Chapter 439
King Zhongshan's eyes moved slightly: "This..."

Chen Zhiji pondered and said: "What happened that day was really unexpected. The Chen family is also very grateful to Mr. Xie Wu and Miss Xie Qi for saving Shulan. However, this matter involves the honor of the daughter's family..."

"I hope Your Highness can be more considerate."

Yun Qi asked: "How to be careful?"

Being thorough is just pretending that you don’t know. Isn’t this deceiving someone?
And now there is already a lot of noise outside, and I can't control it at all.

The rest of the rumors are nothing more. After three or five days, others will forget about new things to talk about. But such rumors related to the innocence of the daughter's family and the scandal of the rich family have always been stained for life as long as they are exposed.

This stain cannot be washed away.

Chen Zhiji frowned and stroked his beard, obviously realizing that the word "thorough" in his words was very inappropriate.

King Zhongshan was older after all. His eyes slowly swept over Xie Changyuan and Yun Qi, and finally stayed on Xie Changyuan for a moment longer, and then said: "Then, according to His Highness's wishes, what should we do about this matter?"

"The rumors are a family matter of the Chen family. The old prince has his own plans and must know how to deal with it. But regarding Miss Chen... I have some suggestions."

Yun Qi paused for a moment before speaking calmly, "It was Xie Wu who took care of her when she was sick in the capital. It was Xie Wu who saved her this time when she was tricked by others. I think the two of them are closely related. If they become a couple, it will be the same." A good thing."

Yun Qi spoke lightly. Although he was talking about Xie Changyuan rescuing Chen Shulan, he had only brought up the rumor before, so if he mentioned it again now, there would be no innuendo.

The King of Zhongshan took a deep breath, not knowing that Chen Shulan's innocence would already be compromised.

The King of Zhongshan had also interrogated Chen Wenzhuo about the plot this time. The medicine they gave Chen Shulan was unscrupulous. He was afraid that even if Chen Shulan was not tainted by Liu, she would fall into the hands of a libertine named Xie Changyuan. It is absolutely impossible to have it all.

Moreover, Chen Wenzhuo complained angrily about the incident in Bozhou, saying that Xie Changyuan had done something wrong with Chen Shulan...

King Zhongshan thought about it many times and sighed secretly in his heart.

A woman's value plummets when she loses her innocence, let alone a noble daughter from a family like Chen Shulan.

"Father."

Chen Zhiji called King Zhongshan hesitantly.

Yun Qi is still waiting for a reply.

The King of Zhongshan smiled and said: "What His Highness said is absolutely true. Xie Wu Gongzi is among the best among men. Although he and Shulan met late, they rescued each other several times. I think there is a lot of fate between the two."

"In that case, I will betroth Shulan to Mr. Xie."

Xie Changyuan stood up and held up his hands: "Thank you, old prince, for your support. Xie Wu will definitely treat her well and will not bully her."

"well……"

The King of Zhongshan stroked his beard and said "Okay" several times, his eyes swept over Yun Qi again, and he felt a mixture of emotions in his heart.

When Yun Qi was young and obsessed with Xie Zhaozhao, he disobeyed the prince and Emperor Xuanwu, and his reputation was extremely bad. In fact, King Zhongshan also looked down upon him, thinking that Chen Shulan's ration of Yun Qi was like a flower stuck in cow dung.

But Yun Qi was of high status after all, and the marriage had been decided in private long ago, with only a clear imperial edict missing.

Although the King of Zhongshan felt that Yun Qi was unworthy, it was related to the interests of the entire Chen family and their future, so he could only sigh.

Later, Chen Shulan was sent to Beijing for the purpose of her marriage to Yun Qi. Unexpectedly, there were twists and turns. An accident occurred in the Chen family's main house. Chen Shulan was seriously ill after a trip to hell and could not remember her past.

Yun Qi and Xie Zhaozhao were also given marriage...

Now that the King of Zhongshan is thinking about it, he feels very sorry for Chen Shulan. After all, she is the granddaughter he has watched grow up and loved for many years.

The King of Zhongshan sighed with kind eyes: "I have a merciless request... Fifth Young Master Xie and Shulan will worship in Northern Hebei. I want to see her get married." Xie Changyuan was slightly startled and looked at Yun Qi. One glance.

Yun Qi said calmly: "It is understandable that the old prince loves Miss Chen. You can worship in northern Hebei first, and then do it again after returning to Beijing. There is no such precedent."

"..."

Xie Changyuan was silent for a moment, "That's good, but if you worship here, I'm afraid the betrothal gift and other matters may not be comprehensive."

"It's okay."

Wang Pingping of Zhongshan said: "The betrothal gift is all about the heart. I believe in Fifth Young Master Xie's affection for Shulan, and I also believe that the Xie family will treat Shulan well in the future. There is no need to use gold and silver to measure these things."

Xie Changyuan had to say that the King of Zhongshan was very good at speaking and being a good person.

If he hadn't carefully analyzed the situation in northern Hebei with Yun Qi and Xie Zhaozhao a few days ago, he would have really thought that King Zhongshan was still the grandfather who loved Chen Shulan extremely.

But a grandfather who loves his granddaughter will not see her for a month after she returns home from suffering, and will not even look after her secretly?
Maybe there is love, but not that much.

Xie Changyuan cupped his hands and said, "In that case, then follow the old prince's wishes."

*
After Xie Changyuan and Yun Qi said goodbye and left, King Zhongshan sat in the pavilion in silence for a while, then suddenly stood up and called Chen Zhiji to go to the study.

Entering the study, Chen Zhiji comforted him with a warm voice: "Father, although this Xie Changyuan has a bad reputation for being a libertine, he is still a son of the Xie family. It seems that he is somewhat capable."

"Shulan followed him...it's better than the Liu family's evildoers."

King Zhongshan's face suddenly darkened, "You still mention this matter? You have married an incredible wife! You can still be caught by others in your own home, and you can still have Mr. Liu brought to me by Xie Zhaozhao. ?”

"Incompetent bungler!"

"Shuya didn't develop a smart person even after being taught by her. Her eyes are on the top of her head all day long."

Chen Zhiji froze: "What happened that day... Madam was indeed negligent, but who would have thought that Xie Zhaozhao came so quietly, and the city patrol never received any news of her coming into the city..."

"And my wife didn't interfere in this matter. It was Ofang Wenzhuo who took the lead——"

Hearing that Chen Wenzhuo, King Zhongshan's face became even more ugly, he sneered and said: "I am not very capable, but my ambition is not small. I want to get involved in the title of Prince Zhongshan, but I don't even know how capable I am."

Chen Zhiji didn't dare to speak.

After King Zhongshan paced in the room for a while, he said: "There is only one title for King Zhongshan. It needs to be passed on to someone with both ability and political integrity to ensure that the Chen family will remain strong in the future."

"Wen Zhuo is not that good, and your youngest son Wen Yong is not a good one either. At the moment, it seems that only Wen Shuo can take on the big responsibility."

The King of Zhongshan sighed slowly: "I thought that I was also the all-powerful guard in the past, and I got the title of King of Zhongshan through life and death. Why are my descendants so poor... Look at the Xie family."

Xie Wei is now in his prime, deeply trusted by Emperor Xuanwu, and is in charge of Youzhou's military affairs.

The eldest son and the second son are brave and good at fighting and stationed in one place.

Even the daughter is extraordinary and handsome, hundreds of times better than her own son.

Even though Xie Changyuan has a romantic nature and is a crooked melon, he is still capable.

They are both raising children, so why are they so different?
