Chapter 490: Good Luck in a Fall (2)
The girl in pink never thought that King Zhuo would actually fall for it?
A smile of triumph flashed in his eyes, and his mind began to imagine a future in which he and Princess Hezhuo would compete for beauty.
But before the smile reached her eyes, Prince Zhuo leaned over slightly, plucked the small red flower growing on her head, held it in front of his daughter and said softly, "Look! Here is Tiantian's favorite little red flower!" After saying that, he continued to walk forward, as if ignoring the person on the ground.
"Puchi!" A gloating laugh was heard in the garden.
The pink-dressed girl was stunned. This was different from what she had imagined. But seeing that the father and daughter were about to walk away, she gritted her teeth, stood up and followed them, "Prince Zhuo, please stay."
Lu Yingxing turned around and gave the girl a strange look, "What's the matter?"
Being looked at by his frank eyes and seeing the little baby with clear eyes in his arms, Zhao Ru felt inexplicably embarrassed. She stood there with a pale face, not knowing what to do.
"Ruer!!"
Suddenly, a plump woman rushed over, grabbed the girl's bloody hands and asked, "What are you and the prince doing here? And why did an innocent girl like you bleed so much?" Her voice was so loud that it was estimated that the whole garden could hear it.
Cang Yu behind him frowned slightly, wondering if this woman would speak. "How dare you! Are you able to bear the charge of slandering the Emperor?"
When the woman heard this, she immediately pulled her daughter to her knees and started crying, "I don't dare, I don't dare, wuwuwuwu..."
The girl she was holding had a pitiful look on her face. Her tears were like pear blossoms in the rain, and her hands were covered in blood. She looked like she had been badly bullied.
The handkerchiefs in the hands of the ladies around were almost crumpled to pieces, but they were all waiting, waiting to see how Prince Zhuo would handle the matter... If she succeeded, it would be like opening a straight road.
Seeing his daughter in his arms looking at the mother and daughter with sparkling eyes, Lu Yingxing decided not to leave and simply let his daughter see enough.
After the two of them cried enough, the lady spoke awkwardly, "Your Highness, I am the wife of Zhao, the governor of Yuncheng. I came to Zhuocheng with my husband's family to congratulate General Gu. I was just frightened when I saw my daughter covered in blood. For an unmarried girl to follow Your Highness like this, this..."
"Ah!" A sweet and impatient cry sounded, interrupting Mrs. Zhao's dangerous speech.
Seeing that her father was standing still, the sweet little princess was dissatisfied, and her chubby little hand kept pointing towards the door.
Lu Yingxing looked in the direction of her finger, revealed an understanding look, weighed Tiantian, and said lovingly, "Yes, yes, let's go now, you clever girl."
He glanced at the woman and said calmly, "You are from the Zhao family, the governor of Yuncheng? I know... everyone get up." After that, he looked at Zhao Ru again, said nothing, and walked away.
Mrs. Zhao was delighted. Did she agree to it?
As expected, there is no need to be too straightforward with smart people. When have you ever seen a prince willing to let other women follow him? She excitedly pushed her daughter in the direction where Prince Zhuo left, "Yes, yes, Ru'er, you will serve the prince well in the future..."
"Mother..." Zhao Ru responded shyly in a low voice.
The Cang Yu people in front of him choked again. Is this a forced sale? Do they really think that others can't see through their tricks? Can't they hear the hidden meaning of that woman? They just want to enter the palace by just throwing it casually? What are they thinking?
"Ma'am...does it look good?"
Lu Yingxing had a clear goal. He walked straight to the corner behind the entrance to the garden and showed a helpless expression to the two people, one adult and one child, who were hiding there to watch the show.
Shen Yu: “…” You have a third eye, right?
She smiled and raised her son's chubby hand and waved, "Hello, Daddy, you're awesome, you win hide-and-seek!"
Of course, Lu Yingxing would not expose her for wanting to see him perform, but every time he saw her and his daughter's foxy eyes, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up...
He admitted that he preferred his daughter more. Her appearance and expressions were like a copy and paste of his wife. It was as if he could see the little fox Shen he once was. The time he missed in his wife's childhood was made up by his daughter.
When the babies in the two people's arms saw each other, they excitedly communicated in baby language that no one else could understand, and chatted endlessly.
The picture of a family of four standing together is like a pleasing painting, so beautiful that people can't bear to disturb them.
But there are always some flies in the world who don't understand art, "Come and meet Princess Zhuo, you will serve the prince together from now on, you have to know what the princess says?"
Her action attracted the attention of the family of four. Shen Yu stretched out his fingers for his daughter to play with, and asked knowingly, "Madam... what are you doing?"
She gritted her teeth and pulled her daughter to kneel down again, "Greetings, Princess!" Anyway, the prince had already agreed in public. If they went back on their word, she would bang her head against the pillar and fight for a future for her daughter!
Facing Shen Yu's teasing eyes, Mrs. Zhao gritted her teeth and continued, forcing herself to think about the days to come when she would be proud and proud...
"My daughter did this in broad daylight with Prince Zhuo... Although it was an accident, my daughter is still unmarried and her reputation is ruined. The prince has already agreed to take my daughter in. I beg the princess to be merciful and treat her like a kitten or puppy after she gets married. She will definitely not compete with the princess for favor... Ru'er, come and meet the princess."
Oh? Ruer? Heh...
Shen Yu squinted at Lu Yingxing, his eyes seemed to be saying: You actually like this one?
Not seeing the jealous look on Madam’s face as he had imagined, Lu Yingxing felt a little depressed, with an aggrieved expression on his face, “Madam…” help me.
Shen Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This wasn't the first time this happened. He just dismissed it casually. Now seeing him putting on such a defiled sacred look, he couldn't help but laugh.
What can I do with my cheap husband? I just spoil him!
Besides, these two mother and daughter actually made trouble at An An's wedding banquet. Isn't this a provocation? Right? Then I don't have to be polite.
"Oh?" She asked in confusion, "My Lord, is there such a thing?"
The crowd who were enjoying the show immediately turned their attention to King Zhuo, and the kneeling Zhao Ru's eyes also showed a bit of anticipation and uneasiness.
She is already seventeen this year. She was very picky about the suitors before and has not yet gotten engaged. This has led to an extremely awkward situation now. The man who is worthy of her is already taken, and those who are older than her and still unengaged are all ugly...
So Daddy said that she must take down King Zhuo. This is the best place for her to go. She can also be proud of herself in front of those people in Yuncheng who laugh at her behind her back! !
She had heard of Zhuo Cheng, the most handsome man in Luo City before, but as the daughter of the prefect, what handsome men had she not seen?
But when I think back to the day I first arrived in Zhuo City, I caught a glimpse of him at the city gate… Zhuo Wang’s elegant appearance and stern expression made me fall in love with him at first sight. From then on, that figure on horseback has been engraved in my mind and cannot be erased.
Especially after hearing that he was actually very dissatisfied with Princess Zhuo's tyranny, he wanted to save him from the fire...
