Chapter 172: Face

"Three days later, Nan Lingfeng returned."

This is Xie Zhan's message, and Mingxiu is a little worried.

It was the opening day of her restaurant, and if she hadn't stared at it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have been able to rest assured.

But sending Nan Lingfeng back to the Southern Dynasty is something that has been promised a long time ago, Mingxiu thought, she will not be the protagonist that day, go and come forward, and then retire early It shouldn't be much of a problem, maybe she can still catch up with the opening.

With this, Mingxiu had to go to the city two days in advance, first go through the prepared things and make sure there was no problem.

Ming's mother was reluctant, but there was no reason to stop it.

In the city, at the entrance of Ming Ji Restaurant.

"Lord Showa."

Mingxiu rarely heard such a name, and only after a reaction did he realize that he was calling himself.

Look back.

"Why is the second prince here?"

She has only one relationship with Nan Lingfeng, but she is still impressed by the second prince, and she will not be embarrassed to meet and not know each other.

Nan Ling Feng seemed very honored, "The county lord still remembers Ling Feng. ”

He was flattered and had to say that it made Mingxiu's vanity a little secretly satisfied.

The high-ranking one, he was not bad, just because she remembered it, he was so honored.

"That's nature." No matter what he thinks in his heart, at least Mingxiu on his face is not moving, "The second prince is here to eat?" ”

This street is full of food, and Mingxiu can be regarded as knowingly asking.

The two are really unfamiliar, and they don't have anything to say at all, so they can only look at each other and be embarrassed.

But Nan Ling Feng didn't seem to notice, he showed regret on his face, "Ling Feng will soon go back to the Southern Dynasty, and he has had the honor to taste the delicious food of the restaurant opened by the county lord, and I don't know if I can still eat such delicious food in this life after leaving." ”

"If the second prince doesn't dislike it, I'll treat you to a meal." It's far away to be a guest, just don't open your mouth, this point can still be done by Lao Mingxiu.

Nan Lingfeng looked flattered, "This ......" He seemed to feel inappropriate, but he wanted to eat it, so he could only say: "Then thank you to the county lord." ”

Let Sanniang cook a table of specialty dishes herself, Mingxiu smiled, "There's nothing to thank or thank." ”

Leading him into the store, he sighed pointedly: "I hope to see the county lord open the restaurant to the Southern Dynasty." ”

"I haven't even gained a firm foothold in the desert, and the Southern Dynasty will have to wait for a long time." Mingxiu lowered his head to pour tea, but did not deny that he had such ambitions.

Nan Lingfeng seemed to appreciate it very much, "The desert woman is heroic, and Ling Feng yearns for it." ”

"I wonder if the second princess has decided?" Isn't he going to marry the princess of the desert as a concubine? I married him when I longed for it, and I was really a prince.

"Not yet." Seeing the surprise on Mingxiu's face, Nan Ling Feng showed just the right amount of amazement, "Ling Feng already has a candidate in his heart, but it's just ...... Other girls may not be able to look at Nan. ”

"The second prince is humble, and he hasn't asked how he knows that he can't look down on him?"

He can be regarded as a good character, and he is from an extraordinary background, if he wants to marry far away from the Southern Dynasty and cannot meet his relatives in this life, I am afraid that most of the nobles in the capital will be willing to marry him.

Nan Lingfeng's eyes lit up slightly, stared at Mingxiu, and said, "I'm afraid of a sudden beauty." ”

"My desert woman doesn't care about these, if you have a sweetheart, you can explain it directly to others, if you are willing to have the best of both worlds, you don't want to have no regrets."

Without noticing Nan Lingfeng's eyes, the water was boiling at this time.

Mingxiu is skilled in making tea for him.

"Second prince, please."

"Thank you, Lord Shire." Nan Lingfeng took the teacup with both hands, "That...... I wonder if the county lord is willing? ”

The hand holding the teapot shook, and the hot tea spilled on the table.

"The county lord isn't hot, is he?"

With a face full of concern, Nan Lingfeng's big hand was about to cover the back of her hand.

Mingxiu avoided it at the right time, "It's okay, the second prince laughed, Mingxiu looks like no salt, and it can't be matched." ”

Just kidding, Xie Zhan, who is familiar with and likes it a little, proposed marriage, but Mingxiu didn't agree, let alone Nan Lingfeng?

What's more, Mingxiu thinks that his desire to marry is not sincere.

The desert wants to make peace with the Southern Dynasty, she is noncommittal about this, but if she wants to give up her life, she is unwilling.

It shows that it is good to show selfishness or anything, anyway, the knife will not hurt if it doesn't fall on you.

"Ling Feng fell in love with the county lord at first sight, if the county lord is willing to be a concubine with Ling Feng, Ling Feng will treat him well for the rest of his life."

Mingxiu twitched the corners of her mouth, thinking about how to refuse more tactfully.

"The second prince seems to be very interested in the future princess of this king."

Xie Zhan suddenly came in from the door, staring at Nan Lingfeng tightly, as if a word was squeezed out of his teeth.

Not only Nan Lingfeng, but Mingxiu didn't expect him to come suddenly.

Standing up and looking at Xie Zhan, Mingxiu frowned slightly and didn't answer.

"Lord Showa is the regent's fiancΓ©e?" Nan Lingfeng looked at Mingxiu and Xie Zhan in disbelief, as if he didn't know anything about this matter.

