Chapter 31 Why is Sun Ke here again?

Liu Yiyi was so happy that she stood up to get pen and paper.

The housekeeper of the Sun Mansion said: "Master Marquis, you must not divorce your wife. When I went to inquire about the news, I saw that your Majesty and the Queen had given Lu Yuan a lot of jewelry, silk and satin jewelry.

Your Majesty and Your Majesty praised our wife for her good teaching. We also heard that Duke Meng Guo and Marquis Chengen also went to Luyuan early in the morning to apologize to our wife.

In addition, Prince Chu even ordered someone to carry a box of coral pearls to the Lu Garden. Yesterday, Prince Chu even entered the palace to intercede for our wife."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi clenched the handkerchief in her hand.

When Sun Ke heard this, he said: "I didn't expect Lu Wanzhi to have such ability. She could be praised by Duke Meng, Marquis Chengen, and Prince Chu. It seems that she is really capable, and she will also be worthy of me in the officialdom in the future."

The great use is that we can’t divorce her for the time being.”

Liu Yiyi lowered her eyes, feeling secretly anxious, but she also knew that she could only endure it at the moment.

Sun Ke said to the steward again: "Prepare the carriage and go to Lu Garden."



In the Lu Garden.

Lu Wanzhi did not go to class at Qinglan Academy today because all the students were drunk yesterday.

Although they drank at noon yesterday, they drank a lot, and I was afraid that they would not be able to wake up.

Secondly, Meng Ao and Gu Qingchi had not returned yet, so they thought of letting the students rest for half a day and start class again in the afternoon.

This morning, batch after batch of rewards came to the Lu Garden. Even Duke Meng and Lord Gu personally escorted Gu Qingchi and Meng Ao to the door to apologize.

Meng Ao and Gu Qingchi saw that they had been punished at home.

Duke Meng Guo said to Lu Wanzhi: "Niece, this time it's really my Meng Ao who has failed you and Miss Lu San. These are my Meng family's apology to Miss Lu San."

Lu Wanzhi said respectfully in front of Duke Meng: "You are so polite, Duke Meng. No one can make mistakes without being a sage. It seems that I, the teacher, did not teach Master Ling well. But don't worry, I will definitely treat him more in the future."

guide."

Lu Wanzhi glanced at Meng Ao's ears and felt that most of them were swollen. It seemed that the Crown Princess was indeed merciless yesterday.

Meng Guogong smiled at Lu Wanzhi and said, "I'll leave it to my niece Xian from now on."

Lord Gu said to Lu Wanzhi: "Miss Lu, I wonder where Heng'er is? I want to see Heng'er."

Lu Wanzhi took Lord Gu to Zhao Heng's courtyard.

Lord Gu said to Lu Wanzhi: "Miss Lu, I heard from the young man in Qingchi that my Qingchi is interested in your maid?"

Lu Wanzhi said respectfully: "Master Marquis, it was I who taught this slave how to do nothing. In the future, I will ask my slave to stay away from Second Young Master Gu."

"No, no, no." Lord Gu said, "I know my rebellious character. What I mean is, I wonder if Miss Lu is willing to give up her love and let your maid be Qingchi's concubine."

Lu Wanzhi said: "Master Gu, although my maid is a slave, she has grown up with me since childhood. I treat her as a sister. I don't want my best friend to be a concubine, even if it is the second son of the Hou family.

Young Master."

Mr. Gu Hou said: "I know, I will tell Qingchi to stop getting entangled."

Lord Gu entered Zhao Heng's room. Zhao Heng, who was lying on the imperial concubine's couch and eating grapes, saw Lord Gu and got up and said, "Uncle, hiss..."

Seeing Zhao Heng who looked very similar to his younger sister, Mr. Gu Hou sighed softly and said, "You, you, let your uncle say something good about you. Your grandmother heard that you were beaten, and she was so worried that she didn't sleep well all night."

Zhao Heng lowered his head and said: "I am unfilial. When I have a ten-day holiday, I will go to see my grandmother."

Lord Gu took out a one hundred tael silver note from his arms and gave it to Zhao Heng: "This is the silver note for you. Keep it well and behave yourself in the academy in the future."

"Thank you uncle."

Zhao Heng kept the banknotes away.

When Lord Gu wanted to leave, Lu Wanzhi asked Yuzhu to see him off. She walked up to Zhao Heng and said, "Give me the banknote."

