After entering the book, the cold prince begs for favor
Chapter 37 Encountering an Arrogant Thief
Lu Jiangnian looked back and saw three people standing behind him, one man and two women.
He didn't know the woman, but the man was Liang Yusong's cousin, Liang Nian, the second son of her uncle Liang Shangde.
Liang Shangde was a concubine's son of the Duke of Weiguo and did not hold any official position. Five years ago, when he returned to Beijing, he happened to see Liang Nian fighting with someone. Liang Nian's desperate ruthlessness made Lu Jiangnian remember him immediately.
At that time, Mrs. Zhaohua's nephew Chen Zhengquan led several people to surround Liang Nian and beat him. Liang Nian was no match for the four hands with his two fists. Although he refused to admit defeat, he was still knocked down.
Lu Jiangnian taught Chen Zhengquan a lesson and resolved Liang Nian's crisis.
He and Liang Nian did not have a deep friendship. He just nodded lightly and turned to look at Yuan Wanru, who was walking slower than a turtle.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed, he flashed over there, and caught a thief who was trying to slip away.
He didn't know that the gentle woman next to Liang Nian just opened her mouth and said to him: "I haven't been able to thank you in person, thank you very much..."
The man had gone far away. The woman bit her lip and stared at his back as he left without hesitation, only to see that he actually took the initiative to approach a pretty girl.
The crowd was noisy and she couldn't hear what Lu Jiangnian said from a distance.
From a distance, she saw Lu Jiangnian's face, which seemed tense and very angry, but from his words and actions, she could already sense his concern for the woman.
Liang Nian saw her dejection and looked towards Lu Jiangnian with narrowed eyes.
"Sister, stop looking, let's go in."
Next to Liang Nian were his elder sister Liang Yuhua and younger sister Liang Yulu.
He was sensitive and had long noticed his sister's feelings for Lu Jiangnian, but he did not expose them.
Because this marriage is destined to have no ending.
Although they were born in the Duke of Wei's Mansion, and their aunt, Concubine Liang, served the emperor for many years, held the rank of the first rank, and gave birth to the second prince Murong Xiao, what did these honors have to do with them?
Everyone in the mansion looked down on the second branch of the family and thought his father was good for nothing.
Outside, many people mocked his father, saying that he was a loser.
The father and son of the Loyal and Brave Marquis were brave and fought on the battlefield, killing countless enemies and enjoying great glory. How could they be worthy of the famous Lu Jiangnian?
He didn't want to hurt his sister's feelings, so he pretended not to know. He hoped that one day, his sister would be able to think clearly and let go of this relationship.
Liang Yuhua looked at him helplessly and wanted to turn around and leave immediately, but she couldn't bear to do so and looked at him one more time.
But she saw the man she loved deeply opened his mouth and ate what the girl fed him, with an intimate attitude and deep feelings.
That girl must be the Crown Prince’s wife Yuan Wanru.
Liang Yuhua felt very sad, but she couldn't help but sigh that the two of them were really a perfect match.

Xiangyuan Temple was crowded with people on the Qixi Festival. Naturally, vendors would not miss such a good opportunity and set up stalls outside the Xiangyuan Temple.
Just now at Qingfeng Tower, before the three of them had time to eat a few bites of food, Princess Le'an arrived. When they saw the snacks, their gluttony began to rise.
"The osmanthus cake smells so good."
Liu Yan sighed, his eyes glued to the sweet-scented osmanthus cake. The snow-white cake was dotted with tiny osmanthus flowers, which was elegant and delicious, making people's mouths water.
Yuan Wanru smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but stop.
"It smells really good. Let's buy a few and try them."
When I got closer, I saw that the osmanthus cake was really well made.
Liuzhi paid the money, and Yuan Wanru had already eaten a small piece. It was soft, sweet and not greasy. The aroma of rice and osmanthus blended together, leaving a lingering fragrance on the lips and teeth.
Liu Yan couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "Madam, this osmanthus cake is even more delicious than the one in the mansion."
