Chapter 147 Stay first
Chapter 147 Stay first
Lu Chaofeng was interrupted by someone outside the door when he was halfway through his words.
"My Lord, General Chen requests an audience."
"He has arrived at the gate of Beiling with his troops."
The person who came to report from outside was wearing a full set of armor and was obviously a soldier who had been in Beiling.
Ah Shun quickly emerged from the door and said, "Prince, I'll go check it out first. Please wait a moment."
He left in a hurry, with a look of regret on his face.
"I know." Lu Chaofeng waved his hand and let the soldiers go, but he turned around and continued to look at Su Chengnan.
Su Chengnan looked at his obscure gaze, coughed lightly and said, "Alright, go ahead and do your work. We'll talk about this later."
"Aren't you anxious to get Jiayi back?"
"Yes, that's right." Su Chengnan raised her eyes to meet his and blurted out without thinking, "But you didn't tell me the specific situation, nor did you express your willingness to help me. If you have any conditions, just say them openly and don't hesitate."
"I'm hesitating?" Lu Chaofeng raised his eyebrows, thinking that this was the first time he had to ask someone for help in this way.
"Three days later, you will accompany me to the Blue Spirit Country, and I will bring Jiayi back for you."
"Okay, it's a deal!"
"Why don't you ask anymore?"
"As long as you can help me bring Jiayi back, I have no objection."
"Okay, deal. You should have a good rest these two days and try to go out as little as possible. If anything happens when I'm not around, go find Ah Shun." Lu Chaofeng put his hands behind his back and clenched them into fists.
"I understand. I will definitely stay in the house to cultivate my character."
"Yeah." Lu Chaofeng raised his head, then turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait a moment." Su Chengnan ran a few steps, walked in front of him and stopped him.
"Hmm?" Lu Chaofeng was puzzled, but there was a hint of expectation flickering in his eyes.
"Lu Chaofeng, my mother and those who died from accidents and serious injuries before, I want to find a suitable place to bury them."
"Well, I've already asked someone to do it, don't worry about it."
"Thank you." Su Chengnan thanked him from the bottom of his heart, and even the posture of his greeting was very proper and beautiful.
Lu Chaofeng's eyes flashed, and he reached out to help her up. "There's no need to be so polite between you and me."
"I still have to thank you for this. I can thank you together as soon as Jia comes back, okay?" Su Chengnan smiled.
Lu Chaofeng sighed imperceptibly, "Whatever you say is fine."
He didn't stay any longer and walked away with his men in big strides.
Seeing that everyone had left, Su Linhua brought Nian Qiu in quickly from the door, looking around as she walked, carefully taking in the environment in the room.
"What are you looking around for?" Su Chengnan said unhappily.
"Why do the furnishings in Beiling's rooms have such an exotic feel? Dayong mostly uses wooden furniture, but why are the tables and chairs here either porcelain or marble?"
Su Chengnan rubbed his temples and corrected her mistake in time, "What marble?! This is obviously white marble."
"White marble?" Su Linhua was startled. She knocked on the table with her hand, then leaned over the edge to examine it herself. "Wow, this must be very valuable."
"Okay, now you've shown some promise! Our father hasn't treated us unfairly in the past. It's not like we haven't seen good things before, just in a different style."
Su Chengnan said this casually, but his eyes were actually looking out the door. Nian Qiu stood at the door with his head down, pretending not to hear anything.
Su Linhua received her reminder, put away her exaggeration, returned to her usual expression, and acted like a lady again.
"Nianqiu, go check if everyone else is settled. Have Liuzi and Chen Gang come see me."
"Yes, Miss. I will go now."
After Nian Qiu bowed, he took small steps back and walked towards the door.
Su Chengnan pinched his temple tiredly and sighed, "I don't know how Jiayi is doing. I wish I hadn't asked him to come over and ask for help! It's all my fault."
"Sister, what are you talking about?!" Su Linhua disagreed.
"At that time, no one knew whether we could escape successfully. If Jiayi hadn't come out to ask for help, I'm afraid everyone would have been very nervous and lost their fighting spirit.
"Is that so?" Su Chengnan felt a little disappointed.
"Yes, that's right." Su Linhua nodded heavily, her tone very affirmative.
In her opinion, it was really difficult for Su Chengnan to take care of such a large number of things and manage so many people in the Su family.
"You and Uncle Fu should pay more attention to Mother's burial. Nanny Han is old, and she also has to take care of the child. Please look after her."
"Yes, I know. Don't worry about it, sister. Leave it to me. I will take care of it. By then, the process will be set, and I will just remind you how to do it."
"it is good."
"Also..." Su Chengnan was really busy. She placed one hand on the table, tapping her fingers regularly as she thought carefully about what she had to do next. But halfway through her thoughts, she suddenly remembered what Lu Chaofeng had just told her.
"He said we should stay inside the room as much as possible?"
"Yeah, it seems so." Su Linhua nodded casually while chewing on beef jerky.
"Then what Lu Chaofeng meant is..."
Su Chengnan pondered for two seconds and suddenly reacted!
"Not all the people here belong to him. He's controlled by others, and even has to face constraints from many sides. That's why he wants us to keep a low profile and hopes we won't show up as much as possible."
"Probably." Su Linhua continued to take a big bite, then tilted her head to look over. "But if that's the case, then why did he take you to Lanling Country? What does he want to do?"
Su Chengnan frowned slightly, and after thinking it over, he decided to make the best of it and take it one step at a time.
At this time, Nian Qiu came back with his men.
Liuzi's legs were almost healed. He was pushing Chen Gang's wheelchair, and the others followed behind them.
"Hello, Miss Eldest and Miss Second." Several people saluted.
"I'm sorry, I just arrived and didn't give you a chance to rest before I found you all."
Liuzi smiled, showing his white teeth, and looked very energetic. "It's okay. We are all used to working. We would be unaccustomed to being idle."
"That's right!"
"Miss, if you have anything to do, just tell us to do it."
"Yes, just tell us what you want, and we'll see to it."
Several people talked at once and responded actively.
Only Chen Gang remained silent, waiting quietly for Su Chengnan to speak.
She smiled and took out her purse from her bosom. "We won't be here for long before we move on. I hope you can continue north with me."
"Going to Ningguta?"
"Yes."
Chen Gang was confused and asked directly.
"Miss, why do you have to go to Ningguta?"
"First, my father has given instructions. Second, the Central Plains is in chaos. Ningguta is located in an extremely remote area, which is suitable for us to develop. Are you willing?"
"us……"
