After marrying a powerful minister, the female partner was pampered

Chapter 75: Replenishing the body that is depleted today

"Why are you still dumbfounded?" The eldest princess' voice became a little darker when she saw that the master and servant were not moving.

Qiao Jingjing and Mallow quickly stood up and sat down in their original positions.

Unexpectedly, the eldest princess was so angry that she was still in the mood to play poker?
At this moment, the master and the servant did not dare to neglect, and they both concentrated on it.

The fight lasted until sunset, but the eldest princess still felt that she still had more to say.

Qiao Jingjing coughed lightly and put away the playing cards, "Your Highness, it's getting late, I have to go back first."

The eldest princess frowned, a little displeased, "It's not too late."

Qiao Jingjing thought to herself: If she doesn't go back, Qingyuan will definitely find Lu Xingzhi to rescue her soon.

"If the eldest princess is interested, we can fight another day." She compromised.

This was just an excuse from her, but she didn't expect that after she finished speaking, the eldest princess said: "Then come early tomorrow."

Qiao Jingjing: "..."

"Okay, you can go back. I will ask Lu Jing to see you off." The eldest princess said and gave the order.

Qiao Jingjing: "..."

If she could, she wouldn't want to come to the eldest princess' mansion again.

Although the eldest princess did not make things difficult for her, the eldest princess was really interested in poker and was in good spirits. She didn't look tired even after sitting and playing for a whole day. On the other hand, she and Mallow were not tired. It was as if all the energy and energy had been drained away, and he was about to wither.

If it comes one more day, they may have to deal with it in the eldest princess's mansion.

Thinking about it, she said in a consultative tone: "Your Highness, my wife has something to do tomorrow morning. Can I come with you in the afternoon?"

"What's the matter with you?" The eldest princess frowned and sounded dissatisfied.

"Some... personal things." Qiao Jingjing said.

"Okay, come early in the afternoon." The eldest princess reluctantly agreed.

Qiao Jingjing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, she can sleep until she wakes up naturally tomorrow morning and replenish her body that was depleted today.

"The wife has resigned."

"Ah."

As soon as the master and servant walked out of the eldest princess's mansion, they saw a carriage speeding towards them and stopped outside the eldest princess's mansion.

"Madam, it's our carriage." Mallow said sharply.

As soon as Qiao Jingjing raised her eyes, she saw the car curtain was opened and a tall figure walked out.

It was Lu Xingzhi.

When she saw him, she was startled for a moment. She was about to ask, but she saw the man looked her over quickly and asked in a deep voice, "How are you? Are you okay?"

Qiao Jingjing reacted, blinked her peach blossom eyes, and shook her head, "Nothing happened to me. But why is my husband here?"

Lu Xingzhi breathed a sigh of relief and walked forward slowly, "Qingyuan told me everything."

Qiao Jingjing looked embarrassed when she heard this.

But at that time, she didn't know the purpose of the eldest princess coming to her, and she was a little worried, so she casually told Qingyuan.

"I was... joking with her."

"It's okay." Lu Xing knew.

"Now that Mr. Lu is here, I don't need to send Mrs. Lu off anymore." At this time, Lu Jing said calmly.

Lu Xingzhi nodded, "Yeah."

After getting on the carriage, Qiao Jingjing suddenly lifted up her skirt.

When Lu Xingzhi saw this, his eyebrows jumped and he stretched out his hand to stop her, "What are you going to do, madam?"

Qiao Jingjing was stunned, "I didn't want to do anything."

Lu Xingzhijun looked a little uncomfortable. He glanced at her skirt and moved away, "Then why..."

Qiao Jingjing reacted when she saw this.

Her actions just now were indeed a bit inelegant and could easily lead to misunderstanding. But the problem is, she is still wearing trousers underneath.

She didn't speak, but silently reached her hand under her skirt.

Lu Xingzhi caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of his eye. The veins on his forehead jumped a few times, and his handsome face was full of astonishment.

After reacting, he pursed his dry lips and reminded tactfully, "Madam, this is on a carriage. It's really inappropriate for you to act like this..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw the girl take out something and hold it in front of him, shaking it, "I want to solve this."

Lu Xingzhi saw clearly what was in her hand, his expression relaxed, he calmly raised his sleeves and brushed his forehead.

Thinking of what he just said, Qiao Jingjing suddenly squinted her eyes and moved closer, "My husband just said that I was immodest. How could I be immodest?"

Lu Xingzhi: "..."

"Why don't you speak, husband?" Qiao Jingjing looked at him teasingly.

Lu Xingzhi's long eyelashes like crow feathers trembled slightly, pointed at the thing in her hand, and changed the subject: "What are you wearing these for?"

Qiao Jingjing looked at the kneepad in her hand and explained: "I thought I might be punished by kneeling when I went to the princess's mansion, so I tied this on my knee to protect my knee before setting off."

Lu Xingzhi understood and praised, "Madam is quite smart."

"That's right." Qiao Jingjing couldn't help but feel proud.

Lu Xingzhi paused and asked, "Then Princess, will you be punished by kneeling down?"

"Of course not." Qiao Jingjing shook her head.

"Then why did you stay in the eldest princess's mansion for so long?" Lu Xingzhi was puzzled.

"That's because the eldest princess asked me to play this with her." Qiao Jingjing said, taking out the playing cards from the purse at her waist.

Lu Xingzhi was surprised, "What is this?"

Qiao Jingjing explained to him.

Lu Xingzhi was surprised when he heard this. He reached for the playing cards and looked at them, "How did you do this?"

"I just thought about it myself." Qiao Jingjing said with a guilty conscience.

She originally didn't want to tell him about this, but even if she didn't tell him, sooner or later he would hear it from others.

Instead of letting him become suspicious of her, it would be better for her to explain herself earlier.

She said she figured it out by herself, and even though it was a bit strange, he had no way of verifying whether what she said was true.

"The eldest princess likes to play very much. If I hadn't resigned, she would have kept me to continue playing. However, I have to go to the eldest princess's mansion to play with her tomorrow afternoon," Qiao Jingjing said.

Surprise flashed across Lu Xingzhijun's face, "Is it so fun?"

"It's not bad. People who are just starting to play will find it very fun." Qiao Jingjing said.

Just like the eldest princess, when she came into contact with poker for the first time, she couldn't stop playing just playing Landlord.

"If my husband is interested, I can teach you." Qiao Jingjing said.

Lu Xingzhi was stunned for a moment and shook his head, "No need."

"It's very fun." Qiao Jingjing said seductively.

"Next time." Lu Xingzhi said, returning the playing cards to her.

Qiao Jingjing didn't force herself. After putting away the cards, she remembered something and asked, "By the way, the Duke of Qin's birthday tomorrow, the Duke of Qin's wife invited me to come to the house for a party. Did Butler Wang tell you about this?"

"Yes." Lu Xingzhi nodded, with a hint of solemnity on his handsome face, "I will accompany you to Duke Qin's birthday party tomorrow."

Hearing this, Qiao Jingjing blinked and pulled his sleeve, "Are you worried about me?"

Lu Xingzhi glanced down at her and pulled back his sleeves, "On the birthday of Duke Qin, I should come to congratulate him."

The implication is that you are overthinking.

Qiao Jingjing curled her lips.

But what Lu Xingzhi didn't say was that he had nothing to do with Duke Qin, and since it was just an ordinary birthday party, he actually didn't have to go.
