Playing bad and eating melons: The whole court is laughing? No, no

Chapter 343 Why?

Loge dragged his bloody body into a hidden cave. He had to wait for someone to find him.

After an unknown amount of time, Log, who was in a semi-comatose state, vaguely heard a call.

They are his men, and Luo Cheng.

Gradually, the sound got closer, Log's eyelids became heavier, and he was dying.

Just when he was about to fall into a coma, he saw his men and Luo Cheng running towards him.

why?

We are not...

Loge closed his eyes, his head dropped, and he fell into a complete coma.

On the other hand, after Jiang Yueyang and the others happily finished their reunion dinner, Lu Yunting was called away alone by Minister Jiang.

At the stone table outside the study, Minister Jiang poured a full bowl of wine for Lu Yunting as soon as he sat down.

"drink!"

Lu Yunting lowered his eyes and glanced at the wine in the bowl, then reached out and drank it in one gulp.

Minister Jiang continued to pour and Lu Yunting continued to drink.

It wasn't until Lu Yunting finished five bowls of wine that Minister Jiang said, "I didn't realize you could hold your liquor quite well."

Lu Yunting put down the wine bowl and said, "It's bitterly cold in the frontier, and drinking can warm the body. If you drink more, your alcohol tolerance will improve."

Hearing this, a trace of heartache flashed in Minister Jiang's eyes.

Yes... This child went to the frontier, a cold and harsh place, at such a young age, and stayed in the military camp all day long. It would be hard for him not to drink.

Lu Yunting poured a bowl of wine for Minister Jiang, "Uncle Jiang, Ziyue came here today to seek your consent for something."

Minister Jiang knew what was going on as soon as he heard it. He picked up the wine bowl and took a sip of wine, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"Is this... the wine from Zuixianju?"

Lu Yunting nodded. "Zuixianju is owned by a friend of mine. Uncle Jiang can go to him anytime he wants to drink."

"Don't try to bribe me with this wine." Minister Jiang drank the wine in the bowl. "I won't take it."

Lu Yunting filled Minister Jiang's glass with wine, then held the wine bowl with both hands and said respectfully, "Please grant me your blessing, Uncle Jiang."

Minister Jiang didn't reach out to take it, but said seriously, "Yangyang is my precious daughter. I just want her to live a carefree, peaceful and happy life. Do you think you can do this?"

"I can!" Lu Yunting answered firmly.

"What do you have to say yes?" Minister Jiang said in a deep voice, "Yangyang is a powerful person, and you have a large army.

The combination of the two, not to mention your majesty's suspicion, even I can't help but suspect that my daughter might be with you..."

After hearing these words, Lu Yunting slowly put down the wine bowl, then took out a cloud-patterned jade pendant from his waist and placed it on the table.

Minister Jiang felt that the jade pendant was the military token of the Lu family army. He sighed heavily and said, "Aren't you afraid that if you hand over the military power of the Lu family army, you will die?"

"I believe that Your Majesty is a wise ruler." Lu Yunting paused. "If that day ever comes, which side will Uncle Jiang stand on?"

He doesn't want to rebel, but if he is forced to do so...

Minister Jiang gazed at him intently. Was Lu Yunting trying to say that even if he handed over the Lu Family Army's military power, he would still be able to fight?

How powerful has he become in these years?

Lu Yunting raised the wine bowl to Minister Jiang again, "I will protect her. She is not a coward."

After a moment, Minister Jiang took the wine and said, "Never mind. That girl has already chosen you."

"Thank you, Uncle Jiang, for your help." Lu Yunting's voice was filled with obvious joy.

"Don't be too happy, kid." Minister Jiang put down his wine bowl. "I only agreed to let you get engaged first. As for the marriage, I need to wait and see."

"Yes, I will definitely behave well."

"I suddenly remembered something." Minister Jiang stared at Lu Yunting intently. "On Yangyang's hundredth day, you secretly kissed her when we weren't paying attention. Tell me, have you been eyeing my daughter for a long time?"

"Jiang...Uncle Jiang, is there such a thing?" Lu Yunting was stared at so hard that sweat broke out on his forehead. "I don't remember it. But I think I thought Yangyang was cute at the time."

He was only three years old at the time and didn't understand anything. If there really was such a thing as a stolen kiss, it was only because Yangyang was too cute.

Minister Jiang just wanted to scare him on purpose, not because he really thought he had any thoughts at that time.

How old was he then? His hair hadn't even grown out yet!

"By the way, can I really drink as much wine as I want from Zuixianju?" asked Minister Jiang.

"No."

Minister Jiang immediately jumped up and down, "You kid actually..."

"Yangyang said!" Lu Yunting suddenly interrupted him, "A little drinking can improve your mood, but too much can harm your body. As long as Uncle Jiang controls the amount, you can drink the wine at Zuixianju anytime."

After hearing this, Minister Jiang let him go.

"I remember you brought seven jars of wine today. How about four more? Take them out and drink them all."

"Uncle Jiang, three jars of wine is already excessive."

"What do you mean by super? You just drank almost a whole jar of wine."

"That's also Jiang..."

"Stop talking nonsense and get some wine. And pour some! Let's see who of us gets down first tonight."

"..."

***

The next day, at the inn, in Logeluocheng's yard.

Log, who was lying on the bed seriously injured, moved his eyelids and then slowly opened his eyes.

The person guarding the bed immediately said, "Master, are you awake?"

"Help me... up."

Loge's men immediately helped him up and said, "Master, you are seriously injured. You can't use force for a while."

"How is Luo Cheng?"

"Prince Luo Cheng was also seriously injured and is now resting in the next room. Would you like me to go and fetch him?"

Loge shook his head, "No, pour me a glass of water."

Soon, his men brought him a glass of water. After drinking the water, he closed his eyes and meditated.

According to that person, I had only been in Beijing for two days when the assassination mission was passed from Nanzhao to the capital.

In other words, the news of my presence in Daxia was relayed by someone in the team. Moreover, this was after I had dealt with the people Luo Lie had assigned to the team.

Was it my people who betrayed me, or was it Luo Cheng who betrayed me?

What I am most reluctant to believe is often the truth. This sentence is undoubtedly directed at Lu Cheng.

So what did it mean to ask me to pay attention to my body? My body... Log suddenly thought of something. Could it be...

No...what that person said may not be true.

The assassination last night might have been a trap set to alienate me and Luo Cheng.

But... my intuition tells me that what that person said is true.

The only solution now is to find out everything or meet that person again to ask him clearly.

Luo Ge opened his eyes and said, "Duan Yi, go check out the killer organization called 'Blood Demon Pavilion'. Don't let Luo Cheng know about this."

Duan Yi was very surprised to hear this, but he still responded.

After a moment's silence, Luo Ge said with difficulty, "Let Wangu secretly monitor Luo Cheng's every move."

"Yes."
