After walking around for a while... and confirming that Ankang Gonggui had left... Lu Heng took Liu Qingqing back to the garden.
Seeing her uncle being so frightened by Princess Ankang, Liu Zheqing was both amused and angry.
From a woman's intuition point of view, Princess Ankang obviously has evil intentions towards her uncle. It's ridiculous that her uncle still looks frightened and doesn't know anything.
Turning her head, Liu Qingqing felt a little suspicious in her heart when she looked at her uncle who had returned to his usual calm demeanor.
Uncle didn't do it on purpose, right?
With this thought in mind, her beautiful eyes were fixed on Lu Heng.
"What's wrong?" Lu Heng saw the woman looking at him like this. Lu Heng lowered his head and looked at his clothes. There was no problem.
"Nothing!" Liu Qingqing smiled slightly, looked away, and said lightly.
"Really?" Lu Heng stretched out his hand to hold the woman's shoulder and looked at her with a smile.
"It's true!" The woman's big eyes blinked, and it seemed that it was really true.
Seeing how stubborn this woman was, Lu Heng smiled helplessly, put his hand on her shoulder, patted her with a little force, and said slowly: "Don't worry, it's okay!"
It may seem like a meaningless statement, but both the speaker and the listener know what it means.
As the wind blew by, Liu Qingqing raised her fingers and tucked the messy green hair on her forehead behind her ears. She smiled lightly on her bright cheeks, turned her head, looked at Lu Heng with a smile in her beautiful eyes, and said, "Uncle
You said it yourself!”
"Oh, I said that!" Lu Heng said lightly, holding the woman's waist.
In the peony garden, among the sea of blooming flowers, there are some pavilions for tourists to rest. Next to the pavilions, there are also some tea houses run by monks, naturally for the convenience of tourists.
The two of them sat down in the pavilion and ordered a pot of fragrant tea. They gently tasted the fragrant tea and enjoyed the wind blowing in their faces.
In the wind, the fragrance of flowers is strong... take a deep breath... and feel refreshed.
"Uncle!" Liu Qingqing put down the tea cup, retracted her beautiful eyes from a distance, and looked at Lu Heng with a smile.
"Huh?" Lu Heng looked at her with a smile.
In the bright spring light, the woman smiled sweetly, as beautiful as a fairy.
"Tell me, do those people know that we are looking at him?" Liu Qingqing smiled slightly, pointed to a man and a woman next to the peonies in the garden, and said softly.
"Huh... I guess you don't know!" Lu Heng followed the gaze pointed by Liu Qingqing... and saw that the talented man and the beautiful woman were talking and laughing affectionately. After looking away, he said with a smile: "Huh, he probably doesn't know.
It’s like, we don’t know if anyone is looking at us at this time?”
Seeing the woman looking around nervously, Lu Heng shook his head and smiled, indicating that she didn't have to be like this. He leisurely picked up the tea and took a sip, and said with a smile: "I'm watching the scenery on the bridge, and the people watching the scenery are watching me upstairs! That's right.
That’s the truth!”
Liu Qingqing was stunned for a moment... After thinking about it, she felt that this statement made sense. She took a sip of the fragrant tea, looked at the sea of flowers under the sun, and said softly: "Uncle's words can be said to be true.
All kinds of things in the world!"
Uh, is it that profound?
Seeing that the woman was deep in thought and silent... Lu Heng scratched his head in confusion and savored the words carefully... When he just said it, he really didn't mean anything else.
While he was guessing the woman's thoughts, a tall and extraordinary-looking warrior came over.
"May I ask, Master, who is Lu Heng or Lu Yongzheng?" After the warrior came over, he ran straight to Ba Heng and asked with a smile and clasped fists.
"Ha, brother, you're so polite!" Lu Heng cupped his fists and returned the greeting with a smile: "Just now in front of that temple, Lu didn't thank brother for his help!"
Well……
Hearing what the scholar said, the warrior smiled awkwardly: "Young master, have you seen it?"
"Well, my brother is very skilled, I admire him!" Lu Heng complimented with a smile.
Seeing the warrior scratching his head in embarrassment, Lu Heng said nothing else and asked directly: "But someone is looking for Lu?"
"Exactly!" The warrior nodded and said, "My master invites you to come over and talk to me!"
Although the warrior never said the name of his master, Lu Heng knew it very well in his heart.
Generally speaking, the two of them have never had direct contact. However, they must have been looking forward to this meeting for a long time.
"Let's go, let's go there!" Lu Heng said to Liu Qingqing with a smile.
"Ahem, young master!" Seeing that Lu Heng was going to take the woman there, the warrior looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
The master only invited him one, but now there is one more, what should I do?
Seeing the embarrassment on the warrior's face, Lu Heng smiled, looked at him and said, "Don't worry, your master knows!"
"Uh, okay!" The samurai was still uneasy. As he led the way, he thought about how to explain to his master with a grimace.
"Uncle, who is his master?" Liu Qingqing's nervous palms were filled with sweat, and she followed Lu Heng anxiously, asking in a low voice.
