The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!

Chapter 267: No rush for the engagement

It’s really not Shen Mo’s fault.

He used to do things alone.

He had indeed forgotten that he had a teammate suddenly.

Jiang Tiyu was almost pissed to death by him!

If Lu Qingxiao hadn't reacted quickly, the person lying there would have really been a corpse of a human dumpling!

Shen Mo also felt Jiang Tiyu's anger at this moment and didn't even dare to fart.

The eldest son has a good temper, but when he loses his temper, he is even more terrifying than the Duke of England.

It's best not to provoke him if possible.

Shen Mo suddenly asked, "Can the commander raise his hand these days?"

Jiang Tiyu's eyes suddenly looked at Lu Qingxiao like a sharp sword.

Lu Qingxiao just felt that this look made his spine tingle.

"Speak, are you mute?!" Jiang Tiyu really couldn't control his temper.

There is no peace of mind with these two things!

Shen Mo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Jiang Tiyu's anger had indeed shifted.

Lu Qingxiao pursed his lips. It was inevitable to get injured while marching and fighting.

This is just a minor injury and it will be fine after some rest.

Unexpectedly, Shen Mo revealed it, and Lu Qingxiao couldn't help feeling guilty.

"It's just a minor injury."

Jiang Tiyu looked at him suspiciously, "It's just a minor injury? You only went to the Duke's Mansion once in seven or eight days?"

"In the past, you wanted to run to A-chan every day."

"She's still injured, and you only go there once every seven or eight days. Are you...thinking of breaking off the engagement?"

"After all, the engagement hasn't been made yet, so it can be settled cleanly later."

The more Jiang Tiyu thought about it, the angrier he became.

Lu Qingxiao's expression changed: "The date for the engagement has been set."

Jiang Tiyu smiled but said nothing. She turned to look at Shen Mo and said, "Do you want to stay here or come back with me?"

Shen Mo thought of what Jiang Tiyu had just said. Many people in the Duke's Mansion were also worried about him.

"Go back." Shen Mo said firmly.

Jiang Tiyu nodded, he still had some brains.

Jiang Tiyu was about to leave, but Lu Qingxiao reached out to stop him.

Seeing Lu Qingxiao stretching out his left hand, his eyes darkened, "Is it the injured right hand?"

Lu Qingxiao frowned and said, "I treat Achan sincerely, don't say such things again."

Jiang Tiyu raised her eyes and looked at him: "Really?"

"Your true love for A-chan is to let her wait for you without knowing anything?"

"What do you think she is? A dodder clinging to a tree?"

"Or do you think she can't share the good and bad times with you?"

Seeing Lu Qingxiao's expression change, Jiang Tiyu asked again: "Do you remember how Ah Chan felt when she was injured in the paddock?"

Lu Qingxiao's heart was shocked and his eyes changed slightly.

"If it were you, what do you think she would do?"

Jiang Tiyu knew her sister's character very well. She would never want to be a happy fool whose secrets were concealed by others.

"There's no rush to propose marriage. Wait until you've figured it out before you do it."

Jiang Tiyu pushed the door and left. He had to send Shen Mo back first.

Lu Qingxiao called Jiang Tiyu to stop him, took off the token from his waist and gave it to him: "This is a business trip, Jingjiwei can escort him back."

Jiang Tiyu didn't hold a grudge. He nodded slightly, took Lu Qingxiao's token without hesitation and walked out.

Only Lu Qingxiao and Shen Mo were left in the room. The door was still open and cold wind blew in.

The cool breeze blew onto Shen Mo's face like a frozen slap.

Shen Mo said, "Please tell the commander to close the door."

Lu Qingxiao closed the door silently.

Shen Mo thought Lu Qingxiao would close the door and leave, but he didn't expect him to walk up to his bed and stand there.

"Why did you hurt me?" Lu Qingxiao looked at Shen Mo.

Shen Mo smiled helplessly: "In all conscience, am I not helping you?"

"Commander, do you really not know how terrible it is for the young lady to know that we are both hiding something from her?"

Lu Qingxiao's eyes were filled with confusion.

