"Then... Ninth Princess! " Lu Feng thought for a moment before replying.
Amongst the three princesses, only the ninth princess had left a deep impression in his mind. Although she often put him in danger, it wasn't her fault.
Furthermore, there was another reason why Lu Feng chose the Ninth Princess, and that was because she was still young.
As for getting married in the future, this Lu Feng had never thought of it. Agreeing to have this engagement with Qin Tianzhu right now was also something that he had no other choice.
"Lan?"
When Qin Tianzhu heard that Lu Feng had chosen his best daughter, he was startled for a moment, but immediately understood why was chosen.
"Alright, then Lan'er will do!" Qin Tianzhu nodded slightly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your consent!"
Seeing that Qin Tianzhu did not continue forcing him, Lu Feng sincerely expressed his thanks, because if the other party were to insist on marrying the Ninth Princess right now, then there was no way for him to refuse.
Of course, Lu Feng was very clear in his heart that the reason Qin Tianzhu underwent such a huge change was definitely because he was currently a Battle Spiritual Talisman Master.
Based on Lu Feng's current situation, he could be considered a genius amongst geniuses, and he was also a Battle Spiritual Talisman Master, so his future achievements were definitely immeasurable.
Qin Tianzhu still wanted to maintain a friendly relationship with Lu Feng, so he couldn't force her too much.
Just like this, after chatting for a bit, the three of them left the secret room, and not long after, Qin Feng and the rest were announced to be in the main hall.
"Lu Feng!"
When Qin Feng saw the long-lost Lu Feng actually appear atop the great hall, and even stand by Qin Tianzhu's side, he was both excited and shocked at the same time.
It had to be known that no one could stand by Qin Tianzhu's side, especially in this great hall, where even princes did not have such authority.
But now that Lu Feng was standing beside Qin Tianzhu, Qin Feng and the others were guessing who he was.
"Everyone!"
Hearing the discussions in the hall, Qin Tianzhu spoke out.
After he spoke, the sounds of discussion in the hall instantly disappeared, and the entire hall immediately quietened down.
"The reason why I gathered everyone here today is to announce something. Maybe some of you have already guessed it, that's right, Lu Feng already told this duke of his choice!" Qin Tianzhu swept his gaze across the people in the hall, and finally stopped on Qin Lan's body.
"Lan, come here!" Qin Tianzhu waved at Qin Lan and said.
"Me?"
Qin Lan was startled, but since Father told her to go, then she naturally did not dare to disobey, and only saw her jogging over to Qin Tianzhu.
"Father, you asked me to come here because …" Qin Lan glanced at Lu Feng, then asked in puzzlement.
"Everyone!"
However, Qin Tianzhu did not reply to Qin Lan. Instead, he stood up from the throne, held Lu Feng's hand with one hand and Qin Lan's hand with the other, and then folded his hands together in front of everyone.
"I will betroth Lan'er to Lu Feng now. There will be a grand engagement ceremony in half a month, and the whole country will be celebrating together!" Qin Tianzhu announced.
"Congratulations your majesty! Congratulations your majesty!"
"Congratulations, Ninth Princess! Congratulations, Ninth Princess!"
"Congratulations, Prince Consort!"
Just as Qin Tianzhu finished speaking, congratulatory words filled the hall one after another.
Of course, there were those who were happy, while there were others who were sad. On the side of the palace, a pair of eyes stared at Lu Feng with resentment, as though they wanted to swallow him whole.
"Lu Feng!"
Hearing everyone's congratulations, Qin Lan felt as if she was dreaming. That's right, she never thought that Lu Feng would choose her, so she had never been mentally prepared for it.
Just like that, not long after the announcement of the results, everyone left the hall, leaving Lu Feng and Qin Lan behind.
"Father, you aren't joking with me, right?" Even after everyone had left, Qin Lan still could not believe what had just happened.
"Lan'er, I have something to confess to you. In half a month, you and Lu Feng will first be engaged, and as for whether or not we can be together in the future, this Father will not care!" Qin Tianzhu said.
"Engagement?"
Qin Lan was startled, she did not understand what Qin Tianzhu meant. Didn't they say that they were going to get married, why did they change their engagement?
"Ninth Princess, I'm sorry. It happened like this, I …" Lu Feng, who was standing at the side, explained.
"Lu Feng, you …"
After hearing Lu Feng's explanation, Qin Lan's face revealed a trace of anger, it turned out that even if it was an engagement, it was only an explanation for everyone.
"Ninth Princess, two people without love can only hurt two people together, you should have your own happiness!" Lu Feng said.
"Happiness?"
Qin Lan could not help but laugh: "Lu Feng, you speak so easily. Since the Father has already announced it, then I'm afraid it won't be long before the entire Great Qin Dynasty knows about this matter. How do you expect me to have my own happiness?"
