In Prince Mian's West Mansion, the lanterns celebrating the first month of the new year and all kinds of exquisite window decorations celebrating the New Year have been quietly taken down by the servants in the mansion.

Inside and outside the large and small halls of the Xifu, which have bright and clean windows, I don't know when, preparations have been quietly made for the auspicious wedding day of the newlyweds in the mansion. Lanterns and colors are everywhere, and they are full of joy.

King Mian has already discussed with the ministers of Honglu Temple several times. Regarding this powerful marriage between the Dajing Kingdom and the Beiduan Kingdom, they must make the Dajing Kingdom graceful and luxurious!

Lu Chengfeng walked into the palace gate and was dumbfounded for a moment, shouting loudly:

"What are you...?"

The steward of the Xifu, Jin Buhuan, was directing Xiao Guzi to climb up a tall bamboo ladder so that he could hang the bright red lanterns with the word "hi" to the beams one by one.

Seeing that Lu Chengfeng was returning home, Xiao Guzi slid down the bamboo ladder and landed steadily in front of him, as nimble as a happy monkey.

In the few months since I came to Xifu, Xiao Guzi has grown a lot taller, like a spring bamboo shoot moistened by the sun, rain and dew. In the blink of an eye, it has grown taller and taller than a tree.

Xiuzhu.

Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but stretch out the back of his hand and gestured at the height difference between Xiao Guzi and himself. Suddenly he felt that the child in front of him was, at some point, only half a head taller than him.

At first glance, it is clear that he is already a thin young man, but there is still a trace of youthfulness in his words and deeds.

After all, the immature air of a child has not been completely shed. Moreover, Prince Mian's Western Mansion is too big. Even though he has been in the mansion for many days, it is rare for him to see His Royal Highness the young grandson.

So, when the little guy saw Lu Chengfeng, he jumped up with joy, clapped his hands and said with a smile:

"Your Highness is back! I heard that Your Highness is about to take the bride into the bridal chamber. Congratulations and congratulations to Your Highness! Wish you all the best!"

Lu Chengfeng rolled his eyes helplessly, gently poked Xiao Guzi's forehead with his fingertips, and said with a smile while scolding:

"You yellow-haired boy! Who did you learn these words from? What do you know about marrying a bride into the bridal chamber? Hahahahaha..."

After laughing for a few times, Lu Chengfeng immediately put on a serious face, turned to the butler Jin Buhuan, and scolded:

"It's all my fault that you don't behave properly in front of this child! I left this good child to you, but he has been taught bad things!"

The steward Jin Buhuan had an apologetic smile on his face, nodded and bowed his head, and kept saying in response:

"Yes, yes, your Highness scolded you well, and everything your Highness said is right!"

"Come on! Regarding Xiao Guzi's discipline, I will settle the accounts with you when I have time in the future. I still have to plan for this child and cannot waste his clever embryo. Let's not talk about this for now. Let me ask you, is this in the house?

Dressing up, why? Who has a happy event?"

Lu Chengfeng put his hands behind his back and asked seriously.

When Jin Buhuan was asked this question, his small eyes stared blankly at Lu Chengfeng, and he could not close his mouth in surprise, as if the handsome and well-dressed young man in front of him suddenly suffered from amnesia.

"This, this, this..."

Jin Buhuan was hesitant and felt that he was in a dilemma. It was neither right nor wrong to say it.

If His Highness is really stimulated by this incident and suffers from hysteria or amnesia, wouldn't it add fuel to the fire if he directly exposes the truth at this time?

However, the truth is the truth, and he cannot deliberately lie because of this. The paper cannot contain the fire. His Highness will have to face it himself sooner or later.

.

While he was thinking hard, Xiao Guzi spoke in childish words, with an innocent expression on his face and made the point:

"Don't you know about your great joy, Your Highness? Everyone says that you are about to marry Princess Gu Lun of the Beiduan Kingdom! By the way, I heard that Princess Gu Lun is an extremely beautiful woman.

Woolen cloth!"

This kid really can't help but pick up the pot!

Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but give him a sharp look and scolded him rudely:

"What's wrong with learning? Just learn these things from them! Children, what do you know? Go, go, do your job!"

This was the first time that Xiao Guzi was scolded loudly and fiercely by Lu Chengfeng. He couldn't help but feel aggrieved and said:

"Oh... I'm not happy for His Highness. As long as His Highness is well, I, Xiao Guzi, will be even happier than if I had such a great happy event!"

When Lu Chengfeng heard this, his tone instantly softened, and he gave serious instructions:

"I don't blame you, it's just me who's in a bad mood today. Go back to your room quickly, read and write more when you have time, and stop doing these menial coolie jobs with them. If anyone disagrees, just say it was my order.

Go for it!”

Xiao Guzi nodded obediently and ran away.

Only then did Lu Chengfeng's face darken, and he said sternly to Butler Jin, who was standing still and not daring to move:

"Jin Buhuan, did you hear clearly what I just said?"

"Yes! This slave obeys His Majesty's orders!"

Jin Buhuan knelt down and kowtowed.

"Get up, let me ask you, do you take Xiao Guzi's words seriously? Why did I also hear another theory? They said that it was not me who wanted to marry Princess Gu Lun of the Beiduan Kingdom, but Nianjiao who wanted to marry their Beiduan Kingdom.

