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

Chapter 164 I Will

Xiao Mengying turned her head when she heard the words, her beautiful phoenix eyes sparkled, and the smile on the corner of her mouth deepened, "Tell me, did he already fall in love with this princess at that time?"

The maid shook her head, a trace of helplessness flashed in her eyes, "Master, don't forget, Mr. Chen is the closed disciple of your master, if he really has a soft spot for you, why would he not contact you for many years, or even let you know?" find him."

After Xiao Mengying finished listening, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and a layer of gloom shrouded her brows.

"My princess naturally knows what you said. He is just angry with my princess, so this princess must resolve the matter here as soon as possible, so that I can return to him as soon as possible." Her voice was resolute, as if she had made up her mind. kind of determination.

The maid saw the crazy person in her eyes, and knew that it was useless to say anything else. The master is usually calm, but as long as he mentions Mr. Chen, it becomes different.

Lu Nanzhi and Shen Lanze returned to the Lu residence in a carriage. Seeing their daughter who had returned safely, the parents of the Lu family breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "What did the emperor say when you entered the palace?"

"Ask something about Lanze."

Lu Jinghuai and Mrs. Lu looked at each other and realized that something was definitely wrong.

Lu Jinghuai received his wife's gaze, patted Shen Lanze on the shoulder and said, "Uncle really didn't misunderstand you. Now that you are the top student in high school, let's go have a few drinks."

"it is good."

Madam Lu saw the two leaving, she pulled her daughter to sit down, and said nervously: "Did the emperor ever blame you?"

"Why do you blame me?" Lu Nanzhi looked at the nervous mother suspiciously, not understanding what her father was doing.

Their intention to push Shen Lanze away is too obvious, anyone with eyes can see it.

"Shen Lanze is the son of a traitor."

"Mother, I believe the Shen family was wronged. There must be something else in this matter."

Lu Nanzhi suspected that the emperor must know something, but what he couldn't figure out was why the emperor ordered the execution of Taifu Shen knowing that the Shen family had been wronged.

Mrs. Lu hurriedly covered her mouth, looked around and said in a low voice, "Such nonsense is not allowed, the case will be judged by the emperor himself, if you say that, it means that the emperor is confused."

If this word reaches the emperor's ears, their entire Lu family will suffer.

Lu Nanzhi took down his hand covering her mouth, "Mother, just leave this matter alone."

"I heard that Princess Beiling has a crush on Shen Lanze, and even the emperor wants to marry him. Could it be that you plan to be a concubine?"

Mrs. Lu does not allow her daughter to be humble, and even if she marries an ordinary person to be a regular wife, she will never marry someone else as a concubine.

Lu Nanzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, folded his arms around his chest, and stared at his mother.

Under the strong eyes of her daughter, Mrs. Lu turned her head away with some guilt and coughed softly, "Mother is doing it for your own good. They say that she would rather be a poor man's wife than a rich man's concubine. You should understand this truth."

"Not only will I not be someone else's concubine, but I will not allow the man I marry to marry other concubines." Lu Nanzhi doesn't like to share with others,

"Really?" Madam Lu asked in disbelief.

"Really." Lu Nanzhi swore.

Mrs. Lu let out a long sigh of relief, and patted her chest, "You're really going to scare my mother to death."

She was really afraid that her daughter would get carried away and marry someone else in a daze.

"Mother, can you tell me now, who told you that the emperor will give Shen Lanze a marriage, and how did you know about Princess Beiling?" Lu Nanzhi looked at her scrutinizingly.

In desperation, Mrs. Lu had no choice but to confess to Xu Beiting. It turned out that Xu Beiting was overheard by Grandma Lu when she told it.

Lu Nanzhi was silent for a while, then slowly asked: "How did grandma answer?"

"Of course your grandma disagrees. If you hadn't been called into the palace today, I would definitely have talked to you about this matter."

There was a sneering smile in Lu Nanzhi's eyes, and it was exactly as he expected. It seemed that Xu Beiting was the one who hid the most.

The mother and daughter talked for a while before Lu Nanzhi got up and went back to the room.

Just when she was about to lie down and rest, there was a knock on the door suddenly.

She put on her coat and opened the door. Seeing Shen Lanze standing outside the door, she wondered, "Haven't you rested so late?"

Shen Lanze didn't speak, but stared at her with deep eyes.

After a while, he said, "I just finished drinking with my uncle."

A smell of alcohol wafted in the wind, Lu Nanzhi frowned slightly, "Are you drinking too much?"

"No, I didn't drink much."

Shen Lanze hugged her, buried his face in her hair, and took a deep breath of her fragrance.

A look of sadness flashed in his eyes, "Nan Zhi, I'm sorry for involving you in this conspiracy."

Lu Nanzhi felt that his body was a little stiff, and asked tentatively: "What's the matter with you? You can say such things properly."

Shen Lanze didn't answer her, but his arms holding her tightened even more.

A strange feeling rose in Lu Nanzhi's heart, he was very strange today.

But she didn't refuse and let him hold her.

After a long time, Shen Lanze let go of the person in his arms, and looked at her with complicated eyes.

Lu Nanzhi was stunned for a moment, not understanding why he said so suddenly, "You"

"Will you marry me?"

"Ah?" Lu Nanzhi didn't react for a while, and his head short-circuited for this sudden marriage proposal.

"It's okay, this is a lifelong event after all, you should think about it carefully." Shen Lanze turned and left disappointed.

Lu Nanzhi ran out and put his arms around his waist, "If you're so impatient, you don't want to hear my answer."

"You..." Shen Lanze didn't dare to ask, he was afraid that the final answer would disappoint him.

"I agree." Lu Nanzhi said softly.

Shen Lanze still turned his back to her, his body was a little stiff.

Seeing the unresponsive person, Lu Nanzhi let go of his hand and walked in front of him.

"You won't regret it?"

"You're saying it again." Shen Lanze held her shoulder with a little excitement.

Lu Nanzhi held back a smile on the corner of his mouth and said with a straight face: "I say, yes."

"Great, I will propose marriage to my uncle in a few days."

Shen Lanze thought that she would soon become his wife, so he lowered his head and kissed her lightly on the forehead.

"Go back and rest earlier." Lu Nanzhi shyly pushed him away, turned and went back to the room.

Just as he was about to close the door, Shen Lanze stretched out his hand against the door, "Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

Lu Nanzhi stopped, "What's the matter?"

Shen Lanze's expression suddenly became serious, and he looked at her and said, "Nan Zhi, I hope to marry you after the Shen family clears away their grievances."

Lu Nanzhi felt a little sweetness in his heart, and a slight smile rose from the corner of his mouth, "Okay."

Shen Lanze was overjoyed, and hugged her slender waist, "Then I'll go back first."

Lu Nanzhi stood on tiptoe, planted a light kiss on her lips, and quickly closed the door.

Shen Lanze looked at the closed door and touched the place where he was kissed just now. His heart was as sweet as honey, and he felt light.

He must get rid of the crimes of the Shen family as soon as possible, take Nanzhi to worship in front of the tombstone of his parents, and marry her.
