Chapter 841: Hesitating, Can I Cancel the Engagement?

Mrs. Tai answered carefully, trying her best to speak perfectly, for fear of accidentally offending this King Chen. I heard that this King Chen's temperament was unstable, moody, unpredictable and very bad. It was definitely not what he saw before his eyes. The lady saw the gentle look and the cold face of the lady just now.

"It will take a while, I am not in a hurry!" Chu Liuchen said nonchalantly, with a light smile but a hint of impatience.

The madam frowned secretly, not knowing where she had offended this evil star again. She didn't know what to say, so she could only follow Chu Liuchen carefully.

Chu Liuchen said nothing more and walked forward with his hands behind his back.

Seeing that he just walked around the yard and did not go to the main room, the wife breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that His Highness Chen Wang would enter the house regardless, and she could not stop him yet.

"You haven't decided on a heir yet?" Chu Liuchen suddenly stopped, glanced sideways at Mrs. Tai and smiled.

This was a difficult question to answer, and the wife became more and more cautious: "This matter is not urgent for the time being, we have to look at it again!"

"Who does Mrs. Tai like?" Chu Liuchen asked again.

"I...I didn't think about it for a moment!" How dare Mrs. Tai mention Shao Huaan's reputation.

"I haven't thought of it until now. It shows that the eldest son of your house is actually not very useful!" Chu Liuchen turned around and walked out of the courtyard gate.

The madam did not dare to answer these words, pretended not to hear, lowered her head and followed him out of the courtyard.

"Mrs. Madam, please help yourself. I'm going to see Miss Shao Wu!" After leaving the door, Chu Liuchen waved his hand like a master.

Madam Tai was supposed to follow, but what Chu Liuchen said just now made her unable to catch up for a moment, for fear that His Highness King Chen would say something sharper later.

"Third girl, please accompany His Royal Highness King Chen there!" After the concubine's thoughts changed, she calmed down and said to Shao Caihuan with a smile.

"Yes, grandma!" Shao Caihuan was overjoyed. After bowing sideways to the wife, she raised her head ecstatically. She finally had a chance to get along with King Chen, how could she not be happy.

Without her grandmother watching from the side, she could talk to His Highness King Chen.

"Does Madam Tai mean to keep an eye on me when she asks her to follow me?" Chu Liuchen glanced at Shao Caihuan lightly and asked.

"How dare I have such an idea? I'm just afraid that His Highness doesn't know the way." The Madam hurriedly explained, becoming more and more angry and not daring to take a breath. She really didn't dare to offend His Highness.

"Just find the way and let a servant lead you. Is it possible that the third lady in your house is familiar with me? Madam Tai will not care about the orphans. It will be inconvenient. I haven't gotten married yet. If If you ruin my reputation, I won’t be able to deal with you easily!"

Chu Liuchen said with an unhappy expression, his eyes swept over Shao Caihuan, cold and mocking, Shao Caihuan's face first turned pale, and then turned red.

Mrs. Tai's face turned blue and white for a while, and she felt ashamed. Even though she did have some such thoughts, it was really embarrassing for Chu Liuchen to say it to her face, not to mention the meaning of these words was very slap in the face. Even the madam couldn't stop him, and his face turned red in the end.

"Your Highness, I have been rude. Someone, please guide Your Highness to Quhuan Courtyard!" The Tai Furen lowered her head and said.

When Aunt Yu saw this, she hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way and rescue the madam.

After Chu Liuchen followed Nanny Yu and left, Shao Caihuan burst into tears. At that moment, she was so ashamed that she only thought that there was a hole in the ground and she could get into it and never come out.

"Why are you crying? It's useless!" Mrs. Tai said coldly. Shao Caihuan was not the only one who was embarrassed. She glared at Shao Caihuan. If she hadn't acted so obviously, she wouldn't have had such an idea. Now she is still being embarrassed by Chu Liu. Chen was severely humiliated.

"Grandma..." Shao Caihuan cried so hard that he couldn't stop crying.

"If you don't go back and cry again, your face will be ruined. No one will want you by then, and you don't have to think about what you can't get." The wife was in a bad mood, and she was not in the mood to comfort Shao Caihuan at this time. , scolded sternly.

After saying that, she turned around and left with the others, leaving Shao Caihuan alone, sobbing but not daring to shed any more tears. She was also afraid that the scar on her face would not heal.

Looking into the distance, she could faintly see Chu Liuchen's tall figure. Why could such a beautiful man belong to Shao Wanru? How could Shao Wanru be so kind to him? It was impossible for him. In fact, he couldn't ask for more. Duo, it’s not that he wants to be his concubine, but a side chamber isn’t allowed!

Stomping her feet vigorously, she turned around and ran towards her yard. She wanted to find her father and asked him to help her. Since her father had a way to get Shao Jie'er to give up the marriage, he should also be able to get one from the fifth sister. The location of the side room.

She is also a side chamber. She wants to enter Prince Chen's Mansion, not Prince Qingjun's Mansion...

The carriage moved forward slowly. It was very quiet in the carriage. It took a while before Mrs. Zhao sighed and looked at her granddaughter sitting beside her, with a little more affection in her eyes: "Ran'er, what do you think?"