Gong Ziyu is about to be crowned king!"

Lu Chengfeng took a long sigh and asked.

"Well, this servant is just in charge. The prince and princess asked me to instruct the servants to organize themselves first, so I will organize them first."

Jin Buhuai's eyes were spinning rapidly in his sockets, and he answered without missing a beat.

After a while, he walked a few steps closer to Lu Chengfeng on his knees, lowered his voice and said:

"By the way, the princess also told me that when you are free, we can go together to pick out the phoenix crown and harem that the woman will wear on the wedding day."

"The woman's phoenix crown and harem? She asked me to pick it? The princess ordered it?"

Lu Chengfeng muttered to himself and repeated Butler Jin's thoughtful answer.

Isn't it obvious that Lu Chengfeng still couldn't escape the disaster?

Yes, after all, Princess Nianjiao is the princess's biological daughter and the eldest granddaughter of the Dajing Dynasty.

And I, Lu Chengfeng, was just a wild child who was born in troubled times and grew up in the mountains with no one caring about me.

A cynical and evil smile appeared on the corner of Lu Chengfeng's mouth unconsciously.

Just marry me! Young master, I can still be afraid of that shrew Guan Shanyue!

But, what about Miss You? Miss You’s biological father is still imprisoned in the dungeon of Dali Temple, and it is a difficult time for the family.

If I really have no connection with the You family, but I have met them once, and I have vowed to say yes in front of Brother You, I should still do what I say, so that I can live up to my reputation as a man.

Lu Chengfeng thought about it, and felt another heart-wrenching pain in his heart.

You and I, meeting each other by chance between heaven and earth, are enough to be thrilling.

Lu Chengfeng recalled their first acquaintance that day when they were discussing Taoism at Jiuxianju.

Miss You’s voice and smile are amazing

His posture is vivid in his mind, and his unique and innovative arguments are still in his ears.

If life is just like meeting each other for the first time, why should we have known each other before?

Now, let me make one last effort and struggle for you!

Then, you have yours and I have my direction.

I will always remember the light we shared when we met.

Lu Chengfeng thought silently in his heart and bravely opened the door of Prince Mian's study.

"Your Majesty, my dear father, please take advantage of the wind and bow to me!"

As soon as Lu Chengfeng stepped into the threshold, he fell to the ground in excitement and kowtowed three times.

King Mian had rarely seen Lu Chengfeng perform such a grand ceremony, and he was very suspicious in his heart, as if the child had taken the wrong medicine today.

Who gives way to Chengfeng, who grew up in the countryside and has been accustomed to no rules since childhood?

Today, he suddenly acted so obediently and respectfully, which actually made his own father laugh bitterly.

King Mian looked like he couldn't help but smile, his beautiful eyes were crooked, and he asked:

"Children riding the wind! Why are you doing this great gift today? Could it be that my son is traveling far away and came to say goodbye to his father in advance?"

King Mian said, and took a low look at Lu Chengfeng, who was kneeling on the ground.

He already vaguely knew in his heart that this child must have something to ask for, but he deliberately did not break the window paper and waited for Lu Chengfeng to muster up the courage to express his request to him.

"My child, I have something to ask for! Father, please agree to it! Otherwise, I will not marry Princess Gu Lun of the Beiduan Kingdom!"

Lu Chengfeng immediately defeated an army and said stubbornly.

"Huh? You child, if you have something to say, please speak up! Get up! What is going on? You want to yell like this, how dare you make such a joke?"

Prince Mian seemed to be a bit displeased. He quietly put his arms on the carved armrests on both sides of the Grand Master's chair, raised his chin slightly, sat up straight, and said.

"My child begs my father to save the suspect in the Shangyuan Lantern Case, Mr. Youfu of Nanshi Street! My child knows that he is innocent! It's all the barbarians from the north who are causing trouble in secret! My child has evidence!"

What Lu Chengfeng saw and heard today, including the Fire Devouring Thunder Bead, Divine Fire Thunder Gate, Bai Yu, etc., and the clues found about the case were all exactly like those of his father.

After hearing this, King Mian frowned tightly. After a long while, he shook his head heavily and feebly, and sighed:

"I know what you said is reasonable, but it's useless. He has been imprisoned in the dungeon of Dali Temple, and the emperor personally issued the order. My child, do you know that the burning of the dragon and phoenix lantern has been The stories people spread are incredible. As long as it is related to Daoguo Zuo, someone must be dealt with, and there is absolutely no possibility of the You family escaping."

"Why? It was clearly not the fault of the craftsmen who made the lanterns, but the people from the Divine Fire Thunder Gate at the north end who used fire control techniques to deliberately burn them! Knowing this, why do you let an innocent little lantern maker and businessman suffer on your behalf? "

Lu Chengfeng asked angrily.

"There is no fairness in the affairs of the world! The emperor said that if he died today, he would not survive the fifth watch! My child, you'd better leave this matter alone! You are now the quasi-consort of Beiduan Kingdom, why? How can you take the initiative to get involved with the people in the North End about the lantern case? It will do more harm than good to you."

King Mian taught him the truth earnestly. Seeing Lu Chengfeng's unwilling look, he changed his angle again and said righteously:
Chapter completed!
