Chapter Eighty-Three: Killing Two Birds with One Stone

Thinking about it, after all, what kind of virtue Zhen Nianshuang is, the people in Qingzhou City are all clear, and they learned that the city lord of Honghe Prefecture came to ask for marriage in person...... It's funny.

In the midst of everyone's suspicions, the young monk in brown robe threw a heavy blow again.

"Then you are lonely and unheard, Zhen Nianshuang is now not only able to alchemy but also to tame beasts, and his worth is not as good as before, getting her is to get a promising alchemist and beast tamer."

Moreover, Zhen Nian's double posture has been reduced, and he is no longer the same as before, but he looks stunning. How can you say that such a woman can not be tempted by others? The city lord of Honghe Prefecture came unexpectedly this time, and I don't know if the emperor in our Qingzhou City will give such a genius as Zhen Nianshuang to others. ”

As soon as these words came out, although everyone didn't want to believe it on the surface, they had to affirm it silently in their hearts.

During this period of time, there were rumors about the rise of Zhen Nianshuang in Qingzhou City, but everyone should not do it if they didn't see it with their own eyes.

But now that the city lords of Honghe Prefecture have come in person, the rumors must be true.

The reality fell in front of her, and even if the young woman was jealous, she had no choice but to secretly regret why she was not a gifted person.

Standing in the middle of the crowd in a black robe, Zhen Nianshuang heard these words, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a fierce color spread between his pupils.

She is not a commodity, how can she allow people to marry if they want?

Under the sleeves, Zhen Nian's palms were clenched into fists, and after a while, she quietly let go, she took a deep look at the convoy that had gone away, and turned to go home.

When the city lord of Honghe Prefecture came, there was a lot of commotion, and the news spread from person to person, and after a while, everyone in the entire Qingzhou City already knew about it, and Zhen Luochen and Zhen Changcheng naturally received the news.

The father and son were afraid that Zhen Nianshuang would act impulsively after learning the news, and they were about to go to her to discuss, but unexpectedly, as soon as they took action, Zhen Nianshuang came over first.

Finding that Zhen Luochen and Zhen Changcheng saw their expressions, Zhen Nianshuang probably guessed what the two of them thought, just as he expected: they didn't worry about her.

Being cared for by others, Zhen Nianshuang's heart is indeed warm, but regarding the so-called Honghe Prefecture City Lord's request to marry, she already has a plan, and she does not plan to rely on her family anymore.

In order not to let Zhen Luochen and Zhen Changcheng worry about themselves, Zhen Nianshuang gave them a dose of reassurance in advance.

"Grandfather, father, you have heard the rumors that I want to come to the city, but I am not one who is willing to let others control me, I have plans for this matter, you don't have to worry. Let me handle it myself. ”

"Since you have a plan, your father and I are afraid that you won't be able to think about it, it seems that we are too worried after all." Zhen Luochen was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.

It wasn't until this moment, looking at Zhen Nianshuang's calm and composed appearance, that he really realized that his granddaughter had really changed, not only in terms of talent, but also in her thinking.

In this way, even if he returns to the world after a hundred years, he doesn't have to worry about her being bullied.

And Zhen Nianshuang has his own ideas, Zhen Luochen and Zhen Changcheng will naturally not have much to do, and plan to support them silently behind their backs.

Early the next morning, Zhen Nianshuang appeared in the palace.

It has been more than half a month since Zhen Nianshuang left the palace, and he has never come back once during this period, and the subordinates in the palace have endured the low-pressure atmosphere in the palace all day long, and they are going to be scared out of their mental illness.

Seeing Zhen Nianshuang appear at the gate of the palace today, it was like seeing a savior.

One of the subordinates guarding the door outside the mansion hurriedly went to return, and the other directly invited Zhen Nianshuang in, for fear that she would leave if she was one step slower.

At this time, Jin Yuan was drinking tea with Chenhuan in the tearoom, and Chenhuan was talking about the news from the palace, saying that Xia Rushi, the city lord of Honghe Prefecture in the early dynasty, was a saint and proposed to marry Zhen Nianshuang.

In just a few words, the tea bowl in Jin Yuan's hand was crushed, and the tea was spilled.

After being silent for a while, he slowly condensed a sentence: "Just because he dares to think about the king's woman?" ”

"Yo, when did Zhen Nianshuang become your woman?" Chenhuan raised his eyebrows, smiling rather than smiling.

Although he had long seen Jin Yuan's feelings for Zhen Nianshuang, Jin Yuan had never admitted it in front of him, and every time he used the so-called holy decree he had made "before his death" as an excuse, at this time, he was a little surprised when he heard Jin Yuan admit it with his own ears.

In the face of Chenhuan's ridicule, Jin Yuan didn't plan to pay attention to it at all, but secretly planned Xia Rushi's death in his heart.

Just as he was thinking, there was movement outside the teahouse, and it was the housekeeper Tang Zheng.

"Qiyu is nine thousand years old, the princess is back, and the old slave has asked people to invite the princess to sit in the side hall."

Hearing that Zhen Nianshuang was coming, a glimmer of light flashed in Jin Yuan's dark eyes, and the previous gloom also dissipated a little.

Seeing that Tang Zheng was still hunched over in place, he nodded slightly: "Well, stand down." ”

After Tang Zheng retreated, Jin Yuan also got up from the mat, walked straight out of the tea room, and went straight to the direction of the side hall.

Leaving Chenhuan alone, he sat in the same place, looking at Jin Yuan's back as he left in a hurry, and smiled dumbly: "Jin Yuan, Jin Yuan, it seems that you are really trapped." ”

……

Zhen Nianshuang had just sat down in the side hall, and the people below had seven or eight plates of melon and fruit snacks with a smile on their faces, among which there were several types that she loved.

