Chapter 137 Is it wrong?
The eagle player got his eyes burned by the eagle. I've never heard of Song Wei liking any other girl before, so why is he so obsessed with the girl in front of him?
Chu Mingzheng looked at it, and the sourness in his heart bubbled up.
The carriage was a bit cramped, and Lu Mingyang was constantly being stared at by a pair of large eyes. He felt a little uneasy: "Your Highness?"
"From now on, stay away from Song Wei." Chu Mingzheng coughed lightly and withdrew his gaze.
You stared at me for such a long time, just to say this?
But since he had just helped him, Lu Mingyang didn't feel comfortable talking back. He just said "oh" and stole a glance at him. Unexpectedly, this guy's profile was also so handsome.
"Your Highness!"
"Ok?"
"Are you familiar with the brothel's madam?"
"Lu Mingyang!"
Chu Mingzheng noticed she was peeking at him and was quietly posing in a cool angle. Suddenly hearing these words, he was furious: "In your eyes, I look like someone who visits a brothel?"
"No!" In fact, you have a face that looks like someone has been fooled.
However, at this time, Lu Mingyang's mind was still pounding. He just digested it in his heart, but on the surface he expressed his gratitude with great sincerity. In fact, he could see that he was helping him, helping him very attentively.
"There's no need to say thank you between us." Chu Mingzheng held her hand and placed it on his leg.
Lu Mingyang looked at the hand holding his and called out again, "Your Highness."
"Think it over first!" Chu Mingzheng said in a tone.
Cheapskate!
Lu Mingyang smiled, shook the hand that was holding his, and said, "I think you are different from before! You weren't as flamboyant as you are now!"
Chu Mingzheng's eyes looked somewhat ambiguous from the side.
Lu Mingyang knew he had misunderstood and hurriedly explained, "I was talking about your attitude towards Concubine Song and His Majesty."
"Little girl!" Chu Mingzheng pinched her rosy cheek in dissatisfaction, thought for a moment and said, "Yangyang, if you saw a big beast in the forest, what would you do?"
"A tiger!" Lu Mingyang said as a matter of course, "Of course it's hiding."
"What if it discovers you?" Chu Mingzheng asked.
"run?"
"You can't run away, even if you try your best?"
Lu Mingyang looked at his small body and smiled. "It seems that even if I try my best, it won't work. However, I can scare it with a stick, preferably one with thorns."
"Yes, it's the same in the palace!" Chu Mingzheng affirmed: "If you can't show weakness and let people ignore you, then show strength so that people won't dare to look down on you."
This was the first time Chu Mingzheng talked to her about such a sensitive topic, but at that moment, she was not afraid, but rather admired him and even yearned for him.
Fortunately, the carriage stopped quickly.
At the gate of Chengyang Marquis Mansion, Chu Mingzheng held her hand and refused to let go. "It's too late. It's too dangerous for me to go back alone. Can I stay overnight?"
"Are you still afraid of danger?"
After hesitating for a long time, Chu Mingzheng left alone in a carriage in shame.
In fact, it wasn't that she couldn't let him stay for one night, but she felt that there would be a bloody storm at dawn tomorrow. She didn't really have deep feelings for Lu Mingqin. She had tried to persuade him and helped him as much as she could, and she had no regrets.
But my eldest sister is different.
At dawn, Lu Mingyuan arrived at the Chengyang Marquis's residence. Lu Mingyang stood outside the ancestral hall, watching the two people inside. Lu Mingqin was kneeling, and Lu Mingyuan was standing.
"Are you really going to abandon the father who raised you for fifteen years for a man?"
Lu Mingqin cried, "Sister, I like Brother Yuanrui. I have liked him since I was a child."
"That's the murderer of your father!"
"What?" Lu Mingqin looked up in shock.
Lu Mingyuan looked at her father's name on the tablet and said for the last time, "If you go back to the Song family now, you will still be your father's daughter. If you want to have a child, I will help you raise it. If you don't want to have a child, I will find you a good family."
Lu Mingqin shook his head stubbornly.
Snap, a heavy slap.
"Get out! Get out of here today. From now on, whether you live or die, you will have nothing to do with my Chengyang Marquis Mansion." Lu Mingyuan turned around and left angrily.
Lu Mingqin covered her face, turned her head away in grievance, and cried, "Eldest sister, why did you blame me and not her when I did the same thing as Fourth sister?"
"Daughter, let's go!" Aunt Liu helped her daughter back to Qinfang Pavilion to pack up her things, and said sadly: "I didn't expect the eldest lady to be so cruel. I thought she could add some dowry for you."
Lu Mingqin was a little afraid of the unknown life and asked Aunt Liu: "Mother, did I do something wrong?"
"Daughter, you did the right thing, absolutely the right thing!"
Aunt Liu encouraged her: "The most important thing for a woman is to marry into a good family. Although she is only a concubine, she belongs to the Duke of Song's mansion and will be the future uncle of the emperor. The son you give birth to will be the eldest grandson of the Duke of Song's mansion and will have a bright future."
"But my eldest sister said that my mother's family is my only support?"
"One of them has a son who will inherit the title of Earl of Zhongxin, and the other has a husband who is a prince. Of course they say that. But do you have it? A woman relies on her husband and son. Everything else is secondary. Can you rely on two sisters who are not related by blood?"
Lu Mingqin followed her mother's instructions, touched her belly, and nodded heavily.
"Auntie, auntie!"
Chunxiang, who had gone to the Duke of Song's mansion to inquire about the news, hurried back and cried, "The people at the Duke of Song's mansion said that the mistress hasn't come in yet, so our fifth girl has to live in the manor outside the city first."
"Let's just stay outside the city!" Aunt Liu gritted her teeth, picked up the bag, and helped her daughter leave.
Lu Mingqin had been embroidering her own wedding dress since she was ten years old. But now that she was a concubine, she could not wear the beautiful red wedding dress, and she had no time to make new clothes. She only wore a crimson skirt and covered her face with a pear blossom fan.
At the door stood a shabby little red sedan chair, with two bearers and a steward from the Duke of Song's mansion.
Watching her daughter get into the sedan chair, Aunt Liu wiped away her tears and followed.
The steward stopped Aunt Liu and said, "Don't follow us. Our master has taken a concubine, but he doesn't have the money to support an idler."
But Aunt Liu couldn't bear to let her daughter go alone. Not only was she heartbroken, she also relied on her daughter to support her for the rest of her life. She hurriedly said, "I won't spend your money. I have my own money."
"What about them?"
The steward looked at the two people behind her, Concubine Liu and Lu Mingqin's personal maid. Lu Mingyang had given the two women's indentures to Concubine Liu.
Aunt Liu counted the silver in her pocket. Although the fourth lady had given her some silver, she couldn't afford to feed two more people, so she returned the indentures to them and said, "Don't go with us."
"Thank you, aunt. Thank you, aunt." The two nodded repeatedly. After the sedan chair went away, they looked at each other, returned to the Chengyang Marquis Mansion, and returned the indenture contract in their hands to the fourth girl.
They know very well where life is comfortable.
