LOL! Is this scumbag waiting for the New Year to divorce?

Chapter 118 9 Lord Battle King

Lu Zhan took another sip of tea and asked leisurely, "Prince? Which prince?"

The butler replied in a low voice: "Nine Masters, the War King!"

Hearing this, Lu Zhan stood up from his stool and asked nervously, "Who? You mean Master Jiu?"

The butler nodded and gave him a positive answer.

Lu Zhan's legs suddenly felt weak and he quickly ran out of the house.

As he ran, he complained, "You bastard, why didn't you tell me earlier that Master Jiu was coming? I could have gone to greet him in person."

Only the butler with a look of aggrieved face was left behind. He said that it was the master who was drinking tea leisurely there.

Lu Zhan hurried and finally met Mu Hansu outside the second gate.

He quickly lifted his robe and knelt down, saying, "Your humble servant greets His Majesty. I am sorry that I failed to welcome you in person. Please forgive me."

Mu Hansu just stared at Lu Zhan who was kneeling on the ground for a while, and Lu Zhan was sweating profusely.

The main reason was that Mu Hansu came suddenly, and he himself hadn’t figured out the reason for coming to the Lu family.

Just when Lu Zhan was about to collapse, Mu Hansu said, "Master Lu, there is no need to be polite. Get up."

Only then did Lu Zhan tremble and climb up from the ground.

Mu Hansu glanced at him and frowned secretly. Why was he so scary? Or was it because the weather was too hot? Why was Lu Zhan sweating profusely?

But thinking that Lu Zhan was Lu Chenshuang's biological father after all, he said, "I am sorry for coming here and disturbing Lord Lu. I hope Lord Lu will not blame me."

Lu Zhan quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am very sorry for what you said. It is my honor to have you here."

After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation to Mu Hansu.

Lu Chenshuang had just finished chatting with Lin, when Lin said to Lu Chenshuang, "Shuang'er, your mother has asked someone to clean up the yard for you.

Why don't you go with mom to see if you like it."

After all, this was Lin's kindness, and Lu Chenshuang couldn't refuse, so she agreed.

Before they left the room, a little maid hurried into the yard and whispered something in Shaoyao's ear.

When Shaoyao heard this, her face changed and she hurried into the house.

Lin had already seen the little maid outside the courtyard. She was her spy in the mansion, and she would report any news as soon as she heard it.

Lin saw Shaoyao was a little nervous and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Shaoyao replied, "It's the War King who's here. He's talking to the master in the study."

Lin was also quite surprised when she heard about the King of War. Although Lu Zhan's colleagues would occasionally come to visit during this period, there had never been someone as respected as the King of War.

Everyone in Dalin Kingdom knows that the War Prince Mu Hansu is second only to the emperor. Even if he wants to become the emperor, it would be easy for him to do so.

Seeing that Lin was a little nervous, Lu Chenshuang said to comfort her, "Mom, you don't have to be so nervous.

Mu Hansu is a nice person, although he often has a sullen face. I guess he just doesn’t like to laugh.

It’s not like what the outside world has rumored.”

People outside said that Mu Hansu killed people like crazy, was cold-blooded and ruthless, and could stop children from crying at night.

Lu Chenshuang felt wronged for him, it was obvious that his face was hateful to both humans and gods.

When Lin heard Lu Chenshuang say this, she felt a little relieved from the tension in her heart.

But she still opened her mouth to correct him, "Shuang'er, mother knows that you know the prince, but you must never address the prince by his name in public.

If someone with ulterior motives heard this, it would cause trouble.”

In fact, as long as Mu Hansu doesn't pursue it, no one will.

However, Lu Chenshuang also nodded in agreement. He was a prince, so she still had to observe the proper respect and inferiority.

Lin then said to Shaoyao, "Go ask the master if the prince needs to keep some food for him.

Also, let the small kitchen make the refreshments more exquisite.”

Upon hearing this, Shaoyao quickly agreed and hurried out.

As for Lu Zhan, he still had no idea why Mu Hansu came to see him today.

If it is for official business, there is currently no need for the Ministry of Revenue and the military camp to be combined.

The only thing that was a problem was the supply of grain and fodder, but that had already been finalized before he took office as the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.

If it was a private matter, he and Mu Hansu had never had much of a relationship.

Lu Zhan didn't think that Mu Hansu was trying to win him over for any reason.

Because if he said ten sentences now, Mu Hansu might not be able to reply to one sentence. He drank a lot of tea.

But he was afraid that if he didn't speak, the conversation would become awkward, which made Lu Zhan tremble with fear.

Finally, Mu Hansu asked, "I heard that the eldest lady returned home today?"

Lu Zhan cried out when he heard that. Mu Hansu looked over and Lu Zhan quickly shut his mouth.

Then he quickly organized his thoughts and thought that the "eldest lady" Mu Hansu mentioned should be Lu Chenshuang.

Thinking of the good relationship between Lu Chenshuang and the emperor and the prince, he felt relieved.

But he didn’t know whether Lu Chenshuang had returned home today.

Just when Lu Zhan didn't know how to answer, Shaoyao came in with some snacks.

Lu Zhan asked as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Shaoyao, is the young lady back today?"

Shaoyao knelt down and bowed, saying, "The master is back. Madam sent a message saying that she missed the young lady, so the young lady is back.

Now he is in the lady's yard."

Hearing this, Lu Zhan's mind suddenly twitched and he said, "Go tell your eldest lady that the prince is here and ask her to come over to pay her respects."

Lu Zhan regretted saying this, Lu Chenshuang was a boudoir girl after all. Although they were divorced, she would still have to get married in the future.

No matter how noble Mu Hansu's status is, he is still a foreigner.

And he couldn't take back what he said in front of Mu Hansu.

Lu Zhan actually hoped that Mu Hansu could stop him, but unfortunately Mu Hansu just sat there motionless.

Lu Zhan didn’t know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Mu Hansu’s mood seemed to be much better.

Upon hearing this, Shaoyao did not dare to delay and ran to find Lu Chenshuang.

Accompanied by Lin, Lu Chenshuang was looking at the yard that Lin had prepared for her.

You can tell it was prepared with care, and the utensils and ornaments inside were carefully selected.

And there are many things in it that the original owner likes.

Lin was watching Lu Chenshuang's actions from the side, feeling a little uneasy, fearing that Lu Chenshuang would not like it.

After reading it, Lu Chenshuang smiled and said, "Thank you, mother. You really put a lot of effort into it. Many things in it are tailored to my preferences."

Lin heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that, "As long as Shuang'er likes it. Would you like to stay at home today?"

Lu Chenshuang felt a little embarrassed when she heard this. She really didn't want to live in the Lu family, but seeing the expectation in Lin's eyes, she couldn't refuse.

Just when Lu Chenshuang was about to reluctantly accept the offer, Shaoyao ran in and said, "Madam, Miss. The master asked Miss to go to the study to pay her respects to the prince."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Lin's face when she heard this, while Lu Chenshuang breathed a sigh of relief.
