General Jiang thought that there was nothing else to do today, so he might as well risk his life to accompany Qilang. He was patient and went to the Pear Garden with Xiao Cunyu despite his old body.
Xiao Cunyu was so happy.
Old lady Jiang is the elder, you can’t let her pay when you go out to play, right?
When she arrived at the Liyuan Opera House, she did not book the entire theater. She just found a private seat, ordered some drinks and melon seeds, and watched the show while looking at the guests below. No one knew what was going on in her mind.
The old man was not interested in the show. The babbling was really tiring. But after watching for a while, he also discovered the trick of this garden.
There was a young man sitting at the first seat downstairs near the stage.
From a distance, the man looked familiar. The old general thought carefully for a moment before saying, "That guy down there...why does he look a bit like His Royal Highness Prince Lu?"
The current fifth prince?
But why would King Lu come to such a place?
This opera house is quite large, but it is definitely not the best in the capital. The interior is elegantly decorated, which is a little different from the opera house he imagined. At this moment, there is a man who looks not very old sitting next to His Royal Highness the Prince of Lu. He should be an actor here.
From his position, he couldn't see the King of Lu's expression.
I just feel that something is wrong.
"You've met an acquaintance. Do you want to go down and say hello?" Xiao Cunyu asked.
The old general was a little reluctant to go.
The Prince of Lu was currently arm in arm with someone, his clothes torn open in front of the people, and he looked... a bit lewd. If he went up to greet her, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
But every time he encountered it, he was afraid that others would think he was disrespectful to the royal family if he didn't go forward.
Just as the old general was hesitating, Prince Lu suddenly kicked the weak-looking man next to him aside.
"You useless piece of shit! You can't even massage my legs properly!" Prince Lu said with a sinister look, "Is it unfair to ask you to take care of me?"
"I, I dare not..." The man crawled on the ground, trembling all over, his head almost touching the ground, not even daring to raise his head.
But the King of Lu was still not satisfied. He leaned over and lifted the man's face with his hand: "Your face looks so ugly when you cry. Go on stage and sing a few lines for me. If you sing well, I will spare you today. If you sing badly, I will poison your voice."
The man clenched his fists, looking humbled to the dust.
"This is..." General Jiang was shocked.
"Oh? He must have taken a fancy to this Qingyi, right? The Prince of Lu has a thing for this kind of thing, and everyone in the world knows it." Xiao Cunyu didn't care at all. Then, thinking of something, he added, "By the way, I heard that your second grandson is going to marry the granddaughter of the Duke of Wei?"
Prince Rui and Prince Lu are brothers from the same mother, and the Duke of Wei is the maternal relative of these two princes.
General Jiang was silent for a moment. "You brought me here today just to show me the absurdity of Prince Lu and to dissuade me from marrying my grandson? Mr. Xiao Qi, your family has always been loyal to the emperor. This is not your place to get involved."
"You're really wronging me! Duke Wei's family isn't great, but I think they've raised their granddaughter well. It's fine for your family to marry her off, but what does it have to do with me?" Xiao Cunyu took a leisurely sip of tea. "I just don't think Brother Han Yi will live long. Rather than letting him perish in your family, it's better to give him to me so he can be a companion to Tie Yi."
"Nonsense! Xiao Qi, don't think that you can lie just because I'm being nice to you!" Old General Jiang was very angry.
No one would be happy to hear others say that their grandson will not live long!
