Chapter 366: Disobeying the Order is Not an Option
Li Hongting had never heard such bold remarks. Whether it was in the Dayuan Kingdom or other countries he knew, any man with a little ability would have three wives and four concubines.
He stared at the woman in front of him, who was emitting a dazzling light.
Is she really from this mortal world?
Why is she so different?
What she knew, what she created, and even her ideas were so bold...
At this moment, Li Hongting only had Lu Shian in his eyes. He could not see the people passing by him, nor could he feel the cold air.
He really wanted to grab Lu Shian and ask her, who are you and why are you so different.
But he held back. What he had to do now was to keep her by his side, and she had no choice but to stay by his side.
Li Hongting spoke slowly: "Disobeying the order will lead to the punishment of all nine clans. Shi'an, believe me, I will treat you well. I will do my best to satisfy you. For the sake of your family, don't make unnecessary resistance. That will only hurt you and your family."
"Is there no room for maneuver?"
Lu Shian refused to give up.
Li Hongting lowered his eyes: "Father has just issued an imperial decree, and you have already received it. This matter has been settled."
After hearing these words, the life force of Lu Shian, who was radiating light, gradually left her body.
Sure enough, her struggle was in vain.
"I will send you back."
Li Hongting wanted to help Lu Shian, but Lu Shian took a step back and distanced himself from Li Hongting.
"I dare not trouble you, Your Highness. I don't want to go back now."
"Then I'll walk with you."
"No need, I'll just go to the noodle shop in front." Lu Shian said casually.
Li Hongting knew the noodle shop, but when he saw Lu Shian walking forward, he followed him. Lu Shian didn't even turn his head and said, "Don't follow me."
Li Hongting stopped.
He just watched Lu Shian walk towards the noodle shop step by step.
The noodle shop was also opened. Yinzhu was extremely happy at this time. The imperial edict had been posted early in the morning.
She never thought that Lu Shi'an would become the prince's concubine. She was extremely happy when she thought about it. The prince was willing to help her at the beginning because of Lu Shi'an's pleading. I guess the prince had already fallen in love with Lu Shi'an at that time.
Seeing her so happy, Liu Sheng also laughed: "Look how happy you are. If someone didn't know, they would think you were going to be a concubine."
Yinzhu glared at him and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm happy for Shi'an. Shi'an is really amazing. When the prince ascends the throne, she will be the queen of the palace. It won't be so easy to see her then."
At this point, she felt a little disappointed, but soon became happy again.
"Do you think I should also bow when I see her now?"
As she said this, she bowed in a very formal manner. After all, she had been to the Second Prince's Mansion, so she knew how to perform a bow.
After the salute, she covered her mouth and laughed again.
Zhang Heizi came out from behind, yawning and looking sleepy, with eye boogers on his eyes.
"I'm starving. Give me something to eat."
The cheerful Yinzhu saw Zhang Heizi, and her good mood disappeared immediately. She said coldly: "Get whatever you want to eat."
Zhang Heizi wanted to get angry, but Liu Sheng strode over to him. Zhang Heizi immediately became obedient and walked away muttering.
"Humph, I'm your father. If you don't obey me, be careful of being struck by lightning."
Yinzhu was not polite and directly retorted: "Then let the heavens strike me to death with thunder and let me become a fierce ghost and take you away with me."
"Bah, bah, bah, you damn girl, what nonsense are you talking about on New Year's Day? If you miss, die by yourself, don't drag me down with you."
Liu simply pulled Yinzhu away and said, "Zhang Heizi is a bastard, a hopeless bastard."
He had promised Yinzhu to quit drinking, but he started drinking again within three days. Not only that, he also developed a gambling habit.
Yinzhu had quarreled with him several times over this matter. Last time a few years ago, Yinzhu made it clear that if Zhang Heizi continued to gamble, he would be sent away and he would never be soft-hearted.
Zhang Heizi agreed readily, but everyone knew that he was just being perfunctory.
Zhang Heizi went to the kitchen and took out the big bones and chicken from the pot, then squatted aside and started to devour them.
When Lu Shian walked in, there were not many people in front of the noodle shop. It was just after the New Year and every household had food to eat, so fewer people came out to eat noodles.
"Silver beads?"
"Silver beads."
Lu Shian called out twice and Yinzhu ran over from the backyard.
"Shian..."
She hugged Shi'an happily and said, "I missed you so much. I wanted to visit you, but I was afraid of causing trouble for you, so I held back."
Years ago, she went to Lu's house. When she got there, Shitou told her that her godmother and Shi'an had gone to the Marquis's Mansion, so she put her things down and came back.
She knew that it was not easy for her godmother and Shi'an in the Marquis' Mansion, and since she had no power or influence and could not help, she should not cause trouble.
"I miss you too. Shitou has sent over all the things you prepared. Thank you, Yinzhu."
"Why are you thanking me? We two are not good at thanking each other."
"Yeah." Lu Shian nodded.
Yinzhu pulled her to sit down and asked excitedly: "Tell me how you feel about becoming a concubine soon."
Lu Shian wanted to laugh but couldn't. Seeing that she was unhappy, Yinzhu suddenly became nervous!
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy in the Marquis' Mansion?"
"If you are unhappy, just move out. Anyway, you will soon become the prince's concubine, and the Marquis's Mansion will not dare to bully you and your mother!"
"The people in the Marquis' Mansion didn't bully me. I just... forget it. There's no point in saying this."
"Okay, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it. Let's talk about something happy!"
Yinzhu went to pull Lu Shian's hand and found that her hand was cold: "Oh, why are your hands so cold? Wait for me to make you a bowl of noodles and a big chicken drumstick!"
Lu Shian had been walking for so long and was already hungry, but he had no appetite now!
"No, just sit down and chat with me for a while!"
"How can that be possible? You will be the Crown Prince's concubine in the future. I dare not neglect you!"
Zhang Heizi walked out of the kitchen with a big bone in his hand!
He squinted his eyes and looked at the two of them: "Crazy? Or hysterical? If she, Ye Shian, could marry the prince, I would be the emperor!"
Zhang Heizi still doesn’t know that Ye Shi’an is Lu Shi’an from the Marquis’ Mansion, so naturally he doesn’t know that Ye Zhantao is Lu Jingxun!
Yinzhu didn't know that Zhang Heizi was still in the kitchen, and was startled when she saw him suddenly appear!
"Why are you still here?"
"Nonsense, I'm not here, where am I? Have you forgotten that you didn't let me out!"
Yinzhu didn't want to cause trouble for Lu Shian, so she never took the initiative to mention Lu Shian's family affairs in front of Zhang Heizi!
"Where did you get the big bone? Was it from the pot..."
As she said that, she quickly walked over to the big pot, and sure enough, there was no big bone left in it!
"Zhang Heizi, how can you eat the big bones in the pot!"
"What are you yelling about? I'm your father, what's wrong with me eating a bone?"
