C457 To make you happy (2/2)
”So the person that Prince Jiayu wants to marry is you.” Lian Yan Qing glanced at that direction, turned around, and said in a low voice.
”Then what is father going to do this time?”
Lian Yanqing was stunned. When Lian Xiyue heard this news, she wasn't afraid in the slightest? Without even a trace of nervousness, he paused for a moment and said:
”I naturally don't want you to marry into the Xiao family. This must be the scheme of the Xiao family and the Lu family. If you were to go, you might not be bullied by the people from the Lu family.” Lian Ruyue was the direct daughter of the Prime Minister, and was also so intelligent; she even easily received the title of County Master of First-grade, which was not simple at all. This kind of daughter, he couldn't even plead for, how could he be willing to marry her to Pingzhou?
It did not surprise Lian Ru Yue in the slightest that Lian Yan Qing would make such a decision. This was because she was someone who was of value to the Prime Minister's Estate.
”From the looks of it, I have to get the nine halls to come down and ask for your hand in marriage before I can get out of this predicament.” Lian Yan Qing's thoughtful expression as his gaze slowly swept over Lian Ru Yue's face.
Lian Ru Yue chuckled and said, ”Father, the one who chased the Ninth Prince out of the Prime Minister's house was you.”
Lian Yan Qing's face flushed. ”It's not that you don't know the situation back then, but His Majesty …”
”Then why does Father think that the Ninth Prince is the kind of person who would go and summon them when he's gone?” Lian Ru Yue said coldly, ”Besides, even father knows Lu Jingyao wants to marry me, yet you sent the Ninth Prince to the emperor at this time to request for a marriage. What do you want the Ninth Prince to think?”
”…” Lian Yan Qing paused. That's right, this was Ninth Prince, not someone beside him. Would Ninth Prince take the risk in front of the Emperor in order to protect Yue'er and not go to Pingzhou?
He frowned deeply and said, ”The only thing we can do now is to try our best.” As he spoke, he took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve.
”What is this?” Lian Ruyue asked.
”I got Doctor Lu to prescribe this medicine. As long as you take it, you'll look like someone who's sick. When the time comes, the emperor will grant you the marriage, and we can refuse.” Lian Yanqing said.
Even the medicine had been brought here. It seemed that his father had really made preparations with both hands. He had said that he would ask the Ninth Prince to marry him in order to pry into the relationship between her and the Ninth Prince. After she had rejected him, he had immediately taken out the medicine.
In any case, he would not let the Prime Minister's family suffer a loss.
”Did father think about it? If the reason for my daughter's marriage was because she was sick, then wouldn't I be passed on to someone whose body isn't good and who can't get married? ” Lian Ruyue kindly ”reminded” him.
Indeed, when Lian Yan Qing heard this, he was stunned. That's right, he wanted to keep this daughter of his because she was useful. But if someone said she was an invalid, who would dare to take her in the future?
When Lian Yan Qing saw that Lian Xiyue was still so calm and assured, he thought to himself, don't tell me that she had already thought of a way to protect herself?
Lian Ruyue looked at the porcelain bottle, then stuffed it back into Lian Yan Qing's hands and said, ”Father, I don't need to use my body as a wager to reject Lu Jingyao.”
”Then what can you do?” Lian Yanqing asked.
”When the time comes, I only need Father to stand by my side unflinchingly.” Even though his father was always scheming and scheming, always thinking for his own sake.
However, she was his direct daughter. Plus, now that Shiya was crippled, the other sisters were not on good terms with him, so he had no choice but to rely on her as his direct daughter. Therefore, they were on the same side, and she wasn't worried at all.
”Don't worry, I won't let you marry into the Lu family. You don't need to worry about what Lian Xiang will say.” After Lian Yanqing left, Feng Yunzheng walked over and stood by her side as he spoke.
”I don't have anything to worry about. It's just that I don't want to let someone who disgusts me get away with this. Being manipulated by others in my previous life has already made me hate this feeling. Now, you still want to use me to control my fate, you're just looking to die. ” Lian Ru Yue said with a snort.
”You just have to have fun with Eleven and the rest of them. I'll make arrangements.” Feng Yunzheng blinked his eyes and somewhat mischievously said, ”Baoqing is satisfied.”
”No way!” Lian Ru Yue stubbornly looked like a child as she raised her head and said to him, ”I also want to come together. I like the feeling of personally taking action.”
”Hehehe …” Feng Yunzheng laughed lowly and said, ”Alright, are you happy?”
He was really obedient to her.
On the high platform, a pair of fists were secretly clenched. His pair of eyes was fixated on this side. Seeing Feng Yunzheng's smile that was like spring, Liang Runan's heart was filled with an uncomfortable feeling.
”Do you know who gave the horse the jade pendant at the Ninth Prince's waist?” At this moment, a voice sounded beside her ear.
Liang Runan was startled. He quickly turned his head and saw Xiao Rou standing next to her. Liang Runan quickly turned his body, as if he was afraid that someone might see through his thoughts.
She said, ”I have seen this jade pendant up close. It was hand-polished, and the quality is not bad, but it was polished very ordinary. It is not compatible with his starved temperament, so it must have been given to me by a very important person.
”No.” Xiao Rou shook her head. ”Your guess is half correct. It was indeed an important gift, but she is the one!” Xiao Rou looked at Lian Ruyue, who was about to leave the high platform.
When Liang Runan turned his head and saw Lian Ruyue, her heart suddenly tightened, ”Lian Ruyue gave it to me?”
Xiao Rou nodded and said, ”Yes.”
Liang Runan stared at Lian Ruyue's silhouette, his brows slowly knitted together.
”Actually, I heard from the other princes that Lian Fu Yue has been pestering Ninth Prince. Ninth Prince is very passive, so he had no choice but to give in. You should still remember the ugly things she did in Yao City right? She was obviously obsessed with the young master of the Su Family in Yao City, but she said back, that it was my aunt and cousin who framed her, and in the end, they were completely erased from existence. My aunt and cousin were actually wrongly accused. ”
