Chapter 94

  When Zhan Zhao heard that Lu Xiaofeng was almost abducted by Wen Li, a fire suddenly rose in his heart, and he involuntarily clenched the Longquan sword in his hand tightly.

  Actually set his mind on Xiaofeng, unforgivable!

  But this matter did not end there.

  The old lady actually came in person to visit and asked Mr. Bao about Lu Xiaofeng's family background information.

  The meaning revealed is clear and straightforward.

  Bao Zheng and Gong Sun Ce exchanged a glance, then looked at Zhan Zhao together. Only then did Bao Zheng say to Madame Wen: "The matter you asked about is not convenient for this official to speak of. Why not ask Miss Lu herself?"

  "Ask her directly?"

  Bao Zheng nodded, "Yes, this girl's marriage is her own decision."

  "Don't bother, I'm already here."

  Everyone turned their heads and saw Lu Xiaofeng leading Yiniang walking in from outside.

  "Hello, Mrs. Wen."

  Mrs. Wen saw Lu Xiaofeng for the first time and was very pleased with her at first sight, no wonder she was the one that Si'er had set his heart on, indeed a very pretty girl.

  "Alright, I intend to propose a marriage between our young one and your daughter, but I don't know if your daughter..."

  Lu Xiaofeng bowed to Madame Wen, then said with a hint of apology: "I'm not hiding it from you, madam, but I've already been betrothed to another family. As for my mistaken love for Young Master Wen, all I can say is sorry."

  "I don't know about Miss's husband's family..." Old Lady Wen still had some lingering regrets.

  Lu Xiaofeng turned his head and smiled at Zhan Zhao, saying calmly: "The young woman's fiancé is indeed Zhan Zhao."

  The old lady also went to see Zhan Zhao, still with some doubts, "Why didn't Mr. Zhan say that just now?"

  Lu Xiaofeng said without hesitation, "Because he always listens to me, I don't let him speak and he dares not speak. However, the old lady's proposal is a marriage matter, so my relationship with him cannot be left unsaid."

  Everyone in the hall couldn't help but secretly laugh at Xinghua Fu, and Zhan Huwei's reputation as a coward was likely to spread because of this.

  Zhan Zhao just smiled and didn't say anything.

  "The two of them are quite a match." Now, all Old Lady Wen could say was this one sentence.

  "You're overpraising me." Little Phoenix Maiden said with modesty.

  "That's all, I'll take my leave now."

  Bao Zheng escorts the elderly lady.

  "It's all right."

  After seeing off Old Lady Wen, Zhan Zhao returned and couldn't help but ask Lu Xiao Feng with some confusion, "How did it end up like this?"

  Lu Xiaofeng raised an eyebrow and snorted, saying: "This is to inform others that this young lady is not for sale, so don't bother trying your luck. By the way, I'll also give you a label, lest you attract some peach blossoms, apricot blossoms, or welcome spring flowers again."

  Gongsun Ce listened on one side and smiled: "Miss, aren't you afraid of being questioned by Tai Shifu?"

  "This young lady has her own clever plan."

  Even Bao Zheng couldn't help but laugh, at this time Lu Xiaofeng's slightly arrogant tone made him look more like a naive and innocent girl, once he became serious and solemn his appearance was completely different.

  There was nothing else, so naturally the people of Kaifeng Prefecture would not be so impolite, and they all dispersed.

  Zhan Zhao followed Lu Xiaofeng to her residence.

  "Can you really handle Tai Shifu?"

  "Wait, little cat, I've thought it through." Lu Xiaofeng suddenly stopped in his tracks.

  "What?" Zhan Zhao was somewhat perplexed.

  "I've decided to marry you in Huzhou, as the sworn sister of the Five Rats of Empty Island. We'll ask Bao Da to be our matchmaker and Gong Sun to be our witness. What do you say?"

  Today, the old lady's move gave her a wake-up call. She has always been unclear about her status as a concubine, which would make it difficult for Xiao Mao to settle down and sometimes even put him in an awkward position.

