I have traveled through time, who am I afraid of?

Chapter 363 Peng Lu Returns to Meet Leng Xian

With the result he had expected long ago and in high spirits as he was about to leave the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion, Peng Lu returned with brisk steps.

As soon as I entered the marquis's mansion, I ran into Zhongshun.

Zhongshun was sent by Leng Xian to meet Peng Lu.

Seeing the door open and Peng Lu coming in, Zhongshun hurriedly walked over to him and said, "Mr. Peng, you're back. How are you?"

"What's going on?" Peng Lu asked knowingly.

"It's just... it's about going to Prince Yu's mansion to borrow money! How is it?"

"Haha!" Peng Lu looked at Zhongshun with a smile and asked, "What do you think will happen?"

When Zhongshun heard Peng Lu's question, the glimmer of hope in his eyes suddenly dimmed, and his face fell along with it. "I think... I think... there's no hope!"

After hearing this, Peng Lu raised his hand and patted Zhongshun's drooping shoulders, "Your feeling is correct!

Is the Lord still awake?"

Zhongshun said "hmm" dejectedly.

"Then let's go and report to the Marquis!" Peng Lu said, and took the lead to walk towards Zhongshun's cabin.

Zhongshun looked up at the sky, let out a long breath, turned around and followed Peng Lu.

"Oh! Then what should the dozens of people in this marquis' mansion do next?" Zhongshun frowned and spoke weakly.

After hearing this, Peng Lu turned back and looked at Zhongshun, "Even if the sky falls, there are still tall people to hold it up!

You don't have to support the dozens of people in the Marquis Qinxing's mansion, so why are you worrying so much?"

"I don't want to worry about it either!" Zhongshun said with a hint of grievance, "But I... I am also one of these dozens of people!

We servants have to eat too, right? "

Peng Lu looked at Zhongshun, thinking of saying a few words of comfort, and opened his mouth... but then he thought better of it and decided to just forget it.

Words of comfort are worthless at this moment.

So he turned around and continued walking forward.

The moon is now at its zenith.

Peng Lu walked all the way back from Prince Yu's Palace.

He is not in a hurry anymore.

There is no curfew in Beijing.

He was walking back in the night.

But it’s different when it’s cold.

He was waiting for news in his mansion, and he was getting extremely anxious!

When he didn't see Peng Lu coming back for a while, his heart was in his throat.

For a moment, he imagined that Peng Lu could take back a large amount of silver from Prince Yu's Mansion, which would immediately solve the urgent needs of Marquis Qinxing's Mansion!

After you get the money, what do you do first and what do you do later?

At the same time, he was guessing guiltily... Would Prince Yu's Mansion give him this face?

For a moment, he thought that he was Leng Rongyue's biological father after all;

At one point, he thought, I hope Prince Yu doesn't know that I have treated Leng Rongyue badly before;

Just know some things... uh... don't take it too hard on yourself!

Leng Xian was waiting anxiously in Zhongshun's little house.

Sometimes he would go to the door to look, and sometimes he would go back to bed and lie down;

Just after lying down, he suddenly sat up;

I couldn't sit still, so I walked back and forth in this palm-sized hut;

It wasn't until Leng Xian made himself dizzy that he went back to bed...

What does it mean to be restless and unable to sit or lie still... Leng Xian deeply understands this!

While Leng Xian was waiting anxiously, he finally heard footsteps outside.

Leng Xianteng jumped off the bed and finally managed to control his legs as he rushed towards the door!

After thinking about it, he realized that as a marquis, he could not lose his composure in front of the servants in the mansion.

Keep steady... Keep steady...

So Leng Xian took a few deep breaths, then returned to the bed and lay down half-leaning.

But his hands tightly grasping the quilt revealed how anxious and uneasy he was at the moment!

"My Lord, Mr. Peng is back!"

A loyal voice came from outside.

"Come in!" Leng Xian tried his best to control his tone. He was afraid that the change in his voice would be noticed by Zhongshun and Peng Lu.

However, Zhongshun and Penglu both detected the urgency and worry in his voice.

The two looked at each other.

Peng Lu walked into the house and bowed to Leng Xian, "Greetings, Lord Marquis!"

"Forget it! Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Peng!" Leng Xian raised his hand and gestured, pretending to be calm.

"I dare not! It's my duty!" Peng Lu replied.

Leng Xian looked at Peng Lu's calm face and his heart sank.

He guessed... Peng Lu's trip... must have been fruitless!

If Peng Lu had successfully obtained a large sum of money, how could he be so calm?

He will definitely be very happy and show off his achievements as soon as he enters the door!

Now, this is the case...

Leng Xian did not ask, but just stared at Peng Lu with a gloomy look, waiting for Peng Lu to speak.

Although he failed to borrow money from Prince Yu's Mansion, it didn't matter to Peng Lu who had already made up his mind to leave.

However, facing the cold gaze at this moment, he couldn't show an indifferent expression too obviously.

So, Peng Lu lowered his head, sighed, and said, "My Lord, I have failed to live up to your expectations on this trip!

"Then Prince Yu's Mansion...Alas!" He said, shaking his head.

Leng Xian's heart really sank to the bottom this time.

He leaned limply against the pillow behind him.

"Your Highness Prince Yu is unwilling to lend me money?" Leng Xian asked.

“My Lord, I have not seen His Royal Highness Prince Yu. His Royal Highness Prince Yu…he is not in the mansion.

Xiao Ke only saw the palace's housekeeper Lu and two guards of His Royal Highness Prince Yu. "
