Chapter 27 My Wife 27 What to do? He still wants to interfere...
Since ancient times, it has been a place of beauties and a tomb of heroes.
It's not that he didn't know that a beauty as gentle and elegant as a clear spring could also be ruthless and decisive, nor was he completely unguarded against the minister from the Central Plains. He just didn't expect that his talent could be transformed into such a strong offensive, which hit the nail on the head and caught him off guard.
This time, the fall I suffered at Lu Huai's hands was really huge and painful.
"Lu Huai..."
Wu Heng repeatedly ground these two words with the tip of his tongue until his soft tongue was cut all over by the sharp teeth and bleeding, emitting dense and piercing pain. Then he stood up with a sneer.
In front, after Hesuler left, Qiao Qi, who wanted to comfort Wu Heng because he was afraid that the young master who had always had smooth sailing would be overwhelmed by the sudden setbacks and changes, was stopped by him without saying a word. Now he was listening carefully to the movements inside from outside, and was quite worried about Wu Heng's condition.
Wu Heng in the room still felt it was not enough, so he took out a stack of rice paper that was originally neatly stacked in the room, and wrote Lu Huai's name on it fiercely and urgently with a brush. He poked the brush tip heavily on the messy name, as if this could vent the resentment and cruelty in his heart.
She even took out the scroll that she had treasured so much and had drawn during the days when she was most obsessed with Lu Huai, and threw it fiercely on the carved pear wood table in front of her, as if she wanted to expel everything related to this person from her world.
The funny thing was that just as he was about to reach out his hand as resolutely as autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, his ink-stained fingers pulled back uncontrollably just as they were about to touch that elegant and beautiful face.
He had no choice but to stop deceiving himself and realize that he was still reluctant to destroy his own treasures.
Wu Heng suddenly laughed softly, a suppressed and self-deprecating laugh, each sound filled with deep obsession.
"Lu Huai, I respect and love you. I've suppressed all my venomous stings for you. I truly want to take you as my wife, but you've cruelly discarded me like a piece of trash."
"Then I will show you no mercy. I will turn around and make you my trophy. From now on, you will hate me completely. It would be best if you don't give me the chance to return to Kyoto."
Otherwise, when they meet again, it will be the time when he will truly fight his way to the throne among his brothers and sisters, and realize his great cause of unification step by step. By then, he will not be willing to kill Lu Huai immediately.
Wu Heng planned to capture Kyoto and demand that Emperor Yong hand him over by name, so that he could experience the pain of being betrayed by his loyal ruler and subjects. Then he would lock Lu Huai in the golden cage he had carefully forged for him, never to let him escape.
At this point, her slender legs were tied with golden chains that only he had the key to unlock, and her thin white wrists were caught by him, on which he hung bell bracelets unique to ethnic minorities.
This person can only endure his favor and resentment every day, and all the emotions on her face as beautiful as a blooming flower are given by him personally.
-------------------------------------
After sending Pei Yu back to the mansion, Lu Huai, who was reminded of the deviation of the plot line, knew that Pei Yu's trip must have failed.
He dismissed the two sisters Chunying and Xialu, and let himself immerse in the sea of consciousness in the silent and deserted study, immersed in various searches in the rapidly running data stream, and his spherical face was filled with disbelief.
0359 smiled awkwardly, drooped his little wings and pretended to pound his back, his round obsidian eyes rolled around, and he looked at the host with a flattering look.
It turned out that they had a disagreement about Lu Huai's trip to deliver the evidence.
0359 strongly opposed it, thinking that something would go wrong, but Lu Huai disagreed with it and insisted on going.
It spoke righteously, but seeing that the other person was unmoved, it changed its attack and looked at Lu Huai pitifully, trying to influence him.
"Wu Heng will definitely not escape this disaster. It will be difficult for him to become Chanyu in the future. The collapse of the plot line will increase by at least 5% by then."
"Huaihuai, the plot line of our world has deviated by 10.5%, falling from the excellent level. We can't continue to take risks. If you go, I will ignore you."
But the actor himself was as ruthless as a rock. He even made a bet with it, thinking that given the original owner's character, if he had any suspicions, Wu Heng would definitely investigate thoroughly.
Delivering evidence is consistent with Lu Huai's ability and the logic of the plot. This action is just a reasonable way to advance the plot.
Lu Huai gently pinched 0359's puffy face and said to him, "Don't worry, the plot line will only deviate slightly. People like Wu Heng are much more likely to make a quick decision and cut off their tail to survive than to act on their emotions."
