Chapter 469: A Hero Saves a Beauty
Qiao Wanyan said: "Lu Jinye."
Lu Jinye looked at her.
"Go to the south of the city. I want to eat a bowl of plain noodles. Go buy it for me."
Lu Jinye was stunned for a moment when he heard this, thinking that he might have heard it wrong.
Is she getting herself away?
Jiang Qiyun snorted, "Your master asked you to go, but you still don't go? Sister Wanyan, I think such a disobedient person should be severely beaten and taught a lesson. No! He should be driven away directly. Such a disobedient person should not be kept around!"
Jiang Qiyun came up with a 'good idea'.
Lu Jinye was a happy little puppy yesterday, but he is not happy today.
Jiang Qiyun looked at Lu Jinye leaving triumphantly, “Sister Wanyan, I did as you said, and I did see Shen Lingyi. She looked very angry.”
Qiao Wanyan: "Of course she's angry, because she likes you, and you're only making her jealous by doing this."
Jiang Qiyun knew that Shen Lingyi liked him, and the last time she and Madam Shen came, they also meant to talk about marriage openly and secretly.
“Why are we doing this?”
Qiao Wanyan smiled and said, "Because we are doing something bad. You should have guessed it now. Do you want to stop me?"
Jiang Qiyun said: "Why do you want to stop me? I am very happy that Sister Wanyan can let me participate in this. You treat me as your own, right? I know that I am different from others."
Qiao Wanyan paused, then nodded, "You are very different."
Jiang Qiyun was very happy.
A very different kind of stupidity.
"Let's go back after dinner."
Jiang Qiyun smiled brightly, "Okay!"
Shen Lingyi was furious in the mansion, smashing everything in the house and planning how to kill Qiao Yihuan.
On the other side, Qiao Yihuan sneezed several times in Mingxiang Pavilion, and he didn't even realize that his presence made someone very angry.
A post from Qiao Wanyan made Qiao Yihuan have an enemy who wanted to kill her as soon as possible.
When the Lu family's parents arrived, they seemed to have never expected that the young woman they had rescued before would become their daughter-in-law in the future.
Having lived in the village all his life, even when he came to the capital, he only sold wild products from the mountains, and was even afraid to go around for longer after selling his products.
Now, she has been led by Lu Gousheng to the mansion of the head of a prominent and noble family, and is going to become a relative of such a family. Even this marriage was arranged by the emperor.
The Lu couple were beaming with joy. When they came out of the village early this morning, they were surrounded by the villagers and walked out with their heads held high.
Who in the village has married a daughter of a rich family? Who in the village has a marriage granted by the emperor?
When Father Lu saw Minister Qiao coming, he immediately stood up, knelt down and kowtowed, calling him "Sir".
But he was supported by Lu Gousheng, who also supported his mother at the same time.
Minister Qiao seemed not to notice and did not care much. "Thank you for coming from afar. I am busy with my work, so let's get straight to the point."
Father Lu nodded repeatedly, "We will do whatever you say, sir! We are poor and don't have much good stuff, but we have brought the most valuable things in our home to marry your daughter."
Minister Qiao said, "Money is something outside of one's body. Our Qiao family is a family of scholars and naturally we don't care about those things. Our Qiao family teaches children to be self-reliant. Although my daughter is a little reckless, she is also capable. So after marriage, the two young people will work together, and their future will definitely be full of hope and infinite bright future."
Lu Gousheng: "Be self-reliant?"
Minister Qiao stood up without changing his expression. "I have some important matters to attend to, so I will not accompany you any longer. Manager Chen will discuss the following matters with you two. His opinion is my opinion, so you two can rest assured."
He left after saying this.
Lu Gousheng wanted to step forward to stop them, but was pulled back by his father and mother.
"This is an important person, don't be so rash and talk nonsense! It's already great to be able to get such a marriage, don't be silly!"
Lu Gousheng frowned and muttered, "I am the son-in-law appointed by the emperor. What does he mean by that? He will just ignore me after marrying off my daughter?"
Manager Chen heard it but pretended not to. As the manager of the Qiao family, he naturally arranged the wedding process and treated the three people to dinner before leaving.
People outside were laughing at the Qiao family, but the Qiao family handled the marriage granted by the emperor very well, and no one could find any evidence of them disrespecting the emperor's majesty.
There was no unhappiness, no reluctance, just obedience to the emperor's will.
Lu's father and mother went back to the village. After Lu Gousheng saw them off at the palace gate, he met Chu Lu on his way back.
"Do you know who visited Miss Qiao today?"
Lu Gousheng asked, "Who is it?"
"The young marquis of Jing'an Marquis's Mansion." Chu Lu said, "The young marquis likes her very much. This is known to the whole capital. If you don't believe it, you can go and ask around."
Lu Gousheng had heard about it more or less, but thinking about the marriage arranged by the emperor, it was impossible for those young masters to truly be devoted to her and always be obsessed with her.
What's more, he is such a fickle person who will do anything to achieve his goals.
Chu Lu: "My master has heard the news that the young marquis might try to snatch the bride. If the young marquis snatches the bride, the emperor will turn a blind eye as long as Jing'an Marquis is here. By then, you will not be able to marry the head of a noble family."
Lu Gousheng's face changed and his brows furrowed.
"Today, the young marquis brought rouge and powder to see Miss Qiao to discuss the matter of snatching the bride. If you don't believe it, maybe you can go find Qiao Yihuan and ask her. Her hesitancy will surely prove that this matter is true."
Lu Gousheng was suspicious in his heart, but he said, "Impossible! This is a marriage granted by the Emperor. The Marquis of Jing'an would not be so bold."
Chu Lu: "Really? The young marquis was raised by the emperor, and the emperor is very indulgent towards him. Compared to you, why would the emperor let the young marquis pay any price for you? If the matter gets out of hand, maybe he will just go along with it."
Lu Gousheng’s brows furrowed even more, but Chu Lu stopped talking and turned away.
On the second day, Lu Gousheng went to the Shangshu Mansion to find Qiao Yihuan to go to the river in the north of the city to appreciate the lotus flowers.
Qiao family, let the people go.
Qiao Yihuan was a little bit unbelieving, and thought that Lu Gousheng was the one who was most likely to cause trouble, so maybe he let her go out because he was afraid that he would cause trouble.
But no matter what, being able to go out is a good thing!
She went to the Situ family and asked them to tell Concubine Shu that Yanran was killed by Qiao Wanyan.
Lu Gousheng had neither a horse nor a carriage. Seeing Qiao Yihuan standing at the door with a worried look on his face, what Chu Lu said to him yesterday made him even more suspicious.
He grabbed her wrist and walked away. Qiao Yihuan tried to shake him off, but she didn't have enough strength to break free.
"Let her go!" a scolding voice rang out.
