Chapter 7 Breaking off the Engagement with the Guan Family

Lu Ze paused, took the wine glass handed over by Qi Yuan, took a sip and said, "Does the princess know about the matchmaking?"

Qi Yu'an said: "Your family did this, which made my sister very angry. I haven't had time to tell her yet, but it doesn't hurt that Prince Lu is the matchmaker first. I will talk to my sister about these two people later. "

Lu Ze nodded lightly and said, "I'll try my best, King Qi. I have to go to the Guan family, so I'll take my leave first."

Qi Yuan patted Lu Ze on the shoulder, "Okay, I'll leave it to Prince Lu to be the matchmaker for my sister. If this marriage is successful, I will definitely reward you as a great matchmaker."

……

In the south of Shengjing City, inside Guanzhai.

Guan Yao was originally the general magistrate of Jinling, and his three previous daughters married well. Because of his in-laws, Guan Yao was able to enter Shengjing and become the sixth-grade chief minister.

Now that the youngest sixth girl of the Guan family is engaged to Princess Pingrou's eldest son, Prince Lu Ze, she is really rich and powerful.

In the room of Miss Guan Liu, Guan Zhiyi.

Aunt Zhu, the biological mother of the sixth girl, said with a smile the news she had just learned.

"I know, Little Princess Lu has indeed become a monk. Originally, my aunt was worried that after you get married to Prince Lu, there will be princess siblings who will always suppress you.

Even though you will be the elder sister-in-law, you will not be able to hold your head high in front of Princess Qi, your sister-in-law. With the blessing of Bodhisattva, Princess Qi will no longer be your sister-in-law! "

Guan Zhiyi thought of Lu Ze whom he had seen in the temple that day. He was tall, dignified and handsome. He blushed and said, "Auntie, the marriage has not been decided yet. It is just a verbal agreement. You can Don’t talk nonsense.”

Aunt Zhu smiled and said: "Gong Lu's Mansion is from the top family of my Dasheng Dynasty. Since Mrs. Lu has verbally agreed on the engagement, how could it not count? I didn't expect that my Xiaoliu would be able to do such a great thing." So rich!"

Lu Ze's background, family background, appearance, demeanor, and promising future are all unparalleled. He can be said to be the dream son-in-law of Quan Shengjing's girl.

Guan Zhiyi said: "Auntie, did Prince Lu really become a monk and regret his marriage? Can't Princess Qi be angry to death?"

Aunt Zhu hid her smile and said, "Isn't that right? I heard that yesterday Princess Qi went to Xianglin Temple in her wedding dress to beg Prince Lu to return to secular life and marry her. However, Prince Lu was unwilling to return to secular life and marry her. It's a good thing that Qi Yuning doesn't have any sisters, otherwise the Qi family's daughter's reputation would be ruined by her."

Aunt Zhu sighed again, "I heard that Prince Lu just went to the Qi family to apologize and gave a lot of generous gifts. He was almost ready to be hired. These treasures that the Lu family apologized to were supposed to be for you, but now they are all cheap. Kill Qi Yuning!"

Guan Zhiyi said: "The most important thing for a woman is to be a virtuous and virtuous housekeeper. Princess Qi is so arrogant. No wonder Prince Lu is willing to become a monk."

While Guan Zhiyi was joking, the maid hurriedly came and said, "Sixth Miss, Prince Lu is here and he has brought a generous gift."

Aunt Zhu raised her eyebrows with joy and said, "Zhiyi, has the prince come here to make an engagement?"

After Guan Zhiyi heard this, her worries were relieved. The marriage that she had worked so hard to plan finally came to fruition.

In the lobby of Guanzhai, Guan Yao's expression changed when he heard that Lu Ze's intention was to cancel the oral engagement.

Guan Yao said: "Master Lu, breaking off an engagement will cause a woman to lose her reputation. If my Xiaoliu's engagement is broken off, her sisters will also be affected and their reputation will be ruined. Although my Guan family is a small family, it is also very important." Those who value rules and reputation.”

Lu Ze straightened his posture and said: "Master Guan, this marriage is just a verbal agreement. It is not considered a marriage, let alone an annulment. It will not implicate the reputation of the Guan family's daughter who married outside the family."

"But this matter is indeed my fault. I had a daughter before marriage, so I had to cancel the verbal agreement. I am really sorry for Miss Guan Liu."