"His Royal Highness Chen Wang should be satisfied with this marriage. Miss Shao Wu is the granddaughter of the eldest princess Ruian. The eldest princess and the Queen Mother have always been close. This reason has made Miss Shao Wu different from His Highness Chen Wang. Chen Wang Your Highness is very close to the Queen Mother, so you will also be close to the eldest princess!"

Zhao Xiran analyzed calmly, with a gentle face and a hint of indifference, as if the matter he was talking about had nothing to do with her.

"Is that all?" Mrs. Zhao shook her head. This was the first time she saw Miss Shao Wu. She slowly followed her thoughts and said, "They say Miss Shao is the most beautiful. In this situation now, there are endless possibilities in the future. In my opinion, Miss Shao Wu is even more outstanding. She has the alluring color of peony and the elegance of peony. Her natural charm makes people feel alienated. Qing Leng is a beautiful lady!"

"Grandma, although there are few beauties in this world, they will never be exhausted. With King Chen's temperament, beauties like this can enter his heart, but it is impossible for him to fall in love with her all the time." Zhao Xiran's thoughts were slightly similar to Mrs. Zhao's.

She has always been of extraordinary talent and knowledge. "If we talk about looks, let's just say that His Royal Highness, King Chen, is unparalleled in his beauty."

"Identity is part of the equation, and appearance is part of it. Having these always gives her some advantages over other women. And if her brother becomes the crown prince of Xingguo Gong, it will be even more beneficial to His Highness King Chen!" Zhao Xiran said again, these words Ji Ji stayed out of the matter, as if she was not about to marry into the Xingguo Duke's mansion and become Shao Huaan's wife.

Put yourself in an extraordinary position and look at this matter from a distance.

"If this is really the case, Ran'er's marriage is a bit inappropriate!" Mrs. Zhao frowned tightly. Her original intention in choosing this marriage was to make her granddaughter the wife of the crown prince of Xingguo. Yes, if he is just a eldest son, he is not worthy of being the eldest granddaughter of his own house.

Mrs. Zhao also regretted at this time, why she had agreed to her granddaughter's marriage in the first place. She originally thought that it would be easy, but because of King Chen's intervention, there were many uncertain factors.

Zhao Xiran shut up. When she didn't see King Chen, she thought that King Chen wouldn't care too much about Shao Wanru, but just now it seemed that King Chen should at least treat Shao Wanru a little differently, although she didn't know how much he cared. To some extent, or maybe it's all because of external conditions, but no matter what, she really cares about it at this time, and she couldn't get it wrong just now.

"If it's really not good, just reject the marriage, right?" Seeing that she didn't speak, Mrs. Zhao persuaded her in a low voice. In fact, Mrs. Zhao had never been very optimistic about this marriage, so it took so long. , it has been discussed for about three years, and it has only been concluded now. The reason is also because of dissatisfaction.

In the end, it was Zhao Xiran who relaxed and the marriage fell through again, but now Mrs. Zhao regretted it again.

"Although regretting the marriage is not good for women, we can think of a way to delay it first and let Duke Xingguo regret the marriage." Mrs. Zhao advised Mrs. Zhao out of fear that Zhao Xiran would feel aggrieved.

"Grandma, there is no need to retreat. In fact, there is nothing to gain! His Highness Chen Wang may not be interested in Miss Shao Wu for a long time. We will just wait and see." Zhao Xiran shook his head and said, with a flash in his eyes. Chu Liuchen's smiling face was extremely handsome and gentle. He seemed to be gentle to everyone, right?

"Are you really going to marry into Duke Xingguo's palace?" Mrs. Zhao sighed. She felt it was not good, but because she loved her granddaughter too much, she let her make the decision on this matter.

The eldest granddaughter has always been a sensible and talented woman. Although she lives in the backyard, her talent cannot be compared to that of her brother. My son has always said that it would be better if the eldest granddaughter were a man, at least the Shangshu Mansion could still be preserved. The status I had for twenty or thirty years was just a result of being born a daughter by mistake.

It is also because of these that Mrs. Zhao likes to discuss many things with her eldest granddaughter, and she also listens to her eldest granddaughter's words. She also loves her eldest granddaughter like a treasure. She does not worry about the marriage misunderstandings again and again. She always feels that her eldest granddaughter is in love with her. A granddaughter deserves better, but the eldest son of Duke Xingguo is actually not worthy of his eldest granddaughter.

When I went to Duke Xingguo's Palace to act with the wife of Duke Xingguo in a play, I wanted to compete for my eldest granddaughter. Obviously my eldest granddaughter deserved better, so why didn't Duke Xingguo's Palace give me the title of wife of the crown prince? Location.

"Grandma, don't worry. Once the marriage is settled, it's settled. No one can say what will happen in the future. Besides, it's also my father's wish to marry into the Duke of Xingguo." Zhao Xiran said with a smile, his eyes were gentle, his smile was light, and he didn't talk about it at all. I should be shy about this marriage.

It seemed as if what he was talking about was entirely someone else's business. Although his demeanor was extraordinary, it always felt like he was missing a bit of the gentleness of a girl waiting to be married.

Seeing that Mrs. Zhao still wanted to speak, Zhao Xiran smiled and shook his head, "Grandma, don't try to persuade me. I know what I am doing. For my father and for the affairs of our house, I have no complaints. No matter what happens in the future, I will have no regrets." Resentful!

It was possible only after entering the Xingguo Duke's mansion. She had to marry whether she wanted to marry or not, and the person she wanted was not just the crown prince's wife...
