Chapter 66 Intersection (12)
Ling Mengqi suddenly hated himself incomparably, and also hated time, hated his own nothingness and powerlessness, hated time why he didn't let them meet earlier, so that he didn't say he participated in Lu Mingxuan's life, at least he could know about her past life What happened in the end, in short, it is better than knowing nothing now and being strong.

However, Ling Mengqi's regret did not last long, and was suddenly interrupted by Lu Mingxuan: "Okay, let's not talk about these things, it will affect everyone's mood in vain. By the way, Brother Ling, before I've always wanted to ask you, your martial art looks very good, who did you learn it from? To be honest, don't be angry, I think based on your foundation, I'm afraid it will not be easy to get an official through the imperial examination. What's more, even if you succeed, I'm afraid you will be old, isn't there a saying called "fifty young Jinshi, thirty old Mingjing", have you ever thought that maybe you can go another way?"

These days, Lu Mingxuan has learned something about Ling Mengqi's lack of talent in reading. I heard that the master of the Duke's Mansion would rather face Lu Wenyun, who is only six years old, than spend more time on Ling Mengqi , that's why she said this.

another way?For the time being, Ling Mengqi couldn't care less about what kind of danger Lu Mingxuan was in. He frowned and said, "I learned my martial arts secretly from an old nursing school at home. It's still so-so. I also thought about relying on this martial arts To earn a future, but..."

He said with a wry smile, "But my father said that our Ling family has been scholarly for generations, not only refused to go to the Linzhou Guard to recommend me as a security, but greeted the Commander of the Guard, and would never accept me without him nodding, otherwise I also won't...have nowhere to go, and go to Beijing to join the Duke's Mansion."

Lu Mingxuan really didn't know what to say, she simply didn't understand how there could be a father like Marquis Guangping in the world, since he didn't like Ling Mengqi, since he had ignored Ling Mengqi for more than ten years, Then why don't you just ignore it and let him earn a future for himself with his own ability?He neither wants to find a future for his son, nor lets his son fight for a future. What exactly does he want to do?And why did he let this son come into this world? Why didn't he strangle him to death right after he was born?
Apart from being mentally ill, Lu Mingxuan really can't think of a second reason why the Marquis of Guangping would treat Ling Mengqi like this. Apart from being unbelievable, there is also a heart full of regret. I knew she shouldn't have mentioned this topic just to change the topic. Well, if Ling Mengqi couldn't find a way out in Linzhou, how could he come to Beijing?Which pot I choose not to open and which pot to lift, I really have enough mouths!

In the following time, the two people, each with regrets and worries, did not speak any more. Fortunately, Danqing made tea and came back with some snacks. Lu Mingxuan, who wrote the book, left first, leaving Ling Mengqi alone to look for the book she was looking for, but her heart had already flown somewhere...

March 35th is Mrs. Lu's [-]th birthday. Although it's not a whole life, her parents-in-law are still alive. Normally, Mrs. Lu shouldn't celebrate her birthday, but Mrs. Lu personally sent a message. Mrs. Lu has worked hard as a housekeeper. It's time to have a few tables of wine with her and have a good time with a play for a day.

What's more, the empress of the palace gave her birthday gift to her younger sister early in the morning. After hearing the news, those nobles from Kyoto who had contacts with Dingguo's mansion all came to congratulate Mrs. Lu on her birthday. Well, on that day, there are still fifteen tables in the inner courtyard of the Duke's Mansion, and a stage is set up across the waterside pavilion for singing, which is lively and festive.

Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu kowtowed to Mrs. Lu to celebrate her birthday, and presented the birthday gifts of the two sisters—four pairs of shoes embroidered with five bats each, meaning "Five Blessings", and returned to stand behind Mrs. Lu, Did not take the opportunity to show any limelight.

This made Mrs. Lu very satisfied, especially after seeing the simple and elegant makeup of the two, because Mrs. Lu knew in advance that her nephew, who is also the current eldest prince, would come to celebrate her birthday later, At that time, if her daughter's limelight is robbed by two side girls, she will definitely die of embarrassment; looking at Lu Mingya, who is dressed up in fancy clothes, Mrs. Lu can't help but tighten the handkerchief in her hand. I don't know when the First Prince will come, but who is she trying to show such a charming look?I don't even think about it, which family's wife and grandma would like a foxy girl like her?If her daughter's good deeds are ruined, let's see if she doesn't skin her!
"Mrs. An Guogong brought the second and fourth wives and grandmas to—"

"Mrs. Xinyang Hou brought grandma and ladies to—"

The guests are still arriving one after another. Lu Mingfu looked at Lu Mingfeng who greeted this one and took care of that one like wearing flowers in the crowd, but did not show any panic at all. She couldn't help but lowered her voice and sighed to Lu Mingxuan: "Young lady is really capable. If I can be half as capable as the eldest girl, I will be satisfied!"

Before Lu Mingxuan could answer, Old Madam Lu who was sitting on the couch smiled and said, "Once you have seen many things, you will naturally be as capable as your elder sister."

"No matter how many things we have seen, we will definitely not be as good as big sister." Lu Mingxuan said without thinking. Lu Mingfeng is the eldest daughter of the Dingguo government who has carefully cultivated and placed high hopes on her. Even Lu Mingzhu is even worse. One piece of her, let alone the two of them?

Mrs. Lu said with a smile: "You don't have to rush to belittle yourself. Besides, Chunlan is as good as Chunlan, and Qiuju is as good as Qiuju. In many cases, the two cannot be compared."

Lu Mingxuan smiled and said: "We are not belittling ourselves, but telling the truth, you old man..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly heard someone singing outside the door: "Mrs. Chang Guogong and the young ladies are here—" The words that were not finished immediately stopped As if stuck in the throat, I can’t speak anymore, only one thought remains in my mind, how could Mrs. He come? Didn’t everyone from Changguo’s mansion come when Dingguo’s mansion invited New Year’s wine? Why are you here today? up?

For a moment, I felt my hands and feet were cold, my whole body was stiff, and I even forgot where I was.

It was still Lu Mingfu's voice that rang in my ears: "I didn't expect Mrs. Chang Guogong to be so beautiful. No wonder she would give birth to a son like Mr. He, who is known as one of the 'Twin Walls of the Capital'. I don't know what Mr. He will be like." His beauty is peerless, can't he compare to Young Master Ling?"

Lu Mingxuan came back to her senses, and although she echoed: "Yeah, I didn't expect Mrs. He to be so beautiful." But she couldn't help but sneer in her heart. Lu Mingfu only saw Mrs. He's beautiful appearance, and then How can one know how cruel and dark the heart is under the beautiful appearance?If she found out, would she still praise the latter like this?As for He Zhixing, he looks like a dog, but in her opinion, he is not even worthy of picking up Ling Mengqi's shoes!
