Xu Chu had nothing to do at home again, so he thought about sneaking out and galloping on the grassland, but he was rejected by Lu Tenglong every time.
A month later, it was already early summer, but the capital seemed to have turned into a furnace, just like the heat of midsummer.
Xu Chu was sitting under a sycamore tree, enjoying the cool breeze and reading a book leisurely.
At this time, Xiao Bing came hurriedly to report, "Princess, there is something important."
Xu Chu glanced at Huang Lu's flustered Xiao Bing calmly, opened his mouth lazily, and asked, "What's the big deal?"
"Someone came to propose marriage!"
When Xu Chu heard this, he almost fell off the swing.
She thought they would get married next year and wouldn't get engaged so early.
But I never thought that he would come to propose marriage this year.
But she was curious why Nalan Rongruo, who had always been in love with Hui'er, would agree?
"Gege, why are you frightened?"
Xu Chu took a deep breath, forced a grin, and asked, "Who's coming to propose marriage?"
"You'll never guess."
Xu Chu naturally knew, but pretended to guess, "Oh, the capital is so big, and there are so many nobles, it's really hard to guess."
"Master Nalan."
Xu Chu widened his eyes in mock shock, "Are you talking about Nalan Rongruo?"
"That's right!" Xiaobing replied.
"Gege, I didn't expect that you would finally get what you wanted."
Xu Chu could only grin awkwardly. This was not what he wanted at all!
This is how the gears of fate turn!
What is coming will eventually come!
Even if she wanted to dodge, she couldn't.
Xiao Qing also saw that Xu Chu's face didn't show any joy at all, so she asked, "Gege, why are you not happy at all?"
"Happy...happy."
Xiao Qing looked at Xu Chu's smiling expression, which was uglier than crying, and said, "Princess, don't be affected by the rumors. After all, there is no conclusion yet on whether Nalan Company has a sweetheart or not."
"Besides, being able to marry Master Nalan is a great blessing."
"Lord Nalan is a favorite of the Emperor. Even though his mother is from the Aisin-Gioro clan, I heard she has a gentle personality and a very good temper. Even when people do something wrong, she never scolds them. Instead, she gently tells them not to make the same mistake next time."
Xu Chu knew that Nalan Rongruo was a man of great literary talent and had long been famous. He was also the best son-in-law in the eyes of all the Manchu nobles.
However, Nalan Mingzhu did not seek princesses from various banners of the Qing Dynasty like Nalan Rongruo, nor did he choose among the Mongolians. Instead, he set his eyes on Lu.
She was a little confused. Was it just because of her father, Lu Xingzu?
After all, the Lu family's family background is not worthy of the Nalan family.
"Yeah, I understand."
Seeing Xu Chu's tone was still cold, Xiao Bing was surprised. "Princess, do you really not like Master Nalan anymore?"
“It doesn’t matter whether you like it or not.”
Xiaoqing and Xiaobing exchanged glances and felt a little confused.
"Princess, if you don't like it, just let the young master refuse it."
Xu Chu knew that this was the course of history, and even if they were rejected, they would still get married.
Anyway, nothing can be changed. The only thing that can be changed is her mood.
Galloping across the grassland is her dream, so she really wants to go again.
"I'll continue reading. By the way, if my brother comes back, please ask her to come over."
She's almost suffocated!
She wanted to go and see if the osmanthus wine was still there.
After Xu Chu finished explaining, he went to take a lunch break.
