Chapter 47 Davis
Xingluo City, Zhu Mansion.
The Zhu family was granted the title of Prince, sharing the fate of the nation, and even possessing the only kingdom fiefdom within the Star Luo Empire.
Of course, the Star Luo Empire could not truly allow the Zhu family to control the land, so they only enjoyed the tax revenue from that fiefdom, while the real managers were the officials sent by the Star Luo Empire.
The Zhu family, as the second largest family in the Star Luo Empire, held a very high position and their residence was closest to the imperial palace.
On this day, Prince Zhu had just returned from the palace, looking worried and distressed.
Seeing him enter the room like this, Madam Zhu couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong?"
Prince Zhu sighed and said, "It's all about Zhu Qing. The Emperor is targeting me! He still doesn't want Zhu Qing to become an apprentice to a man. Letting Zhu Qing go is his way of finding Dai Mubai."
"As a result, Zhu Qing became someone else's apprentice halfway through the journey and did not reunite with Dai Mubai."
Prince Zhu gritted his teeth, quite annoyed.
This isn't directed at Zhu Zhuqing, but at the Xingluo royal family; it's simply outrageous!
In truth, the Zhu family, though seemingly thriving, was actually incredibly stifling in the eyes of its men.
Their women would all become victims of royal infighting. Although one of their daughters would become empress, the royal family would still be extremely wary of them and would even forbid them from marrying royal women.
It was as if the Zhu family only had women.
Madam Zhu frowned slightly. She was no ordinary woman; she was not only a Soul Emperor-level Soul Master but also the current Empress's younger sister. She frowned and said, "Zhu Qing is learning very well from that teacher."
"That teacher is a married man, and besides, you, her husband, are here to vouch for him."
"Even so, they still won't agree?"
Madam Zhu's tone turned cold, and she said in a deep voice, "Then I must go and ask my sister!"
Prince Zhu sighed heavily, his eyes flashing with resentment.
The Zhu family isn't as ruthless as the Xingluo royal family.
He thought about how one of his daughters would have her cultivation destroyed and be exiled to a remote area, where she would live a lonely and miserable life.
He felt extremely uncomfortable!
"I'll try my best to buy Zhu Qing some more time. That Mr. Danheng is a true master of theory..." Prince Zhu said quietly.
He knew very well that he couldn't maintain his dignity for long.
The authority of the Star Luo royal family is beyond question.
He doesn't want to be dignified, so the Star Luo royal family will make him dignified.
At that time, they might go directly to the small town to arrest Zhu Zhuqing.
……
Meanwhile, in Xingluo City, Dan Heng and his group finally arrived.
They found a hotel and checked in.
Long Gong Meng Shu then prepared to take his leave and had a meal with Dan Heng's family.
"Young friend Danheng, I will be staying at my brother's house for ten days to half a month. If you encounter any trouble, you can come here to find me..." Long Gong Meng Shu told Danheng the address.
Dan Heng thanked him, but had no intention of going to find Long Gong Meng Shu.
"Brother Danheng, it's so great to know you. You are the man I admire most. I'd like to toast you."
Meng Yiran's face was flushed as she drank a full glass of wine.
Gu Yuena chuckled lightly, a hint of indifference flashing in her eyes.
Did she not see what the little girl was thinking?
Unfortunately, not to mention that her husband would never care about these women.
In terms of looks alone, Gu Yuena is definitely not inferior to any other woman in the world.
She smiled and said, "Yiran, you are a lovely girl. Many men will pursue you. If you observe carefully, you will definitely find your Mr. Right."
She wanted to tell Meng Yiran to stop thinking about her husband!
Meng Yiran gave an awkward smile and said weakly, "But I think there will never be another man who can possess Dan Heng's qualities."
Meng Yiran looked at Dan Hengdao with a hint of longing and eagerness in her eyes.
This is already the result of trying very hard to hide it.
The couple, Gaishi Longshe and Dan Heng, exchanged a glance and sighed inwardly. It was such a pity that Dan Heng already had a wife; otherwise, they would have been willing to help him achieve this good thing!
How wonderful it would be if Danheng could marry into the Meng family!
Gu Yuena smiled, thinking that it was only because there was no "green tea" label in Douluo Continent, otherwise she would definitely have stuck it on Meng Yiran's forehead.
Zi Ji pouted and said, "No matter how good my brother-in-law is, you can't even think about him anymore. He already has my sister!"
Zi Ji didn't indulge Meng Yiran, nor did she care about etiquette.
Meng Yiran's expression changed slightly. She lowered her eyes and sighed, "Yes..."
Long Gong Meng Shu glanced at his granddaughter, then looked at the food on the table, which Zi Ji had almost finished eating, and said, "Even after a thousand miles of travel, we must part ways. Young friend Dan Heng, if you have time, please come visit me more often!"
After exchanging a few words, Long Gong, Meng Shu, and their family of three got up to take their leave.
After they left, Gu Yuena hugged Danheng's arm and said gently, "Husband, shall we go for a stroll in the city?"
Dan Heng nodded in agreement. Since he was accompanying Gu Yuena on her honeymoon, he naturally wouldn't refuse such a small request.
"I'll stay at the hotel," Zhu Zhuqing said hurriedly.
She made up her mind that she wouldn't leave the hotel until she returned to her small town!
I refuse to believe that the Star Luo Royal Family could discover this!
We absolutely must not cause any trouble for the teacher!
Ziji quickly raised her hand, excitedly saying, "Sister, I want to go! The food here isn't as good as my brother-in-law's cooking, it's not very interesting. I want to go play too!"
"You stay here, you can eat whatever you want..."
Gu Yuena patted Zi Ji on the shoulder and smiled at her.
"..." Zi Ji felt a chill run down her spine and shivered, daring not to say anything more.
"Let's go, my husband."
Gu Yuena leaned on Dan Heng's shoulder and left the room with him.
……
Outside the hotel, the Long Gong Meng Shu family, who had already walked away, were chatting as they went.
Meng Yiran kept her head down, looking dejected.
She didn't say a word; her mind was filled with Danheng's voice, appearance, and smile.
Although Danheng spoke less than ten words to her along the way, she had already fallen deeply in love with him.
That's how a girl's first love is. Once the flame is ignited, she'll indulge in endless fantasies, idealizing the image of her beloved and turning love into a raging fire.
Typical examples are Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong...
Now Meng Yiran has followed in the footsteps of her two predecessors.
Seeing her granddaughter so downcast, Snake Granny Chaotianxiang said, "Yiran, Danheng is a very good young man, and we like him too. However, he already has a wife, and it's impossible for him to marry into the family."
Meng Yiran gave a listless "hmm," looking quite annoyed.
Suddenly, Long Gong Meng Shu said, "You can still spend more time with young friend Dan Heng. You are both still young and have plenty of time; there's no rush to get married."
Snake Granny Chaotianxiang and Meng Yiran both looked at Dragon Duke Meng Shu in surprise, not understanding what he was saying.
Does this mean Meng Yiran should become a mistress?
Even if you admire Danheng, you wouldn't wrong your granddaughter, would you?
"I noticed that Danheng's wife looks very unwell; she seems to be seriously ill..."