"Even if a tyrant loses his arm, he won't be unable to recover. At most, he'll encounter more resistance and delay his rise to power by a year or two. The degree of collapse he'll cause won't be that great."
Sure enough, in the end, the collapse degree of only 0.2% was a slap in the face of 0359. Although it felt a little inferior and felt that it could not beat the smart Huaihuai, the result was good. Who would go against the performance?
The plot was already a bit off track, but the current situation is surprisingly well under control.
The lower the degree of collapse, the fewer points are deducted, the safer it is for them, and the higher the possibility of completing the task, so it is still quite happy.
Lu Huai also knew that 0359 was also concerned because he was furious at Chen Chensheng's explosive behavior. At this time, he just looked at him dotingly, with a soft light in his eyes like stars falling, and said to him with a smile, "It's not a big problem."
The original body's appearance is very similar to the eyebrows and eyes copied from Lu Huai in the small world, and with a sense of softness and concentration, it is exactly the same as the role he plays.
The expression similar to that of the gentle and elegant Lu Zhuangyuan immediately touched the pain point of 0359, who had been cursing when he saw Shen San kissing Lu Huai, but was trapped in the consciousness space and did not dare to disturb the host, breaking his defense.
"Huai Huai, I think you played this world very well! But that protagonist is really inhuman. He took advantage of you and ruined the plot line. If it weren't for him, the first shot of our pure love world would have been fired."
Although Lu Huai was also upset because of Chen San's behavior, he was considerate enough not to bring this emotional pressure to Xiaojiu, who was already feeling depressed.
"It's okay. People in the small world are all independent individuals. It's natural for them to have different ideas and behave differently.
Looking ahead, as long as she marries the protagonist, Chenchen Sheng, and then is used as a tool by him and the emperor, and the storyline ends quite quickly, it's actually quite quick."
0359 nodded obediently and did not pour cold water on his dear Lu Huai: It always felt that there might be some mistakes in this "king taking his minister's wife" situation, but as to where the problem was, it had not discovered yet, so it had to keep silent for the time being.
Lu Huai's pupils suddenly shrank at this moment. It turned out that someone from the outside world was visiting. He looked at 0359, and after getting confirmation, he switched out of the sea of consciousness and saw Chunying leading the yellow-clothed messenger from the palace.
The man had a fair face and no beard, with soft eyes and eyebrows. He smiled appropriately with just the right amount of joy. He was holding a heavy, solemn imperial edict embroidered with gold brocade, and was followed by a team of guards.
Such a luxurious scene made Lu Huai immediately understand the identity of this person and the purpose of their visit.
Lu Huai first politely greeted Su Ninghai, and then calmly lifted his robe and knelt down to receive the order. His words and actions made this eunuch, who had seen a lot of the world, feel very comfortable.
Therefore, when he read out the imperial edict, he did not stretch out his shrill voice and speak slowly as usual, which actually made Chunying, who was also kneeling beside him, feel that this eunuch was a good person.
Little did he know that Su Ninghai was just acting according to the situation, and Lu Huai made him feel respected today.
"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor decrees... that Imperial Academy Compiler Lu Huai marry Duke Shen's third daughter, Chen Chensheng. This is decreed."
"I obey your command." Lu Huai accepted the long-awaited imperial edict. After receiving it, he did not forget to ask Chunying to give him a few taels of silver, which earned him a more sincere smile from the other party.
Lu Huai no longer cared whether Su Ninghai appreciated it. Although he was still worried about Pei Yu's situation, he couldn't suppress his joy.
Shen San… Even though he knew he was not a woman, he was still moved when he heard the two names so closely linked in the imperial edict: he also had a wife, a person who would accompany him, Lu Huai, for the rest of his life…
So after receiving the order, he felt that he had to be fully prepared and not let Shen San feel that his intentions were not good enough.
He immediately began to prepare for the betrothal gifts and the banquet. All the staff of the Lu family were mobilized to purchase, draw up orders, calculate, and pack. They were in high spirits and each did their own job.
Although Chunying and Xia Lu had a mediocre impression of Shen San and could not say they liked this mistress, seeing that their mistress was really obsessed with him, they could only support and help him.
His father Lu You was also an open-minded man. When he heard that his son was going to get married, he did not bother him with the rumors circulating in the streets. Instead, he only asked him whether the wife he was going to marry was the one he truly loved. After receiving his sincere reply, he stroked his gray beard lovingly and supported him with all his strength.
Lu Huai's mother passed away early, and his father never remarried. Lu You even promised him that after marrying Shen San, he would take the new bride to pay homage to the mistress's tablet and tell her that the family had a new good child.
