Chapter 100 What did I say?
Azan was a tactful person. When he saw Lu Qianshan coming in, he quietly retreated and closed the door.
As soon as she turned around, she ran into Chang An head-on. She exclaimed and complained, "I was scared to death. What's wrong with my son-in-law?"
Chang An glanced behind him and saw no one. He said, "Don't mention it. The Marquis didn't even look at the two girls. He asked me to send them out."
After hearing this, Ah Zan glanced back at the study and said worriedly, "I think the Marquis is quite angry. Will the two of them start arguing?"
Chang An, on the other hand, looked nonchalant. A gust of cold wind blew past, making him feel a little chilled. He put his hands in his pockets and said, "Sister Azan, we don't have to worry about this. The Princess and the Marquis are husband and wife. A couple needs a lot of quarrels to show their love."
Azan felt that what Chang An said was indeed reasonable. He was vague in his words, only saying that a couple is loving only when they often have conflicts, but he didn't mention the rest. For example, if the harmony between the son-in-law and the eldest princess is short-term, it's nothing, but if it lasts for a long time, it's not normal.
The reason why the couple has always been so distant is probably because one of them doesn't love each other. However, Azan doesn't know the reason for their marriage, so he guessed that it was probably because they didn't see each other often.
When she thought of this, she was no longer prepared to stay and turned around to look at Chang An.
Seeing that she was about to leave, he raised his head and looked in the direction of the small kitchen, saying, "It's been cold these past two days. I asked the small kitchen to prepare some hot tea. Isn't the eldest princess suffering from old age? Drinking something hot won't make her feel uncomfortable. Sister Azan has been working hard by the eldest princess's side. If you want to drink, just go to the small kitchen and get it. There's plenty of it."
There was no sound of quarreling in the room until the two of them left, but Xie Zhaohe was really frightened by Lu Qianshan's move. He was already troubled by the dowry issue, and now he was so upset that he didn't want to talk.
She asked in a deep voice, "What happened to my husband?"
"How can you send someone to your husband's bed like this? Xie Zhaohe, do you really think I'm your husband?"
Lu Qianshan rarely addressed her by name. The last time was when they first met in the academy, and the other time was now. She didn't know what had happened to Lu Qianshan, but he hadn't been able to rest peacefully since returning to Beijing.
Xie Zhaohe said: "Don't you want to leave a descendant for the Lu family——"
"I want our child." Before Xie Zhaohe could finish her words, Lu Qianshan interrupted her and said, "I don't want anyone else, I only want you."
"Me?" Surprised by her husband's blunt words, Xie Zhaohe was stunned for a moment, then lowered her eyes and smiled, still saying calmly, "Did Marshal Lu forget what we said in school?"
Facing Xie Zhaohe's sudden change in addressing him, he felt very uncomfortable, and then asked almost subconsciously: "What did I say?"
When he raised his eyes, he saw Xie Zhaohe staring at him straight, with a pair of upturned phoenix eyes that carried a sense of oppression. At that moment, the same expression as the night when the Lu family was wiped out seemed to remind Lu Qianshang of their past.
After the entire Lu family was executed, Lu Qianshan was imprisoned in the Jinyiwei Prison. He didn't understand why he couldn't see his brother. The man he had admired since childhood actually chose to rebel against Prince Ning, and finally ruined the Lu family's generations of brave marquis titles.
The Jinyiwei's prison was dark and gloomy, making the people inside look like rats in the gutter. He didn't know how much time had passed, nor did he know when someone would take him out and behead him.
He heard from the jailer that there was a man named Chu Xiu in the court, whose father was also an official in the Ning Wang Mansion. He should have had the same fate as him, but the royal family took pity on talented people and castrated him, sparing the death penalty.
Lu Qianshan thought that he did not have the talent of Chu Xiu, and he was almost certain that he was doomed.
