Only Lu Siheng knew that this was not God's will. Even if it was God's will, it would still be on his side, but he did not seize the opportunity.

In fact, it only took so long to read a letter. Sometimes he wondered, if he had read that letter at that time, would he really have given up that perfect opportunity to make a meritorious deed and look for her at all costs?

The two choices were not really placed in front of him, and everything he said was pale.

"Jia Fu, I'm sorry. I promised you to leave the Duke Dingguo's residence dignifiedly, but I failed to do so in the end."

Dong Jiafu turned around and said, "It doesn't matter. Just like I said in the letter, this matter is not your fault. Just pretend that there was no such agreement between us."

Lu Siheng's expression changed when he heard this, and he sat up quickly, "What do you mean by that? The agreement is that I will help you leave the Dingguo Duke's mansion, and then marry you with three letters and six etiquettes. Doesn't this count?" "

"Since the premise is gone, what's the point of the agreement?" Dong Jiafu asked.

Lu Siheng was so guilty that he was speechless. After a long time, he whispered: "Jiafu, can you give me another chance?"

"Master Lu, you have a bright future ahead, and you shouldn't be hindered by the love between your children." Dong Jiafu stood up carefully, "It's getting late, let's go down."

Lu Siheng wanted to say something else, but he couldn't. When she needed help the most, he did nothing. Now that she has family members who love her and is no longer a helpless little maid, what qualifications does he have for her to trust him unconditionally?

"Okay." Lu Siheng hugged Dong Jiafu again and brought her to the ground steadily.

This time Dong Jiafu also closed her eyes because she was prepared.

, she just grabbed the clothes on Lu Siheng's back and didn't do anything inappropriate like when she came up.

After standing firm, the two of them let go of their hands and walked back slowly.

Dong Jiafu could feel that Lu Siheng was feeling a little depressed, but she was speaking from her heart. She had already made a bet last time, and now that she was no longer alone, she could no longer act as casually as before.

She looked as usual and said: "Since you are an expert, then one of the people wearing masks in Yuzhou before was you."

Lu Siheng didn't expect that she would mention this matter. He nodded and said, "It was me. I was ordered to assist Crown Prince Cui at that time. As part of my responsibilities, I cannot show my true face to others."

"I understand," Dong Jiafu turned to look at him, "When I was recovering from my injuries in bed, you were the one who gave me the script?"

At that time, he was the only one who would show up inconveniently and quietly put down his script. She had thought it was him from the beginning, but she thought it was impossible and refused again.

"Yes, I was afraid that you would be too bored staying in your room, so I got those things for you before I left."

"Thank you. Those words were very useful at that time."

"As long as you like it, these are the trivial things I can do." Lu Siheng couldn't hide the loneliness in his eyes.

Dong Jiafu shook his head, "How could it be? If you hadn't arrived in time when we were at the bottom of the cliff, me and...we would have been in trouble."

Lu Siheng knew who she was talking about, and he felt much better when he thought that she was not even willing to mention that person's name, but was willing to chat with him like this.

"I can't take all the credit for this with peace of mind. That was originally my mission."

Dong Jiafu chuckled, he was humble now

Woke up.

The two returned to the second floor and happened to see Feng Jiyuan coming out of the room.

Feng Jiyuan saw the two of them walking together and was slightly startled, "Afu, where are you and Mr. Lu?"

"I can't sleep, so I went out for a walk." Dong Jiafu asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Oh, I'm going to get some hot water."

Dong Jiafu pointed to her room door, "Then I'll go in first."

"Afu, get some rest early, we will continue our journey tomorrow." Feng Jiyuan said warmly.

Lu Siheng watched Dong Jiafu enter, nodded to Feng Jiyuan, turned around and walked to his room.

After walking for another three days, they finally arrived in the capital.

Along the way, Lu Siheng arranged it very well, and even Xu Yiwan couldn't help but sigh, saying that experts don't seem to be as scary as the rumors.

"The Holy One has given a house to Mr. Dong's family, and I will take you there." Lu Siheng said riding a horse next to Dong Jingtang's carriage.

Dong Jingtang lifted the curtain and said, "Master Lao Lu is here."

"Don't be polite, Mr. Dong." Lu Siheng drove his horse forward.

When they arrived at the place, the group got out of the car and saw that a plaque with the name "Dong's Mansion" had been hung on the grand door.

The internal officer sent by the Holy Lord led seven or eight maids and servants out of it, "Welcome Sir Dong. You have had a hard journey. The Holy Lord ordered that you don't have to rush into the palace to express your gratitude. You should settle down in the mansion first and rest for a few days."

"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." Dong Jingtang saluted respectfully.

The official pointed to the people behind him and said: "These servants were also purchased by the slaves ordered by the Holy Emperor. If they are not used in the future, you can dispose of them yourself."

"Let the internal officials worry."

"I don't dare take it." The internal officer turned around and said to Lu Siheng again

, "Master Lu, Your Majesty has ordered you to come to the palace immediately to pay homage."

Lu Siheng cupped his hands and said, "Master Dong, Mrs. Dong, please go ahead and come back to visit us another day."

"Then we will wait for Mr. Lu at home." Dong Jingtang replied.

The internal officials left with Lu Siheng and Yue Qi.

After they left, Feng Jiyuan stood up and said, "Uncle and aunt, I won't disturb you anymore. I'll come to visit you after you've settled down."

"That's fine," Dong Jingtang nodded, "You can go back to your residence to clean up. If you have any difficulties, come home."

"Yes, you live alone outside, so you have to take care of yourself." Xu Yiwan said worriedly.

"Don't worry, aunt, I still have Wu Tong and the steward by my side. Everything will be fine."

After Feng Jiyuan said goodbye to the three Dong Jiafu brothers, he got on the carriage and turned around to go to his house in the capital.

"Come on, let's go in and take a look." Dong Jingtang led his family towards the mansion.

This is a three-entry courtyard. After passing through the hanging flower door, you will find a very spacious courtyard, which is very clean.

The family walked around. Their family was simple, and such a big house was more than enough to live in.

In the end, Xu Yiwan arranged the accommodation. Naturally, she and Dong Jingtang lived in the main room, the brothers Dong Jiabai and Dong Jialin lived in the east wing, and Dong Jiafu herself lived in the west wing.

Butler Sun led a few boys to carry the luggage down and put the things away.

Then the servants from the courtyard came to greet them. In addition to the four maids and four boys they saw just now, there were three more people in the kitchen.

Xu Yiwan didn't like to worry. When she was in Yingzhou, these people were under the control of Butler Sun and Mama Guo. It's the same now. After asking, she asked Butler Sun and Mother Guo to give him

They distributed the work.
