Just when Suyun was confused, he heard Su Qingchen's voice, "Third uncle, the man outside is my friend. He came with me to visit you, but something happened in the middle of the trip, so he didn't come with me before and came here now."
Looking at the housekeeper, Suyun said seriously, "In that case, let's invite him in."
The housekeeper soon brought Louzheng here. When Louzheng saw Suyun, he bowed respectfully and said, "General Su, greetings! I have admired you for a long time."
Hearing what Louzheng said, Suyun said resignedly, "You don't have to do this. Since you are a friend of Qingchen, then you are a friend of mine. You can also call me third uncle."
Louzheng looked at Suyun and nodded, "Third uncle, greetings!"
Then, Louzheng looked at Mudan and said, "I think this must be your daughter. She is more beautiful than I have expected! "
Hearing Louzheng's words, Mudan smiled and said, "Thank you for your praise, Mister. May I know your name?"
Louzheng answered seriously, "I'm Louzheng and I'm a foreigner. I came to the Diqiu City to visit Qingchen."
Hearing what Louzheng said, Mudan stared at him. She could tell at a glance that Louzheng was not from the Donghe Kingdom, or perhaps Suyun could also tell that. But she didn't expect that Louzheng would admit his identity so decisively.
Su Qingchen looked at Louzheng and then looked at Suyun and Mudan. "Louzheng is the nephew of the empress. He came to the Donghe Kingdom to marry the princess."
Hearing that, Mudan looked at Louzheng and said with a smile, "You are just the nephew of the empress. Do you think you can really marry the princess? Have you asked for fourth brother's opinion? The only princess has been brought up by the imperial concubine since she was a child. Even if you really want to marry her, you must get the consent of the imperial concubine."
Hearing what Mudan said, Su Qingchen turned to look at Louzheng, who also looked at her. "Well, it's true that I came here rashly this time, so I didn't come with those officials. Instead, I sneaked out alone. I know that I'm qualified to ask for a marriage with the princess."
Just as Louzheng was about to continue, he heard Qingyan's voice. "So, why do you come to the Donghe Kingdom? Is it because you want to tell the Beilin Kingdom the secret of the Donghe Kingdom? "
"Yanyan!" Hearing what Mudan said, Suyun scolded, "Don't talk nonsense. After all, Louzheng is also a friend of your cousin. How can you frame him like this?"
Hearing Suyun's voice, Mudan stepped aside. She looked at Suyun and said apologetically, "Dad, you're right. I'm sorry." Then she stood quietly aside, lowering her head and saying nothing.
Looking at the expression on Mudan's face, Luobing turned to look at Louzheng. She walked up to Louzheng and said with a smile, " Since you are the friend of Qingchen, we definitely welcome your arrival. But if it involves the interests of the two countries, I think you should know how to make the choice."
Hearing Luobing's words, Louzheng nodded respectfully, "I understand. Thank you for your advice, Madam."
Holding Mudan's hand, Luobing walked up to Suyun, looked at him and said with a smile, "Since this is my husband's friend, Yanyan and I will leave first. Goodbye." Then Luobing turned around and left with Mudan.
