Jiang Lu was confused, how could this have anything to do with him again?
Seeing his confusion, Jiang Qingshan sneered coldly: "If I pass this title on to you now, do you think you can handle it? Let me tell you, this so-called Pingxuanhou Mansion is just a huge empty shell! If
Without other channels to consolidate your position, do you think you can still be Ping Xuanhou?"
Jiang Hu felt speechless.
Does his official career depend on sacrificing his sister's future? If so, Jiang Wu might as well not come back. She would stay in her hometown of Fusi, Beizhen. Fu Heng treats her well, and she cannot be forced to marry him anyway.
Beirong's whole life passed like this.
"No matter what you say, I will stop this. Give this title to whomever you like. Don't you still have the official brother?"
Guan Ge'er is Aunt Duan's son. He was born with a weak disease from his mother's womb. He is now four or five years old, but his body and bones may not be as healthy as other children's two or three years old.
This is the first time Jiang Lu has talked to his father like this, but he doesn't feel very guilty in his heart. What is the most important thing to his father, him? But obviously not, if he died on the battlefield, this
The title will also be replaced by an official brother. What he wants has always been the words "Pingxuanhou Mansion".
Jiang Lu strode out of the study. His entourage had rarely seen him so angry. He spoke with trepidation. The entourage said: "Today, the second lady sent a message, saying that she has something to discuss with you."
In any case, Jiang Lu is indeed sincerely fond of Jiang Lu's sister. Just like now, because of Jiang Lu's words, he ran over to her in the middle of the night. The entourage was also a bit stupid and only said that Jiang Lu wanted to date him.
When they met, they didn't say the time, so Jiang Lu went there on her own initiative.
He had stayed at the border for two or three years before. At that time, Jiang Lu was only thirteen years old. He was pretty and cute. Every time he saw him, he would greet him with a sweet voice. He had only been back in Beijing for more than two months. The relationship between the two brothers
We are not strangers, but we have to admit that we are no longer as close as before.
He walked to the door of Jiang Lu's courtyard, and before anyone could announce him, he made a gesture of hissing, and the faint conversation between Jiang Lu and the maid could be heard in the room.
"Why do you have to dress up so late, Miss?"
Then came Jiang Lu's voice: "I made an appointment with my brother and said that I have something to discuss with him. He is expected to be here soon. Have you ordered the kitchen? Remember to prepare sweet soup, my brother's favorite."
There was a smile on Jiang Lu's lips. She didn't expect Jiang Lu to know his preferences so well after so long. He was happy when he heard the maid say: "Miss, you want the eldest young master to help you deal with the guy from Fuqu Pavilion."
Right? My servant thinks that the young lady need not worry, after all, that one will be married by the Holy Lord soon, and I am afraid that he will die of old age in Beirong in the future."
Jiang Lu's smile froze on his lips. He didn't expect that Jiang Lu also knew about this. Then did she know that she was the original choice to marry her?
Just as he was thinking this, he heard Jiang Lu say: "Fortunately, if I hadn't taken the initiative and asked my father to let me try to win over King An, my father might not have made the decision so quickly to ask the man from Fuqu Pavilion to go for me.
Marriage, originally, is that I have been my legitimate daughter for more than ten years, now that she comes back, do I have to give it to her?"
Naturally, the maids said some flattering words to her, and Jiang Lu was very happy to hear it. Jiang Lu, who was outside the door, felt that their words were like sharp knives one after another, going straight into his heart.
stamp.
The Jiang Lu in his impression, let alone deliberately calculating other people's futures, probably couldn't even say a strong word. But what was Jiang Lu saying just now? Every word she said, every word, he
They all knew each other, but when combined together, they were completely unfamiliar things, which even made him feel that Jiang Lu had become a stranger.
Naturally, the entourage heard everything Jiang Lu said. The entourage only complained about why he had ears. Is this what a servant of his could hear?
Jiang Lu stood there for a while and heard Jiang Lu and the maid say something bad about Jiang Wu. Finally, when the maid was about to open the door and go to the kitchen to get sweet soup, she quietly hid aside.
He sighed, turned around and left. Before leaving, he did not forget to tell the concierge: "Tell the second lady that I have some official duties and I can't discuss things with her tonight."
The concierge nodded.
Now that he knows that she is not looking for him to look back on the past, nor is he a sister to care about his brother, she just hopes that he can stand on her side to deal with his real sister.
Jiang Hu only felt ridiculous.
As he walked, he found that he had arrived at Fuqu Pavilion - this place was different from other places in Jiang Mansion. Although Jiang Mansion was generally unpopular and cold, in comparison, Fuqu Pavilion had
It was really like a graveyard.
This place was originally not too remote, but after Jiang Wu resigned a few servants that day, Aunt Chen replaced her with a few more servants. The new servants were not as many as those who had been dismissed, but fortunately there was no such thing in the Fuqu Pavilion courtyard.
Da, there are only so many people, and the work is much wider. However, the servants of Fuqu Pavilion are not like the quarrelsome people in other courtyards. They often just stay in the courtyard and don't go out much. Jiang Wu is there all day long.
Wan was not even at the house.
At night, other people's courtyards had lights on, but Fuqu Pavilion turned off the lights early in the morning, as if they were afraid someone would come to visit.
Jiang Lu will be an uninvited guest today.
…
When Jiang Wu heard the concierge's announcement, he really thought he had heard it wrong.
Why did Jiang Lu come to her when she had nothing to do? She simply put on her hair and clothes, then sat at the table and yawned. When Jiang Lu walked in, she reluctantly raised her eyelids and said, "Sit down."
Jiang Lu looked at the deserted room and asked, "You went to bed so early?"
How could Jiang Wu go to bed so early? She was reading, but she didn't want to light all the lights. It would be troublesome to attract attention, but she didn't bother to explain to Jiang Lu, so she nodded.
"Come to me so late, what's wrong?" Jiang Wu picked a preserved fruit on the table and threw it into his mouth.
Jiang Lu looked at her and felt uneasy for no reason: "Do you know about the marriage?"
Unexpectedly, Jiang Wu's reaction to this matter was much calmer than he expected. Her expression did not change and she nodded lightly: "I know, if you are here to persuade me to be obedient, please come back.
I will not marry. The honor of Pingxuanhou Mansion has nothing to do with me. If you think I have resisted the decree or the court wants to arrest me, then so be it."
Jiang Lu's expression became complicated, "That's not what I meant."
Jiang Wu raised his eyebrows: "Then what do you mean?"
The lights on the table flickered on and off, and the two similar faces stared at each other, but what they were thinking in their minds were completely different.
Then Jiang Hu said: "The Holy Emperor will not personally issue an order on this matter, so it can be changed as long as it is before the princess's canonization ceremony."