Yuan Wanru nodded in agreement: "That's right, let's buy some more and bring them back for mother to try."
Just then, she felt someone bumped into her waist, and then something seemed to be taken away. She realized that it was a thief.
She quickly stuffed the osmanthus cake in her hand into her mouth, freeing her hand to grab someone, but heard a cry of pain from behind: "Ah!"
When she turned around, she saw Lu Jiangnian standing beside her without her noticing, holding a half-grown child in his arms, with a stern look on his face.
The jade pendant in the child's hand was exactly the white jade pendant that Lu Bai had given him as a wedding gift.
Yuan Wanru suddenly remembered that this morning, Aunt Pang insisted that she take this with her, saying that it was good for Yu Yi.
Fortunately, it was not lost. Not only was the item valuable, but it was also a thoughtful gift from Uncle Lu.
She smiled and said, "Thanks to your sharp eyes, otherwise I might not have caught him."
A thief of this age is very clever. Even if she reacted, she might not be able to catch him in time.
Lu Jiangnian glanced at her coldly. She smiled sweetly and softly, with a bit of snow-white osmanthus cake on the corner of her mouth. She looked a little silly and cute.
He just felt that the early autumn sunshine had a dryness that made him feel dizzy.
He was angry and said in a bad tone: "In a place like this, there are so many people and it's hard to find something if you lose it."
"Is there no food in the house? One or two of you, don't you wake up?"
He suppressed the thief with one hand, and took off the jade pendant with the other hand and handed it to Liuzhi.
Lu Jiangnian's expression was very fierce, and Liu Zhi felt a surge of fear in his heart.
She put her palms together, palms facing up, took the jade pendant, squatted down and tied it back around Yuan Wanru's waist.
Liuzhi secretly warned himself not to be so careless in the future and to always pay attention to avoid such things from happening again.
Seeing that he was too serious, Yuan Wanru smiled and said, "It's this late, I'm hungry."
"Besides, this osmanthus cake is better than the one in the mansion. I will buy some more and bring it back to mother and Aunt Pang."
She saw Liu Yan holding the osmanthus cake she had just bought, so she reached out and took a piece and handed it to Lu Jiangnian: "Try it."
Lu Jiangnian became even angrier. He had helped her vent her anger at Qingfeng Tower. She even remembered Aunt Pang, so how could she forget to bring some for him as well?
He really has no conscience.
Although he thought so in his heart, he still opened his mouth with a stern face and ate the osmanthus cake she handed to him.
Accidentally, he sucked her finger.
He felt that it seemed softer than osmanthus cake.
Yuan Wanru was slightly stunned, quickly pulled her hand away, took out a handkerchief and wiped it as if nothing had happened.
Lu Jiangnian's eyes were dark and he felt a little strange.
She lowered her eyes to look at the thief: "You have good taste. You took a fancy to my jade pendant at first sight."
The thief looked defiant, not worried about his situation at all. He said maliciously, "It's just bad luck that I was caught by you."
"Don't you see who owns Xiangyuan Temple? If you know what's good for you, just let me go and we can all live in peace."
"Otherwise, when my godfather comes, you'll be in trouble!"
It seems that this is a gang crime.
Yuan Wanru ignored him and looked at Lu Jiangnian: "Husband, this thief has some backers. Why don't we wait for his godfather to come and see who this godfather is?"
She just said it casually and didn't actually intend to waste time on it. She just wanted to hand the thief over to the authorities.
Unexpectedly, the thief was so arrogant that he actually said, "Okay, whoever doesn't wait is a coward."
"My godfather likes women like you with delicate skin and tender flesh the most. When the time comes, I will see you kneeling and begging for mercy."
This sentence first angered Lu Jiangnian.
He exerted force on his hand, and with a snap, the thief's wrist was broken.
"what!"
The thief's face turned pale as he shouted, "If you dare to touch me, my godfather will not let you go."
"Xuanying, shut his stinky mouth and hang him in the most conspicuous place."
He wanted to see who was so arrogant.
