Let Me Pursue You

The man had no smile on his face, his eyes were indifferent, and he said "little lady" well, but when it came out of his mouth, his breath was cold.

The Great Zhou Dynasty advocated eclecticism, the folk customs were free and civilized, and there were few restrictions on women. Men's clothing like Yuan Cixian's travel was not considered unconventional, and it was no big deal to be exposed by others.

It's just that this piercing-eyed man doesn't seem to be the humble gentleman who has been praised in ancient times. On the contrary, he is full of inexplicable pickiness and arrogance, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

Yuan Cixian didn't know yet that the Lu family's gentleman named "Shi Qing" was famous in Chang'an City for his face smellier than the soles of shoes.

Lu Shuangyu, the youngest daughter of the Lu family, was shocked beyond words.

Seeing this, Yuan Cixian stopped speaking in a rough voice, and said to her in her own voice: "Little lady, I will take care of her kindness, but as Brother Ling said, I am not a man."

Listening to this slender and crisp voice, how could it not be my daughter's home?

Lu Shuangyu was dumbfounded, and looked at her face a few times before she finally came to her senses, her heart turned a thousand times, her face flushed red, but she continued to speak stiffly: "I don't believe it, you cheated with brother I!"

Yuan Cixian and Lu Shiqing glanced at each other.

After this unfriendly glance, Yuan Cixian felt a little strange. She was surrounded here on a hot day, she deserved to be uncomfortable, but why did this man look like he was owed 800 taels of gold?

How could anyone treat a "sister-savior" like this. It's not her fault that she gave birth to a face that can take all men and women.

She lost her patience and said: "Brother Ling and I have never met before, how can we talk about a partnership? As for deception, it is even more ridiculous. If you don't believe me, wait for me to recover my daughter's body some other day, and then come and find me." Xiaorou said without a smile, "It's hot, let's say goodbye."

Lu Shuangyu was about to cry.

Yue Mo was deceiving herself, she still didn't give up, she opened her arms to block Yuan Cixian's head, and refused to let her go, bit her lips and said: "You don't leave a name, where can I find you? You are guilty!"

Yuan Cixian glanced at Lu Shiqing: "What is my surname and where is my family? Just ask Brother Ling to check back."

This official uniform is the regulation of the fourth-rank officials in the court. How can a person who sits in this seat at such a young age be a simple character? It couldn't be easier to check someone.

Lu Shiqing glanced back at her indifferently, and said coldly to his sister, "Shuangyu, come back."

Lu Shuangyu backed away with her mouth pursed.

Yuan Cixian nodded to her and stopped staying.

It's just that she didn't get what she wanted, and after walking a few steps, she heard a strange sound like a dog kicking the ground behind her, and at the same time, there was a short and sharp scream.

She paused, turned around, and saw a huge black leather dog jumping out from nowhere, and rushed towards Lu Shiqing like an arrow, swooped in front of him, and snatched away a piece of jade ring from his waist. .

With a sound of "click", the dog snapped the jade in half, and stared at him at his feet, with a low growl rolling from the bottom of his throat.

Seeing this scene, Lu Shuangyu, who had finished screaming, forgot to stick to Yuan Cixian's departure for a moment, and hurriedly stood in front of Lu Shiqing, and said loudly: "Brother, don't be afraid!" What are you doing, quickly take this wild dog down!"

Yuan Cixian was turning around, hearing this "Brother, don't be afraid", almost sprained, and stepped on her right foot with her left foot.

If you look closely, you can see that the proud man just now has his back stiff, his face white as paper, his eyes wide open, his lips trembling, and there is no trace of dignity at all.

As the wind blew, a bean-sized bead of sweat slid down his neat sideburns, and dripped on his tight jaw.

He remained motionless and stood with his hands behind his back, but his fists were clenched tightly, making his finger bones turn blue and white.

Several servants panicked and arrested the dog. The atmosphere was once very solidified.

Yuan Cixian was stunned for a while, but couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing with a "chi".

As soon as the dog was under control, Lu Shiqing quickly returned to his original state, took a slow breath without looking sideways, then turned sideways stiffly, and gave Lu Shuangyu a cold look.

Lu Shuangyu let out a short "ah", and immediately understood what stupid thing she had done.

Dogs are my brother's weakness. Originally, this was supposed to be a family secret, and my brother tried his best to cover it up, but she repeatedly told him to reveal his secrets in front of outsiders. Now people who don't like him in the court always take This is waiting for the fierce dog to tease him. For example, Yuan Yu, the only son of the King of Southern Yunnan who stayed in Beijing.

She carefully looked at Lu Shiqing, covered her mouth tightly, and signaled that she would never talk so fast again in the future.

It has spread all over the capital, so what's the future?

Lu Shiqing gritted his teeth, suppressed his anger, and looked at the person who was striding towards the Changting Pavilion.

Compared with Lu Shiqing here, this person is a little stronger and taller, with a darker complexion, and he walks with a neat and unrestrained posture of a warrior. It really is Yuan Yu, the only son of the King of Southern Dian.

When he approached, Lu Shiqing's thin lips curled up, and he paused every word, and asked with gnashing teeth: "Is General Yuan here to search for a dog?"

How could such well-trained hounds appear for no reason, they must be instructed by people. Now the owner of the dog is here.

Yuan Yu first glanced at Yuan Cixian, seeing her younger sister was watching a play, assuming she wasn't being bullied, she turned her eyes back to the front: "Lu Shilang is really Yuan's bosom friend." After saying that, he took the pet dog from the servant. , looking down in distress, "Oh, my little Heihei, I finally found you!"

