Prosperous advisors

Chapter 44

But Mu Changming didn't care about these things at this time, and Ge Shuhan's sudden request shocked him so much that he blurted out without even thinking about it, "No!"

"No?" Ge Shuhan raised his eyebrows in displeasure, "Does the Sucheng Hou family think that this king is not good enough for Miss Mu Fourth? This king sincerely proposes to marry Miss Mu, and he will definitely treat Miss Mu as a concubine." Great sincerity too.Ge Shuhan held a high position and power in the Northern Han Dynasty, with one person under ten thousand.For the peace between the two countries, unless the one married is Huahuang's direct princess, even if she is a concubine princess, it would be considered good to be a concubine.

Mu Changming secretly swallowed his saliva with some difficulty, this marriage is absolutely unacceptable.Emperor Hua was suspicious by nature. Back then, the Gu family colluded with the enemy and treasoned the country. This enemy... refers to the Northern Han Dynasty.Although the two countries are now peacefully preparing to make peace.But the woman selected by the royal family is completely different from the pro-Ge Shuhan who came to ask for marriage in person.I'm afraid that if he is provoked by someone with a heart, he will be the second Gu family in Suchenghou's mansion.In addition, it is said that it is a great honor for a woman to get married. In fact, after the marriage, the world is far away, and it will not help the woman's natal family at all.The weight of concubine daughters and legitimate daughters is completely different.Therefore, no matter from which point of view, Mu Changming is absolutely unwilling to have anything to do with Suchenghou's Mansion and Ge Shuhan.

It was probably the first time in Ge Shuhan's life that someone rejected him so cleanly.A pair of sword eyebrows slightly raised with evil spirit, stared at Mu Changming and said, "Why? Why didn't Marquis Su Cheng say anything?"

Mu Changming calmed down, and said in a deep voice: "King Lie thinks highly of Marquis Sucheng's mansion, it is the glory of Marquis Sucheng's mansion. But... the marriage is likely to be decided by the emperor. King Lie went ahead without telling the emperor. It is not proper etiquette to come to Suchenghou's mansion to propose marriage."

Ge Shuhan frowned and said, "Didn't it be said that the first proposal of marriage is the respect for the woman?"

It seems that this brother Shuhan really attaches great importance to Qingyi. Mu Changming thought about it in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Although that is the case, the Suchenghou's mansion is a courtier after all, and the prince's marriage is not only related to the prince. In addition... ...The little girl is not in the mansion now, should the prince also ask her opinion?"

"She will definitely agree." Ge Shuhan said confidently.

Mu Changming frowned, why is this brother Shu Han so confident?Could it be... these two people really know each other?
Mu Chen, who had been doing the background all the time, said in a deep voice: "Father, why don't you go and bring Simei back now and ask Simei what she means?"

Mu Changming hesitated for a moment, looked at Mu Chen with admiration and said, "That's fine, you go and come back!" At the same time, he winked at Mu Chen with his brother Shuhan behind his back, Mu Chen nodded slightly, and immediately turned around and left .Looking at the back of the eldest son leaving, Mu Changming nodded.Recently, the eldest son has been doing better and better.

"Lord Hou, since His Royal Highness Lie Wang has something important to do, this junior will leave first." Li Su, who had been sitting beside him without speaking, also took this opportunity to get up and leave.The current situation is obviously not suitable for talking about retiring the engagement.Anyway, the attitude of the Li family has already been brought, and Mu Changming must have known it in his heart.Mu Changming also had no intention of staying longer, so he recruited the housekeeper to send Li Su out.

In Baoguo Temple, Mu Qingyi and Rong Jin were sitting opposite each other, playing chess with a piece in their hands.Rong Jin stroked the chess piece in his hand with one hand, and said with a smile: "It's really lively in Suchenghou's mansion these past few days. It's a pity that Qingqing missed many good shows."

Mu Qingyi calmly said, "What are you sorry for? The Ninth Young Master is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, so he won't even let Suchenghou's mansion go?" Rong Jin blinked, and looked at her innocently, " Isn't it clear that the people in Suchenghou's mansion are not pleasing to the eye? This son is very wronged."

Mu Qingyi smiled without saying a word, and just said: "Young Master, Qingyi has already prepared the things you need. I don't know what Qingyi wants, but Young Master, is he ready?"

Rong Jin was slightly taken aback, and Mu Qingyi caught a hint of melancholy and sadness from his always elusive expression.After a long while, Rong Jin smiled and said: "Sure enough, my master did not misread Qingqing. Don't worry, Qingqing, I have already prepared what you want. Here."

Young Master Rong Jiu took out a letterhead and handed it to Mu Qingyi, saying: "For this matter, I have put in a lot of effort. Qingqing must remember to repay this Young Master."

Mu Qingyi turned sideways and took a wooden carved box from behind, and said with a faint smile, "Isn't it both money and goods? Open it in half a month at most, and it's guaranteed to be the purest Youhan fragrance."

"It's really not the first time that Qingqing has cured Youhanxiang." Rong Jin looked at Mu Qingyi and smiled secretly, as if he had discovered some great secret of Mu Qingyi.

Mu Qingyi ignored it, and just casually wiped off the chess pieces on the chessboard and threw them into the chess box next to her, the intention of seeing off the guests was self-evident.Rong Jin naturally understood, got up with a smile, turned around and left with the box containing the faint fragrance.

Mu Qingyi looked down at the letter in her hand, her drooping eyelashes trembling slightly.

Half an hour later, when Mu Chen came in a hurry, what he saw was the ice-cold beauty of the always gentle and elegant fourth sister.

In the quiet and somewhat dark room, Mu Qingyi sat alone in the room, with an open letter on the table beside her.There were only a few words in the letter, but it was as if a sharp knife stabbed her blood-stained heart side by side.

In the 23rd year of Jing'an, the third day of September.Emperor Jing'an summoned Mrs. Zhang, Su Chenghou's wife, to see her.

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Madam Jing'an returned home.Xuan was imprisoned in the courtyard by Mrs. De'an.

On the seventh day of October, Concubine Rou Mu Feiluan secretly returned to the mansion to visit Mrs. Su Chenghou in person.

On the eighth day of October, Mrs. Su Chenghou hanged herself to death.

Below these handwritings, another line of annotation reads: "Mrs. Su Chenghou was suspected to be pregnant for one month before she hanged herself."

Seriously, this letterhead doesn't say anything except the last line of note.But in Mu Qingyi's eyes, it was enough.

Mu, Chang, Ming!

I definitely want you, Sucheng Hou's family, to be ruined and perish forever!
"Fourth Sister, are you there?" Mu Chen's voice outside the door awakened Mu Qingyi who had fallen into hatred.Mu Qingyi's eyes flickered slightly, and the sharpness of hatred in his eyes was suppressed.Mu Chen had already pushed the door open, just in time to see Mu Qingyi's ice-cold Ruoxue face and couldn't help frowning: "Fourth sister, there are too few people around you. I didn't meet a single person all the way in." Here. Where's that girl, Pearl?"

Mu Qingyi quietly put away the letter on the table, and said calmly, "I told her to go to the kitchen, why did the eldest brother come here suddenly?"

Mu Chen said anxiously: "Fourth sister, King Lie has come to the mansion to propose a marriage. Father told you to go back quickly, and you have to have a bottom line in your heart. According to what father means...he doesn't want you to marry into Beihan of."

Mu Qingyi was taken aback, this brother Shuhan's actions didn't seem to be purely for the sake of making friends, could it be that his cousin really has something to do with him?
