Chapter 305 Barbarian girl enters the house
Anilan felt deeply betrayed.
Standing in front of the tall door lintel of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, she glanced at the many servants waiting outside the door.
And Lou Xiao, who was surrounded by them, was still wearing the same plain cloth clothes, without a single silver ornament in her hair.
Is she really an official?
Lou Xiao whispered something to Lou Hong beside him, and soon someone came to Anilan.
He bowed his head and said respectfully, "Sir, please come this way."
Anilan looked up and saw Lou Xiao nodded to her, so she followed the servant to the guest room.
Meanwhile, Lou Hong was still talking to her about what had happened recently in the capital.
"Someone in the court suggested that in order to continue the royal bloodline, good men should be selected to enter the palace.
Now those who are unwilling in the capital are looking for someone to marry, for fear of being chosen. "
A group of servants followed behind the two men. Lou Xiao took off the long sword behind him and handed it to the servant beside him, saying disapprovingly,
"What's wrong with serving His Majesty? Not everyone can enter the palace. It depends on whether His Majesty likes it or not."
How could an ordinary man be worthy of her senior sister?
Lou Hong nodded in agreement, but he also understood the actions of many people.
"Once you enter the palace, it's hard to get out. And the emperor's mind is hard to predict. If it's good, it will help the family. If it's not good, it will endanger the lives of the people in the clan. Not everyone is willing to take the risk."
Of course, overwhelming wealth is enviable, but one mistake can lead to total failure.
Of course there were people who tried their best to enter the palace, but at least there were much fewer of them in the capital.
"Your Majesty, isn't he angry too?"
Lou Xiao felt that these people were really bold and were not afraid of angering others by doing this.
"Your Majesty is wise and generous. Don't bother with them. There are so many men in the world. Are you short of them?"
They went to Yusheng Courtyard, and Lou Xiao sat down in his old seat.
Lou Hong had the prepared snacks placed on the table one by one, knowing that she would definitely remember this when she was away.
"But I heard that there will be many good men from Yunsu City coming to Beijing, it seems that they are prepared."
Needless to say, there are preparations to be made, but judging by the circumstances, His Majesty would be pleased to see it happen.
Lou Xiao doesn't care about His Majesty's private affairs. She thinks no one is worthy of her senior sister.
If you really count carefully, Li Huaiqing is just barely qualified, but I haven't heard that he has any plans to enter the palace.
Just think about it and you will know that no one will tell her whether she has entered the palace or not.
"It would be good to have more people in the palace. The men in Yunsu City are good-looking and well-read. It would be best if they could dance and sing to make His Majesty happy—"
Somehow she thought of Yu Heng, but she quickly shook the thought off.
After all, he had been in public before, so no matter how bold Yun Sucheng was, he would not dare to send him up.
"These are not our business. There are no men of marriageable age in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion." Lou Xiao glanced at Lou Hong. He was already married, so he would not be chosen.
"You mentioned this as soon as you came in. There must be some special reason. Tell me."
Lou Hong was a little surprised when he was told this. He had originally wanted to find a more formal opportunity to bring it up.
So as not to be too deliberate and offend her.
In this case, I had no choice but to tell the truth, "There is no man of marriageable age in our house, but Old Taishan...
According to the news from the palace, they intend to register Yu Jing. Although the decree has not been issued yet, he has come to ask Lao Taishan, saying that he does not want to enter the palace. "
Lou Hong's words were not very clear. Lou Xiao said nonchalantly while biting a date cake.
"Let the palace delete his name? It shouldn't be difficult. That Yu Jing——"
Lou Xiao thought for a long time but couldn't remember what he looked like. That senior sister probably didn't like him either.
"I'll do it when I go to the palace tomorrow."
Lou Hong did not look happy when he heard this, and hesitated to speak.
Lou Xiao raised her eyebrows, realizing that there might be something else. "Why? Unsatisfied?"
"Old Taishan's idea is that if His Majesty knows that I have deleted my name, it might make Him unhappy. So, why not -"
Seeing that he didn't dare to say anything, Lou Hong raised the corner of his mouth with a smile, "Why not what?"
"Why not let you get engaged to him? It will be a closer relationship, and His Majesty won't say anything."
Lou Hong himself knew that this was a bad idea, but he really couldn't disobey the old man.
Lou Xiao stared at him without saying anything. Lou Hong didn't dare to look directly at her, so he could only lower his eyebrows and eyes, and his gaze was only on the dining table in front of him.
The less she spoke, the angrier she became. Lou Hong felt a burning sensation on his head.
She almost stared him to death.
She is really becoming more and more like a Duke of Zhenguo.
After a long time, Lou Xiao leaned back, leaned on the back of the chair and said lazily,
"I will help him cancel his name. For the rest, forget it."
After saying that, without waiting for his reply, she turned around and asked someone to prepare hot water so that she could take a shower and change her clothes.
Only Lou Hong stood up, adjusted his facial expression, and looked at her back with a complicated look.

The guest rooms in the Zhenguo Mansion are much better than those in Qieyue Village.
After Anilan was brought in by the servant, he threw his bag to the ground and threw himself on the soft big bed, rolling around happily.
The servant frowned slightly as he looked at her shoes which she had not taken off yet and her clothes which were covered with dust.
"She's so rich!"
Anilan sighed, hugged the quilt, took a deep breath, and said, "It smells so good."
The servant asked quietly, "You must be tired from the journey. Do you want some hot water to wash up?"
Anilan buried his face in the quilt and shook his head, "No! Why wash it properly?"
Nanzike doesn't have the habit of taking a bath regularly.
The waiter was stunned for a moment, "But if you don't wash, how can you put on the clothes I prepared for you..."
Anilan could no longer walk around the capital wearing Nanzi's clothes.
Moreover, Lou Xiao intended to bring her into the palace, how could it be so dirty?
"What clothes? I brought clothes with me, I don't want to change!"
Anilan was a little stubborn, “Does Jingcheng have to wrap himself up tightly like you guys and wear something so ugly?
I don’t want to wear your clothes, they are not as pretty as the ones from my Qieyue Village!”
She turned her head and saw the servant's embarrassed expression.
"Just tell her that. If you have any dissatisfaction, just tell me in person!"
The servant had nothing to say, but she couldn't really ignore it, but Anilan refused to listen. If she didn't want to wash it, she didn't wash it. If she didn't want to change it, she didn't change it.
The maid was at a loss as to what to do with her, so she had to give up.
Anilan held his chin high and watched them retreat, feeling a little victorious.
But soon I felt hungry, so I stood up and looked around but didn't see anyone.
He jumped up to the rooftop, and seeing a little servant passing by not far away, he chased after him.
"Hey! Where do your adults live?"
The maid was so scared that she was about to scream, but she quickly recognized her as the "beauty" brought back by Lou Xiao and pointed in a direction.
Anilan patted the other person's shoulder and disappeared in an instant.
After several twists and turns, I finally arrived at Yusheng Courtyard, but I heard that the courtyard was very quiet with only the sound of water.
"Is she taking a shower?"
