Chapter 309 Ye Lingwu, Marry Me
The night was dark, and the capital still had to burn the stove to survive the early spring night. There were only a few scattered lanterns lit in the small house in the south of the city, and the only bright one was Ye Lingwu's bedroom.

The clapper just rang at Xushi, Rongxiu and Qingju were making the bed in the back room, Ye Lingwu was sitting under the flower window with a thick cloak wrapped around her, looking at the full moon hanging on the treetops, her heart was full of melancholy.

Yuan Tao brought hot soup and said, "The mistress has been out of her mind since she went to Fu Guogong's mansion today. Did someone in Fu Guogong's mansion make the mistress angry?"

Ye Lingwu shook her head and whispered, "I can't figure it out myself."

Yuan Tao was stunned: "What can't the mistress figure out?"

Ye Lingwu sighed and didn't answer.

There are many things that she can't figure out. In the final analysis, she can't figure out why she is so unlucky, and she has a lot of troubles all day long.

Ye Lingwu was secretly sad when she heard a knock on the door from a distance outside the courtyard.

"Yes...it's the sound of the house door. It's so late, who will come to visit?" Yuan Tao's back stiffened, and she said with some fear.

Rongxiu and Qingju came out of the back room, their faces were also tense, after all, there are no servants and no guards in this house, so it is difficult to deal with villains.

"Mistress, why don't Qingju and I go take a look?" Rongxiu asked.

Ye Lingwu nodded, turned her eyes to the house door from the flower window, and said: "No matter who it is, all guests are welcome. If you don't report to the house, then don't bother."

"Yes." Rongxiu and Qingju agreed in unison.

The cold wind outside was howling like animals, Rongxiu and Qingju leaned towards the gate of the house each holding a lamp.

The knock on the door came intermittently, now and then, just when Rongxiu and Qingju thought the outsiders were leaving, there was another knock on the door, which startled them both.

"Who... who... who!?" Qingju shouted boldly.

It was quiet outside the door for a while, and then a clear and deep male voice came slowly.

"I."

Qingju didn't know who it was yet, but when Rongxiu heard the sound, a name popped up in her mind - Shen Zhan.

"Say your name, report to the house! How would I know who it is if you don't tell me your name?" Qingju said forcefully.

Rongxiu's eyes became dizzy when she heard the words, she patted her arm lightly, and said in a low voice, "It's Young Lord Shen."

Qingju let out a breath of cold air, and said in shock: "Master Hou?!"

After the words fell, another clear male voice came from outside the house.

"... Ning Beihou, Shen Zhan."

Qingju froze, completely lost the momentum of shouting just now, pulled Rongxiu and asked what to do, what to do, what to do.

Rongxiu was helpless, after gouging her out, he shouted to the people outside the door: "Master Hou must have come to look for the mistress, but unfortunately the mistress just fell asleep, it is not appropriate to meet guests, so I invite Master Hou to go back."

It was quiet outside the door for a while.

Just when Rongxiu and Qingju thought that the person might be gone, they heard Shen Zhan's voice: "It's only nightfall, and your girl must not be asleep yet. Go and call back, saying that Benhou is waiting for her to come out outside the mansion."

"..." Rongxiu and Qingju looked at each other in blank dismay.

Under balance, he dared not continue to drive people away, so he could only bring Shen Zhan's original words to Ye Lingwu.

"what?"

Ye Lingwu said in a daze: "He... he really said that?"

Qingju nodded heavily and said: "Yes, mistress, Master Hou said that he will be waiting for you outside the mansion. It seems that you will not stop until then."

"...Eating too much wine, what kind of madness is this late at night." Ye Lingwu muttered softly.

Qingju didn't hear clearly, and said in a daze: "What did the mistress just say?"

"It's nothing."

There was a moment of silence in the house.

"...It's so late, Master Hou must have something very important to come to the door, why don't you go see the mistress?" Yuan Tao hesitated for a long time, and couldn't help but say.

Ye Lingwu pursed her lips and did not speak.

Rongxiu frowned and said: "If the mistress doesn't want to go, the servants can go and refuse Hou Ye."

Ye Lingwu looked at the dark door of the house over there, thought for a moment, turned over and lay down on the bed, and complained: "I really owe him, I don't say anything when we meet during the day, and now come to my house at night to find trouble."

The door of this small house is very simple, just lift the wooden door bolt up.

Qingju was about to open the door when Ye Lingwu held her down and said, "Don't follow me, go back to the house first."

The three female envoys looked at each other, puzzled but unable to refute, so they could only agree. Rongxiu handed over the lamp in her hand to Ye Lingwu before retreating, and after a simple instruction, she led Qingju Yuantao back to their respective bedrooms.

Ye Lingwu lifted the door latch and gently pushed the door open, only to see Shen Zhan standing outside the door alone, with one hand on his back, and no one was with him, not even Yue Yang.

The night fell on his black robe, making the whole person even more gloomy, only the golden crown had a slight reflection.

Ye Lingwu's heart skipped a beat, and she stepped forward slowly and said, "Why did Lord Hou come to visit suddenly at such a late hour?"

Shen Zhan looked at the girl, his delicately sculpted face was indistinct.

After a while, he suddenly moved forward with long legs, and hugged the petite woman in front of him tightly.

Ye Lingwu let out a cry of surprise and lost her soul in fright. It was not until Shen Zhan lowered her head and sprayed the scorching breath on her slender neck that she could barely react and said, "What are you doing, let me go!"

The more he struggled, the tighter the man hugged him.

Feeling the strength and strength of the arms that bound her, the warmth of her chest, and the piercing sound of her heartbeat.

Ye Lingwu blushed and said angrily, "Shen Zhan! What are you doing!"

"You... If you do this again, I... I will sue the old lady!"

"Okay," Shen Zhan said lightly, and the scorching breath that sprayed on his neck was transferred to his ears, "It's just right, everyone knows about us, and it's convenient for me to come to propose marriage."

A bolt of lightning exploded above Ye Lingwu's head.

"what!?"

Ye Lingwu was stunned, and said in a daze: "What nonsense are you talking about? What's the matter with us, please let me go! Scoundrel, hooligan, if you do this again, I will not be polite!"

"If only I were a hooligan, I would have snatched you away three years ago, regardless of etiquette."

Shen Zhan's tone was heavy, like a bottomless deep pool, giving people an invisible depression.

Ye Lingwu frowned, and raised her head from Shen Zhan's embrace with difficulty, just in time to meet his deep eyes, which contained a sadness that even thick eyelashes could not conceal.

Ye Lingwu's heart palpitated for a while, and she said in a daze, "What did you just say?"

Shen Zhan pulled the corner of his mouth, slowly lowered his head, put his forehead against his forehead, and slightly parted his lips: "Ye Lingwu, marry me."

"I don't care about the heirs, as long as I can be with you, it's good to be with you until the end of life. Maybe I will never be in your choice, but I will be very good to you, so good that you will no longer feel lonely. Ending old age will be a leisurely and good thing, so good that people in the whole capital dare not talk about you anymore."
