In the alley, the wild cats on the green eaves walked cautiously on their feet.
From time to time he stopped, raised his tail, and looked at the two people in the alley.
Lu Jing and Nan Xuehu, one was in the alley and the other was outside the alley.
Nan Snow Tiger stands tall with his hands behind his back.
Lu Jing turned around to look at him, his eyes calm and calm.
This alley is indeed a bit deserted, it is silent, except for the swaying of branches, there is only the sound of wild cats.
Lu Jing looked at Nan Xuehu for only two or three breaths, then nodded slowly, but did not turn around, but waited quietly in the alley.
Nan Xuehu saw Lu Jing's reaction, smiled softly, and walked into the alley.
The two of them walked side by side towards the depths of the alley.
There is nothing domineering about Nan Xuehu today, he just looks like a handsome nobleman.
And Lu Jing beside him was equally outstanding.
With a handsome appearance, black hair tied casually behind her back, giving off a dull luster, and a tall body, the name Lu Jingxiao's mother is actually true.
It's just that Lu Jing's clothes are much simpler than Nan Xuehu's.
Many people could tell at a glance that the fabric of Lu Jing's clothes was very ordinary. It was not the warm silk from Sanghuai Mansion or the fine cotton from Liuqing Mansion.
Especially when he and Nan Xuehu were walking together, they looked a lot different compared to the brocade clothes he was wearing.
But even so, there was still no trace of embarrassment on Lu Jing's face.
The two of them were walking slowly, and Nan Xuehu suddenly said: "It's actually a good thing that my uncle has returned to Nanfu. With a man like my uncle, Nanfu will no longer be idle, and there is no need for He Yu Chengjue to hold the sword."
Lu Jing listened quietly.
Nan Xuehu continued: "In this way, the clan will probably not force her to get married. Maybe after some time, the Nanfu will come to cancel the engagement.
Although this is not a good thing for you, it can make you more stable."
Lu Jing listened to Nan Xuehu's words, with a look of curiosity on his face: "You don't want Nan Heyu to inherit the title, and you don't want her to wear Nanfu's grass-cutting knife, isn't it for yourself?"
Nan Xuehu said frankly: "I don't deserve it."
Lu Jing looked at him, curiosity still in his eyes.
If others asked Nan Xuehu such questions, Nan Xuehu would definitely frown and get angry.
But today, perhaps because Nan Xuehu felt guilty towards Lu Jing, he answered calmly: "I am just a concubine who gave birth to a son..."
"Is there any other reason?" Lu Jing interrupted him and looked directly into Nan Xuehu's eyes: "If there is a legitimate son in the family, the bastard son is naturally worthless, so just be a rich man with peace of mind.
But there is no legitimate son in the Nan family. You are the eldest heir of Nan Tinggui, the eldest son of the Duke, and you are also talented. It is better for a concubine to have a son than for a woman to inherit the title."
Nan Xuehu was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I have a reckless and impulsive personality, and I am somewhat brave. I can be a lieutenant or even a general in the army, but I cannot inherit the position of Duke of Nanfu.
You don’t understand what’s going on here, and even I don’t understand it very well.”
Lu Jing then nodded and said suddenly: "So you came to Lu Mansion to warn me that day, really just for Nan Heyu?"
The two of them walked in silence for more than ten steps. Just as they were about to speak, Lu Jing suddenly stopped and said to him, "Wait for me here. I'll go in and get a few things."
Nan Xuehu looked up and saw a cloth village.
He took a careful look at Lu Jing, feeling a little helpless in his heart.
When others see him as Nan Xuehu, even those noble gentlemen must be respectful and will never dare to neglect him.
But Lu Jing seemed a little tired.
After Lu Jing finished speaking, he walked into the cloth village without even waiting for Nan Xuehu's reply.
Nan Xuehu could only wait for him outside Buzhuang.
Without waiting too long, Lu Jing brought out several well-wrapped packages, which were wrapped in twine and held in his hands.
Nan Xuehu saw the package and said, "You should make some clothes, otherwise you won't look like a descendant of a rich family at all."
Lu Jing ignored him, just picked up the package and carefully smoothed the wrinkles on it.
Nan Xuehu wanted to move forward, but Lu Jing turned around again. Nan Xuehu took a deep breath and remembered what he had done that day, so he endured the unpleasantness in his heart and turned around with Lu Jing.
