The face of the man in black was uniform, without a hint of sadness or joy. The man in the lead lifted up a tile and looked down. The woman was lying on a couch on her side.

The Fourth Prince made a copy with a pen.

The fourth prince had already thrown down his brush, grabbed his treasured sword from the side, and spun around without even looking at the half-drawn painting of a naked girl.

"Capture the Fourth Prince! If he runs away, we're all going to raise our heads and look for Sacred Yan!" The man in black immediately gave the order as soon as he saw that the situation wasn't good.

The man in black followed closely behind, and in a moment, he had caught up to Zuo Wanfan and surrounded him.

When Zuo Wanfan saw this scene, he stood on the tree branch and looked at the leader in black: "Leng Feng, you've come too. It seems that brother Huang has invested quite a bit this time, but I'd advise you to leave quickly and tell brother Sheng Yue that there's no way of getting married."

"Then I'm sorry!" Leng Feng waved at his subordinates, "Attack!"

Zuo Ruping was stunned for a moment. The three of them had already gotten close to her. He used the hilt of his sword to push them back and looked coldly at Leng Feng, "Leng Feng, do you want to commit an offense?"

The corner of Leng Feng's mouth twitched. "The emperor's orders are difficult. This subordinate would advise you to follow me back to the capital, lest you stir up too much trouble." As soon as he said that, he stomped his feet and appeared in front of Zuo Hongfan.

Zuo Rulan Fan's martial arts were on par with Leng Feng's. If it were just Leng Feng alone, Zuo Rulan Fan would not be afraid, but with the added help of these meticulous selection and the assistance of his guards, he would only end up losing if he fought head on. He made up his mind and decided to choose the thirty-six moves.

Leng Feng was not a good person to stand on, so he naturally knew what Zuo Lifan was thinking. He spun around, and as he fought, he said to his subordinates behind him, "Everyone forward, no need to worry about morals. Capture them and finish the job."

Zuo Rulan Fan's stern face looked at the fire ejected out by Coldwind, and he said with a stern and angry tone, "Coldwind, get out of the way."

Leng Feng did not say anything, but used the treasured sword in his hand to give a response. Because of Leng Feng's addition, Zuo Ran Fan could not retreat, and was exhausted after hundreds of moves. The rest of the dozen or so people went on a round of battle to tightly trap Zuo Lifan for an hour. Zuo Lifan was caught, and Leng Feng looked apologetically at Zuo Lifan as he said to the people behind him, "The mysterious silk tied up the Fourth Prince."

"You dare?"

"What is the prince's?"

Two different voices, but one thing. Leng Feng expressionlessly looked at Zuo Ruping's icy face and said, "Hurry up and bring it over. If you wait for the prince to run away, can you guys bear the responsibility?"

It was the first time in his life that he had been thrown into a horse carriage, tied up by all sorts of people. More than ten experts escorted him, and although they looked impressive and powerful, they were controlled and had no freedom at all. After six days of travel, they finally arrived at the capital in the evening six days later.

As soon as the Fourth Prince arrived in the capital, he was sent packing into the palace. Both the empress dowager and the emperor stood on guard.

Zuo Lifan looked at the familiar Palace of Tzu An and the culprit who brought him back … His mother and brother. He stood on the spot and watched as the servant untied the rope.

The empress dowager looked kindly at Zuo Ruping and said, "Your son has worked hard."

"Imperial Mother, why do you insist on my marriage? This son doesn't want to do so yet." Zuo Rulan Fan's tone was filled with complaint and persistence.

The emperor, Zuo Lianyi, got down from his chair and walked over to Zuo Lifan. She said warmly, "Fourth brother, you've already used this as a reason to shirk your responsibilities for a few years now. Just listen to mother obediently getting married."

The empress dowager anxiously added, "That's right, that's right."

"Mother, royal brother, I have made up my mind. I beg you, mother, to take back your orders." His voice was cold and filled with helplessness. How could he not know that his mother was a difficult woman to deal with and that he could change her with just a few words? He just did not want to give up the opportunity to convince her.

The empress dowager's face turned cold, her words sharp, her expression sorrowful. "Your son, do you want This Dowager to have no face to see your father even after she dies? You are already twenty and forty years old, and even up till now there hasn't been a single wangfei.

Zuo Rulan Fan hurried over to the empress dowager and looked at her with concern, gritting his teeth. "Imperial Mother." I... I just haven't met anyone I like yet. Queen Mother, I was in the wrong, please take my body seriously. "

"Royal Brother, just agree to this marriage. Imperial Mother is doing this for your own good."

Zuo Rulan Fan looked at the emperor and then at the empress dowager, his brows furrowed and he didn't say anything for a long time.

"My son, are you still unwilling?" Her Majesty squeezed out two drops of tears, unable to see that the tears on her face caused her heart to ache.

"Imperial Mother, don't force me!" He wanted to learn his royal father's way of life after meeting his mother. Even if he had to shoulder the slander of the world, his royal father would still only love his mother. He longed for that kind of life, the kind of life where he could have a hand in it with his mother.

"This Dowager is forcing you! Five years ago, you said that you don't want to find a woman you like, and without saying a word, I followed your wishes. Five years have passed, and you only know how to have fun, can't you just follow your royal brother and get married and reproduce to the royal family? "

The emperor's left hand lightly patted the empress dowager's shoulder. He turned his head and cast a sidelong glance at Zuo Rulan Fan before shifting his gaze to the empress dowager. He said in a filial tone, "Imperial Mother, calm down. Imperial Brother will understand." He turned his head to Zuo Lifan and said, "Right, little brother?"

The empress dowager stole a glance at Zuo Lifan, and when she saw him hesitating, a sly light flashed in her eyes. She could no longer catch hold of him, and her expression changed to one of grief. "Ah, late emperor, why didn't you leave with This Dowager? You're angry with this unfilial son of yours!" Usually, the children of a hundred families are filial, but why is my life so bitter?

"Muhou, don't cry anymore. I'll agree, but I have a request. If muhou agrees, then I'll go and get married." Zuo Rulan had already made up her mind. How could he compromise so easily? Even if it was the last possibility, he still wanted to give it a try.

The empress dowager's nose cracked as she smiled. "Imperial Mother will agree to your terms. Your son, hurry and speak."

"My princess must be proficient in all kinds of calligraphy and calligraphy. If the prime minister can win the top three amongst all the daughters of princes and officials, I will marry her. If mother can't forgive me for not agreeing, then mother will have to take back your orders." He was born with the aura of a king, and his demeanor was as sacred and inviolable as that of a god.

The empress dowager readily agreed.

When Zuo Rulan saw that the empress dowager had agreed, she secretly rejoiced in her heart. He seemed slightly angry on the surface as he nodded and said, "Imperial Mother, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."

"Wait!"

Zuo Rulan Fan stopped and turned back to look at the empress dowager, his face a little stiff. "Imperial Mother, you're not going to go back on your word, are you?"

The empress dowager smiled. "When did I break my word? Child, I told you that if you dare to regret running away, you should be listed as wanted throughout the country. Your road to wealth will also be blocked, so you might not care about that, but don't forget that those people who are related to you aren't as good as you are."

Zuo Rulan Fan said in embarrassment: "Hehe, Queen Mother really knows how to joke. Your son has left. " The empress dowager waved her hand, and Zuo Rulan Fan left with large strides.

Only when he had disappeared from her line of sight did he turn his gaze towards the empress dowager who seemed completely fine. He asked curiously, "Imperial Mother, just like that, you agreed to my younger brother's request. Although that Prime Minister's daughter is a lady from a noble family, she might not be proficient in every single aspect. Don't you worry?"
