18.018

It was dark and the city gates had already been closed. Most people could only choose to go to Beijing the next morning. However, as the Minister of War, Lu Zhan, a celebrity in front of the emperor, asked the emperor for a love affair, and the matter was resolved.

The carriage slowly approached, and the gatekeepers on the city tower saw Lu Zhan and Chu Xing riding on the horse, and without saying a word, they quickly opened the city gate.

There was no one on the street at night. Two quarters of an hour later, the carriage stopped in front of the Lu Mansion. Lu Zhan and Chu Xing dismounted together. The former walked to the carriage, lifted the curtain, and saw that his granddaughter was still asleep, lying in his father's arms.

"Give it to me." Lu Zhan whispered. When he learned that his granddaughter had been kidnapped, Lu Zhan immediately led a team of officers and soldiers to Anguo Temple to save his granddaughter. His son was blind and his granddaughter had another bad fortune. Lu Zhan dared not even think about it.

It was inconvenient to get off the carriage with her daughter in her arms. Lu Rong did not show off any more. With the help of his wife Xiao, he carefully sent her daughter over. Although they tried not to disturb Lu Mingyu, Lu Mingyu, who was not sleeping soundly, woke up. He opened his eyes and met his grandfather's majestic and cold face. He was illuminated by the light and could not tell whether it was a dream.

The little granddaughter was confused, Lu Zhan was as soft as water, walked away two steps and asked his granddaughter with a smile: "A Nuan wakes up? Are you cold?" In fact, he wanted to ask his granddaughter even more if he was afraid, but the matter was over, so he should not mention it. The child is very forgetful and may have forgotten after sleeping.

The outside of the car was much colder than inside the carriage. Lu Mingyu's sleepiness gradually faded away. He looked at the cold star above his head and slowly remembered the daytime events. Thinking about his grandfather actually came to pick her up home in person. He was still holding her at this moment, and his parents got off the car, all of whom were close relatives. On the cold night, Lu Mingyu felt warm in his heart.

In order to reassure the family, Lu Mingyu leaned on his grandfather's shoulder coquettishly and yawned deliberately: "Grandfather, I'm so hungry..."

Lu Zhan couldn't help laughing, and Lu Rong and his wife were also amused by their daughter's cute appearance and raised their lips.

"Master Lu, Third Master, Third Lady, it's not too early, you can go in quickly, I'll go home too."

A familiar voice suddenly came from behind him. Lu Mingyu was shocked, and his little head poked out from his cloak and looked over there. Two big red lanterns in front of the door hung high, making her face rosy and delicate, and her black and moist eyes still had a bit of sleepiness. Chu Xing looked at Lu Mingyu like this, and then recalled Lu Mingyu's soft and delicate voice just now, and couldn't help but laugh at herself in her heart.

If the younger brother and sister-in-law died like him, how could they do such innocent and childish behavior? It seems that the younger brother and sister have been well-behaved and sensible since childhood and are smarter than ordinary children. In fact, it is not surprising that Mr. Lu was once known as a child prodigy, and the third wife was even a talented woman praised by the late empress dowager. With such parents, how can the younger brother and sister not be outstanding?

"Shijin, don't rush to leave. Go in and have a cup of tea to warm your body." Xiao walked over and invited sincerely.

Lu Zhan also advised Chu Xing to go in and sit for a while.

Chu Xing shook his head and said, "What happened to the Fourth Girl, the old ladies and others in the mansion must be anxious. It is important for you to take care of the Fourth Girl. I will go home and report my safety to my grandparents first, and come to the mansion to bother you if you have time another day."

Just as Lu Zhan was about to stay again, Zhu heard the news and led the Lu family members to come out in a mighty manner. Lu Zhan knew that it was indeed not suitable for entertaining guests at this time, so he told Chu Xing to walk slowly. After saying that, he quietly pinched his granddaughter's arm through the cloak and whispered in a low voice, "A Nuan said goodbye to your cousin's uncle."

This is the most basic etiquette. Lu Mingyu looked at Chu Xing and said sincerely: "Cousin walk slowly, and I will thank you when my feet are ready."

