Reborn group favorite: The prince and I are enemies

When Lu Mingyu returned to Taishu's house, Changsun Tao had not returned from his trip.

She summoned Manager Lu and ordered: "Qin Sima's wife has just passed away. Please prepare a funeral gift and ask Cang Wu to deliver it in my name and His Highness's name."

"As for the specifications, we don't need to be pretentious. Mrs. Qin left suddenly. The Qin family must not have prepared many things, so the gifts given are mainly based on actual needs."

"In addition, bring a few more capable people to serve Qin Sima. Qin Sima's family is kind to me and His Highness, so everything must be done properly."

Manager Lu is a prudent person. As long as Lu Mingyu gives orders, he knows what to do and immediately takes orders to do it.

After Manager Lu left, Lu Mingyu called Lu Yi in front of him: "Don't be busy yet. I have something to tell you."

Lu Yi knelt down with a bang, looking panicked: "Mother, what mistake did this slave make?"

Lu Mingyu shook his head and bent down to help her up: "You didn't make a mistake. I just want to talk to you about what's on my mind."

Only then did Lu Yi feel relieved: "My dear, please speak."

Lu Mingyu said: "Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, we have been master and servant for more than three years. You have helped me a lot during these days."

"Especially when Zhaohua and I were away, you took good care of my mother. I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart."

"You are also very capable and can do everything properly and meticulously, so I rely on you and trust you."

"After Xiaoqian got married, you were the only one left by my side. I was increasingly reluctant to let you go, so I kept delaying your marriage."

"But since I took this trip just now, I realized that accidents in life can come at any time, so I can't hold you back any longer to avoid leaving irreparable regrets."

Lu Yi shook his head quickly: "Mother, I don't want to leave you either."

Lu Mingyu showed a calm smile: "Lu Yi, listen to me first."

Then, Lu Mingyu continued: "Let me ask you, Cang Wu, Cang He and Ah Liu, who do you like more among these three?"

Lu Yi's voice suddenly became very low: "Don't you already know it?"

Lu Mingyu asked her: "Are you referring to Ah Liu?"

Lu Yi lowered his head: "Yes..."

Lu Mingyu asked deliberately: "The two commanders Cang Wu and Cang He, no matter who they are, are majestic in appearance, good at martial arts, and have good personalities. They are the best candidates for a good husband."

"Why do you like that ugly and snarky Ah Liu? You're not being fed some ecstasy soup, are you?"

Lu Yi shook his head: "My dear, this slave does this voluntarily. Ah Liu is indeed very annoying. He will chatter around him whenever he encounters her. He is as annoying as a mosquito."

"But this slave is relatively taciturn and doesn't like to talk much. If it were someone else, over time, they might not be close to this slave."

"But Ah Liu always takes the trouble. When I am with him, I am very relaxed and at ease. Even if I don't talk, I don't worry that he will be bored."

"He is undoubtedly fun to be with, and he is also very kind to slaves and is willing to give his most precious things to slaves."

"I believe that no man should treat me better than him."

Lu Mingyu said: "Did you choose him because he is good to you, or because you like him? If the two are separated, there is a difference."

Lu Yi was silent for a moment, and then said: "My dear, I have both."

Lu Mingyu smiled and said: "In that case, then I will make the decision for you to marry him."

With that said, Lu Mingyu stood up, took out a box from the cabinet, and handed it to Lu Yi: "Open it and take a look."

Lu Yi opened the box and found several pieces of paper neatly stacked inside. She unfolded them one by one, and just the first one made her eyes red: "Mother, this is..."

Lu Mingyu said: "This is the document to free you. You are a palace maid, and I am not qualified to release you, so I went to the palace to get this document."

"If you take it to the government to register it, you can regain your freedom. From now on, you will no longer be a slave, but a free man."

Lu Yi knelt down in front of Lu Mingyu and said, "Madam, do you no longer want to be a slave?"

Lu Mingyu said: "Look at the second picture first."

Lu Yi unfolded the second piece of paper and looked at it, puzzled: "Mother, is this...?"

Lu Mingyu said: "This is the title deed of a house. If you don't have a house, how can you settle down? This is one of the dowries I gave you."

"Although it is only a small courtyard with two entrances, it must be enough for you and Ah Liu to live there."

"The following are the lists. One is a dowry list. When you get married, the government will prepare a dowry for you according to this list."

"One is the receipt for the noodle. You can take it to Debao Zhai to receive six sets of noodle. One set each of gold, silver, jade, ruby, sapphire, and emerald. This is a wedding gift from His Highness and I to you."

"The next one is a [-]-tael silver note. My daughter's family must have their own money. If Ah Liu doesn't give you money to spend in the future, you will spend it yourself."

"The last one is the receipt for each piece of furniture. With it, you and Ah Liu's little home can be decorated warm and comfortable."

Lu Yi held the box, it was heavy, as if there was something pressing on her heart, and it was heavy.

A dowry of this size would not be so generous for a woman married to a fourth-rank official.

With tears streaming down her face, she said, "My dear, how can this slave take such a valuable thing?"

Lu Mingyu sighed: "This is also my first time preparing a dowry. There must be many imperfections. I'm worried that I won't have enough for you."

Lu Yi put down the box and kowtowed three times: "Thank you so much for your kindness! I can't repay you in return."

Lu Mingyu said: "Actually, it's not me you should thank, but my mother. It was her who told me more than once that I must marry you in style."

"My mother also told me that when Zhaohua and I were not in the house, you were the pillar of support for her and Xiao Qian. My mother remembers this kindness, and all I did was express my gratitude."

Lu Yi could not speak for a long time, but could only kowtow to Lu Mingyu.

Lu Mingyu helped her up and said softly: "Lu Yi, I really can't let you go, but I hope you are happy and live a harmonious life, so that we can live up to our fate as master and servant."

"After you get married to Ah Liu, you can choose to hire some servants in his family and live the life of a wife."

"Of course, if you are willing, I hope you can stay and continue to help me. I will set aside a separate small courtyard for you and Ah Liu to live, so that you can come to my place conveniently."

Lu Yi quickly said: "I am willing to serve you!"

Lu Mingyu said: "Don't answer in a hurry. You and Ah Liu need to discuss this. When you think about it clearly, you can talk to me again."

"It's not a good time to hold weddings in June. You still have time to think about it and think about it carefully to avoid regrets in the future."

Lu Yi nodded solemnly: "Your Majesty is so kind to me, and I will never be able to repay you in this life."

Lu Mingyu patted her hand: "Okay, how we got along in the past will be how we get along in the future. Don't feel bad about this."

"I did this to make you happy, not to make you grateful, you know?"

Lu Yi burst into tears: "I know this."

Lu Mingyu smiled: "Why cry at this happy event, silly girl, go and tell Madam the good news, she will definitely be very happy."

Lu Yi gave another big salute and then left with the box in his arms.

Lu Mingyu was just about to call Ah Liu for questioning, but the boy came over on his own initiative: "Mother, something happened over there with Miss Xiao Qian. Go and have a look."

Lu Mingyu was shocked: "What's going on?"
