonight, so he smiled and said, "Of course they deserve it, our young lady and Young Master Jiang are a perfect match. I just want to remind Miss to be careful, lest Master Jiang will be missed by other women in the future, Miss, you will feel sad and sad."

Lu Zhenbao had no choice but to look blankly at Ruru, and secretly lamented why Jiang Yukang's peach blossoms were so rampant.
