No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 161
Crown Prince Wei of the Prince Regent's Mansion strolled leisurely into the Jingyuan as usual, and he was also the only "outsider" who could enter and exit the Jingyuan at will without being blocked.

But today he was stopped outside Xie Yan's study, "Wei Shizi, please stay."

The folding fan twirled around Wei Changting's fingertips, and he smiled and said: "What? Your prince is still sad and doesn't want to see people anymore?"

Dou Ying cast a helpless glance at the dude-like man in front of him, and said, "Your Highness is injured and resting."

"Huh?" Wei Changting immediately regained his spirits, "Injured again? Is your prince unlucky this year? How long has it been since he was injured again?"

Although Xie Yan was born and died on the battlefield in his teens, because of his strength, he was rarely injured.

He had just been seriously injured when he returned to Beijing a month ago. It is hard to say whether he has recovered or not, but he was injured again.

This frequency is already a bit high.

Duoying twitched the corners of her mouth and remained silent.

Wei Changting tapped his shoulder with a folding fan and said, "Rang, I'll go in and have a look."

"The lord said that he didn't see anyone." Die Ying said.

"Then where was he injured, can you tell me?" Wei Changting said angrily.

Die Ying thought for a while, but the prince didn't say that he couldn't say it. He pondered for a while before saying: "The Luo family, the prince has gone to see General Luo."

"Oh." Wei Changting poked his chin with a folding fan, thoughtfully, "The Luo family... Hey, how did you get hurt, Xiying?!"

Duoying looked back, only to hear a sound of wind passing behind her head.

Wei Changting quickly flitted past the overlapping shadows and rushed towards the door of the study next to him. Just as he had a smug smile on his face, he realized that his clothes were being pulled from behind, and his hands were still a little away from the door.

"..."

With one hand, Dou Ying firmly grasped Wei Changting's clothes, and said helplessly, "Young Master Wei, this kind of trick has already been played."

Wei Changting, whose scheme was exposed, patted Die Ying's hand away angrily, "Die Ying, your prince didn't call a doctor, did he?"

Folding Shadow was silent, Wei Changting showed a clear look, and said: "Let me in, if he dies inside, we still have time to collect his body."

Although he knew that Wei Changting was talking nonsense, Duoying hesitated.

Naturally, the prince's orders must be obeyed, but as the prince's bodyguard, his first priority should actually be to protect the prince's safety.

At this moment, Duoying suddenly regretted that he had stopped Wei Changting too quickly just now.

Duoying is still hesitating, the door of the study has been pulled open from the inside.

Xie Yan stood at the door, frowned slightly and looked at them coldly, "What are you doing?"

Die Ying immediately cupped his hands and said, "Report to the lord, Prince Wei, please see me."

Xie Yan's eyes fell on Wei Changting, Wei Changting said: "Yesterday you asked me to investigate the matter of Yanghou Mansion..."

Xie Yan glanced at him, turned around and walked back to the study.

Seeing this, Wei Changting immediately followed him in, and just as he sat down, he looked at Xie Yan carefully, but he didn't see any signs of injury in him. Could it be that the overlapping image was exaggerating?

"Dieying said you were injured?" Wei Changting asked directly, "What's going on?"

Xie Yan said indifferently: "It's okay, I had a fight with General Luo." In fact, he was beaten unilaterally, but the injury was not serious. In this regard, General Luo still has a sense of proportion even when he is furious.

Wei Changting was a little surprised, "Hit again? Could it be that Luo Yun finally came to his senses and started to get angry at you for rejecting his precious daughter?"

When it comes to Wei Changting, he looks a little gloating, "Let me just say, you will definitely have to be beaten again. But...you shouldn't be unable to beat Luo Yun, right?"

The corners of Xie Yan's lips curled slightly, and Wei Changting couldn't help staring at him with wide eyes.

It's not that Xie Yan can't laugh, but Wei Shizi doesn't quite understand, what is there to be happy about being beaten?
Xie Yan said: "I went to the Luo family."

"And then?" Is it an honor to come and beat yourself up?
"I asked General Luo to marry his daughter to me."

"..." Wei Changting was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses. He forcibly twisted his stiff neck and looked at Xie Yan. After a while, he said, "Are you thinking about it again? No wonder Luo Yun wanted to beat you. If I General Luo, I have to break one of your legs."

Not to mention the Luo family, even ordinary people have to beat him when they encounter this kind of thing.Before the empress dowager proposed marriage, the Luo family hadn't objected to the girl and had a crush on you, yet you refused!

If it's just a refusal, it's fine, it's a bad match.But you went to ask for marriage a few days after you refused. Are you asking for marriage or begging?
Xie Yan was not angry because of his offending words.

Wei Changting couldn't help sighing, "Do you think you are sick? You happily agreed to the marriage offered by the empress dowager. If you are more sincere and ask for a kiss, the Luo family might agree. You have to refuse first." He once changed his mind just a few days later, what do you make the Luo family think? You can walk out of the Luo residence intact, General Luo is indeed worthy of being a first-class and loyal pillar of great prosperity."

If it weren't for the fact that you are the Regent of Dasheng and want you to suppress that group of demons and goblins to assist the little emperor, the Luo family would have demolished you.

