Ling'er's eyes immediately turned red, and she asked tearfully, "Madam, do you think I'm too greedy and don't want me anymore?"

Lin Yiwan quickly tried to appease him, "How could that be possible? Our family, the Marquis Zhan Yi, is wealthy and powerful, so how could we not be able to support you? I just don't want to keep you by my side. You can't be my maid for the rest of your life, right?"

Ling'er raised her eyebrows: "Why not? I will stay by your side and serve you until the day I can no longer serve you!"

Lin Yiwan interrupted: "What nonsense! I just want to find you a husband. I don't intend for you to marry far away. Can you tell me first if there is any servant or guard you like?"

Ling'er thought carefully for a moment before answering hesitantly, "This servant hasn't come into contact with any other servants or guards. All I've seen are shadow spirits. He's the only one hanging around right next to me!"

Lin Yiwan asked tentatively, "How about Yinghun? You marry him? Even though he's a secret guard beside the Marquis, there's no rule against him marrying a wife. As long as you agree, I'll ask him what he thinks. Then I'll give you two a courtyard in the mansion. When you're not on duty, you can live separately!"

Ling'er has never really thought about getting married. She has been with Lin Yiwan since she was a child, and her mind is full of loyalty to her.

She had made up her mind to serve her master wholeheartedly until her death.

But she was really nervous when she was suddenly asked to get married again.

But when she thought that the person she was going to marry was Yinghun, she suddenly felt a sense of anticipation.

Then he could buy her snacks more openly instead of secretly.

After hesitating for a moment, she spoke: "Madam, there is no need to ask Yinghun. I can ask him myself!"

Lin Yiwan's eyes widened in surprise. Huh? The little girl is getting braver now?

She immediately urged: "What are you waiting for? Go quickly. I'll wait for your results so that I can find the Marquis to set an auspicious date for your wedding!"

Ling'er was not in a hurry to leave, but helped her put away the clean clothes, and then reminded her not to soak for too long, so as not to catch a cold from the cold water.

Lin Yiwan wiped it with a brocade cloth and waved her hand: "Go quickly, Shadow Soul is definitely no match for the Marquis. He might be injured now. Go and take a look!"

Ling'er took a bottle of ointment and walked to the secret guard room with ease. Sure enough, she saw Yinghun grimacing at the wound on his arm.

Seeing the long bloody wound, she widened her eyes in shock: "How could he be injured so badly? Isn't this a competition? How could the Marquis be so ruthless?"

Shadow Soul was so shocked that he quickly lowered his sleeves and asked in surprise, "Ling'er, why are you here? Aren't you serving Madam?"

Ling'er glanced at him unhappily without answering. She simply pulled his sleeve aside and gently applied the hemostatic medicine she brought to the wound.

Yinghun stared at her blankly, a hint of unconcealed doting flashing in his eyes.

After applying the medicine, Ling'er inadvertently raised her head, but because the movement was too large, she directly hit Yinghun's chin.

"Bang!" He wailed subconsciously in pain.

Ling'er nervously hugged his face and said, "Are you okay? I really didn't mean it. Who told you to get so close to me?"

The two eyes suddenly met, and sparks flew.

Ling'er has been carefree since she was a child, and she was slow to understand matters of love between men and women.

But she knew that Shadow Soul was good to her!

So she was willing to say nice things to please him. In addition to coaxing him to buy snacks for herself, she also hoped that he could protect Lin Yiwan wholeheartedly.

Now, having just heard his wife say that she wanted to marry him, she felt a little embarrassed to be alone with him again.

She quickly looked away and said, "Why are you staring at me like that? You're staring at me like that! I'm getting pissed!"

Yinghun got excited and said subconsciously: "Ling'er, I think you are very beautiful!"

She nodded: "Well, I think I look good too, especially when I wear the velvet flower you gave me. The lady even praised me!"

Yinghun couldn't help laughing. This girl, she still couldn't understand the implied meaning?

Who would have thought that the next moment she would ask crisply: "Yinghun, I want to ask you, do you want to marry me as your wife?"

Yinghun was confused. He suspected that he was hallucinating. Was it because he was too eager to be close to her that such words suddenly appeared in his mind?

As he hesitated, Ling'er's pretty face suddenly turned pale and ugly. Her original confidence vanished in an instant. She almost asked in a tearful voice: "You, you don't want to?"

Shadow Soul grabbed her wrist and asked seriously, "Tell me again, what did you just ask?"

Ling'er was startled by his eagerness, but she still stubbornly asked again: "I say, are you willing to marry me?"

Shadow Soul nodded heavily: "Of course I am willing. Anyone who doesn't want to is a fool!"

Ling'er finally revealed a happy smile: "Okay, let's go find the Madam right away. She said that after the wedding of Prince Li and the Princess, she will let us get married as well, and she will even set up a small courtyard for us in the mansion!"

She paused, then lowered her voice and said, "Madam also said that when we are not on duty, we can close the door and live our own lives!"

Yinghun was so happy that he was at a loss as to what to do. He could finally get married in his lifetime.

He couldn't wait to share the news with Yingyi, but when he remembered that he was helping the Marquis take a cold bath, he gave up the idea.

He has to get the marriage done quickly, otherwise, if he misses this opportunity, he will never get it again!

Seeing that both of them agreed to the marriage, Lin Yiwan quickly invited Zhan Yan over.

Soon after, news spread from the mansion that Yinghun and Ling'er had decided to get married, and would hold their wedding ceremony next month, and would be granted residence in Hualin Courtyard.

Ying Yi was extremely jealous. He never expected that Ying Hun would be able to take Ling Er home just because he didn't compete with the Marquis.

He was drunk that night, and when he came back, Zi'er had already helped him guard outside the main courtyard all night.

Smelling the alcohol on him, her face was full of disgust.

He just frowned and said, "Go wash up first. Are you trying to suffocate me to death?"

Yingyi was afraid of her and ran away quickly.

In the early morning, Zhan Yan took him to attend the morning court. He was driving the carriage with a droopy head.

Zhan Yan couldn't help but ask from inside the car, "Yingyi, are you still hungover? Today's morning court session is extremely important, and we absolutely cannot make any mistakes!"

Ying Yi quickly pulled himself together and said, "I admit my guilt and will drive the carriage!"

As soon as he entered the court, Xiao Rui announced an important decision, which was that he would resign from his position as the right prime minister and from then on, he would only serve as the president of the Imperial College.

Just one sentence caused an uproar in the court and caught the censors who were preparing to impeach him off guard.

They had already memorized the speech by heart, and they were planning to scold Xiao Rui so much that he was at a loss and had to give up the idea of ​​marrying into the Meng family in shame.

Who would have thought that he would resign right away!
