Uncle (11)

Lord Wan felt a little confused.

How could he just say it casually and promise one of the daughters in the mansion to someone else?

The prince sitting in the wheelchair was still talking about his own conditions naturally: "Don't worry, sir. Although the little prince has a disease in his legs, he is not unable to walk. It's just that it's a little uncomfortable to move, and it doesn't affect his offspring."

After Lord Wan reacted, he hesitated and whispered: "But I am only a fifth-rank official. If I want to promise the girl in the mansion to the prince as a concubine, wouldn't it be a bit unfair to the prince?"

"How can it be a concubine?"

When Duan Qingen said this, Lord Wan was stunned.

Can't even have a concubine?

That's not possible!

He has three daughters in the Wan Mansion. The second daughter has been promised. The eldest daughter is his only legitimate daughter, and the little niece is the last blood of his brother left in this world. If he becomes a concubine without knowing the truth, even if he becomes the prince's concubine, how can he be worthy of his brother.

Before Lord Wan could shamelessly say that he had agreed by accident, Duan Qingen had already spoken again: "A girl raised by you, naturally, can't be bad. How can she only be a concubine? When I ask for a wife, I naturally ask for a princess."

Princess? ? ? ! ! !

Lord Wan was shocked.

He almost thought that there was something wrong with his ears, and hurriedly asked: "Your Highness said that you want to marry my daughter from the Wan family and make her a princess?"

Duan Qingen: "Of course."

He asked again: "Are you willing?"

"Yes, of course I am willing."

Lord Wan was an honest man, and he didn't realize that Duan Qingen was tricking him. After being confused, he quickly agreed: "It is a blessing for our family to be able to marry you."

Princess, this is directly considered a member of the royal family. If you have a son in the future, you can inherit the throne, and your daughter can be named a princess.

Moreover, Duan Qingen has a handsome appearance, good conversation and elegant temperament. Although his legs are diseased, it doesn't affect his offspring. He is not one of those people who have a hard life and can only stay at home because of his legs being sick.

Just look at King Yao now. He can go wherever he wants and there are servants serving him wherever he goes. Isn't it obvious?

Duan Qingen didn't wait for Lord Wan to think about it, but smiled and said, "In that case, this marriage will depend on you, Lord."

Although Lord Wan was a little confused by the word "Princess", he was still rational. Seeing Duan Qingen say this, he asked again:

"The second girl in my house is already married, only the eldest girl in my first room and the third girl in the second room have not been decided. I wonder which girl the prince wants to marry."

In his heart, he naturally wanted Duan Qingen to talk about his eldest daughter. After all, she is his biological daughter. Even if he loves his niece, it can't beat the blood relationship. But at the same time, Lord Wan is not unloving to his little niece. He doesn't want to take away her opportunity, so he lets Duan Qingen speak for herself.

Duan Qingen didn't say anything, just said: "I also know the situation of the Wan Mansion. These two girls were raised by the adults. I trust the adults. I will marry whichever girl the adults want me to marry."

These words made Lord Wan involuntarily happy.

Yes.

The prince came to ask for marriage, but because of his character.

His character and talent are so good that the prince came to ask for his daughter.

This is really hard for people not to be proud.

He didn't say death, but touched his long beard and said to Duan Qingen; "Then let us discuss it in our mansion and give the prince an answer after some time."

"Naturally."

The prince, who was handsome and elegant, smiled and nodded in agreement, took off a jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Lord Wan.

"This jade pendant was given to me by my father. I have been wearing it all the time. Since I have decided to marry you today, I will leave this jade pendant to you as a token of love."

Master Wan held the gift from the emperor in his hand, and he was so excited that he couldn't help but sigh.

His Royal Highness Prince Yao was indeed polite and took the initiative to give him a token of love.

Since others had given it, of course he had to give it to them too.

Lord Wan looked around, thought about it, and simply took off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it over:

"Your Majesty, my jade pendant is not as good as yours, but this jade pendant was also given by my father. I will use this jade pendant as a token of trust. Please don't despise it, Your Majesty."

"No, it's my honor to be your junior."

Although the prince sitting in the wheelchair couldn't move his legs, he stretched out his slender hand, took the jade pendant with his white fingers, and carefully put it in his pocket.

Looking at Duan Qingen's quick movements as if he was afraid that he would regret it, Lord Wan seemed to have noticed something wrong in his dizzy head, but soon, this wrong was covered up after seeing the smile on Duan Qingen's face.

Duan Qingen was happy, and he gradually became happy.

If this marriage is discussed, it is a high-class marriage for them, the Wan family.

