Chapter 52: Testing

Mrs. Lu left the palace with Gu Xizhi because Gu Xizhi said that Lu Yunzheng was waiting outside.

Gu Xizhi was in a good mood at this time. After persuading Mrs. Lu, a big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground.

Now all she has to do is wait for Mrs. Lu to persuade General Lu, and then she can go back to General Zhaoyong’s mansion with Yun Zheng.

As for how to convince General Lu, Mrs. Lu said that as long as they could successfully overthrow Aunt Zhou, this matter would naturally be a piece of cake.

At this moment, Mrs. Lu probably thought that she was completely under his control, right?

Thinking of this, Gu Xizhi raised her lips slightly.

If Yun Zheng could disobey Madam Lu once for her, he could do it a second time and a third time. She had plenty of ways to make Yun Zheng devoted to her!

Mrs. Lu had just heard Gu Xizhi talk about Lu Yunzheng's recent situation. She was filled with worry and couldn't wait to walk ahead.

But when he went out of the hall, he found it was empty. Where was Lu Yunzheng?

Mrs. Lu frowned, subconsciously thinking that she had been fooled by Gu Xizhi again.

But when she turned around to question Gu Xizhi, she saw that Gu Xizhi's eyes were slightly wide open, and she looked even more shocked than her.

"Where is Zheng'er?" Mrs. Lu asked impatiently.

At this moment, somehow, Gu Xizhi suddenly thought of the scene in the carriage just now where Lu Yunzheng stared at Shen Jiasui.

Her heart tightened and she suddenly turned her head to look at the western path not far away.

"Madam, have you seen Shen Jiasui just now?"

"Shen Jiasui?"

Madam Lu looked around, her face full of confusion, "Shen Jiasui is here today too? Wait, do you suspect Zheng'er went to see Shen Jiasui?"

Gu Xizhi's face turned slightly pale, and without answering, she started to chase in the direction Shen Jiasui left.

Seeing this, Mrs. Lu also followed. Because Gu Xizhi walked fast, she and Mother Zhao fell far behind.

It was only at this moment that Mother Zhao found an opportunity to persuade her: "Madam, do you really want to join forces with this Miss Gu?"

"I think she is too cunning and tells lies all the time. I am afraid that you will be tricked by her in the end."

These words were really unpleasant to hear, and it was obvious that Mother Zhao really meant what she said to Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu naturally understood what Mother Zhao was thinking, but she shook her head, obviously having made up her mind.

"She is just an orphan. Apart from Zheng'er's love, she has nothing. But how can a woman completely rely on a man's heart?"

"Zheng'er is my son. I know him. His feelings for Gu Xizhi are real, but who says a man can only have room for one woman in his heart?"

"The stupidest thing Gu Xizhi did was to belittle herself and follow Zheng'er away from General Dingguo's mansion."

"Mother Zhao, take a look."

Mrs. Lu pursed her lips, and Mother Zhao looked forward as she was instructed. She saw Gu Xizhi walking hurriedly, looking left and right, and she could no longer hide her anxiety.

"After all, she had worked so hard to get this man, so she was afraid of losing him. She guessed that Zheng'er might go looking for Shen Jiasui. Look how scared she was."

"A woman like this may be beautiful, and men are willing to be fooled by her, but she is far inferior to Zhou Fu and will never be able to achieve anything."

"But I have to say that she is smart and the method she came up with is not bad. Zhou Fu has been proud of herself in front of me for twenty years. This time, I will make her fall so hard that she will never get up again!"

Seeing that Mrs. Lu was so confident and confident, Mother Zhao stammered for a while and could only swallow her words of persuasion.

.......

On the other hand, Lu Yunzheng was indeed standing with Shen Jiasui at the moment.

Just now, when he quickly caught up with them, he saw from afar Shen Jiasui and Baiji walking in the back mountain.

He simply strode forward, his boots stepping on the grass, and suddenly he stepped on rotten wood, making a creaking sound.

Shen Jiasui and Bai Ji turned around at the same time when they heard the voice. The moment they saw Lu Yunzheng, Bai Ji glared at him and instantly stood in front of Shen Jiasui.

Lu Yunzheng's eyes were inquiring and were fixed on Shen Jiasui's face from beginning to end.

He saw that Shen Jiasui was stunned at first, then his expression gradually turned cold, and then he took Baiji's hand and turned away.

Lu Yunzheng's eyes flashed, and he chased after him in three or two steps.

The moment he turned his head, Shen Jiasui raised his lips coldly.

Lu Yunzheng actually followed him, so it seemed that he had indeed been having a hard time these days.

If he was still as confident as he was when he was reborn, he would not have come this time. It was obvious that he had missed good opportunities again and again and thought of this "shortcut" of hers.

After coming out of the palace just now, she was always ready. The moment she heard the sound behind her, she guessed that Lu Yunzheng was coming.

Lu Yunzheng was obviously doubting whether she was also reborn. Otherwise, with his martial arts skills and eyesight, how could he step on rotten wood if he wanted to approach her quietly?

It was obvious that he wanted to test her and see his first reaction when she was off guard!

It is a virtue to look up to your opponents. Regardless of whether Lu Yunzheng has these complicated thoughts or not, Shen Jiasui just assumes that he does.

At this time, Lu Yunzheng had already walked over quickly and blocked Shen Jiasui's way.

Baiji was like a cat with its fur standing on end, and he grabbed Shen Jiasui and held him behind him.

Lu Yunzheng didn't look at Baiji, but stared at Shen Jiasui, and said with a faint smile: "Why do you act so surprised? Aren't you here for me today?"

As he spoke, he looked Shen Jiasui up and down, "Besides, she has dressed up carefully."

Shen Jiasui was so angry that he laughed when he heard this.

"Lu Yunzheng, it seems that you are good at being a dog. How dare you show up in front of me?"

"If I were you, I would have dug a dog hole and crawled into it a long time ago, and never dared to come out to see people in my life."

"You and I have nothing to do with each other anymore. If you don't get out of the way, let's fight!"

Shen Jiasui's expression was cold and his words were sharp.

When Lu Yunzheng heard this, his face looked gloomy, but he finally felt relieved.

This is Shen Jiasui's character. Even if he can't let him go in his heart, when they meet again, he will definitely speak ill of him and curse him to his heart's content.

Moreover, he had just stepped on the rotten wood deliberately to test it, and Shen Jiasui's expression did not seem fake in his haste.

Based on his understanding of Shen Jiasui's two lives, she definitely does not have such scheming and acting skills.

Lu Yunzheng claimed that he understood Shen Jiasui.

But he didn't know that in his previous life, when he was stationed far away in the north and the Shen family was in trouble, Shen Jiasui ran around petitioning for justice, experienced the warmth and coldness of human nature, and was no longer the same person he used to be.

Seeing Lu Yunzheng standing there motionless, Shen Jiasui couldn't help but wonder: Where is Gu Xizhi? Why didn't she follow?

She had clearly received news this morning that Gu Xizhi and Lu Yunzheng went out together.

Could it be that Lu Yunzheng actually left Gu Xizhi alone to face Mrs. Lu?

But how could Lu Yunzheng bear to do that?

After all, Gu Xizhi and Madam Lu had become enemies last time in the villa, and Madam Lu would not be polite to Gu Xizhi.

Or does Gu Xizhi have a way to convince Mrs. Lu?

Shen Jiasui was just getting excited about the speculation when Lu Yunzheng suddenly spoke up, "Shen Jiasui, my mother told me that you wanted to marry me even though you were crying?"
