Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 17
"Eunuch Du is here today, is there something wrong?"

Seeing Lu Xiao's cold eyes, Eunuch Du shuddered, and then he came back to his senses.

"Yes, yes, look at this slave's memory!"

"Yesterday, the imperial concubine heard the news and said...that the son and the daughter of Li Xiang's family had a conflict, and the special servant came over to take a look..."

"Your Majesty also ordered that if it is inconvenient for the Elder Master to come forward, the Empress can help the Elder Master to make things better..."

Eunuch Du smiled shyly, his gaze fell on Lu Xiao's swollen and purple half of his face.

Lu Xiao stood with his hands behind his back, hearing that his face was as black as the bottom of a pot!
What a fart!
Concubine Xiao Gui is his direct aunt, and his deceased mother is also a twin son of the same mother, so it goes without saying that he has been affectionate to him since he was a child.

He thought that his aunt had sent someone to visit him when she heard that he had been beaten.Who would have thought that it was to remind him to come and apologize to that wicked woman Li Taiwei!
Lu Xiao was quite indifferent in his heart, it only took two days, and the feng shui took turns!He still has to watch her Li Taiwei's face to live!

If you really want to talk about it, since his Lu family has the military power, why should he be afraid of her Li family?

Lu Xiao's face was gloomy, thinking of her aunt's painstaking planning for the sixth prince in her previous life, she guessed something in her heart.

Li Xiang is the head of civil servants, his aunt does not want to easily offend Li's family because of him.

"Whoever wants to go will go, anyway, I won't go!"

Lu Xiao's old man with a face full of embarrassment returned to his old bastard appearance.

Seeing the stalemate between the two, Luo Shi hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.

"Trouble my father-in-law to convey to the empress the meaning of Lord Hou. When the son's face improves, he will definitely bring the son to visit the Xiangye's house."

Eunuch Du felt relieved and hurriedly said:

"Okay, okay! This servant went back to the palace to report to the empress. Madam has worked so hard to take care of the son these few days. The imperial concubine empress said that on the day of the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, I would like to invite my wife to go earlier so that I can talk to you personally!"

Hearing this, Lu Xiao paused slightly with his fingers caressing the belt.

Luo Shi complied, and personally sent Eunuch Du out, and when he returned, Lu Xiao had already disappeared.

Luo Shi looked at the empty room, his eyes flickered.

…………

The night is like pitch black, and the moon is like a silver hook.

Li Taiwei loosened her long hair, changed her clothes again, and was about to go to bed when she heard something hit the window lattice covered with Korean paper, making a crisp and thin sound.

"Who?"

Li Taiwei called out vigilantly, but no one answered in the ear room.

Only then did Li Taiwei remember that Huichun went to Dafu's room to check the size for her, and tomorrow she will send her new clothes to be cut by her second aunt.

Now she's the only one left in the house...

Li Taiwei quietly took out a small dagger from under the pillow. This is a habit left over from her previous life. Only by putting a sharp knife under the pillow can she sleep more peacefully.

"Click", another crisp sound.

Li Taiwei was definitely someone outside this time, and the hairs all over his body stood on end.

She was hesitating whether to call out for help, after all, there was no one in the ear room, and there were still gatekeepers and night maids in her yard.

"Li Taiwei! Old hag!"

Someone outside the window pinched his throat and called her in a low voice.

Li Taiwei's heart fell back into his stomach, and only for a moment, it hung high again.

Why did the old widower come to look for her in the middle of the night?Could it be that he deliberately came to ruin her reputation?
She hid the dagger behind her back with one hand, and pushed open the window from the inside with the other.

Sure enough, the old widower Lu Xiao had an extremely wonderful face!
"old……"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Lu Xiao tapped his acupuncture points. Li Taiwei felt careless in his heart!

The dagger in his hand tightened, and Li Taiwei glared at Lu Xiao viciously, wishing to kill the old widower with his eyes!
Lu Xiao and Li Taiwei stood across the window, reached out their hands to touch the acupoints, only to realize that Li Taiwei was only wearing spacious pajamas, and hurriedly turned his face away, with an embarrassed look on his face:

"I... I just came to tell you that you must not wear a goose-yellow dress on the day of entering the palace for the Mid-Autumn Palace banquet in a few days. You must remember! No matter who tells you to wear it, you don't agree!"

Li Taiwei stared until his eyes were sore, he just waited for Lu Xiao to say such a thoughtless sentence, and immediately looked at him suspiciously.

But Lu Xiao didn't explain anything. When he reached out to unlock her acupuncture points, his fingertips paused again, as if he remembered something, and said seriously:
"It was not my fault that your carriage was frightened at the gate of the city yesterday."

Li Taiwei rolled his bright eyes at him, the meaning was obvious, I believe you grandma!
Lu Xiao's face darkened, he straightened his neck and said:
"I saw a wound on the horse's belly. Although it is not obvious, I suspect that the carriage has been tampered with. If you have time, you can investigate secretly. It is related to your own safety, and you can decide for yourself!"

It was rare for Li Taiwei to see him talking to her in such a serious manner, so her expression eased.

Her carriage had been tampered with?

In her previous life, she was only Lu Xiao's conscientious trickster!She hadn't noticed this before, but even if Ma'er was frightened, it might not have really hurt her life without Lu Xiao being in the way and guards like Cheng Hemen blocking her.

And if you don't come sooner or later, you are in Chenghemen...

Li Taiwei fell into deep thought, for a moment he forgot to fight Lu Xiao.

Seeing her smoothing her hair, Lu Xiao raised his hand to undo her acupuncture points.

The moonlight shone through the sycamore branches and leaves on the window lattice in front of Li Taiwei, coating her whole body with a layer of soft light.Her silky black hair was gathered in front of her skirt, revealing only a palm-sized face, as white as jade.

A pair of amber eyes were looking at him slyly.
sly?

etc! .
Lu Xiao's instinct as a general made him take a step back, but unfortunately it was still a moment too late!
A bright short blade was placed on his neck.

Great!
Lu Xiao looked at Li Taiwei's body leaning forward through the window, his brows trembled.

"Old widower! You are quite courageous, dare to come to me presumptuously! Today you sent me to the door by yourself!"

Li Taiwei gritted her teeth, her eyes glowed green, and she quickly calculated in her mind where to bury the old bastard in the mansion without anyone noticing.

Lu Xiao looked down at Li Taiwei's dagger with five-color gems embedded in his hand, and frowned.

"Can this knife kill?"

He was a person rolling on the tip of a knife, looking at this weapon with the word "gorgeous" everywhere, he couldn't bear it.

Mrs. Li sneered:
"Lu Shizi might as well try it with his neck"

As he spoke, he put more force on the dagger.

Seeing that the dominatrix came for real, Lu Xiao naturally wouldn't let her succeed, tilted his head slightly, and took another step back.

Li Taiwei's hand with a sharp blade was raised high through the window lattice, hanging in mid-air in such an embarrassing way.
Lu Xiao put his hands behind his back, his eyes were full of teasing, and he looked sideways at Mrs. Li's increasingly dark and blue face, feeling that the grievances he had suffered in the past two days were gone in an instant.
"Princess, who are you talking to?"

Huichun pushed the door open and came in, seeing Li Taiwei standing alone by the window, he was a little suspicious.

Li Taiwei turned around, his eyes were burning red, holding a golden dagger in his hand, trembling with anger.

Hua Chun was startled, and hurriedly said:

"What is the princess doing?"

Li Taiwei gritted her teeth, and it took a long while before she said viciously:

"Practice the sword!"
