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

Lu Jinan had many questions in his mind.

But he knew that it would be inappropriate for him to ask those questions at this time.

What he should do is to comfort his mother first.

"Well, Second Uncle must still be alive, just as you said." He said solemnly.

Princess Jing was extremely happy to hear his words, as if Xie Yuanqing was really happy to be alive as she said.

Lu Jinan gently stroked her back, letting her cry, laugh, or mutter to herself.

After a while, she looked at Lu Jinan with strange excitement in her eyes.

She said, "An'er, your second uncle must like that child very much, otherwise he wouldn't have given her the jade pendant that symbolizes his status."

Without waiting for Lu Jinan to answer, he grabbed his hand and said, "An'er, from now on you must take good care of her. As long as she is here, your second uncle will come back to see her at any time. Maybe we can meet him too!"

"Mother……"

"You must promise me soon. You will keep her safe in the future so that your second uncle can come back!" Princess Jing interrupted him.

It seemed that if Jiang Luo could live safely, Xie Yuanqing would come back, and she would definitely be able to see Xie Yuanqing alive.

Lu Jinan had no choice but to nod and said helplessly: "Okay, son will promise you."

Princess Jing then let go.

She seemed to have thought of something again, and walked towards the door while shouting: "Qingyun, hurry up, take me to the warehouse..."

"Mother." Lu Jinan called out.

Princess Jing looked back at him and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

He shook his head and said, "Nothing. I just want to tell you that Jiang Luo is going to see Uncle Wu off tomorrow. If you go too early, you might not be able to see her."

"I'll go later, you don't have to worry." Princess Jing waved her hand and left.

Lu Jinan looked at his mother differently than before, as if he was a drowning man who had grabbed a piece of duckweed, his eyes filled with hope.

He thought that it was better for his mother to be like this, at least she was no longer a cold person.

The next day, Jiang Luo got up early in the morning.

She stood in front of the bronze mirror and let Mingxu and Rendong dress her up. After finishing breakfast, she left the house with Mother Wu and Mingxu.

Third uncle is returning to Jiangnan today, and she wants Mother Wu to meet the people of Jiangnan.

The reason for leaving the house today was to deliver a letter, and the carriage was prepared early by Second Madam Liu.

Now Qin's mind is all on Jiang Huai, and Liu is in charge of all the general affairs of the Duke's Mansion.

Liu is also getting better.

She was originally a lady from a wealthy family and had learned a lot about managing household affairs in her boudoir. However, she had been suppressed by Qin for so many years and had no chance to show her talents.

After the master and his servants left the mansion, they boarded the Duke's carriage and slowly drove out of the city.

Ever since the last time the person Liu sent to follow her was discovered by Rendong and beaten up, he returned to report three days later. Since then, she has not seen him following her when she went out.

Now that Nanxing is here, I am not afraid of the tail.

An incense stick's worth of time passed after Jiang Luo's carriage drove away. Then another carriage drove out of the Duke's Mansion and headed towards the east of the city.

Jiang Yin sat in the carriage, talking and laughing, all the sadness she had felt in the past few days gone.

"Miss, it seems that the Ningyang Marquis' Mansion really hates the eldest lady. The Jiayang County Lady only invited you out to play, and there was no place for the eldest lady." Zi Fu said sarcastically.

Jiang Yin snorted coldly and said with disdain: "Jiang Luo, that bitch, has a bad reputation. Ningyang Marquis Mansion will never mistake fish eyes for pearls."

"Yes, in my eyes, young lady, you are the pearl..." Zi Fu complimented.

Jiang Yin became even more proud because of her words.

Chan Yi was silently pouring tea for her young lady.

Otherwise, Zi Fu would be more respectable in front of Jiang Yin. Everyone likes to hear nice things.

Outside the city, Shili Pavilion.

Jiang Luo got off the carriage and saw his third uncle was already waiting there.

She looked at the weather-beaten man in the pavilion, her eyes felt sore and tears welled up in her eyes.

In her previous life, except for the day she got married, when she left the Duke's Mansion alone, she was controlled by Qin's mother and daughter at all other times.

Now that I have lived my life again, I finally understand what it feels like to be unrestrained.

Besides, she was still a long way from living a truly reckless life.

Jiang Luo wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, then took Mother Wu to the pavilion.

Mother Wu was already in tears.

It has been sixteen years since she followed her wife from Jiangnan to Yongjing.

Although her relatives in Jiangnan had long since passed away, she still missed her hometown, especially after her wife passed away.

"Third Master, I am guilty. I did not take good care of the young lady..." Mother Wu knelt in front of Wu Yang and cried.

The young lady she was referring to at this time was Wu Qingrong, the youngest daughter of the Wu family.

Wu Yang was also very sad when he heard this.

He walked forward, helped Mother Wu up, and said, "The dead are gone, you don't have to blame yourself anymore. Now you have to take good care of Yaoyao for Rong'er, so as not to let her trust in you go unnoticed."

Mother Wu wiped her face and replied firmly, "Don't worry, Third Master. Please also tell First Master and Second Master that I will definitely live up to your trust. Even if I sacrifice my life in the future, I will definitely keep the young lady safe."

Wu Yang nodded and said, "I will definitely pass it on for you."

Only then did Mother Wu retreat to the side of the carriage.

They were the only two people left in the pavilion, the uncle and the nephew.

Wu Yang looked at Jiang Luo, whose eyes were slightly red, and walked forward to touch her head, forcing a smile and saying, "Yaoyao, now that Third Uncle is gone, I don't know when he will be able to see you again. There are always dirty things in the mansions of the rich and powerful, so you must think twice before you act, and protecting yourself is the first priority."

Jiang Luo nodded with tears in her eyes.

Wu Yang felt so distressed when he saw this. He added in a hoarse voice, "In the future, you will have those two maids by your side to protect you. Your uncle and second uncle will feel more at ease. If you encounter something beyond our reach in the future, you can go to Princess Jing. She... has a sharp tongue but a soft heart."

Jiang Luo nodded again and replied in a tearful voice: "Third Uncle, Yaoyao has made note of it."

Wu Yang touched her head reluctantly again and sighed helplessly.

It would be great if the whole family could move to the capital, or bring Yaoyao back to Guangling.

Unfortunately, this is not something that can be accomplished overnight.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves entered everyone's ears.

The two people in the pavilion also looked in the direction of the sound.

Two horses were seen galloping on the official road. The man in front was wearing a scarlet brocade suit, and from a distance he looked extraordinary.

After a while, the two of them arrived.

"Whoa~" Lu Jinan stopped the horse ten steps away.

He dismounted, handed the whip in his hand to Xu Yuan who was following behind him, and strode towards the pavilion.

"Jingnian pays respects to Uncle Wu." Lu Jinan bowed and saluted.

"Nephew, there is no need to be so polite. Please stand up quickly." Wu Yangxu said, supporting his arm.

Lu Jinan also stood up following Wu Yang's hand.

"Jiang Luo greets Lord Lu." Jiang Luo said with a nasal tone.

Lu Jinan put one hand behind his back and gently raised the other hand, motioning for her to stand up.

He looked at the little girl in front of him with red eyes, his eyes moved slightly.

The little girl is crying?
