Chapter 109 Lure the snake out of its hole
"It's strange..."
Pu Qiongzhi told Nangong Jiayu about the assassins who were targeting her.
"It's not aimed at you? That's good!" Nangong Hua felt relieved upon hearing that.
Pu Qiongzhi held her forehead helplessly, "Uncle!"
"Okay." Nangong Hua shrugged when he saw that she was unhappy.
He is such a cold-blooded person that he cannot say that he will devote everything to his family without reservation.
What's more, because of this brat's mischievousness, his previous life introduction killed him...
Forget it, ever since his wife came into the house, he has figured out some things.
Anyway, this brat is nice to the lady, at least he is not as naughty as in his previous life!
Perhaps, he is just like Nangong Xue, and with proper guidance he may be able to change.
"Could it be Pei Wanqing?" Nangong Hua speculated.
If she knew what happened in her previous life, she might not be able to say for sure.
However, at that time, she was already confined to the deep palace, so she shouldn't...
Pu Qiongzhi shook her head. "It's not her. Have you forgotten where we came from?"
"Those people don't have any distinctive features?" Nangong Hua tried to awaken Pu Qiongzhi's memory.
Pu Qiongzhi thought about it and shook her head, "It doesn't seem so... Could it be revenge?"
"That's going to be trouble! The Nangong family has a lot of enemies. My grandfather, my father, and my brother are all bad guys!"
Pu Qiongzhi sighed, "We can't just let others do whatever they want!"
"No matter what, since those people didn't succeed, they will definitely try again!"
Nangong Hua looked at her, "You mean... to lure the snake out of its hole?"
"Yes!" Pu Qiongzhi nodded. "You can't be on guard against thieves for a thousand days, just because you've been a thief for a day!"
Nangong Hua thought for a moment and then directly suggested, "We can hold a banquet to create chaos...they will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to attack."
"No, mobilizing too many troops will alert the enemy. I always feel that the other party is scheming and may not fall into our trap." Pu Qiongzhi rejected his proposal.
Nangong Hua thought for a moment, "The results will be announced in two days. Then, we'll try to lure the tiger away from the mountain!"
"Well, we have to wait until they think we have let our guard down, then they will definitely attack again." Pu Qiongzhi still felt that it was not appropriate.
Nangong Hua saw that she was really worried, so he simply said, "Then let him stay in the mansion to accompany his father-in-law for the next few days?"
"I don't know what the situation is like in Zhai Lou." Pu Qiongzhi said as she was about to get up and go check.
Nangong Hua couldn't help but reach out and pull her sleeve, "Madam, please have your meal first. You've been exhausted after such a long day."
"Grandma Qian made a delicious mushroom soup for Madam." He finished speaking, and before Pu Qiongzhi could speak, he added, "Zhai Lou is fine."
"Doctor Jin prescribed medicine for him, and Chunjing is brewing it now. Madam, please take care of yourself first."
After hearing what he said, Pu Qiongzhi sat back down.
"Brother Yu hasn't eaten yet. Is his dinner ready? How about asking him to come along?"
Nangong Hua was somewhat helpless, "He's eating right now! Madam, please enjoy it quickly!"
"I didn't expect that Madam actually likes children so much?"
He suddenly thought of this, and his eyes fell on Pu Qiongzhi's lower abdomen.
If they could have a child, would it be different...
Pu Qiongzhi drank a small bowl of soup to warm her stomach, then said without thinking, "No."
"Brother Yu isn't a child anymore, he's old enough to take the imperial examinations! Such a well-behaved and sensible child is hard to come by!"
"If it was someone naughty or unfilial, it would be a real headache!"
When Nangong Hua heard her say this, he instantly lost his temper.
Yes, madam, you don’t have the time for that!
In the previous life, the Madam and the Ninth Prince had no children for so many years...
He was still too impatient.
"Uncle, Master Pu is looking for you." Qing Xu poked his head in.
Nangong Hua glanced at Pu Qiongzhi, who was concentrating on eating, and said, "Madam, I'll go check on her first."
"Yeah." Pu Qiongzhi chewed the food and nodded.
Nangong Hua went out and hurried to Pu Rongda's residence.
However, he was stopped by Qing Xu on the way.
"?" He turned around with some confusion, but saw that his expression was evasive.
"You didn't trick me into coming out, did you?" he asked.
Qing Xu's face darkened. "Uncle Yang said, 'Master, you have to hurry up.' That Zhai Lou is threatening us with ill intentions!"
"That's my wife! Even if he wants to, he won't succeed!" Nangong Hua snorted coldly.
Qing Xu looked at his master helplessly, and said angrily, "Can't you take the initiative?"
"When the enemy comes, we will fight them with our generals; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. That's for those men who covet my lady!"
"Madam doesn't care about you, you will be in danger sooner or later!"
Nangong Hua looked at him in surprise, "Qing Xu, how did you suddenly come to your senses?"
"..." Qing Xu didn't expect that he was still worried about this at this time.
"My Lord, I'm not stupid." He retorted with a pout.
Nangong Hua's mouth twitched, and scenes of him being dull and unworldly emerged in his mind.
"Then is there any way you can help me?" He asked doubtfully.
After asking, he felt that he was really stupid. He actually believed that Qing Xu could provide him with some reliable method!
"Master, I came to you because I have something to tell you..." Qing Xu said without hesitation, without any shyness, "I want to get married!"
When Nangong Hua heard his request, he felt like he was struck by lightning.
"You...this...I..." He was a little incoherent, and then said helplessly, "Who do you like?"
"Tell me first, I'll find a way for you. At least I can give you a good betrothal gift and see if the girl will like you!"
"No need! I've already made my choice! It's Zidai from our house." Qingxu declined his kindness, "My Lord, you only need to prepare some money for the wedding banquet!"
Nangong Hua was really shocked this time. "How could someone be so blind?"
In his impression, Qing Xu was a guy who was not good at speaking and even had no tact.
Sometimes, when he listened to what Qingxu said, he wanted to kick him a few times... How could a guy like this make a girl happy?
"I will talk less and do more!" Qing Xu folded his arms across his chest and told him the story of himself and Zidai.
Qing Xu said, "Zidai is the most beautiful girl in our family! This is recognized by everyone!"
"You mean you can challenge all the competitors and finally win the heart of the beauty?" Nangong Hua was really shocked at this moment.
Qing Xu nodded, "There are three guards, two servants, and two followers beside the lady in our mansion, and they all like Zidai!"
"???" Nangong Hua was stunned. "Quick, quick, let's go to the study and tell me in detail!"
Qingxu also meant this, "Uncle, remember to prepare the wedding wine!"
"I've prepared everything you need for your wedding this morning!" Nangong Hua put his arm around his shoulders.
