The heroic scholar and his neighbor, the pretty widow (bushi)

"...I thought you hated me in your heart and were closer to the Zhennan Marquis Mansion."

Lance gained the courage and began to explain.

When Song Ning heard this, he was so angry that he looked up from his arms, rolled his eyes at him, and stepped on him.

"Are you blind or am I stupid?"

The Marquis of Zhennan is clearly a big liar. The Marquis of Zhennan’s mansion doesn’t even give him food, so why would he come here to get close to him?

Lance touched his nose guiltily.

"I am blind and stupid."

He thought...

Lance suddenly thought of something and spoke tentatively.

"Then...Si Kou Hong?"

Song Ning's eyes were dangerous, "What do you want to say?"

Lance felt something was not right, but he still wanted to ask for clarification.

"You are engaged to Si Kouhong, and you and him..."

An inexplicable sense of crisis made him quickly change his words, "You definitely don't like him, but has he ever harassed you?"

The killing intent is lifted.

Song Ning angrily poked his abdominal muscles several times and broke free from his arms.

"No, I haven't even met him, why would I harass him?"

This person definitely didn't mean to ask this, but... humph, never mind, he's sensible.

Haven't they seen it?

Lance was a little surprised.

This world seemed a little different from what he imagined.

In his previous life, Song Ning had actually met Si Kou Hong before he entered the Zhennan Marquis Mansion, and he knew that it was Si Kou Hong who moved into the Zhennan Marquis Mansion.

But now, why does it feel like something has changed?

But let’s not worry about that for now. Lance felt a little excited in his heart.

"That's great."

As long as the little prince didn't like the Son of the World, he would be relieved.

Song Ning misunderstood something, and her cheeks turned red as she said angrily, "What do you mean it's too good to be true? You, you scoundrel, have you been eyeing me for a long time?"

He accused Lance with his eyes, but felt lighthearted in his heart.

That's what he said. This person was indeed coveting him. His feeling was right. Huh.

Lance originally wanted to take it slow, but when he saw Song Ning's bright complexion, he agreed immediately to the words that were on his lips.

"Yes, I fell in love with you the first time I saw you."

Song Ning's eyes widened.

How could this person say such shameless love words?

Now that he had said it, Lance became bolder.

He took a step forward with his long legs, and his broad body wrapped around the thin Song Ning.

"When I first saw the young master, I felt that he should be mine. Do you know what Fuqin calls you in private? I told him that you are his future master, so she is very active every time she comes to deliver food, right?"

What? This person actually said this to Fuqin?

Song Ning was about to faint from shame and anger. He said that Fuqin was obviously not his servant, so why was she so respectful to him and answered all his questions. So it turned out to be, so it turned out to be...

"You ate the soup I made myself. Does that mean you actually like me too..."

Song Ning covered the mouth that could only say shocking words with his hand. His lips trembled as he wanted to stop the man, but the words that came out were...

"But I do have an engagement with the Zhennan Marquisate."

The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing point and Lance stopped talking.

Song Ning also felt like a basin of ice water was poured over him, and he became much more sober.

His face inexplicably became bitter. Yes.

If the Marquis of Zhennan did not lie to him, what if he really was engaged to Si Kou Hong?

A warm big hand suddenly covered him, and Song Ning's body trembled slightly, but he heard a word in his ear that made him tremble all over.

"What if I say that I have a way to make the person you are engaged to become me?"

The next day.

There was a bustle inside and outside the Zhennan Marquis Mansion early in the morning. Just as the sky got light, a carriage stopped in front of the door to visit.

As soon as the servants opened their eyes, they began to busy themselves with receiving guests. The masters of each courtyard also dressed up early, waiting to attend the ceremony in formal attire later.

Si Shuyi also stared with a pair of red eyes while letting the maid comb her hair.

"Miss, why are your eyes so red? Did you not sleep well last night?"

"Why are you talking so much? Go do your thing."

Si Shuyi's red eyes were full of determination, and no one in the room dared to say a word.

Only Si Shuyi stared at the bronze mirror, with a gleam in her eyes.

People were coming and going everywhere, and the Marquis of Zhennan took some time out of his busy schedule to call a servant over for questioning.

"What about him?"

"Who are you looking for, Lord?"

The captured servant was confused. Marquis Zhennan took a look and realized that this was not the servant in his room.

There were many people today and the servants were not enough, so all the servants inside and outside were called.

forecourt.

Marquis Zhennan was taking Si Kouhong around to welcome guests. Si Kouhong was dressed luxuriously and had an elegant demeanor, which attracted praise from the guests. Marquis Zhennan was humble in words but extremely proud in his heart.

However, there were also people with hidden thoughts who suddenly spoke up in the crowd, "The prince is a rare talent, but now he is already a young man, I wonder if he is married?"

Si Kouhong, who was full of vigor and vitality, suddenly looked sullen, and anyone could see that he was unhappy.

Some people were puzzled. It was just a casual question about marriage, so why did Si Kouhong look so unhappy?

Sikou Hong used his narrow eyes to look for the person who was talking, but his words were extremely cold.

"Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words, so naturally the father has the final say."

Although he said this, his resistance was obvious.

The guests who came to congratulate were more cunning than the other, and they all looked at the Marquis of Zhennan. Could there be some secret here?

The Marquis of Zhennan gave him a warning look and laughed.

"What a coincidence! Actually, I invited you all here today, firstly for my son's birthday, and secondly, I have something to announce."

He paused and warned Si Kouhong again.

Although Si Kouhong was extremely dissatisfied, he knew the seriousness of the matter and forced a smile.

"That's right, but everyone is not here yet, please wait a moment."

It would only take a short wait, so the guests were not in a hurry.

Some curious people even started speculating on the spot.

"Since the prince is already a young man, and he has had a concubine for many years, I think he should announce his engagement today. I wonder which daughter the prince has betrothed?"

"I heard that the Zhennan Marquisate and the Xue family are very close?"

"But the Xue family doesn't have a young lady of the right age. Could it be that the one they are betrothed to is a man?"

"Nonsense, how can a man be the principal wife? The woman must have been betrothed to the Zhennan Marquisate to have children. As for the man, if the prince likes him, he can just keep him in the backyard."

"That's true. Although men in our dynasty can get married, they cannot have children. The principal wife must be a woman."

As people were talking about it everywhere, Marquis Zhennan took the opportunity to signal Si Kouhong.

"I have done what I promised you. Now that everyone is talking about him, we should let him out. Your engagement should also be announced to the world. Hong'er, do you have any objections?"

Sikou Hong's sleeves were white from pinching his fingers, but he knew in his heart that this matter would be of great benefit to the Zhennan Marquis Mansion, and would benefit him even more.

"……none."
