Chapter 337 The Crown Prince's Position Belongs to Him

"Employee benefits?" It was the first time that Zhu Xinhui heard this term and he found it somewhat new.

But when he thought about it carefully, he understood what it meant.

"Thank you, Princess." He bowed to Lu Li sincerely.

"You're welcome. Once we confirm the auspicious time tomorrow, we'll accompany you to propose marriage." Lu Li chuckled, left the wheelchair behind, and went back with Meng Shanchuan to report.

Seeing that there was no one following them, Qu Fufeng was a little confused.

I hope you won’t lose both your wife and your troops.

The person hasn’t been asked to come out yet, and the wheelchair is still gone?

"Where are the others?"

When Lu Yanshi saw that there were only the two of them, he felt a little confused.

"It's not convenient today. He will come tomorrow. He is getting married tomorrow." When Lu Li saw his father, he couldn't shut his mouth at all. He babble about what had just happened.

Meng Shanchuan listened with a look of despair on the side.

He felt heartbroken every time he heard it.

Others only need a few words to marry a wife, but he has made no progress at all.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Jin Yulu.

I found that she was looking at me too.

Meng Shanchuan immediately perked up, his heart burning with excitement.

Jin Yulu didn't expect his gaze to be so burning, and immediately turned her head away.

She was not a fool. Meng Shanchuan had been trying to please her during this period, and she could sense that he might have some feelings for her.

But she didn't dare to think further.

After all, there was a huge gap between her family background and that of the Meng family.

Even if Meng Shanchuan likes her, can the Meng family really accept her without any reservations?

Moreover, she was once forced to marry Shen Si. Although she escaped when she was about to get on the bridal sedan, in the eyes of others, she was a married woman.

How could she be worthy of Meng Shanchuan?

So she pretended she knew nothing.

Seeing that she avoided his gaze, Meng Shanchuan became deflated again.

How can he win Miss Jin's heart?

…

Lu Yanshi learned from Lu Li what happened today and praised her for doing a good job.

"Xiaojiu did a great job. If you want someone to be truly willing to work for you, you can't just make empty promises."

"Zhu Xinhui has no parents and his family is poor. He certainly doesn't have enough money for the betrothal gift. At this critical moment, you have taken the initiative to offer to help him. It is a timely help. He will definitely be grateful to you."

The more Lu Yanshi looked at Lu Li, the more satisfied he became.

It would be great if Xiaojiu was a prince, then the position of crown prince would belong to him.

With such a powerful prince around, Great Xia will prosper for thousands of years without any worries.

"Hehe, then let's go together to watch Zhu Xinhui's engagement ceremony tomorrow." Lu Li pulled his hand and acted coquettishly.

"I'm going too." Lu Xuan ran over to join in the fun.

"Okay, okay, let's go." Lu Li agreed on his own without Lu Yanshi's consent.

It would be better to make the betrothal ceremony more lively.

…

Tao Tao returned home with a red face.

"Sister, why is your face so red? Are you sick?" Tao Tao's younger brother Tao Guo looked at her with confusion.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm not sick." Tao Tao quickly covered her face with her hands.

"Xin Hui, what happened to that kid? Who came to see him? Is he injured?" Uncle Tao heard his daughter's voice and quickly put down his hatchet and came out to inquire.

"Brother Zhu is okay. Those people are here to find him to be an official. He is going to the capital to be an official soon." When mentioning this, Tao Tao couldn't stop smiling.

That’s great. She will see who will dare to say that Brother Zhu is a useless cripple in the future.

"Let him go to Beijing to be an official? He couldn't be a liar, right?" Aunt Tao, who had just finished cooking, ran out in a hurry when she heard this.

"Yeah, don't be fooled." Uncle Tao was very worried.

"Let's eat first. After dinner, I'll go to his house to ask about it. Brother Zhu and his wife only have this one child. We can't let anything happen to him."

"No... no need. He will come to our house in person tomorrow." Tao Tao said this, and the blush on her face spread from her cheeks.

The whole neck turned red.

"He walks so hard, why did he come to our house?" Uncle Tao looked puzzled.

"If there's anything, we can just go to his house and talk."

Tao Tao stamped her feet and said, "We can't go to his house for this matter."

"Why?" Uncle Tao didn't react yet.

"He's here to propose marriage!" After saying this, Tao Tao covered her face and rushed back to her room.

Uncle Tao and Aunt Tao looked at each other and proposed marriage?

They must have heard it right.

I wonder what Zhu Xin will bring to propose marriage.

The money that the Zhu couple left for him had long been spent.

"Tao Tao, don't be confused. We can be nice to him, but we can't sacrifice your entire life's happiness for him." Aunt Tao hurried into the house and tried to persuade her daughter.

"Silly girl, you can't just look at his good looks. He is good-looking, but he can't walk. If you have children in the future, how will he take care of you? You will have to take care of him instead."

"This is no joke. If you marry her, you will live a hard life for the rest of your life."

Aunt Tao was extremely anxious.

She sympathized with Zhu Xinhui, but that didn't mean she had to involve her daughter.

"Her mother, don't be anxious. Didn't Tao Tao just say that Xin Hui's child is going to Beijing to become a high-ranking official. If he marries our Tao Tao, she will be an official's wife in the future." Uncle Tao held back his excited wife.

"How could the court allow a lame man to be an official?" Aunt Tao didn't believe that such a big pie would fall from the sky.

"The court now wants young girls to become officials. Brother Zhu has the ability to attract the nobles in the palace, so why can't he become an official?" Tao Tao in the room heard what her mother said and couldn't help but come out to defend Zhu Xin.

"Someone in the palace? What did he do to make the people in the palace treat him differently?" Aunt Tao still didn't believe it.

How could someone from the palace suddenly come to their small village?

Tao Tao was confused by the question.

Well, she didn't know either.

The adult and the little girl appeared suddenly. They only told her that they were going to take Zhu Xin back to the capital to be an official and treat his leg, but they didn't say why.

"Anyway, Brother Zhu is different from others. He must have his strengths to impress the nobles in the palace. Dad and Mom, you have to believe in him!" Although she didn't know why Zhu Xinhui was chosen, Tao Tao still firmly defended him.

"Let's see what happens tomorrow," Uncle Tao sighed sourly.

"Girls can't be kept at home when they grow up."

Tao Tao felt embarrassed again after hearing her father's teasing.

But in order to wish Xin Hui a happy return, she still mustered up the courage to ask her parents.

"Dad, Mom, don't make things difficult for Brother Zhu tomorrow. He is here to ask for marriage with all his heart."

"Alright, alright, eat your meal quickly and we'll talk about tomorrow's issues tomorrow." Uncle Tao angrily pushed his daughter away.

The next day, two exquisite carriages drove into Changliu Village.