Chu Xing smiled faintly, bowed to Zhu, then walked to his horse and turned over.

"A Nuan is okay?" The guest left, and Zhu first rushed to his granddaughter and asked with his granddaughter's small hand. The eldest lady, the second lady, Lu Jinyu, and the little girls Lu Yun were also looking at Lu Mingyu with concern. The men stood a little further.

They were all relatives, Lu Mingyu smiled and said, "It's okay..." Before he finished speaking, he quickly turned his head and yawned uncontrollably.

Lu Zhan laughed and blew his granddaughter, "Okay, we A Nuan are hungry, go to have dinner first, and go to bed after dinner."

Lu Mingyu lay awkwardly on his grandfather's shoulder. Xiao from behind supported Lu Rong and looked at his cute daughter who was surrounded by everyone in front of him. He felt that she seemed to have died once today, and now she has truly come back to life.

Lu Zhan brought his granddaughter back to his and Zhu's yard. He was worried that there would be noisy people to disturb his granddaughter. Lu Zhan asked the other three families to return to his yard for dinner and went to visit his granddaughter tomorrow, leaving only Lu Rong and his wife. Everyone dispersed, and Lu Zhan called for a doctor in the mansion to have already invited the doctor to the mansion to check his granddaughter's foot injury while the maids were serving meals.

"Sir, the fourth girl twisted her foot. Fortunately, her injury was not serious and she could walk around after two days of rest." The doctor quickly checked her injuries and said to Lu Zhan in a relaxed tone.

Lu Zhan nodded and waited for the doctor to deal with the minor injuries on his neck for his granddaughter, Lu Zhan ordered someone to take the doctor to prescribe the medicine, and then picked up his granddaughter to have dinner. Lu Mingyu had never been hugged by his elders so frequently, and was embarrassed and enjoyed it very much. The moment he was placed on the chair by his grandfather, Lu Mingyu mustered up the courage to look at his grandfather's majestic tiger eyes, and suddenly he was no longer afraid.

What's the matter with her grandfather being so nice to her?

"A Nuan, drink some chicken soup first and be hot." Zhu personally scooped a bowl of hot chicken soup for his granddaughter and placed it in front of him.

"Thank you grandmother." Lu Mingyu happily lowered her head to drink the soup.

"A Nuan eats a pig's trotter, this is a supplement." Before he finished drinking the soup, Lu Zhan picked up a stewed pig's trotter over there.

Lu Mingyu quickly thanked his grandfather again.

On the opposite side, Xiao ate her own food silently, occasionally glanced at her in-laws sitting on both sides of her daughter, and felt sad. Her daughter was frightened, and she and her husband wanted to comfort her daughter well, but their parents-in-law didn't give them a chance at all. They were so nice to their daughter, but they seemed to be their parents.

Lu Rong could not see his parents' attentiveness to his daughter, but the opportunity to coax his daughter was snatched away. He also had a secret chest tightness and could not speak up to rob his daughter. He could only speed up the food and planned to take his daughter back to their third room early. After taking a few bites, he suddenly heard the hurried footsteps outside. Lu Rong's expression changed slightly and he slowly put down his chopsticks.

"Master, Madam, Prince is here."

The footsteps stopped outside the door, and the servant reported in a hurry, panting, as if something was chasing him from behind.

Grandpa is here?

Lu Mingyu raised his head in surprise. Xiao was expressionless across from him. Lu Rong stood up politely, waiting to welcome his father-in-law. Lu Zhan was dissatisfied with King Zhuang disturbing the family for dinner and did not want to welcome him, but he could not resist being the prince. Due to his superiority, he had to wipe his mouth and get up with his wife to leave his seat.

Lu Mingyu also remembered that Lu Zhan pressed his granddaughter's shoulder, "A Nuan's feet twisted, don't be polite to your grandfather."

Lu Mingyu thought about her grandfather’s kindness to her and nodded with a smile.

Then Lu Zhan led his wife and daughter-in-law to welcome guests. As soon as he stepped out of the main hall, a figure walked over from the corridor and asked them loudly, "A Nuan is back? I heard that A Nuan is twisting her feet? Which bear heart and leopard dares to hijack my granddaughter?"

