Chapter 185 I am so happy to be protected by you
Lu Sui is now the regent and the only king of a different surname in Daye.
The original 'Taifu Mansion' is now the 'Regent's Mansion'.
Pei Yunjin thought Qingxuan was going to take her to the palace. While sitting in the carriage, she adjusted her clothes with her hands and re-tied her hair with a silver hairpin. She was excited and full of anticipation.
Pei Yunzhu scolded her for being wishful thinking yesterday!
Lu Sui sent someone to pick her up today.
Pei Yunjin thought that now that she was alone and helpless, Lu Sui would pity her after all.
Until the carriage stopped.
While wondering how they arrived so quickly, she lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage.
Pei Yunjin was startled when she saw the teahouse in front of her. She hurriedly asked Qingxuan who was standing beside her: "Aren't you going to the palace? Why are you here?"
Qing Xuan glanced at her coldly without explaining: "Miss Pei, please."
Pei Yunjin didn't dare to ask any more questions and followed Qingxuan into the teahouse.
When she arrived at the door of the private room, she raised her hand to stroke her hot cheeks and followed Qingxuan in.
In the private room, next to the tea table.
The man she had been thinking about was sitting there, dressed in a black brocade robe, handsome and noble, so good-looking that people couldn't take their eyes off him.
Pei Yunjin couldn't help but say, "Lu Lang..."
Before she could finish her lingering cry, her knees went numb and she fell to her knees with a thump.
Pei Yunjin's face turned pale with pain as his knees hit the ground, leaving him completely defenseless.
Qingshu walked over and sneered.
"Miss Pei is truly audacious. You didn't even show respect to the master, and you still dare to speak nonsense here. Who is your Lu Lang? You are so delusional, like a toad dreaming of eating swan meat."
After being ridiculed by him, Pei Yunjin's face turned blue and red, and for a moment, he couldn't say a word.
At this moment, Lu Sui's calm voice came faintly.
"Miss Pei, there is something I don't understand, and I need your help."
Pei Yunjin nodded quickly: "You go ahead."
"Did you go to see Jiang Yueyao while I was in prison?"
His words made Pei Yunjin's eyes flash, but she said, "I haven't looked for her."
"Are you sure?" Lu Sui suddenly stood up and walked towards her, his voice cold and indifferent, "I'll give you one more chance. If you don't tell the truth, you should know the consequences!"
Pei Yunjin's back shivered.
She knelt on the ground, not daring to look up at him.
The sound of the man's footsteps approaching was in her ears, and she couldn't help but exert force on her hands that were supporting herself on the ground, and her fingertips turned slightly white.
She gritted her teeth and remained firm.
"Why doesn't the prince believe Jin'er? Miss Jiang has nothing to do with me, why should I go looking for her?"
As she spoke, she mustered up her courage and looked up at Lu Sui.
But when she saw the redness and swelling on his left cheek, she was so scared that she couldn't help but open her eyes wide.
"Your Majesty, you..."
Lu Sui didn't look at her again, turned and walked towards the tea table, and a cold and fierce voice came.
"Qingxuan, pull out her tongue and throw her to the City God Temple."
Pei Yunjin, who had been stubborn at first, lost all color when he heard this.
She looked at Qingxuan walking towards her in horror, unable to bear it any longer, and screamed.
"I'll tell you, I'll tell you," she kowtowed to Lu Sui, "I beg Your Highness to have mercy on me. Don't have my tongue pulled out... and don't throw me to the City God Temple. There... there... I'll die..."
She was so frightened that she burst into tears.
Lu Sui ignored him and just sat down aside.
Pei Yunjin dared not hide anything and told her about his several encounters with Jiang Yueyao.
When she said, "I saw her another time, outside the Dali Temple, the time you saw me...", Lu Sui, who had originally lowered his eyebrows, suddenly raised his eyes and shot a sharp gaze at her.
