Destiny Blessed Girl

Of course, Gu Zhinian would not admit that she had secretly investigated the people currently in charge of the Ouyang family in Surabaya. Although the information she found was very little, it was enough for her to use now.

"I heard it from someone in the teahouse a few years ago. Could it be that the person was just talking nonsense?" Gu Zhinian asked with a look of surprise.

Zeng stared at her face for a few moments, then smiled and shook his head, "It's not all nonsense, my ancestors are from Yuzhou."

Gu Zhinian heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to speak again, but saw a maid running in, bowing her knees to the two of them and saying, "Miss, His Royal Highness is here, coming this way."

Gu Zhinian's eyes lit up, he turned around and was about to meet the prince at the door.

Zeng naturally knew of Gu Zhinian's marriage contract with the prince, but seeing her so unreserved, she also frowned.

After a while, the prince's figure appeared at the gate of the small courtyard.

"My concubine sees Your Highness!" Gu Zhinian bowed his knees to the prince with joy, with a dignified posture and a shy expression.

Ye Canglan really wanted to walk over without looking sideways, just pretending that he didn't see or hear, but there were still standing in the courtyard the eldest wife of Ouyang's family, Mrs. Zeng, and Ouyang Changping behind Mrs. Zeng.

He stopped, turned his head to look at Gu Zhinian, and said lightly, "Don't be too polite!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Gu Zhinian straightened up and looked up at the man he was thinking about, but only saw the back of his head.

Ye Canglan saw the indifference towards Gu Zhinian in Zeng's eyes, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his lips, then he took two steps forward and saluted Ye Canglan, "See Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

Ye Canglan hurriedly stepped forward to give her a little help, "Hurry up and forgive me!"

Zeng said with a smile: "I didn't know His Highness was coming, and I didn't even prepare a pot of good tea. It's really rude."

Ye Canglan also laughed, "My nephew doesn't pick anything, just any kind of tea."

Zeng raised her eyebrows, she has something important to say!

And right now, what can be called the most important thing for the royal family is nothing but the war on the border.

Zeng stepped aside and asked the prince to come in and talk.

Naturally, Gu Zhinian would not miss such a good opportunity, so he hastily followed in.

Originally, the Zeng family asked his son Ouyang Changping to do the cooking and pouring of tea, but Gu Zhinian came up with him and insisted on making tea for His Highness himself. The utensils were given to Gu Chinian.

While making tea, Gu Zhinian listened to His Highness the Crown Prince talking with Mrs. Zeng.

"Speaking of which, my nephew should call you aunt." Ye Canglan said.

Zeng waved his hand, "I can't afford it. You are the crown prince, how can you talk about marriage with common people like us."

"In my nephew's heart, the Surabaya Ouyang family is my nephew's close relative."

Regardless of how true or false this statement is, it is still quite comfortable to listen to.

The two chatted politely for a while, and then Ye Canglan started to get down to business.

"Auntie should have heard about the scuffle at the border. Now the situation is very unfavorable for the Jin Dynasty. In addition, the General Huaigu of the Nanli Kingdom came to Beijing to kill many good generals of our Jin Dynasty under the guise of negotiating peace. Now the imperial court has one There are no generals who can lead troops to fight.”

Mrs. Zeng naturally knew about this, and at that time she was still scolding the emperor who would never die.

Seeing that Mrs. Zeng was silent, Ye Canglan continued, "My nephew has a heartless request, and I ask my aunt to promise my nephew."

Of course, Mrs. Zeng would not agree to anything casually, and just silently looked at the Prince of Jin who put his posture extremely low in front of him.

"My nephew has heard since childhood that the Ouyang family has produced a large number of talents, and their martial arts and strategies are not inferior to the generals of the court. Now the national crisis is coming—"

Zeng probably knew what he was going to say next, so she hurriedly raised her hand to interrupt him, "Your Highness—I can't decide on this matter."

Ye Canglan hurriedly said: "Nephew naturally knows, I just hope that my aunt can send a letter to Patriarch Ouyang for my nephew, explaining this."
