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

The sunlight falls into the courtyard through the treetops, shining on the flowers and trees.

The person who followed Shen Lanze asked, "What did you find?"

"I'm not sure, but there's something wrong with that little boy."

Of course, this is only her suspicion. The moment the boy opened his eyes just now, she did see the strong murderous intent in the boy's eyes, but she is not sure if she misread it, but how could an eight or nine-year-old child have such a deep hostility? .

"What's wrong with him?" Shen Lanze asked with a frown.

"I feel a strong killing intent emanating from him." Ye Jinran was also shocked by this aura at the time.

Shen Lanze frowned. Although he didn't quite believe Ye Jinran's words, he did feel a murderous aura just now. At first he thought it was an illusion, but now that he thinks about it, it's not impossible.

A child who has been beaten and abused for a long time must have deep seeds of hatred planted in his heart. It is normal to see such reactions from strangers.

"Maybe he thought we would react like this if we abused him again." Shen Lanze argued.

Ye Jinran saw that the little boy had an indescribable feeling, so he could only remind him: "I think he is very dependent on Nan Zhi, so it's better to be careful."

"Okay, I understand." Shen Lanze nodded and glanced back at the room.

Lu Nanzhi tiptoed out of the room after the little boy took the medicine and fell asleep.

She sighed and said, "This boy is a villager from Qingshi Village, his name is Yan Wen. He is nine years old this year. He has never met his father and has been raised by his mother."

After listening to Lu Nanzhi's words, Shen Lanze became more cautious.

Such a big child has been abused and grown up, and his personality will inevitably become distorted. Besides, this matter is related to Lu Nanzhi's safety, so he must pay more attention to it.

"You go to eat first! I will guard the door, and if something happens, I can deal with it in time."

Lu Nanzhi nodded, knowing that this was not the time to be polite, he turned and left.

After she left, Shen Lanze pushed the door open, saw that the child on the bed was already asleep, turned around and sat down at the table.

After he left, the sleeping boy opened his clear eyes with a sneer.

Yan Wen's eyes were full of resentment and gloom, he wanted those people to pay the price they deserved!
…………

Lu Nanzhi's grievances were quickly washed away, and the shopkeeper of Chunfenglou was also released.

The murderer turned out to be a beggar. According to his confession, because the waiter in the shop insulted Zeng him and beat him, he held a grudge and sneaked into the back kitchen to add medicine to the pastry.

And that boy was his accomplice, because he was dissatisfied that the shop boy was doing better than him, so he wanted to get rid of him wholeheartedly.

This time the case ended quickly, but there was another secret hidden where no one noticed.

Shen Lanze understood that the case was not simple, and that the two were just scapegoats. Even so, he was relieved, so that Lu Nanzhi was safe.

But what gave him a headache was this boy, since Lu Nanzhi left, he hadn't eaten or drank.

"You let me out, you bad guys, I'm going to find my mother!"

"Let me out! You bad guys!"

Shen Lanze opened the door violently, picked up the child and put it on the bed, and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "Your mother has something to do now, so you can stay here to recuperate."

"You...Are you going to hit me!" Yan Wenxu looked at him in horror, his body trembling in fear.

Shen Lanze let go of his hand, and stroked his forehead helplessly, "No, I won't hit you, you are obedient, eat obediently, and sleep obediently."

"Could it be that if I obediently obey, I can see my mother." Yan Wenxu's eyes flickered, looking very scared.

Shen Lanze looked into his expectant eyes, nodded helplessly and said: "Of course, I can see your mother after you recover from illness."

Yan Wenxu immediately jumped out of bed and ran back to the table to pick up a spoon to eat, "Really?"

"Well, really, so you should take care of your body quickly." Shen Lanze said softly.

Yan Wenxu nodded, and lowered his head to pick up the rice in the bowl, "Well, I see, you can go."

Seeing his well-behaved appearance, Shen Lanze sighed slightly in his heart.

I thought I could learn something about Qingshi Village from him, but now it seems that I may not be able to, so I can only find other ways.

Two days later would be the day of the second prince's big wedding. The second prince used the disaster as an excuse and didn't make any big arrangements, but simply arranged some banquets in the mansion to entertain the guests.

Xiao Mengying was sitting in the inn in her wedding dress, quietly waiting for the wedding procession, she never thought that what she was waiting for was just a sedan chair, and she didn't see the second prince at all.

"Miss, the Second Highness is ill today, and it is not convenient to go out, so please get on the sedan chair by yourself." Xi Po respectfully said to Xiao Mengying.

Xiao Mengying's face turned pale when she heard the words, she gritted her teeth and asked, "Then why is Your Highness suddenly unwell?"

"This... Second Highness's heart hurts, I hope Miss will forgive me." Xi Po said bravely.

"How could this princess believe such nonsense. This princess is the emperor's concubine, and she is not an ordinary lady. She didn't even come to the wedding ceremony. If this is spread, the people of the world will think of her Highness and this princess!" Xiao Mengying was so angry that she couldn't help shouting at a high volume.

"This... This is not something that a servant can decide." Xi Po was taken aback by her, and explained tremblingly.

Xiao Mengying took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down, "Since His Royal Highness can't come to marry, then the princess will go on her own. After all, it is necessary to give His Highness a face."

She said that just to save the last bit of dignity, but she hated the second prince in her heart.

How could Xi Po dare to refuse, she quickly agreed: "The old woman helps the princess into the sedan chair."

Xiao Mengying sat on the bridal sedan chair, her heart filled with resentment, she clenched her fists tightly, her nails dug into her flesh fiercely, blood flowed out from between her fingers, she didn't notice it.

She remembered today's humiliation, and sooner or later she will make him repay it a hundredfold!
The welcoming team left the post house and headed towards the palace. Xiao Mengying lifted her hijab and looked out the window. The journey was long and bumpy, and her heart gradually calmed down.

No matter what, as long as you can marry into the second prince's mansion, you don't need to worry about other things.

The sedan chair stopped in front of the Second Prince's Mansion, Xi Niang helped Xiao Mengying out of the sedan chair, and Xiao Mengying was brought into the Second Prince's Mansion by Xi Niang.

In the second prince's mansion, there were lanterns and festoons, full of festivities, full of people, and an endless stream of guests.

Jun Ziheng stood in the middle of the hall and waited. His face was handsome and fair, but his eyes were gloomy.

Hearing the movement, Jun Ziheng raised his head, and the moment he saw Xiao Mengying, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and walked over to hold her hand.

"The princess is really calculating."

"What did the second prince say? This princess has never plotted against you."

The second prince looked sideways at the person in the wedding dress, squeezed her hand and said: "I hope the princess will not regret it!"

"I hope the second prince won't regret the embarrassment he gave this princess today!" Xiao Mengying raised her eyes slightly, and the smile on the corner of her mouth deepened.