  Since it's already been decided that I'll end up marrying Zhan Xiaomao sooner or later, then whether it's early or late is all the same, so I might as well get married now.

  "Are you sure?"

  "Of course."

  The next moment, Zhan Zhao couldn't hide the joy on his face and hugged her tightly, "Xiao Feng!"

  "You go back and tell Bao Daren and the others, I'm still a bit embarrassed to say it to their faces."

  "Okay, I'll go tell him."

  "I'll go back first."

  "Good." Zhan Zhao let go of her and hastily went to find Lord Bao.

  "Miss... is it really okay for you to be like this? What if Master Ta and the madam find out?"

  Lu Xiaofeng said, "Xiaohe, I'm just marrying out as the fifth sister of the Trapping Emptiness Island Five Rats. As for our Taishi Fu, I reckon Xian Xiaomao will inevitably have to eat a meal of humble pie."

  Xiaohe seemed to understand and yet not understand, "What's different about this?"

  "Of course it's different, Nan Xie Zhan Zhao got married, his wife is the sworn sister of Wu Miao from Trap Island, Lu Shi, not the daughter of the current Taishi Pang, let alone the emperor's imperial sister, obviously much more low-key."

  Xiao He: Isn't it going to be announced to the world in the future?

  Lu Xiaofeng seemed to know what she was thinking and continued: "Of course there won't be any public announcements, do you think I'm stupid?"

  Xiaohe: *silence*

  On the other side, when they heard Zhan Zhao's sincere request, Bao Zheng and Gong Sun Ce were both surprised and delighted for Zhan Zhao, so there was no reason not to agree.

  The five mice who received this message also rushed back after clearing up the Taohu brothers.

  A married-out sister, this is absolutely something that cannot be delayed or taken lightly.

  But then, Mouse Sister married a Cat - those who knew the inside story couldn't help but feel an urge to burst out laughing.

  This is truly the real-life version of the story about a mouse marrying off his daughter!

  Even Xiaofeng herself was speechless for a long time thinking of the fable "the mouse marries off his daughter".

  She's forgotten about this!

  Niagara Falls sweat...

  "Miss chose this time to marry Zhan Huwei, I'm afraid the intention is not just that?" This was Gong Sun Ce's view on Xiaofeng Miss's sudden exposure of her marriage news.

  "Mr. Gong Sun is thinking too much, I just suddenly feel that getting married isn't so bad after all, at least it saves some unnecessary trouble." She was already hung up on Xiao Mao's tree, and really didn't want to bother with those insignificant rotten peaches anymore, what a hassle!

  "The young lady is now married to Zhan Huwei, and at this time the government office must be extremely lively. I'm afraid it will give people an opportunity to take advantage of." Gong Sun Ce continued to analyze.

  Lu Xiaofeng was really speechless, couldn't they just not think of her as so complicated? She simply thought that marrying Zhan Xiaomao would be a convenient thing to do, why did this abdominal black bamboo think so much nonsense?

  As expected, you're indeed a sinister bamboo, thinking more than ordinary people!

  This is absolutely not derogatory.

  "Didn't you think so, miss?"

  "Mr. Gong," Lu Xiaofeng felt the need to explain his own simplicity, "I really don't have any ulterior motives like you think I do, I just simply want to get married."

  Although marrying was not a good choice for her, under the premise that she would marry Zhan Zhao, if marrying could save some unnecessary trouble, then marrying was the best choice at present.

  When faced with two evils, choose the lesser one.

  "It was just my imagination."

  "Of course you're thinking too much."

  Gongsun Ce stroked his own green whiskers and said, "I think some people will certainly think a bit more about it."

  Lu Xiaofeng said irresponsibly, "That's someone else's business, what does it have to do with me?" Even if the Wen family wants to take advantage of the situation and do something, they can only say that they are not careful and want to rush into your gun, which is their own fault.

  Originally, the simple and innocent Xiao Feng didn't think of this possibility. She had impulsively said she wanted to marry Zhan Zhao, and now her mind was in a mess. Just then, Gong Sun Ce suddenly came to tell her something, and only then did she manage to untangle her thoughts, oh, so there's still this possibility...

