Chapter 84 I ordered water three times last night
Lu Jingyu didn't realize his wife's momentary surprise, he was in a very good mood.
When I went to see my father, I walked with ease.
At the intersection, I saw my younger brother who was also called over by my father.
Lu Jingyu found that this younger brother was more attractive than usual.
Lu Hangzhi had a hangover and was burdened with many things on his mind, so he didn't sleep well the whole night and looked haggard.
He looked at his brother with some curiosity, "Brother, what happy thing happened to you?"
Lu Jingyu smiled and didn't explain. Instead, he asked, "Hangzhi, have you seen a sachet? The kind with bamboo leaves embroidered on it."
Lu Hangzhi's eyes narrowed and he shook his head, "I didn't see it, what's wrong?"
Lu Jingyu: "Your sister-in-law embroidered it specially for me, but I accidentally lost it. Go back and ask the people in your yard if they have seen it."
Lu Hangzhi suddenly felt that the sachet in his arms was really hot.
He laughed dryly, "Okay, I'll ask the servants later."
When the two brothers entered the house, Duke Qin first taught his second son a lesson.
Lu Hangzhi looked guilty, "Father, my eldest brother also taught me yesterday. From today on, I will study hard and will never indulge in the things in the backyard again."
Duke Qin's stern expression relaxed a little, "Hangzhi, we are doing this for your own good. You are not as good as your elder brother, and you will not have a title to inherit in the future. Only by studying hard can you earn a future."
"yes."
"Since you don't want to take a break for now, then don't take a break. But the imperial examination will be held in less than a month. During this time, you will eat and live in Beimo Academy until the exam is over!"
Lu Hang was stunned.
Later, he understood his father's painstaking efforts. He was indeed exhausted both physically and mentally by the women in the backyard.
He nodded, "Sons always listen to their fathers."
Duke Qin nodded with satisfaction, "Well, I will talk to your elder brother about some matters in the court. You go back and ask the servant to pack up your things and move to the academy today."
Lu Hangzhi had no choice but to nod, feeling bitterness spread in his heart.
It turns out that my father still values my elder brother more.
After the door was closed, Duke Qin lowered his voice and asked, "Jing Yu, who in the court is the one who is trying to harm you? Do you have any clues yet?"
Lu Jingyu shook his head.
Duke Qin: "What should I do? By the way, I have not been feeling well recently and I plan to resign from the position of Dali Temple Minister ahead of schedule. Do you think Su Guang is capable of taking on the position?"
Lu Jingyu frowned, "But Concubine Su came to see you?"
Su Guang is the cousin of Concubine Su and also a relative of Duke Qin.
But in Lu Jingyu's opinion, that person was not capable enough to be the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple.
Duke Qin: "It is true that Concubine Su came to see me. Su Guang has already been promoted to the position of Vice Minister in the Ministry of Personnel for many years."
Lu Jingyu: "It's because he is about the same age as the Minister of Personnel and lacks the ability. He knows that there is no hope of promotion in the Ministry of Personnel, so he set his sights on the Dali Temple."
Duke Qin: "Jing Yu, what you mean is..."
Lu Jingyu: "Father, the position of Dali Temple Minister is an important one. His Majesty trusted you and put you in this position. Whether it is Su Guang or someone else, this person must be someone His Majesty trusts."
Duke Qin stroked his beard, feeling flattered by his son's praise. "Indeed, Your Majesty trusts me very much. Although it is said that one should promote the virtuous without avoiding relatives, I'd better let Your Majesty decide on this matter."
Lu Jingyu nodded.
Speaking of Concubine Su, Duke Qin thought of the Shen family who were planning to marry the third prince.
Duke Qin lowered his voice, "Jing Yu, do you think the Shen family will get what they want?"
Lu Jingyu shook his head, "Father, it is better for us at the Duke's Mansion not to get involved in this matter."
After all, His Majesty is still paying attention to this matter.
Moreover, Lu Jingyu knew that His Majesty would never let anything happen to the Third Prince's wife no matter what.
Duke Qin also nodded solemnly.
While the father and son were discussing court affairs, the news that the second young master was going to move to the academy soon spread throughout the mansion.
Mrs. Feng was reluctant to let her son go. "It's freezing cold. I heard that the place in the academy is not warm either. Why do you have to go there at this time?"
Lu Hangzhi: "My father asked me to go. Don't worry, mother. I will be back in about a month."
Mrs. Feng felt sorry for her son. "Then you should bring enough cotton clothes, quilts and other things. Oh, and why don't you bring Biyue or Linlang with you as well?"
Lu Hangzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Mother, I'm going to study, so I won't take them with me. I can just take the two servants with me."
Feng was filled with emotion: "My son has grown up. Come on, Hangzhi. If you pass the imperial examination and come back, your father will definitely use you!"
When Lu Hangzhi thought of his father who was now talking about government affairs with his eldest brother, a hint of bitterness flashed through his heart.
I don’t know when he will be able to catch up with his elder brother.
As the mother and son were talking, Biyun rushed in from outside. Seeing Lu Hangzhi here, she bowed quickly.
Feng: "Biyun, why are you so reckless? What happened?"
Biyun looked at Lu Hangzhi hesitantly.
Feng: "What are you looking at Hangzhi for? In the entire Duke's Mansion, no one is as important as Hangzhi in my heart. If you have anything to say, tell me now!"
Biyun had no choice but to nod and said, "Madam, you said before that someone should keep an eye on how the young master and the eldest young lady of Songtao Pavilion get along. Just now, I heard that they consummated their marriage last night."
Mrs. Feng was surprised. "Did they consummate their marriage? Jing Yu was willing to touch Gu Qingning?"
In Feng's opinion, Jing Yu did not divorce Gu Qingning because he was too particular about morality.
Moreover, Gu Qingning was Hangzhi’s fiancée before. How could Jing Yu like her and touch her?
Feng subconsciously turned her head and looked at her own son beside her.
Lu Hangzhi's face was ashen, his mouth was tightly pursed, but it twitched from time to time.
Seeing her son like this, Feng felt upset. She glared at Biyun and said, "Did you hear wrongly? They just slept together and didn't consummate their marriage?"
Biyun stretched out her hand and raised three fingers. "They called for water three times last night. It's absolutely true!"
"Mother, I've packed my things and am going to the academy!"
Lu Hangzhi couldn't bear it any longer, he suddenly stood up and walked out.
He felt extremely sad and uncomfortable.
Gu Qingning clearly loved him so much at first, so why did she consummate her marriage with Big Brother just moments after he came back?
Can her love disappear so easily?
Lu Hangzhi was feeling uncomfortable when he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
Looking up, he saw Gu Qingning standing not far away, talking to Butler Lu.
Lu Hangzhi pinched the sachet hidden in his sleeve and immediately walked towards her with a sullen face!
