Chapter 314 Love at First Sight
"Sister Lu, have you read all these journals?"
Yun Zhao looked up at her curiously.
"That's impossible."
Lu Xinnian casually picked up another scroll. "Look, this scroll is about mechanisms, and the one I have here is about construction projects."
My dad knows so much; I haven't even scratched the surface of what he knows!
"Wow~ Uncle Lu must be really amazing, right? Can I take a look?"
She looked at Lu Xinnian with bright, hopeful eyes.
Lu Xinnian simply assumed she was just curious, which is normal for a child.
She smiled gently and even handed her the scroll she was holding: "Of course."
"Thank you, sister!"
Yun Zhao was indeed interested in these manuscripts.
Lu Yuan knows a lot of things, and the scroll in Yun Zhao's hand is about feng shui and fortune telling.
It records his interesting experiences and observations during his travels with his master when he was young.
Anyway, I'm really annoyed today, so reading these strange and interesting stories is quite nice!
Yun Zhao nestled next to Lu Xinnian and began watching with great interest.
When Xu Yiyan came over with the things, he saw his little niece and Lu Xinnian leaning against each other reading books.
They were surrounded by animals, creating a harmonious atmosphere.
His brows and eyes relaxed involuntarily.
"Third Uncle!"
Yun Zhao saw him and greeted him with a smile.
Lu Xinnian subconsciously looked over, their eyes met, and Lu Xinnian gave him a smile.
Xu Yiyan's ears turned red without her realizing it.
"I came to check on the firewood. It's hot, so don't let it burn for too long."
"The fire's out! Third Uncle, why is your face so red?"
Yun Zhao sat up and looked at him with an innocent expression.
"Huh? I, no, it's just hot... By the way, Zhao Zhao, what are you looking at here?"
Xu Yiyan quickly changed the subject.
"I'm reading Uncle Lu Yuan's notes~ There are so many interesting stories in them, like this one, 'The Prince Replaced by a Civet Cat'! It even involves secrets from the previous dynasty!"
"Shh! You can't just say that!"
Xu Yiyan was startled and quickly told his niece not to talk nonsense.
"Don't worry, Uncle. There are no outsiders here. If any outsiders were eavesdropping, Scarface would find out, right?"
Yun Zhao looked at the tiger.
"Ooh~"
The tiger nuzzled against her affectionately.
Knowing that his niece understood, Xu Yiyan didn't say anything more.
"Lord Lu's notes contain many interesting anecdotes; reading more of them will benefit you."
"Third Uncle, how did you know?"
Yun Zhao asked deliberately.
Xu Yiyan's ears, which had just recovered, turned bright red again.
"I, I..."
He hesitated for a long time, unable to say anything.
Lu Xinnian couldn't bear to watch any longer, so she gently tapped Yun Zhao's little nose.
"Stop bullying your third uncle."
"Sister Lu, you can't always side with Third Uncle!"
Yun Zhao had already figured it out.
My third uncle likes Sister Lu.
But with my third uncle's taciturn nature, it's hard to say when he'll finally break through this barrier.
Does Sister Lu know what Third Uncle is thinking?
She blinked and stared at Lu Xinnian.
"I'm not taking sides. If your third uncle bullies you, your sister will help you too!"
Lu Xinnian smiled.
"There's nothing we can do about it. Third Uncle has such a good personality, how could he possibly bully Zhao Zhao? Zhao Zhao thinks Third Uncle will definitely be a good husband in the future, and he will definitely treat my Third Aunt very well!"
As she spoke, she looked at Lu Xinnian, trying to glean something from her expression.
Unfortunately, Lu Xinnian's expression remained unchanged; she simply nodded in agreement.
"The Third Young Master is indeed a very good person."
Xu Yiyan lowered his eyes slightly, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but turn up.
Yun Zhao's gaze darted back and forth between the two.
I finally understand that they are both mild-mannered.
They have their own way of getting along, and outsiders can't rush it.
She shrugged and continued looking down at her book.
After two days of rain, the sun finally came out.
News from Guanzhou has arrived.
The Ling family was taken away by the Yuan family.
"Would the King of Yue really go so far as to expose the Yuan family's relationship with him for the sake of a deposed Marquis of Dingyuan?"
Everyone was truly baffled.
Even Yun Zhao couldn't figure it out.
She destroyed the Ghost Sect, so it was impossible for Wei Junyan to join forces with her, and the Marquis of Dingyuan was directly stripped of his title.
Even though Ling Xuerou is a reincarnated person, she was only five years old back then.
At this juncture, what useful information could she provide to the King of Yue?
Yun Zhao tried his best to recall what would happen in the next few years.
"Brother-in-law, are they up to something again? Last time they even encouraged that Guiguzi to pretend to be a doctor from Medicine King Valley. Are they planning something else this time?"
Xu Yinan was utterly fed up with the Ling family.
After hearing what he said, Yun Zhao also suspected that Ling Xue Rou was probably planning something.
Surely she wouldn't reveal Wei Jingchen's identity?
hiss!
Thinking of this, Yun Zhao looked at his father again.
He received Xun Renhao's letter last time, but he never told anyone else about its contents.
"Has my uncle written back since he left so long?"
She asked, feigning curiosity.
"Not yet, but according to the timeline, he should have arrived in the Northwest by now."
Yunxuan shook his head and didn't say anything more.
After the meal.
Yun Zhao used the pretext of giving him acupuncture to spend time alone with him.
"Father, did Uncle Xun say anything bad in his letter the other day?"
She rested her head on Yunxuan's knees and asked softly.
Yunxuan looked down at his daughter and sighed.
"Zhao Zhao is really smart; Father can't hide anything from you."
"Father, worry can harm your health. You can't keep everything bottled up inside!"
She was genuinely worried.
Yunxuan's health needs to be nurtured.
But Lingnan is by no means a place for recuperation; it is surrounded by miasma and teeming with snakes, insects, rats, and ants.
If you're not careful, the summer heat can enter your body, causing dampness and heat to stagnate internally.
This is even more detrimental to Yunxuan's recovery.
"Father just hasn't figured out how to tell your mother about what happened back then."
Yunxuan never imagined that the knot in his heart would be something he had to tell his daughter.
"Was it not an accident that our daughters were switched back then?"
Yun Zhao asked.
"right."
"Is it because of Father?"
"yes."
Yunxuan felt a pang of sadness, and stroked his daughter's head, his face full of guilt.
"Back then, your father grew up with your imperial uncle, imperial aunt, Uncle Xun, and the two young masters of the Qi family."
Although my marriage to your mother was arranged by our parents, I fell in love with her at first sight.
As he spoke, Yunxuan lowered his eyes and chuckled softly, his eyes filled with love and tenderness.
"Your father has never said this to your mother."
He added somewhat embarrassedly.
"very nice."
Yun Zhao was very happy.
Her parents were in love, which led to the birth of her and her brother.
"But your royal uncle is different. He has a woman he loves, a girl from a merchant family in the clouds."
But as you know, how could a member of the royal family marry a merchant's daughter?
Yun Zhao was stunned for a moment, then asked, "And then? What happened to the merchant's daughter?"
"I heard that the girl married someone from the Northwest, but the most important part of this..."
"It was your grandfather's disapproval of your uncle and aunt's marriage back then."
disagree?
Yun Zhao's heart sank.
Families that the emperor has always disapproved of marrying into the royal family are either those whom the emperor fears or those whom the emperor feels are not qualified.
The Qi family isn't some powerful family, so do they think Qi Ling isn't qualified?
