marriage gentleman

Chapter 58

When Qi Guang woke up the next day, it was already high in the sun.

She yawned lazily.

What I have to say is that Lu Li really has a good eye. The mansion he chose is extremely quiet, and the maidservants and servants waiting outside seem to have been trained, comparable to the palace people in the palace.

It was the most comfortable night she had slept since leaving the palace.

Qi Guang sat up from the couch, he was too tired last night, so he didn't take a good look at her wing.Qi Guang rubbed his eyes and began to look around slowly.The decoration in the wing room is very similar to her sleeping hall, the mahogany carved and hollow table case, there is a gilt copper stove with peacock pattern on the case, and a beauty couch covered with tiger skin... Although it is not as good as the one in the palace, it is also very similar.

Jing Heng was able to tell Ming Qing to do these things well in such a short period of time, obviously it took a lot of thought.

At this time, the voice of a maidservant sounded.

"Madam, this servant is Zitong."

Qi Guang said: "Come in." When the words fell, a maidservant wearing a light purple skirt came in, holding a small copper basin in her hand, steaming from it.I only heard her say: "Madam, this servant is waiting for you to wash up."

Saying that, Zitong wrung out the veil, wiped Qi Guang's face carefully, and then handed over salt water.

After Qi Guang rinsed his mouth, Zi Tong said again: "Ma'am, breakfast is ready. Young Master is waiting for Madam in the side hall." After arriving in the side hall, Qi Guang saw Lu Li sitting at the table.He was neatly dressed, his body was slightly stained with dust, as if he had just come back from outside, and there was a faint trace of tiredness between his eyebrows and eyes.

Qi Guang watched carefully, and sat down slowly with Zitong's support.

She said, "You just came back from outside?"

Lu Li winked at Zitong, and the servants and servants who were waiting around left quietly.After closing the door of the side hall, Lu Lifang smiled at Qi Guang and said, "I was supposed to take care of you washing today, but I just moved to Hedu, and there are many things that need to be taken care of around me. I claim to the public that we are A couple who moved here from the capital, make a living as a merchant, my surname is Lu, and my name is Jing Heng, and your surname is Wen, and you used the alias you used to go on tour in incognito. Did you sleep well last night?"

Qi Guang said: "I always feel at ease when Jing Heng handles affairs. I slept well last night. The house you chose is very quiet."

Lu Li smiled and said, "When you finish your breakfast, I'll take you around the house."

"Alright."

After Qi Guang and Lu Li had breakfast together, Lu Li asked Zitong to get a fox fur and put it on for Qi Guang before he helped her out of the side hall.The two walked slowly to the long corridor, and Lu Li said as he walked, "I saw a plum forest in the outskirts of Hedu today. The plum blossoms are in full bloom, even more beautiful than those in the palace. After you recuperate , let’s go and see if we can pick it off and make plum cakes.”

Qi Guang said: "Maybe it's because I've been drinking anti-fetal drugs for the past few days, and I don't like it as much as before." She then said: "Jing Heng, you are the father of the child, you can think more about the child, But you don’t have to worry about me. I’m no longer the emperor, and the maidservant can do the grooming for me.”

Said, Qi Guang withdrew his hand.

She said: "The ice and snow have melted, and the promenade is not slippery. Although I am pregnant, I am not seven or eighty. I can walk slowly by myself."

As soon as the warmth in his hands disappeared, Lu Li's expression became a little stiff, gloomy.

After a while, he started to follow behind Qi Guang and said: "...OK."

The two walked silently for a while, and Qi Guang suddenly stopped.She turned her head and asked, "Where was the bamboo forest yesterday?"

Lu Li's expression moved slightly, he stepped forward in twos and threes, held Qi Guang's arm, and said, "The snow in the bamboo forest has not been cleared, I will help you go there." Qi Guang did not refuse this time, Lu Li An imperceptible smile flashed in his eyes.

When they reached the bamboo forest, as Lu Li said, there was still a lot of snow.

Qi Guang couldn't help asking: "Where's Alu, the boy who cleaned yesterday? How come there's still so much snow after sweeping all day?"

Lu Li summoned Ming Qing.

Ming Qing sighed: "It's a coincidence that Alu has been fine for the past few days, but he caught a cold last night. I was afraid that he would infect his wife, so I let him rest for a day. He will come back when he recovers. It’s worth it. I just ordered other servants and maidservants to come and clean it.”

