Lu Yan nodded and said, "You are still young now. After you get engaged, you will be able to get married in another year."
Zhou Zhao lowered his head and said, "But I don't want to marry this princess."
Seeing his expression, Lu Yan frowned and asked softly, "What's wrong with you? Do you have a sweetheart?"
Zhou Zhao did not deny it and still lowered his head.
Lu Yan comforted him and said, "Zhao'er, don't be impatient. You can wait until you meet the princess first."
Zhou Zhao said seriously: "Uncle, if I don't like her, I shouldn't delay her, don't you think so?"
Lu Yan sat next to him and said slowly: "How do you know you don't like her when you haven't even met her? Zhao'er, don't worry about so much for now. We will meet the princess tomorrow before making a decision." ?.?????. ???
He and the eldest prince did not say that they must force the marriage. They wanted to let the two children meet and get engaged if they were suitable. If they were not suitable, that would be it.
On the other side, at the eldest prince's side, Nan Fengling also made a fuss, "No, I won't marry."
The eldest prince comforted her and said, "I'm not asking you to marry now. I'm asking you to take a look. If you like her, marry her. If you don't, don't."
Nan Fengling turned his head and said, "Dad, I already have someone I like in my heart."
"Who? Who is the person you said you like?" the eldest prince asked quickly.
Nan Fengling turned her back to him and said, "I only know his surname is Zhou."
The eldest prince turned pale with anger, "You like a person who you only know by his last name?"
Nan Fengling turned back with anger on his face, "Even if I don't like anyone, I won't listen to you and marry someone I don't know at all."
The eldest prince leaned against the table and lightly beat his chest, "Ling'er, dad said, you have to look at her first. If you don't like her, then dad won't force you to marry."
After hearing what he said, Nan Fengling could only think that he was lying to herself, and turned around and said, "Dad, you don't need to say any more, I'm leaving first."
After saying that, he left here immediately.
The eldest prince wanted to send someone to chase her back, but she accidentally sneaked away.
at night,
Zhou Zhao felt really bored and uncomfortable. After much thought, he finally came to the pavilion near the eldest prince's residence alone.
He sat in the pavilion blowing the cold wind and was about to fall asleep.
I don’t know how long it took, but someone suddenly called out: “Brother Zhou.”
Zhou Zhao looked up and saw the woman he met today again. He sat up in surprise and asked her, "Why are you here in the middle of the night?"
Nan Fengling sat down, lowered his head and said, "My father also proposed a marriage to me. He wants me to marry someone I have never met."
When Zhou Zhao heard that it turned out that the two of them were in love with each other, he asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
Nan Feng Ling's eyes lit up and he said, "I plan to leave here and go to Cheng'an County."
After Zhou Zhao heard this, he quickly asked her: "Why do you want Cheng'an County?"
Nan Fengling said slowly: "I met a sister who is the shopkeeper of the incense shop there. She is kind and very easy to get along with."
After Zhou Zhao heard this, he thought for a while and asked, "Is the incense shop you mentioned named Zhou?"
Nan Fengling nodded, "Yes, it is indeed Zhou."
Zhou Zhao's mind turned around and he said, "Do you often go to Zhou's house to buy incense these days?"
Nan Fengling was stunned for a moment and replied: "That's right."
Zhou Zhao looked her over and asked, "Girl, can I ask what your name is?"
Nan Fengling's face showed a hint of shyness, and he said slowly: "My surname is Nanfeng..."
Before she finished speaking, Zhou Zhao completely understood that this girl was the one who wanted to marry her.
He looked shocked and froze in place.
Nan Fengling squatted down playfully and asked, "What's wrong? Why did you react so strongly when you heard my last name?"
Zhou Zhao said truthfully: "The person I proposed to marry happens to be named Nanfeng, and she is the eldest prince's legitimate daughter."
Nan Fengling was shocked and stared at Zhou Zhao for a moment. After a while, she instantly understood what was going on.
It turns out that the person she is going to marry is the person she has always been thinking about.
Both of them fell silent immediately.
After a while, Zhou Zhao told the truth about his home being the Zhou Family Incense Shop.
Nan Fengling also told him that he was the princess.
As the two of them chatted like this, it started to get dark before they knew it.
In the eldest prince's mansion, because the two of them were not in the mansion, everything was in chaos.
After searching for most of the day.
Zhou Zhao and Nan Fengling returned home.
The eldest prince strode to Nan Feng Ling's side, pulled her and said: "Ling'er, if you don't want to get married, then we won't get married. I just made an agreement with your Uncle Lu, let's forget about this marriage. .”
Lu Yan on the side also said to Zhou Zhao: "Yes, this marriage is over."
Zhou Zhao raised his head and looked at Nan Fengling.
Seeing her silence, the eldest prince thought she didn't believe it, so he quickly said: "It's true. If you don't want to marry, don't marry. If you don't want to see, don't see. We won't force you."
Nan Fengling looked at his father with wide eyes, pulled him and said, "Wrong! It's all wrong!"
