Remarry 9,000 Years Old

Chapter 155 There is no need to die together

It was difficult for the Duke of Zhenguo to describe his feelings at this moment.

Originally, he hoped that this girl would get married as soon as possible, but when she said in person that she agreed to get married, he felt mixed emotions.

"Think it over carefully!" He was a little exasperated. "Once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. From now on, your parents are just passersby."

The prince's face darkened visibly. Is it appropriate for a grown man like him to stand here?

"It's okay. I've thought about it." Lin Jingshu waved her hand carelessly. "Now that the most important thing you've been worrying about has been solved, can I go to Madam Ning's house with the prince and the others for the banquet?"

The Duke of Zhenguo almost couldn't breathe. He was here feeling worried and troubled, but this girl was only thinking about her marriage being settled so that she could go out with her fiancé.

It is absolutely true that girls are extroverts.

Shen Nanqiao suppressed his smile and stepped out to smooth things over.

"Don't worry, Duke. Today, the banquet in my house is for the female family members. The prince is just returning home with his husband. He will never give anything to anyone privately. You can rest assured."

Originally, she came here today just to test the Duke Zhenguo's attitude. If he had no objection, she could first verbally finalize the marriage, then ask the Imperial Observatory to choose an auspicious day, and then have the emperor personally issue an order to come and propose marriage.

Who knew that the prince had a quick temper, and when he saw the official matchmaker coming to his door, he was afraid of losing his future wife, so he simply arranged the marriage himself.

Although the Duke of Zhenguo was reluctant, his daughter had already agreed, and as a father he couldn't break up the couple, so he nodded in anger and let Lin Jingshu go out.

Lin Jingshu was very happy and her joy was beyond words.

Since the last palace banquet, she had not had the opportunity to travel. Now she was like a tired bird returning to the forest. She didn't even have time to change her clothes and pushed Shen Nanqiao out of the mansion.

Ning Su completed the task entrusted by the emperor, and according to the rules, he should bring the prince back to the palace to report.

But the prince had just accomplished a major event in his life on his own and was still excited, so he thought about it and came up with an idea.

"Da Ban, please send Madam back home first. The capital has been in turmoil these days." He suggested righteously. Fearing Ning Su's objection, he further explained, "The two girls are not safe either. I will have to work harder. I will still have time to accompany Da Ban for a walk and then return to the palace."

Unfortunately, Lin Jingshu didn't hear the hidden meaning and immediately patted her chest to make a promise.

"Your Highness, just go back to the palace without worry. There is no need to trouble the officials. Madam Ning's safety is in my hands. Let alone three or two spies, even a small group of soldiers can be taken care of." She was afraid that Ning Su would not believe her, so she swore, "Back when I was outside the Great Wall, I fought against six or seven good soldiers by myself and never lost."

The prince was angry that she didn't understand, and he was anxious, so he retorted.

"That's because they're giving face to the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, so they're showing some mercy and won't really bother with you. But the bad guys out there won't show any mercy to a woman."

Lin Jingshu has always been confident in her kung fu, and she became unhappy when she heard this.

"If the prince doesn't believe me, why not let me demonstrate it to the palace guards?"

After saying that, he was ready to take action.

The factory guards standing by were watching closely, fearing that they would be singled out to fight against this young lady.

The prince became increasingly anxious.

"My boxing skills were taught by my great companion himself. Let me teach you a few moves. If you are defeated, let us take you back."

The young and energetic boys and girls had no intention of taking a step back, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.

Shen Nanqiao was afraid that the two would really start fighting if they had a disagreement, so he quickly came out to smooth things over.

"Let the Crown Prince take the trouble to escort us. He didn't even greet the Grand Princess when he came out just now. He is always lacking in courtesy. It won't take much time for him to escort us over and pay his respects."

Although Lin Jingshu regretted missing the opportunity to protect the beauty, she thought what Shen Nanqiao said was reasonable, so she had to give up the idea of ​​protecting the beauty.

Seeing that she was about to get on his carriage, Shen Nanqiao felt sorry for the prince. It was such a perfect opportunity to enhance their relationship, but the girl just didn't want to do so.