Lu Li said: "I don't need to come here for the time being, Madam wants to appreciate the bamboo, so come and clean it at night."

He held Qi Guang's arm tightly, and said with a smile: "I'll help you go into the forest and have a look. I asked Mingqing to set up a small pavilion deep in the forest. When you want to paint in the future, you can directly use the small pavilion The pavilion is your quiet room when you are in the palace."

When Qi Guang heard this, he became interested.

Lu Li winked at Ming Qing.

Mingqing understood in an instant, smiled silently, then turned around and left the bamboo forest, not disturbing the relationship between the son and his wife anymore.The small pavilion in the forest is very elegant, with red brick tiles, white pillars, and two characters written on the plaque - Jingting.Qi Guang knew at a glance that it was written by Lu Li. After spending so long with him, she naturally recognized his handwriting.

Qi Guang frowned and smiled.

"The blue sky is far away, the green bamboo is near, and the artistic conception is so deep that even the quiet room in Chengqian Palace can't match it." If Jing Heng took a lot of thought on the decoration in the wing room before, now the quiet pavilion here is enough to catch a glimpse of him sincerity.

Qi Guang sighed: "Jing Heng, you really don't have to treat me..."

Before he could say "so good", he was interrupted by Lu Li.He said, "It's as sweet as sugar."

He didn't say much, just said four words.

His tone was so firm, so persistent, as if no matter what she said, he would not change his mind.

Qi Guang sighed again.

Lu Li said with a smile: "Don't sigh, the baby in your womb can hear it." After a slight pause, Lu Li said calmly: "Liu Quan told me that the baby is already conscious when it is in the womb. You can hear what people outside are saying. Although you don’t understand, you can hear it. For the sake of your child, don’t say such things in front of your child in the future, otherwise your child will feel that his parents are at odds and may stay in the I don't want to come out of my stomach..."

Qi Guang's complexion changed.

"really?"

Lu Li said seriously: "Liu Quan told me a few days ago, you can ask him when he comes over to get his pulse."

Qi Guang believed it to be true, and said, "It seems that we can no longer say these things in the future."

"Yes, I can't say any more."

Lu Li's eyes darkened slightly, and an imperceptible smile flashed by.

At this moment, a black shadow jumped out from nowhere and rushed towards Jingting with lightning speed.Qi Guang was taken aback, and before he had time to see the black shadow, there was a force coming from his waist.

She just felt dizzy.

After she realized it, she was already behind Lu Li.

And Lu Lizheng frowned slightly.

Qi Guang took a closer look, but it was a big black dog that was biting Lu Li's calf.The black dog seemed to have gone mad, biting tightly but refusing to let go.

Lu Li's voice was a little hoarse.

"You leave first, I will deal with it."

Qi Guang said: "I also have the power to protect myself." As soon as the words fell, Qi Guang broke a green bamboo and swung it vigorously towards the black dog's neck.Only then did the black dog let go, tilted his head, and fell to the ground.

Blood oozed from Lu Li's calf, staining his trouser legs red.

Qi Guang said: "You stay here, I'll call Ming Qing over." Unexpectedly, Lu Li grabbed her hand and said, "It's just a small injury, it's not a problem. There is snow on the ground, if it slips..."

Qi Guang shook his head and said, "Jing Heng, I'm not so fragile. The late Emperor never raised me as a girl. Now you have to listen to me. You stay here, and I'll call someone."

Lu Li seemed to want to say something, Qi Guang gave him a sideways glance.

"Don't refute!"

Qi Guang sighed silently in his heart.

After never becoming emperor, the number of times he was talked back became more and more!The baby in my belly, I have to learn from your mother in the future, and I have to show momentum when I speak!

Lu Li had no choice but to give up.

But there was a tinge of joy in his heart, he couldn't resist Qi Guang's appearance, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that his Qi Guang was different, a unique girl in the world.

He leaned on the stone table and sat down slowly.

The black dog on the ground was already dead, the stick just now directly hit its dead point, at this time white foam flowed out, gradually, it flowed all over the ground.

Lu Li frowned involuntarily, as if thinking of something, his eyes suddenly darkened.

Lu Li stretched out his hand to squeeze the white foam, put it under his nose and smell it.

His face suddenly changed.

He was very interested in medical herbs in the palace, and he followed Liu Quan and several other empresses in medicine for a while, and he knew the smell of white foam from the black dog all too well.

The black dog was obviously drugged.

What happened just now was not accidental, but... premeditated.
