Chapter 87 Accident
"What do you mean?" Zuo Xiangning's face changed slightly, she patted his back and asked warmly, "What happened?"

Ling Xiao hugged her but stopped talking.

Zuo Xiangning guessed: "Is it because your family doesn't agree with you marrying me?"

Ling Xiao pushed Zuo Xiangning away, stared into her eyes, and asked, "Are you still willing to marry?"

Zuo Xiangning hesitated.

"You don't want to?" Ling Xiao's face turned pale.

"A marriage that is not recognized by your parents and family will not be happy." Zuo Xiangning's heart felt as bitter and astringent as if she had eaten coptis, "I don't want you to have a dispute with the elders in the family because of me. Identity and status deserve better people to be by your side.”

"I want to marry you, and no one can stop me!" Ling Xiao's eyes were red and he asked in a deep voice: "I just ask you, if one day, we all betray each other, will you still be willing to marry me?"

Zuo Xiangning met his eyes, tears streaming down her face.

Ling Xiao looked at her tears and let go of her arm in disappointment.

"I can wait." Zuo Xiangning hurriedly grabbed his sleeve, "Wait until they agree."

Ling Xiao's eyes flashed with pain. He closed his eyes for a moment, and when he looked at Zuo Xiangning again, his eyes were clear.

"Gu Zhiqing is not a good match. Li Shilang's eldest son, Min Shangshu's eldest grandson, and Mu Junyi, the new champion, are all pretty good..."

"What do you mean?" Zuo Xiangning's eyes widened in disbelief: "Are you helping me choose a husband?"

"Shilang Li's eldest son is capable of both literary and martial arts. He is upright and kind-hearted. No matter what the situation, he should be able to protect you." Ling Xiao took out two deeds of betrayal from his arms and placed them next to him. On the table, "Tomorrow I will send two people to you. This is their contract of sale."

"Did you misunderstand?" Zuo Xiangning shook his arm twice and explained nervously: "I met Gu Zhiqing on the road. The reason why I went to the restaurant with him was just to know why he wanted to marry him. I didn’t mean anything else.”

Ling Xiao's eyes watched her grabbing his fingers.

Her fingers are slender and soft, with slightly upturned fingertips, exuding a mysterious and alluring aura that makes people want to touch them involuntarily.

"I will send you the money every year on time."

The man's cold attitude made Zuo Xiangning feel cold in her heart.

She slowly loosened her fingers and smiled at the man: "Thank you for taking care of me, Your Majesty."

She watched him open the door, walk out, and then close the door gently.

Zuo Xiangning bit her lower lip hard, but the tears in the corners of her eyes could not help but roll down.

She didn't expect that he would be so stingy and leave like this without even listening to her explanation?

But the thought only passed through her mind for a moment, and she quickly denied it.

Something must have happened to him.

Zuo Xiangning hurriedly opened the door, but where was Ling Xiao's shadow outside?
She waited uneasily until dawn and asked Zhang Tu to find a way to quietly find out if anything had happened in Zhongyuan Hou Mansion recently.

She packed up herself, took the gifts from Cangzhou and Frontier, and followed Zuo Xiangyu to Prince Qi's Mansion.

"The fourth sister is dressed like a mistress," Zuo Xiangyu said sourly.Zuo Xiangning, who hadn't slept much all night, said angrily: "I really want to give the opportunity of being a mistress to the third sister, but the Gu family doesn't agree."

Zuo Xiangyu felt a stiffness in her neck and was about to fight back, but suddenly she seemed to have thought of something again, so she softened and sat back.

"Yes, the fourth sister is so charming now. What man can't like her? Even I, the elder sister, like her so much that I can't wait to hold her in my arms and coax her." Zuo Xiangyu curled her lips.

Zuo Xiangning rolled her eyes at her and said: "If Third Sister is jealous, she should eat less. In less than ten days, she should be able to become weak and charming Liu Fufeng. Or Third Sister, ask Aunt Liu, I think Aunt Liu has maintained a slender figure for many years, so she must have some secrets."

"What do you mean by this? After all, my aunt is also an elder. If you say this to her, do you think you are putting the second sister, the second brother, and me in your eyes?" Zuo Xiangyu's cheeks bulged in anger.

"Why is Third Sister getting so grumpy? Have you been lazy recently and not helped grandma copy scriptures?"

Zuo Xiangning had already heard that after Aunt Liu's accident, Zuo Xiangyu went to copy scriptures for the old lady every day in order to please her.

With Zuo Xiangyu's temperament, she would definitely want to vomit blood.

Sure enough, Zuo Xiangyu jumped up as if she had been pinched, pointed at Zuo Xiangning and said: "Zuo Xiangyu, don't think that you are talking about a good family now, but you are so arrogant and look down on others!"

"Third sister, can you please lower your voice? We are on the street now, what should we do if people hear us? I don't care, after all, we have already been engaged, but third sister has not said goodbye yet." Zuo Xiangning blinked. Her big bright eyes looked at the frustrated Zuo Xiangyu with a smile.

Zuo Xiangyu gritted her teeth angrily and sat back on the chair.

Arriving at Prince Qi's Mansion, Zuo Xiangning and Zuo Xiangyu were taken to Zuo Xiangyun's yard.

Zuo Xiangyun used to live in a courtyard with several concubines, but now she has moved to a separate courtyard next to the main courtyard.

The two of them passed by the entrance of the main courtyard, and the eldest girl next to Princess Qi happened to come out.

Both of them stopped, a little at a loss.

In Prince Qi's Mansion, Princess Qi is the real mistress. No matter how favored Zuo Xiangyun is, she is just a concubine. In other people's backyards, if a concubine's natal family comes to visit, they cannot go through the front door.

But Zuo Xiangyun was different from others. Although she was not a concubine, she was more favored than the concubines.

"The third and fourth girls are here?" Princess Qi's eldest girl Qinglian smiled and saluted the two, "Just now the princess learned that Aunt Zuo had made a lot of snacks in the kitchen, and asked me to remind Aunt Zuo, but Be sure not to eat too much, or you may spoil the child...it took me a long time to make it for my sister."

Qinglian kept saying "aunt" and said that Zuo Xiangyu and Zuo Xiangning's faces were not very good-looking, especially Zuo Xiangyu's face which was blue and white, as if someone had slapped her twice.

"Thank you for your trouble, Princess." Zuo Xiangning raised the corner of her lips and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Qi asked us two sisters to come and see our second sister. Could you please Miss Qinglian to say hello to the Princess on our sisters' behalf? Our sisters will not You’re disturbing the princess.”

Qinglian was originally ordered by Princess Qi to beat the Zuo sisters. Now that Zuo Xiangning mentioned His Highness Prince Qi, she naturally did not dare to say anything more.

She gave a perfunctory salute to the two of them, then turned around and returned to the main courtyard.

Zuo Xiangyu looked at the courtyard door that closed with a "bang" and stamped her foot angrily. Seeing what Zuo Xiangning was about to say, Zuo Xiangning hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, shaking her head vigorously. .

Zuo Xiangyu shook off Zuo Xiangning's hand and walked into the small courtyard in front.

Zuo Xiangning glanced at the door of the main courtyard, feeling slightly nervous.

She might have come to Prince Qi's Mansion by mistake today...
