Lu Yunzheng turned and left. When he passed by the window of Master Lu's house, he heard a complaint from Master Lu that seemed to be unintentional.
"A country woman with no knowledge at all. Liu Qiao'er is not an ordinary maid, but she looks down on him. If she had the ability to let her son really marry Princess Mingxin, that would be amazing."
Lu Yunzheng came out of Master Lu's house, looked up, and saw snowflakes flying all over the sky.
The new year is about to pass, and next year will be a brand new year.
My father's matter has been settled, Lu Yunzheng has passed the imperial examination and become a Jinshi, and although Mrs. Lu is sick, all good things are slowly happening.
Everything will just wait until spring comes, when the court will arrange positions for them. Then, no matter where he is, he can take Liu Qiaoer with him.
Under the snow-white cloak, wearing a green long coat, Lu Yunzheng was strolling on the street holding a paper umbrella, leaving his footprints step by step on the street that had just been covered with snow.
Mingxin asked Liu Qiaoer to have tea in the teahouse. Looking from the second-floor window, the handsome young nobleman slowly came into her sight.
"Qiao'er, I only heard that you saved Lu Yunzheng, but how did you know him before, and what kind of person is he?"
At this time, Lu Yunzheng had already arrived not far from the teahouse. As if he was summoned by something, he looked up tacitly and met Liu Qiaoer's smiling face. He suddenly smiled too.
Liu Qiaoer waved at him. Lu Yunzheng, who had originally planned to go home, hesitated for a moment and then slowly walked towards the teahouse.
"So, his personality is not so stable. At that time, I was just a maid in the Lu family, and he was the eldest son of Magistrate Lu, a handsome young man with fine clothes and a fast horse."
With all sincerity, he is like the sun, shining all the time.
But after experiencing hardships, Lu Yunzheng restrained his edge, gradually became calm, and there was a bit of helplessness in his bright eyes.
After Liu Qiaoer finished speaking, she glanced at Ming Xin opposite her. She knew that Ming Xin liked Lu Yunzheng in her heart, but she also knew that she could snatch him away with her status, but she didn't.
Mingxin held her chin and looked at the stairs. Lu Yunzheng walked up slowly, holding up his clothes. This man was so handsome. She liked his appearance, talent, and manners.
It’s just such a pity…
"Qiao'er, Princess Mingxin..."
Seeing that there were only two of them in the room, Lu Yunzheng no longer felt restrained and sat down next to Liu Qiaoer.
"It's snowing and cold, what are you wearing when you go out?"
Liu Qiaoer smiled slightly: "Dachang, don't worry, I will definitely not let myself down."
Lu Yunzheng nodded and wanted to grab Liu Qiaoer's hand from under the table, but after glancing at Princess Mingxin opposite him, he retracted his hand and just hooked Liu Qiaoer's sleeve with his little finger.
Liu Qiaoer lowered her eyes to take a look, then grabbed his without hesitation.
"Your hands are so cold."
As she spoke, Liu Qiaoer handed the hand warmer in her hand to him.
Lu Yunzheng coughed lightly: "It's okay, it's just that it's cloudy and snowy, so my legs hurt a little."
Lu Yunzheng had his leg broken in prison. Although it has healed now, the bone needs to be well cared for for a few years before it can fully recover.
However, Lu Yunzheng was worried about his father's affairs and did not take good care of his child. Now, his kung fu has recovered seven or eight times, and the injury on his leg has gradually become an old injury.
Liu Qiaoer pressed his leg with her hand: "Even if you are well, you still have to keep warm. Have you used the leggings I gave you?"
Lu Yunzheng lifted up his shirt, revealing his white leggings: "Very warm."
If I hadn't been standing for so long, it wouldn't have hurt so much.
Mingxin watched the interaction between the two and felt like she was a light bulb of several hundred watts, shining brightly.
He held his chin up speechlessly and continued to watch the people coming and going outside the window.
Suddenly, a young man wearing a white cloak, a red gown, and black hair like clouds appeared in Mingxin's sight.
The young man seemed to be holding some snacks in his hand and was walking on the street. Suddenly, a little beggar called out, "Sir, please give me something to eat."
The young man was stunned for a moment, then came to the little beggar and not only gave him all the snacks in his hand, but also felt around his body, found a purse, grabbed a few copper coins from it, and stuffed them all into the little beggar.
Seeing the little beggar impatiently opening the snack box and eating it ravenously, he touched the little beggar's head with pity, sighed slightly, shook his head gently, then got up and left.
Princess Mingxin was fascinated by what she saw, and Liu Qiaoer also saw it.
"He must be Pei Yuanhai, Pei Yuanshan's younger brother, who is also a Jinshi."
Princess Mingxin blushed, nodded, and drank a cup of tea to hide her shyness.
"Yes, he is Pei Yuanhai, a member of the Pei family of Luzhou."
Lu Yunzheng brought a snack to Liu Qiaoer and also saw Pei Yuanhai.
"Luzhou is a good place for saints to come. Pei Yuanshan is a Jinshi."
Princess Mingxin suddenly jumped up as if she remembered something: "I remember that I have something else to do at home, so I won't be a light bulb here anymore. I'm leaving."
After saying this, she left in a hurry, and her maid Shuangjiang followed her with a cloak in her hand.
Lu Yunzheng was slightly startled: "What is a light bulb?"
Liu Qiao'er didn't answer, but stretched her neck to look downstairs: "Ming Xin must have gone to create a chance encounter with Pei Yuanhai."
If you like a boy, go after him. Modern women who travel through time are all bold, and Princess Mingxin already has the capital to do so.
Lu Yunzheng also stretched his neck to take a look. Since there was no outsider around, he became bolder. He held Liu Qiaoer's hand with his backhand and rubbed it gently.
"Guess who saw me just now?"
Liu Qiaoer looked at Lu Yunzheng in astonishment: "Could it be Master Lu?"
It has to be said that Liu Qiaoer is indeed smart, and her sharpness even made Lu Yunzheng admire her.
"Smart." Lu Yunzheng pinched Liu Qiao'er's small upturned nose, "He told me to marry you as soon as possible because you are close to Prince Yi and are a close friend of Princess Mingxin."
Liu Qiaoer seemed to understand very well: "When these people arrange marriages, they always consider the value of utilization. Maybe in the eyes of Master Lu, you still have value to him, and I also have some value."
Lu Yunzheng did not say anything. Things in the capital were complicated. Even if he had his own sources of information and a group of assassins, they were nothing in such a huge city.
"It's snowing again."
"Yeah, it would be best if we could have a hot pot at this time. It's really not easy to drink tea and chat together like we are doing."
"Steal a little time to relax from busy life."
Liu Qiaoer looked downstairs and saw that Princess Mingxin had indeed chased out and met Pei Yuanhai by chance. It was unknown what they talked about, but Pei Yuanhai and Mingxin shared an umbrella and walked on the street, leaving people with a beautiful back view.
But at this moment, a fast horse rushed through the crowd, shouting.
"Excuse me, excuse me, express delivery of eight hundred miles."
Everyone was shocked by the news.
The urgent message came in such a hurry. Did something bad happen there
Lu Yunzheng also stood up: "What's going on?"
Less than half an hour later, tragic news came from the palace.
There was a snowstorm in Qingzhou in the north, and a large number of refugees were left homeless. The prefect was unable to provide disaster relief, and the refugees started a riot.
