The moon and stars were sparse, and on the official road outside the city, four people looked at each other.
In an already peaceful night, at this moment, because of Shen Youwei's question, the atmosphere at the scene became even weirder.
On the side, Su Cheng heard his wife directly asking Liu Changfeng what to do next, and couldn't help but touch his forehead secretly.
Madam, madam, you really don’t want to pick up any of the pots.
Asking Liu Changfeng at this time does not mean that you are forcing him to express his position.
Although Liu Changfeng was a captain with a thousand soldiers under his command, the prefect was one level higher than him and was still in charge of him.
At this moment, what can you ask Liu Changfeng to do?
Forced?
That's definitely not possible. After all, this is the prefect's daughter.
give up?
Judging from the way these two people are flirting with each other now, it's probably difficult.
Just when Su Cheng was sweating for Liu Changfeng, Yang Lingxuan took over the topic: "Mrs. Su, this is my own business, and I want Changfeng to be involved."
"I made it clear to Changfeng just now that I can just go back and handle it alone. He can handle the construction of the barracks here with peace of mind."
"I have already seen the barracks. They will be built in the next few days. Then I will have to arrange for the soldiers to move in."
Although Yang Lingxuan said this, even Shen Youwei could see a look of reluctance on her face.
Su Cheng didn't say much about this, after all, this matter actually didn't have much to do with him.
Moreover, it involves the daughter of the prefect and the son of the chief envoy. These are all high-ranking officials in the court, and they are not something that he, a small county magistrate, can control.
Although it was a pity that Yang Lingxuan and Liu Changfeng could not be together, at this time, it was the parents who made the decision regarding marriage, and Su Cheng had no choice.
However, Shen Youwei did not agree!
"Ms. Yang, what do you mean by this? Do you really want to marry someone you don't like?"
Shen Youwei pursed her lips, showing a look of indignation.
Such a good woman like Miss Yang is in love with Liu Changfeng. It is really a pity not to be together!
If there is a chance, I must help Miss Yang.
But Yang Lingxuan smiled bitterly: "My father cannot shirk this matter, and I cannot disobey your father's orders. I can only obey your father's arrangements."
"Even Mrs. Su, before marrying Mr. Su, she had never met her, let alone liked her."
These words... made Shen Youwei unable to accept them.
Shen Youwei could only twitch the corner of her mouth and raise her head to pretend to be powerful: "I... I had heard my husband's name a long time ago and I married him because I thought he would make a lot of achievements in the future."
Even Shen Youwei herself didn't believe what she said.
Su Cheng really couldn't stand it and took the initiative to take over the topic: "Okay, madam, this matter is a private matter after all, and we can't interfere so much."
"Why can't you care so much!"
Shen Youwei snorted coldly and glared at Su Cheng: "Let me tell you, Miss Yang is my friend. I can't just watch her jump into the fire pit."
After talking about Su Cheng, Shen Youwei pointed the finger at Liu Changfeng again: "And you, are you a man?"
Liu Changfeng: "..."
What does it have to do with yourself?
It was obviously Miss Yang's decision, so could I still snatch Miss Yang away?
"Mrs. Su, there are some things that are beyond my control."
Liu Changfeng could only sigh, his face full of helplessness.
Who doesn't want to be with his lover?
But everything went counterproductive, as many things in this world were beyond their control.
Besides, the person who is going to marry Miss Yang this time is the son of the chief envoy, and he is a high-ranking official of the second rank.
He is just a captain, and he may be stabbed to death by the other party at any time with just a finger!
He is not afraid of death, but he is afraid that if he takes any action, he may implicate Miss Yang.
He was a rough man and it was not a pity to die, but he did not want Miss Yang to suffer because of him.
But Shen Youwei doesn’t care what your reasons are!
Upon hearing Liu Changfeng's words, he immediately rolled his eyes in anger.
"What do you mean you can't make the decision?"
"If you don't fight for it, how do you know you can't make the decision?"
Shen Youwei snorted coldly: "For someone as gentle as Miss Yang, do you really have the heart to let her marry another man?"
"You said you are the same. You are a great man. How come you don't even have this bit of courage?"
"I..." Liu Changfeng was speechless.
I wanted to defend myself, but I also felt that what Shen Youwei said was reasonable.
Since I like Miss Yang, why can't I go for it?
Yang Lingxuan could see Liu Changfeng's embarrassment, and suddenly chuckled, reaching out to hold his hand.
Liu Changfeng felt the tenderness in his hands and couldn't help but look up at Yang Lingxuan.
The two looked at each other, and the tenderness in their eyes overflowed.
"Actually, I can understand Changfeng's current situation, and this is why I won't let Changfeng go back with me."
Yang Lingxuan suddenly took a deep breath: "Thank you, Mr. Su. Mrs. Su can come over tonight, so it can be regarded as our official farewell."
Yang Lingxuan didn't want to drag this matter out any longer, as it would only make her and Liu Changfeng suffer forever.
Since it cannot be reversed, it can only go with the flow.
However, Yang Lingxuan's attitude made Shen Youwei very dissatisfied.
"What, you two obviously like each other, why can't you be together!"
Shen Youwei didn't understand or understand, so she could only turn her head to look at her husband.
"Ms. sir, is there any way you can help them?"
Su Cheng looked at the anxious lady, and then at Liu Changfeng and Yang Lingxuan who were reluctant to leave, feeling a little shaken in his heart.
He originally thought that it would be better to do less than to do more, not to mention that this was someone else's marriage, and it was not easy for him as an outsider to make irresponsible remarks.
But now his wife is anxious and has begged him. In addition, Yang Lingxuan and Liu Changfeng can be considered friends, so he can't really just sit back and watch.
He reached out and patted Shen Youwei's shoulder to signal Shen Youwei not to be sad, and then he turned to look at Liu Changfeng.
"Mr. Liu Qian, I shouldn't have intervened in this matter originally, but we have a close relationship after all. My wife and Miss Yang are also friends."
"If it is possible, do you think you should go back to Jiangzhou with Miss Yang? No matter whether the prefect will agree or not, at least you have worked hard for the relationship between the two of you."
Su Cheng's words made Liu Changfeng's eyes light up, and his originally gloomy heart seemed to have found a bright direction!
Yes, I have never tried it myself, how do I know the prefect will not agree?
Even if the prefect still refuses in the end, he has no regrets. He has tried his best for this relationship.
"Thank you, Lord Marquis, for your advice, otherwise I would have almost given up Miss Yang!"
Liu Changfeng said firmly: "This time, I want to go back with Miss Yang!"
"Changfeng..." Yang Lingxuan was a little worried.
"Lingxuan, no need to say more. If I don't dare to take this risk for you, then I don't deserve to fall in love with you!"
Liu Changfeng was categorical, even if he knew that this trip to Jiangzhou was dangerous, he would not hesitate!
When Shen Youwei heard this, she couldn't help but clapped her hands and applauded: "Well done, you look like a man now!"
"If you need help, please send someone over to notify me at any time!"
