After Yongfu County was dismissed, some people were happy and some were sad.
Those families who were afraid of being given a marriage breathed a sigh of relief.
They finally don't have to worry about their son being forced to marry a vicious woman!
King Yu was naturally the happiest one.
When he learned that Yongfu actually sent someone to assassinate the princess and his daughter, he was so frightened that he almost lost his mind.
Fortunately, both the princess and her daughter were fine, otherwise Chu Hongle wouldn't know what to do.
Now that Yongfu was sent to guard the tomb from afar, he finally didn't have to worry.
However, those families who originally coveted the wealth of Prince Fu's Mansion were a little worried.
Because after Yongfu County Lord was demoted to a commoner, the emperor also took back Prince Fu's Mansion.
As a result, their plans to marry and make a fortune were all in vain, and they had to find new goals.
Yet another person had a different reaction.
That is Han Xiangru.
When Han Xiangru first learned that Yongfu County Lord had sent people to assassinate Han Wanqing, she was still a little gloating.
She originally thought that if Han Wanqing disappeared, she might be able to marry into Prince Yu's palace as a second wife.
Unexpectedly, Han Wanqing was fine, but Yongfu County Lord was punished.
Having learned from the past, Han Xiangru's heart dropped from clinging to King Yu.
Now, she still had to make other plans.
After all, Han Xiangru is seventeen this year. If she doesn't get married, she will really become an old girl.
It just so happened that one of the people who proposed marriage to her recently had a pretty good family background.
It was the Marquis of Qingyuan who asked for marriage for his third son.
When Han Xiangru heard that it was the Hou Mansion, she was already convinced.
Although Marquis Qingyuan already has an heir apparent, her marriage will definitely have nothing to do with her title, but she is still a Marquis's family after all!
As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
It's better to marry into the Qingyuan Marquis' Mansion than to marry those unknown people, right?
Han Xiangru made up her mind that this was the family.
When Mrs. Wang heard that Qingyuan Houfu came to ask for her daughter to marry, she immediately felt proud.
This is the person with the highest family status among those who came to propose marriage.
Because the Wang family was a concubine, she not only deprived Ning Yuanbo's first wife of his children, but also wanted to marry Li Taojiang when the emperor proposed marriage to the princess, so her reputation has long been bad.
The ladies in the capital all stayed away from her, and even the Wang family's daughter had a difficult time getting married.
Mrs. Wang was very happy, her daughter was supposed to marry into a prince's family!
Both Wang and Han Xiangru wanted to accept the marriage immediately, but Uncle Ning Yuan was not very happy.
He stroked his beard and poured cold water on it: "The Qingyuan Marquis Mansion doesn't have a good reputation."
Mrs. Wang hurriedly asked: "Master, what's wrong?"
The ladies with some status in the capital were unwilling to associate with her, so Wang didn't know the inside story at all.
Ning Yuanbo thought for a while and said: "The Qingyuan Marquis Mansion has a large population, and there are seven or eight concubines alone. If Xiangru marries her, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get along with my sister-in-law."
Wang said: "These three young masters are direct descendants, so it should be fine."
Uncle Ning Yuan frowned: "I don't know what the character of this third young master is, so I'd better inquire first."
Although Mrs. Wang wanted to agree, she thought it was for the sake of her daughter that she didn't say anything.
…
Enjoy the palace.
Ever since Lord Yongfu was dismissed by the emperor, Chu Siqing has been in a good mood.
She finally avenged her mother-in-law!
System: [Host, there is a melon, do you want to eat it? 】
Chu Siqing was in a good mood and said: [Say. 】
System: [Qingyuan Houfu has come to propose marriage to Han Xiangru. This Houfu is not an easy one! 】
Chu Siqing wrinkled her nose and had a very bad impression of this aunt.
Han Xiangru was not only jealous of her mother and concubine, she even coveted her father. It was so shameless!
Chu Siqing asked: [What happened to Qingyuan Hou Mansion? 】
System: [Qingyuan Hou has many wives and concubines, including ten sons alone, and his family fortune has long been emptied. 】
[Mrs. Qingyuan Hou originally wanted to marry her son to the Lord of Yongfu County, and then use her daughter-in-law’s dowry to supplement the family income. 】
[Now that Yongfu County Lord has been dismissed, she has taken Han Xiangru’s idea. 】
Chu Siqing thought for a while: [I remember my grandpa’s family didn’t have much money, right? What's the point of looking for Han Xiangru? 】
System: [The main reason is that the Qingyuan Hou Mansion has a bad reputation, and even slightly better people look down upon it. 】
[Furthermore, Mrs. Qingyuanhou has fallen in love with Han Xiangru. She clearly wants her son to be brother-in-law with Prince Yu so that they can have a good relationship with each other. 】
Chu Siqing was speechless: [Maybe she doesn’t know that my mother-in-law and Han Xiangru have fallen out with each other a long time ago, right? 】
System: [It should be. 】
Chu Siqing asked: "What about her son?" 】
System: [The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Her son is not only a mama's boy, but also has three other wives. 】
Chu Siqing's eyes widened: "Oh my god, I'm so poor that I want to buy a dowry for my wife. How can I still have money to support an illegitimate wife?" 】
System: [Host, don’t you know, the outer room can also be raised in poverty. 】
Chu Siqing's head was filled with confusion: [Come on, he is still a stingy man. 】
She couldn't help but sigh: [How did Han Xiangru fall in love with such a top-notch product? ! 】
System: [She just wants to marry into a distinguished family. 】
Chu Siqing understood: [Yes, Han Xiangru always compares with her mother. Seeing that her mother married into the palace, it is normal for her to want to cling to the powerful. 】
Although she was a little gloating about the misfortune, Chu Siqing thought about it and told Princess Yu about it.
She said to her mother in her heart: "Concubine, this Mrs. Qingyuanhou is probably coming to our Prince Yu's Mansion." 】
[You have to make an agreement with your aunt, either not to marry, or if she has something bad to do then, please don't come to us. 】
Princess Yu got angry when she heard that the Qingyuan Hou Mansion was in such chaos and that the third young master who asked for marriage was not a serious person.
She even made a special trip back to her parents' home to tell Han Xiangru about this.
Unexpectedly, Han Xiangru and Wang went out at the wrong time.
Princess Yu then said to Uncle Ning Yuan: "Father, the third son of Qingyuan Houfu is not a good match. You need to be careful about your sister's marriage."
Uncle Ning Yuan was also surprised.
He also went to inquire about it, and found out that although the third young master had no ambition to make progress, he was well-known for his filial piety, so he thought it would be okay to marry his daughter to him.
Unexpectedly, this kid who knows people but doesn't know his heart actually has three outhouses outside!
Uncle Ning Yuan rubbed his brows and said, "My father knows about this. You have troubled yourself for Xiangru."
Princess Yu said: "I just hope my sister won't get into trouble."
Uncle Yongning vowed: "Don't worry, my father will make it clear to your sister."
Princess Yu just smiled when she heard this, said a few more words, and then returned to the palace.
Uncle Yong Ning did not expect that he would be slapped in the face so quickly.
After Wang and Han Xiangru came back, he told them what his eldest daughter had learned about.
Uncle Yong Ning thought that this was the case, and his second daughter would definitely give up on the marriage.
But Han Xiangru said: "Big sister just doesn't like me."
