Chapter 255 King Miao helps out
Meng Qianqian curled her lips and gently took his hand: "Let's go find Ji Li and Si She."
Lu Yuan's ears were red all the way to his neck, but fortunately they were covered by his collar.
He said without changing his expression: "I won't go, the governor."
"Go ahead and buy you candied haws."
Meng Qianqian coaxed softly.
Lu Yuan's face sank: "Meng Xiaojiu!"
Meng Qianqian: "I was wrong."
After all, Lu Yuan was led into the carriage by Meng Qianqian.
Meng Qianqian finally understood that the three generations of ancestors and grandsons all had to eat soft things rather than hard things, so they had to follow the rules.
When they arrived at Feng Shui Alley, Ji Li and Si She were not there.
"I'm out again, very busy."
Meng Qianqian touched the dust on the table and speculated that they went out on the day of the emperor's wedding.
Meng Qianqian went to visit Granny Feng and Uncle Lei, but they did not return to the alley until dark, so Meng Qianqian left a letter in the house.
Thinking of something, Meng Qianqian took out a few more coins and stuffed them into the envelope.
Lu Yuan looked at her with confusion.
Meng Qianqian explained: "Leave some food money for them."
Lu Yuan thought for a while and took out a gold ingot from his arms.
Meng Qianqian quickly stopped her: "No, if you give me so much, I'm afraid the house will catch on fire."
Ji Li is destined to have five disadvantages and three deficiencies, and he will be unlucky if he has too much money.
Poor Sishe, the young master who was originally rich and powerful became starved for food after following Ji Li.
The corner of Lu Yuan's mouth twitched: "He is so unlucky, can he find someone?"
Meng Qianqian said firmly: "Don't worry, he is the best at finding people!"
After all, his ability was exchanged for a fate with five disadvantages and three shortcomings.
After leaving Feng Shui Alley, Meng Qianqian turned west.
Lu Yuan said: "That's not the way back home."
"I know, I'm going to buy candied haws."
"I don't eat such childish things!"
Meng Qianqian raised her eyebrows: "Oh, I bought them for Tan'er and Baoshu."
Lu Yuan: "..."
Zhuque Street is particularly lively tonight, with traffic and traffic, major shops decorated with lights, vendors shouting and selling, and it is full of the atmosphere of thousands of lights.
"Hey."
Meng Qianqian opened her eyes wide.
Lu Yuan seemed to notice her surprise and said calmly: "Every August there is a lantern festival on Zhuque Street, which lasts until the end of the Mid-Autumn Festival. These days are not very beautiful, but the Mid-Autumn Festival is the grand event."
Meng Qianqian suddenly realized: "That's it."
Lu Yuan glanced at her: "You have lived in the capital for several years, have you never visited the Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Festival?"
Meng Qianqian shook her head.
The Lu family had many rules, and she was a widow, so the old lady never allowed her to go out and watch the fun.
"What kind of life did you spend in the Lu family?"
Lu Yuan muttered coldly and squeezed through the crowd.
A young man turned back and glared at him: "What are you doing?"
Lu Yuan said coldly: "Looking at the lanterns, are they looking at you?"
The young man said angrily: "Hey - how can you talk?"
Meng Qianqian smiled hurriedly and said: "Little brother, my husband took me to watch the lantern festival for the first time. I was a little excited. Please forgive me."
Reaching out to avoid hitting the smiling man, the young man said to Lu Yuan: "Your wife still knows how to talk! Is this your first time? Okay, you guys stand in front."
Lu Yuan did his part and pulled Meng Qianqian to stand in the front row.
"Who is it? Such a big guy is blocking the way! I can't even see the riddle!"
Someone behind was shouting dissatisfiedly.
Lu Yuan stood tall among the crowd, motionless.
The young man turned around and said to the crowd: "This is the first time for the young man to show his wife the lanterns, so don't be ridiculous!"
Meng Qianqian gave a thumbs up: "Brother, you are loyal."
"Which one do you want?" Lu Yuan asked coldly.
The young man was stunned for a moment, then asked Meng Qianqian on the other side over Lu Yuan: "Is your man talking to me?"
Meng Qianqian smiled and nodded: "My husband wants to give you a lamp to express his gratitude."
The young man looked Lu Yuan up and down. Seeing that the other person was dressed luxuriously, he knew that he was either rich or noble.
