Lu Yu's brother-in-law Lu Yu was married to his daughter Xiao Jin for six years, finally became pregnant, and gave birth to a daughter in May this year.
Because Xiao Jin is weak, Lu Yu is the only one in the East Palace. This daughter is her only eldest daughter and the granddaughter of the emperor today.
With such a noble status, her Hundred Days Banquet was very grand, and the grace was displayed everywhere.
For Lu Yu's daughter's 100-day banquet, the Lu family must all go, and Li was six months pregnant, and her body was cumbersome, so she simply stayed at home for fear of the bumpy carriage back and forth.
After arriving at the East Palace, Xu Mu followed Ji's into the inner hall to visit Lu Yu and the children, while Lu Feng walked around with Lu Jun.
Lu Feng is slender and handsome, and she is the leader of this generation of young people. Many officials who have sons in their families and are friends with the East Palace admire her quite a lot. It’s a pity that the Lu family does not allow servants, and Lu Feng is not allowed to take servants. Feng has already engaged her cousin Xu Mu, which makes many people feel regretful.
Lu Feng walked around with Lu Jun, got to know some elders, and Lu Jun let her walk around at will.
There was still some time left before the banquet, and the people who came were either sitting in the main hall chatting, or gathered in the backyard garden to enjoy the flowers.
Donggong Lu Feng often came with her father, and was very familiar with this place. He easily touched the inner hall and wanted to go in and see the newly born younger sister.
When Xiao Jin came out of the inner hall, he happened to meet her, "Xiao Feng? Why didn't you accompany your mother in the front hall?"
Lu Feng smiled shyly, "I want to see my sister."
When it comes to her daughter, Xiao Jin's always pale complexion has become quite ruddy, her eyes are full of smiles, and she said to her: "Go, let your uncle hug Ruier to you."
The single name of the granddaughter of the emperor has the word "Rui", which was taken by the emperor himself by reading ancient books, which shows how much he loves her.
After Xiao Jin finished speaking, her daughter added another sentence, "Your father and Xu Mu are also inside. But Gu is going to entertain guests, so I won't accompany you in."
Lu Feng nodded and hummed, and after watching Xiao Jin leave, he entered the inner hall.
Seeing her coming, Mrs. Ji was stunned for a moment, and then she reprimanded her softly with a smile, "What are you doing here as a woman? Why don't you go out soon."
Lu Yu's body recovered very well after giving birth. Not only did his face not look haggard, but his face was raised to be rounder, and his appearance was five points similar to that of Lu Feng.
"Brother-in-law, what did you say she did?" Lu Yu was very happy to see his niece come over, pointed to Xu Mu who was standing beside him, and said, "My sister is in the arms of the candied fruit, if you want to hug her, you have to ask him to agree. "
Because Xu Mu couldn't have a child with Lu Feng in his last life, he liked children very much in this life. Now that he saw Xiao Rui who was soft and fragrant, he never let go.
"Lu Feng," Xu Mu saw Lu Feng approaching, and hurriedly offered her a treasure as if to show her the child in his arms, "Isn't it beautiful?"
As he said that, he tilted his arms happily and lowered his head to tease Xiao Rui in his arms.
The younger sister, who originally thought she was pretty, was praised by Xu Mu, and Lu Feng suddenly felt that she was not so pretty anymore.
Seeing the candied fruit being so close to his sister, Lu Feng felt a little bit in his heart, but she didn't say anything, but gently hugged Xiao Rui from his arms, handed it directly to Lu Yu who was sitting on the bed, and said to Xu Mu nonchalantly, "You don't. Are you going out for a walk?"
Before Xu Mu could react, the child in his arms had already been taken away. He glared at Lu Feng and muttered, "There are so many people outside, so I won't go out."
Seeing that he turned his head and wanted to reach out to hold the child in Lu Yu's arms, Lu Feng felt even more uncomfortable. The candied fruit used to stick to her, but now he doesn't want to go out with her!
Lu Feng quickly grabbed Xu Mu's fingers, pretended not to see his dissatisfied eyes, and turned to Ji's family and said, "Father, I'll take the candied fruit out to play for a while."
When Mr. Ji saw Lu Feng coming in, his eyes were on Xu Mu. He didn't come to see Ruier at all. He immediately smiled and waved his hands, letting the two go out together.
Even if the person in the inner hall was Lu Feng's uncle, she couldn't stay there for long.
Xu Mu was pulled out by Lu Feng, with a reluctance on his face, "It's fine if you talk to Xu Yusunyao outside yourself, why do you have to pull me out?"
Lu Feng wanted to say something to them, looked down at Xu Mu's face, and asked, "Why do you like children so much?"
After Li was pregnant, Xu Mu often went to accompany him, as if a flower grew on Li's belly, and could stare at him for a long time.
After coming out of the inner hall, Lu Feng took Xu Mu to find a pavilion with no one, let go of his hand and sat down, and asked him with some resentment, "If we get married and have children in the future, it will be irrelevant to me or not. What's the matter? You're not even happy to lead you out."
Hearing this, Xu Mu blinked twice, the corners of his mouth opened uncontrollably, he sat next to Lu Feng's arm, and asked her in a low voice, "Lu Feng, are you eating the child's vinegar?"
