Tuoba Xiao didn't look at her at first, he turned around and passed her by.
Liu Qiaoer was surprised when she saw Tuoba Xiao take a few steps and then walk backwards.
"Qiao'er?"
Liu Qiaoer looked stern, staring with her big round eyes, and angrily said, "You got the wrong person."
After saying that, she turned and left, but she felt very amused in her heart. She finally had the chance to tease Tuoba Xiao.
Tuoba Xiao narrowed his beautiful peach blossom eyes slightly and rolled his eyeballs.
He would be able to recognize the person he had eaten and lived with for three years even if he turned into ashes.
But it was obvious that the other party was unwilling to recognize him.
He walked backwards two steps and came to Liu Qiao'er: "Princess Qingyue, the daughter of the Sixth Prince, good, the one to be married is you."
After saying that, he left first, leaving Liu Qiaoer confused, feeling as if she had been trapped.
In the simple and elegant courtyard, Lu Yunzheng got up early in the morning, practiced a set of boxing, returned to the room, washed and changed clothes.
This was an exercise he never stopped.
"Sir, I went to ask Doctor Zhu about Miss Liu's situation, but Doctor Zhu said that Miss Liu had already passed away, so I didn't need to ask anymore."
There was no woman serving Lu Yunzheng, it was always Qi Ze or he would do it himself.
Lu Yunzheng lowered his eyebrows, and his handsome face showed loneliness and frustration.
"It's been three years. I've been in Mobei for three years. She doesn't want to recognize me. I don't blame her. When I return to the capital this time, I will hand over the military power to the emperor. There will be plenty of time to find her."
Three years ago, Princess Mingxin shot Liu Qiaoer to death, but there was urgent military intelligence in Mobei.
Lu Yunzheng only had time to send Liu Qiaoer to Doctor Zhu of Yaowang Valley, and then he hurriedly led his troops away.
A year later, he saw Tuoba Xiao on the battlefield in Mobei.
But Tuoba Xiao told him that Liu Qiao'er was dead.
Lu Yunzheng didn't believe it. He wanted to see the person alive or the body if she was dead. He believed that Liu Qiaoer would not die so easily.
Qi Ze was surprised: "Sir, you want to hand over the military power?"
Obviously, this is an incredible thing, especially for the Lu family.
Of the four great families in the capital, only the Lu family is left. If it weren't for Lu Yunzheng's military merits, the Lu family would have been exiled by the emperor.
A year ago, when Zhao Ziyu ascended the throne, the first thing he investigated was the family of Taifu Lu.
When the crown prince was seriously ill, Master Lu not only did not help find a doctor, he even defected to the enemy, the Third Prince. After the Third Prince was killed by Zhao Ziyu, Master Lu's family was confiscated.
If it weren't for the fact that Lu Yunzheng also had the surname Lu, Zhao Ziyu would have wanted to implicate his entire clan.
When Zhao Ziyu ascended the throne, the capital was reshuffled. The four major families in the capital left and right, and apart from the royal relatives, the rest of the people in the capital were relatives of the emperor.
Zhao Ziyu liked to promote poor scholars. A new generation of gentlemen appointed new ministers. Everything in the capital needed to be rebuilt.
Lu Yunzheng didn't like fighting in the first place, because the court was too corrupt, he wanted to support a new emperor. Now that Zhao Ziyu is the emperor and the court has a new look, Lu Yunzheng's greatest wish is to travel around the world with the woman he loves.
This is Liu Qiaoer's wish, and also Lu Yunzheng's wish.
"The Zhenbei Army was never mine. General Zhenbei has no children, so it is only natural that the army should be returned to the court."
Qi Ze understood Lu Yunzheng's thoughts: "Young Master, you don't want to have anything to do with Princess Mingxin."
Lu Yunzheng's clear eyes were suddenly filled with resentment: "I didn't kill that vicious woman myself, which is already the greatest tolerance I have shown."
That year, he saw with his own eyes Princess Mingxin shooting Liu Qiaoer to death in the street, and the relationship between the two had already collapsed.
