"Hmph! Then what does he look like now? His reputation is not justified. The eldest princess has no interest in him, so he is just chasing after him. It's not embarrassing!"
Mrs. Lu was not only angry with Lu Yuanshan, she also had many complaints against the eldest princess.
You must know that it was Lu Yuanshan who was originally engaged to the eldest princess, but later she fell in love with Jiang Zhe and broke off the engagement with the Lu family, making both Lu Yuanshan and the Lu family a joke.
Lu Yuanshan has not married for so many years. On the surface, others say that he is infatuated, but secretly they laugh at him for being stupid.
The more Mrs. Lu thought about it, the angrier she became. Looking at the food on the table that was almost cold, she spoke in a deep voice.
"Eat! Since he won't come back, we won't wait for him."
If he has the ability, he should marry someone back home as soon as possible. Don't act like a shameless wild man who rushes to please others all day long.
When Lu Yuanshan came back, there were only leftovers on the table. The butler asked someone to take the leftovers away, and Lu Yuanshan gave him helpless advice.
"The old lady got very angry at night and didn't even eat much dinner. Why don't you go over and have a look..."
It’s no wonder that Mrs. Lu was angry when she ran to the eldest princess’ mansion right after she got back.
"Um."
Lu Yuanshan nodded lightly, without changing his clothes, he just walked towards the old lady's room.
The lights were on in the old lady's courtyard. She liked to be quiet in her old age. The maids and women in the courtyard walked very lightly for fear of disturbing her. Lu Yuanshan came in, and several people quickly saluted.
"Go down first, I'll go see the old lady."
"yes."
The maid led him into the house. Lu Yuanshan was in his prime. His appearance was elegant and elegant. He had been well maintained over the years. Although he was a scholar, he had not neglected to exercise. He was much better looking than a martial artist who was tall and thick.
The maid looked at his handsome face and blushed quietly.
The old lady was sitting on the imperial concubine's couch, half-squinting her eyes when she saw this scene, and her heart was filled with excitement.
"Mom, my son is back."
"Hmph! You still know how to recognize me as your mother. I thought you didn't even want a home anymore!"
A teacup was thrown over and broke at his feet. Lu Yuanshan frowned.
"What are you talking about? How could my son not come home?"
He is the master of the Duke's Mansion, and the family's livelihood depends on his courage.
But Mrs. Lu was so angry because she probably knew that he went to see Linlang after returning to Beijing.
Lu Yuanshan poured another cup of tea and handed it over, "Calm down your anger. No matter how angry you are, you can't live with your body."
"Would I be angry if you quickly married and had children? The eldest princess has a noble status, and our Lu family cannot reach her. You should give up this idea after all these years."
Madam Lu took a sip of water, trying to suppress the anger in her heart, but she became angry when she saw Lu Yuanshan's stubborn look.
"My son only loves her, and he will never marry anyone but Linlang in this life!"
"You! Do you want to marry someone you want to marry? It's hot to have your head shaved and pick a new one. After all these years, you still haven't understood that the eldest princess would rather spend time with Jiang Zhe than look at you. Why do you have to rush? Our Duke's Mansion
It’s not that poor people can’t get a wife, but based on your status, you can choose any young lady in the capital, but the old lady won’t believe it, and you still can’t choose the one you like?”
The marriages of the Lu family went smoothly. The men of the Lu family did not take concubines. Although there were always quarrels between the husband and wife, the relationship between the two families was very good.
Mrs. Lu felt that Lu Yuanshan was unwilling to give up. If he could let go, he would have already started a family and started a career.
"It's okay if you don't want to marry a wife. First, choose a roommate to take care of her. If you don't have anyone in your room who knows how to live well, your life will be very difficult."
In order to force him to get married, Mrs. Lu is now breaking even the rules of the Lu family. Lu Yuanshan has never tasted the beauty of women. Once he tastes it, he may not stick to the eldest princess.
Lu Yuanshan's face was condensed and his lips were pursed tightly.
"I won't agree to it. Mom, it's better to give up this idea."
He will only have one woman, Linlang, in his life. If he can't get her, he would rather die alone.
"You! You traitor! Sooner or later, you will make me angry to death."
Mrs. Lu was about to beat him with a cane, but Lu Yuanshan didn't hide away. She just hit him on him. Mrs. Lu used so much strength that his back hurt and he groaned.
"Forget it, get out of here quickly, I will be upset when I see your mother..."
Seeing that he was in pain, the old lady felt sorry for him, but she was angry at the moment and couldn't say anything soft, so she could only drive him away.
Lu Yuanshan bowed and exited. The maid at the door heard the quarrel clearly. The curtain was opened, the man came out, and the maid handed over a bottle of medicinal oil with a blushing face.
"My lord, the old lady is angry. She didn't mean to hit you. Don't get angry with her. You can go back and ask your servants to push away the bruises and then apply the medicinal oil..."
She had been taking care of Mrs. Lu for many years and had never been willing to get married. She was just hoping that one day she would be attracted by her master. When Lu Yuanshan was injured, the maid hurriedly came forward to express her condolences.
"No, take good care of the old lady. It's cold at night and she won't catch a cold."
Except for the eldest princess, Lu Yuanshan didn't pay attention to other women at all. He took a step back and distanced the two of them, with rejection written all over his cold face.
The little maid smiled awkwardly, holding the medicinal oil in her palm, her expression full of embarrassment.
"My slave knows."
Lu Yuanshan returned to the outer courtyard, and the boy helped him apply the medicine. The room was filled with the bitter smell of medicinal oil. Lu Yuanshan thought about Jiang Miao's words.
The eldest princess has no feelings for Jiang Zhe for a long time. It is only a matter of time before they divorce. He has been waiting for so many years and it is not short of the final time.
In the Shen family, Jiang Miaoye and Shen Yanqing were talking about their affairs.
"Tell me why my mother is unwilling to accept Uncle Lu. She is still young and should not waste time with Jiang Zhe."
She couldn't bear to see her mother suffer. The eldest princess was only in her thirties and her good years had just begun. Lu Yuanshan was a good person and had a good family background, and he was infatuated, so it was a good place to end up.
Jiang Miao couldn't figure it out, but Shen Yanqing could guess a little bit.
"Mom's heart is not only about the family ties between her children, but also about family and country affairs."
"You mean the Jiang family's military power? But hasn't the emperor's cousin already taken back the military symbols?"
"Although the military power has been taken back, Jiang Zhe's talents are unmatched by anyone in the army. The emperor wants to keep the border stable and will not touch him easily."
And now that the enemy is watching with eager eyes, the emperor has no one to use except Jiang Zhe. It is also because of this that the eldest princess has been entangled with Jiang Zhe for so many years.
As long as he is still valuable, the eldest princess will not divorce him.
How can royal affairs be as simple as the love between children? Jiang Miao sighed after thinking about it.
Although her scumbag father is a scumbag, his ability to fight with soldiers is unmatched by others, otherwise Prime Minister Liu would not have won over him before.
"Hurry up and find a martial arts genius. Take over the affairs among the generals and compete with him!" Let the eldest princess escape as soon as possible.
Jiang Miao silently made a wish in her heart. Thinking of the martial arts genius, she felt