Lu Wanzhi was relieved to let Zhao Heng hold the five taels of silver previously. After all, it would be difficult for Zhao Heng to go to Luoyang to find the Queen Mother with only five taels of silver.

But with one hundred taels of silver, I could travel from Chang'an to Luoyang to find the Queen Mother.

Zhao Heng raised his eyes and said: "Why should I give you the money? Didn't the reward you got today be enough? I was beaten like this by you, and they even gave you a reward. Did you do something to my father and the others?

Lower your head?"

Lu Wanzhi said slowly: "A reward is a reward. Yesterday, you personally said that you would repay my sister's generous dowry. For the time being, this money will be used for you to raise my sister's dowry."

Zhao Heng accepted the mistake and gave the banknote to Lu Wanzhi: "How much money does this rich dowry cost?"

Lu Wanzhi said: "When I got married, the dowry given to me by my family was six thousand taels of silver plus this Luyuan and several shops. When my third sister gets married, no matter what, the dowry cannot be less than ten thousand taels of silver."

"Ten thousand taels?"

Zhao Heng took a breath of cold air, how long would it take to raise the money?

Lu Wanzhi said: "Nowadays, marrying a daughter requires a high dowry. Although my Lu family is not a wealthy family, we cannot let our daughter suffer. A dowry of 10,000 taels is not too much."

Zhao Heng said: "Then during the ten-day holiday, I will go to the gambling house more often."

Lu Wanzhi: "...As a scholar of Qinglan Academy, if you dare to go to the gambling house, you will be punished according to the academy rules. I don't mind beating you again. After all, you will be given such a generous reward for beating you."

This time, the rewards given by His Majesty were quite generous. The high-quality corals and shiny sea pearls sent by the King of Chu were priceless treasures.

Zhao Heng said: "I just won't go to the gambling house."

Lu Wanzhi chuckled and said, "Let's have lunch early later. Don't be too late to come to the academy in the afternoon."

"No way? I am so injured that I still want to study? Didn't my aunt tell you yesterday not to keep forcing me to study? Do you want to resist?"

Lu Wanzhi looked at Zhao Heng and said, "Just tell me whether you want to be a pillar of the imperial court?"

Zhao Heng's eyes lit up and he asked: "If you study hard, can you really become a pillar of the imperial court?"

"Of course, my grandfather was a veteran of three dynasties. He became Prime Minister Zuo at the age of twenty-five and assisted the Mingjuns of three dynasties. He started studying at three quarters of the Yin hour since he was a child and did not rest until the quarter of the Hai hour. Only then could he become a well-deserved pillar of the imperial court."

Lu Wanzhi was extremely proud when she talked about where her grandfather came from.

When Zhao Heng heard about Yinshi Sanji, he said with emotion: "I suddenly feel that being a dandy prince is much better than being a pillar."

Lu Wanzhi said: "How long can you be a dandy? To be disrespectful, people live seventy years ago. How many years can the Queen Mother protect you?"

Zhao Heng said displeased: "How dare you curse my imperial grandmother?"

Lu Wanzhi shook her head lightly: "No, I naturally hope that the Queen Mother can live a thousand years, but birth, old age, illness and death are not up to anyone."

Zhao Heng was surprised by Lu Wanzhi's boldness and said, "Aren't you afraid that your Lu family will be wiped out?"

Lu Wanzhi said: "I am still the daughter-in-law of the Sun family. If I want to destroy the nine clans of the Sun family, I will also destroy them. What should I be afraid of?"

Zhao Heng felt unhappy after hearing Lu Wanzhi's words, and muttered in a low voice: "We are all going to get divorced, or is it the Sun family's daughter-in-law?"

Lu Wanzhi added: "The Queen Mother is old, and you are about to reach adulthood. You should not hide under the Queen Mother's wings, but soar into the sky alone, and make the Queen Mother proud of you. The Queen Mother is happy and proud of you, maybe you can really do that

A thousand years of worry-free life.”

After hearing Lu Wanzhi's words, Zhao Heng really wanted to study in his heart. Lu Wanzhi would really bow down to others.

"Girl, girl." Yuzhu came in a hurry and said, "I just saw Marquis Gu off when I saw Marquis Wu'an coming."

Lu Wanzhi frowned slightly. She didn't want to see Sun Ke at all: "Why is he here again?"
