Chapter 179 Thoughts
Lu Chengting's guards were already suffocated when his elder son was ridiculed in public. If he hadn't stopped him all the time, they would have wanted to beat that Zou Zijing severely just now.

They didn't have a chance to show it just now, but now seeing that the concubine Shizi was worried that the grandpa would not be able to go upstairs due to his inconvenient legs and feet, they hurriedly said, "Don't worry, the concubine Shizi, going upstairs is really nothing worth mentioning with subordinates here."

Seeing the guard's fawning smile, Xiao Jinyue twitched the corners of his mouth speechlessly.That's right, why did she forget that there were guards there? It's really useless to worry about it.

It was inconvenient for Lu Chengting's hidden guards to show up in front of people, but the martial arts of the guards around him were not weak, it was just going upstairs, it was really not a difficult task.

Seeing Xiao Jinyue's annoyed expression, he knew that she had reacted, and a smile flashed across Lu Chengting's eyes. He didn't expect that she usually looks very smart, and it's funny to be confused occasionally.

Xiao Jinyue gave him a sideways glance, didn't she just forget that this is a world with light skills.

"Okay, you guys go up, I'll take the stairs."

Xiao Jinyue snorted at him, turned around and walked towards the stairs with Bai Guo.

Lu Chengting hid the smile on his lips, and waved his hand at the guard.

The two guards came over immediately, stretched out their hands to lift up the chariot, jumped into the air, and landed firmly next to Shizi Nan'an on the second floor in a blink of an eye.

Seeing this scene, Prince Ningguo, who was standing aside with the other young masters, had a slight glint in his eyes, and quickly glanced at the direction Lu Chengting was in, then looked away as if nothing had happened, and turned to greet his friends who came with him, "Let's go up too."

The excitement was ignored, and a group of dandies didn't take it seriously, and in a blink of an eye they followed Ning Guogong's son happily, stepping on the stairs to the second floor.

Xiao Jinyue glanced back, her eyes paused for a moment on the Prince of Ningguo, and before he looked over, she retracted her gaze, and took Bai Guo into the private room where Prince Nan'an and the others were staying.

Hearing the movement, Prince Nan'an turned around and teased Xiao Jinyue, "Miss Xiao, I didn't expect us to be so destined. I was only out of Beijing for a few days, and when you come back, you will become brother Chengting's concubine."

For his joke, Xiao Jinyue really didn't know what to say, so she smiled and changed the topic, "When did the son of Nan'an come back, and has Princess Minghua returned to Beijing?"

"We just came back this morning. As soon as that girl Minghua returned to Beijing, she was very surprised to hear the news of your wedding. If she hadn't recovered from being tired on the road, she would have gone to the Duke of Zhen's mansion to look for you. "

Xiao Jinyue smiled wryly in her heart, not to mention that Princess Hua was surprised, even she herself was quite surprised when she heard the news.She just saved the prince of Zhen Guo, how could she have thought that the Queen Mother would give her a marriage because of this.

Thinking of what happened downstairs just now, Prince Nan'an couldn't hide his worry, "Brother Cheng Ting, what's the matter with your legs, can you really not walk?"

Although he has a good friendship with Nan'an Shizi, Lu Chengting didn't want to talk about this issue, "The imperial doctor diagnosed that the toxin damaged the meridians, so he couldn't walk. Don't worry, it's just that he can't walk, and his life is still there for the time being."

Hearing this, Prince Nan'an frowned, and wanted to ask if there was any possibility of him recovering.But when he turned his head and saw the two friends sitting next to him, he knew that it was not good to say such words in front of outsiders, so he had to swallow the words that came to his mouth.

However, he scolded those incompetent imperial doctors in his heart, and then raised his smiling face to greet everyone, "Brother Chengting got married, and we haven't even had his wedding wine. Come on, let's give him three respects first." big cup."

Of those two sons, one is Wen Jing, the young master of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and the other is Han Qi, the eldest son of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion.The two of them have always admired the prince of the state of Zhen, and when they heard the words of the prince of Nan'an, they immediately agreed excitedly, "Yes, yes, let's pay respects to the three cups of the prince of the state of Zhen first."

Seeing that Prince Nan'an reached out to grab the flagon and began to pour wine, Xiao Jinyue was really powerless to support his forehead.

If she stopped this kind of scene, it would be a bit disappointing, but Lu Chengting's body can't drink at all.

Taking advantage of the cover of the table, Xiao Jinyue secretly reached out and tugged at his sleeve.

Sensing the movement, Lu Chengting turned his head to look at her calmly, and when he saw her pouting towards the wine glass, he immediately understood what she meant.

But he didn't say anything, turned his head and picked up the teacup in front of him, and said to everyone apologetically, "I'm afraid I won't be able to drink this wine today. In my current situation, the imperial doctor told me not to drink. I hope everyone will forgive me. Replace wine with tea, I respect you all. When I have a chance in the future, I will invite you to drink to your heart's content."

Prince Nan'an paused while pouring wine, and patted his head angrily, "Look at my memory, I get carried away when I see wine, and I forgot that brother Cheng Ting can't drink."

Xiao Jinyue originally thought that the prince of Nan'an would also drink tea instead, but he grinned and laughed, "Brother Chengting is not lucky, this pot of good wine just happened to be divided between the three of us. Come, come, you are welcome, Eat and drink, the food is getting cold..."

Prince Nan'an made jokes, and the atmosphere immediately became lively, and the four of them immediately began to exchange glasses.

Seeing Lu Chengting holding a teacup, Xiao Jinyue couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth when he drank a toast from the three of them, Prince Nan'an.As long as they drink happily, no one will bother her, and she is just happy to eat by herself.

Prince Nan'an is indeed a dandy who is proficient in eating, drinking and having fun. He ordered a large table of dishes that were all delicious. Xiao Jinyue slowly enjoyed them with a bowl of rice.

Originally, he brought her here for dinner, but he didn't expect to meet Prince Nan'an and the others, so everyone had to sit at the same table. Lu Chengting was worried that she would be left out in the cold, and felt a little sorry.

While Prince Nan'an was arguing about respecting Wen Jing and Han Qi, he took the time to glance at her sideways, and saw that she was eating with gusto, the corners of her mouth curled up.

For some reason, he suddenly felt that such a day seemed pretty good.

Although he can't walk with his legs now, he doesn't have to open his eyes every day to fight or be on his way to fight like he did when he was at the border.I have to tense my nerves all day long, for fear that if I don't pay attention one day, foreigners will break through the defense line and rush in to slaughter the people.

Although he held a heavy soldier in his hands at a young age and seemed to have a bright future, no one knew that he was really tired of those days of fighting and killing and licking blood with knives.

Now it is like this, going out to drink tea and eat with friends every now and then, even if you don't do anything, just silently watching your wife eat seems to be a kind of happiness?
The next moment, Lu Chengting was stunned by his sudden thought.

He actually regarded Xiao Jinyue as his wife?
Xiao Jinyue didn't know what Lu Chengting was thinking, but concentrated on savoring the delicious food in front of him.

Suddenly someone knocked on the door of the elegant room, Lu Chengting came back to his senses, and looked up, it was his guard who came in.

"Master, the chief steward sent someone to look for you and the imperial concubine to return to the mansion immediately, saying that Mrs. Tai is not feeling well."

Lu Chengting was puzzled, his grandmother was still in good health before going out, why did he suddenly feel unwell.

He was worried and wanted to call Xiao Jinyue back home.Turning her head, she saw that she didn't seem to be surprised to hear the guard's words, and she took the last bite of food in the bowl unhurriedly, and then slowly put down the chopsticks in her hand.