"That's nature, everyone knows it." It seemed that Xie Zhan seemed to be very sure of swearing, but he was secretly constantly observing Mingxiu's face.

For fear that she would refute in front of Nan Lingfeng.

If this is the case, Nan Lingfeng is afraid that he will really marry her back.

Fortunately, Mingxiu was always silent, and did not refute or agree.

But her appearance fell into the eyes of others, which was a tacit acquiescence.

Xie Zhan breathed a sigh of relief.

"I see, it's Ling Feng who is offended." Nan Lingfeng apologized to Mingxiu, and no one answered his words.

"There are many excellent women in our dynasty, and the second prince can choose another lover." Xie Zhan generously said that he didn't mind, he sat beside Mingxiu, and seemed to be very intimate with her.

Nan Lingfeng shook his head, "Ling Feng is not as blessed as the prince, and he can hug the beauty." ”

With regretful eyes, it fell on Mingxiu's body, and there was just the right amount of sadness in her eyes.

Mingxiu, who ate a meal, didn't know the taste of food, so it was easy to send Nan Lingfeng away, but Xie Zhan couldn't send him away.

"Is there anything else with the prince?"

Looking at Mingxiu with burning eyes, Xie Zhan had a little joy in his eyes, "You didn't refute me." ”

He thought that Mingxiu avoided him, but he never thought that she would show possession so intimately, but she never refuted it.

Mingxiu frowned, "It's just an expedient measure, can't the prince see it?" ”

Naturally, he could see it, but he still deceived himself and felt that even so, she didn't show great rejection, because she had him in her heart.

In order to prevent Mingxiu from saying more ruthless words, Xie Zhan turned to say: "Nan Lingfeng wants to marry you, and the purpose is not simple. ”

"I know he just wants what I have." For example, the curved plough and the method of soil cultivation.

These two things are of great significance in the desert, and the Southern Dynasties are naturally covetous.

This time, Nan Lingfeng came to the Southern Dynasty to ask for a princess, and naturally he also wanted to marry back the most useful woman.

And Mingxiu appeared in his sight at this time, so naturally he wouldn't want to let go easily.

It was inevitable that Nan Lingfeng would set his sights on Mingxiu, but what Xie Zhan didn't expect was that he would start doing it so late.

When he learned that he was leaving, Xie Zhan was relieved, maybe Nan Lingfeng was not as shrewd as he imagined, but now it seems that he is underestimating the enemy.

But even so, it is still impossible for him to marry Mingxiu.

"In order for him to completely die, I want to ...... Before he leaves, tell the world about your relationship with me. ”

The Southern Dynasty attached great importance to women's chastity, and even aristocratic men could not tolerate their wives marrying others before marrying them.

Therefore, even if Nan Lingfeng coveted what Mingxiu had in his hand, as long as the news of her marriage to Xie Zhan was confirmed, all his calculations would be in vain.

However, Mingxiu was unwilling.

"If I don't let go, can he still rob it?"

Now that it is within the scope of their desert territory, if Nan Lingfeng really dares to make a strong move, isn't he afraid that Xie Zhan will let him stay here forever?

Even if Nan Lingfeng asked to marry in front of everyone, the ministers would not allow Mingxiu to marry to the Southern Dynasty.

It is true that she is just an insignificant county lord in the desert, and many veteran nobles who have been serious for many years look down on her, but as long as the ministers of the desert have no dissenting intentions, they will not allow her to contribute to the desert and contribute to the Southern Dynasty.

The DPRK and the Central Committee are all human spirits, and they can do things that harm others, but they must not harm their own interests.

Once the national strength of the Southern Dynasties is strong, they are bound to finish the game.

Xie Zhan naturally didn't know this truth, and he made this request to make Nan Lingfeng die and establish his position by Mingxiu's side at the same time.

But I don't want to be seen through by Mingxiu at a glance.

"I've convinced my mother." Xie Zhan looked at her with burning eyes, "When the emperor reaches the age of thirteen, I will select the queen to enter the palace for him, and then I will retire successfully, and I will not regret what I promised you." ”

"Then wait until the emperor turns thirteen."

It's really early to get married this year, thirteen years old is still a child, not even a flower, it can only be said to be a flower bone, and he can do it.

But this doesn't matter to Mingxiu, it's impossible for her to let go before the matter is a foregone conclusion.

Xie Zhan was not surprised to get such an answer, he was not afraid of being late, he was afraid that Mingxiu's parents would not be able to wait, and he would match Mingxiu out before he fulfilled his promise.

"Sanniang, come and clean up the table." They have already talked about this topic many times, and it can only be a clichΓ© to talk about it, Xie Zhan knows that it is impossible for her to let go at this time, and it is useless for the two to stalemate.

Naturally, it was impossible for the two of them to get in the way of other people's work and quit the private room.

"Lord Wang, I think, it's better that you and I don't see each other again, you come to me, no one dares to stop you, but in the eyes of outsiders, I have been pestering you."

Her reputation is bad enough, although Mingxiu has never taken this matter to heart, but she has to consider the feelings of her family.

What would they think if those ugly words outside fell into the ears of Ming Father and Ming Mother?

I won't punish her, but I'll feel uncomfortable.

Mingxiu thinks that she is still relatively filial, so she naturally won't rush to make her parents uncomfortable.

Even if Xie Zhan likes Mingxiu no matter how much he likes, he still wants to be embarrassed.

When someone said this, he couldn't hold it on his face.

"Since you're bothered so much, then I'll stop coming to the door."
