Xu Wei listened to his student's words for a long time, then suddenly burst into tears and choked up. Luo Shenyuan, in turn, breathed a sigh of relief. Xu Wei's feelings for his old friend were too deep.
As soon as he saw the letter, he knew something was wrong. Although Zhou Shuqun's situation was irreparable, he had to come and persuade Xu Wei first. Seeing the teacher crying, he knew that he had persuaded him, and said to the servants, "Prepare some water for washing his face."
Let’s wait until Xu Wei wakes up and then discuss it carefully.
Yining got up very late the next day. She was woken up by the messenger in the middle of the night. In fact, she didn't sleep well last night and had an unusual headache, so she asked the maid to press peppermint oil on her temples to relax her.
Just when she was halfway through, a maidservant beside Lin Hairu came over to pass on a message, and Zhenzhu lifted the curtain to let her in. The maidservant bowed and said to Yining, "Third Madam, the Madam wants you to come over. She said that the man who proposed to the fifth lady has arrived!"
The girl spoke in an excited tone, "Madam, hurry up, the lady wants you to watch the fun."
The person proposing marriage to Luo Yilian has finally arrived?
Luo Yining opened her eyes and told the maid to hold off pressing them for now. She was also curious about who had proposed to Luo Yilian, having waited so long. After a moment's thought, she had the maid help her change into a pure purple silk jacket with aquarius pattern and went to Lin Hairu's place.
Many maids and servants stood with their hands hanging down in the corridor of the main house. They were all wearing silk skirts and tunics, which made them look quite impressive. The visitors must be from a noble family.
After the maid passed the message, Yi Ning lifted the curtain and walked in. Before she saw anyone, she heard a bustling noise.
Yi Ning looked up. Lin Hairu was flanked by maids and servants, presumably there to support the occasion. Sitting opposite Lin Hairu was a fair-skinned woman with a ponytail bun and elegant attire. She wore a sapphire-green jacket with gold accents and a full set of red-gold headgear. She was probably not very young, but she had a beautiful face.
When Lin Hairu saw Yining coming, she pulled her over and said to her, "Yining, this is Madam Cao from the Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion."
Madam Cao is an elder and also the wife of the marquis, so Yining naturally has to bow and greet her.
Lin Hairu then introduced her: "...This is my daughter-in-law Wei."
"That's Sixth Miss's sister-in-law," Mrs. Cao said with a smile. She looked very kind, but her eyes were beautiful and shrewd, revealing a hint of shrewdness.
This trip had other purposes, so Mrs. Cao naturally didn't care about Yining.
She smiled, wiped her lips with a handkerchief, and spoke to Lin Hairu, "Mrs. Luo Er, your sixth daughter is destined to be a noble woman. Commander Lu intends to take her as a concubine. This is a rare and happy event."
Who was Lu Jiaxue? He was the Governor-General of Xuanda, commanding a large army and ruling Xuanfu, Shanxi. He was a powerful governor, so powerful that even the Emperor was wary of him. If he wanted to take a concubine, every family would be eager to send their daughters to him.
Madam Xu thought it was a stroke of luck. How could an unfavored concubine's daughter catch Lu Jiaxue's eye?
She deliberately slowed down her voice. "So many women are vying for him, but none of them can even see him once. If she follows him, she will enjoy endless wealth and glory. Your Sixth Miss is now on the rise. Madam Luo, please think carefully about this and quickly tell your Sixth Miss! This man should be here soon, right?"
She glanced at the door a few times as she spoke. She had sent someone to pass on the message the moment she arrived, so why hadn't she arrived yet? She had only sent a message to Concubine Qiao, saying that a prominent figure had feelings for Luo Yilian, but she hadn't said who it was. Concubine Qiao had replied respectfully, waiting expectantly. Now that the moment had come, she was acting like a noble, and even taking her time.
Of course, she was also curious about how beautiful the sixth girl in this family was that the governor would take a fancy to her.
Lin Hairu nearly choked on her tea. "Mrs. Xu said it was... Lu Jiaxue, Commander Lu?"
When he led his troops to Baoding, Lin Hairu had even watched him from afar. How could such a prominent figure fall for Luo Yilian?
Originally, I asked Luo Yining to come over to watch the fun, and now it really is lively.
Lin Hairu glanced sideways at Luo Yining, who hadn't recovered from her shock for a long time. The teacup in her hand tilted. Fortunately, she regained her composure and quickly regained her composure. However, her hands were shaking.
