Chapter 184 Just to Protect That Person
Seeing the man's thoughts, the girl hurriedly explained to him: "It's not that I'm jealous, it's just that I don't get to see my cousin on weekdays."

"I want to be here, but I haven't lived here long enough. There are no rules here, and I feel comfortable."

Lu Ji frowned: "It's just that whenever I see you two together, I feel uncomfortable."

For example, today when he was having dinner at Yuhuatai, he saw his little girl eating at the same table with the daughter of the Wang family. He felt very uncomfortable, and the meal tasted like wax.

On the other hand, the little girl looked nonchalant.

She actually enjoyed eating the food prepared by her love rival and even said that she cared about herself?
Only a fool would believe him.

Really heartless.

Glancing at the man's bottomless eyes, the girl immediately assured: "I'm telling the truth."

"Don't think I don't have you in my heart. When we had dinner together today, the elders were here, so I had to behave in a more sensible way. Otherwise, my wife would be unhappy."

I can understand what he is thinking.

Can understand him.

Hearing this, Lu Ji's expression gradually eased. Seeing that he was getting better, the little girl continued, "Do you think I like the food cooked by the Wang family girl? If there were no outsiders around, I would not eat a single bite. Not only that, I can't allow you to eat. You can only eat the food I cook. Why should the Wang family girl cook for you when she has only been here for a few days?"

He described it vividly and his expression was one of displeasure.

Lu Ji smiled and raised his hand to pinch her face: "Of course I only like to eat the food made by Ning."

Looking at the whole world, Lu Ji is probably the only one who hopes that his concubine will be restless.

"Of course, only the food cooked by Ning is the best for the prince's taste."

The girl spoke softly. She tugged at the man's sleeves again, shaking them gently, and acted coquettishly towards him: "Please, let me stay here for a few more days. I promise I won't be naughty, and I won't bother with that Wang girl."

He knew that she was trying to please him on purpose, but every time he saw her like this, Lu Ji had no resistance.

After hesitating for a moment, he coaxed her, "If you don't want to go back home, I can take you to the house in Donghu. It's also very fun there."

All the little girl wanted was to not be bound by the rules of the upper class and not have to be so cautious every day. When she heard that there was a better place to go, she was naturally overjoyed.

The little girl threw herself into the man's arms and said, "How can you be so good? There is really no other man as good as you in the world."

Lu Ji hummed and said, "Didn't you say on the way back just now that all the gentlemen out there are better than me?"

The little girl narrowed her eyes and said coquettishly: "I was just angry."

As she said this, she stood on tiptoe to kiss him again. Her soft lips touched his lips little by little. The faint fragrance made him dizzy. The man put his big hands around her slender waist and then kissed her passionately.

Gradually, her small hands began to undress him slowly, very slowly, and her delicate fingertips touched his skin, and the man could not help himself instantly.

He pressed the man onto the table with his backhand.

The rough big hands held her soft and boneless waist.

After a while, the little woman who was being held down couldn't bear it anymore and begged him in a low voice: "I want to go to the bed."

Knowing that she never liked this position, the man still followed her advice and carefully picked her up by the waist. The little woman was as soft as a puddle of water, almost lying in his arms.

It was so good outside. There were far fewer servants than in the mansion. The little woman had no scruples and let him ask for her madly, lying under him and moaning softly. The window in the room was open, and there was a waterfall outside. The sound of the "gurgling" water flowed into the room, mixed with the little woman's coquettish calls.

It's rare for a little woman to let go. After the man asked for it once, she asked for it again.

The man didn't give up until the little woman was so tired that she began to beg him intermittently.

Both of them were happy and satisfied.

It's really nice to have no one to disturb you and just the two of you.

That night, the little woman slept very soundly, and Lu Ji also slept very well, but he was used to getting up early. He woke up at dawn the next day, packed up everything quietly, and then rode to court.

Before leaving, he did not forget to remind the servant to keep an eye on the girl and not let her be greedy for the peach blossom wine he brought back yesterday.

After the morning court session, Lu Ji received an imperial decree to go to the harem to meet Concubine Shu.

Because of Jiangyou, Prime Minister Jiang was impeached by the censors and a long list of charges were laid against him. However, the emperor still did not punish him severely. He only fined him some of his salary and ordered Prime Minister Jiang to reflect on his mistakes in seclusion for half a year.

Without the Jiang family, the Lu family will dominate.

This is what the saint least wants to see.

When Concubine Shu met Lu Ji, she couldn't wait to tell him about the things in the palace.

Because of Prime Minister Jiang, Concubine Duan was reprimanded by the emperor, but he only fined her salary. However, the emperor entrusted an important task to Prince Jin, who was born to Concubine Duan.

"I really don't know what your majesty is thinking?" Concubine Shu sighed.

Lu Ji said: "It just allows our two families to continue fighting."

Concubine Shu was puzzled: "I know that's his plan, but he is already over 40 years old, and the position of crown prince has been vacant. The only adult princes are Prince Jin and Pan'er. Even if he lets us fight, he has to consider the position of crown prince."

As she spoke, Concubine Shu said angrily, "Prince Ning has been killed by him. Now, apart from the congenitally disabled Prince Qing, only Prince Jin and Pan'er are qualified to be the crown prince. If he doesn't choose from these two sons, does he want to have another one?"

Lu Ji said: "Eldest sister guessed correctly, Zhao Che must really have this plan."

As he spoke, he told Concubine Shu all the harem secrets that Wang Fengyi had told him that day.

Concubine Shu was stunned. It took her a long while to come back to her senses. But she couldn't believe it: "Impossible, you said that Zhao Che loved Concubine Jing the most? To protect her? To avenge her son?"

"Haha, that old Concubine Jing who can't even make a sound when hit with a stick?"

"Brother, I will believe anyone you say, but I don't believe you when you say it's Concubine Jing."

A hundred concubines combined could not be half as scheming as Zhao Che.

This eldest sister, who has lived in the deep palace for more than ten years, would not be able to spy out these secrets even if she had another ten years.

Zhao Che kept these women completely hidden.

It was just to protect Concubine Jing.

"Not only my elder sister doesn't believe it, I'm afraid that all the women in this palace don't know what Zhao Che is thinking." Lu Ji sneered: "Even the Concubine Chen, who was exterminated and trapped in the cold palace, probably doesn't know why she ended up in such a tragic end."

After hearing this, Concubine Shu gradually recovered from her shock and said to herself, "You are right. Zhao Che's method of dealing with Concubine Chen is indeed incredible. The death of Concubine Jing's child seems to be closely related to Concubine Chen."
