After just three words, Lian Fangyu expressed his intention to get married. Qin quickly said: "There are just some rumors outside that Mrs. Hou wants the girl from the Chu family to be his equal wife. I don't understand. Since the madam likes Chu so much, Girl, why don’t you let the girl from the Chu family be the prince’s wife? Before the Chu family fell, there were many scholars, and the knowledge of the girls from the Chu family is completely worthy of the prince.”
Qin hit the nail on the head.
"Even Madam said it was a rumor. The rumor is not credible. There is no one in Liniang's family. It is pitiful for an orphan girl to live in the house. I treat her as my own daughter and took her out to the banquet. My intention is to let her have more friendships. My friend, I won’t be left alone and helpless, who knows where these words are coming from!”
"Don't mind Mrs. Lian, you can't separate lovers just because of a rumor!"
In comparison, there were more rumors about Lian Suisui. If they had believed the rumors, they would not have come to propose marriage today.
Saying this really left Qin with nothing to say.
Mrs. Hou glanced at Wang Jingkang proudly. He wanted to dig his own grave to marry Lian Suisui. If she didn't hurry up and make it happen, why not wait for him to come back and regret it?
It’s better to finalize the marriage as soon as possible so that no one can regret it in the future!
Mother and son each have their own plans, and Mrs. Qin is thinking of ways to refuse.
"I heard that the Crown Prince wants to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs?"
The atmosphere was inexplicably awkward. Lian Fangyu broke it and asked about Wang Jingkang's plans. Wang Jingkang kept his attitude and answered questions and answers. Faced with Lian Fangyu's neither humble nor overbearing answers, Lian Fangyu appreciated it even more.
Seeing that both parents were about to decide on the marriage, Lian Suisui walked around anxiously outside.
The boy guarding the door trotted past.
"Master, the Ninth Prince is here, outside the door!"
Lian Fangyu wondered, why did the Ninth Prince come to his house? Still at this time!
"Please!"
The courtesy cannot be discarded, so Lian Fangyu and Qin said their apologies and hurried to the door.
Even Suisui was following behind, and she wanted to know what Chu Zhiyi was doing here at this time.
Wang Jingkang saw her and quietly caught up with her from the living room and grabbed her wrist.
"Is Third Miss so impatient to meet her future husband?"
Even Suisui struggled to get away, but Wang Jingkang was not a weak scholar, so he held on tighter.
"Let me go!"
Wang Jingkang sneered.
"The third lady ruined my marriage. If I just let it go, won't I be laughed at?"
"Even adults think that you and I are a perfect match. When the third lady marries into our Wang family, our interests as husband and wife will become one. Third lady, don't let me down..."
Lian Suisui said angrily: "With my reputation, you still dare to marry me? I don't know whether to say that Prince Wang is brave, or that you are ignorant and fearless."
Aren't you afraid that she might poison him and not even save his life?
Wang Jingkang narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Miss Third will not let it go..."
Where did this man get his face!
Lian Suisui kept struggling, wishing he could blind him with a silver needle.
"I didn't know that the Ninth Prince was coming to visit, but I didn't expect him to be welcomed from afar."
Lian Fangyu saluted in front, and Chu Zhiyi got off the carriage, his eyes falling on Wang Jingkang's hand holding Lian Suisui.
In the large audience, Wang Jingkang finally let go of his hand and looked at Chu Zhiyi like a master.
The two people's eyes met, and Chu Zhiyi sneered.
"I didn't know that there was a guest at Lord Lian's house, and it was an unlucky time for me to come."
It was indeed a coincidence, but it was more like a coincidence. Lian Suisui cast a look at him for help. It would be better to mess up today's wedding!
"Your Majesty, please come in."
Everyone got out of the way and Shuying pushed Chu Zhiyi to the front and stopped in front of Lian Suisui.
"Shuying is not familiar with the road. Suisui, please push me in."
Lian Suisui looked at Lian Fangyu and pushed him through the door with a cry.
"Ninth Prince."
The yard was filled with red boxes, and Qin Dinghou and his wife came out to greet them.
"This is……"
Chu Zhiyi asked knowingly, and Qin Dinghou stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It makes the prince laugh. Today is a good day. I came to propose marriage to my son. I wonder why the prince came to the door today?"
