After Mrs. Jiang passed away, she did not dare to take the initiative to terminate the engagement. After all, the deceased was the most important.
If they take the initiative to break off their engagement, they will definitely be gossiped about.
Therefore, we can only put it off again and again, thinking about finding an opportunity to break off the engagement, so we have put it off until now.
If in the past, the Murong family took the initiative to break off the engagement, she would have agreed without hesitation.
Even, he will be so happy that he will fly.
However, today is different from the past.
Ye Jinming fell in love with a male seductress, so he was destined to miss that position. Who would be willing to marry such a person?
At least, not those girls from powerful families.
Although Murong Jiang Xu was not favored, she was the legitimate daughter of the General's Mansion, and her family background and identity were there. Moreover, since Murong Feng could take Jiang Xu to take the initiative to break off the engagement, it may not necessarily mean that she really did not love Murong Jiang Xu.
In the past, she looked down on Murong Jiang Xu because of his poor talent, but now, she suddenly felt that it would be nice to have less talent.
This makes it easier to control.
Although Jiang Xu didn't know what Concubine Ning was thinking, he could roughly guess what she was thinking.
However, Jiang Xu remained expressionless.
Concubine Ning saw that Jiang Xu had the same expression from beginning to end, and she was a little suspicious, whether this person had lost his soul and turned into a fool.
So, Concubine Ning tentatively called Jiang Xu, "Xuxu?"
Jiang Xu turned his head and looked at Concubine Ning.
Concubine Ning: "I just spoke, were you listening?"
Jiang Xu nodded, "Yes."
"Then... what do you mean? Do you want to think about the engagement again?" Concubine Ning looked at Jiang Xu and said.
Jiang Xu: "Don't think about it."
"...Do you want to stop thinking about it?" Concubine Ning said, holding Jiang Xu's hand again, "The marriage was decided between me and your mother. This is also your mother's last wish. You can't bear to let her last wish Failed?"
Jiang Xu remained calm: "If my mother knew that the third prince liked men, she would definitely change her last wish."
Concubine Ning: "..."
Over there, Murong Feng was being pulled by the emperor to chat.
Originally, he was a little worried whether Jiang Xu would fall for Concubine Ning, but when he heard her words, Murong Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, another doubt came to my mind.
Is this really his cowardly and timid good-for-nothing daughter?
Seeing that Jiang Xu did not follow Concubine Ning, Murong Feng began to continue chatting with the emperor with confidence.
Concubine Ning was a little crazy.
If she wasn't still in the imperial study room, with Murong Feng and the emperor sitting next to her, she really wanted to bully others and slap this girl twice.
She was a concubine after all, and it didn't matter if this little girl didn't flatter her. She didn't even have the slightest respect for her.
Not knowing what Concubine Ning was thinking, seeing that Concubine Ning was speechless, Jiang Xu continued to sit in a daze.
But I was a little dissatisfied, thinking why the third prince didn't come yet?
Because of Jiang Xu's attitude, Concubine Ning was angry. She was afraid that she would get angry on the spot, so she had to shut up temporarily and sit down to adjust her emotions.
I don’t know how much time passed before the steward’s voice sounded outside the door, “Your Majesty, the Third Highness is here.”
Immediately afterwards, there was the emperor's angry voice, "Let him in!"
There was much less anger than before, but the anger could still be heard.
Concubine Ning felt her heart tightening after hearing this.
After all, Concubine Ning couldn't hold it back. Before Ye Jinming walked into the imperial study, Concubine Ning approached Jiang Xu and lowered her voice and said, "I heard that your third sister was keeping dozens of men at night. This matter has already happened." Now that word has spread, do you think anyone will be willing to marry the young lady from your general’s palace?”
"By marrying my son, you can at least be a princess. If you don't marry... think about it carefully."
Jiang Xu: "Is Concubine Ning threatening me?"
Concubine Ning's voice was very low, only Jiang Xu and her could hear it, but Jiang Xu's voice was not quiet, and both the emperor and Murong Feng heard it.
Therefore, as soon as Jiang Xu's words came out, the emperor and Murong Feng both turned their heads and looked at Jiang Xu.
Good night