Well……
Seeing how nervous Liu Qingqing was, Lu Heng swallowed back the words that came to his lips.
After thinking about it, he held her hand and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, he's just an old man!" In front of him, Wu Shi, who was leading the way... was shocked when he heard Lu Heng call his master an old man...
...My feet were unsteady and I almost fell to the ground.
This scholar is so brave!
The three of them were in different moods. They walked silently through the sea of flowers, passed through an arch, and arrived at a small circle that was rarely visited by people.
After entering here, Liu Qingqing was surprised to find that the scenery here was more beautiful than any other garden outside.
But……
She glanced around and murmured in her heart: But why is there no one in this garden?
"Jia Huwei, are you here?" Just as he was wondering, he heard a loud voice coming from the front.
When Liu Qingqing heard this, she turned her head and looked in the direction where the sound came from.
I saw that at the end of the path was a small pavilion.
In the pavilion, two old people were sitting in front of the stone table, leisurely sipping tea and playing chess. One of them, Liu Qingqing had met, was the Lu Yushi when he was in Jiangning.
The person who spoke was an old man in his sixties with silver hair sitting opposite Censor Lu.
As soon as the old man spoke, he saw Lu Yushi standing up respectfully.
What was the identity of this old man, and why Lu Yushi was so respectful to him? Liu Qingqing was puzzled and turned around to look at her uncle.
Lu Heng smiled slightly, with a calm expression. He squeezed Liu Qingqing's fingers to signal her not to think too much.
"Well, I brought it here, but..." Jia Huowei glanced at the two people behind him awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
The old man put down the chess pieces, turned around and looked at the man and woman holding hands behind Jia Wewei. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly burst into laughter.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, but I was negligent!"
After waving his hand and asking Guard Jia to step aside, the old man pointed to the chess game in front of him and said to Lu Heng with a smile: "I've heard for a long time that Mr. Lu is very good at chess. Are you interested in talking about a game?"
There was no introduction to the first acquaintance, nor was there a serious and formal greeting, just a very ordinary greeting. It made people feel no trace of restraint.
"Haha, the old man has given you a reward!", Lu Heng clasped his fists and smiled, then nodded: "The elders have their destiny, how dare you disobey it?"
Stepping up the steps, he saw the warriors guarding the pavilion staring at Lu Heng, as if they were on guard against a powerful enemy.
The old man waved his hand to tell them not to do this. Then he turned his head, smiled and pointed at the chair originally made by Lu Yushi: "Sit down!"
Lu Heng didn't show any pretense, smiled, and pulled Liu Qingqing to sit down.
Behind him, Censor Lu saw Lu Heng's lack of etiquette and wanted to remind him, but when he saw Lao Qing's squinting eyes, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
He raised his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead, secretly worrying about the scholar.
After we sat down, a servant brought tea.
Lu Heng picked up the tea and smiled and nodded his thanks to the shiwei. However, the shiwei shivered in fright and almost lost his balance and dropped the teapot on the table.
The old man in front of him, seeing how kind the scholar was, had a faint smile with a hint of relief in his eyes. He waved his hand and let the samurai who had corrected the mistake go down.
Lu Heng took the lead and moved first. The old man glanced at Lu Heng's move, thought for a moment, and then made a move.
In fact, speaking of it, Lu Heng's Go game is not very good. At best, he is only at an average level. However, it is obvious that the old man in front of him is not very good either.
The two of them were going back and forth, just like two bad chess masters playing chess, fighting each other for a while and becoming inseparable.
On the side, Lu Yushi, a real Go master, secretly glanced at the chess game and saw that the game was full of loopholes, and neither of them was aware of it. He laughed, and then quickly pretended to cough and look solemn.
The old man held the black piece and looked at the messy chess game in front of him. He hesitated for a long time, but he didn't know where to go.
"This game...!" After all the black and white chess pieces were used up, there was still no winner.
The old man stared at the chess game for a long time. Seeing that it was still an intractable game, he shook his head and smiled. He raised his head and looked at the frowning scholar holding tea in front of him and said, "How about this game being considered a draw?".
"That's great!" Lu Heng smiled slightly, but felt relieved in his heart.
If the opponent has another chess piece, you will lose.
However, it was obvious that the other party did not. Moreover, looking at the helpless look on the other party's face, it was obvious that Guizhou Donkey was at his wits end.
At this point, a draw is the best result.
It doesn't hurt feelings, and it won't ruin the other person's face and make the old man angry and get out of control in the end.
"The old man is extremely naughty, Lv Mou admires him!" After putting away the chess pieces one by one, Lu Heng pushed the go equipment aside and said to the old man with a smile.
"I have been playing Go for many years and have never met an opponent. Now that I can beat you to a tie, your skills are really proficient!" The old man was very happy, stroking his beard with a look of loneliness and defeat.
"When you meet a good talent, you meet an opponent in chess!" Lu Hengshen nodded with approval, his expression was very excited, as if he met his close friend in the mountains and rivers.
