Goddess Atlas, Starting from the Queen

Chapter 31 After King Xiaoyao dies, you will marry into the Wang family

The Xiao family had beautiful ideas, but reality slapped them in the face. Xiao Qingyun stayed in the Xiaoyao Palace for ten years but did not find the magic left by the old Xiaoyao King.

As Xiao Qingyun grew older, people in the Jiangnan area gradually started to gossip about her.

After all, the Xiao family is a prominent family. The eldest daughter of the Xiao family is already 24 years old and has not yet married. As a result, she has been staying in the Xiaoyao Palace. People will always have some associations.

At this time, the Xiao family felt a little embarrassed again, so they wanted Xiao Qingyun to return to the Xiao family and marry her off quickly.

However, Xiao Qingyun refused to come back and get married no matter what.

The Xiao family has sent many people to find Xiao Qingyun and urge her to come back, but Xiao Qingyun ignored them all.

If it weren't for the fact that King Xiaoyao was seriously ill this time, Xiao Qingyun would not have returned to Jiangnan in order to find a famous doctor to treat King Xiaoyao.

As soon as Xiao Qingyun came back, the Xiao family saw an opportunity, and some aristocratic families also saw an opportunity. These days, there was an endless stream of people coming to propose marriage, and the Xiao family's door was almost broken down.

Even though Xiao Qingyun and Lu Wenhao had an engagement, those people didn't care about it at all. Xiao Qingyun died before she even got married, so it was obvious that Xiao Qingyun was still a virgin.

Moreover, the current Xiaoyao Palace is simply unable to intimidate those who want to marry into the Xiao family. In addition, Xiao Qingyun herself is a famous beauty in the Jiangnan area, so even more people are thinking about her.

Not to mention that she is innocent, even if she is not innocent, the people who want to marry her can line up to form a circle around the entire Jiangnan region.

If Lu Wenhao were still alive, or if Xiaoyao Palace still had a pillar, perhaps they would still worry about what Xiaoyao Palace would say, but now there is only one dying man left in Xiaoyao Palace, and it has completely lost its deterrent power. They don't take Xiaoyao Palace seriously at all.

After hearing Xiao Yanchang's words, Xiao Qingyun still said calmly: "Dad, it seems that it was you who asked me to stay in Xiaoyao Palace to find the immortal magic of Lu Xianren."

Seeing Xiao Qingyun still arguing with him, Xiao Yanchang slammed the account book in his hand on the table, "Enough!"

After Xiao Yanchang roared, he immediately calmed down his inner emotions, then stared at Xiao Qingyun and said, "Qingyun, ten years have passed. If you could find the magic left by the old King Xiaoyao, you should have found it long ago."

"Since nothing has been found, it proves that the old King Xiaoyao has destroyed all those immortal arts books. Since those immortal arts no longer exist, what's the point of you staying in the Xiaoyao Palace?"

Just as Xiao Qingyun was about to say something, Xiao Yanchang immediately said, "Wang Yuntao of the Wang family is about your age. He has always been in love with you and has never married. He only has two concubines now."

"The Wang family has produced a Tianshu. As long as the Xiao family can marry into the Wang family, they will definitely be able to enter the court."

"After King Xiaoyao dies, you will marry into the Wang family."

"Dad, I..." Xiao Qingyun was about to speak when she was interrupted by Xiao Yanchang.

"I'm not discussing this with you. This is settled."

Xiao Yanchang deliberately chose to wait until Prince Xiaoyao died before letting Xiao Qingyun get married. On the one hand, it was because there was no one left in Prince Xiaoyao's mansion, and no one would say anything at that time.

After all, everyone in Xiaoyao Palace died, so others can't still bring up the engagement between Xiao Qingyun and Lu Wenhao.

At the same time, this was also to prevent Xiao Qingyun from continuing to make excuses. Xiao Qingyun said a few days ago that King Xiaoyao was seriously ill. After all, she had been a disciple of Lu Xianren for a few days. If she left King Xiaoyao's Mansion at this time, others would say that she was heartless and ungrateful.

In that case, she would wait until King Xiaoyao died before marrying. Now that King Xiaoyao was dead, no one would say she was heartless and ungrateful.

As the head of a business family, Xiao Yanchang was very familiar with what was happening in the capital. He knew very well that King Xiaoyao only had less than two months left, and he could still afford to wait for two months.

Xiao Qingyun's expression was calm from beginning to end, as if she had already accepted her fate. Xiao Yanchang then said, "Okay, go and do your thing."

Xiao Yanchang was not worried that Xiao Qingyun would go to the capital again. If Xiao Qingyun still wanted to go to the capital, then let her go.

