Chapter 208 208: I am different

Because Huo Peng made an appointment with Lu Xiang today, it was not only a matter of great importance, but also because Lu Xiang was a girl whose family's reputation was important, so he kicked out all the people living in the backyard and asked them to go for a walk on the street until they had lunch. Do not come back.

  Everyone dared not raise any objections, and ran away after breakfast.

   After making sure that there was no one in the backyard, Huo Peng just sat and waited for Lu Xiang with peace of mind.

  Lu Xiangsi did not come on time.

  Huo Pengzheng instructed his son to pour tea again. Just as the tea was brewed, he heard someone knock on the door in the backyard. Ah Man ran to open the door and let Chu Jinyan, Sheng Xian and Yuan Feng in.

  Father and son looked for fame.

  The oncoming man was dressed in a black uniform, with bushy sword eyebrows flying slantingly into his temples, his whole body was surrounded by the pressure of extreme cold like a world of ice and snow, his thin lips were lightly pursed into a line, showing his heroic spirit.

  Lu Xiang got up and went to the door to greet him, saluted respectfully and said: "I have seen His Highness the Eighth Prince."

   Just as he finished speaking, he heard two "bang bang" sounds of heavy objects falling from behind Lu Xiang.

  As soon as he turned his head, he saw Huo Pengzheng and his son fell to the ground, their eyes were staring, three souls disappeared and seven souls disappeared.

   "Son, am I blind? I heard His Highness the Eighth Prince just now?" Huo Peng was holding the table leg with one hand, looking at Huo Yi with a trembling corner of his mouth.

  Huo Yi stared at the noble figure at the door with a pale face, and said with trembling lips, "Father, you heard me right."

  This kind of noble temperament, can ordinary people have it?

  The most important thing is that the third lady can't be foolish.

  My mother...

  Huo Peng and Huo Yi hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Caomin see His Highness Eighth Highness, Your Highness Jin'an."

  Chu Jinyan only listened to Ah Man's brief talk and didn't know the details. He nodded expressionlessly, told them to stand up, and then looked at Lu Xiang suspiciously.

  Lu Xiang smiled lightly: "Your Highness sit down and talk." Then he helped Huo Peng up again: "Uncle Huo, don't be nervous, Your Highness is very kind."

  Huo Peng looked quietly at Chu Jinyan from the corner of his eyes: "..."

  Miss San, are you lying to me?

  The Eighth Prince doesn't look easy to talk about.

   "I... my legs are weak, I take my time." Huo Peng said while swallowing his saliva.

   Rao is that he has made sufficient mental preparations, and he must have a high status to dare to let the third lady be so bold as a backer, but he didn't expect it to be a prince.

  No matter how high this status is, it almost scares him to death, okay?

  If his gambling house is really guarded by the Eighth Prince, he can walk sideways in the capital.

   But after regaining his senses, Huo Pengzheng also realized the real intention of the third lady asking him if he dared to take a gamble a few days ago. What can a prince want to collect news and intelligence for?

  The current sage has no crown prince.

  Thinking about it this way, Huo Pengzheng couldn't help but hold back the cold sweat on his brow again, frightened but frightened, but he knew better that this was also an opportunity to soar into the sky.

   After a long while, Huo Pengzheng and Huo Yi supported each other and stood up from the ground.

   "Quickly, serve tea to Your Highness."

  Huo Yi responded, and hurried away, the hand holding the tea was shaking non-stop.

  Sheng Xian took it from him very considerately, and put it on the table beside Chu Jinyan.

  Huo Peng said cautiously: "The tea is crude, please don't blame it, Your Highness."

  Chu Jinyan took a sip, put it down, and tried to make himself look kinder: "No, as long as Uncle Huo thinks, there will always be a chance to drink tribute tea in the future."

  When Huo Pengzheng heard this, he immediately became excited like a chicken blood.

  Father, the Eighth Prince actually called him Uncle, smoke is rising from the ancestral grave of their old Huo family.

  Lu Xiang took out three contracts he had prepared and handed them to Huo Pengzheng and Chu Jinyan: "Uncle Huo and Your Highness have a look to see if you have any questions."

  Huo Peng saw his 40% profit, and immediately waved his hands in panic: "Miss San, I... I'm just a watcher, 10% is enough."

  Being able to do things with the Eighth Prince, even if it's a 10% profit, is also the virtue of his ancestors.

  Lu Xiang didn't look at him, but turned to look at Chu Jinyan.

  Her dark eyes are like a clear pool reflecting the bright moon, Chu Jinyan's heart flutters when she sees it.

"Listen to you."

  His voice was low and mellow, and Lu Xiang's ears couldn't help but feel hot. He quickly looked away, took a pen to sign his name, and put his handprint on it.

  Chu Jinyan chuckled and did as he did.

  Then the two looked at Huo Pengzheng in unison, beckoning him to sign quickly.

  Huo Peng was at a loss and moved, and he didn't hesitate.

  The eighth prince and the third lady value him highly, and he will go through fire or water without hesitation.

Lu Xiang put away her contract, looked at Sheng Xian and Yuan Feng, and said: "Your Highness, Yuan Feng and Sheng Xian often follow you, it's too eye-catching, should you find someone unfamiliar to be in charge of the gambling house. "

   "Well, you are right, I will find someone else when I turn around."

  Sheng Xian and Yuan Feng bowed their heads silently: "..."

  What's wrong with the master's expression of "my concubine is so smart, she's right to say anything"?

  You have already arranged for Zongli to be responsible for the matchmaking, and the two of them just got to know the situation first.

  Lu Xiang looked at Yuanfeng and Shengxian, then at Chu Jinyan, and immediately understood that her proposal was superfluous: "Your Highness, forgive me, my daughter is talking too much."

  Chu Jinyan smiled lowly, his eyes overflowing with tenderness: "No, I like to hear more from you, so it shows that you care about me."

  Lu Xiang was stunned: "..."

  What made the Eighth Prince have such a crazy idea?

  Huo Peng and Huo Yi were looking at each other with horror.

  Mommy, what great secret did they hear?

  Will it be silenced?

  Lu Xiang's eyebrows twitched fiercely: "Your Highness, please be careful."

   Didn't you see that the father and son are about to be scared to death?

  She will also be fainted by fright.

  Chu Jinyan glanced lazily at Huo Pengzheng and Huo Yi. They both trembled suddenly and covered their ears one after another, but their two pairs of four eyes were as big as copper bells.

   "Am I wrong? If you don't care about me, why do you do so many things for me, give it away to people and give it to the gambling house, and plan everything for me." He took it for granted.

   "Your Highness, Concubine Shu hates me to the bone, and the second prince joined forces with Liu Anyao to plot against me. Looking at the court, the only one who can compete with it is you, Your Highness. I want to save my life, so you can't lose, Your Highness."

  She has to hug her thigh.

   Then he trampled the second prince and concubine Shu under their feet and rubbed them against each other.

   "There's no need to find a reason. There are so many fathers and sons. If you don't rely on others, the first thing you think of is me, which means that I am different."

  Lu Xiang was kneeling by his logic.

   "Your Highness, I only know you well."

  She wanted to find another prince, but there was no chance?

   What's more, Chu Jinyan is still the emperor's favorite son. If it wasn't for that, she wouldn't have bothered to save him from the muddy water. From the moment she decided to save Chu Jinyan, Lu Xiang went there with the intention of hugging her thigh.

  But she hasn't hugged her thigh seriously, so why did she go astray?
