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

Chapter 239 Selfishness

Shen Lanze narrowed his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Xu Beiting, you are too confident, right? This is the palace, not a place where you can do whatever you want!"

"Mr. Shen also knows that this is the imperial palace? If this matter is brought up in front of the emperor, I'm afraid you will have nothing to do with it!"

When the swords between the two were on the verge of breaking out, Su Changyu came to smooth things over with a smile.

"We're all colleagues, so there's no need to make such an embarrassing scene. If there's anything you can't sit down and talk about, you have to make a fuss in front of the emperor."

Su Changyu looked at the two people who were not talking, turned his eyes back and forth on them, and continued to persuade: "Okay, the emperor must have a headache now, if you are now making trouble in front of the emperor because of a small matter, the Lord will not say it if you don't uphold justice. I will definitely punish the two of you first, so how about going to have a cup of tea to calm down?"

"Hmph." Both of them snorted coldly at the same time, turned and left separately, leaving Su Changyu shaking his head helplessly.

In the second prince's mansion, Xiao Mengying was tasting tea when a dart was shot at the door.

The maid looked out of the fence vigilantly, only to see a big tree shaking outside, and a figure disappeared.

She pulled out the dart, and took the note on it and handed it to the person who was sipping tea.

After reading the handwriting on it, Xiao Mengying sneered, then threw it to the maid and said, "Dispose of it."

The maid took out a fire pocket and lit the note, and seeing the smiling person asked, "Princess seems very happy?"

Ever since the princess married into the Second Prince's Mansion, she had never seen her smile so happily, which made the maid a little curious as to what was written on the note.

"The fish is hooked."

Xiao Mengying guessed that the fifth prince would seek her cooperation, but she didn't expect it to be so fast. This is a good opportunity for her.

The maid looked surprised and didn't understand what the princess was talking about.

Xiao Mengying curled her hair on her chest with her fingers, and said lightly: "The fifth prince wants to cooperate with this princess, and he wants the key from the second prince."

"Princess, what are you going to do?"

"Naturally, it's cooperation. I try my best to help him get the key. There is such a good opportunity, how can I let it go?"

"But His Majesty..."

Xiao Mengying turned around and looked over, the maid immediately closed her mouth, she was satisfied with an evil smile on the corner of her mouth, she only hoped that Jun Ziheng could not turn over at all, only in this way would she think of her.

It was also one of Xiao Mengying's plans to use her strength from the Beiling Kingdom to make a comeback, otherwise the Second Prince would never be able to obey her.

What she has to do is to sow dissension and make the monarchy strife into chaos. Only in this way can the Beiling Kingdom have a chance to attack!
Shen Lanze looked at the high wall, turned and left, and went back to the courtyard to visit Lu Nanzhi first.

Seeing the sleeping person through the window, he unlocked the door, walked over, sat on the edge of the bed and gently stroked her cheek.

She is still as quiet, beautiful and innocent as before.

"Nan Zhi." He called out in a low voice, but he didn't dare to make it too loud for fear of waking her up.

At this time, Shen Lanze realized that she was not sleeping soundly, her brows were tightly frowned, as if she had encountered something difficult to solve.

Sensing someone approaching, Lu Nanzhi suddenly opened his eyes, and the moment he saw Shen Lanze, he was stunned.

She didn't expect him to appear here. Thinking of the nightmare she had last night, she turned pale.

Sensing something wrong with her, Shen Lanze patted her on the back and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Lu Nanzhi shook his head, then thought of Yan Wen and asked, "Where is Yan Wen? How is he?"

"I haven't found it yet." Shen Lanze lowered his eyes, covering up the guilty look in his eyes.

Lu Nanzhi knew him so well. Seeing Shen Lanze like this, he grabbed his clothes and asked, "You didn't look for it at all, did you? You never thought about Yan Wen, right? From the beginning to the end, he was just a pawn you used. wrong?"

"What about me? What am I?" Lu Nanzhi couldn't control the irritability in his heart and shouted loudly.

Frightened by her roar, Shen Lanze reached out and hugged her trembling shoulders, and said softly, "Nan Zhi, don't get excited, I have already sent Deadpool to look for Yan Wen. As for me"

Lu Nanzhi broke free from his embrace, and snorted coldly: "You dare not admit it!"

"What do I admit?"

"Admit that you are a selfish person!"

The more Lu Nanzhi spoke, the more excited he became. Tears rolled down his eyes and dripped on the back of Shen Lanze's hands. The hot tears made him panic and feel extremely distressed.

Lu Nanzhi knew how sad these words were, but she couldn't forget the days she spent with Yan Wen. She knew she shouldn't blame the person in front of her, so she couldn't help but say cruel words.

"That's right, I'm a selfish person. I only consider our safety. Others are never in my consideration. I'm just a..." Shen Lanze said softly as he saw her crying.

Lu Nanzhi covered his ears and yelled to interrupt him: "Enough, Shen Lanze, I won't listen anymore, I'm very irritable now, I want to be quiet, you go!"

Shen Lanze grabbed her arm, pulled her hand down and said again: "Nan Zhi, I know you are sad, but you have to be rational, we need to think about Yan Wen's matter in the long run."

Lu Nanzhi shook his hand vigorously, "Long-term plan? Long-term plan, shit, Shen Lanze, you are a coward, you don't save people because you are afraid of getting involved, right?"

Shen Lanze frowned and looked at her: "Nanzhi, I."

"Okay, don't explain to me, you go, I don't want to hear anything now, you go!"

Shen Lanze sighed, turned and walked out the door.

The door was closed again with a "bang", and there was a sound of locking the door outside the door, which woke Lu Nanzhi awake.

She hurriedly got out of bed and pushed the door open, only to find that the door was locked from the outside. Shen Lanze immediately patted the door and cursed: "Shen Lanze, you despicable villain! Let me out! You are imprisoned! Are you Anyone who breaks the law knows it!"

No matter how much she yelled, there was no response from outside, until she leaned on the door tiredly and slid down, and couldn't help complaining why she didn't run away just now!

It's all her fault that she was overwhelmed by anger for a moment and forgot about being locked up here, impulsiveness is indeed the devil!

She hit her head hard, and threw things around the room angrily.

At this time, she suddenly heard a hollow sound of "dong" coming from the opposite wall.

Lu Nanzhi seemed to have thought of something, hurried over, bent her fingers and tapped forcefully, the hollow voice sounded again, and her eyes lit up instantly.

I didn't expect there to be a darkroom here, but where is the entrance?

Just as she was touching her chin to look for it, a piece of broken porcelain was kicked into the corner. At the same time, she also noticed that there was an inconspicuous flower pot in the corner, which she would not have noticed unless she looked carefully.

She raised her feet and walked over, squatted down and stared at the flowerpot, trying to lift it up but found it was not moving at all. She pursed her lips and thought about it, then put her hands on the flowerpot and turned it around.

There was a "click", and the wall in front of him slowly opened, and it was pitch black inside.