Everything went as smoothly as in a dream, but although Lu Huai was happy, he always felt bitter when he thought of Pei Yu, who also had feelings for Chen San.
He never thought that this person would actually come to him.
At this time, there were only three days left before the wedding date set by the emperor. Pei Yu brought some wine at noon, and he looked listless, not at all as energetic as before.
He told him about Hesuler's suicide, and also told him about the helplessness and frustration he felt watching Wu Heng and Qiao Qi return to Northern Xiongnu safely in the morning.
Lu Huai looked at his red eyes. As someone who wanted to accomplish something, he also felt very uncomfortable.
He gently stroked Pei Yu's broad back and said soothingly, "This is not Huaiyuan's fault. It's really unexpected that Hesuler can be so courageous and decisive."
"I didn't put enough effort into this mission. I didn't fight alongside Huaiyuan. I didn't do my job well, and I caused Huaiyuan distress. I made a big mistake."
Pei Yu was absent-minded, which was unusual for him. He seemed not to be listening carefully to what he was saying. He just looked around at the joyous decorations and fell silent.
Yan Jin, he's getting married so soon...
But he still didn't want to let him go. He suddenly remembered Cheng Ruochen's frantic look, convinced that he would regret it, and he couldn't help but have a wave of despicable, begging-like thoughts, and he also wanted to take action just like that...
After a while, the stagnant air was broken by Pei Yu embracing Lu Huai and actually holding him in his arms. The feeling of being pressed against the hot and powerful body was so strange that Lu Huai's beautiful, soft, almond-shaped eyes couldn't help but tremble.
"Yanjin, I'm so useless."
"How could this be?" He was a little sensitive to men's touch because of what happened with Shen San. Being hugged by the burly but familiar man in front of him actually felt a little numb and itchy, and the shame of being dominated briefly surged in his heart.
After Lu Huai tried hard to shake off his inappropriate fantasies, he heard his friend's self-deprecating words. Seeing that he was also being restrained and unable to move, he had no choice but to gently push against the other person's shoulder with his hand that was pulled on it, expressing his disapproval.
"Huaiyuan, you shouldn't think like that."
"But Yan Jin gave me such hard-to-find evidence."
"You clearly trust me so much, yet I still can't get anything done. If Wu Heng really has rebellious intentions, this would be like letting a tiger back into the mountains. If he's just coming after me, it wouldn't be a big deal, but I'm also afraid he'll hold a grudge against you because of the Hesuler incident."
"What's more..." His throat was dry, but he couldn't suppress his emotions and uttered a voice that was almost choked with tears. "Yan Jin is going to get married to Shen San... Even if he doesn't care about me, I will have to shoulder the responsibility of raising a family on my own in the future, and my family cannot be threatened."
"Yanjin, I didn't handle this matter well. I failed to live up to your trust. I really want to make it up to you."
"As a rough warrior, I am good at protecting others. For Yan Jin's safety, please allow me to visit you frequently at the Lu Mansion after you get married. I, Pei Yu, swear on my life that I will never let anyone in the Lu Mansion come to harm."
Lu Huai originally felt guilty and wanted to comfort him and support him, so even though he didn't know what Pei Yu wanted, he didn't act rashly.
Now that I understood what my friend wanted to do, I suddenly felt an urge to break free from his arms, but I didn't want to add fuel to the fire, so I forced myself to suppress it.
He said nothing, but his eyes were clear yet bitterness brewed in them. "Huaiyuan is truly thoughtful. Such a thoughtful gesture is truly precious. You and I are bosom friends. You are welcome to visit my house often in the future."
But I felt bitter in my heart, is Huaiyuan still so in love with Chen San...and does he know that Chen San is also a man?
Knowing that he was going to marry Shen San, she still used this as an excuse, so humble. She missed him so much, couldn't let him go... She said she would come to his house to protect him later, maybe she wanted to have more contact with his wife Lu Huai after marriage?
-----------------------
The author has something to say: Small theater:
Lu Huai: You, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, didn’t even let my wife go after you married me.
Pei Yu: I just came to join this family to drag you away, who wants this bad guy Shen San?
Shen San: All of you get out!
Cheng Ruochen: I'm not even a guard dog anymore. General, don't you disdain to be in cahoots with me?
Today is really too slow, too much work, so sleepy, I'll reply to the comments tomorrow, ladies! If nothing goes wrong, I'm getting married tomorrow! I'll try to get six fat chapters, yeah, wait for me!
I will go to the comments section tomorrow and take stock of the thoughts on the ending one by one (hehe). Regarding the ending and the attack, I have some new ideas.
If you have a favorite character, you can give him a call (would you like it individually or in slices)
