Chapter 294 Design (2)
"Zhiyi, you finally came to see us!"
Ning Yuer walked towards him with a smile in her eyes.
Lu Zhiyi ignored her and walked straight into the house, signaling the maid to close the door.
She didn't speak again until there were only three people left in the room: "Weren't you imprisoned in the ancestral hall before? Why did Leng Qingyu let you out? Did you promise something?"
"Leng Qingyu wants to ask me for something, but..."
Ning Yuer was about to answer when Lu Zhiyi said angrily, "Didn't I tell you that I would plead with her to let you leave the capital!
What did she ask you to do? You agreed without even consulting me. What if it affects my marriage? You..."
Seeing that Lu Zhiyi was really angry, Ning Yuer quickly comforted her, "Zhiyi, Zhiyi, don't be angry first, listen to what mother has to say, how could mother harm you!"
Lu Zhiyi suppressed the anger in his heart, turned around and sat on the chair, "You say!"
Ning Yuer also wanted to sit down.
But the wound on her hind leg was scabbing, and now was the time for it to recover. She hesitated for a moment, but still stood in front of Ning Yuer and said, "This matter came suddenly, and I didn't have time to discuss it with you. But mother always keeps your matter in mind, and it will definitely not affect your marriage with the third prince."
"What's going on?" Lu Zhiyi was very impatient.
Ning Yuer said quickly: "Actually, Leng Qingyu released me because she wanted something from me! She wanted me to go to the Ministry of Justice to clarify my relationship with your father.
He said I was just his cousin, not a concubine."
"She actually wants you to do this?" Lu Zhiyi was a little surprised.
"Now that Lu Changqing has been crowned king, they have the final say over the entire Lu Mansion. What impact does it have on her whether you and father have a private affair?
How she wants to deal with you is up to her!"
Ning Yuer disagreed with her point of view and shook her head, "How can it not have an impact? Leng Qingyu has been arrogant all her life because of your father's exclusive favor. How can she easily accept that he has another beloved!
Besides, she is just a merchant's daughter. How can she have the generosity of a rich girl? Knowing that your father has a childhood sweetheart like me, she must be trying every means to save the situation.
I thought, since she wants this face, I will fulfill her wish, using the identity of a concubine in exchange for your brother and I being able to stay safely in the capital, I think it is worth it. "
"You really believe her!"
Lu Zhiyi still had doubts in his heart.
"What if she regrets it after you clarify it for her?"
Ning Yuer quickly replied, "I've thought about this, too. When we go to court, I'll directly ask Changning and I to move back to Yongning Lane, and let the Lu family protect our safety.
In order to get me to testify, she had to agree.
That way, everyone would know where I was going.
If something happens to Chang Ning and I again under the protection of the Lu family, wouldn't that be the Lu family's problem?"
Lu Zhiyi listened and always felt that something was wrong.
However, Ning Yuer did not let her think too much and continued, “Mother thought about it and this is indeed the best solution.
Now that I am no longer Lu Tingen's mistress, I don't have to worry about Leng Qingyu's face anymore.
Even if she wanted to harm us, it wouldn't be as easy as it is now.
Mother really can't bear to leave you alone in the capital, and your brother and I are worried about you."
After Ning Yuer finished speaking, Lu Changning immediately nodded in agreement.
Lu Zhiyi was upset and said coldly: "Now that things have come to this, if you want to stay, then stay.
But you have to remember that you are only Lu Changning's mother, not my mother. If you say something like that again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Ning Yuer then realized that she had just said something wrong.
She raised her hand and slapped herself hard on the face: "You stinky mouth, if you can't control yourself again, you deserve to be beaten!"
Lu Changning went up and held Ning Yuer, shouting, "Mom! What are you doing!"
He held her hand to stop her from hitting him any further.
Lu Zhiyi couldn't bear to watch this, so she had to remind him again: "Since you have reached an agreement with Leng Qingyu, then remember your own identity. Don't call yourself mother in front of me in the future, and don't be too close to me!"
Ning Yuer was a little sad. "Although you are not my daughter anymore, I am still your aunt. It's okay for me to care about you, right?"
Lu Zhiyi became more and more impatient. "What's the point of you caring about me? Do you have money? Can you buy me a dowry? If you can't do anything, don't always lean forward!"
Ning Yuer was stunned by this sentence. She watched Ning Yuer walk out the door and leave the yard with the help of the maid.
"Mom, my sister seems unhappy?"
Lu Changning said as he looked at Lu Zhiyi's back.
Ning Yuer calmed down and said softly, "It's okay, she is pregnant now and easily irritable.
It will be fine after this period of time!"
……
Lu Zhiyi had just left when Leng Qingyu received the news.
Ding Qiao reported everything he had just seen.
"You mean, she stayed in the house for a short time and then left? Did the mother and son follow her out?"
"No!" Ding Qiao replied.
"Did the new security guard see this scene?" Leng Qingyu asked.
"I saw it. I was far away just now because I was afraid that the guards would find out where I was. As soon as the second young lady entered the yard, Guard Zhang jumped onto the big tree next to the yard. After the second young lady left, he also left quietly."
"Okay! Keep an eye on them for the next few days. It's best not to let Lu Zhiyi and Ning Yuer have too much contact. When Zhang Qian finds someone, we'll put on a good show for this Guardian Zhang."
"Yes!"
Ding Qiao received the order, stood up and left.
In the room, Lu Changqing watched him leave lightly before asking, "Mother, how did you know that Guardian Zhang was suspicious? Wasn't he found by the housekeeper in the martial arts hall? How could he be the Third Prince's man?"
Leng Qingyu looked at his son and sighed helplessly.
"I told you to concentrate on your studies, but I didn't tell you to ignore what's happening outside. The current Zhang Huyuan is no longer the same person as before!"
"Replacement?"
Lu Changqing was shocked.
He thought about it carefully and realized that he had not paid much attention to the appearance of this security guard, but he seemed to be no different from before.
Besides, the other party is so bold to replace people right under their noses!
"In fact, it was Ding Qiao who discovered it at the beginning." Leng Qingyu explained, "The original Zhang Huyuan was indeed a martial arts instructor, and his kung fu was average.
But Ding Qiao discovered the day before yesterday that the way Guardian Zhang walks is very different from before."
"This... I really haven't noticed it before! How big of a difference can there be in the way we walk!"
Leng Qingyu thought for a moment, "Actually, I didn't notice it either, but Ding Qiao said that people with profound skills walk lightly, which is very different from us ordinary people."