She suddenly had an idea and reached out to grab Lin Jingshu.

"Miss Lin, please go and squeeze in with the prince. I have something private to tell my husband."

Although Lin Jingshu is used to being careless, she is by no means a person without tact. There is no reason to stop a couple from talking in private.

Thinking that she could chat with Shen Nanqiao as she pleased when she got to Ning Mansion, she willingly got on the prince's sedan chair.

After lowering the curtain of the carriage, Shen Nanqiao sighed deeply.

Although he shamelessly lied to create an opportunity for the two of them to be alone, he didn't know whether the prince, this young man, would make the girl angry.

She subconsciously looked at Ning Su and was about to say something, but she saw that the factory official who had been silent since a moment was obviously in a trance.

This was new; he rarely lost his focus in front of her.

However, Ning Su had sharp senses and he quickly realized that Shen Nanqiao was looking at him.

"Let's go."

Shen Nanqiao secretly clenched his hands.

"Is there anything wrong?"

Ning Su never kept her in suspense. He glanced in the direction of the prince's sedan chair and whispered.

"Once this marriage is decided, the Queen Mother will get the news soon, and then there will be a lot of trouble."

Shen Nanqiao nodded, this was expected.

When the young prince came to the throne in his previous life, he also went through quite a few twists and turns. However, because Emperor Ming left a will at that time, even if the empress dowager was not very satisfied with the candidate for the crown princess, she could not act rashly in front of everyone.

But this life is different.

The prince took the initiative and arranged the marriage in advance, which was equivalent to bringing the conflict between the empress dowager and the emperor to the surface in advance.

"Hasn't the Emperor made preparations long ago?"

Ning Su stuffed the hand warmer into her hands.

"It's one thing to be prepared, and it's another to actually fight."

Shen Nanqiao was startled.

"Real swords and guns? Are we going to fight each other?"

Ning Su glanced at Shen Nanqiao, who was so nervous that his whole body was stiff, and nodded calmly.

"Not impossible."

The prince's marriage is an important bargaining chip for the Queen Mother and even the Sun family for the next few decades. Once it is missed, it will be a huge loss, and they will naturally not let it go.

"But hasn't the emperor summoned Prince Cheng and the Duke of Zhenguo, who hold military power, back to the capital?"

Ning Su himself had experienced rebellions by vassal kings, so he was relatively calm.

"The Sun family has led troops to fight for generations, and our ancestors have produced several famous generals. Although they handed over their military power, their influence in the army is still there." He paused, trying to soften his tone so as not to scare the little girl. "There are quite a few who support the Queen Mother, such as the Ninth Prince who is far away on the border. If they fall out, there will be a tough battle to fight."

Shen Nanqiao grabbed Ning Su's sleeves with both hands.

"So are the odds good?"

Ning Su looked at her. When the princes rebelled many years ago, she was still a young girl who knew nothing about the world. She was afraid that she could not remember anything.

"The battlefield is ever-changing, and it's hard to predict. Even if you are fully prepared, you may not have an absolute chance of winning." Feeling the little girl's tighter grip on his wrist, he softened his tone again, "But it doesn't matter. Even if the sky falls, I will find a way to protect you. I will arrange for someone to take you out of the city in advance."

I thought Shen Nanqiao would be moved after hearing this, but unexpectedly the little girl held his hand even tighter and spoke righteously.

"If you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken. If that day really comes, either you go together or you stay together."

Ning Su felt that she was talking like a child, but he couldn't find the words to refute her, so he reached out and touched her head.

"You forgot that you still have your mother alive. There's no need for you to die with me."

Seeing that the little girl was getting anxious, he quickly added another sentence.

"Don't worry, I won't let the situation develop to that point unless it's absolutely necessary."

Shen Nanqiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak when the carriage suddenly stopped. She was caught off guard and almost fell out.

Fortunately, Ning Su was quick-witted and grabbed the person.

"What's the matter?" He didn't look very happy.

Then I heard the driver outside reply in fear and trepidation.

"Someone from the Ninth Princess's residence suddenly blocked our way."
