Lu Zhenzhi's eyes were cold and he said calmly, "Then stand."
Fu Tong'er heard Jiu Ye's voice and went to the direction of the voice, not knowing that Jiu Ye was also looking at her at this time.
Concubine Shu asked, "Is this the girl who won the flower-dipping poetry competition yesterday?"
Lord Ke said, "Yes, Madam Dowager."
"Why two people?"
Lord Ke: "Replying to the Concubine, it's a draw."
Concubine Shu twirled the string and said slowly, "Of course there will be a winner. Lord Ke, who is more outstanding?"
Lord Ke thought for a moment and said, "To the Concubine Dowager, Miss Qiu Tong is the better choice. However, Lord Guo said that he admires the daughter of the Jian family more. On balance, let's make it a tie."
Concubine Shu said, "Which of you two is Qiu Tong? Look up and I'll take a look."
Fu Tong'er knew that the voice belonged to Master Jiu's mother, and her palms were sweating with nervousness. However, she had no idea what this Concubine Shu looked like.
Then he slowly raised his head.
Concubine Shu said, "Well, this look is good, but it's a pity that he can't see. How old is he?"
Fu Tong'er said: "My Lady, I am eighteen years old."
"Hmm. Eighteen, where is your husband's family from?"
Fu Tong'er blushed slightly and said, "My Lady Princess, I am still unmarried."
She didn't know what Jiu Ye was feeling at the moment, she only knew that she was really nervous.
"You're still unmarried," Concubine Shu pondered. "Women over fourteen or fifteen are expected to marry. You're not bad looking, so why hasn't anyone proposed to you?"
Fu Tong'er raised her head slightly and said, "Yes, Concubine Tai, he said that he will marry me after he finishes his business."
Lu Zhenzhi's hand holding the teacup froze for a moment, but he continued to sip tea and stroke the lid of the cup as if nothing had happened.
Concubine Shu hummed and said, "Law and discipline."
Lu Zhenzhi leaned slightly sideways and lowered his head: "Yes."
"You're getting married soon," Concubine Shu pulled Mu Yingge over, "Ge'er is a good girl, you must treat her well. A harmonious family brings prosperity."
Fu Tong'er's heart suddenly ached, and she frowned in pain. She couldn't help but touch her chest and bent down...
General You Yi hurriedly supported her body and half-held her in his arms: "Tongtong, are you feeling unwell?"
Deputy General Xiao was terrified and looked at Jiu Ye, only to see that he was still as calm as water, except that the tea in his hand was suspended in mid-air.
This general is really brave!
Fu Tong'er waved her hands, covered her heart, and slowly stood up.
Only then did You Yi put his hand down.
"I'm fine, don't worry."
She said this to Lu Zhenzhi, and her face was facing him. Although she couldn't see it, she could feel it.
Lu Zhenzhi put down the teacup and saw that she was facing him. He guessed that she was talking to him.
However, Fu Tong'er thought about it and felt it was not worth it, so she turned to You Yi on her right and said, "I'm fine, big brother, don't worry about me."
As he spoke, he put his hand on You Yi's arm.
Lu Zhenzhi snorted coldly. It turned out that she was telling General You not to worry.
Looking at Fu Tong'er's little hand on You Yi's arm, Lu Zhenzhi's eyes gradually deepened.
"Since," Lu Zhenzhi said, silence fell upon him, "these two girls are here to tour the Marquis' Mansion, Lord Ke should take them there, and go now. Let's finish the tour as soon as possible and let them leave as soon as possible."
"Yes, Master Jiu!"
Lord Ke took Fu Tong'er and others away and visited several courtyards and gardens.
Jian Weiying supported Fu Tong'er and said, "Wutong, you actually have palpitations! No wonder your brother is so worried about you! This problem really requires someone to follow you everywhere. Were you scared just now? No wonder, one is the Duke of Dingnan and the other is the Regent of Dayan, Prince Chun. It would be strange if they weren't nervous."
"Where's my brother?" Fu Tong'er pulled out her arm that was being held by another maid, and General Yi quickly came over and stretched out his arm for her to hold.
"I'm here." General You Yi held her arm with his backhand.
Lord Ke walked ahead, going through all six courtyards of the Dingnan Marquis's mansion. Finally, he stopped at a side door and said, "Wait a moment."
Jian Weiying let go of Fu Tong'er and sat down on a swing by the side door. She said, "There are so many side halls and rooms in the Dingnan Marquis Mansion, and they are all heavily armed. If anyone tries to break in, they will be killed and their bodies will never be found."
General You Yi supported Fu Tong'er and leaned over slightly and said, "Tongtong, there's a swing in front. If you want to go, I'll push you."
