Jiang Lu sometimes feels that he is nothing in the eyes of his father.
When Jiang Wu first came back, she thought that what she should do was to let her father remember her, let her father treat her well, and not forget her.
Even when she later found out that she was a concubine from the beginning and that her father was not ignorant, she told herself that her father had his own considerations before doing everything.
A father who is indifferent to everyone is better than other fathers who are partial.
But she didn't expect that in the eyes of her father, she was really worthless. He didn't care about anything. He only wanted the glory of the Hou Mansion. He could beg the emperor to let her get married. After discovering that she had something more
After she plays an important role, you can also go to the emperor to replace her with Jiang Wu.
Yes, on the surface, staying in the capital is certainly better than going to get married.
But, does she want to, does she want to do this? She doesn't want to, she admires King An, and she wants to be the woman beside King An, so she has no objection to her father's arrangement. But how long has passed, King An
If there was no response, he asked her to change someone, from King An to King Duan?
What does he think of as a daughter?
Jiang Lu had a lot of things to say, but when it came to it, she couldn't utter a single word. She looked at Jiang Qingshan, the father she had admired for more than ten years, and her eyes and tone were full of strangeness, "I
Of course, I will listen to my father."
How could Jiang Qingshan not see that she was unwilling? But he didn't care. Maybe just like what she said, he didn't care about his children.
"Prince Duan will enter the capital tomorrow. You go to the city gate to greet him."
When Jiang Lu heard this, even she paused: "But wouldn't this be... too direct?"
She and Prince Duan had never even met each other, not to mention they were not relatives, so why did she rush to greet him at the city gate? This was too direct, and it might not be effective.
Jiang Lu changed his mind and said again: "If I go alone, I'm afraid it will be too direct and the effect will not be good. But if I ask my sister to go with me, it will appear that the two of us are going on behalf of the Hou Mansion."
She was a little worried, fearing that her father would see her little thoughts, but Jiang Qingshan just looked at her with a half-smile, and then nodded lightly: "It's up to you."
Jiang Lu returned to her yard. When she stood at the door, she stared at the plaque in her yard for a long time.
Her yard is called Langhuan Pavilion. Langhuan means heavenly fairyland. I think she was once the sweet girl of heaven, but later she became like this for some reason. She is already sixteen years old. If she were placed in other people's homes
, I am afraid that they have already married and had children, but now, they have to do their best to find a suitable buyer for themselves like a commodity.
She looked worried since she came back. Her maid asked cautiously: "What's wrong, girl?"
Jiang Lu looked at her and suddenly said: "Let's go to Fuqu Pavilion."
Since I am not having a good time, then no one else should have a good time.
…
When Jiang Lu arrived at Fuqu Pavilion, Jiang Wu was taking a nap. It is not appropriate to call it a nap, because she slept all day long.
Jiang Lu said that his father had ordered them to go to the city gate to meet King Duan tomorrow, but Jiang Wu just waved his hand lazily to show that he understood.
Jiang Lu was a little stunned and said again: "You... didn't have any reaction?"
Jiang Wu propped up his arms and sat up: "How should I react? Prince Duan is not a relative of mine. He said he was going to pick him up, but it was just a formality. You should be familiar with this scene. Why are you acting so panicked?"
When Jiang Lu heard it, he felt like he was enlightened!
Prince Duan is returning to Beijing at this juncture. No matter what the reason is for approaching him, there will definitely be many people going to greet him tomorrow. Can't he just stay by his side? Why worry about something that is not there?
.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Wu had such a deep understanding. Jiang Lu's mood improved instantly. She showed a rare unprepared smile, and then went out happily.
Jiang Wu was completely stunned.
Hexiang and Zhishu, who were busy wiping the decorative bottles, looked at each other and looked confused. Hexiang whispered: "This is the first time for this slave to see the second lady like this."
Zhishu nodded and replied: "It seems that the second young lady is not willing to pick up His Highness Prince Duan, so she wants to take our young lady with her."
When Jiang Wu heard this, it could be said that she didn't care at all. In her opinion, everything in this world, as long as it has nothing to do with life and death, is a trivial matter.
…
The next day, they were going to leave early in the morning. In order to play a good role as a background, Jiang Wu specially picked a pair of unspectacular clothes, a ginger-yellow fallen leaf pattern for good luck, with small palace lanterns embroidered on the collar and sleeves, and the middle color was white.
Wearing a horse-faced skirt with floral ribbons and fluttering pieces, and her hairstyle was just a bun that is common among girls, Jiang Wu was quite satisfied, thinking she looked like an ordinary little girl.
Mo Hua and Ging Guo were full of praises and compliments on how cute they were. They said that girls should dress like this more often in the future, so that they would look cute and fit their age.
In fact, Jiang Wu often forgets that she is sixteen years old. After all, she was twenty-four or five in her previous life, and she really doesn't have some girlish things.
If a girl's heart is like a deer bumping into each other, then the deer in her heart may have died young.
She originally thought that her outfit was relatively inconspicuous, but she didn't expect that Jiang Lu was even more low-key than her today. Jiang Lu wore a light orange gown with light lines on the cuffs and collar, and the outer layer was embroidered
Maple leaves, yellow and white long skirt, and just an ordinary silver hairpin on her head.
Jiang Lu saw her and said, "Sister, get on the carriage quickly."
Jiang Wu looked her over, feeling a little suspicious. Every time he went out before, Jiang Lu always wanted to dress up with all his strength. Today, this time it was too plain, and he even urged her to get on the carriage?
Didn't Jiang Lu take Qiao by himself before and wait at the door of the house?
Maybe Jiang Wu had all the expressions written on his face. Jiang Lu paused and said, "Let's go quickly, or daddy will see it later."
Jiang Wu understood.
It turned out that Jiang Lu was afraid that King Duan would fall in love with him.
She was really surprised that Jiang Lu was really passionate about King An. She thought that Jiang Lu was only interested in King An because of Jiang Qingshan's order, but it turned out to be true. Even for King An, he
He did not hesitate to defy Jiang Qingshan.
"Okay, let's go." Jiang Wu nodded, but she had no intention of embarrassing Jiang Lu.
Some things have passed for so long, and no one has mentioned them for so long, that she has almost forgotten them - next month, the Beirong envoy will come to Beijing.