Xie Yan closed his eyes, and once again endured Wei Changting's annoying thoughts.

I don't know if I was blind back then and picked such a chatterbox as my subordinate.

"Shut up." Xie Yan said in a deep voice, after all, he couldn't bear it anymore.

Wei Changting resolutely shut up, looked at him and asked again: "What's Luo Yun's attitude? Your beating won't be for nothing, right?"

Xie Yan glanced at him coldly, and Wei Changting understood, "Yes, it seems that the Empress Dowager and Princess Changling must be invited."

Xie Yan said angrily: "Shut up, I will visit Mrs. Lingchuan Hou tomorrow."

"My mother?" Wei Changting was puzzled, "You see my mother... uh, that's right. But, will the Luo family really not drive my mother out together?" His old mother must lose face.

Since Xie Yan wanted to propose marriage to the Luo family, and also messed up the matter that the empress dowager originally wanted to grant him a marriage, he had no choice but to redeem it himself.

If you want to ask for a kiss, you must first go to the Luo family to formally express the meaning of the regent's residence. The status of the empress dowager is not suitable. After what happened last time, doing it again seems to be using your status to force the Luo family to make a decision.

Neither can Princess Changling. Although she is Xie Yan's cousin, her seniority is not high enough. Unless Xie Yan has no other elders, it is reasonable for her sister to come forward.

Xie Yan naturally didn't want to pass through Prince Mu's Mansion, so his mother, Mrs. Lingchuan Hou, was indeed a good choice.Moreover, his mother has a good relationship with Mrs. Luo, so it's easier to talk to her when she visits her.

Xie Yan lowered his eyes and said, "I'll go to the palace later to see Aunt Huang, and then Aunt Tai Hua."

Wei Changting couldn't help but widen his eyes, and then he couldn't help laughing, "They treat you well, but you still want to take Joe. Now the Luo family doesn't want to talk to you, but you are very considerate."

This was Wei Shizi's most restrained expression.

The eldest princess of Taihua is Xie Yan's aunt. Emperor Gaozu has no direct sisters. This eldest princess is the only living cousin of Gaozu.

Back then, this was also the eldest princess who helped Gao Zu a lot, and her title has gradually progressed from the princess to the present.

In terms of age, she is the oldest in the entire royal family, even King Ning, King Mu and even the Empress Dowager have to call her Huangjie.

However, this Eldest Princess has a calm and calm personality. She lost her husband and had no children in her early years and never remarried. After the death of Gaozu, she has been avoiding living outside the city and living in seclusion. In addition, she is very old and rarely walks around in the imperial city.

She is indeed the most suitable person to help Xie Yan with his marriage.

Xie Yan was too lazy to listen to his ambiguity, and said: "I still have something to do, if you are in a hurry, go out of the city to help Gu Jue."

Wei Changting flatly refused, "My son is very busy, so I don't have time to take care of you. All right, I wish you success soon, and everyone can rest assured that you will marry a princess sooner."

"Well, let me say one last thing." Wei Changting thought for a while and said with a serious face.

Xie Yan gritted his teeth and said, "Say."

Wei Changting smiled and said, "My lord, are you just shooting yourself in the foot and asking for trouble?" Before Xie Yan could react, Wei Changting had already gone out in a flash, leaving only a bunch of arrogant words behind. A smug laugh.

Die Ying, who was guarding the door, couldn't help sighing as he watched Wei Shizi leaving in a cool way.

Prince Wei, have you forgotten that you are always working under the prince.

When does he want to trouble you and can't find it?His Royal Highness the Regent has never been a magnanimous person.

Xie Yan didn't have the time to think about how to wear Wei Changting's shoes. The most important thing for him now was to win General Luo's understanding and convince the Luo family of his sincerity.

And that little girl...

Thinking of Luo Junyao, Xie Yan's expression softened a little.

Although the girl was very magnanimous, Xie Yan also understood a truth.

The more affectionate it is, the harder it is to let go. The girl really likes him, but not to the point where she has to.

His previous refusal must have made her feel bad. How to redeem and go further needs to be carefully considered.

His Royal Highness the Prince Regent has never paid attention to a woman other than his own relatives in his life, and it feels a little difficult to obtain for a while.

At this moment, Wei Changting poked his head in from the door again.

Before Xie Yan could open his mouth, he quickly said: "I just want to remind you of one thing. Since you have made up your mind to marry a girl from the Luo family, your cheap son should think about how to solve it. You don't want to wait for the future The legitimate son born to the concubine has become the second son of the regent's palace, right? And...do you really want the little concubine and Xie Chengyou to live in the same palace?"

After saying that there was no need for Xie Yan to chase people away, Wei Changting retracted his head and disappeared outside the study again.

Naturally, Xie Yan wouldn't be angry, he would solve these things without Wei Changting mentioning them.

Raising his hand to take a file on the desk and flipping through it, Xie Yan thought to himself: "It seems that I still have to go to Mu Wangfu. But before that, I have to deal with Luo Yun and Luo Jinyan and his son first."

Xie Yan never thought that the people of Prince Mu's Mansion could be his hindrance, after he had abandoned Prince Mu's Mansion a long time ago.