The black-skinned dog who was still looking fierce just now immediately lowered its head, with tears in its eyes, as if it had just been beaten.

Yuan Yu put the dog on the ground, and when it was over, he slapped his head suddenly: "Yuan forgot, Lu Shilang and Quan Xingsu are not speculative, and the family dog ​​scared you, right?"

Lu Shiqing smiled and tore off the other jade ring from his waist, and handed it forward, avoiding answering: "Since Ling Quan has taken a fancy to Lu's jade ring, why don't you take both."

Yuan Yu thanked him, raised his hand to accept it, bowed his head and said, "Thank Lu Shilang soon."

"Wow!"

Lu Shiqing's handsome face froze, and the sweat on his forehead was covered again.

Yuan Cixian suppressed a smile.

Yuan Yu seemed to have noticed her just now, deliberately not revealing her identity, and said pleasantly: "Ah, brother Xian, you are here! I agreed to talk at the house today, and I have been waiting for you for a long time, so I went out with my dog Looking for...now there is really no place to find, and it's easy to find!" After saying that, he looked like he wanted to hook her shoulders.

Pompous, too pompous.

The corners of Yuan Cixian's mouth twitched slightly, seeing the brothers and sisters of the Lu family staring at them as if they were fools, he hated iron and said: "Brother, don't act anymore, people know that I am a daughter."

Yuan Yu's smile faltered, and the hand that was about to hook her shoulders turned a corner, then clasped the palms together and slapped them heavily, rubbed each other, coughed awkwardly, and said to Lu Shiqing, who had cold eyes: "This... If that's the case, It's getting late, let's leave too. Please, Minister Lu first?"

Lu Shiqing glanced at the blocking dog in front of his eyes, kept smiling, and said calmly: "In terms of status and rank, General Yuan is above Lu, so you should invite him first."

Yuan Yu waved his hand: "Hey, no, no, grades are all false, and you know that I am just an idle general, and it is my honor to talk to you, the famous man in front of the saint. You should ask me first ,After you!"

The two were in a stalemate, Lu Shuangyu hesitated for a moment, bit her lip and made up her mind: "Brother, why don't I 'please' first, and you follow me!"

Lu Shiqing's smile could not be maintained firmly, he gave her a hard look, and was about to open the way with a shake of his hand.

"Wow!"

Taking a step forward, I suddenly heard a dog bark. He paused suddenly, turned sharply, and detoured towards the other side of the long pavilion with a livid face.

Lu Shuangyu followed closely.

Yuan Cixian couldn't bear it any longer, and collapsed on the beauty's bed with her stomach in her arms.

Yuan Yu didn't think it was enough, so he continued to fuel the fire, and shouted to the back of the group: "Lu Shilang's legs are weak, walk slowly, be careful not to fall!"

After the person left, he sat down beside him, put his hands on his knees, and raised his eyebrows at Yuan Cixian, "What's the matter, you, you met this kind of person when you first arrived in Chang'an."

What kind of person is this person?

She put away her smile and looked innocent: "It's not my fault, ask Shicui if you don't believe me."

Shi Cui told the story from the beginning to the end, and said: "Mr. Lang, my lady is new here. I don't want to cause trouble for you. I have tried my best to bear it."

After hearing this, Yuan Yu slapped his head: "It's all brother's fault. In this way, this surname Lu may have recognized you at first sight, so he deliberately put on a face and implicated you in the grievances with brother."

Yuan Cixian blinked strangely: "How could he recognize me? I was only last year... Oh, the day when I entered the palace with my father to receive the reward coincided with Shuo Dynasty, and all the officials gathered..."

She just said, she had her chest flattened, her eyebrows thickened, and her complexion darkened, how could he see through her daughter's body so sharply, he had seen her face before.

She glanced at Yuan Yu: "Then I would like to ask, how brother got into trouble with 'this kind of person'."

Yuan Yu opened his mouth and couldn't speak. Seeing that she was staring at him for a long time, she could only curl her lips and said: "It's not that this person has too many eccentricities, and he feels uncomfortable when he sees asymmetrical and uneven objects. You saw it just now, There are two identical jade rings hanging from his waist, one on the left and the other on the right, how can ordinary people have such things?"

She was taken aback for a moment, then nodded after thinking about it: "A strange person."

No wonder if a piece of jade was taken away by a dog, he simply didn't want the other piece.

"That's not it! You don't know, when I went back to the court, I only protruded half an arm's distance from the ranks of officials, and he felt uncomfortable all over. He asked the officials to send messages to me one by one, telling me to straighten up. Stand neatly. The sage was talking, and when he saw the rustling and whispering, he became upset and asked us what we were doing. Tell it to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty!"

"Tell me, he is an enshrined official of the fourth grade, and he must attend every court meeting. As for me, I am just a non-practice person. I can go to the Xuanzheng Hall to see the world on the first and fifteenth day of the first month. It's rare that he can't see it for nothing, so he wants to bully people like this?"

Yuan Cixian laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist, she wiped her tears for a while and said, "Afterwards, how did the saint punish you?"

Yuan Yu became even more angry: "It's obvious that he picks and chooses regardless of the occasion, but the sage only taught me a lesson!" After saying that, he sighed, "Don't mention it, who is so loved by the sage, who is proud of being favored?" What's the matter?"

Yuan Cixian wanted to laugh again, but his face changed a little when he heard it: "You mean, this Minister Lu is the favorite of the saint?"
