C139 (2/2)

King Yongning, Lu Huan's biological father, was not born by Empress Dowager Feng, but was the child of Grand Concubine An.

However, Lu Huan Zhi had a sweet mouth and often visited the palace. Since she was the vassal lord of Xuan City, she was closer to him than most of the other clan members, so she had always liked Lu Huan Zhi a lot.

An Yang was unwilling to be ignored by her, so she tugged at the empress dowager's sleeve in a spoiled manner. ”Grandmother.”

Seeing that Su Zhi was still standing inside the hall, he scolded her in a low voice, ”Hurry up and drag it out!”

Lu Huan Zhi pushed her aside and said impatiently, ”Did you hear that? That means you have to let them go! ”

An Yang's face turned red as he pointed at the cynical man and shouted, ”Royal Grandmother, look at him!”

Empress Dowager Feng gave her a comforting smile before asking Lu Huan Zhi, ”You know this woman?” How could This Dowager not beat it? ”

”Yes, yes, General Xiao and I will compete fairly. Whoever can win the heart of a beauty will win.”

What sort of taste did this kind of woman like?

The empress dowager cast a disdainful glance at the man with the serious expression, then looked back at Su Zhi.

This woman was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and her demeanor was appropriate. She was indeed not bad, and it was no wonder that she liked him.

”Grandmother, don't listen to his nonsense. His concubine's in the backyard are almost unable to fit in!”

Lu Huan Zhi refused to obey and argued, ”Who said we can't block it? There's still an empty yard in the other garden!”

An Yang choked. He really didn't expect this man to be so shameless.

Su Zhi calmly listened to the people on her seat arguing. She did not say anything and just stood there quietly.

Although Lu Huan's man was truly shameless, he was still quite useful in critical moments.

She looked towards the man in the seat, only to see that Lu Huan Zhi was also looking at her. Seeing her gaze move over, he gave her a flirtatious look.

Su Zhi trembled and shook the goosebumps on her body. She immediately lowered her head.

The three argued that An Yang wanted to punish her, but Lu Huan wouldn't allow her. Empress Dowager Feng stood in the middle, struggling with herself. She argued for a long time without coming to a conclusion.

From Xuan City to the capital, then to the Imperial Palace, Su Zhi did not even drink a single sip. She was already allergic and uncomfortable, and after standing there for a long time, she could not help but feel dizzy.

Seeing her unsteady posture, Lu Huan Zhi felt a little worried. Just as he was about to get up, he heard the panicked voice of a young eunuch coming from outside the hall.

”Empress Dowager! Xiao … General Xiao is here! ”

When he heard that Xiao Gan had arrived, An Yang immediately stood up and excitedly began acting coquettishly towards the empress dowager. ”Imperial Grandmother, let big brother Xiao come in.”

Lu Huan harrumphed disdainfully, ”How can the harem let men in and out so casually? If word of this spreads out, the imperial concubine's reputation would be tarnished.”

An Yang was unhappy and retorted, ”Yo, then this person isn't a man anymore?”

”I'm different. I came here specifically to visit my royal grandmother, so my goal is different from General Xiao's. Little girl, think about it carefully. The general's sweetheart is in the Palace of Fortune, why did he rush over to meet her? ”Don't let it all go to waste.”

An Yang wouldn't listen to these words, but Empress Dowager Feng paid attention.

Although Xiao Qian was an important official of the imperial government, he was not allowed to enter the imperial harem unless it was a special situation. Now, he was looking for her at all costs, so how could she not know the reason?

It was absolutely impossible for him to have done it for the sake of An Yang, who was dreaming. There was only one possibility, and that was …

She glanced at Su Zhi, who was about to faint from exhaustion, and sighed helplessly.

The kid from the Xiao family valued this woman so highly. An Yang's fiery personality was such that he probably wouldn't be able to win.

”Forget it. I've already seen the person. It's my duty.” ”Both of you will be punished, but this one will also be in a difficult position. How about we disgrace this lady and let her go back?”

”Royal Grandmother! How could you! ”

An Yang was unwilling. He had finally found an opportunity, but how could he let it go? He didn't know how long he would have to wait until the next time.

”Grandmother Huang is right. She does business in a proper manner and has never provoked anyone. Some people use their status to bully the common people. When word spreads, their reputations will not be pleasant.”

In the end, Empress Dowager Feng became the peacemaker and allowed Su Zhi to leave the palace.

Originally, it was a problem whether he could recover completely with that face. Since his daughter cared about her looks, she was already feeling very upset. How could she punish him for no reason at all? Besides, she liked the woman who stood there with neither arrogance nor impatience. Although she was not from the Su Family, she still felt a sense of familiarity when she saw Su Zhi.

Anyang's argument was fruitless, and he could only watch Su Zhi leave the Palace. When he thought that Xiao Qian might really have come specifically for her, he became even more furious.