He felt as comfortable as if Lian Mansion was Qin Dinghou's Mansion.
Chu Zhiyi smiled warmly, stretched out his hand, and Shuying put a red post on his hand.
"What a coincidence, I am also here to propose marriage."
Qin Dinghou's heart skipped a beat.
"May I ask who the prince is acting as a matchmaker for? Which young lady from the Lian family is the one you are looking for?"
The only girls in the Lian family who are of marriageable age are Lian Suisui and Lian Xiaoxiao. Lian Suisui is the legitimate daughter, but has a bad reputation. Lian Xiaoxiao has never heard of anything special, and she is still a child. Concubine.
As we all know, the Ninth Prince Chu Zhiyi has the best relationship with the Eleventh Prince Chu Jing'an. Could it be that the Eleventh Prince fell in love with a girl from the Lian family and asked the Ninth Prince to propose marriage?
Even Fang Yu was stunned. What day is today? Why do both of them come to propose marriage?
"Stop standing outside, Suisui, hurry up and push the prince to the living room!"
Everyone accompanied Chu Zhiyi through the door with apprehension.
Lian Suisui shouldn't have appeared on such an occasion, but now... Chu Zhiyi stared at Wang Jingkang's hand that touched Lian Suisui.
"I remember that I warned the prince yesterday that you are not worthy of her."
"My lord, I don't quite understand what the prince means."
Wang Jingkang felt an unprecedented sense of crisis. What did Chu Zhiyi mean?
But Chu Zhiyi put the post in his hand on the main table.
"The King is here today to propose marriage to Lian Suisui, the third daughter of the Lian family. This is the betrothal gift list. Please take a look at it, Mr. Lian and Mrs. Lian."
"this……"
Even Fang Yu was stunned, and Qin Dinghou and Madam Hou were also surprised.
"Your Majesty, how can my little daughter be so virtuous and capable..."
The dowry list given by Chu Zhiyi was a thick stack, which was many times more than the betrothal gift that Qin Dinghou carried directly to the courtyard. There were hundreds of families asking for girls, not to mention that the ones who came to propose marriage were Qin Dinghou's Mansion and the Nine Princes' Mansion. Such an identity...
"what you do……"
Lian Suisui squeezed out a sentence through his teeth and asked Chu Zhiyi, why did he come to join in the fun?
Chu Zhiyi turned his face and chuckled, without explaining.
Lian Suisui said anxiously: "Are you serious?"
"Your Majesty, something happened unexpectedly. I would like to..."
Lian Fangyu considered his words, but Chu Zhiyi caught them off guard when he came to the house today. When other people discuss marriage, they first find an intermediary or a matchmaker to test the relationship. After both parties let the word out, they sit down and discuss it carefully. How can there be such a direct relationship? One came to the door carrying the betrothal gift, and the other brought the betrothal gift list.
Chu Zhiyi waved his hand and said: "The third young lady is beautiful and smart, and the prince is equally good. Master Lian and Mrs. Lian can discuss it first before replying. I am not in a hurry."
He was really not in a hurry, but Wang Jingkang was. Who would have thought that Uncle Nine Emperors would suddenly jump out and interfere. Although he was a cripple, his identity was obvious. The Lian family refused to marry Cheng Wang, and Lian Sui Sui It's not easy to get married in the first place, but if he picks and chooses him instead of Uncle Nine Emperors, he will really get into trouble!
Choosing Liansui Sui originally involves risks and benefits. If the risks outweigh the benefits and it does no good to him, he might as well take the opportunity to quit and still sell well in front of the Nine Emperors Uncle.
"I wonder if the Ninth Prince also likes Miss Lian San. Father, why don't we just give up on this marriage?"
Qin Dinghou also had this intention. Wang Jingkang took the initiative to propose it, which saved him from racking his brains to persuade his son.
His son had an unknown reason yesterday. After he came back from outside, he made up his mind to marry Lian Suisui. No matter how he tried to persuade her, he was determined to let him propose marriage today.
I thought that the marriage would definitely happen today, but I didn't expect that Uncle Nine Emperors would show up halfway.
"The Crown Prince is already here, and he has brought all the betrothal gifts. Are you in such a hurry to quit? Why not wait a little longer, maybe the third lady will choose the Crown Prince instead of this crippled king?"
