"His wife, Lu Qinxia, ​​is the apple of the eye of the Lu family. Now that her husband's family is in trouble, do you think the Lu family will watch her suffer without caring about her life or death?"

Zhaohe looked at the confident Xia Houlie and stopped talking.

At this moment, his heart was filled with gratitude to God, because Qingwan was not dead.

And he also knew that this time, the emperor's brother was determined to win Qingwan.

Therefore, when he learned that Qingwan was in the hands of He Lian Heng, he did not immediately think of a way to snatch her back, but chose to endure it. He already understood that the only way to completely eliminate He Lian Heng's love for Qing Wan was

Only then can he have his beloved woman forever.

"When do you plan to go to war?"

"We will set off in three days. I will order General He to be the vanguard general. He will first go to Dongmo with 300,000 cavalry. You and I will take the small road together and we will go directly to Lu's house."

He suddenly raised his lips and smiled, tapped his index finger on the table a few times, and said in a deep voice, "Perhaps, we can meet Helian Moxiao on the road."

"I want to go to Lu's house too?"

Subconsciously, Chu Xia's bright smiling face flashed through his mind, as well as holding his hand and calling sweetly: "Brother Che! Brother Che!"

Xia Houlie looked at him with raised eyebrows: "What, you don't want to go?"

He naturally knew the reason for Zhaohe's resistance, but when he thought about his thoughts about Qingwan, even though he knew that he only loved Qingwan in his heart and would never do anything beyond the rules, he still felt panicked in his heart.

After all, which man wants his beloved woman to be thought of by other men all the time?

Zhaohe didn't miss his suddenly sharp eyes, and thought of what the imperial grandmother said to him two days ago...

"Whether it's because of old grudges or ambitions, Dongmo and Beiyan will have a battle sooner or later. You also know your brother's thoughts towards Qing girl. I'm afraid this battle is inevitable. When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. Naturally, my grandmother doesn't want it.

The injured person is your imperial brother, but now, the Lu family has always remained neutral. According to the grudges of the previous generation, Lu Haiyu and Lu Haiyue were married to the two monarchs of Beiyan and Dongmo respectively. They are both from the Lu family.

It’s not good for your daughter to take sides. But in your generation, Helian Mo Xiao took Lu Qinxia, ​​the eldest granddaughter of the Lu family. In addition, the Lu family originally had a grudge against Bei Yan. Your imperial brother’s decision

Attacking Dongmo, the Lu family is very likely to fall to Dongmo's side. My child, there is no need for grandma to explain the seriousness of this. Grandma knows what you are thinking, but it is impossible for Qing girl to be with you after all. Why don't you let go

This obsession, how about accepting the girl in early summer?"

At this point, she sighed before continuing:

"I still remember when she came to the palace to visit me last year, I tentatively said that if she really wanted to marry you, I could issue a decree to marry you, but she refused, saying that she didn't want such a forced marriage. She

I want you to marry her willingly. Where can you find such a good girl who is so affectionate and sexual now? Showa, think about it carefully, grandma will not force you, I just hope you can wake up soon. The most important thing is, grandma

I don’t want you two brothers to be separated because of a woman.”

He understood what the imperial grandmother meant. She was afraid that one day, his feelings for Qingwan would arouse conflicts between him and the imperial brother. In the royal family, family ties were as thin as a feather, and she did not want to see them fighting in the same room.

.

And now, it happens to be the time when Beiyan needs the Lu family. As long as he marries Chu Xia, he can not only eliminate the emperor's brother's doubts, but also help Beiyan and fulfill the emperor's grandmother's wish. It can be said that he kills three birds with one stone.

But……

There was a hint of bitterness on the corners of his lips. Did he really want to use Chu Xia's feelings for him to achieve these goals?

Xia Houlie looked at his expression, walked down the jade steps, patted his shoulder, and said in a deep voice:

"Showa, I don't know what the emperor's grandmother said to you that day, but seeing that you have been in a trance these past few days, I am afraid that my attack on Dongmo this time has something to do with the Lu family. Brother Huang doesn't want to say anything more, just

I hope you will remember one sentence: Never feel wronged or force yourself to do something you don’t want to do at any time. Although I also hope that you will get married soon, I will never be willing to sacrifice your life’s happiness for Beiyan Jiangshan.

Yes, do you know?"

From childhood to adulthood, he has lived under the control of others, and there are many things he cannot control. He knows the pain of this, so why would he want his only brother who is close to him to suffer this kind of pain?

When Zhaohe heard this, his nose felt sore. He raised his hand and held his hand. He choked and said: "Brother Emperor..."

Xia Houlie patted the back of his hand with his backhand and said seriously:

"Needless to say, it's a good thing to go to the Lu family and win their help. If you can't win, I also have a way to deal with Dong Mo. Although I know it's difficult for you to go, escaping is not an option. The girl in Chu Xia is already very tired.

It's six years old. She has been waiting for you for so many years. Shouldn't you give her an explanation? As a man, don't be sloppy in doing things. If you like her, marry her. If you don't like her, let her give up completely and let her find a new one.

Happiness. If you continue to suffer from it, if you are afraid of hurting her and don't have the heart to say it clearly now, it will only make her suffer more in the future!"

After finishing the conversation, Showa blushed and became speechless. After being silent for a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."

*

Mrs. Lu woke up several times to find an extremely ugly man beside her, who would fill her with orange-flavored salt water as soon as she woke up.

Although she felt uncomfortable drinking at first, she had no energy. Gradually, she gained some strength and shouted angrily:

"Who are you, this ugly monster?"

