Yuan Cixian got a satisfactory answer and finally let Lu Shiqing go. She specially put on her clothes and stood up, and helped the servants who were guarding the night to help him.

Lu Shiqing could not show off his feet before leaving Chang'an, so as not to pester him and go there, so he did not stop her, and saw her escorting him out of the mansion like a thief.

The next day, Yuan Cixian arranged a whole day of tactics and discussed seven escape routes with Zhuzhi and Shicui. After dinner, it was almost time for the family to stay together. Just as he was about to sneak away, Yuan Yizhi took him to accompany the chess.

At first she wanted to do something perfunctory, but she didn't expect that the game would last for an hour. My father was particularly excited, and even my mother and brother were watching the game enthusiastically. She took more than a hundred excuses to escape, and every time she spoke, they would be transferred to each other. Even if she got up to go to the toilet, she was accompanied by my mother, and naturally she ended in failure.

Yuan Cixian was not stupid either, so he naturally saw the truth. He thought that the plan was exposed and he could not go to the Lu Mansion, so he had to wink at Zhizhi and signaled her to go to Yongxingfang to send a message to Lu Shiqing and tell him not to wait.

When he came back from picking the branch, he was worried. Yuan Cixian felt something was wrong at first sight. She slipped out again using the excuse of going to the toilet, signaling her to come with her, and when she got outside, she asked her what had happened.

Before he could breathe evenly, he replied anxiously: "My lady, my maid went to tell Mr. Lu, but he didn't see anyone. Mrs. Lu said that he left Chang'an City before dawn this morning to go to work in the office."

Yuan Cixian was stunned and asked, "What important tolerance is that I have to do it on New Year's Eve?"

"I also find it strange. I think you must be curious, so I asked you a few more questions. Mrs. Lu said that this tolerance was sent down yesterday, but Mr. Lu did not explain the details, so he was very secretive."

"Is it sent down yesterday?" Yuan Cixian grabbed the key with one ear, frowned and thought.

Since that's the case, why didn't Lu Shiqing tell her last night, and even agreed to her stay up to the New Year.

Isn't this an obvious lie?

She turned her head quickly and then remembered more strange things. Looking back now, Lu Shiqing's behavior last night was indeed very abnormal. No matter how things like breaking into the boudoir night are not in line with his style, that night, his eyes and attitude of speaking were different from usual.

He seemed to have no mood to "fight" with her, mostly silent or obedient. He seemed to be... it seemed a little hard to say, and he struggled a little.

But she was eager to force him to propose marriage because she failed to arrest him for several consecutive days, and she didn't think much about it.

She connected all the strange stories of the past two days together with repeated recollections, and her heart thumped up, and suddenly turned her head and ran back to her father's study. As soon as she stepped into the door, she saw the family who had originally been talking and rustled and said something, and they all raised their eyes and looked at her nervously.

She held her hand on the door frame and looked at them straight: "Dad, brother, what have you hidden from me?"

Yuan Yi sighed and looked at Feng helplessly.

He knew how long it would take for Yuan Cixian to hide it. But in fact, as long as she didn't let her know the truth last night, it would be enough to endure this time. She could no longer catch up with Lu Shiqing.

Yuan Cixian's nails were tightly clasped against the door frame and continued to ask: "Where has Mr. Lu gone? Tell me."

Feng stood up and pulled her hand off to prevent her from hurting herself. Then he said, "There is a war in southern Yunnan, and he went to negotiate with Nanzhao and Tubo."

Yuan Cixian seemed to have not understood for a moment, and she laughed in surprise for a while, and couldn't believe it: "Who told him to go, saint?"

"It's his own meaning." Yuan Yi answered directly.

She pushed Feng's hand apart a little bit, stepped forward a little slow, and said word by word: "What do you mean?"

Yuan Yizhi remained silent and refused to answer.

Yuan Cixian suddenly laughed: "Where is that place, what kind of tiger and wolf are there? What kind of tiger and wolf will it be like to go alone? Others don't know, don't you know?" She seemed to have some understanding when she said this, "Or, it was just you who forced him to go? You don't want to ask him to marry me, and think he is not worth entrusting, so force him to prove it to you?"

"The purpose of the war in Nanzhao was to our Yuan family. In this battle, the prince wanted the saints to be more afraid of our Yuan family, and the Dazhou would eventually cut off their retreat one day. He went there, for the Yuan family and to alleviate the saints' concerns about you, but you stood by and watched?"

Seeing that his sister was terrible, Yuan Yu frowned and said, "Cixian, calm down."

Yuan Yi faced Leng Rushuang and looked at her and said, "Who said he went for the Yuan family? Southern Yunnan fell, and many people were in dire straits. Since he was a minister and caring about the world, he should go to save him without hesitation."

"Even so, there are many ways to save them, and there are many people in the court who can say good at fighting!" Yuan Cixian held the case with both hands, clasped the edge of the case tightly, and said with red eyes, "Why must it be him? Why must it be him who was born and die for Dazhou, and who went through fire and water?"

Yuan Yi suddenly stood up in anger: "Why can't it be him? As you said, others can die for Dazhou, why can't he be the only one?"

"Because..." Yuan Cixian was choked when asked, and suddenly her eyes became hot, and tears rolled out like a dam.

