I just want to live a good life

Chapter 495 Asking for Marriage

Unable to get more information from Princess Guang'an, Su Nuan had no intention of staying any longer. She chatted with Princess Guang'an for a few minutes and prepared to leave.

"Concubine Xia, I have something to discuss with you. I was going to visit the Crown Prince's residence today, but I was delayed. Now that you are here, I will propose to you today."

what?

Su Nuan was confused. She felt that her brain was not enough today.

"Propose a marriage? Who are you proposing for?"

"Of course it's the prince."

"Who do you want to marry?"

When asking this question, Su Nuan felt for a moment that the person Prince Guang'an wanted to marry was her, and she was shocked. Then her brain suddenly worked well. The only person in the Prince's Mansion who could be asked to marry by Prince Guang'an was Leng Yue.

As expected, the princess replied calmly, "It's Miss Lengyue. Ever since the prince escorted Miss Lengyue to the imperial city, he has been thinking about her. As the princess, I should relieve the prince's worries. Although being a concubine is unfair to Miss Lengyue, Concubine Xia also knows that everyone in this palace who has been favored by the prince is treated as a master. If Miss Lengyue marries here, she will never suffer any grievances."

"Were all the concubines of the prince sought by the princess on his behalf?"

Princess Guang'an seemed to have not expected Su Nuan to ask such a question. She was slightly stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Most of them were arranged by me, and some took the initiative to come to propose marriage."

Su Nuan was stunned. She didn't expect that peacock flowers were so popular in the market.

"Princess, do you really want to ask Leng Yue to marry you?"

Princess Guang'an nodded.

"If you really want to marry me, I can't make the decision on this matter. Although Leng Yue lives in the Prince's Mansion, she is just staying there temporarily. She is not from the Prince's Mansion, so I can't control her marriage."

Leng Yue wanted to use Prince Guang'an, and Prince Guang'an wanted Leng Yue the same way. It didn't matter if the two of them got together with their own ulterior motives, but Su Nuan couldn't let Leng Yue marry out of the Prince's Mansion. If that happened, the Prince's Mansion would be held responsible. If Leng Yue really wanted to marry out of the Prince's Mansion, then it should be the Crown Princess who would handle the matter, and she, an outsider, would not step forward.

After hearing Su Nuan's words, Princess Guang'an frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "It's me who is abrupt. This matter really shouldn't be discussed with Concubine Xia. If you really need to talk to someone, you should talk to the Crown Princess."

"That's the truth." Su Nuan agreed.

"Then when I feel better, I will go to Xun Mansion to visit the future Crown Princess and listen to her opinion."

Su Nuan felt that Princess Guang'an had some ill intentions when she said this.

There was no other topic, so Su Nuan stood up and said goodbye.

Here, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Prince Guang'an were talking about something, and both of them seemed unhappy.

When Su Nuan came to find Mu Yunting, she saw that Mu Yunting's face was ashen.

Although she had seen Mu Yunting angry many times, Su Nuan could tell which one was sincere. For example, when Dong Youning framed her, the prince's concubine, Mu Yunting was angry, but that kind of anger would pass as long as someone received the due punishment, and it was not sincere.

But the look on his face clearly showed that he was furious.

What made His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so angry with his uncle? It couldn't be because of Xun Zheng, right? It was an undeniable fact that Prince Guang'an was thinking about Xun Zheng, but it would be a bit too much if he angered the Crown Prince because of Xun Zheng.

Seeing Su Nuan coming to find him, Mu Yunting didn't even say hello to Prince Guang'an, and just pulled Su Nuan out.

Su Nuan only had time to glance at Prince Guang'an, who had his eyes slightly narrowed, and his gloomy look made her feel uncomfortable.

"Your Highness, what did Prince Guang'an do to make you so angry?"

As soon as she sat down in the carriage, Su Nuan asked.

"He doesn't know what's good for him."

Mu Yunting said angrily.

Is the answer so general? Su Nuan wanted to hear what was going on, but saw that Mu Yunting had no intention of continuing.

So Su Nuan thought hard about how to get Mu Yunting to continue speaking, but before she could figure out what to say, Mu Yunting opened his mouth.

"Your driver is in the hands of the Ninth Prince. I'm afraid he's in great danger."

Mu Yunting's ninth uncle is Prince Guang'an. Su Nuan had never heard Mu Yunting call him that before. At first, she was a little confused. After she figured out that the ninth uncle was Prince Guang'an, she said hurriedly, "How could it be? Princess Guang'an said he ran away!"

Mu Yunting's livid face revealed an indescribable expression, and he said faintly, "Are you anxious now?"

Su Nuan has been with Ye Xiaobai for quite some time, and they have experienced life and death together. Although Ye Xiaobai has secrets, he has never done anything to hurt herself. When she heard that he was in danger, she was really anxious, so she didn't notice Mu Yunting's sour tone at all.

"Why did he say the person had escaped after he captured him? Was he afraid that I would go and ask for him back? No, he must have known that Xiaobai was mine, and it would be more advantageous for him to threaten me with Xiaobai or use Xiaobai to give me a heavy blow. Why did he kill him secretly?"

According to Su Nuan's idea, if Prince Guang'an caught Ye Xiaobai, he should use this incident to attack her. If the incident became big enough, maybe the emperor would order her to be demoted from the prince's concubine.

Mu Yunting's face looked even uglier than before. He pursed his lips and said nothing.

"Why don't you speak?"

Su Nuan leaned her head close to Mu Yunting and looked at him eagerly, hoping that he would speak.

A pair of big eyes blinked in front of him, making Mu Yunting's heart flutter. If the atmosphere was not wrong, he would have wanted to go up and kiss the person in front of him.

"The Ninth Prince has been possessed by a demon. He refuses to tell me the truth. The person is definitely in his hands. He won't kill him for now. As for when he will die, it all depends on whether your driver is strong enough."

Su Nuan turned Mu Yunting's words over in her mind for a few times before she asked, "What information does Prince Guang'an want to dig out from Xiaobai?"

Mu Yunting looked at her for a long time before he said calmly, "Are you willing to tell me your secret now?"