Mu Qingwan heard her speak, but she didn't even raise her eyelids. She continued to eat oranges and read a book. After swallowing the oranges in her mouth, she said calmly:

"The doctor your granddaughter Lu Chuxia invited."

Mrs. Lu looked him up and down for a while as if she didn't believe it, her face became darker and darker, and she asked questions like a barrage:

"What's your name? Which medical center did you come from? Who have you treated before?"

"My name is Qiu Xin, the same Qiu Xin who split the word "sorrow" into two parts. I have never been to any medical clinic, and I have never treated anyone before."

Mu Qingwan thought for a while, suddenly became happy, and said with a smile:

"But in the past, in order to make a living, I treated a family's cat for asthma."

As she spoke, she put down the book in her hand, and then threw the leftover orange peel into the kettle on the table.

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Lu realized that the water she usually drank was boiled in this way. She was so angry that her face turned blue. She pointed at Mu Qingwan with a trembling hand and said:

"You... you go and call Chu Xia."

Mu Qingwan ignored it, got up and found a paper bag from the drawer on the side, grabbed a small handful of licorice and threw it into the kettle. Then she put the kettle on the stove outside the house and went to the wicker chair under the grape trellis outside.

He lay down and said:

"No need to shout, your Miss Chuxia has completely entrusted you to me."

Then, she thought for a while and added: "No one will come in here except me."

"This unfilial girl!" Mrs. Lu was so angry that she was dizzy, and even her usually pale face turned rosy.

Mu Qingwan covered her mouth with a smile and retorted:

"In the past, six-year-old Lu Ji went to Jiujiang to see Yuan Shu, but he brought two Jiujiang oranges from Yuan Shu to his mother. The world praised him for his filial piety, and some people wrote poems saying: Filial piety and brotherhood are all in nature, and a six-year-old child in this world has his sleeves in his hand.

She is pregnant with green oranges, and the widowed mother repays her for suckling her. Although your Miss Chuxia is not a six-year-old child, she brought two big baskets of oranges from Jiujiang. How can you say she is unfilial?"

Mrs. Lu was already angry, but when she saw this ugly monster talking to her again, she was so angry that her mouth was dry and her mouth was dry. She shouted for water. Mu Qingwan smiled, stopped talking, and stood up.

He brought the teapot over, poured a bowl for her, and put it to her mouth.

When she tasted it, it turned out to be that kind of orange peel and licorice salt water again. She immediately spit it out and shouted with a green face:

"Go get me some clean water!"

Mu Qingwan didn't try to persuade her, she just put the teapot next to the bed and walked outside and said:

"This is the only water here. If you don't want to drink it, just bear with it."

After saying that, he sat on the wicker chair again and picked up the book to read.

Mrs. Lu has enjoyed all the honors in her life, but who would not be polite or flattering to her when they see her? How have she ever been so angry? But at this moment, she is so weak and there is no maid around to serve her. She has no way to teach this hateful ugly monster a lesson.

As for scolding, it seems that he is a sharp-tongued master. In the end, he may not have been taught a lesson, but he will be angry to death first.

She couldn't bear to drink the water for a long time, but the food that was served basically had no soup, only a few vegetables and side dishes and white rice. She deliberately poured all the vegetables into her bowl and stared at Mu Qingwan across from her with pride.

, Mu Qingwan just smiled faintly and took a bowl of white rice without caring.

Mrs. Lu endured it until the evening, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. Seeing that Mu Qingwan was not in the room, she hurriedly stood up and drank two large bowls of orange water. Before she finished drinking, she heard a chuckle from the door.

With a loud sound, the bowl in her hand suddenly fell down, her face turned red and she beat the bed in anger.

The next day, the food was served as usual. This time, Mrs. Lu ate it all as usual, leaving little food for Mu Qingwan. Mu Qingwan still just smiled lightly and finished eating.

Wan dry rice.

Mrs. Lu frowned unusually when she saw him eating, and couldn't help but feel proud, thinking that she finally had a way to deal with this ugly monster.

But before she could be proud, she felt chest tightness and abdominal distension, and her head began to feel dizzy. Mu Qingwan's faint voice came from outside the door:

"If you feel uncomfortable, drink a few more bowls of orange water."

Mrs. Lu naturally ignored him, but after a while, she felt so thirsty that she finally couldn't help but pour two more bowls of tea and drank it.

At night, she only felt abdominal pain like cramping. Although she was unwilling to do so, she had to lower her face and ask Mu Qingwan to help her go to the toilet.

After a while, several large pieces of stuff as hard as stone were untied, and they were constantly expelling gas. Mrs. Lu came out and saw Mu Qingwan pinching her nose and looking at her with a half-smile. She couldn't help but feel extremely angry.

But when I lay back on the bed, I found that my chest, which had been blocked for more than ten years, suddenly felt relieved. Although I didn't say anything, I was secretly amazed in my heart.

Judging from the behavior these days, this ugly monster who calls herself Qiu Xin may have some skills, but she has always been proud and used to being flattered by others. Suddenly she met Mu Qingwan who was so indifferent to her, and she suddenly felt...

Very competitive.

As soon as she recovered, she began to talk to Mu Qingwan about the past and the present. She had been reading poetry and books since she was a child, and she had always regretted that she could not take the exams for fame just because she was a woman. Her purpose was to use her talents to impress Mu Qingwan.

Qingwan was in awe of her, but in the end, it was Mu Qingwan who left her speechless.
