One Thousand Six Hundred and Fifty-One: Receive Nansheng, Kill Anxi (61)

Prejudice and hatred accumulate over time. Even if Lu Zheng speaks dryly, Kang Xintong will not understand her mother's painstaking efforts immediately, but she is willing to think about this matter from her mother's perspective with a fair mind. It can be regarded as a great progress.

The mother's matter can be left to think about later, Kang Xintong is more concerned about the present, for example——

"Do you want the slave family to be your concubine too, sir?"

Children are different from adults. When adults mention these things, most of them will cover them up implicitly, because they know that these things should not be publicized. It is shameful to even talk about them loudly. Children do not have so many worries and are more frank.

Lu Zheng patted her forehead with the palm of his hand, and clicked his tongue, "Huang-haired girl, she is not as tall as a human, so she really thinks she looks like a fairy? In this world, not every man is as ignorant as your stepfather. If you are eighteen or nineteen years old, I would like to think about it if you ask this question. Now you are eight or nine years old, and even a normal man looks down on you."

Kang Xintong blushed, and choked out a sentence, "My family is already twelve."

Lu Zheng rubbed the top of her hair.

"It's windy, let's go home."

"……promise."

Kang Xintong couldn't help but bury her thin and flushed cheeks in the cloak, a little redness appeared in the corners of her eyes.

Lu Zheng's mansion is much larger than that of Kang Xintong's stepfather, but it is also much simpler. No matter the gate or the main hall for entertaining guests, there are no decorations. It is very simple. There are only a few carved decorations on the walls. with elegance. On the other hand, Kang Xintong's stepfather wanted to display all the gold and silver artifacts won in the war outside, so that outsiders could see how rich his spoils were.

Thinking of this, Kang Xintong couldn't help thinking wildly.

Mr. Lu said that his mother is also a trophy, so stepfather always likes to make her dress up beautifully, and let her participate in those small gatherings of Mrs. Lou, isn't it also a kind of showing off? To show off your trophies is a noblewoman from a noble family, you must have good looks, you must be self-cultivated, and there is nothing wrong with you. On the other hand, those ladies are always a head shorter than their mothers...

"From tomorrow onwards, you will stay in the mansion as my adopted daughter." Lu Zheng took the hand stove handed over by the servant, and a burst of warmth dispelled the coldness of his fingertips with a strong gesture. He said, "My lord Apart from you and me, there is no third master. If there is any shortage on weekdays, you can go directly to the housekeeper. Except for the woman who sweeps the house, most of them are men, and you are a daughter's family. There should always be a few maids around to take care of the daily life , Tomorrow I will ask the housekeeper to pick a few from the dental shop, and you choose two to keep by your side..."

Kang Xintong stood on the spot, her skinny hands covered with red and purple chilblains, tightly clutching the hem of the clothes on both sides.

"Why is sir so nice to the slave family?"

She didn't suspect that Lu Zheng had any bad intentions, but she was very puzzled, why did Lu Zheng treat her so well? You need to know that people in this world, even parents who raise their children, originally intend to continue the bloodline and pass on the family line. There are probably very few people who are truly selfless.

Lu Zhengdao, "There's no particular reason, but to be honest, it's probably because I've been bored recently."

Kang Xintong was stunned, what's the reason?

Even though she didn't know what kind of identity Lu Zheng was, even someone like his stepfather, who was so violent and hard to persuade after being drunk, was very respectful to Lu Zheng, which showed that Lu Zheng should be a big shot. Shouldn't a big man be busy with everything and have no spare time?

Lu Zheng said again, "Why do you care so much? After all, it's not a bad thing for you, and you have nothing to make people plot."

Kang Xintong said in embarrassment, "My family has overestimated its own strength, and made my husband laugh."

Lu Zheng asked the housekeeper to clean up the guest house and let Kang Xintong stay temporarily.

Seeing that he hadn't left, Kang Xintong couldn't help being curious and asked a few more questions.

"Sir, you said earlier that you already have a family?"

Lu Zheng slowly blew the freshly brewed tea to cool down, and poured a cup for her by the way.

Kang Xintong has had a hard time these years, but in the early years she was spoiled and spoiled.

Sitting down at one end, the temperament cannot be faked, and one can tell that he has received an excellent education. Lu Zheng said casually, "Yes, but they're not here, it's too messy here, don't worry."

Kang Xintong put down her guard, she looked quite quiet, but her mouth was talkative, and she kept talking.

Lu Zheng couldn't help thinking of someone.

Kang Xintong knew how to behave, so she didn't ask too much about Lu Zheng's situation, but instead turned the topic to Jiang Pengji.

She clutched the teacup tightly with both hands, and said in a low voice, "Can you tell me more about that Liu Xi, sir?"

Lu Zheng was not surprised.

"She used to be my classmate."

Kang Xintong's eyes were already big, but now they were wider because of shock.

"Student? But isn't she a woman? How can she be a classmate with Mr.?"

Lu Zhengdao, "She was dressed up as a boy by his father since she was a child, and she didn't come out in broad daylight until many years ago."

"Could it be that the others are blind, and they didn't realize that she is my daughter's family..." Kang Xintong just finished speaking, seeing Lu Zheng's indescribable eyes, suddenly realized that he had said something wrong, and panicked to make amends, "...Mr. Not that you..."

"It's normal not to recognize her, after all... there is no other woman like her..."

At that time, masculinization of men was still prevalent, and Jiang Pengji blended in harmoniously.

As everyone knows, she is still the dream of many young and ignorant noble girls.

Lu Zheng seemed to think of something, his expression twisted for a moment.

Although he didn't get along with Jiang Pengji for a long time, she managed to cast a nightmarish shadow on Lu Zheng during this relationship.

The loss is the loss, and Lu Zheng did not deny everything about Jiang Pengji.

"Liu Xi didn't have much reputation when he was young. When he went to Hejian County to inquire around, most people only vaguely knew that there was such a gentleman who lived in the inner house for a long time. Mr. Xixi was a famous scholar in Dongqing, Wei Yuan, and more, Then I couldn’t find out.” Lu Zhengdao, “When I was twelve years old, I started to bloom, I trained trilogy, cleared up the bandits, and worshiped my teacher Yuan Jing. Three years later, there were frequent civil strife in Dongqing, and the three tribes in northern Xinjiang were aggressive. Liu Xi’s concubine gave him a marriage Wuma Jun, the fourth prince of Dongqing, replaced her father Liu She to marry her concubine sister. Not long after, she was placed under house arrest in Beijing."

"House arrest?"

Kang Xintong exclaimed.

Lu Zhengdao, "This involves the struggle between the two factions in the Dongqing Dynasty. The reasons for it are more complicated... In order to stabilize the power, the Emperor Dongqing ordered the gentry to send their sons to Beijing as hostages. Seeing this, it will restrain all parties. If you are interested in the future , but it can be studied and studied..."

"Then how did she get out of trouble?"

Lu Zhengdao, "I don't know what she thought of to get out of the predicament, because before I saw her move, there was an earthquake in Shangjing."

The earthquake in Shangjing, the royal family moved the capital, abandoned the abandoned capital and moved the capital to Chenzhou, and even abandoned the people on that land.

In the past, it was all about making small troubles, but the Shanghai Earthquake was the starting point for her to become famous all over the world.