"He Yu is one year younger than me." Nan Xuehu looked forward with nostalgia on his face: "When I was young, my mother was always sick, and my father also invited many famous doctors to come over, but to no avail.
When she was little, He Yu was very kind-hearted and always sent some excellent things over. At that time, she was little and tiptoed over, bringing supplements collected from all over the house.
Well... sometimes it's supplements, sometimes it's ridiculous little things, but no matter what, there's always a heart in it."
"She is not only so kind to my mother and me, she is also very kind to all the elders and servants in the house.
Later, she went to Yuxing Island and picked a strange flower from somewhere.
My mother has been suffering from illness for many years, but after taking the decoction made from that flower, she suddenly got better. To this day, she still manages those useless green plants in the house every day."
"Now that I think about it, if it hadn't been for that flower, maybe my mother would have left me when I was sixteen..."
When Nan Xuehu said this, he couldn't help but turn his head and said to Lu Jing: "You are also a concubine and gave birth to a son. Naturally you should know that in the noble palace, without your mother, you have nothing."
"Well... your situation may be worse than mine, but at least my biological father is kind-hearted."
If others were here, they would be surprised.
Because at this time, Nan Xuehu spoke very slowly, and his eyes were surprisingly serious, not as violent as usual.
"I see."
Lu Jing also nodded slightly and said with great admiration: "In this way, the reason why you can abandon the kindness in your heart and threaten me, an innocent person, is to clear the way for Nan Heyu, who has been kind since childhood.
.
Let her walk on the path of pursuing the sword as you said, with her soul shining on the stars, and her pure Yang passing through the thunder tribulation."
"Such reasons make others admire you."
When Lu Jing said this, the two of them happened to walk on a bridge.
Under the bridge is a branch of the Zhutai River, called Kufeng River.
This place is already bustling and lively, there are many tourists, and the scenery is very beautiful.
Amidst such scenery, Lu Jing's eyes gradually darkened.
He looked at the river and said softly: "If others heard the reason for waiting, they would definitely praise Mr. Snow Tiger for his sincerity and sincerity. He is willing to be a villain in order to protect his blood sister."
"But I am not someone else. I am the innocent person you used to repay your kindness in the story you just told. From my standpoint, even if you have said so much today, I cannot admire you."
Nan Xuehu stood on the bridge and looked at the flowing water under the bridge: "I'm not trying to make you admire me, nor am I asking for your forgiveness.
I am here today just to tell you that the man in my Nanfu who can hold a sword is back, and if the engagement can be successfully broken off, I will not kill you again."
"Nan Heyu is not a good destination for you. If you marry her, you will be a rich man for the rest of your life, but you will be ridiculed and looked down upon by others.
If I can break off the engagement, I will naturally give you property and money so that you will have no worries in the next life. I will even personally go to the Lu Mansion to find the maidservant who will live with you and give her to you so that you will no longer have to worry about anything.
I also know that you are an innocent person in this matter, but sometimes when you look down from a high place, you cannot consider whether the people below are innocent or not. I hope you understand."
Lu Jing understood the meaning of Nan Xuehu's words.
If the engagement can be broken off smoothly, Nan Xuehu will compensate him.
If not...
But Lu Jing fully agreed with what Nan Xuehu said just now.
He also nodded and said: "This is indeed the case. How can a meat-eater care about the innocent people at a lower place?"
"But Master Xuehu, does he understand? Some people are standing in a low place now, but that doesn't mean they will always be in a low place."
"You talk so much to other people today, they may think you are sincere and guilty, but I know that you are just here to understand your own thoughts, not for me, an innocent person. You
You said those many words, seemingly to compensate me, but you are used to standing in high places, but your tone was full of condescension.
Even not killing me seems like a gift to me."
Lu Jing lowered his head and spoke slowly, his expression unchanged from beginning to end, but his eyes became darker and unclear.
Nan Xuehu was silent and did not speak.
Lu Jing suddenly said: "Now you don't want to kill me, but I want to kill you. Mr. Xuehu, what do you think?"
The silent Nan Xuehu suddenly raised his head, looked at Lu Jing, and said calmly:
"You can't kill me, but I can give you time to kill me."
Lu Jing's face was surprisingly serious, and golden light flashed in his mind, and a lot of information had already arisen.
