Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 109 Asking the Fifth Prince

Lu Nanzhi pushed the door open and walked in, looking at the cold room, frowning together.

Walking over to touch the bed, the cold touch made her guess that after Shen Lanze left her, he didn't go back to the room to sleep, but went somewhere.

She waited until noon with anxiety, but she still didn't see him, so she could only go out to look for him. Shen Lanze couldn't find him, but saw Xu Beiting, who was staggering drunk, being beaten in front of the tavern.

She hurried over to stop him, and asked the reason for the incident. It turned out that Xu Beiting had drunk but refused to pay.

She hurriedly took out a few taels of silver from her pocket and handed it over, "I paid for the wine for him."

The tavern owner laughed when he saw Yinzi, looked at the people on the ground and cursed: "You have to thank her girl, otherwise I will break your leg today."

Lu Nanzhi lifted him up from the ground, Xu Beiting stretched out his hand to push her away, shook his head and said, "I don't care about you, stay away from me."

Seeing that he was about to fall again, Lu Nanzhi hurried over to help him, and said angrily, "Since I met you, there is no reason to let him go."

Lu Nanzhi helped him back home, saw the empty room and asked in puzzlement, "Where is Auntie, and where did your sister Xiaoxue go?"

Lu Nanzhi's heart skipped a beat, thinking of Xu Beiting's current state, could it be that something happened to the two of them?

Xu Beiting didn't say anything, just stared at her blankly with those dull eyes.

At this moment, Lu Nanzhi was very restless, but he didn't know how to express it, so he could only turn around and say, "I'll make you some hangover soup."

As soon as he turned around, he heard a "boom" sound from behind, turned around and found Xu Beiting fell to the ground and passed out.

Lu Nanzhi hurriedly helped him onto the bed, and hurried out to find a doctor.

After making a diagnosis, the doctor withdrew his hand, turned to Lu Nanzhi and said, "Your husband has been in a coma due to drinking too much, and his body can't bear it if he goes on like this. You have nothing to do to persuade him, just cook some porridge for him."

Lu Nanzhi wanted to explain, but the doctor hurried away with the medicine box.

Seeing the unconscious person on the bed, he finally couldn't bear it, left him and left.

Lu Nanzhi came to the kitchen, and after a while of busy work, he came out with the cooked porridge.

Xu Beiting had already woken up, sitting on the bed, looking out the window with blank eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

"Feel better?"

"Well, thank you."

"By the way, where are your sister and mother? Why are you alone?" Lu Nanzhi asked casually as he passed the porridge bowl to the person on the bed.

Feeling the warmth in his hands, Xu Beiting finally eased his irritability, stirred the porridge in the bowl with a spoon, and said slowly: "My father came to the door. I was afraid that my mother would soften again, so I asked my younger sister to bring my mother Live in a house in the suburbs."

Xu Beiting casually found an excuse to cover it up, a trace of guilt flashed in his lowered eyes.

"That's right, but my aunt lives in the suburbs, so I can calm down and take care of myself." Lu Nanzhi was relieved when he learned that his mother and sister hadn't had any accidents.

Just as she was about to leave, Xu Beiting behind her suddenly asked, "Can I continue to work in the Red Dressing Pavilion?"

"Of course, as long as you want, you can do it anytime." After Lu Nanzhi finished speaking, he lifted his foot and left.

Xu Beiting looked at the leaving figure, with too many complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.

On the way back to the mansion, Lu Nanzhi found that there were many guards on the street searching, which made her a little puzzled and came to the stall and asked: "Ma'am, who are these officers and soldiers searching for? Is there another criminal hiding in the house?" Capital?"

"My little girl doesn't know something. I heard that the fifth prince was assassinated last night. I'm not looking for the assassin." Seeing her puzzled face, the aunt hurriedly replied.

Lu Nanzhi was about to smack his hands with chopsticks, and muttered softly, "The fifth prince was assassinated?"

The first thing she thought of was Shen Lanze, whether something happened to Shen Lanze last night.

Throwing down the chopsticks in his hand, he left in a hurry.

The imperial doctor was bandaging the fifth prince's wound, when the guard suddenly cupped his hands outside the door and said, "Your Highness, Miss Lu, please see me."

"You go back first."

"Yes, my minister is retiring,"

The imperial doctor put the things in the medicine box and left in a hurry. Before leaving, he happened to meet Lu Nanzhi, so he couldn't help but look at the woman twice.

Jun Moyu turned over and got out of bed, picked up the robes lying beside her and put them on one by one.

When Lu Nanzhi came in, Jun Moyu had just put on his belt, looked at the person with a smile, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, "Miss Lu, sit down."

Lu Nanzhi sat on a chair and looked him up and down.

Seeing her eyes, Jun Moyu couldn't help but shook her head with a smile and said, "Miss Lu, don't look at me with such eyes. My Highness is afraid that Lan Ze will be jealous."

Lu Nanzhi coughed lightly, and said with a serious face: "I heard that His Highness was stabbed by an assassin, but is it true?"

"It's okay, it's just minor injuries. It's not the first time this kind of thing happened, so it's nothing unusual." Jun Moyu's words are true. Although the assassination this time is fake, he has indeed been assassinated more than once in the past .

"Your Highness, I'll cut to the chase and ask, did you see Shen Lanze, did something happen to him, he wasn't in the room all night last night." Lu Nanzhi didn't want to go around asking any more.

She is eager to know, where is Shen Lanze now?Is everything safe and sound?What is going on between them?

The guard came in with tea and put it on the table, "Miss Lu drinks tea."

"Where am I in the mood to drink tea now, Shen Lanze suddenly disappeared, life and death are unknown, I just ask His Highness to tell me the truth!" Lu Nanzhi believed that the fifth prince must know where Shen Lanze was.

Jun Moyu looked at the expectant person, her throat moved, she opened her mouth to say what she wanted to say, but then swallowed it back.

"Lan Ze went to Qingzhou City, and there are some things that he needs to deal with." Jun Moyu finally held back, and decided not to tell Lu Nanzhi before he was sure whether Lan Ze was alive or dead.

If Shen Lanze knew, he would definitely agree with him to do so, after all, what he cares most about is the woman in front of him.

If Lu Nanzhi went to find Concubine Song and the Second Prince on impulse, it would only put her in danger.

Lu Nanzhi stood up, came to the Fifth Prince's side, met his dark eyes and asked again: "Is there something that His Highness insists on asking him to go? And why didn't Lan Ze tell me about it?"

Lu Nanzhi had already noticed something in his heart. He felt that the fifth prince was lying.

"This is His Highness asking him to keep it a secret. This matter involves too much, and the fewer people who know about it, the better." Jun Moyu said with firm eyes.

The two teamed for a long time, Lu Nanzhi lowered his eyes, turned and left.

The guard walked in and said worriedly: "Your Highness, will Miss Lu believe it?"

"Send someone to protect her secretly." Jun Moyu was not afraid that she would not believe her, only that Concubine Song and the Second Prince would attack her.

This is what he promised Lan Ze, and he will keep Lu Nanzhi safe no matter what.