  As expected, emotions are indeed troublesome!

  Their family motto - "Mercy does not wield power, emotions do not establish facts, righteousness does not manage wealth, kindness does not hold office" is indeed very profound!

  It's essential to keep a clear head at all times when cracking a case, and not let emotions get in the way. She was now stuck in her own personal feelings and almost overlooked the hidden crisis.

  Although having Gong Sun Ce and Ou Xiao around her has made her vigilance greatly reduced, this is not an excuse that can be used, it's still because she herself let her guard down.

  Little Phoenix Maiden couldn't help but feel secretly on guard.

  The situation in Huzhou is still unclear, and even if the final result ends with the victory of the idol, it cannot rule out some variables that may appear midway.

  And she herself is a variable in the variables, with the surname Pang, it's possible to be cannon fodder, she still wants to live to a ripe old age, must be careful again and again.

  Care for life, keep danger away!

  "Don't you have any suggestions?"

  When Gong Sun Ce asked this way, Lu Xiao Feng looked at him very sincerely and said: "Mr. Gong Sun, I just want to be a bride-to-be peacefully, can't I?"

  Gongsun Ce couldn't help but laugh, "Of course I'll go, I was just casually asking."

  Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but mutter: "You've already got everything figured out, why are you still asking me?"

  Gongsun Ce smiled and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave first and won't disturb the young lady."

  "Mr. Gong Sun walks slowly." You'd better hurry up, always thinking I'm so complicated, but in general, I'm really simple and harmless.

  Watching Mr. Gong Sun leave, Xiao He then went to fetch the wedding dress and said, "Miss, try it on, we can only make do with the time being so rushed."

  Lu Xiaofeng looked at the exquisite embroidery on the big red wedding dress and sighed, "This is already very good, how can it be considered as making do?"

  "If Miss is married from the Grand Master's mansion, it will not be such a simple matter." Xiaohe still had some resentment towards this hasty wedding.

  Lu Xiaofeng was teased by Yiniang and laughed, "How come you look more angry than me."

  "The slave is naturally indignant, Miss deserves better treatment."

  "Are you saying Zhan Zhao is no good?" Lu Xiao Feng teased her intentionally.

  Xiaohe hastily said, "Miss, servant didn't mean it this way."

  "So you're saying I deserve better?"

  Xiaohe was so anxious that he was about to sweat, "Slave... slave is saying that this wedding is a bit too simple."

  Lu Xiaofeng let out a "heh" and laughed, no longer teasing her. "Alright alright, I understand what you mean. But this matter was originally a temporary decision of mine, so the preparation was naturally rushed. It's not possible to think things through too thoroughly, it's just about good enough."

  "It's too pitiful for Miss."

  "No, I reckon by then I'll have to marry out of the Tai Shifu residence once more."

  Little Millet is wide-eyed.

  Lu Xiaofeng said naturally: "This is right, Dad and Mom will definitely not let it go like this."

  Xiaohe finally couldn't help but roll her eyes, "Miss, who marries one person twice? You really are something else."

  Little Phoenix Maiden didn't think she was overthinking, but rather believed that the probability was very high. With Eldest Brother's love for showing off and Mother's doting heart, even Emperor Big Brother would probably feel a little left out if he didn't join in.

  To put it this way, she suddenly decided to marry Xiao Mao Zhi, and after that, the pressure Xiao Mao Zhi would face might not be small - wasn't she a bit too casual about it?

  "Miss, you look beautiful in your wedding dress." Xiao He had already been admiring his mistress's elegant appearance.

  Lu Xiaofeng looked at the wedding dress on her body, then glanced in the mirror. The face in the mirror had a smile and a slightly shy look, exactly like a bride-to-be, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curve up even more.

  She finally had to marry herself off after all—

  Forget it, anyway, marrying her means facing those things, this is something Xiao Mao cannot avoid.

  After thinking about it, Little Phoenix felt at ease and tried on her wedding dress and jewelry, no longer thinking too much.
