Chapter 226 Little Fox
Although Chu Qirui's voice was low, it was filled with unquestionable concern. Hearing this, Lu Yundi's mouth twitched slightly. He suppressed the pain in his heart and slowly said, "Maybe. I am indeed a little tired these days."
She gently rubbed her temples, her eyes showing a little fatigue, but she still forced a smile and responded: "Young Marquis, thank you for your concern. I'm fine. I just had a strange dream. I dreamed that our Chongren Marquis Mansion encountered an accident, and I felt a little uneasy."
Chu Qirui's eyes became serious, and he stared at Lu Yundi closely, as if he wanted to find some clues from her eyes. He knew very well that the wife of Zhenxing Marquis was not an ordinary woman. Her wisdom and courage were well-known in the mansion. If she had not encountered something that really made her uneasy, she would not have shown her worry so easily.
"Madam, did you dream about anything special?" There was a hint of urgency in Chu Qirui's voice, he wanted to know more.
Lu Yundi sighed softly, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and finally decided to tell the whole story: "I dreamed that a mysterious man in black sneaked into the mansion. He held a sharp knife and seemed to have bad intentions. I wanted to wake you up, but I couldn't move. I could only watch him approach."
Chu Qirui's face suddenly became solemn. He clenched his fists tightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Madam, this matter is very serious. We must find out the truth immediately."
As he said this, he turned and walked to the desk, picked up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, quickly wrote a letter, and handed it to Lu Yundi: "Madam, please send someone to deliver this letter immediately. I want to ask my father to mobilize the troops and the defense of the Marquis' Mansion."
Lu Yundi took the letter and a trace of gratitude flashed across her face. She knew that Chu Qirui did it for her and for the safety of the entire Marquisate. She nodded slightly and said, "Young Marquis, don't worry. I will definitely send the letter out as soon as possible."
At this time, there was a sound of footsteps outside the house, and a guard came in with a plate of cakes in his hand. He placed it respectfully on the table and said, "Young Marquis, Madam, it's late at night. Please have some cakes and take a rest."
Chu Qirui nodded slightly and said to the guard: "You go and have a rest. You don't need to take care of this place."
The guard agreed and left. Chu Qirui turned around, looked at Lu Yundi, and said softly, "Madam, it's late at night and you are tired. You should rest first. I will patrol the mansion to ensure safety."
Lu Yundi nodded gently, with a trace of worry in her eyes. She knew that Chu Qirui was worried about her, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. She said softly: "Young Marquis, you should also take care of your health and don't overwork yourself."
Chu Qirui smiled slightly, his eyes full of tenderness. He gently patted Lu Yundi's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Madam. I will take good care of myself."
Several days passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, hurried footsteps were heard in the Chongren Marquis's mansion, and Chu Qirui quickly walked out of the house with a hint of anxiety on his face.
"Madam, the matter is urgent. I just received news that the man in black has sneaked into the Marquis' Mansion!" There was a hint of nervousness in Chu Qirui's voice.
Lu Yundi's expression also became solemn. She immediately summoned the guards in the mansion and arranged defenses.
At this moment, a guard came hurriedly, holding a letter in his hand, and said, "Young Marquis, Madam, this is the letter that just arrived. The letter said that the man in black has been found by our people, and they are trying their best to capture him."
Chu Qirui took the letter, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. He looked at Lu Yundi and said, "Madam, we won. We have found the man in black."
Lu Yundi smiled slightly, and the worries in her heart were finally put aside.
……
Chu Qirui looked at Lu Yundi, with a hint of admiration in his eyes. He smiled gently and said, "Madam, you are really a charming little fox. You are so admirable in the world of Chongren Marquis Mansion."
Lu Yundi's eyes flickered, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a sly smile: "Young Marquis, you are too kind. In this world, who is not deceiving each other? However, young Marquis, aren't you also a clever fox?"
Chu Qirui smiled slightly, with a hint of pride in his eyes: "Madam, you are too kind. However, I would like to ask, how did this little fox gain a foothold in the Chongren Marquis Mansion?"
Lu Yundi smiled lightly, with a look of confidence in her eyes: "Young Marquis, this has to start with my life in the Zhenxing Marquis' Mansion. Back then, my husband, the Zhenxing Marquis, passed away, leaving me an orphan and a widow. In order to survive in this mansion, I had to learn to read people's expressions and curry favor with the powerful. And this Chongren Marquis' Mansion is just another kind of Jianghu."
Chu Qirui's eyes flashed with sympathy, but it was quickly concealed: "Madam is really tenacious. So, do you have any wishes in this mansion?"
Lu Yundi's eyes were firm and his tone was calm: "My wish is very simple, that is, my son can grow up safely and no longer be bullied by others. As for the rest, it doesn't matter."
After hearing this, Chu Qirui's eyes flashed with admiration: "Madam is really wise. However, I think you have higher ambitions. In this Chongren Marquis Mansion, don't you want to gain more power and gain more status for yourself?"
Lu Yundi's eyes turned cold, but she still had a smile on her lips: "Young Marquis, you think too highly of me. I am just an ordinary mother who only wants to protect my child. As for power and status, they are all external things, and I don't care about them."
Chu Qirui looked at Lu Yundi and secretly sighed in his heart: This woman is indeed not simple. He smiled gently and said, "Madam, you are right. In this world, we are all helpless. I hope you can always keep this original intention and protect your children."
The two continued to stroll in the garden, and the atmosphere between them became more and more harmonious. Chu Qirui suddenly stopped, looked at Lu Yundi, and said seriously: "Madam, do you think we can be friends?"
Lu Yundi smiled slightly, with a touch of emotion in his eyes: "Young Marquis, it is my honor to meet a friend like you. I am very pleased to have a confidant like you in the Chongren Marquis Mansion."
After hearing this, Chu Qirui's heart moved. He stretched out his hand and gently shook hands with Lu Yundi: "Then, let's become friends and protect everything we cherish together in this world."
However, the good times did not last long. One day, Chu Qirui suddenly received a letter, the contents of which shocked him greatly.
Someone was secretly plotting to frame Lu Yundi. Chu Qirui knew that if this conspiracy succeeded, Lu Yundi would be doomed.
Chu Qirui immediately found Lu Yundi and handed her the letter. After reading the letter, Lu Yundi's face became extremely heavy.
The two discussed countermeasures and decided to strike first and nip the conspiracy in the bud.
At a grand banquet, Chu Qirui and Lu Yundi teamed up to expose the framer. Everyone in Chongrenhou Mansion was amazed, and they didn't expect that this little fox could have such means.
