After escaping with her bestie, she became the white moonlight of the crazy prince

After the other party stood in front of the table and saw his true face, Shen Chu and Jiang Fuling spoke at the same time, "San'er?"

There was surprise in his voice, clearly an acquaintance.

Seeing another customer coming, Fu Jinnian moved his butt to make room for the man who looked like he was about to run out of breath. "Brother, sit down."

He said to the other party in a friendly manner.

Although he was in a hurry, Xu San saw that someone had offered him a seat, so he sat down without asking any questions. He picked up a pair of clean chopsticks and picked up two prawns to feed himself.

After taking a few bites to ease his nerves, Xu San got straight to the point. He looked at Shen Chu and Jiang Fuling with a puzzled expression, "How could you still eat?"

Shen Chu asked back, "Why can't you eat it?"

Didn’t Xie Ming find her yet?

Seeing Shen Chu and Jiang Fuling so calm, Xu San immediately knew that these two people must be completely unaware of the current situation, otherwise they would definitely be more anxious than him.

Thinking of this, Xu San sat down in his seat and looked at Shen Chu and Jiang Fuling with a serious face. "I rushed to the capital to look for you as soon as I found out you were missing. It was supposed to take three days, but I galloped day and night. In the end, someone gave me some time to appear in front of you at this time."

He started his story from the time he left Qingxi Town. At first, Shen Chu and Jiang Fuling didn't understand why he was saying all this. Until Xu San changed the subject, Shen Chu and Jiang Fuling were both stunned.

"Three days ago, the border of Qi was ambushed by soldiers from Qing. Captain Lu and Lieutenant Lu, who were stationed at the border, fought together to defend the enemy. Although they defeated the enemy, their fate remains uncertain. According to He Changshi, who was stationed at the border with them, they were both seriously injured on the battlefield. Since they haven't been found for so long, they might have... perished."

"Today, news reached the capital. Someone came to the palace to meet His Majesty and suggested that, to appease the souls of the two heroes, Your Majesty should decree a marriage for them. Do you know who he proposed?"

"The deceased unmarried daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, and the youngest daughter of Minister Jiang, who died before marrying."

As the last word fell, Shen Chu and Jiang Fuling stood up at the same time, "Is he sick?"

-

Xie Ming and Shang Heng walked on the street, searching the crowd with their eyes. Although this method was a bit inefficient, there were so many people in the capital that it was extremely difficult to find someone. Although they had sent out guards, they could not just sit and wait for news, so they could only use this clumsy method to find someone, just like countless times before.

Xie Ming had forgotten how many times he had walked this street.

But at this moment, a guard suddenly jumped out from beside Xie Ming, saluted him respectfully, and then reported important news in a low voice.

When hearing the news, Xie Ming did not send Shang Heng away, but let Shang Heng stand by and listen.

In this way, Shang Heng heard the guard's words clearly.

"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, the news of Captain Lu and Lieutenant Lu's heroic deaths at the border has reached the capital. Upon hearing this, the Third Prince has come to the palace to meet His Majesty. To comfort the spirits of these heroes, His Majesty implores His Majesty to arrange a marriage for them."

Upon hearing this, Xie Ming and Shang Heng's expressions changed. Xie Ming's face darkened, and he clenched his fists. "Who does he want to recommend to the Emperor?"

The guard who came to announce it said in a trembling voice, "Miss Shen and Miss Jiang."

His suspicions were confirmed. Xie Ming's body was filled with murderous intent, his eyes frighteningly cold. The fist hanging at his side made a crackling sound as the joints rubbed against each other. He suddenly chuckled, his voice tinged with madness, "It seems that my brother knows about this."

Shang Heng drew his knife and pointed it at the guard's head, his voice cold, "Are you sure the news is true?"

The guard bowed respectfully to him. Although his voice was trembling, his tone was extremely firm. "General Shang, this is the latest news from the palace. I dare not speak carelessly."

After confirming the authenticity of the matter, Shang Heng could no longer stand and turned around and left.

Fuling is still alive and well, how can she marry a dead person?

No, absolutely not!

Xie Ming looked towards the direction of the imperial palace, with the corners of his mouth raised in a sarcastic manner.

"Don't stop looking for someone. Tell me as soon as you have any news. I have more important things to do right now."

Even when they were alive, the two Lu brothers were not worthy of Shen Chu. How could they still want Chu'er to marry him after they died? It was wishful thinking.

Since you like to arrange marriages for others so much, why not let me go to His Majesty and ask for a marriage for you as well.

The eldest daughter of the Minister of War is mentally retarded. Although she is already eighteen years old, her mind is still like that of a child. She is more than qualified to be a match for her royal brother.

"Let's go to the palace and ask for a marriage for my brother!"

-

"Who suggested this? You're still thinking about the dead? Do the two brothers know they're getting married?"

Shen Chu's face looked very ugly, and his eyes were fixed on Xu San.

Xu San pulled her to sit down and fed Shen Chu a shrimp with clean chopsticks. "Don't be angry, don't be angry. His Majesty hasn't agreed yet. Besides, someone has already come to the palace to persuade His Majesty to reconsider."

When Xu San said these words, his originally tense expression relaxed a lot. Hearing this, Jiang Fuling frowned, "Who?"

Grabbing some melon seeds from Fu Jinnian's hand and slowly eating them, Xu San asked meaningfully, "Did you ask who went to persuade them?"

Seeing that he was asking knowingly, Shen Chu also took a few melon seeds from Fu Jinnian's hand, but she was throwing the melon seeds at someone, specifically Xu San. "If you have something to say, just say it directly. Why are you still keeping me in suspense at this time?"

This is the truth, but Xu San has already formed the habit and can't change it in a short time. He touched his nose, laughed dryly twice, and spoke directly.

"Upon hearing the news, your two fathers rushed to the palace. Although they encountered each other and had a brief argument on the way, their purpose in entering the palace to see the emperor was the same—to persuade His Majesty not to agree to the Third Prince's proposal."

Hearing Xu San say this, both Shen Chu and Jiang Fuling showed a hint of guilt on their faces.

In their eyes, whether it was Minister Shen's family or Minister Jiang's family, they were just parents who appeared in their lives. But to Minister Shen and Minister Jiang, they were their daughters who had grown up in their care.

As parents, how could they sit still and watch their daughter die and still be missed?

Sensing that the atmosphere was a little off, Xu San frowned and quickly changed the subject, "Your Majesty must have considered this, which is why he has been hesitant to agree. This is a good thing, because because of His Majesty's refusal, two more people will enter the palace."
