I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Prime Minister Lu frowned slightly and said indignantly:

"The general surnamed Sun can't even manage his own wife. He has already told us not to let Jianjia have any contact with him. It will take at least a month to go to Qiuzhou."

The more Madam Lu heard this, the more she felt something was wrong. She glared at Prime Minister Lu and said in a bad tone:

"Do you think that women should not show their faces in public and should only stay at home to take care of their husbands and children?"

"That's since..."

As soon as Prime Minister Lu said this, he realized something was wrong and quickly explained:

"I don't like Jianjia's association with the wife of the Grand Commandant Sun. If she hadn't stirred up those old stubborn Confucians, Mu Zhen would never have left the capital and never entered the court again."

Madam Lu rolled her eyes at Prime Minister Lu fiercely, not wanting to dwell on this topic, and asked,

"What do you mean by what you said just now? Do you want Jianjia to compete with Li Mu?"

Seeing Madam Lu asking, Prime Minister Lu did not hide it and nodded:

"That's exactly what I meant. This matter was instigated by the two of them, and Jianjia has turned the tide. If I can do a little more work, this marriage will definitely fail."

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Lu stroked his beard proudly, shook his head and said:

"Madam, you don't know that the sharpest knife in the world is the public opinion. Even Your Majesty cannot resist the public's resentment."

Mrs. Lu frowned in thought.

Ever since that day, when she saw Li Mu and Lu Jianjia meeting, she felt so happy in her heart.

Over the years, even Prime Minister Lu, as a father, had to sit behind a screen when meeting Lu Jianjia.

Since she was born, Lu Jianjia has been unwilling to associate with men.

As soon as Prime Minister Lu came close, she started crying.

This situation becomes more and more obvious as Lu Jianjia grows older.

Lu Jianjia would feel disgusted if an ordinary man was within three meters of her.

If he gets within ten feet, Lu Jianjia will attack instinctively.

And he has no idea how to control himself when he does it.

To this end, Prime Minister Lu and his wife secretly sought out many famous doctors.

However, most of the masters in this world are men.

Prime Minister Lu loved his daughter very much. Since there was no cure, he threatened:

"As long as Jianjia is happy, it doesn't matter if I raise her for a lifetime. Marriage is bullshit! Besides, there is no man in the world who is worthy of my daughter, Lu Chongyun!"

However, Mrs. Lu, as a mother, did not think so.

For women of this era, marriage, supporting their husbands and raising children are ingrained in their DNA.

After all, parents cannot accompany Lu Jianjia for her entire life, and they will always leave this world before Lu Jianjia.

Mrs. Lu, who had already given up hope, did not regain hope until she saw Lu Jianjia and Li Mu getting along that day.

I feel that this is the husband chosen by God for Lu Jianjia.

She thought Prime Minister Lu would share her thoughts, but she didn't expect...

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He simply put one hand on his waist, pointed at Prime Minister Lu and cursed:

"You old thing, are you crazy? His Majesty has issued an order to grant the marriage, and you dare to interfere. Do you want Jianjia to live out her life alone? Is this how you act as a father?"

Prime Minister Lu saw that Madam Lu was fine just now, but suddenly her expression changed, and he asked in confusion:

"Madam, what do you mean? What's Jianjia's situation like?"

Prime Minister Lu suddenly understood the key point halfway through his speech and said flatteringly with a smile:

"Madam, please don't be angry. Just listen to your husband's explanation."

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense. This matter is not negotiable. If you dare to interfere, I will divorce you!"

Madam Lu immediately turned around and was about to leave, fearing that she would have to fight with Prime Minister Lu in the next second.

"Madam, you misunderstood. The person who met Li Mu that day was not Jianjia, but the girl next to her."

Prime Minister Lu hurriedly caught up and explained.

Hearing this, Madam Lu paused and turned to look at Prime Minister Lu, her eyes full of confusion and scrutiny.

"After Li Mu left that day, Madam tried her best to persuade Jianjia to accept this marriage. Although Jianjia agreed verbally, I could tell at a glance that there must be something hidden behind it."

As Prime Minister Lu spoke, he held Madam Lu's hand in a flattering manner.

"As expected, Jianjia didn't even meet that boy. She asked her maid to take her to talk to Li Mu and asked him to cancel the marriage."

After hearing Prime Minister Lu's explanation, Mrs. Lu's heart skipped a beat. The hope that had finally been ignited was shattered again.

She knew clearly that Prime Minister Lu would never use these things to deceive her.

Then tears started to flow unconsciously.

"Why are the lives of my two daughters so miserable? Caiwei doesn't even have her parents to look at her, and Jianjia has contracted this unheard-of strange disease. Was it wrong for me to marry you from the beginning?"

Prime Minister Lu took Madam Lu into his arms lovingly and gently stroked her back.

He, who was always eloquent, didn't know how to start for a moment.

The couple hugged each other like this, letting the wind and snow hit them.

...

On the other hand, Liangdu, who had finally taken power, was also in a bad mood.

"Why has it been so long that not even one person has been able to infiltrate Li Mu's mansion? Is that exquisite waterside pavilion a den of dragons and tigers?"

In a dark room outside Jing'an City.

Liangdu smashed the table in front of him with one palm and roared angrily, completely losing his usual sage-like appearance.

Seeing this, the several men in black robes kneeling in front of him all trembled, but dared not make any sound.

"The Taoist priest just wants Li Mu to work for him. Although I don't know what's so special about Li Mu, I can see that the Taoist priest must have used the wrong method."

At this time, a young man's voice came from the shadows.

The man was hiding in the shadows, and his face could not be seen clearly. Judging from his voice and blurry figure, he should be a young boy.

Hearing this, Langdu chuckled without even looking at the man:

"You don't need to worry about how I do things."

The man in the shadows did not care about Liang Du's attitude and spoke slowly:

"I have already done what the Taoist priest asked me to do. I don't know if the Taoist priest has promised me..."

Liang Du impatiently took out a bamboo slip from his pocket and threw it into the shadows:

"Don't blame me for not explaining it in advance. If this method does not have the blood fruit grown on the border of the Gray Grassland as a medicine, the warriors that can be cultivated will be no more than the third level, and the life span of those who use this method will not exceed three years."

"That won't bother you, Taoist priest."

The man in the shadows took the bamboo slips, turned around and was about to leave, then continued walking and said:

"It's a pleasure to cooperate with you, Taoist priest. I would like to remind you again for free that there are many hidden talents in this capital city. You should be careful. Instead of wasting time here, you should start with Li Mu directly."

Liangdu frowned but didn't say anything.

After the man left, he turned his head and looked at the men in black robes kneeling on the ground and said:

"Is there any news from Qiuzhou?"

"According to your Excellency's wishes, the winner of this Snowy Gathering will be able to enter the third floor."

A black-robed man on the ground replied.

"Where are the people monitoring Gongsun Guangda?"

Liang Du asked again.

"Gongsun Guangda has entered the Gray Grassland."

The response came from the black-robed man's slightly flattering voice.

Liangdu frowned and subconsciously touched his chest. For the first time, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.

He immediately stood up and looked at the black-robed man who had been answering the question: "The capital city is now in your charge. Find a way to insert spies into Linglong Waterside Pavilion."

Hearing this, the black-robed man trembled and kowtowed quickly: "Thank you for your cultivation, sir!"

After saying that, Liangdu ignored him and walked out of the house.

He took out a palm-sized jade bottle from his bosom, remained silent for a long time, and then muttered to himself:

"This is the last thing I can do for you. I hope you won't blame me."

Then he leaped towards Yanshan City.
