Princess is heartbroken

Chapter 357
The emperor looked at the father and daughter, his eyes flashed with interest, he could understand Xu Huaiwu's thoughts, he must be counting on Liu Liyue's death from illness so that Xu Lingxi could have a chance to rectify himself.It's just this Xu Lingxi, what is the meaning of this action?
"Xu Lingxi, do you really want me to be the master for you?"

"Yes! Your Majesty, please make decisions for your ministers!" Xu Lingxi affirmed that she could no longer care too much. She didn't care about whether she was a concubine or not. She only wanted to do one thing now, and that was to marry To King Qi.

Liu Liyue is seriously ill now, if King Qi married her at this time, Liu Liyue might die if she gets angry.

Xu Lingxi calculated self-righteously, as if the plot had succeeded, a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth inadvertently.

A gleam flashed across the emperor's eyes, his face was serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Miss Xu is right, you are already twenty this year, and you really cannot delay. In this way, I decide to dissolve your engagement with King Qi. Come, you won't be delayed by King Qi!"

As soon as the emperor said this, everyone was in an uproar.

Xu Lingxi was a little confused, how could this be?Shouldn't the emperor let King Qi marry her immediately?How could it be the dissolution of the engagement?Xu Lingxi couldn't accept this result, her body was limp on the ground, her eyes glazed over.

"Your Majesty, this humble minister is guilty!" Xu Huaiwu knelt down and confessed in a deep voice, "It is the humble minister who has no way to teach a daughter, which makes this evil girl say such presumptuous words!"

"Your Majesty, since you have married the daughter of Weichen to King Qi, she is a member of King Qi's mansion. No matter when King Qi marries her, she will have to wait. It is really unfair to cry to the emperor so presumptuously." Should."

"The humble minister has no way to teach a daughter, please forgive me!"

The emperor raised his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, get up, those who celebrate the New Year, don't make it difficult for me!"

Regarding the dissolution of the engagement, the emperor didn't mention it any more, Xu Huaiwu was not sure what the emperor meant, but he didn't dare to neglect, stood up quickly, and dragged Xu Lingxi back to his seat.

The palace banquet continued, and everything just now seemed to be just a small episode.

As usual, the daughters of each family will show their talents on stage.Li Yue didn't come, but Mu Ling was being watched. Many people were waiting to see how capable the young lady who was found from Duke Liu's mansion was.

Xu Lingxi lost face because of the previous incident, and this time she was about to get back on the stage, but she managed to play a piece of music, but unfortunately, no matter how well she played the piece, in the eyes of everyone, it was only a joke after all.

When it was Mu Ling's turn, Mu Ling didn't have stage fright, and walked to the center of the stage calmly, said calmly, "The little girl doesn't know any talents", then walked back to her seat calmly and sat down.

This behavior made everyone stunned for a moment, and there are many people who despise it.But there are also many young masters from aristocratic families who appreciate Mu Ling's demeanor. After all, a beauty is beautiful no matter what she does. Even if her face is expressionless and her expression is cold, in the eyes of all the young masters, that is the only scenery.

After the palace banquet was over, the adults of each family led their families out of the palace one after another.

Outside the gate of the palace, Mrs. Feng was about to get into her carriage, but she didn't want to hear someone shouting not far away: "Mrs. Liu! Wait a minute!"

Turning around, Mrs. Feng saw Mrs. Qin leading her son coming.

Mrs. Qin came closer and said with a smile: "Mrs. Liu, it's rare to see you once, but you are in a hurry to leave!"

Mrs. Feng smiled back, "Madam Qin, it's okay, I want to go home early! You called me, but what's the matter?"

"It must be something!" Mrs. Qin smiled slightly, glanced at Mu Ling next to her, and asked, "Mrs. Liu, is your eldest daughter well-off?"

As soon as Mrs. Qin's words came out, Mrs. Feng understood instantly, and said with a smile, "Not yet!" Looking at Qin Che who was beside Mrs. Qin, "Mr. Qin is really handsome!"

Qin Che looked a little embarrassed, and secretly glanced at Mu Ling.

"Mrs. Liu, I'm not boasting. Qin Che is handsome and gentle. He loves others. He has always kept himself clean. We don't have many concubines in our house. Madam thinks it's okay. ?” Mrs. Qin was all smiles.

Feng Shi nodded and looked at Qin Che with a smile. The more she looked, the more satisfied she was, "Mrs. Qin, the son of the Qin family is very good."

"Mrs. Liu, since this is the case, then look, should our two families add up?" Mrs. Qin said.

Feng Shi nodded and said with a slight smile, "Of course it's good..."

"Aunt!" Mu Ling interrupted Feng's words, reached out and pulled Feng's sleeve.

Feng smiled lightly, and said a little angrily: "Lingling, don't interrupt, Auntie is talking about business!"

"Auntie, I have no intention of getting married!" Mu Ling said helplessly.

"Girls, there is no one who doesn't marry!" Feng Shi said, turning to look at Mrs. Qin, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Qin, you must have some doubts in your heart, so I will tell you the truth, Lingling is My niece, but no different from my daughter."

"Lingling is now the eldest lady of our Duke's mansion. According to the genealogy, she is also the daughter of me and the Duke, Miss Liu Muling of the Liu family."

"Mrs. Qin, should we continue talking now?"

"Of course!" Mrs. Qin nodded with a smile, "Mrs. Liu, if you can tell the truth with me, it is full of sincerity. As for me, I am also very sincere. I am not afraid of your jokes. I have always had a headache about Qin Che's marriage. It is rare that he I am quite fond of your girl!"

"In this case, then Mrs. Qin, send someone to come to my house later, and we can discuss it carefully." Feng said.

Seeing that it was time to talk about marriage, Mu Ling felt anxious, and said again: "Auntie, my marriage is not in a hurry!"

Feng turned her head to look at Mu Ling, held Mu Ling's hand in her hand, and said softly: "Lingling, don't be in a hurry, Auntie is in a hurry! A girl's family must have a home, Auntie wishes you happiness, do you know?"

"But auntie, you can't just marry me off like this? It's too casual!"

Feng smiled lightly: "Lingling, you are my aunt's heart, how can my aunt lose you? This Mrs. Qin is a person, my aunt can trust her, and the conduct of her children is also one of the best in Beijing, so my aunt can talk to her Talk about marriage."

"Besides, my aunt didn't tell you to marry now, did you? You get to know Mr. Qin for a while and get to know each other well. Let's talk about marriage, shall we?"

Mu Ling felt powerless, she knew that her aunt was doing it for her own good, but she really had no intention of getting married.

"Cousin, why don't you talk to Mr. Qin for a while first!" Liu Yuchen interjected.

Mu Ling lowered her eyes, not knowing what else to say.

Seeing that Mu Ling didn't seem to like him very much, Qin Che couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, and couldn't help but said, "Miss Mu Ling, let's try to get along for a while! After getting along, if you really don't like me, then this Just let go of the marriage!"
