Hope for luck

Chapter 206
King Lu's thoughts are so heavy, and Gao Pan's heart is also quite complicated, and he dare not underestimate him.

"What is Your Highness going to do to Wei Yan'an?" Gao Pan asked cautiously.

"It's nothing, the Wu family was originally just a serious merchant, but it got involved in such a thing for no reason. This king really finds it strange... In your opinion, what is the Wei family... or what does Wei Yan'an want to do? "

Lu Wang had a serious face, and asked Gao Pan instead.

Hearing this, Gao Pan frowned, his thoughts turned in unison, his heart moved, and he replied softly:

"Your Highness, Wei Yan'an is someone close to King Liang. To put it mildly, he is a close friend of King Liang. The reason why the Wu family got involved, as far as I know, is because the Wu family is planning to replace the Shen family. The position of Shang, and what the status of Huang Shang is, I think His Highness should know it!"

Gao Pan didn't speak too much, but King Lu understood Gao Pan's words, his eyes flashed, as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, he realized that he changed the topic with a smile, and the two chatted about this and that, just like people of the same generation meeting each other.

The scene was very cheerful for a time, and Lu Wang also attached great importance to Gao Pan, and some of Gao Pan's opinions were even more eye-catching, and unconsciously, he discussed it in depth for a long time.

It wasn't until it was about time to light the lights that King Lu realized that he was going to stay with Gao Pan in the palace to have dinner together.

But Gao Pan refused. He was still in a hurry to go home and explain the situation to his family. Besides, he didn't dare to really stay and have dinner with King Lu. The two of them were not close enough for this.

Seeing this, King Lu felt quite sorry, but he didn't force him to stay, so he asked someone to send Gao Pan home.

Not long after Gao Pan left, a man came in next to King Lu, dressed in strong clothes and with a long knife on his waist, and said respectfully beside King Lu:
"Your Highness, there is news from the palace..."

"what?!"

After hearing the news, King Lu was full of disbelief. He looked in the direction where Gao Pan left just now, his eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything in the end.

"Your Highness, the emperor called urgently to let you enter the palace!"

At this moment, another person hurriedly ran in to report back.

Seeing this, King Lu had no choice but to put aside all the conjectures in his heart, changed into a suit of clothes, and hurried into the palace and left.

……

……

The earlier Jingxihou Mansion.

Cui Yi, who came back from the Xicheng school, brought his younger sister to the main room in the backyard of the Hou Mansion.

This is the courtyard where Cui Fujin and Shen Yiling were. Hearing that Cui Yi and Cui Zhihui had come, Shen Yiling was a little surprised and rushed to greet them.

For her two children, Shen Yiling was naturally distressed. As soon as she entered the house, she asked someone to change the charcoal fire in the house, and took off the cloaks for the two of them herself, which was very affectionate.

"Mother, don't worry, just ask my sister, what can I get today!"

Cui Yi sat down with a puff, picked up the teacup and took a big sip, provoking Shen Yiling to give him an angry look. After hearing what he said, he turned to look at Cui Zhihui.

Seeing that Cui Zhihui was also at a loss, Shen Yiling was even more puzzled.

"What? At the party today, is there anyone else who can get into the eyes of our young lady?"

Shen Yiling thought about it, and only felt that this was the only reason.

After hearing this, Cui Zhihui raised her head arrogantly, and said disapprovingly:

"Mother, I've watched those sons and sisters several times, and they are very capable. My daughter told you a long time ago, how could it be your turn to say it today!"

The implication is that, as usual, she doesn't look down on any of the sons at the party.

After hearing this, Shen Yiling pointed at her head angrily:
"You are old and young. Since you don't see the right person, don't make decisions for your mother from now on!"

When Cui Zhihui heard this, she shook her head like a rattle:
"Don't...don't, my daughter doesn't want to marry, mother, you know that the husband my daughter wants is capable of literature and martial arts, and I have to like it!"

After Shen Yiling heard this, she straightened her face and said in a serious voice:

"Nonsense, your father and I have given you many opportunities, but we can't let you mess around..."

Before the words fell, Cui Yi quickly smoothed things over:

"Mother, calm down, today is different, let me say one person, I will definitely meet my sister's standard!"

After Shen Yiling heard this, her face was full of surprise, and she hurriedly asked:
"who is it?"

Cui Zhihui vaguely thought of something, her pretty face changed slightly, and she stared straight at Cui Yi.

"Gao Pan! Mom, you don't know that Gao Pan today..."

Sure enough, the person Cui Yi mentioned was exactly the person Cui Zhihui had in mind.

I only heard that Cui Yi praised Gao Pan as a high-ranking man, versatile in both civil and military affairs, and his appearance was first-class. He was absolutely worthy of Cui Zhihui. This is, so far, the person who most meets Cui Zhihui's criteria for choosing a husband.

But Cui Zhihui only felt that she was very sensitive in her heart. Did she know that Gao Pan was Shen Jinhua's sweetheart, how could she win the love of others?

Furthermore, in Cui Zhihui's haughty heart, she actually looked down on Gao Pan, and if it wasn't for Shen Jinhua's reason, Cui Zhihui would not have looked at him more.

"Brother, that's enough. Do you know who Gao Pan is?"

Seeing Cui Yi chattering about what he had seen and heard today, Cui Zhihui just felt disgusted and quickly stopped him.

And Shen Yiling was fascinated by listening, seeing Cui Zhihui interrupting Cui Yi's words, she gave Cui Zhihui a dissatisfied look, and asked sternly:
"Then tell me, who is Gao Pan?"

Cui Zhihui originally wanted to blurt out that Gao Pan was Shen Jinhua's sweetheart, and she couldn't compete with her cousin for a husband.

But when she thought about it, Shen Jinhua didn't want outsiders to know, and if she said it, Shen Jinhua would never resent herself in the future, and swallowed the words when she came to her mouth.

"...Gao Pan him...he...he is a sinner, he was the one who beat Wei Yan'an to death at today's gathering, I will not marry such a person even if I beat him to death!"

Cui Zhihui couldn't find any good reason for a while, so she could only find a very awkward reason to prevaricate.

"What?... What's going on here?"

Shen Yiling was shocked when she heard the words, and turned to look at Cui Yi.

Cui Yi first glanced at Cui Zhihui, and then calmly talked about the matter between Gao Pan and Wei Yan'an.

Cui Yi is naturally on Gao Pan's side, so, from what Shen Yiling heard, she also felt that Gao Pan did the right thing. After hearing it, she patted the table and said:
"That's how it should be. This kind of despicable villain dared to sneak attack when he couldn't win, but he was counterattacked to the ground. Well, it's really satisfying!"

Both Cui Yi and Cui Zhihui were shocked by Shen Yiling's praise. They didn't understand why Shen Yiling had such a good impression of Gao Pan?

"Mother, that's what I want to say. Gao Pan is the best husband-in-law for my sister. Besides, I've observed him for a long time. Gao Pan is definitely not a Bo Xinglang, and he has a good family background. It would be best for my sister to marry him!"

Cui Yi seemed a little anxious, so anxious that he wanted to rush Cui Zhihui into marriage.