Lu Ze ordered the servant to take the apology gifts into the house and said, "These apology gifts are just a small token of my gratitude to Miss Six for saving my grandmother."

Guan Yao heard that Lu Ze was unmarried and had a son and said: "Prince Lu, you are just the eldest daughter of a concubine. The daughter of the Guan family has always been virtuous and will not care about it. If you insist on breaking off the engagement, you will trample on the reputation of my daughter of the Guan family." ..." Lu Ze put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and said: "Master Guan, this is just what my grandmother said verbally. It is not an annulment at all. The generous gift is because I don't want to create a grudge with the Guan family. After all, the marriage cannot be completed, and the Lu Guan family The friendship is still there.”

Seeing Lu Ze stand up, Guan Yao said, "That's what Prince Lu said."

Guan Yao looked at Lu Ze's back and sighed deeply. This marriage was what the old lady of the Lu family had said. The princess didn't even come to formalize the marriage. Indeed, it didn't even count as an annulment.

But Guan Yao really couldn't bear to part with such a rich son-in-law. The other five sons-in-law of the Guan family were all considered noble sons-in-law, but in front of Lu Ze, they were nothing.

The Lu family was so generous, each of these gifts was comparable to the wealth of the Guan family, and they couldn't bear to part with such a noble son-in-law.

After Lu Ze left, Guan Zhiyi, Aunt Zhu and her daughter hurriedly came to the front yard. Seeing the grand ceremony that filled the hall, Aunt Zhu's eyes shone.

Aunt Zhu asked: "Master, is Prince Lu here to settle the marriage? Is my Xiaoliu really going to be the princess' daughter-in-law?"

Guan Yao saw Guan Zhiyi coming over with a happy expression on his face, and said angrily: "Shizi Lu is here to break off the engagement. I have told you not to have such high expectations. What kind of family is the Lu family? I am the eldest son of the uncle's house who can marry your sister." The Guan family has the best family they can get, but you are thinking about the royal family..."

Guan Zhiyi was stunned, "How could that be? Prince Lu is a gentleman, he will not break off the engagement by repaying kindness with hatred!"

Guan Yao said: "Hey, you should choose another son-in-law in the future. The Lu family's family is too high. Don't think too much. You are not worthy!"

Guan Zhiyi wrapped her handkerchief around her. She had worked hard to establish a relationship with the Lu family in the temple. How come her beloved son-in-law was gone?
How could she be willing to do so?With Zhuyu in front of me, I will definitely not find a better son-in-law than Lu Ze.

Why doesn't she deserve it?Aren't they just concubines?She has been recorded in the name of her aunt, and she no longer has a concubine origin.

……

Prince Qi's Mansion, during evening meal.

Qi Yuning took Lingling's hand to the dining hall.

The Qi family was a military general, and the two brothers and sisters did not have any rules about eating and drinking.

Qi Yu'an took a piece of fish meat to Qi Yuning and said, "Sister, I just asked Prince Lu to set up a matchmaker for you with Lin Jiang from the Hanlin Academy and Qin Feng, the minister of the Ministry of Punishments. You should prepare in the next few days to meet Qin Fenglin." Prime Minister Jiang, take a look."

Qi Yuning just picked up the chopsticks and said, "Did Lu Ze agree?"

Qi Yuan nodded and said, "Yes."

Lingling tilted her little head and said: "Uncle, what does it mean to be a matchmaker? Lingling hasn't seen Uncle Lin Jiang for a long time. Is the matchmaking meant to play with flower strings? Does Uncle Lin Jiang still play with flower strings?"

Qi Yu'an touched little Lingling's bun, "Lingling still knows Uncle Lin Jiang?"

Xiao Lingling smiled and said: "Uncle Lin Jiang is daddy's best friend!"

Qi Yu'an said: "Lingling's father is actually Lin Jiang's good friend?"

Qi Yuning took the jug on the side and poured a glass of wine, and said casually: "Oh, Lingling's father is Lu Ze."

Qi Yu'an suddenly realized: "No wonder, the father and daughter look so similar. Since Lingling is Lu Ze's daughter, why don't you send Lingling back to the princess' mansion?"

Qi Yuning took a sip of wine and said calmly: "Because I am Lingling's biological mother."

 Uncle:? ? ?