"What did you say to her?"
His eyes were so terrifying that Pei Yunjin trembled all over.
"I... I..." She didn't dare to hide it and said it all in a trembling voice, "...I saw a bundle on your desk. The bundle was untied, and the cotton coat inside was exposed..."
"I... I exaggerated the situation... and humiliated her."
"In order to make her give up on you, I..."
Pei Yunjin suddenly couldn't continue.
But just as she hesitated for a moment, someone grabbed her hair. She looked at Lu Sui who suddenly appeared, endured the huge pain on her scalp, and cried out in panic: "Your Majesty, spare me, I won't dare to do it again..."
"What did you say to her?" Lu Sui's jawline was tense. Lord Lu, who was always calm and self-controlled, could no longer hold back and wanted to kill the woman in front of him.
"I'll tell you," Pei Yunjin said, no longer daring to hesitate. "I'm the one you like, and the one you want to marry. She's just a lowly merchant girl. Why would she compare herself to me?"
Lu Sui let it go.
He stood up and walked aside to wash his hands.
The air all over his body was extremely cold.
But his voice was like the devil demanding death.
"Go!"
Qingxuan, having received the order, stepped forward and dragged Pei Yunjin out.
Pei Yunjin started to throw a tantrum.
She struggled hard and begged for mercy from Lu Sui.
"Lord Lu, please be merciful and forgive me this time. I promise I will never do it again."
Seeing that he didn't say anything.
Pei Yunjin started crying again.
"How am I inferior to that bitch Jiang Yueyao? Why can't you like me?"
Seeing that Lu Sui still didn't speak.
She cursed him like crazy.
"Lu Sui, you treacherous minister and traitor, you deceived me and ruined everything I have. Even if I become a ghost, I will never let you go..."
Qingxuan chopped down with a knife.
The man suddenly fainted.
Qingshu took the person away, closed the door, turned around and walked to Lu Sui.
Lu Sui was still washing his hands. He had always been a germaphobe and would not touch other things easily.
I couldn't help myself today...
Seeing that he had almost finished washing, Qingshu hurriedly handed him the handkerchief.
"Master, this Pei Yunjin is so abominable. How dare she talk nonsense in front of the young lady? No wonder the young lady is so angry."
Lu Sui said nothing, turned around and sat down at the tea table.
After figuring out the whole story, his depressed mood improved a little.
Qingshu poured him a cup of tea and he took it and took a sip.
Thinking of Jiang Yueyao's angry words "Let him marry Pei Yunjin" with a tense face, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
And then I thought of the cat she used as a metaphor...
The corners of Lu Sui's lips are more curved.
Um!
Isn't it like a pissed off kitten?
He looked at the rosewood box that had been placed aside and had not been given away.
Explain in green book.
"Send this to Sister Lan and ask her to give it to her."
Qingshu quickly agreed.
----
After coming out of the teahouse, Jiang Yueyao got on the Shen Mansion's carriage.
Shen Huaishan sat opposite her.
Looking at her with her head down and not saying a word, thinking about his violent behavior in beating Lu Sui just now, he thought he had scared his little daughter.
He hurriedly explained, "Dad isn't usually like this. He got mad at Lu Sui today, so his temper flared up a little bit."
Jiang Yueyao was originally in a depressed mood.
Listen to him explain carefully.
I couldn't help but look up at him.
Meeting his worried look, she quickly shook her head.
"I'm not scared, I'm just..." Her eyes reddened slightly, "I'm so happy to be protected by you like this."
"Really...really?" Shen Huaishan was suddenly at a loss.
This great general from Mobei, who had charged into the Xiongnu camp single-handedly and taken the Khan's head single-handedly, was so excited that his old face turned red because of the little girl's words.
"Oh, this is what Daddy should do for you."
"You are Daddy's youngest daughter. I will never allow anyone to treat you badly."
"Even if he is Lu Sui, that won't work."
