Are northerners so careless?
…
The Northerners' minds are easy to guess. They want to win the war. But now the war seems to be making no progress for a while, so they sent envoys to try other ways. Surrender is impossible, but other ways may be able to end the war. Although the Northern Kingdom has stronger military strength than the Southern Kingdom, it is obvious that the Northern Kingdom is unwilling to continue to waste its strength here.
The war between the South and the North was stopped first, and the envoys from the North were stuck outside the South and could not enter. When someone went to check and found that there was no danger, they could enter the South after completing the procedures. General Wei Cong was impatient to deal with the envoys. Now there was a military officer, and the military officer was a famous handsome man in their South. General Wei simply handed over the tedious task of welcoming the envoys to Lu Yun - I heard that the envoy brought a beautiful princess with him. Since there was a beautiful princess, it would be right to arrange a pretty boy like Lu Sanlang to go.
For several days, people often came to ask the general about the envoy. The general was annoyed and simply led his own soldiers out of the city to practice and rehearse. He didn't want to worry about these things. The general only wanted to fight. He naturally thought that since Lu Sanlang was sent by the court to join the army and he would not go to the battlefield, he should do this.
However, the arrival of the envoy was a secret at this time, and ordinary people could not get the news. The big family of Nanyang, the Fan family, was only wondering why there was no war in the past two days. They heard some rumors but did not ask. And a small noble family like the Luo family had no way to know what happened in Nanyang.
The Fan family is breaking off the engagement, and Luo Lingyu has to become a beautiful girl waiting to be married and sought after by a man again.
After returning to the Luo family in Nanyang, Luo Lingyu immediately gave gifts to everyone in the family. She brought tea, green rice balls, ice wine, etc., which are unique to Jianye, and gave some to everyone. After being away for half a year, the girl was still so sensible after returning, and it was obvious that Luo Lingyu was going to marry Sanlang of the Jianye Lu family. The people of the Luo family in Nanyang praised her constantly, and when facing Luo Lingyu, they all tried to please her.
Previously, we only knew that Fan Silang was madly in love with Luo Lingyu. That person was not normal to begin with, and no one tried to find out the reason for his love.
Now even Lu Saburo wants to marry Luo Lingyu...
When the girls from the Luo family came to see Luo Lingyu, their tone was more or less sour. They were also very embarrassed because when Lu Sanlang came to their house, he was so handsome and they also wanted to marry him. Because of this desire to marry, they hid behind the screen, and they didn't know how much Lu Sanlang laughed at them in his heart. The girls from the Luo family were extremely jealous and said half-truthfully-
"Who knows what you have done to seduce people again. Is Lu Sanlang stupid? He will fall for your tricks?"
"You are marrying someone of higher status, so you must be respectful. Sister, can you tell me how you tried to please him?"
"Are you really going to be married to me, not just a concubine? But sister, even if Lu Sanlang marries you, you can't control him if he wants to take a concubine in the future, right? Hey, who made our family so much worse than his? You should be thankful that he is willing to marry you."
The maid Lingyu came from the Lu family in Jianye, and she was furious when she heard this. Luo Lingyu was a guest in the Lu family, and there were no girls in the Lu family. Usually, whoever came to live in the family was a cousin, so Luo Lingyu was treated quite well in the Lu family. However, there were many girls in the Luo family in Nanyang, and they had known Luo Lingyu for many years and knew her background, so it was not pleasant to talk to them one by one.
Lingyu was very angry: her cousin hadn't even married yet, and they were saying that Sanlang was going to take a concubine. It was really disgusting.
The maids were all furious, but Luo Lingyu was very thick-skinned. She would use different methods to deal with these girls who knew her well and to deal with Jianye's cousins. She chuckled and asked the maid to open the big box full of things. Luo Lingyu twisted her waist slightly, stood up and led the girls to appreciate the things she brought. Silk, satin, gold, silver and jade, rhinoceros horn and black gold, and mountains of gold powder. When they opened the box, they were full of dazzling things... The noble women who were used to seeing good things covered their mouths and cried out softly.
Luo Lingyu stroked her cheek and smiled, her cheeks were like blooming flowers, bright and clear.
The girl said in a sweet voice: "These were all given to me by Brother Xuechen."
"He sent me a lot of his account books. There were so many of them that I couldn't finish reading them all. I had to stay up all night. He was really annoying."
"I came to Nanyang and originally wanted the King of Hengyang to take me there, but Brother Xuechen insisted that I ride in his car. I said I didn't want to, and he got mad at me. Oh, Brother Xuechen really has a childish temper."
The girls gasped: ...What? Even the King of Hengyang is rushing to give her away? Why is Luo Lingyu so charming? Can't men see her true nature?
Luo Lingyu boasted to others in a low voice. Her calm and nonchalant manner, while always emphasizing her initiative, left the girls of the Luo family speechless. This girl didn't care what they said. The Luo family was not powerful enough. Seeing Luo Lingyu showing off how much Lu Yun loved and admired her, the girls of the Luo family couldn't stand it and left in anger.
The maid Lingyu was amazed: "This girl is so naughty, she can be so teasing."
…
But Lu Yun hadn't come to see Luo Lingyu for a long time, and the girls in the Luo family were whispering whether Lu Sanlang had changed his mind and didn't want Luo Lingyu anymore. Luo Lingyu lowered her chin and naturally didn't take their sour words to heart. But Lu Yun never came, which gradually made her uneasy. It was obviously him who was the villain that night, and she just laughed behind his back. Lu Yun wouldn't stop coming to see her just because she laughed at him, right?
She was still waiting for him to show his goodwill so that the girls in the Luo family could see it clearly.
He never comes, who can she show off to?
Besides, she was afraid that he would regret not marrying her... Luo Lingyu felt wronged. She was still worried whether he would die. She came to Nanyang to help him, but he ignored her. And she didn't do anything. She just wasn't pregnant. How could she be blamed? It was his own fault.
He was so angry that he turned his anger towards her.
Luo Lingyu was crouching at home, waiting anxiously for Lu Yun to come find her, and the longer she waited, the more uncomfortable she felt. The Luo family was also a little scared of waiting, they didn't know that Lu Yun was not in Nanyang at the moment, and they didn't know that Lu Yun had left Nanyang to meet the so-called envoy. They only knew that the Fan family wanted to cancel the engagement, but Lu Sanlang didn't care about Luo Lingyu.
Mrs. Luo came to test the waters and asked whether there was any misunderstanding between Luo Lingyu and Lu Sanlang.