After all, the Xiao family had an engagement with someone from Prince Xiaoyao's Mansion. Now that Prince Xiaoyao passed away, the Xiao family should send someone to take a look. It just so happened that Xiao Qingyun was the representative of the Xiao family.

After hearing what Xiao Yanchang said, Xiao Qingyun didn't say anything more. She turned around and left Xiao Yanchang's study.

Not long after, a servant from the Xiao Mansion hurried into Xiao Yanchang's study, "Master, this is bad! The young lady has run away from home again!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yanchang, who was looking at the account book, said nonchalantly, "Let her go."

He had already guessed that Xiao Qingyun would most likely go to the capital again. After all, Prince Xiaoyao was almost dying, and she had to go and see him. Their Xiao family would also send someone to attend Prince Xiaoyao's funeral. After hearing Xiao Yanchang's words, the servant was stunned for a moment. He had obviously not expected their master to actually let their eldest daughter leave the Xiao Mansion.

At this moment, Xiao Yanchang suddenly thought of something. He looked up at the servant and said, "Go and call Tianzong."

"Yes, sir."

The servant immediately turned around and left. Not long after, a handsome young man in white brocade clothes appeared in Xiao Yanchang's study.

As soon as Xiao Tianzong entered the study, before Xiao Yanchang could speak, he asked, "Dad, why did you let my elder sister leave the Xiao Mansion?"

The marriage between the Xiao family and the Wang family has basically been settled. Xiao Qingyun finally came back, but his father actually released Xiao Qingyun again.

If he lets her go, will the marriage still be possible? He still hopes to get close to the Wang family and become an official in the court in the future.

Xiao Yanchang put down the account book in his hand and said calmly, "King Xiaoyao is dying, so let her stay in the Xiaoyao Palace for a while. After all, she was King Xiaoyao's disciple for a few days. We should send someone to check on her."

Xiao Tianzong said worriedly, "But what if she still doesn't want to return to the Xiao Mansion after King Xiaoyao dies?"

Xiao Tianzong is now afraid that Xiao Qingyun will suddenly disappear, which will end the possibility of marriage between their Xiao family and the Wang family.

Originally, Xiao Qingyun was not the only woman in the Xiao family. If it was just a simple marriage, the Xiao family could also send other women to marry into the Wang family. However, the eldest son of the Wang family liked Xiao Qingyun and would not marry anyone else. There was nothing they could do about it.

Xiao Yanchang glanced at the impatient Xiao Tianzong and said, "Take a first-class expert with you to the capital."

Hearing Xiao Yanchang's words, Xiao Tianzong was slightly stunned. He immediately understood what Xiao Yanchang meant. He said happily, "Dad, I understand. I will go to the capital right away."

His father's meaning was very simple. If Xiao Qingyun still didn't want to return to the Xiao family after King Xiaoyao died, then he would bring her back by force.

Although Xiao Qingyun had been a disciple of the Old Xiaoyao King for a few days, they did not think that Xiao Qingyun had learned any magic from the Old Xiaoyao King. Not everyone can learn magic. Even the Old Xiaoyao King's sons did not know magic. How could Xiao Qingyun, a woman, learn anything from the Old Xiaoyao King?

……

In the blink of an eye, a few more days passed.

Xiaoyao Wangfu.

Lu Ming rarely came out of the room today. Feeling the warm sunshine, Lu Ming felt a lot more comfortable.

He felt like he was going moldy after practicing in the room every day.

At this time, a fragrance wafted from the backyard, where perfume was being processed and made. The entire Xiaoyao Palace was filled with fragrance these days.

Lu Ming had nothing to do, so he walked towards the backyard to see how the perfume was being made.

Soon, Lu Ming arrived at the backyard. Su Wanyun was discussing something with Song Yongliang. When Song Yongliang saw Lu Ming coming, he quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Su Wanyun turned to look at Lu Ming and was about to speak when Lu Ming spoke first, "Sister Yun, how many bottles of perfume has the palace produced now?"

Su Wanyun replied: "More than 500 bottles."

They were worried that the method of making perfume would be leaked, so they only used servants in the palace to make it. In addition, they had just started making perfume and were not very familiar with it in all aspects, so the output was very small.

After hearing Su Wanyun's answer, Lu Ming thought for a moment and said, "More than 500 bottles are enough for promotion."

Perfume cannot be promoted all at once. It definitely requires a certain amount of investment in the early stages, such as giving it away for free trials.

Su Wanyun said, "I was just discussing with Shopkeeper Song how to promote these perfumes, but we haven't come up with a good idea yet."

As Su Wanyun finished speaking, Lu Ming asked, "Sister Yun, where do you think the nobles and dignitaries like to gather the most?"