"This …"
Regarding this point, Lu Feng had considered it before. A girl's reputation was very important, but now that the other party had already betrothed him openly, and if he did not marry her in the future, it would definitely be bad for her.
"Ninth Princess, when you're twenty, if you still haven't found a suitable person, I'll come back to marry you!" Lu Feng said.
Since all of this was related to him, then Lu Feng would not be an irresponsible person. Now that Qin Lan was only twelve years old, to twenty years old, he had eight years of time.
Although eight years might not be a long time, it was not a short time either. Maybe when the time came, others would forget this point, or perhaps Qin Lan had found a happiness that belonged to him?
If that was the case, then that would naturally be the best result. But if Qin Lan was still alone eight years later, or if he was restricted by the marriage agreement, then Lu Feng would naturally comply with it and return to marry her.
"Alright, Lu Feng, I hope you will abide by this agreement for eight years." Qin Lan agreed and nodded her head, and then she did not stay in the hall for long and quickly left.
"Lu Feng, I'm sorry, I spoiled my daughter!" Looking at Qin Lan's leaving figure, Qin Tianzhu apologized to Lu Feng.
"Your Majesty, this is the promise Lu Feng made to the Ninth Princess. If the agreement of eight years arrives, the Ninth Princess has yet to find the person she belongs to. At that time, if she's willing to marry me, I'll marry her!" Lu Feng said in all seriousness.
"Alright, Lu Feng, I really didn't misjudge you!" Hearing Lu Feng's guarantee, Qin Tianzhu naturally felt very happy in his heart. Actually, he also wanted the two of them to have a good ending.
Just like this, after chatting for a bit longer, Lu Feng left the great hall.
"Shi Fu!"
After Lu Feng left, Qin Tianzhu instructed Shi Fu who was beside him: "Write a few invitation cards. I want the engagement ceremony to be held half a month from now to be grand!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Shi Fu lightly nodded his head, and he naturally understood the other party's intention for doing so.
"Lu Feng, Fifth Prince wants you to go over!"
Just as Lu Feng reached the entrance of the palace, a black figure appeared in front of him as fast as lightning.
Seeing this person, Lu Feng frowned, it was obvious that he did not sense anyone waiting nearby.
"Alright, lead the way!"
After pondering for a moment, Lu Feng nodded his head and agreed. He had already guessed the reason why Qin Hao was looking for him.
Of course, ever since Lu Feng made his choice, he had also expected that the other party would come looking for him. It was just that he did not expect them to be so anxious, sending people to specifically wait for him at the entrance of the palace.
"This way please!"
Hei Ye said softly, then led the way for Lu Feng.
After walking for around 10 minutes, Lu Feng was led to a relatively remote place by the dark night. If this place wasn't visited by someone, then he might not even be able to find it.
"I never thought that there would be such a mysterious place in this palace!" Lu Feng muttered in his heart, and then continued to move forward.
After a minute or two, Lu Feng finally saw Qin Hao, who was sitting by the river alone.
"Fifth Prince, we have arrived!" The dark night reported to Qin Hao whose back was facing away from him.
"Alright, you can go now. I'll call for you if you need anything!" Qin Hao said without turning his head back.
"Yes, Fifth Prince!"
Hei Ye replied and quickly retreated.
"Lu Feng, come over!"
After the dark night had left, Qin Hao's voice once again rang out.
"I wonder what orders Fifth Prince has for me to be here?" Lu Feng looked around with vigilance.
This place was very remote. If someone were to ambush here, he wouldn't be able to call for help.
Of course, with Lu Feng's current strength, even if Later Period of Spirit Gathering Stage Warriors were to ambush him nearby, he wouldn't be afraid. It was just that if he did that, he would reveal the identity of the Spiritual Talisman Master.
"Lu Feng, you are a smart person, you should have already guessed why I called you over!" Qin Hao turned and said to Lu Feng.
"If my guess is not wrong, Fifth Prince would like to ask why I did not choose the eighth princess." Lu Feng said as he walked towards Qin Hao.
"Give me an explanation!" Qin Hao said in a heavy voice.
In order to win Lu Feng over, Qin Hao had even sent his own little sister, but he never thought that the other party would actually not appreciate his kindness.
"Fifth Prince, actually, I don't have any feelings for the three princesses. I only chose the ninth princess because she's still young and can delay her for a bit." Lu Feng replied softly.
"Delay?"
Qin Hao frowned slightly, but when he thought about how there seemed to be no prince behind the Ninth Princess, he finally understood.
"Fifth Prince, didn't His Majesty already say that holding the engagement ceremony in half a month's time is only an engagement ceremony and not a wedding!" Lu Feng reminded.
After hearing this, Qin Hao nodded his head lightly. He remembered that the Father had indeed said that.
"Lu Feng, I believe your words for now, but you have to remember this, if I find out that you betrayed me, I will not be courteous to you!" Qin Hao warned.
The Qin Hao before was very courteous to Lu Feng, but now, his attitude slowly started to change.
