Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 40
Li Taiwei trembled as soon as he stepped out, and suddenly turned around to stare at Lu Xiao, his eyes widened:
"you dare!"

Lu Xiao glanced at her, as if if you don't believe me, just try it, but Li Taiwei felt a little apprehensive.

She turned her face to look at Dafu, and then looked around.
When it comes to the force value, she really doesn't have the advantage right now!

If this guy is really shameless and shameless, she, her reputation in the future
Li Taiwei's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"What is Lu Shizi's intention?"

Lu Xiao lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on Mrs. Li's flushed and smooth cheeks. He smiled very unkindly, and said:
"Then Princess Lao Chonghua will help."

Mrs. Li vomited blood angrily, faintly feeling like she was on a pirate ship.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Yuan watched his elder brother fly away, his hand sank suddenly, and the other end of the wooden pulp fell into his hand for no reason.

He is young and his stature has not yet grown, if he hadn't reacted quickly just now and immediately clenched the wooden pulp tightly with both hands, I'm afraid the girl who fell into the water would have to suffer again.

As soon as the woman saw his brother leave, she panicked and threw herself into the water again.Lu Yuan didn't care about etiquette at this time, he could only rely on his buttocks to hold on to the wooden pulp, calling out:
"Brother—!"

At the moment when he exhausted his strength and was about to let go, his elder brother finally landed on the bow of the boat, but suddenly there was a very good-looking sister beside him.

But the elder sister looked unhappy and stared at her brother viciously. If she hadn't turned pale, she might have been very intimidating.

As soon as Lu Xiao grasped the oar, he pulled it lightly, and the woman was pulled to the bow of the boat, with both hands clinging to the side of the boat.

"Stay away!"

Li Taiwei almost spoke through his teeth.

Lu Xiao turned his head and glanced at her:
"you sure?"

After saying that, he moved two small steps to the side, and the boat shook instantly.

Just now Li Taiwei flew over from the shore with her arms around her waist, her heart was still beating rapidly.At this moment, he couldn't stand still at all. Before he could cry out in surprise, he was snatched back by Lu Xiao, and his whole body was stuck on it in an instant.

Lu Xiao didn't expect the girl's body to be so soft. Immediately, his ears felt a little hot. He stared at Li Taiwei in a daze, and squeezed her slender waist in his hands, tightening a little involuntarily.

Li Taiwei regained consciousness, stared at Lu Xiao's hand on her waist, her face turned green with anger, and strangled Lu Xiao's neck without any hassle.

Lu Yuan was taken aback and almost didn't cry out.

Lu Xiao raised his hand to parry a few times, and then escaped from the tiger's claws. His face was slightly hot, and he looked at Lu Yuan unnaturally, and said:
"What are you looking at? You haven't pulled people up yet?"

Lu Yuan didn't even close his mouth in shock, and heard Mrs. Li say coldly:

"You are really capable of calling a child around!"

Lu Xiao cleared his throat, and it was rare that he didn't talk back. He turned the oars away from his face and walked to the stern lightly, with his back to everyone.

Li Taiwei's liver hurts.

Helplessly, there is still a weak woman in the water, so he can only suppress the anger in his heart, and work together with Lu Yuan to pull the underwater girl onto the boat.

Lu Yuan was only nine years old, busy imitating his brother's appearance and turning around.Li Taiwei took off his cloak and covered the woman in the water.

"Miss Jinsi?"

Li Taiwei called out.

The woman was wet all over, her long loose hair stuck to her face, and she sat on the bow of the boat as if she was exhausted.Hearing Li Taiwei's call, he raised his eyes to look at Li Taiwei, trembled and cried out.

There could be more than a hundred officials surnamed Jin in Shengjing, but the only one who could come to attend the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet was Jin Zhengfeng, the official censor.

Miss Jin's name is Jin Ling, she is the old daughter of Mrs Jin, and she is a descendant of the royal family, apart from Li Taiwei and Changping in Beijing, Jin Ling can be regarded as a leader among noble girls.

"Miss Jin Si, don't cry yet, what happened just now? Why did you fall into the water when you were so happy?"

Jin Ling endured it for a while, then gradually stopped crying, shrank her body and choked up, saying:
"Just now I had a dance with Miss Chang Liu. I was coming out to change clothes. A palace lady came to meet me and said that the Empress Dowager called me over to talk, so I didn't worry too much."

"Walking to the lake, the maid suddenly hurried, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. The maid and I noticed something was wrong and were about to go back, but suddenly a man in black rushed out and pushed me into the lake "

Thinking back now, Jin Ling still felt trembling, and his face was pale.

Li Taiwei couldn't help shivering when he heard it.

Who dares to plan the Jin family at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet?
The boat landed on the shore, the maid of the Jin family was trembling all over, she stepped forward to hug Jin Ling, and the master and servant cried again.

"My maid can do some work, I'll ask her to take you to the Nuan Pavilion first to change clothes."

Li Taiwei put the hood of the cloak on Jin Ling's head, covering her long damp hair.

"Remember, if you meet anyone on the road, just say that your girl sprained her foot by the river and stained her clothes, and don't say anything else. Do you understand?"

Weeping, Jin Ling tightened the dark red cloak on Mrs. Li's body, and gave her a blessing.

"Thank you, Princess Chonghua, for your rescue! I will come to the door some other day to thank you!"

Without waiting for the maid of the Jin family to kowtow, Li Taiwei hurriedly raised her hand to stop:

"There are too many people in the palace, so there is no need to talk about these empty etiquettes. Hurry up and help you girls tidy up, and don't want to be honest."

The master and servant of the Jin family glanced at Li Taiwei gratefully, and then slightly knelt in Lu Xiao's direction.

Lu Xiao didn't get off the boat, and nodded slightly. Lu Yuan obediently stood beside Lu Xiao, opened a pair of ignorant eyes, and returned the salute shyly.

"Wait a moment!"

Li Taiwei suddenly remembered something, walked up to Jin Ling, and asked intently:

"Miss Jin Si, today I remember that you didn't wear this light yellow dress when you came here, when did you change it?"

Jin Ling was stunned for a moment, then said:
"Today's Mid-Autumn Festival, Miss Chang Liu and I performed the dance "Neon Phoenix", so I changed into this dress."

Li Taiwei took a deep breath:

"What about Miss Chang Liu? What kind of dress is she wearing?"

Jin Ling said in a daze:
"Of course it's also light yellow. She and I are both lead dancers. Although the styles of dance clothes are different, they are all the same color."

"This dance was arranged by Concubine Hua before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the clothes were sent by Cheng'an Palace early in the morning..."

Li Taiwei suddenly raised her heart in her throat:
"Where is Miss Chang Liu now?"

Jin Ling thought for a while and said:
"Miss Chang Liu and I went out to Qiwu Palace, maybe she is also changing clothes at this time."

Li Taiwei turned around suddenly and looked at Lu Xiao. Lu Xiao's eyes were deep, as if he had guessed something, his expression was serious.

Suddenly, a few noisy voices were faintly heard from the other side of the warm pavilion.

After a while, some maids raised palace lanterns one after another, illuminating the front softly.