Lu Feng glanced at him sideways, but said nothing.
Xu Mu was even happier, he put his wrist on her arm, rested his chin on her shoulder, and said with a small face, "My father may give me a brother or sister in September, if you go there at that time. Frontier, when you come back, I may not stick with you anymore."
What he said was a hippie smile, but the meaning of exploration was more. He stared at Lu Feng's expression tightly. He frowned slightly after hearing her words, and his heart sank involuntarily, and buried his face in her. On her arm, the hand that was holding her clothes loosened a little weakly.
No matter in the last life or this life, Lu Feng hopes to gallop on the battlefield like her mother Lu Jun to defend the beam.
As an ordinary person or her friend, Xu Mu would admire her daughter's heart for the country, respect her choice, but as Lu Feng's husband, as someone who knew she died in battle, he couldn't convince him at all. Let her go.
As long as he thinks of Lu Feng going to the battlefield, Xu Mu's heart is in his throat and his hands are shaking.
"Candied fruit," Lu Feng didn't know how to answer Xu Mu's words. It was not the first time this year that he had tested his attitude towards expedition. Lu Feng sighed and asked him again, "What are you afraid of?"
Xu Mu pursed his lips, closed his eyes, and said silently, "I'm afraid you will die in the same battle as in your previous life..."
Putting his head on Lu Feng's arm, Xu Mu took her hand and placed it on his fast-beating chest, and said in a low voice, "I'm afraid that after you leave, you will be worried here."
With the back of his hand on his chest, his heart was beating fast, Lu Feng moved slightly, clenched Xu Mu's hand tightly, and for the first time opened the topic with him, "My mother would be afraid of going on a war, and my father would also be afraid. But if it's because of this The reason is that everyone in Daliang is unwilling to join the army and drive out foreign enemies. When the army of Dayu enters the country, we will still not be able to live a stable life."
Xu Mu's chest hurt when he heard her big reason. He didn't want to hear Lu Feng say this. Even if she coaxed him, it was better than reasoning with him clearly.
Seeing that he was silent, Lu Feng softened his voice and said, "Wait with your father and wait for my mother and I to come back. I haven't married you yet, so how could I not come back."
"Then what if you really can't come back?" Xu Mu threw Lu Feng's hand away, pushed her shoulder, and burst into tears, "Go on an expedition, if you die again in this life If you do, I will immediately pack up and remarry, so that I won't die with you again..."
"Why did I fall in love with you, a martial artist, isn't it bad to like a literati who dances and plays with ink..." His cry was indistinct, and Lu Feng listened to him without end, and looked at him in a daze.
Seeing Xu Mu's face full of tears and yet not allowing her to touch it, Lu Feng felt a little uncomfortable. He clenched his hands tightly on his knees and said seriously, "I will definitely come back... You are not allowed to remarry."
Xu Mu just wanted to scold her angrily, saying that you made such a promise in your last life, but when she heard the second half of her sentence, the words got stuck in her throat and couldn't come out.
Lu Feng looked serious, his eyes fixed on him like an eagle locking on his prey, and said to him, "You are not allowed to remarry."
Lu Feng felt that she would definitely come back from the expedition. Even if she couldn't come back, she selfishly didn't want others to touch her candied fruit.
Seeing that she took her angry words seriously, Xu Mu felt angry and distressed. He pulled his sleeves and wiped his tears, and muttered with drooping eyelids, "I didn't remarry, and I didn't remarry when you died."
He couldn't help crying again, and there was no scruples in his words, so he wanted to tell her his grievances and fears, "We didn't even have children when you died, and I couldn't find any support. How is it possible to live, how can you think about remarrying?"
"You said you would come back in winter, but it was only autumn when the news of your death came. You didn't do what you said, so how can I believe your words in my life." Xu Mu pulled Lu Feng's sleeve, a little broken. Cried: "Lu Feng, I'm timid, I don't even dare to wait for you at home now, for fear that you won't be able to come back again."
Xu Mu's words were endless, but Lu Feng listened quietly. She seemed to remember the bizarre dream she had on the first night she saw Xu Mu.
In the dream, the Lu mansion was completely white, Xu Mu ran out of the house with disheveled bare feet, crouched in the yard and called her...
And she seems to have died in battle.
Xu Mu's cry in his mind overlapped with the current one, and Lu Feng suddenly felt a little dazed, not knowing whether he was awake or in a dream.
Every time her dreams are fragments, but if they are connected, it seems that they can explain why Xu Mu knew her and why he insisted on calling her wife and master.
Lu Feng's heart trembled slightly, feeling a little unbelievable. He reached out to hold Xu Mu's hand and asked him in a hoarse voice, "Did I die once? When I attacked Dayu?"
Xu Mu's eyes widened when he heard the words. Even if he said that she died in battle just now, he did not say that she died while attacking Dayu.
Could it be…
Tears in Xu Mu's eyes blurred his vision, but he tried hard to look at Lu Feng's face, and asked her choked, "How did you know?"
Lu Feng lowered his eyes and smiled bitterly, "I dreamed of it."
