He tightened the reins abruptly, forcing the horse to stop.

"uncle!"

Ji Wuhen's heart skipped a beat, and the joy of getting married couldn't suppress the tension at this moment, and she looked at him indifferently.

"Third Highness, what is going on?"

Lan Ping looked unhappy, tried his best to restrain his inner impulse, lowered his voice, and asked in a deep voice.

"Uncle, it's a long story. It's still on the street. After today's incident is over, I'll talk to you in detail. How about it?"

Seeing the team that suddenly stopped, the people were a little confused.

Lan Ping took a deep breath and glanced at Lan Zhihe.

Ji Wuhen glanced at the confidant guard, who immediately clamped the horse's belly, walked to Lan Zhihe's side, tore off a piece of red silk from his waist, and put it on for her.

Lan Zhihe also noticed the person in front at this moment.

Looking at her father who was talking with Ji Wuhen, the eyes of the two fell on her from time to time, she clenched her hands tightly, and there was hope in her eyes.

However, not long after this hope was born, he watched the two urge the horse under them to continue moving forward again.

The crowd also quickly returned to the previous lively scene, as if the episode just now had never happened.

Followed by the sedan chair, Lan Zhihe's face was pale, she didn't understand why her father turned a blind eye when he clearly saw him.

Riding a horse, Lan Ping's mood is not much better at the moment.

He didn't understand how his daughter could appear in the prime minister's mansion even when she stayed at home well, and even became the personal maid of the third princess, especially that face.

There was a bloody scar in front of his eyes, and he was full of doubts in his heart, but he also knew that he could only endure it now.

He is not a high-ranking official, so he got into this position because of Ji Yunyan's reputation in front of the emperor before, and he is getting married today, no matter what, he can't mess up this matter.

In the future, the Lan family will still rely on this nephew after all.

As for the daughter, if it can be exchanged for the interests of the family, sacrificing her alone is naturally feasible.

It depends on whether what Ji Wuhen gave can make him ruthless enough to give up on her.

Thinking of this, Lan Ping's hand holding the rein became stronger.

Looking at the team that was continuing to advance, Lu Xiyue shook her head, and said in a sarcastic tone: "I never thought that, with my own daughter right in front of me, he can still pretend to be fine."

Lan Ping clearly saw Lan Zhihe and recognized her identity.

Anyone who sees his own daughter here, disfigured, will not turn a blind eye.

However, Xiao Yunheng had expected it a long time ago: "The Lan family is weak, and they will rely on Ji Wuhen in the future, so naturally they won't tear themselves apart."

"Since you know everything, why do you still do this?" Lu Xiyue was a little puzzled.

"Just like you wanted to do last night."

Let Ji Wuhen separate from his uncle's family.

Maybe it's just a small matter for them, but if there are too many things, when they pile up, the resentment in people's hearts will also increase.

At that time, will Lan Ping still spare no effort to help Ji Wuhen as he is now?

Even if he is not in a high position, no matter how inconspicuous he is, he can stir up a storm.

Lu Xiyue understood.

After all, it's not a big deal.

It's just that I feel sorry for Lan Zhihe, I'm afraid he still thinks that his father will take her home when he sees her.

Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that Lan Ping will never admit that the "Xiao He" beside Yao Xinyu is his daughter Lan Zhihe.

The welcoming team gradually moved away.

There was no more excitement to watch, the two sat down, drank tea quietly, and discussed the following matters.

Not long after, the shop waiter outside knocked on the door.

"Two guest officers, a guest surnamed Zhao is here."

Surnamed Zhao!

Lu Xiyue raised her eyebrows. At this time, it should be the eldest brother.

"Please come in."

As soon as Zhao Pinqian came in, he walked to sit between the two of them consciously, and sent you a cup of hot tea.

It was still warm in spring, and after drinking a cup of hot tea, his dry throat was finally relieved. He cleared his throat, looked at the two of them, and said with a snort, "You husband and wife are very leisurely. If you have free time, watch the excitement and drink tea here."

This has inherited the title of King Ning, so it stands to reason that he should be busy.

He was a merchant, and he was too busy to touch the ground when he took back the position of the owner. How could this kid take his sister around every day to be chic.

Zhao Pinqian was very upset.

Xiao Yunheng pursed his lips and said nothing, he liked this kind of life very much.

Of course, if the elder brother keeps busy and doesn't bother him and Xiyue, he will like it even more.

"Isn't this just in time for the excitement? The prince is getting married, so don't take a good look at it." Lu Xiyue poured him another glass with a smile.

After Zhao Pinqian finished his tea, he squinted his eyes and looked at her: "Something is wrong, did you two do something bad again?"

What's the point of a prince marrying a wife? Emperor Hui has so many sons, and there will be more wives in the future.

Lu Xiyue coughed lightly, and subconsciously looked at the young man opposite.

The two smiled at each other.

Zhao Pinqian: "..."

"That's enough, brother, I'm still here."

"That's right, Yun Heng and I went to the Third Prince's Mansion last night..."

She told him everything from what happened last night to today's little episode on the way to welcome the bride.

Zhao Pinqian put down his teacup, only feeling surprised: "This girl from the Lan family is quite powerful."

"Yeah, it's a pity, the Yao Xinyu she met was even more powerful."

One is despicable, the other is cruel.

After chatting for a while, Zhao Pinqian did not forget the business, he took out the house deed and contract from his sleeve.

"These are after I returned to the capital, according to the flower dew shop and dim sum shop, and I put them there for you."

He is now the head of the Zhao family, and his business can only be under the name of Tianxia Commercial Firm.

These things were originally agreed to be half of him, so naturally they should be regarded as private property.

Lu Xiyue also understood what he meant, and accepted it openly, but what surprised her was that besides the capital city, there were several places adjacent to the capital city in the land deed.

"Brother, you have opened more than a dozen shops!" After counting all the contracts, Lu Xiyue said in amazement, all of them have become chain stores.

"Well, I got caught up in the matter of Tianxia Commercial Bank, otherwise, the other two would have opened long ago."

Lu Lu Xiyue blinked, this big brother really didn't lose at all.

"By the way, the flower dew shop in the capital is just across the street and it will be there after turning a corner. When you are free some other day, go and see for yourself. I have something to do, so I have to go to work."

After finishing speaking, he patted his sleeves, pulled out the folding fan from his waist, and got up to leave.

"Brother." Lu Xiyue called to stop him, and asked curiously, "What are you busy with, can I follow?"

Staying in the palace all day with nothing to do, and guarding against the eyes of everyone, she also wanted to find something to do.

Zhao Pinqian looked at Xiao Yunheng: "Then it depends on what King Ning wants."

This is a big jealousy.