Yuan Yi sneered coldly: "I just pretend that these rebellious words have never been heard. If you turn around and think about it clearly, should you say it?" After that, he turned around and left.

Yuan Cixian stood there and took her sleeves to wipe her tears, but she wiped more and more and couldn't stop it.

Feng sighed, gave Yuan Yu a wink, signaled him to look at Yuan Yizhi, then grabbed Yuan Cixian's shoulder and patted him gently.

Yuan Cixian couldn't help it. He didn't know what was going on. He cried all the time. After holding it in for a while, he simply hugged Feng and cried, "My mother, I just don't want to, I just don't want him to go... It's not that I don't understand what my father said, it's not that I don't worry about the people in southern Yunnan, but he went to save them, who will save him?"

The more she cried, the more uncontrollable she said: "My mother, I feel sorry... I feel sorry... What if, what if, if he died in southern Yunnan? Mother, what should I do..."

Feng patted her back and said softly: "Yaoyao, southern Yunnan is very dangerous, but why can't you believe him? Your father believes in him, don't you?"

Yuan Cixian stuttered slightly and raised her head with thrusts.

Feng shaved the tip of her nose: "Your father went to the battlefield every now and then. When did you ever see your mother crying like this? It's not that my mother is not worried about him, but she just believes in him more."

"Southern Yunnan is a place of right and wrong, but my mother has always liked it because it is a place where your father protects his life again and again. Now in trouble in southern Yunnan, you say, how could your father stand by and watch over it? But he gave it to Mr. Lu. Isn't it because he has full confidence in him? In that case, why can't you trust your father and Mr. Lu?"

Yuan Cixian slowly stopped crying and calmed down with the sound of sobs.

"Yaoyao, my mother knows that you can't accept it for a while and want to find a way to vent, but don't hurt your father's heart. After crying, I'll apologize to him. Today is New Year's Eve."

Yuan Cixian nodded: "Mom, I know I'm wrong. I will apologize to my father." After she said that, she bit her lip, "But can you sleep with me today?"

Feng couldn't help laughing: "How old are you?"

She pursed: "I am more fragile than a three-year-old."

*

Yuan Cixian apologized to Yuan Yi overnight. After that, she snatched Feng away with confidence, but she couldn't rest at night. She slept and woke up from time to time, dreaming about the scene where Lu Shiqing broke into her boudoir again and again.

After she said the forced marriage, she heard him promise to marry her next time.

Then the scene changed, and the sky was filled with white paper money. She saw Lu Shuangyu standing in front of the funeral procession, holding a slender bamboo branch in her hand and crying, her eyes red and swollen.

She wanted to rush over to see who was inside the coffin, but she couldn't catch up. She heard the mourning sounds getting farther and farther away.

After repeating this several times, she broke out in cold sweat when she opened her eyes, as if she had seen an ominous sign. When she woke up the next morning, she found that the bedding was wet.

Maybe she cried in her dream.

Yuan Cixian had been depressed all night, and when he heard the New Year firecrackers in the neighborhood yard, he suddenly woke up and was excited by the cheerful noisy.

She couldn't catch up with Lu Shiqing, but she couldn't sit still like this and wait for death.

She thought about it for a while in the room, made up her mind, and suddenly ran out of the yard, knocked on Yuan Yizhi's door, and asked when she saw him, "Dad, I remember something. In the early years, the Great Zhou Dynasty had not yet become weak to the present level. Nanzhao occasionally paid tribute to the court, and sometimes you presented it on your behalf."

"Once, I saw a piece of uncensored jade the size of a fist in the tribute, but there was no record in the gift list, so I wanted to secretly intercept it as a toy. You said at that time that this uncensored jade is comparable to the He family's jade, and it is worthless and cannot be played by. The gift list was not recorded because it was used by the second prince of Nanzhao to please the saint in private."

The father and daughter did not have an overnight revenge, and Yuan Yizhi's anger had long since disappeared. Hearing the words, he thought seriously: "There is such a thing. What are you asking about this?"

"You think that if there is power, there is a struggle. Our Great Zhou was chaotic and chaotic. Can they avoid it by Nanzhao? The second prince of Nanzhao took a piece of unparalleled jade and secretly paid tribute to the prince's residence. Wouldn't he just want to please our saints and might one day gain the support of the Great Zhou?"

"This matter can prove his ambition, and it can also prove that Xiju is not clean. At that time, we were too lazy to get involved in their Nanzhao family affairs, so we chose to watch the wall. Now why not use this matter to remind Xiju to pay attention to the fire in his backyard?"

"What you mean is to send someone to give this piece of uncensored jade to Xiju to gain his slight favor for Mr. Lu. At least, the Nanzhao army would not open fire on Mr. Lu without saying a word?"

Yuan Cixian nodded: "But the question is, where did this piece of uncensored jade go after entering the palace?"

"My father sent someone to check it out."

Yuan Cixian returned to the yard and waited restlessly for the reply. After an hour, he heard the reward of picking branches: "My lady, there is news. The uncensored jade was made into a beast carving and placed in the imperial tomb. However, some scraps were left at that time, and the saint gave it to his children. One of them was made of a jade ring for Shao and Princess."

She suddenly stood up, pursed her lips, which had been dry because she had not had a good sleep all night, and said, "Go to the princess's house."