For three years, Lu Yunzheng had not seen Princess Mingxin and did not want to have anything to do with her, so he made a request as soon as he returned.
Return military power and cancel the engagement.
"By the way, is Yunqing back?"
After Zhao Ziyu ascended the throne, Lu Yunqing gradually handed over the business in Mobei to others. He returned to the capital to start over and do a good job in business.
His businesses now include grain stores, bookstores, rouge shops, and cloth shops.
There was an alley in the capital city that was bought by Lu Yunqing. He rented out all the shops in it except his own.
The business was growing bigger and bigger, but Lu Yunqing could clearly distinguish what was his and what was Liu Qiaoer's.
It’s just that Lu Yunqing went to Yuzhou before his elder brother came back.
Wang Boyan, the prefect of Yuzhou, reopened the canned sugar water business, and also opened a cloth shop and an embroidery shop. Lu Yunqing went to discuss cooperation with him.
Qi Ze: "I'll get the message back in the next two days."
Lu Yunzheng sighed faintly: "Maybe he is the only one who knows about Qiao'er's news."
Qi Ze was a little puzzled: "Why does he know about Miss Qiao'er's news?"
Lu Yunzheng smiled bitterly: "Qiao'er loves money. Yunqing has made a lot of money in the past few years. As long as she is still alive, she will definitely contact Yunqing."
Qi Ze thought about it and agreed: "Miss Qiao'er loves money the most. Those businesses are hers. Even during the war, she did not delay making money. She will definitely ask the second young master for it."
As he talked, he walked all the way to his parents' yard.
His father Lu Xiuzhi is now the Minister of Personnel, and his mother Madam Lu has also become a fourth-rank official. The maids serving her have been replaced with new ones, except for Aunt Sun.
As soon as Lu Yunzheng entered the door, Mrs. Lu came to greet him: "My son, come and have dinner together. Your father has been waiting for you for a long time."
Lu Yunzheng just glanced at her calmly and said, "No, I have an appointment. You guys can eat."
After a simple salute, Lu Yunzheng turned and left.
Mrs. Lu's hopeful eyes dimmed. The loss and sadness made her look much older.
"He hasn't been back for three years. Even after he came back, he refused to get close to me as his mother. He has two sons, but neither of them has started a family. He wants to end the Lu family."
Aunt Sun was helpless and advised: "If Madam had agreed to let the eldest son marry Miss Liu, maybe her grandson would have been able to help out."
When talking about Liu Qiaoer, Mrs. Lu still did not bow her head.
"She is just a maid, and she wants to be the daughter-in-law of our Lu family. She is not worthy. In my opinion, it is better for her to die. There are so many noble ladies in the capital, I will definitely choose a good one for my son."
Aunt Sun was scolded by Mrs. Lu and didn't want to talk.
She used to look down on Liu Qiaoer, but ever since Liu Qiaoer saved Lu Yunxi, she felt that status was not important and character was what mattered.
Knowing that his son Lu Yunqing was doing business, he once hinted to him that he could marry Liu Qiaoer if he was willing. Unfortunately, Lu Yunqing said that Liu Qiaoer liked his eldest brother, so he had no chance.
Now Lu Yunqing likes the maid Chunxiao, and she agrees even though Chunxiao was driven out by Madam Lu.
He also asked Lu Yunqing and Chunxiao to come back after the matter was settled, and it would be best if they brought the children back.
A year ago, Lu Yunqing actually brought his son and Chunxiao back.
Aunt Sun was afraid that Madam Lu would not agree, so she always let them live outside. Anyway, Lu Yunqing had money, so he could live freely outside without having to follow any rules.
Aunt Sun finally understood that the Lu family only needed Lu Yunzheng as an official. As long as they had money, they could live comfortably.
After serving Mrs. Lu a meal, she stood up and said goodbye: "Madam, I'm going home."
Mrs. Lu had a young maid by her side, so she didn't need to set any rules. She just waved her hand and let her go.
Aunt Sun went back to the yard, picked up a small bag, and happily went out through the side door.
