Chapter 253: Ask Lu Zhuo for marriage

Xia Anan: "He ranks ninth and is smaller than Your Highness Eighth. Why did he leave, but Your Highness Eighth stay in the capital?"

Lu Zhuo: "The emperor prefers the Eighth Highness."

Xia Anan: "Prefer? The prince has reached his age but has not gone to the fiefdom... Does the emperor want to change the Eighth Highness to the Crown Prince?"

Lu Zhuo: "Shut up, dare to say anything."

Xia Anan: “…”

...

The next day, Xia Anan was playing with Lu Linghui while playing with ball, and accidentally discovered a place.

When she saw that place, her whole heart stopped.

There is actually not far from the area where people are active.

After passing by a small path, there is an empty meadow by the river.

The surrounding trees create a dark and cool independent space.

This is where she fell into the water in her dream!

The river next to it doesn't look deep and is black and broken.

The river water in the dream should have just rained, and the amount of water was much more than what I saw now. It was flowing rapidly and the river water was turbid. There were vaguely falling leaves on the river surface, silently.

Xia An closed her eyes and tried hard to see who she met here.

Who pushed her into the water?

Who else? He could pull her up, but he retracted his hand?

However, I can't see clearly.

I felt like something was stuck in my heart... infinite fear.

...

"Sister An'an!" Lu Linghui's shout sounded from afar, "Have you found the ball?"

"Finished." Xia Anan picked up the ball and went back.

...

Dingguo Duke’s Mansion, Jixiangyuan.

"He took Xia Anan to meet the imperial concubine." Bai Zhenzhen said.

The old lady lowered her eyes and said nothing.

"Grandma, you said, will he..."

Old lady: "Don't stutter in front of me."

Bai Zhenzhen: "Wasn't Xia Anan unwilling to be a concubine? Do you think the fifth brother wants to marry her?"

The old lady looked ridiculous: "How is that possible?"

"I think..." Bai Zhenzhen said, "If Concubine Zheng helps, nothing is impossible! Even His Royal Highness, wouldn't he behaved and put the person back?"

The old lady was silent for a moment, and suddenly slapped her on the table: "Unless I die, I will never allow my grandson to marry those little bitches who are humble and have a higher heart!"

Bai Zhenzhen's face changed slightly, and she didn't answer.

The old lady seemed to realize something, looked at Bai Zhenzhen and said, "Go and call the Duke, Madam, and your fifth brother."

Bai Zhenzhen: "Yes."

After everyone arrived, the old lady said, "…I'm calling you here for Zhuo'er's marriage."

The Duke of the State said: "Zhuoer is not young anymore, it's time to discuss marriage."

The lady frowned.

Her son's marriage naturally had to be decided by her.

"I compared it." The old lady said again, "Just let it go! No matter what appearance and temperament are, they are very compatible with Zhuoer! The two families get married, and they are more kinship!"

The Duke had no objection and looked at his wife and Lu Zhuo.

"Zhuo'er, what do you think?" the old lady asked the lady.

The lady doesn't like Lu Xinlan, so she naturally doesn't like her daughter.

But she also knew that Xia Lu is now the prime minister and has a bright future. The marriage between the two families is beneficial to Lu Zhuo.

Besides, the old lady loved Xia Ruo and was as fond of her as if she was willing to marry her to Lu Zhuo, which was also considered to be a pity for him.

So, although she felt uncomfortable, she didn't say much.

"Thank you grandmother for thinking about grandson." Lu Zhuo smiled, "That's right, the emperor asked me before..."
