He can save the cannon fodder family that was doomed in the original work, and prevent the two cousins ​​from being implicated by their uncle, and from following in the footsteps of Rou Niang.

At this moment, Wei Hanzhang simply felt that this man was omnipotent.

The surrounding imperial guards, as well as Chen Zishu and other Dali Temple officials, were far away and did not hear the conversation here, but they were already shocked when they saw His Highness the Crown Prince speaking so softly to an unknown girl.

Who doesn't know that their Highness is cool and self-possessed, and no matter how beautiful the girl is standing in front of her, her eyes will not linger for a moment longer.

Whose lady is this?

Not to mention that Wei Hanzhang's face was covered by a curtain. Even if it wasn't, these people would not dare to raise their eyes abruptly to satisfy their curiosity.

It was quiet all the way until we got on the carriage, and Wei Hanzhang confirmed to him: "My uncle's two daughters, and my aunt, they really don't need to enter the Jiaofang Division?"

"No need," Xiao Junzhan sat opposite her, reluctantly letting go of her hand, and said softly: "The family members of criminal officials enter the Jiaofang Department just to serve as a warning, so that other officials can alert themselves and know how to be honest. A good official for the people.”

"This practice has been around since the beginning of the previous dynasty and has remained in this dynasty to this day. It was not the prince's idea."

Worried that this girl thought of him as a tyrant who would not let go of women and children, Xiao Junzhan explained in detail, and then added: "Jiang Zixiu's crime has not yet reached the level of execution. I promise you, his The family members will not join the Jiaofangsi."

His promise is really reassuring, especially after he took him to meet his grandfather's family today, Wei Hanzhang's trust in him has reached a new high.

With her heart racing, she didn't even dare to look directly into his gentle eyes. She kept turning her head to avoid it, and clenched her hands into fists hidden in her sleeves.

I kept telling myself that this was a second-married man who was still a very romantic and ruthless scumbag, so he could barely stabilize his mind.

But in his heart, Wei Hanzhang couldn't help but think, what if...

If he wasn't a scumbag who flirted with his wife after she died less than half a year ago, if he didn't have those warblers in his backyard...

Then she might have fallen.

There is a certain reason why the story of a hero rescuing a beautiful woman has been enduring from ancient times to the present, even to the era of cultural prosperity in the previous life.

Whether it was because of Mu Qiang's psychology, at least in Wei Hanzhang's opinion, when she was desperate and couldn't find any other way to save the Jiang family, it was Prince Xiao who helped her unswervingly.

It seemed that as long as he was around, everything could be solved, and the sense of security he gave Wei Hanzhang increased little by little without him realizing it.

Human beings are not grass and trees, who can remain indifferent.

What's more, this man is really a good-looking, calm and self-possessed young master. He is aloof and unattainable to the outside world. He only treats you gently and dotes on you. He also has a very good temper...

Wei Hanzhang pursed his lips tightly and remained silent, stubbornly resisting the throbbing in his heart.

This is the ancient time when women cannot make mistakes, and life-long events cannot be taken lightly. Therefore, she cannot be easily tempted just because she is moved.

If Gu Yunran, who had taken in two wives without telling her, was not a good match, then it was even less likely that the eldest son of the royal family, whose backyard was full of warblers, was a good match.

………………

Gu Mansion and Main Courtyard. It was already late when Gu Xulin returned home yesterday. He got up early this morning and went to the palace to deliver the news. He was busy until the afternoon before he stepped into the house again.

As soon as they reached the front yard, they were called into the main courtyard by the maid sent by Mrs. Gu to guard the door early.

At this moment, looking at the light golden Geng Tie on the square table and listening to his wife's detailed narration, Gu Xulin felt as if he was listening to a book from heaven.

"Madam, you mean..." Gu Xulin frowned, a little disbelieving: "Princess Changle's daughter has taken a liking to Zhuang'er and wants to marry into my Gu family as her daughter-in-law?"

"That's right!" Mrs. Gu's face couldn't hide her joy. She picked up the Geng Tie on the table and said, "This was sent by the Duke of Qi last night. It shows how anxious their family is about this matter..."

Gu Xulin raised his hand to interrupt Li's repeated chatter and asked: "Who sent it and what words were left behind. Madam will repeat it to me word for word."

His expression was too serious, which made Mrs. Li stunned for a moment, but she immediately put away her joy and thought for a few moments.

He then said: "The person who came here claimed to be the chief steward of the Duke of Qi's palace. It was already dark at that time. He handed over the Qi family's girl's wedding invitation, saying that Princess Changle intended to marry her daughter to the Gu family. Within three days, we, the Gu family, were asked to go to the Duke's palace to propose marriage. "

"Within three days?" Gu Xulin was shocked. Even if he really wanted to marry his daughter, he would not be in such a hurry. How could a royal princess get married so hastily?

Still have something not to say to others...

After thinking wildly, Gu Xulin frowned and said, "Has something big happened to the Qi family in recent days? Also, have we done anything inappropriate?"

Mrs. Li understood what he meant and said with an angry smile: "You don't know yet about your son, but his heart is set on that girl from the Wei family, and he even sent away the two girls I chose for him. It's far away, and I haven't even touched it, so how can I be different from other girls?"

"But..." Ms. Li paused and said, "But something really happened to the Qi family yesterday."

After she told the story about Princess Chengyi being slapped in public and being deprived of her status as princess, she continued: "His Royal Highness is the direct uncle of the girl from the Qi family. How could he really hate his niece, even if he crippled her in a moment of anger? It won’t be long before I become the master…”

Gu Xulin also agrees with this statement. His Majesty currently has few heirs, and the only two direct descendants are Princess Changle and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. The two siblings are truly siblings from the same mother. How noble the status of the girl from the Qi family is. Although I don’t know why I annoyed the Crown Prince yesterday. But we are still a family...

This is a rich daughter who is more than ten times more noble than the girl from the Wei family. Now this noble girl is very fond of her son, and for some unknown reason, the Duke of Qi is eager to consummate her daughter's marriage.

However, their family had already entered into a verbal engagement with the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, and both families were tacitly aware of the marriage. They only waited for the proposal of marriage. How could a daughter of a high family favor him and commit such a treachery?

Gu Xulin had a headache. The Gu family had just come to the capital, and it would be shameful for them to do this for their first child's marriage.

But if he really refuses the eldest princess's side, he will not only offend His Highness's compatriot sisters, but also offend the Duke of Qi. In the future, his own future and his son's future will be hindered by two more obstacles.

Compared with offending the Duke of Qi and Princess Changle, the weight of the Zhongyong Houfu is not enough.

If he withdraws from the Wei family, it will only hinder his reputation, but as long as his son becomes the son-in-law of Princess Changle, the in-law family will naturally look after his future. In the future, his official career will be smooth, so there is no need to worry about his unlucky official career.
