Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart - Chapter 223
Chapter 223: I Would Like To Visit Him
When Long Yang heard Zhao Qian’s suggestion, a glint appeared in his eyes which had been gazing at the garden. “How do you know that she likes to eat peaches?”
Hearing this, Zhao Qian forced out some enthusiasm as he explained, “I overheard Prince Lu saying that he wants to bring Second Miss Lu to pick peaches at the holiday home when he’s on leave.”
Long Yang tightened his grip on the windowsill slightly. “Go make arrangements.”
At these words, all of Zhao Qian’s dejection disappeared at once, and he agreed joyfully, “Leave it to me.”
As long as Master was no longer angry, he could settle everything nice and proper.
The next day.
The match was still ongoing.
As Steward Wang had expected, the match today was more exciting and intense than yesterday.
The news of the Grand Duke Mansion holding a match to choose a bridegroom spread farther and farther, and more and more hopeful participants rushed to the imperial capital.
Many highly-skilled warriors from the martial world had made their way over today.
Although these people were still no match for Chu Yi, he nevertheless could not take it as easy as he did yesterday.
Lu Liangwei could already predict the results and did not even bother to leave the Grand Duke Mansion.
She was fiddling with her medicinal herbs in her yard.
Zhu Yu came in from outside and said happily, “Miss, the Prince sent a messenger telling you to get ready to go pick peaches at the holiday home. He’s not coming back to fetch you. Once he leaves the palace, he’ll go to the holiday home directly and wait for you there.”
When Lu Liangwei heard this, a look of delight spread across her face. She put down the things in her hands, changed her clothes, and went out with Zhu Yu.
Big Bro did mention last time that he would bring her to pick peaches at the holiday home when he was free.
She had long been craving for the peaches there and was eager to pick them herself.
Lu Liangwei did not take a carriage. Instead, she had a servant choose two horses and rode them to the suburbs with Zhu Yu.
She had not ridden a horse since the time she came back from Sacred Hillock Peak. Seeing that there was nobody else on the road, she sped up.
Zhu Yu was scared out of her wits when she saw her young mistress ride at such a great speed. “Please ride slower, Miss…”
Lu Liangwei ignored her. They were getting close to the holiday home, so she was not worried that Zhu Yu would fall behind.
When she reached a fork in the road, she spotted someone standing there and quickly reined in her horse.
“What are you doing here, Butler Zhao?” She gaped at the beaming man blocking her way in confusion.
Zhao Qian replied with a smile, “I’ve been waiting here for a long time, Second Miss Lu.”
Lu Liangwei frowned. “Why are you waiting for me?”
Zhao Qian’s eyes flashed. “Prince Lu couldn’t leave because something suddenly came up. Since Master was also leaving the palace, Prince Lu asked Master to pass the message.”
At the mention of Long Yang, Lu Liangwei looked around frantically. When she did not see that person anywhere, she was secretly relieved.
However, there was no way she did not know what was going on.
It seemed that this sudden turn of events was not Lu Tingchen’s doing but Long Yang’s.
That silly girl Zhu Yu did not even know where the messenger came from and simply believed that Big Bro had sent him.
However, she was also partly to blame for this. She had been too careless.
She sighed privately. Seeing the man standing there without moving an inch, Lu Liangwei was a little displeased but nevertheless said, “Since the Emperor is nearby, I would like to visit him. Please lead the way, Butler Zhao.”
Zhao Qian was satisfied to hear her response.
Second Miss Lu’s quick wit had spared him from wasting his breath, and his tone became even more respectful. “Please come with me, Second Miss Lu.”
Lu Liangwei followed him slowly on her horse.
After entering the imperial holiday home, Zhao Qian took her directly to the study room.
