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

Seeing that he agreed without asking, he seemed to be very familiar with this gambling house. So he thought that maybe the Jinyiwei behind the gambling house that the senior manager had inquired about were Lu Jinan's men.

He didn't say anything, maybe there was something important that couldn't be told to outsiders, so Jiang Luo wisely didn't ask any more questions.

She stood up and bowed: "Jiang Luo thanks Lord Lu for his help. If Lord Lu needs anything from Jiang Luo in the future, just send someone to tell him."

Then she pulled out the jade pendant from her neck and said, "What I said that day still counts. I will always wear this jade pendant. If that person is still alive and comes to take the jade pendant, I will definitely find a way to tell you."

"You want to see him, and I also want to ask him clearly!" Jiang Luo held the jade pendant in his hand and looked at Lu Jinan steadily.

Lu Jinan was willing to help her, not only for the sake of her third uncle, but also because Princess Jing wanted to meet Xie Qingyuan.

In addition to these, he must have other plans.

She didn't believe that Lord Lu, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, would treat her differently and take such care of her for no reason.

He also didn't believe that apart from this jade pendant, she had anything else that Lu Jinan needed.

After living two lives, if she still easily believes that others will treat her well for no reason, then she is really stupid.

However, it's good to get what you need.

Lu Jinan: Do you want me to dig out my sincere heart and show it to you...

Lu Jinan looked back at her without dodging, his eyes filled with raging storms: "Okay."

Could it be that... the little girl also has doubts?

Or did she discover something?

"Master Lu, Jiang Luo has another request."

"You said."

"I have two people under my control, and they may know some unknown secrets. But I don't know how to interrogate them. I wonder if I can borrow Lord Lu's men to get something out of them." Jiang Luo said as he poured tea for Lu Jinan.

Lu Jinan thought for a moment and replied, "Okay. But you have to wait a few days. I have some important things to do here. When I'm done, I'll come to you to get the person."

Jiang Luo was delighted when he heard this.

She picked up Lu Jinan's teacup with both hands and smiled as bright as spring: "Thank you, Lord Lu, please have some tea." She was a little excited for a moment and even used honorifics without realizing it.

She had long thought of asking the Jinyiwei to help interrogate Rong Ping and Cao's mother. But she knew it was not easy to do.

Can anyone dare to order the Jinyiwei people around? They are not afraid of their long life...

Today, she saw that Lu Jinan was so easy to talk to, so she just wanted to mention it slightly. If it can be done, it would be the best, but if it can't be done, it won't be a big deal.

After all, she and Lu Jinan were familiar with each other, so he wouldn't kill her just by asking.

With the Jinyiwei coming to interrogate Rongping and Mother Cao, she will definitely get more important information.

Perhaps, she would know why her mother died.

Where did Jiang Zhou get the poison, and why was he so cruel and determined to kill her mother?

Or perhaps, there are more secrets?

Lu Jinan raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the word "you".

He took the teacup handed over by Jiang Luo, drank it all, and then said: "Miss Jiang, you owe me again."

Jiang Luo: She knew it wasn’t that simple!

Although she secretly complained in her heart, she also knew that Lu Jinan had indeed helped her a lot. This also made her realize that Lu Jinan was not as unsightly as the rumors outside had said.

At least in her eyes, he is a true gentleman.

The two of them had saved each other before, so they were even. Now that she had something to ask for help, it was only natural that she owed him a favor.

She half-jokingly said, "Yes, Jiang Luo owes you one again. Do you have anything for me to do now?"

Lu Jinan was disturbed by her smile, especially her phoenix eyes. They were so cold and clear when she was not smiling, but if she was smiling at this moment, she would be so captivating.

He quickly lowered his eyes and played with the teacup at hand to calm his mind.

He had already admitted that he, Lu Jinan, had been attracted by her beauty from the very beginning.

After a moment, he said in a hoarse voice: "There is indeed one thing I want you to do."

Jiang Luo was stunned.

No!

She was just talking, did Lu Jinan take it seriously? It wasn't that she was trying to shirk responsibility, it was really late at night, what else could she do?

Is it...

"No, Master Lu..."

Jiang Luo was interrupted by Lu Jinan before he could finish his words: "Remove this 'you' and only use 'you' when talking to me in the future. If I hear you use 'you' again..." After saying that, he put down the teacup, stood up, glanced down at Jiang Luo with a warning look, and then walked out.

In his heart, the word "you" is only used for elders.

But he didn't want to be Jiang Luo's elder.

Jiang Luo was even more confused when he heard this: "Is this what Lord Lu wants me to do?"

Lu Jinan stopped and turned slightly, revealing only his high nose bridge and smooth and neat jawline, and nodded: "Yes."

Although it was just a very simple word, it shocked Jiang Luo's heart.

Is it that easy?

This……

She looked at Lu Jinan's tall and straight back, and her heart seemed to be hit hard, and a strong warmth swept over her.

Isn't this just working for nothing?

Would Lu Jinan be so stupid?

It is absolutely impossible.

After Lu Jinan answered Jiang Luo's questions, he turned around and walked out again.

After taking two steps, he seemed to have thought of something, and his long legs that were originally raised fell down again: "You...if you need anything regarding breaking off the engagement, you can come to me anytime." After that, without waiting for Jiang Luo's answer, he lifted the bead curtain and walked out.

He had pressed the acupoints on the honeysuckle in the outer room, so he had to untie the acupoints of this maid before leaving.

After a moment, when the door outside was closed and the last trace of sound disappeared, Jiang Luo came to his senses.

Lu Jinan actually said he would help her break off the engagement?

This is not impossible!

Although she was prepared to uncover the true identities of these people herself, she would feel more at ease if Lu Jinan was behind her.

From this perspective, Lu Jinan was pretty good, she was right.

Before daybreak, the wives of the masters in the Duke's Mansion got up, and the maids and servants in each courtyard also became busy.

Fu'anyuan and Qiu Shuiyuan are even worse.

Liu had slept for only a few hours before being called up by Mother Zhao to dress up. She was the leader of the birthday banquet today, and she had to make decisions on all matters, while Qin assisted her.

As for the outer courtyard, the two masters Jiang Zhou and Jiang Miao hosted the guests.

Madam Jiang also changed her listless look from the previous night. She got up early and asked Mother Qin to pick out a crimson purple brocade dress with gold embroidery of lucky clouds for her. On her half-white hair bun, she wore a set of red gold head ornaments inlaid with eight treasures. On her old arms, she wore a pair of red gold bracelets inlaid with rubies and tourmalines for the blessings of wealth, longevity and good fortune.

From a distance, it looks elegant and luxurious, but if you look closely, it is really vulgar.

Pity!

After being the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo for so many years, she is still so unpresentable.

However, she was the birthday girl today, so naturally, whatever she said was the truth. Mother Qin didn't say anything, and those little maids didn't dare to interrupt...
