Fu Zhao frowned, "What do you mean, Your Highness?"
Xie Yu curled her lips and showed a playful smile, as if she had thought of something particularly beautiful but short-lived.
"Don't you know how lonely you are?"
"Rather than finalizing a marriage, I prefer to remain ambiguous with the beauty."
"There is love, but love will not last."
"The same goes for Chu'er."
He shook his head helplessly, "Originally, Gu didn't do what he wanted, he just wanted to enjoy this feeling."
"But what Mr. Fu said just now really made Gu feel a little ashamed."
"Since Mr. Fu is so affectionate and has an engagement with Chu'er, I have no choice but to find another beautiful woman."
As he spoke, he picked up a cup of hot tea and drank it in one gulp, with a glimmer of light in his eyes.
Xie Yu smiled brightly, but Fu Zhao still felt extremely uncomfortable.
He even said angrily, "How could Your Highness deceive Chu'er's feelings like this!"
"If it weren't for His Highness, she wouldn't have sacrificed her life to save the third princess yesterday. Even Qingyu helped!"
"But His Highness was just joking with her!"
"The more I think about it, the angrier I get..."
Fu Zhao couldn't stay any longer, so he stood up instantly and saluted Xie Yu.
"Please keep your word, Your Highness, and stop disturbing Chu'er. I will leave first!"
As Fu Zhao flung out his sleeves and walked out, Xie Yucai finally lowered his head heavily.
The fists in his sleeves were clenched tightly, and the fingertips were almost pinched into the flesh. The unwillingness and reluctance to give up were no less than Fu Zhao's.
Fu Zhao and her were childhood sweethearts, so why not Xie Yu and her...
If it weren't for that girl, Xie Yu might not be around anymore.
So he not only liked her, but also felt grateful and... guilty.
But as a prince whose life was precarious and whose life was difficult to survive, how could he be willing to let Chu'er live such a life with her...
Her mother's ending was already so miserable. At least Chu'er should live a good life.
Although Fu Zhao is a little stupid and stupid, he is still much better than himself.
If Chuer marries him, she will have a stable life.
…
After interrogating the prisoner all night, Yu Chengguang already had an idea of what happened last night.
Unexpectedly, in the end, all the clues pointed to Li and King Chengan.
The Li family has Concubine Li and the second prince. King Chengan has extremely high military achievements and popularity, and is backed by the Queen Mother.
As the two largest factions in the court, the emperor has been working hard to maintain the balance between the two forces for many years.
If this matter is done well, it can dampen the arrogance of both factions at the same time.
But if it is not done well, the mouths of both sides will shake the world.
Yu Chengguang held his forehead, feeling more or less dizzy.
He didn't rest all night, and now he just wanted to see how his baby girl was doing...
As soon as Yu Chengguang got up, the guards outside hurriedly came to report that it was Fu Zhao who came to see him.
Originally, Yu Chengguang didn't want to see Fu Zhao.
Although what happened last night was not his fault, after this incident, he felt that Fu Zhao was a little too weak.
In the face of big right and wrong, he couldn't protect his daughter at all.
But as soon as the guard said this, Fu Zhao rushed in impatiently, completely abandoning all the rules and restraints in his mind.
Seeing this, Yu Chengguang had no choice but to sit down again and ask the guards to guard outside.
"Zhao'er, what are you doing?"
Fu Zhao lifted up his bright red official uniform, knelt on his nose in front of Yu Chengguang, and kowtowed to him.
"Zhao'er knows he's rude, but he really has no choice but to do so."
He slowly raised his head and said with a serious face, "Uncle Yu, there are rumors outside that Chu'er was killed by bandits... This is very detrimental to her!"
Yu Chengguang frowned instantly, and the wine glass on the table was roughly smashed to the ground.
"Nonsense! All nonsense!"
He suppressed the anger in his heart, even his lips were trembling.
Fortunately, Yu Chengguang has rich experience and no more points happened.
He raised his forehead slightly and asked Fu Zhao, "Zhao'er, because of this incident, you no longer want to have anything to do with Chu'er?"
"I also understand that your family has been officials for generations and places great importance on reputation. If you have such intention, I will not force you or blame you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Zhao kowtowed heavily, full of sincerity.
"No! Zhao'er is here because he hopes that Uncle Yu will fulfill Zhao'er's obsession!"
"Uncle Yu, please formally betroth Chu'er to Zhao'er!"
"If Uncle Yu agrees, Zhao'er will immediately fly a pigeon to send a message, asking his parents to prepare the betrothal gift and send it to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion immediately!"
Yu Chengguang's face was full of disbelief. If ordinary people encountered such a thing, they would avoid it.
But Zhaoer still never leaves Chuer...
Yu Chengguang was a little moved, but he didn't make a decision immediately.
He helped Fu Zhao up and asked him to sit next to him. Now he still had some questions to ask.
"Zhao'er, are you just acting like this because Chu'er's reputation has been damaged?"
Fu Zhao replied solemnly, "That's part of the reason."
"Zhao'er's feelings for Chu'er have already been revealed to Uncle Yu."
"Before, it was just because Chu'er kept refusing, so Zhao'er hopes to slowly impress Chu'er little by little."
"But now that something like this has happened, and the general election is approaching in three years, Zhao'er really can't wait any longer!"
"Zhao'er doesn't want Chu'er to suffer any injustice, so he has to be tough once more!"
"After getting married, and as time passes, Chu'er will understand Zhao'er's sincerity sooner or later!"
Fu Zhao knelt down again and kowtowed to Yu Chengguang, "Zhao'er doesn't care about rumors. No matter what Chu'er has gone through, Zhao'er is determined to marry her!"
"I beg Uncle Yu to make it happen!"
Yu Chengguang nodded with satisfaction. If he was worried that Fu Zhao could still do something, after hearing what he said just now, Yu Chengguang felt relieved.
Also, Chu'er has such a stubborn temperament, sometimes she should be tougher and shouldn't let her do everything.
Yu Chengguang believed in his own vision, and also believed in Fu Zhao's character and commitment.
He helped Fu Zhao up, pulled off the jade pendant from his waist and stuffed it into his hand, and said happily, "That's as Zhao'er wished."
"From now on, I will entrust Chu'er to you!"
In the Zhou Dynasty, if two families exchanged tokens, they were officially engaged.
Fu Zhao was so excited that he could hardly stand still. He hurriedly groped around on his body, and finally took off the ancestral ancient jade pendant from his neck, and respectfully presented it to Yu Chengguang with both hands.
"Thank you Uncle Yu! Zhao'er is grateful! I will live up to my trust and always be good to Chu'er!"
Yu Chengguang was impressed by this piece of ancient jade.
This is passed down only to direct descendants from generation to generation of the Fu family, and is a symbol of the power of the Fu family.
Under normal circumstances, they will never leave.
Unexpectedly, Zhao'er was so sincere that he was willing to use this ancient jade as a token in exchange.
Yu Chengguang was even more satisfied and hurriedly patted Fu Zhao on the shoulder.
"Okay! Come with me to see Chu'er, and tell her the good news."