However, he just smiled and shook his head: "The lanterns here are not bought with money, they are obtained by guessing lantern riddles. Everyone has been standing here for half an hour, and not a single guess has been correct..."
Less than a quarter of an hour later, the young man held countless lanterns in his hands and watched dumbfoundedly as Lu Yuan and Meng Qianqian retired.
It rained heavily during the night and the weather became cooler.
Lu Yuan's cold syndrome occurs several times every autumn and winter. When it occurs, there is a slight chill even in the joints of his bones.
He had long been accustomed to cold limbs.
However, when he woke up, his cold palm was held by a warm hand.

His eyes moved, and he looked at the roof of Yuanyang's tent with a complicated expression. After a while, he took her hand away, gently lifted the quilt and got down to the ground.

Today is the first morning court meeting after the emperor's wedding.
The court hall was very lively.
When Zong Zhengxi saw that all the officials were present and no one was missing, he immediately announced an imperial edict to re-investigate the Chu family case. Unexpectedly, he was opposed by the court officials.
"Your Majesty, the Chu family case was handled during the reign of the Supreme Emperor. The evidence is conclusive and Mrs. Chu is the murderer. Now that you want to overturn the case, you are questioning the Supreme Emperor and the criminal officer who worked hard and worked hard for the court!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, this is against filial piety!"
The Minister of Personnel and the Minister of Hubu successively raised objections.
Immediately afterwards, the Minister of Industry and the Ministry of War also held the wat board and asked Zong Zhengxi to withdraw his order.
The Minister of Rites is a cunning old man who pretends to be dead behind closed eyes.
Zong Zhengxi frowned and looked at the Minister of War: "Huo Aiqing, don't you agree with my decision too?"
Zong Zhengxi never expected the opposition from the Minister of War. He had always trusted the Minister of War, and the Minister of War also stood firmly by his side, helping him fight against the former Lu Yuan.
Naturally, he now knows that Lu Yuan is not what he seems on the surface.
Huo Shangshu said: "I am doing this for your Majesty's sake."
Zong Zhengxi's eyes swept over everyone: "Do others also want to object?"
The ministers all knelt down holding the wat tablets in their hands: "Your Majesty, please take back your order—"
The Minister of Rites looked around. The one in front knelt, the one on the left knelt, the one on the right and the one behind him also knelt.
Should I kneel or not?
He winked at Shangshu Xing in a low voice: Lao Xing, what do you say?
Xing Shangshu did not kneel down.
But as the number of officials kneeling down gradually increased, and seeing that there were only a few left, the Minister of Rites flashed his eyes, and went away with the wat board in his hands to count.
In the end, only Lu Yuan, Xun Xiangguo, Xing Shangshu, Lin Jijiu, and Wang Yushi were left standing upright in the court hall.
Zong Zhengxi opened his mouth and said, "Are the ladies agreeing to re-investigate the Chu family's case?"
Xiangguo Xun said sincerely: "Your Majesty, I have just returned to the capital, but I still listen to you adults."
"Hahaha! A high-ranking Prime Minister actually wants to listen to others. Are you so humble?"
The Miao King swaggered into the Jinluan Palace and bowed to the young emperor, "I have met your Majesty!"
Zong Zhengxi said: "The king of Miao is in peace."
King Miao took Lu Yuan to and from court every day, but he never came to Jinluan Palace. Everyone was quite surprised to see him.
Not only that, he also changed his usual appearance of an old farmer, wearing Miao ethnic uniform and carrying a strange large box on his back.
King Miao glanced at everyone and said, "Your Majesty, your court officials really like to blackmail the emperor."
Huo Shangshu said seriously: "King Miao, please be careful what you say! We are admonishing your majesty not to violate filial piety."
King Miao frowned and approached Lu Yuan: "Grandson, my son cannot overturn the case I am handling. Is that what he means?"
Lu Yuan: "Almost."
King Miao suddenly realized it and said with great wit: "That means Grandpa can flip?"
Everyone looked at King Miao strangely, and saw that as soon as he finished speaking, he immediately pulled out the large wooden box on his back, opened it and took out a dragon-patterned green-edge sword.
"Shang Fang's sword is here! Seeing it is like seeing the Supreme Emperor!"
Everyone changed color.
Xiangguo Xun immediately knelt down.