After all, Prince Yao is a royal family, and he is seeking a wife and princess. The highest official in their Wan Mansion is Lord Wan himself, but he is a fifth-rank official. Even being a concubine to Prince Yao is a bit low, let alone being a wife.

Not to mention that their daughter or niece has a good husband, their Wan Mansion will be regarded as people of status wherever they go in the future, which is also a good thing for the next generation of descendants.

And such a great thing was all because King Yao respected him!

It's like in modern times, a deputy county magistrate was doing his job, and suddenly the mayor said that he admired him and wanted to be his son-in-law.

It's like gold falling from the sky.

No, let’s be my son-in-law!

Until Duan Qingen said goodbye and left, Master Wan couldn't help but look at the jade pendant carefully.

This was given by the Supreme Emperor! ! !

Treasure, treasure!

He didn't dare to take such a precious thing with him, so he carefully found a box for the brushes in the study, put it in, and hid it carefully.

After making sure everything was safe, he went to the old lady's yard with a dazed expression.

The old lady had just finished her meal when he passed by. When she heard that her son was coming, she quickly called him in.

"What, His Highness King Yao is gone?"

"Yes, he's gone."

After Mr. Wan finished answering, he looked at the little girls and mothers waiting around him: "My son has something he wants to say to his mother."

The old lady understood immediately and looked at the servants around her: "All of you, please go down."

After all the servants left, Master Wan told him with uncontrollable excitement that King Yao admired him and asked to marry a girl from Wan Mansion to be his princess.

The old lady was worthy of being a sophisticated person. When she heard that he was asking to marry a girl from the palace, not Mr. Wan’s daughter, she immediately said: "It seems that this prince is indeed a good man. You only have two daughters. If you marry a bastard, He has asked for nothing before telling the outside world, but what he said this time is to marry the daughter of the family. If your daughter is engaged, won't she also have a niece? "

Mr. Wan didn't think so much before, he was happy because of his patronage.

Seeing that his mother had finished speaking and asked him which one he wanted to marry, he hesitated again.

The old lady also guessed a bit when she saw his appearance.

She sighed: "You don't have to feel embarrassed. It's human nature to love your own children. This is a good marriage. If you go beyond your own daughter and give this marriage to Siqing, I'm afraid your wife and Siyuan will feel unhappy and may have other thoughts. "

She has never liked Wan Siyuan very much, just because she feels that this granddaughter is just like her mother. She only cares about herself and cannot suffer any loss. She has to step on her two younger sisters.

If he knew that there was a good marriage now, but his father gave Wan Siqing as his niece, he didn't know what the fuss would be.

Mr. Wan didn't think much about it. Hearing what his mother said, he felt a little ashamed: "Siqing's parents are gone. My son promised her mother that he would take good care of her."

"It's nothing. If you want to take good care of Siqing, just find a good marriage for Siqing in the future. When a woman gets married, most of the time it depends on whether her mother's family will support her. If you go beyond Siyuan, I'm afraid your wife will If there is a grudge, even if Siqing marries into a high-ranking family, it is hard to say how her life will be without the care of her mother-in-law. "

The old lady put down the prayer beads in her hand, stood up and said: "Give this marriage to Siyuan. Your wife will be happy, and Siyuan will be happy too. When the eldest sister Siyuan gets married, she can arrange the marriages of the remaining two girls. , when the time comes, you must find a good marriage for Siqing."

After finishing speaking, thinking of Mrs. Wan's behavior, she was still a little worried and said: "If you and your wife are interested in Siqing's marriage, don't forget to come to me. Only if I nod my head can you Yes, you know?"

"Yes, my son will definitely do as he is told."

Master Wan got the solution from his mother, and his mood became high again. When he returned, he told Mrs. Wan about this great news.

"Is what the master said true??"

As he expected, Madam Wan opened her eyes wide in surprise: "Hey!! This is really a great thing, princess! Our daughter is going to become a princess?!"

Mr. Wan touched his beard and felt proud, but he still said in a tone of "This is nothing, this is nothing":

"Exactly, His Highness Prince Yao admired my character and liked my paintings, so he proposed to marry our family. All the betrothal tokens were changed."

Madam Wan's attention was not focused on his character and his paintings. She quickly stood up and walked outside; "I want to tell Yuan'er the good news. My daughter is going to be the princess, and I am the princess." 's mother."

The ignored Master Wan: "..."

He touched his chest which felt a little uncomfortable, then simply got up and went to Aunt Wan Sihe's place.

At any rate, she would still praise him a few words.