Shen Mo sighed and thought, never mind, just consider that he saved my life.

"Since the lady has decided to be with you, she naturally doesn't want you to hide anything from her, no matter good or bad."

"Think about it carefully. Why was you the first person I notified on the day when the incident happened in Jiuqun Mountain?"

Lu Qingxiao was startled, as if something hit his heart hard.

Seeing Lu Qingxiao's expression change, Shen Mo closed his eyes and pretended to sleep with peace of mind.

I don’t know how long it took, but when Shen Mo opened his eyes again, Lu Qingxiao was gone.

He curled his lips, hoping that the commander could figure it out.

only……

Shen Mo thought of his young lady's current temper, and he was afraid that the commander would also have to suffer.

-

When Lu Qingxiao came out of Sui'an Hall, the deputy envoy of Jingjiwei sent someone to report that the young princess of the Duke's Mansion had sent him some bamboo shoots and braised pork.

Lu Qingxiao was stunned, remembering that the last time Xiaoyueliang gave him this dish was when Pei Zhi, Zhang He and others were there.

It was also the time when she and he made their feelings clear.

"Return to the garrison."

Lu Qingxiao jumped on the horse, holding the reins in his left hand, and headed towards the Jingji garrison.

When he arrived at the garrison, Lu Qingxiao discovered that the person who came was Xin Jiu.

When Xin Jiu saw Lu Qingxiao's gloomy face, his whole body tensed up.

Xin Jiu followed what Shiqi told him: the more you talk, the more mistakes you make; the less you talk, the fewer mistakes you make.

If he doesn't say anything, then there shouldn't be any problem, right?

Lu Qingxiao turned sideways, took the food box from Xin Jiu's hand with his left hand, and glanced at him.

Xin Jiu looked back innocently.

Lu Qingxiao frowned, and Xin Jiu was very upset.

"She only asked you to deliver something, not a message?"

Lu Qingxiao looked at Xin Jiu with a bad look in his eyes.

Xin Jiu shook his head. "The lady only asked me to bring you a lunch box, and didn't say anything else."

Seeing Xin Jiu’s dazed look, Lu Qingxiao was afraid that he couldn’t get anything out of him, so he let him go first.

The office was empty at this moment, and Pei Zhi's original position had been removed.

Lu Qingxiao opened the food box and there was still a rich aroma inside.

He picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of meat. The feeling of it melting in his mouth calmed him down.

While eating, Lu Qingxiao was thinking about what Jiang Tiyu said.

Did he do something wrong?

Was he wrong to hide it from Achan?

He exerted a little force and felt pain in his right arm.

Lu Qingxiao frowned slightly, and for the first time he felt unsure about something.

Lu Qingxiao devoured the entire bowl of braised pork with bamboo shoots in one bite.

As his right arm was not strong enough, he used his left hand to clean up the mess bit by bit.

The deputy envoy happened to come to him to report on official business. Seeing this, he stepped forward quickly and said, "Sir, let me do it."

Lu Qingxiao didn't even raise his head, "No need."

The deputy envoy stood where he was, waiting for Lu Qingxiao to pack up the food boxes, and then he said that there was an oral order from the palace.

He said that the capital's garrison should cooperate with Pei Shaoqing in investigating the case and also protect Pei Shaoqing's safety.

"Where are the others?" Lu Qingxiao looked at the deputy envoy.

The deputy envoy was slightly surprised and said, "Pei Shaoqing said that you know where he is. If you want to find him, you must restore his position first."

Lu Qingxiao snorted and agreed, and asked the deputy envoy to move Pei Zhi's previous seat back.

Just after the tables and chairs were moved back, Pei Zhi walked in leisurely from the door.

Pei Zhi raised his eyebrows at Lu Qingxiao, "I've already said it before, you'll have to return to your original state sooner or later."

Lu Qingxiao didn't bother to glance at him.

Pei Zhi smiled and said, "After my shift, Jiang Shishu and I have an appointment to have dinner at Shuhe Tower. Do you want to go?"

Lu Qingxiao's eyes suddenly tightened, "Go."
