Chapter 297 Returning to Chaoyang City 17
After dinner, Dongfang Lie called his eldest son to the study.

"Father, what's the matter?" Dongfang Jingao felt a little ashamed in his heart. Although he respected his parents, he often disobeyed them. Moreover, he was away from home all year round and rarely took care of family affairs. He was really ashamed to be the eldest son.

"Ao'er, now that you've graduated, what are your plans for the future?" Dongfang Lie was relieved from the bottom of his heart. Of course he hoped that his son would inherit his father's career.

"I don't intend to go to court, nor do I intend to become famous." Dongfang Jingao said bluntly. Over the years, he has secretly established his own power for future contingencies, but he doesn't want people to know.

"You are my son, you can't be ordinary." Dongfang Lie said, if his son doesn't become famous, does he want to be mediocre?

"Father, I have let you down. I just want to be ordinary." Dongfang Jingao was not ashamed.

"You! You are so stupid." Dongfang Lie scolded angrily. Ao'er has been away for nearly ten years, and he has learned enough skills, and the water chestnut has been smoothed, but he has no ambitions.

"Father, don't talk about this for now, let me think about it again." Dongfang Jingao said, he didn't want to fall out with his father.

Dongfang Lie said: "There is one more thing. The current situation in the court is serious. His Highness has returned. The marriage contract between His Highness and the Dongfang family must be fulfilled."

"Father, His Highness the Third Highness has no intention of getting married, nor will he honor the engagement."

"Of course I won't let Zihan marry, not to mention that Zihan is born stupid, even if Nangongchen married Zihan according to the marriage contract, but Zihan disappeared, the Dongfang family would not be able to give it."

"Father, do you know that Zihan is dead?" Dongfang Jingao's heart was heavy.

"Zihan died? Did you find Zihan's body?" Dongfang Lie was not surprised, and he vaguely guessed the result.

"I haven't found it yet. In March this year, I asked the hexagram teacher of the college to divination for Zihan. After the age of ten, there is no number of hexagrams, and I will die early." Dongfang Jingao felt guilty. No.

"Since Zihan died early, we have to change the marriage partner to Ziyan for the present plan. Ziling's age is not suitable." Dongfang Lie had already thought about it.

Seeing his father showing no guilt or sadness, Dongfang Jingao felt chilled. His father only had power, glory and wealth in his heart.

"Father, to be honest, His Highness the Third Highness will not marry any of the daughters of the Dongfang family. If you want to preserve the face of the Dongfang family, I hope that your father will propose a divorce."

"No, the marriage contract was bestowed by His Majesty when Zihan was born, how can you withdraw the engagement at will!" Dongfang Lie disagreed, the Dongfang family had never had a princess.

"If father insists on going his own way, I'm afraid the gain will outweigh the loss. How can His Highness be at the mercy of others." Dongfang Jingao persuaded, and now that Chen is full of wings, His Majesty can't do anything about it.

Dongfang Lie's face changed slightly. He knew that Nangong Chen was not simple, so he had to be cautious about this matter.

"Let's not talk about this for now. You are now 20 years old and have reached the age of marriage. The sixth princess loves you, so you can ask His Majesty to marry you." Dongfang Lie said, Nangong Chen and the sixth princess were born of the same mother. In this way, they can be regarded as relatives of the king.

"Father, absolutely not, I have no intention of getting married at the moment, and my wife will never speak Nangongyu." Dongfang Jingao said firmly.

"Nonsense! To be married to the princess, how many people can't wish for it!" Dongfang Lie said angrily.

"I don't need my father to worry about my marriage. My son will go back first." Dongfang Jingao waved his sleeves and left.

Dongfang Lie was furious, but he couldn't do anything to his son.
