Chapter three hundred and fiftieth chapter drag word tactics
In front of the Lu Mansion.
Lin Ji changed into a decent white gown, tied his long hair into a bun, and held his unfashionable magic weapon folding fan in his hand.
The identity of the visitor this time was unusual, and he rarely dressed up.
Speaking of which, Lin Ji's appearance was good-looking and his temperament was quite outstanding. After dressing up a little, if a young lady from another family saw him on the road, he would fall in love at first sight.
This is also the main reason why Lin Ji doesn't dress up much on weekdays.
He's afraid that any girl will die if she sees him. If she's beautiful, it's okay, but if she looks unsatisfactory, what will he do?
Anyway, he still has some pursuits.
When Lin Ji arrived at the door of Lu Mansion, the housekeeper had already been waiting for a long time.
As soon as he saw Lin Ji, he quickly bowed and saluted, then bent slightly and walked half a step in front of Lin Ji, leading Lin Ji into the Lu Mansion.
Lin Ji still remembered that when he first came to visit, although the housekeeper was quite polite, he was determined not to be so respectful.
After all, he was the butler of Duke Lu's mansion. Ordinary officials in the capital would give him two portions of thin noodles when meeting him.
After all, their identities are different.
Last time a guest came to visit, and he was just the lady's guest.
This time, he is the son-in-law and the master of his family.
He followed the housekeeper all the way to the garden of the Lu Mansion. Before he could cross the arch, he saw the beautiful figure waiting outside the door.
The butler bowed again and then quietly withdrew.
Lin Ji looked at Lu Zhaoer, who was rarely wearing a long skirt and a little makeup, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
Obviously they are already very familiar with each other.
"Grandpa is already waiting inside." Lu Zhaoer smiled softly and pointed to the garden.
It was as if she wasn't embarrassed at all.
If her ears weren't already red, Lin Ji would have thought she didn't care about this matter.
"After my grandpa heard that Your Majesty was messing with the Yuanyang Book, he went to the palace to reason with His Majesty, but he was pushed back."
Speaking of this matter, Lu Zhaoer's eyes almost rolled with laughter.
"This is the first time I've seen grandpa get so angry. Fortunately, you went out on errands during this time, otherwise grandpa would have to take action against you."
"That's it..." Lin Ji nodded, and crossed the arch with Lu Zhaoer and came to the garden of Lu Mansion.
In the pavilion in the middle of the garden, Lin Ji saw Lu Guangmu glaring at him at a glance.
There was nothing to be timid about. He took a deep breath and came to Lu Guangmu.
"I've met Mr. Lu Guo."
"Humph!" Lu Guangmu snorted coldly.
"Grandpa!" Lu Zhaoer shouted softly from the side.
Hearing his granddaughter speak, Lu Guangmu finally shook his head, pointed to the empty seat next to him and said, "Sit down."
"Thank you." Lin Ji thanked him and sat down.
Lu Zhaoer sat next to Lin Ji very naturally.
Seeing this scene, Lu Guangmu was not angry at all, and just let out a long sigh.
"Lin Ji."
"exist."
"I... this is my granddaughter." Lu Guangmu said with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone, "I never would have imagined that the granddaughter of my majestic prince would actually end up competing for a man with another girl."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Ji was shocked.
But he immediately looked at Lu Zhaoer.
"I've known it for a long time. I knew it when I was in Victoria." Lu Zhaoer said with a smile.
"I..." Lin Ji came here today wanting to tell Lu Zhaoer frankly that he was engaged, but he didn't expect that others knew about it already. For a moment, he didn't know how to say it.
Lu Zhaoer tilted his head and said no more.
Lu Guangmu continued: "You have to give me an explanation for this matter! It's okay to marry Zhao'er. You are considered a figure. To put it bluntly, you can be the son-in-law of my Lu family. Even if you are the prince-in-law, you are more than enough."
"But Zhao'er..."
"Master Lu, let us handle this matter ourselves." Lin Ji interrupted Lu Guangmu.
He looked at Lu Zhaoer next to him, then looked at Lu Guangmu, and said boldly: "On the one hand, it is the engagement that I have made, and on the other hand, it is difficult to violate the imperial edict, and it is difficult for me to handle it. It is completely difficult to handle."
"You have to give me an explanation."
Lin Jize said bluntly: "We can just delay it. The imperial edict has been issued now. I can't explain this matter clearly in a few words, so I can only delay it."
"Then how long are you going to delay?" Lu Guangmu was obviously not satisfied with this answer.
"Zhao'er is in the fifth realm, and I am in the sixth realm. With a life span of three to five hundred years, I can always sort out this matter."
After the words fell, Lin Ji bowed and saluted.
"The only promise I can make is that I will never let Zhaoer suffer any injustice."
Hearing this, Lu Guangmu shook his head and looked at Lu Zhaoer again.
"Lin Ji is right." Lu Zhaoer nodded lightly, "Although I also have a crush on him, relationships don't happen all the time. We are both still young and we are not in a hurry."
Seeing that Lu Zhaoer said the same thing, Lu Guangmu was silent for a long time, and finally got up and walked out.
"In that case, you can make up your own mind."
Soon, Lu Guangmu walked out of the garden and disappeared.
Lin Ji bowed in the direction he left, and then looked at Lu Zhaoer.
"Zhao'er, I've wronged you."
"What's the grievance? This is actually a good thing for me. It saves me a lot of trouble." Lu Zhaoer shook his head, as if he really didn't take this matter to heart.
"Speaking of which, I heard that you went to handle a case in Pingchuan County, which is not far from the capital. Why did you go there for so many days?"
Lin Ji could tell that Lu Zhaoer seemed to be taking the initiative to change the topic so as not to embarrass him.
"Come to my house and talk. It's time for dinner. This time we got a big fish. I'll cook it myself." Lin Ji stood up with a smile.
Naturally, Lu Zhaoer would not refuse.
...
Editorial Secretary Yamen.
Lan Zeying has just received the following news. All the men he sent to Tianyun Mountain have been killed, and their bodies were destroyed and no trace was left.
In addition, Lin Ji, who was supposed to be trapped in the secret realm, has also returned to Beijing, first to the Jingzhou government office, and then to the Jiantiansi general office.
"The time is just right, Lin Ji... his methods are quite ruthless." Lan Zeying chuckled twice.
"Sir, do you want to arrest Lin Ji for questioning? If this unscrupulous massacre of our colleagues in the Editorial Department is spread, we will lose face."
Lan Zeying raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at the person who spoke.
It's Zi Shu, an old subordinate who has been with him for decades.
"It can't be spread." Lan Zeying shook his head.
Zishu was puzzled and was about to ask.
Lan Zeying spoke directly.
"This matter ends here, there is no need to pursue it further."
"grown ups..."
"Lin Ji was granted a marriage by His Majesty, and Lu Zhaoer is the princess. Now he can be regarded as a relative of the emperor. Your Majesty was quite close to him in the court that day, so it's not good to make an issue with him anymore."
Hearing this, Zi Shu remained silent, but was obviously a little unconvinced.
If it were someone else, Lan Zeying would naturally not pay attention.
But Zi Shu is different. The two of them have climbed all the way to where they are today. Although there is a difference between their superiority and inferiority, Zi Shu is already the person Lan Zeying trusts the most.
"It's better not to delve into some things because you never know who is planning behind them."
