Lu Zifeng looked at his father who was in a daze and didn't say anything. He thought about it and just sat there and waited! He didn't know what his old father was thinking.
It took Lu Mingyuan a long while to come back to his senses. Looking at Lu Zifeng sitting there drinking tea calmly, he suddenly became angry: This brat, he didn't even call out to me when he saw me in a trance.
"You were away from home some time ago, and Prince Zhong went to your uncle and mentioned your marriage."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zifeng opened his eyes wide, stood up and looked at Lu Mingyuan.
"Dad, you promised me that my marriage must be approved by me!"
Lu Mingyuan frowned and scolded.
"Can't you wait for your father to finish speaking? You're so surprised."
When Lu Zifeng heard his father getting angry, he sat down again.
"Okay, son, I won't interrupt you. Go ahead!"
Lu Mingyuan then repeated what Lu Minghan said that day and finally asked.
"What do you think? I'll give you two days to think about it. Go ahead!"
Lu Zifeng returned to his yard. To be honest, when he first came to this world, he had been looking forward to finding ten or eight women in the future. However, after being here for a long time, he actually forgot this.
Now that he suddenly mentioned this, he was really a little excited and a little at a loss. In his previous life, he hadn't even started looking for a partner when the end of the world came. He spent the rest of his life killing zombies. Although he would find a woman to vent from time to time, it was still difficult for him to find his lifelong partner.
The reason is, of course, that there is no moral bottom line in that world. People do everything just to survive. Some women would sell everything they can in exchange for food in order to survive. Lu Zifeng doesn't dare to risk his life to find a partner.
Coming to this world, Lu Zifeng wanted to live an ordinary life, but in the end he reached this step by step. He knew that this was one of the bad qualities of men, and it was the desire to be dominated by power that was at work, so he just went with the flow. Maybe this was God's arrangement. Having lived in the end times, he knew that no matter what time it was, he had to have power and status in his hands, otherwise he would only become a chess piece at the mercy of others. Although he could not be the one playing chess, he could be the most useful and indispensable chess piece.
He knew more clearly that in this era, one needed the support of family and power to consolidate one's position, so he went to Luzhou Prefecture to protect his family, and then joined the army for himself and his family. At first, he just wanted to get a small official position and live a free and easy life in Luzhou Prefecture, but a series of things that happened when he came to the capital disrupted his plan. However, the result was very good. Now his family has status and position, and is even a royal relative, which is a situation that some people can never achieve in their lifetime.
Now, Prince Zhong wanted to marry his daughter to him. Situ Yao herself knew her. She was a very beautiful girl, gentle and virtuous. Thinking of this, a delicate face unconsciously appeared in Lu Zifeng's mind, and he felt a little secretly happy at the thought of this.
Lu Zifeng stood up and prepared to go to the study in the front yard to find his father and say that he had agreed.
He hurried all the way to the study in the front yard and saw his father's long-time attendant Lu An sitting at the door. He saw Lu Zifeng coming.
"Greetings, Prince Feng. The Marquis is reading in his study. I will go and report first."
Lu Zifeng nodded, and Lu An knocked on the door gently and walked in.
Now, the two princes of the Lu family call them Prince Feng and Prince Yan in order to distinguish Lu Zifeng and Lu Ziyan.
After Lu An came out, he invited Lu Zifeng into the study.
Lu Mingyuan put down the book in his hand.
"Tell me, what's the urgent matter that made you rush over here?"
After hearing what his father said, Lu Zifeng scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
"Well, father, regarding the marriage, you and uncle can decide. I have set my sights on Prince Zhong's daughter, but let me make it clear first: I will only marry Situ Yao, and no one else."
After listening to Lu Zifeng's conversation, Lu Mingyuan was also stunned. Didn't they agree to let him think about it for two days? But how long had it been?
Looking at his father's puzzled eyes, Lu Zifeng straightened his back and spoke softly.
"Father, I have met the daughters of Prince Zhong twice before. I don't know how many daughters Prince Zhong has. Anyway, I only want to marry the daughter named Situ Yao. There is no need to discuss other things."
After hearing what Lu Zifeng said, Lu Mingyuan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and pointed at Lu Zifeng.
"So you've met Prince Zhong's daughter. I thought I'd give you two days to think about it, but you came here so quickly. Well, I'm going out soon anyway, so I'll go to the Duke's Mansion to talk to your uncle about this."
Lu Zifeng smiled awkwardly, but still said shamelessly.
"I'm sorry to have caused you so much worry. I'll go back first."
At Prince Zhong's mansion, Situ Heng had just returned home, and Prince Zhong had also just returned from the palace.
"Where have you been? Come with me to the study first. I have something to tell you."
Situ Heng remembered Lu Zifeng's words and followed Prince Zhong into the study.
Prince Zhong entered the study and sat down. After the servant had served the tea, he took a sip before speaking.
"I mentioned your sister's marriage to the Emperor a few days ago. The Emperor and I are very optimistic about Duke Dingguo's son, Lu Zifeng. Since I met you today, I wanted to ask for your opinion. Of course, I don't need you to agree to anything. I just want you to express your opinion."
After hearing what Prince Zhong said, Situ Heng stood there in a daze. It took him a long while before he looked at Prince Zhong and said.
"Father, are you really optimistic about that kid Lu Zifeng?"
Prince Zhong frowned and looked at Situ Heng, "You kid still look down on Lu Zifeng? Don't you think about whether he will look down on you, the future brother-in-law? With your stubborn mind, even I sometimes wonder if you are my child?"
The corners of Situ Heng's mouth twitched fiercely, and he looked at Prince Zhong speechlessly.
"Father, I am your son. Is that a good thing to say?"
"Hmph, just because I'm your father, even though I look down on you, I have to admit it. What else can I do? Tell me, why haven't you improved in all these years? Are these social etiquette and rules so rigid? Don't you know how to adapt?"
Prince Zhong's series of questions made Situ Heng begin to doubt his life.
"Tell me, what did you do today?"
Situ Heng then reluctantly recounted everything that happened today at the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion.
Prince Zhong became angrier the more he listened, and looked at Situ Heng with anger.
"Why did I give birth to such a stupid and bizarre thing like you? Tell me what you are doing?"
"Let's not talk about whether Situ Yan's broken leg was caused by that brat Lu Zifeng. You should know that your father is just a Zongzheng who manages the Zongrenfu. The greatest power I have is to manage these royal relatives. How can I have the right to manage these things? Didn't you see that your father didn't say anything? Besides, do you have evidence to prove that it was that brat Lu Zifeng who did it? Who gave you the right to go and accuse him like this? You loser, get out."
