The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 854: Can’t Marry

Now that Zhiluo knew that this matter concerned the safety of his cousin Meng, he had to get to the bottom of it.

"This is all I know. My father told me quietly because he didn't want me to get involved." Ding Lan'an originally wanted to take this opportunity to help Meng Shisan and gain his favor. However, as soon as he started to investigate, Ding Mao stopped him and analyzed the seriousness of the matter to him.

His father didn't really want to talk to him about everything, but he knew his son best. His father knew that he was stubborn and would not explain the difference between right and wrong to him. Just trying to stop him would not be enough.

After all, Ding Mao couldn't keep an eye on Ding Lan'an for twelve hours.

Zeng Chongqi continued to walk out: "This matter has already developed to the point where it is no longer possible."

Cousin Meng also took in Du Laoer's mother, the mother of one of the two witnesses, and also a key figure who could bring Li Heng down. He didn't know this yet, but he had just heard from his two younger sisters that they sent New Year gifts to Cousin Meng. Cousin Meng revealed it to her two younger sisters in person, and he also knew it.

As for whether or not to mention this key point to Mu Zhi, he felt that he should consider Ding Zhenfushi. Since Ding Mao did not want his son to get involved in the muddy water of the fight for the throne, as a close friend, he should also avoid it.

So Zeng Chongqi remained silent after saying this.

Ding Lan'an had no idea there was such a plot, and followed him out of the government office, asking questions all the way: "What do you mean it has developed to the point where Miss Meng has no control? What can't be controlled? Is Miss Meng in danger? Does the Second Prince dare to break into the Meng Mansion... Gu Xiu! Say something!"

"It has nothing to do with you." Zeng Chongqi was pestered to no end, "Just listen to Lord Ding and don't get involved."

"You are the one who is meddling in this matter. I am not meddling in this matter. I am just worried about Miss Meng..."

"My Yaoyao doesn't need you to worry about this!"

Zeng Chongqi interrupted Ding Lan'an's monologue, and Ding Lan'an was scolded so hard that he stood still.

"Muzhi, you...you should listen to your mother, find a good girl and get married quickly!" Zeng Chongqi had expressed this idea to Ding Lan'an before, but Ding Lan'an didn't listen and he didn't repeat it. But now he had to bring it up again.

After saying this, he stepped out of the Beizhenfusi Yamen, strode towards the horse led by Xiang Lin, jumped on the horse, and rode away with Xiang Lin, one in front and one behind, to do his job.

Ding Lan'an was left alone, standing beside the mounting stone of the yamen, and it took him a long time to recover.

Dachui looked at Ding Lan'an's resolute profile, and the more he looked, the more he felt that his son was quite pitiful: "Son?"

Ding Lan'an ignored him, and after a while he turned back to ask Dachui, "What does he mean by that?"

"What I mean is that the young master cannot marry Miss Meng." Dachui was honest. Since his young master asked sincerely, he answered sincerely as well.

Ding Lan'an opened his mouth, but the breath was stuck in his chest, making him panic. He wanted to yell at Dachui, but found that he couldn't utter any powerful words. He could only hold it in, and he slowly clenched his fists.

Da Hammer stared at his young master's fist which was getting tighter and tighter, and with a sense of self-preservation he took a step back, then another step.

It would have been better if he didn't retreat. After he retreated, Ding Lan'an couldn't hold back and punched him in the chest. The punch was neither heavy nor light. He took three more steps back. Ding Lan'an didn't even look at him and turned back to the government office.

Dachui caught up with him and said, "Sir, didn't you say you were going to do some work outside as well?"

"Let's find my father first." Ding Lan'an felt that he could dig out more in-depth information about the Dengshan collapse incident from Ding Mao.

Because of Zeng Chongqi's words, Ding Lan'an turned back to look for Ding Mao, the chief official of the Northern Pacification Division. At the same time, Lu Luo also went to the Beijing government office to look for Lu Sen because of the argument he had with Zeng Chongqi last night.

At this critical moment when the wind and rain were blowing, the thunder and lightning were flashing, and the final frost was about to fall on someone's house, Lu Sen was actually most afraid that Lu Luo would appear in front of him.

Every time at this time, nothing good will happen.

Lu Luogan stood there. Lu Sen asked him to sit down, but he refused. "Don't worry, big brother. I didn't come here to do anything. I just wanted to ask you, big brother, whether you have approached Commander Cheng about finding me an official position?"

It was because of this matter that Lu Sen breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement: "Yes."

"Did Cheng Xin make things difficult for big brother?" Lu Luoyi thought about what Zeng Chongqi had said to him. He felt that his elder brother must have been wronged.

"You are..." Lu Sen thought for a moment and figured it out, "Do you think that your elder brother was ridiculed by Lord Cheng because of you?"

"Have?"

"No."

Lu Luo didn't quite believe it: "Brother..."

"Really not." Lu Sen was amused and laughed out loud. He stood up and pushed Lu Luo to sit on the round stool, then sat down himself and said, "I was planning to arrange you into the Jinyiwei, whether it was the Northern Zhenfu Division or the Southern Zhenfu Division, as long as Lord Cheng nodded, it would be fine. But he didn't nod, so I didn't force it. If this road doesn't work, try another one. There's no need to be a Tiqi. Or do you... want to get your hands on the Embroidered Spring Sword?"

In the last sentence, he also wanted to know what his younger brother really wanted.

Lu Luo shook his head: "No, I didn't. I just heard Master Zeng mention it last night. I would have known it before, but now that I know, I have to ask. I don't want my brother to suffer because of me."

"It's good that you have this intention." Lu Sen took this opportunity to talk about his experience after entering the officialdom, "But Luo, the officialdom is no less than the battlefield. On the battlefield, there are swords and sabers, and the victory or defeat is decided in a moment. In the officialdom, there are hidden arrows and insidious tricks, and a clan can be wiped out silently and invisibly. Being wronged, ridiculed, and humiliated, as long as you don't lose your head, this is inevitable in the experience of the officialdom."

His tone contained a sigh and also a sense of relief: "A Luo, you feel sorry for me, and I am very happy for you, but you also need to understand that once you enter the officialdom, you need to take every step steadily and not be unable to tolerate even the slightest bit of badness."

"Brother, I understand." Lu Luo really understood. If he encountered bad things, he could endure it, but if his family was treated badly because of him, he would definitely feel guilty.

"The situation is uncertain recently. When it settles, your military position will probably be determined as well." Lu Sen had been planning for Lu Luo's official position, but because of the contest between Li Shou and Li Heng, it was somewhat affected. Both brothers have the surname Luo, so it's not good to be too conspicuous at this time. It's time to stop and wait until the dust settles. Regardless of who wins or loses, the younger brother's military position can have a definite progress.

"Okay." Lu Luo was used to a leisurely life and wanted to get an official position. At first, it was all because of Meng Shisan. Later, the more he understood the current situation of the Lu Mansion and Li Heng's ambitions, the more he changed his original intention.
