Nian Huajiao: The cold-faced treacherous minister spoiled her unconditionally after breaking his vow

It wasn’t actually late at night.

She was just using the late night to emphasize that it was inappropriate for Lu Jinan to come here.

"Didn't you ask me to come?" The deep voice replied casually.

The little girl is quite cunning.

Jiang Luo smiled and said, "Maybe Master Lu heard it wrong?"

She clearly said late at night.

Is it the middle of the night?

The lights in the courtyards ahead were still on, so how could it be the middle of the night?

Lu Jinan glanced at her and just happened to see the smile on her face.

The little girl looked very cute when she was slightly drunk.

It's more down-to-earth than usual.

In the semi-darkness, he swallowed.

He felt the remaining alcohol in his throat burning.

I've drunk stronger liquor in the past and never felt a burning sensation in my throat.

What happened today?

His eyes trembled slightly and his brows furrowed.

What's wrong with you?

He quickly turned his eyes away and took another sip of wine to suppress the strangeness in his heart.

"Maybe." He said coldly.

Jiang Luo was a little surprised when he heard this.

Is this still the solemn and murderous commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Lord Lu?

Why does she sound so gentle when hearing these words?

"Did you see it?" Lu Jinan returned to his usual coldness and asked.

That’s right, this is the Lord Lu she knows.

Jiang Luo nodded and replied: "Not missing a single word."

"You came to me to ask this?"

"Yes and no." Jiang Luo said, looking at his resolute profile.

Lu Jinan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her.

Jiang Luo didn't have time to look away.

The two people's eyes met unexpectedly.

She blinked, somewhat at a loss.

Lu Jinan has a pair of peach blossom eyes.

At this moment, those eyes were reflecting the lights in the distance, as if they were filled with stars, dazzling people.

Jiang Luo sighed: What a nice appearance, what a pity...

Lu Jinan narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at her straight, as if he wanted to carve her into his eyes.

Jiang Luo was defeated by his stare and said, "What I mean is, besides this matter, I have another question that I would like to ask Lord Lu to answer."

Hearing this, Lu Jinan withdrew his gaze, raised his head and took another sip of wine.

"You ask."

"What is the relationship between your father and my uncle?" Jiang Luo asked directly.

"A close friend." Lu Jinan replied straightforwardly.

Jiang Luo was stunned.

Prince Jing and his uncle, who seem to have nothing in common, are actually close friends?

"So, Prince Jing is from Guangling?"

Lu Jinan didn't say anything.

Jiang Luo just thought that he agreed.

The Wu family is a wealthy family in Jiangnan.

The Xie family is a noble family.

Prince Jing is a new noble.

So, in her previous life, her maternal grandfather’s family was executed. Could it be related to Prince Jing?

Jiang Luo just couldn't figure it out.

After a moment, she fumbled to take out the jade pendant from her neck, looked at Lu Jinan and asked, "Master Lu knows the origin of this jade pendant, right?"

Following her movements, Lu Jinan's gaze was also focused on the jade pendant.

After a while, he looked away, his eyes moving slightly.

He couldn't force open Mr. Wu San's mouth.

But the little girl in front of me...

When Jiang Luo saw him like this, he understood.

He must know.

Lu Jinan raised his head and took a sip of wine, then said, "This is my second uncle Xie Yuanqing's personal jade pendant."

When Jiang Luo heard this, his eyes widened and he looked at Lu Jinan in disbelief.

"Your second uncle Xie Yuanqing?"

How could a girl like her have anything belonging to a foreign man?

It's a jade pendant that you wear close to your body.

How can this be?

So this is what her mother meant when she said in the letter, “The jade pendant should not be shown to others easily”!

Are you afraid of being recognized?

Lu Jinan nodded.

"why?"

Lu Jinan shook his head: "I don't know either."

"Xie Yuanqing... is he Xie Yuanqing, the winner of the top three imperial examinations and the one who has no equal till now?" Jiang Luo asked with a frown.

Jiang Luo had also heard of Lu Jinan's second uncle Xie Yuanqing in his previous life.

At that time, she heard rumors that Xie Yuanqing was the chief scholar of the Yong Dynasty.

Back then, when Xie Yuanqing, the handsome and talented young man from the Xie family, was paraded through the streets as the top scholar, I wonder how many hearts he won over from noble ladies from aristocratic families.

To this day, the aunties in the alley still remember the crowded scene that day.

But such a person with all the glory suddenly disappeared.

No one has seen him in all these years.

There is no news of him in this world anymore.

There are all kinds of rumors circulating.

Some say he is dead.

Some say he is crazy.

There is also a saying that he saw through the world and lived in seclusion in the mountains.

But no matter how many rumors there were, this person just disappeared.

Twenty years have passed, and there has never been another Xie Yuanqing in the literary world.

It's not that I don't have any good talent.

But there is no brilliant person who combines talent, appearance and family background.

The jade pendant of such a strange man was actually in her hands.

But what does this have to do with her?

This is so weird…

"Yes." Lu Jinan always answered so straightforwardly.

At this moment, Jiang Luo just wanted to figure out what was going on.

She looked at Lu Jinan and decided to confess: "I have been wearing this jade pendant since I can remember. My mother mentioned the jade pendant in the letter she left for me, but it was just a simple sentence, nothing special."

Lu Jinan looked at her.

He also deeply understood the confusion and hesitation in the little girl's eyes.

He said inexplicably: "Perhaps, your mother is also related to my third uncle."

"Impossible!" Jiang Luo immediately retorted.

impossible.

If this is true, then she...

She thought of Jiang Zhou's disgust towards her.

Thinking of how Madam Jiang disliked her mother.

I thought of what her mother said in the letter: "It can save lives at the critical moment."

Thinking back to her previous life, they watched helplessly as she was framed, deceived, and bullied to death by Qin's mother and daughter.

This is impossible!

Jiang Luo shook her head fiercely, throwing away all the thoughts lingering in her mind.

This is incredible.

Seeing her strong reaction, Lu Jinan stopped talking and just started drinking.

Jiang Luo picked up the wine jug and took a big gulp of the wine.

More and more mysteries surround her.

There was a misty forest before her eyes.

Can't get in, can't get out.

But she overestimated her drinking capacity.

Nanxing never drinks mild liquor.

She drank the entire wine jug in her hand, feeling dizzy and speaking even more boldly.

After a moment, she said, "Master Lu, do you want to find your third uncle's whereabouts from me?"

If Lu Jinan had no ulterior motives, why would he come to see her so easily?

How could I say so much to her?

She is not stupid.

Lu Jinan raised his eyebrows calmly.

He felt something was wrong with Jiang Luo's voice, but he still replied, "Yes."

"How about we form an alliance?"

Lu Jinan looked over at her excited gaze.

The little girl's cheeks were slightly red, obviously she was a little drunk.

There's no harm in teasing her.

"How do we form an alliance?"

Jiang Luo smiled as soon as he heard this and said, "I will find out the news about the Wu family for you. But you have to let me hold on to your thigh tightly."

Lu Jinan frowned.

What is this requirement?

Hug your thighs...