It just so happened that she didn't have breakfast when she came this morning, and she was also a little empty at this time, so she no longer restrained herself and began to eat by herself.

About three or five pieces of pastries were eaten, and Jin Yuan's figure also appeared in the side hall.

"I said I would leave, and it would be half a month to go, but now I am finally willing to come back."

Hearing the sound, Zhen Nianshuang didn't need to look up to know who it was.

Thinking of his original way of saying goodbye and the purpose of today's visit, Zhen Nianshuang couldn't help but blush a little, and felt that the pastries in his hands had become tasteless.

Looking at Zhen Nianshuang's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Jin Yuan guessed that this woman must have come today with other purposes.

Sure enough, after a short period of self-regulation, Zhen Nianshuang had already decided to be cheeky.

She put down the pastry in her hand, got up and walked in front of Jin Yuan, "Jin Yuan, let's hold an engagement ceremony." ”

"Because of Xia Rushi, the city lord of Honghe Prefecture?" Almost as soon as Zhen Nianshuang's words fell, Jin Yuan thought of the reason.

For no reason, my heart is a little dull.

Zhen Nianshuang didn't intend to quibble, and nodded straight, "Well, but it's not just because of him." In the past, there was a dust feather ze, and there was another Xia Rushi when it appeared today, and after trying to refuse, it was guaranteed that Li Rushi and Wang Rushi would appear. Perhaps, as you said before, I need a backer. ”

Such a generous admission made the boredom in Jin Yuan's heart dissipate a little.

After all, when she is in trouble, the first thing she thinks of is him, not someone else.

After a little silence, Jin Yuan nodded, "Okay, tonight Dust Yuze will hold a banquet to entertain Xia Rushi, and you will go with me." ”

"Hmm."

Zhen Nianshuang knew that after proposing the engagement, she really tied herself to Jin Yuan.

But after thinking about it, it is better to be tied to Jin Yuan than other people with ulterior motives.

The time of the day passed quickly, and Zhen Nianshuang was carefully dressed up by the maids of the palace in the palace, and after changing into robes, he looked like a princess.

Compared with the one I wore when I entered the palace last time, it was also a lot grander.

On the other hand, in the palace, tonight's banquet was mainly to welcome Xia Rushi, and he came to court, so this banquet was attended by the Manchu Dynasty civil and military and his family, including Zhen Luochen and Zhen Changcheng, who are now only wearing empty titles.

Before the banquet began, the side hall of the palace was already filled with ministers and their families, and everyone was waiting for the protagonist of the night to take place in different thoughts.

Dust Yuze, Xia Rushi, Jin Yuan and Zhen Nianshuang arrived outside the side hall where the banquet was held almost at the same time.

Looking at Zhen Nianshuang and Jin Yuan, who were dressed as women on the side, coming side by side, Chen Yuze's eyes sank.

He didn't post to Jin Yuan today, why did Jin Yuan come, and he came all the way with Zhen Nianshuang.

When Jin Yuan arrived, his plan was probably a little difficult to execute.

Thinking of this, Chen Yuze secretly scolded Jin Yuan ten thousand times in his heart, and then said straight to Zhen Nianshuang: "Zhen Nianshuang, come to my side." ”

spoke softly, as if he had a great relationship with Zhen Nianshuang, and he just hoped that she could get to know each other.

No one knows, in fact, after Xia Rushi came to ask for marriage, Dust Yuze had already prepared a countermeasure.

It is impossible to let Chen Yuze give Zhen Nianshuang, an alchemist and beast tamer, to him, and the only way is to ...... Let her be his man.

In this way, not only did he reject Xia Rushi and solve Zhen Nianshuang's predicament, but he could also take it and the Hou Mansion behind him for his own use, killing two birds with one stone, why not?

It's a pity that Dust Yuze never expected that such an arrogant person as Jin Yuan would come uninvited.

And Dust Yuze's thoughts were obvious, Zhen Nianshuang naturally understood, but from the beginning, her choice was not him.

Hearing Chenyuze's call, Zhen Nianshuang didn't plan to receive this ulterior motive, but took a half step back and blessed his body slightly, "I don't know what Your Majesty is calling your courtiers?" ”

With a single sentence, she wiped herself away from Dust Yuze's beautiful words, and the word courtier was even more revealing her current identity to Dust Yuze.

When Chen Yuze heard this, he pretended not to understand, and no longer gave Zhen Nianshuang a chance to continue this topic, and walked into the side hall.

Looking at the back of Dust Yuze, Zhen Nianshuang pursed his lips, knowing that tonight would not be smooth sailing.

She was contemplating the possibility of what would happen at the next banquet when her hand suddenly wrapped in a large, warm and generous palm.

Immediately, a low sigh of relief came from his ears: "Don't worry, everything is with me." ”

"Hmm." Zhen Nianshuang nodded.

Not to mention that she has cooperated many times before, since she already plans to use Jin Yuan as a backer, she should trust her a little more.

After his thoughts cleared, Zhen Nian's backhands passed through Jin Yuan's fingers, and the two of them interlocked their fingers.

The play always has to be a full set, isn't it?

In the side hall, as soon as the civil and military officials greeted the arrival of Chen Yuze, Jin Yuan led Zhen Nianshuang into the hall until he took the first seat above the left side.

The situation of the two today is not as awkward as last time, and this time they are alive and presenting a state of being one husband and wife.

Seeing this, the hearts of the people present began to play Xiao Jiujiu.
