Chapter 79

"It seems that Miss Shen said that she was not interested in the position of Crown Princess, but she was telling me a joke."

Shen Lili was watching the soldiers who were practicing in the barracks when Lu Chaoyan suddenly appeared behind him.

Looking back, Shen Lili's hair was blown by the breeze, and behind her was the blue sky, with white clouds floating quietly by.

She smiled slightly and said, "If it wasn't for the young master's refusal, I might never have met King Zhenbei, would I?"

Lu Chaoyan walked towards her slowly, leaned closer, looked at Shen Lili and said, "Once you enter the palace gate, it's as deep as the sea, and from now on, I'm afraid it will have nothing to do with all the good things in this world."

Hearing what he meant, it was a bit regretful, but Shen Lili couldn't tell him that he and Meng Xuan were just in a cooperative relationship, and there was no need to say something irrelevant to irrelevant people.

"Anyway, everyone thinks that I will be the most suitable candidate. Rather than being coerced into taking this position, it is better to accept it readily and choose someone who is pleasing to the eye, wouldn't it be better."

Lu Chaoyan came to Shen Lili this time just to test her attitude towards Meng Jing.

"The king of Zhenbei is cold by nature and reticent, so he thinks that a gentle and understanding person like the King of Nato is more suitable for Miss Shen."

As soon as Lu Chaoyan finished speaking, Shen Lili looked at him with a frown and asked, "Who is my right to be with, what right do you have to tell me this? If you want me to be with the king of NATO, strengthen him The forces behind it, you shouldn't have rejected my marriage proposal at the beginning. Being with you, isn't it also helping the NATO king?"

There was silence for a long time, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. Lu Chaoyan also realized that he had indeed crossed the line, and immediately apologized: "Sorry, it was I who crossed the line."

Wanting to turn around and leave, he walked a few steps and looked back at Shen Lili, persuading him gently: "The king of Zhenbei is not a good man, if you insist on doing this, no one will be able to save you."

"Since you rejected me, why bother?"

Lu Chaoyan saw that it was useless to say more, so he turned his head and left.

Looking at their leaving figures, Shen Lili murmured: "It's really inexplicable, why is it so important to Meng Xuan? Is it because he is the backer of my father's deadly opponent?"

He was afraid that he would become a force of his opponent, and he was unwilling to accept his kindness. This Lu Chaoyan could really make him so popular!

Meng Wanzhou and Meng He had nothing to do, so they went out for a stroll, and saw Lu Chaoyan who had parted with Shen Lili.

Meng He asked suspiciously: "What's the situation with Lu Chaoyan and Shen Lili?"

First, the divorce made Shen Lili a joke in the whole capital, and then they met each other without saying a word, but now they meet secretly again, there must be some secret in it!
Meng Wanzhou sneered, "Maybe this is Lu Chaoyan's move."

"A move?" Meng He was a little confused, and said, "If it's a move, it's impossible for the tenth brother not to see it."

"Why do you think Lu Chaoyan dare not accept Shen Lili's love?" Meng Wanzhou suddenly stared at Shen Lili's back with great interest, and asked Meng He.

Meng He thought for a few seconds, and said uncertainly, "Could it be because of the ninth brother?"

This is the only reason Meng He could think of.

"That's right, but if Lu Chaoyan had agreed to Shen Lili's marriage proposal earlier, the emperor would have listened to the prime minister's advice and made the ninth brother the crown prince. But Lu Chaoyan refused, which happened to give us a chance."

Although Meng Wanzhou didn't like Lu Chaoyan and his father very much, he still had to thank Lu Chaoyan for this matter. If he didn't refuse, he would have no chance of winning if he wanted to bring down Meng Jing.

"But it's not these things that we have to worry about now, but Zhang Cai. We must win over this person, otherwise we will suffer dumb losses in this matter."

What Meng He is most worried about now is Zhang Cai. If the military power in his hands is really handed over to Meng Xuan, then the two brothers will not have the slightest advantage.

Meng Wanzhou also understands this, but Zhang Cai is a bit rigid and difficult to get along with, and it is as difficult as heaven to get military power from him.

"Now there is no way to get military power from Zhang Cai, let's go and see the deployment map first!"

Meng Wanzhou turned around and walked towards the tent with the military deployment map, followed closely by Meng He, the place was heavily guarded and no one was allowed to approach, except for the two generals and princes.

"My lords, please come inside."

capital palace
"Mother, the eldest princess is here." Zi Lan led Meng Laishu to Susan Shan.

Su Shanshan was preparing the ingredients for tonight's meal. When she saw Meng Laishu coming, she handed over the work in hand to Nanny Lu, and then sat down: "Shu'er, sit down."

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Meng Laishu had a sweet voice, piercing eyes, and was about the same age as herself, but different in seniority.

At the beginning, Susan was not able to accept these things, but after a long time, she got used to it naturally.

"It's rare for Shu'er to leave the palace for activities, so let's stay and have dinner together tonight."

Susan hadn't seen her for a long time, so it would be nice if she could stay with her to relieve boredom.

"Then Shu'er would be more obedient than respectful."

Su Shanshan glanced at Zilan behind her, Zilan understood instantly, and she led everyone to retreat, Dongzao was also sensible, before Zilan called her, she followed the maids and retreated together.

Meng Laishu didn't understand what Su Shanshan wanted to do, so she asked cautiously: "The queen mother is..."

Su Shanshan didn't hide anything, and said directly: "The queen mother asked them all to retire, because she has something to discuss with you alone."

"The queen mother said so."

There are only their mother and daughter in this room, and the things they want to discuss are not trivial matters.

"Your father intends to give you a husband. Does Shu Er have a favorite young man?" Su Shanshan's tone was gentle, afraid of scaring Meng Laishu.

Meng Laishu turned pale in shock, looked at Su Shanshan in fear, and said, "Why did the father suddenly mention this matter?"

The emperor, who is the father, never cared too much about himself, but now he suddenly cares about his life-long affairs, and he is afraid that he has already made a decision for her.

"Your father just mentioned something casually." Su Shanshan saw that Meng Laishu's expression was not right, so she didn't ask any other questions.

It's just that Meng Laishu didn't believe it was that simple, and was afraid that the person her father arranged for her would not be someone she would like, so she got up and knelt in front of Su Shanshan, crying and saying: "Mother, Shu'er hasn't met yet. The person I like doesn't want to get married! I also ask the queen mother to tell the emperor on behalf of Shu'er, don't make decisions for Shu'er so early!"

I also had no choice but to enter the palace, and now I saw Meng Laishu kneeling in front of me begging for me, as if I was young back then, my heart tightened, so I helped Meng Laishu up, and said: "Your father, mother, queen I will persuade you, but this matter will happen sooner or later, and you have to be mentally prepared in advance."

Meng Laishu nodded, thinking that Su Shanshan would stay for dinner by herself, and Meng Tang would also come, just about to ask, guessing the question she would ask, Su Shanshan said in advance: "Don't worry, only Mrs. An will be with us tonight. meal."

"That's fine."

The frightened and tense heart finally let go, and Susan kept stroking her hand to comfort her.