"Prince, don't worry, A Nuan's foot injury is not serious." Lu Zhan bent down slightly and said.

King Zhuang didn't even look at him, and looked at his daughter Xiao with guilt, "Xianxian, I came as soon as my father got the news. I also wanted to come over to Jian, but the emperor sent us to Pingxian County to provide disaster relief, and both of them left." This year, there have been blizzards in Pingxian, and disaster victims have frequently frozen to death.

"I am sorry for my father." Xiao lowered his eyes and said.

King Zhuang had long been accustomed to his daughter's indifference and was anxious to meet his granddaughter, so he ran to the main hall first.

"Grandpa." Lu Mingyu said with a smile, looking at her grandfather who had met again after a long time without blinking. Her grandfather was famously afraid of her. It is said that when the old princess asked him to go east, he did not dare to go west, and he neglected her grandmother because of this. His mother and uncle have been for many years. Later, when the old princess went, his grandfather tried his best to make up for the family that he had treated unfairly.

Lu Mingyu had never seen her grandfather who neglected her mother. Since she was born, her grandfather held her in her palm and carefully tried to please her. The elders were kind to her, and Lu Mingyu instinctively wanted to get close to her. Due to her mother's attitude, she hesitated what to do. It was her mother who taught her to get along with her grandfather. She also said that she did not hate her grandfather before her death, and she did not hate her, but she just couldn't get close to her, but those had nothing to do with her granddaughter.

"Which foot of A Nuan was injured?" King Zhuang sat down at Lu Zhan's position just now, and looked at his granddaughter carefully.

Lu Mingyu raised his left foot and showed it to him, and medicine had been applied to it.

King Zhuang was a little relieved and asked what happened during the day.

Lu Mingyu didn't want to say anything anymore, and asked him with a smile if he had had supper. King Zhuang looked at the dining table and couldn't help swallowing. When he heard that something happened to his granddaughter, he rushed back immediately, where could he have time to have supper.

"If the prince doesn't dislike you, I'll ask someone to add some dishes and chopsticks to you?" Lu Zhan said warmly.

"It's all a family, what's there to dislike?" King Zhuang didn't care much. After saying that, he pushed Lu Zhan's chair to the side. He pulled him from the side and wanted to sit next to his granddaughter. In this way, Lu Zhan's face sank faintly, but he had no reason to object, so he had to suppress his unhappiness and sit down.

As the one who was rushing to love by the elders, Lu Mingyu did not notice the elders' thoughts. While busy eating the dishes that her grandfather and grandfather picked up for her, she smiled and listened to the elders' words.

"A Nuan is sleepy?"

Lu Rong was inconvenient to remind his father-in-law to return to the royal palace. Xiao did not have that concern. After drinking tea after dinner, she asked with concern.

Lu Mingyu understood what his mother meant, pretended to yawn again, and looked sleepy.

Lu Zhan and King Zhuang were reluctant to part with the little girl, but Lu Mingyu was trapped, so the two naturally put Lu Mingyu's needs first. Lu Zhan asked his son and daughter-in-law to take good care of their granddaughter. King Zhuang did not dare to give any instructions to his daughter, so he pinched Lu Mingyu's face, smiled and coaxed his granddaughter to cover his quilt at night, and promised that he would come tomorrow.

"Grandpa, walk slowly." Lu Mingyu leaned in his father's arms and obediently said goodbye to his grandfather.

King Zhuang said reluctantly and walked back and turned around.

After seeing off his grandfather, Lu Mingyu said goodbye to his grandfather and grandmother.

Finally returning to the third room, Lu Mingyu was really sleepy. Listening to her parents' concerns about her well-being, her eyelids became heavier and heavier.

Xiao felt sorry for his daughter. Seeing that her daughter closed her eyes, she whispered to her husband: "I'll sleep with A Nuan tonight, you can go back by yourself."

She was afraid that her daughter would have nightmares.

Lu Rong was silent, but a trace of unconscious grievance appeared on his face.
