Chapter 4: Stopping the Road to Express Love

In the carriage, Liu Yan whispered, "The eldest master is so scary."

Madam Pang glared at her and said, "What nonsense! The eldest master is so majestic."

Although she was afraid of the eldest son in her heart, she couldn't say that.

The girl has always been timid. Tomorrow she is going to marry the eldest son. How can she face her husband with fear?

"Miss, the eldest master is a hero. Without some power, how can he achieve merit on the battlefield? Don't be afraid, young lady."

Yuan Wanru lazily leaned against the car wall and said sincerely: "He is quite scary, but I don't want to fight with him. We just need to be reasonable in everything. There is no need to be afraid of him."

Nanny Pang didn't know whether she should feel relieved.

fight?

If the girl had such thoughts, the eldest master could pin her down with just a wave of his hand.

It is hot in the summer, and most people go out in the evening.

The streets are bustling with traffic and people, and it is very lively.

Yuan Wanru couldn't resist the temptation and quietly opened the curtain to look outside. Madam Pang frowned and wanted to stop her, but Yuan Wanru said coquettishly, "Madam, I finally came out, please don't stop me."

She took Madam Pang's hand and shook it gently, her voice was so tender and soft that Madam Pang's heart was almost sweet as honey, so how could she bear to refuse?

"Just watch for a while."

"Mammy, you are so kind."

Yuan Wanru didn't know that her voice was heard by Lu Jiangnian.

Soft and cute, the voice is sweet and crisp.

The evening breeze blew, and every word she said, carrying the remaining warmth of summer, gently penetrated into his ears, just like she had spoken to him in the yard today.

This woman, can she please speak properly? This voice, this tone...what is she like?

Lu Jiangnian unconsciously tightened the reins.

Yuan Wanru had no idea that he had so many thoughts. She had already been attracted by the hustle and bustle on the street.

It is a prosperous city with crowds of people, colorful flags waving, aromas wafting from restaurants and teahouses, and various street vendors hawking their wares.

It was obviously different from the modern world, which made her feel a little curious and a little resistant, and an indescribable melancholy spread in her heart.

"Lu Jiangnian, stop."

Suddenly, a arrogant female voice sounded.

Then the carriage stopped.

I only heard a woman outside talking: "Lu Jiangnian, are you really going to get married tomorrow?"

The tone was lingering and full of sadness and frustration, and Yuan Wanru could clearly feel it even through the car curtains.

"yes."

Being concise and to the point is Lu Jiangnian's usual style.

"I won't."

"How can you marry someone else? Everyone knows that I have been waiting..."

The woman was very excited, but Lu Jiangnian remained cold and stern: "Princess, please be careful with your words and don't ruin my reputation."

“Please move aside.”

The word "Princess" also revealed the identity of the visitor.

"Unless you promise me that the wedding will be cancelled tomorrow, I will never let you go."

The person outside should be the only legitimate daughter of King Qin, Princess Le'an Murong Ling.

The Prince of Qin is the younger brother of the current emperor. He does not attend court and does not hold power. He is devoted to elegance and is particularly good at calligraphy.

Precisely because he was so tactful, the emperor had always favored him for so many years, and even his legitimate daughter Murong Ling was favored.

It's no secret that Murong Ling likes Lu Jiangnian.

Four years ago, Murong Ling had declared that she would not marry anyone other than Lu Jiangnian.

If it were an ordinary family, I'm afraid the emperor would have already issued an imperial decree to grant the marriage and fulfill Murong Ling's wish.

But Lu Song is the emperor's trusted general, Lu Jiangnian is the prince's companion and has a very good relationship with the prince, and he himself is even more outstanding.

The emperor loves talented people and cannot bear to force Lu Jiangnian.

Faced with Murong Ling's infatuation and pleading, the emperor made clear his attitude that the friendship between Qin and Jin was a friendship between two families and that only mutual affection could lead to a beautiful story.

The general idea is, I don’t care anymore, you guys deal with it yourselves.

Murong Ling has wasted all her time for Lu Jiangnian and is now eighteen years old.

However, is there a scene in the book where Princess Le'an blocks the road?

She wasn't quite sure.

Before the heroine appeared, the story about Yuan Wanru and Lu Jiangnian was written very roughly.

Princess Le'an was still talking outside. Yuan Wanru was curious and quietly lifted the curtain to look outside.

No wonder Lu Jiangnian stopped.

It turned out that there was a luxurious carriage parked sideways in the middle of the road, blocking their way.

A woman is wearing a gorgeous vermilion dress, the gold thread on the hem of the dress glittering in the setting sun. She is wearing a jeweled gold hairpin on her head, and her posture is dignified, noble and beautiful.

At this moment, her almond-shaped eyes were filled with crystal tears, revealing a sadness and despair that was hard to ignore.

Yuan Wanru thought that her movements were so gentle that others would not notice them.

Unexpectedly, Lu Jiangnian seemed to have eyes on his back and actually turned around to look at her. He first glanced at her meaningfully, and then a sneer appeared at the corner of his lips.

Yuan Wanru's body stiffened and she felt something was wrong. She quickly lowered the curtain and sat up straight.

After a brief silence, the curtain was opened and Lu Jiangnian's pleasant voice came: "Come down."

Yuan Wanru looked left and right but didn't look at him, pretending to be deaf and dumb.

She thought he would give up when he saw the difficulty, but unfortunately, she still didn't know Lu Jiangnian well enough.

"Ah, what are you doing!"

He stretched out his arms and simply picked her up by the waist.

The man's arms had tight muscles and great strength. He held her with one hand, as if he was holding a chicken.

By the time she reacted, she was already in the air.

Yuan Wanru felt a little scared and reflexively reached out and hugged his neck tightly.

Lu Jiangnian didn't expect her to react like this.

When she hugged him like this, she completely pressed herself against him.

The softness of her chest pressed against his firm chest, and Lu Jiangnian could clearly feel that her heart was beating right in his heart, thump, thump, thump, knocking on his heart, making him a little upset.

"Let go."

"I don't want it."

Yuan Wanru stared at him angrily, looking unconvinced.

Why? If he wants to hug me, he can hug me. If he says to let go, I can let go.

She opened her eyes wide and frowned, obviously unhappy, straightforward and honest, like a child.

The eyes beneath the beautiful eyebrows are dark and shiny, as if there are thousands of stars hidden in them.

Lu Jiangnian looked at her calmly, but beneath the calmness, there was a turbulent undercurrent, carrying an inexplicable danger.

Through the thin clothes, he clearly realized that the little girl who lived in his home like an invisible person had grown up.

Yuan Wanru felt that Lu Jiangnian's eyes were a little fierce, and her hands loosened unconsciously, wanting to get off him.

Unexpectedly, there was a gust of wind behind them, and then Lu Jiangnian's expression changed. He hugged her tightly and took a few steps back.

"Lu Jiangnian, let her go!"

"I won't let you hug her!"

Yuan Wanru landed on the ground again and looked back, only to find that the unruly princess was actually waving a whip and trying to hit her!
