C3 The Su Family Annuls the Marriage and Prince Jin Proposes Marriage (1/2)

The next day, before Su Qian Shan, who was about to go to the Mansion of the Shardbearer to end the engagement, received word of the Shardbearer's arrival.

After a moment of hesitation, he called for a servant and said, ”Go, call First Miss over to the Lingfeng Hall and tell her that someone from the Shardbearer Kingdom has arrived.”

”Yes.”

Su Qian Shan had been thinking hard about how to minimize his losses ever since he handed the name scroll over yesterday.

The laws of the Da Qi Kingdom were always broad when it came to marriage. Not to mention the fact that the two of them were engaged, even if the two of them were already married, it was still possible for them to be divorced from each other.

As for the reason to end the engagement, it was easy to find.

As the sole son of the Shardbearer Kingdom, Yan Yu Gui had been living in the fireworks all day and night. Since they had already arranged a marriage, he still had a bad character. The Su Clan could not use this as an excuse to break off their engagement.

After all, no one wanted to marry their daughter to a man who slept like a willow tree, let alone a noble family like Su Zixuan.

The Su Clan was merely a merchant, but the Da Qi Kingdom did not suppress merchants. Furthermore, the Su Clan's descendants were the imperial merchants of the Da Qi Kingdom. The sons of the Su Clan were allowed to participate in the Imperial Examinations by His Majesty.

It was a pity that the children of the Su Clan had always been weak. The only legitimate son of this generation was an idiot.

Thus, if there were no mishaps, this huge family business would be Su Zixuan's from now on.

Thus, unlike the other girls, Su Zixuan had followed her father to manage the business since she was young, and was a good businessman. It was precisely because of this that Su Qian Shan was extremely disappointed with Yan Yu Qi.

Fortunately, his daughter quickly came to her senses and promptly stopped her horse from leaving the cliff.

”Old Master Su!” Before anyone could say a word, before the Shardbearer had even taken a seat at the door, he hurriedly said, ”The war in the north has been so intense that I have been too busy to touch the ground. The marriage of these two children has been put on hold.

”What are you talking about, Shardbearer? Business is important. I should have come first.”

Su Qianshan welcomed her courteously, but inwardly, he was sneering at her. This old fox, the Shardbearer, had thought that he would be able to avoid annulling the engagement just by bringing out the war in the north?

”I received a greeting letter yesterday. I remembered the marriage of my children. Today, I came here in a hurry on leave, so please do not blame my family.” Seeing that Su Qianshan was unmoved and had no intention of continuing, the Shardbearer directly stated his purpose for coming.

”Well, certain details of the marriage should indeed be discussed.”

Su Qian Shan sat at the head of the table. Glancing at Yan Yu Qi, who was behind the Shardbearer, he looked down and said, ”The House of the Shardbearer [1] is a place that calls for food. My Su Family is a business that cannot afford to afford such a high price.”

This marriage was something that Su Qianshan had loved and doted on his daughter, so he had given up on his old face to discuss with the Shardbearer Kingdom and had even given up on the Thirteen Salts of the East.

To say that he couldn't reach her was to give face to the Shardbearer.

In terms of family background, the Su Clan did not lose to the Yan Clan. In terms of wealth and influence, the Yan Clan was far behind them.
