Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 86

"Okay, you guys wait here first."

The general hurried into the other courtyard with the letter, and handed the letter to the Fifth Prince.

The fifth prince opened the letter suspiciously, then frowned, "Bring people in."

The general turned around and left, heaving a sigh of relief at the same time, fortunately he didn't drive the two away, otherwise it would cause a catastrophe.

"Follow me, you two." The general's tone this time was much more polite than before.

Shen Lanze and Deadpool followed the general and came to a separate courtyard.

In the room, the furnishings are simple, there are only two rows of bookshelves, and there are a few sandalwood tables and chairs beside them, and various four treasures of the study are placed on the table.

The Fifth Prince sat beside the desk, shaking the folding fan in his hand, and looked up when he heard the sound, his eyes were cold and sharp, as if they could pierce a person's heart.

Shen Lanze met his gaze without the slightest fear, and met his gaze frankly, allowing him to look up and down.

The fifth prince waved his hand to make the guards in the room retreat, and put the folding fan in his hand on the table.Get up and come to Shen Lanze, looking down at him.

Shen Lanze stood where he was, with a calm face and indifferent eyes, without any emotional fluctuations.

"Are you guilty?"

The Fifth Prince's voice was low and full of pressure,

Shen Lanze lowered his eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up: "I don't know how the grassroots offended the fifth prince."

The fifth prince raised his hand and punched him in the chest, angrily said: "You are so daring!"

The two guards outside the door were also drawn to their swords, their hands on the hilts, ready to attack at any time.

"So it was you who delivered the dart that day!" The guard beside the fifth prince finally remembered that he had seen this person there.

Deadpool admitted coldly, "That's right, it's me."

"Who are you guys! What do you want to do?" the guard asked again.

"Fifth Prince is really broad-minded, and you can keep your skills around." Deadpool didn't answer his question, but said sarcastically.

"Who says I'm not good at martial arts, let's try it out!" The guard was already irritable, and was instantly irritated by him.

Just when the two were about to start their hands, a loud laugh came from the room, which made them stop what they were doing.

"You kid, you didn't tell me when you came back. It's a pity that I was still looking around for news about you, just because I was afraid that you would never come back to the capital, and you might not even see you for the last time." The fifth prince's tone was gentle, but with A little bit of blame.

"Didn't I tell His Highness already?" Shen Lanze said in a mysterious tone.

"You told me?" The fifth prince looked at him suspiciously, thought for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

"It turns out that you sent someone to deliver the letter from the Anping County Government. At that time, I guessed many people, but I didn't expect it to be you." The Fifth Prince smiled and shook his head.

Shen Lanze shrugged and spread his hands: "Actually, Your Highness should have known about it long ago, but he just didn't pay attention."

He deliberately left his own handwriting on the letter at that time, thinking that the fifth prince would think of him, it seems that he was too confident.

"As long as you're still alive." The fifth prince smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

The two seem very close, as if they were brothers who grew up together, but they did have a life-and-death friendship.

Because they were studying together in the academy, Shen Lanze once rescued the fifth prince who was poisoned by a snake, so the two became friends. When something happened to the Shen family, he just led the army to go out, and it was too late when he came back.

"Does the second brother know that you are back this time?" The fifth prince withdrew his smile, with a sad look on his brows.

You must know that the second brother and Shen Lanze have always been at odds with each other, and there is a deep conflict between the two.

When the Shen family was in trouble, the second prince demoted Shen Lanze as a slave in order to humiliate him. When he returned with his own troops, Shen Lanze had already been exiled from Beijing.

With a faint smile on the corner of Shen Lanze's mouth, he told the news that the second prince had sent guards to inquire about him.

I have been hiding my identity before because I feel that I am not strong enough. This time I will come to the fifth prince to help him, and at the same time I want to take the opportunity to enter the court to make myself stronger.

Hiding all the time is not the solution, the only solution is to make the second prince dare not attack him rashly.

"What are you going to do?" The fifth prince knew that Shen Lanze had always been smart, so he must have figured out a way to deal with it, otherwise he wouldn't suddenly come to the other courtyard to look for him this time.

"I heard that His Highness is worried about going to the South China Sea. I would like to go and investigate for His Highness."

If it is true as rumored, then this trip to the South China Sea is full of dangers, but for the fifth prince to complete the task smoothly, he will not hesitate.

"This is not a child's play..."

Before the fifth prince could finish speaking, Shen Lanze interrupted immediately: "Your Highness, please trust Caomin, Caomin will return safely!"

"Lan Ze, if you want to avoid the emperor, I can give you a place to hide, but going to the South China Sea this time is too dangerous, what if something happens to you? How can I explain to the dead Taifu Shen?"

The Shen family only has this single seedling left, if he is not asked to reverse the case for the Shen family, but he cannot be allowed to lose his life, this is his promise to Taifu Shen.

"Please fulfill the fifth prince." Shen Lanze knelt on one knee and begged.

"You..." The fifth prince opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and finally heaved a heavy sigh.

"Lan Ze, I understand what you're thinking, but this road is extremely dangerous, you have to think twice!" The fifth prince hoped that he would think carefully before deciding whether to go or not.

In public, he is the only hope of the Shen family, and in private, he is willing to let his best friend take risks alone.

Seeing this, Shen Lanze understood what His Highness was thinking, clasped his fists with both hands and said firmly: "I hope His Highness will make it happen!"

Seeing his resolute expression, the fifth prince knew that it was useless to dissuade him, so he agreed.

"It's a long way to go, you need to be more careful in everything."

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will come to see you alive and well!" Shen Lanze cupped his hands in thanks and left.

Seeing the master and servant leaving, the guard hurriedly said: "Master, the man in black is the one who delivered the letter last time, why don't you detain them and interrogate them properly."

The fifth prince looked at him in a daze, shook his head with a sigh, picked up the rocking fan on the table and knocked it on his head, "Whether it was before or now, Shen Lanze will never harm this prince."

"Shen, Mr. Shen?" It was because of this that he recalled the appearance of that person just now, and it seemed that he was really similar to the one from the Shen family.

The fifth prince stopped talking, and returned to the desk case. Since he was the one who built the Anping County Government House, the Fu family must also be his handiwork. It seems that Shen Lanze's methods are more powerful than before. With his help, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

In the early morning, Lu Nanzhi rarely got up early and came to Chunfenglou, wanting to make some new dishes.

After the carriage stopped, she saw a group of guards tightly surrounding the Chunfeng Building. She frowned slightly, stepped down from the carriage, and asked the onlookers, "What happened?"

"Young lady doesn't know something. I heard that the criminal escaped into the Chunfeng Tower, and the second prince came to arrest her personally." The woman beside her told her in a low voice, and told her not to approach her, so as not to cause trouble to her upper body.

Lu Nanzhi's eyes flickered. It seemed that the second prince already knew Shen Lanze's identity, and he deliberately said that there were criminals sneaking in. To put it bluntly, he wanted to catch Shen Lanze.

The Chunfeng Building was heavily guarded, and even a gap could not be inserted, so she was a little anxious.

Thinking of Shen Lanze's safety, he touched the things in his arms, thought for a long time, and walked over with his skirt in hand, but two guards stopped her from the door.

"I am the boss here, and I want to see your second prince."

"Let her in."

The second prince's voice came from the Chunfeng Building, and the guards let her in.
