Mrs. General is a little sweet

Chapter 185
Three days later, Master Cheng came to the gate of Prince Ji's Mansion with a feeling of uneasiness. He used to be happy every time he came here, but he couldn't be happy today because he came today to retire the engagement.

When the doorman of Prince Ji's mansion saw Master Cheng coming, he brought people into the mansion directly. When King Ji learned that Master Cheng was coming to visit, he immediately came out.

"Brother Cheng is here, sit down quickly, sit down quickly." Prince Ji just came in from the door, and hurriedly greeted Master Cheng to take a seat.

"My lord!" Seeing that lord Ji was so enthusiastic, Mr. Cheng felt even more uneasy, thinking about what he was going to say next, his face darkened.

"Brother Cheng came to the door today, but do you want to discuss it?" Prince Ji sat on the main seat, raised his hand and signaled the maid beside him to serve Master Cheng a cup of tea.

"There is indeed one thing that I need to tell the lord." Master Cheng said with a very ugly expression, holding one hand on the teacup.

"If you have anything to say, let's talk slowly. Try this tea first to see how it tastes. This is a new one I got." Prince Ji saw that Master Cheng's complexion was not good, and he thought that there must be some problem with his business. He didn't take it to heart.

"Alas~" After listening to Prince Ji's words, Master Cheng put down the teacup he had just lifted up, looked at Prince Ji with a embarrassed face and said: "My lord, the dog has suddenly contracted a serious disease recently, and I have searched for countless famous doctors, but there is still no cure. Get better."

"What?" Hearing this, King Ji almost couldn't hold the teacup in his hand and almost dropped it on the ground, "Brother Cheng said that Young Master Cheng is sick?"

"That's right, I've seen all the famous doctors in the capital, and they all said they couldn't do anything." Master Cheng lowered his head, his eyes were covered with tears, and he looked very sad.

Prince Ji looked at Master Cheng's appearance, and thought to himself that he wanted to regret the marriage, which is why he made such a fuss. Since he was said to be ill, let people go and have a look.

"Brother Cheng, don't worry." Ji Wang comforted Master Cheng, and then told the housekeeper beside him: "Go to the palace and invite the imperial physician, let the imperial physician go and have a look."

"Yes, my lord." The butler got the order of lord Ji and ran out in a hurry.

A smile rose from the corner of Master Cheng's mouth. Unexpectedly, all of this was covered by Cheng Liang's words. Master Cheng quickly stood up, bowed his body and saluted Prince Ji.

"Thank you, my lord."

"We are almost becoming a family, Brother Cheng, you don't have to be so polite." Prince Ji looked at Master Cheng's appearance, and couldn't help feeling worried. If Cheng Liang was really terminally ill, then what should we do with this marriage.

After a long time, the steward of Prince Ji's Mansion came back with the imperial physician. Under the order of the prince, the imperial physician followed Master Cheng back to Cheng Mansion. After the diagnosis, the conclusion was that he was indeed terminally ill, and the imperial physician also had nothing to do.

"Father, what should I do? If my daughter marries, she will become a widow. If she dies before she gets married, then her life will be completely over."

When Princess Qinghe heard about this, she burst into tears, holding Prince Ji's arm with both hands, feeling extremely wronged, thinking of Cheng Liang's situation, she was unwilling to marry at all. Now I can't avoid it.

"What are you arguing about? What else do you want besides crying?" Ji Wang is annoyed when he looks at his own daughter now. If it wasn't for the vanity of this dead girl who insisted on spreading the dowry, she wouldn't have reached such a point.

Princess Qinghe retreated to the side after being yelled at by King Ji, and did not dare to approach any further, but timidly said: "Father, my daughter cannot marry him."

"There is a lot of rumors about this marriage. If we voluntarily withdraw from the engagement at this time, our palace will say that we are heartless and ungrateful."

In the current situation, if Prince Ji's mansion proposes to dissolve the engagement, he will naturally be drowned by the spitting stars, not to mention the dowry from the married family, he is really reluctant to part with it, but if he doesn't withdraw the engagement, he will harm his daughter again, and if the son-in-law is gone A woman who has no children in her husband's house will definitely not benefit him.

Princess Qinghe saw that her father was hesitant, so she had no choice but to beg her concubine mother. She ran to Concubine Ji, grabbed her arm, and cried, "Concubine mother, help my daughter!"

Also as a woman, Princess Ji naturally understood the situation her daughter was facing, but if the prince did not speak, she could do nothing but comfort her daughter.

"It's okay, it's okay, don't worry!"

"I didn't expect this kid to use this method." Qin Zhan had just returned from the palace and was drinking the chicken soup that Xu Yunyao had prepared.

"Who is the husband talking about?" Xu Yunyao felt puzzled, why did Qin Zhan say such a sentence inexplicably.

Qin Zhan looked up at his wife and smiled, and said to the servants in the room: "You all go down first!"

After hearing Qin Zhan's words, all the people in the room bowed and retreated. Only the husband and wife were left in the room, so Qin Zhan put down the soup bowl and continued talking.

"Cheng Liang, he said that he is terminally ill, and there is no cure for the medicine." Qin Zhan had a serious face, wanting to see what Xu Yunyao's expression would be.

"This method is not bad. It can safely withdraw the marriage." Naturally, Xu Yunyao would not be deceived by him, and she knew what she wanted to do as soon as she heard it.

"You girl, why are you not up to the mark at all?" Qin Zhan saw that he had not deceived Xu Yunyao, scratched her nose with his hand, and patted her on the head.

Xu Yunyao smiled at Qin Zhan, picked up the empty bowl in front of him, and handed it another bowl of chicken soup, "Who made your wife so smart, you can't fool me."

"All right, all right, my wife is the smartest." Qin Zhan took the chicken soup from Xu Yunyao, and praised Xu Yunyao by the way.

"You're the only one with a sweet mouth." Xu Yunyao said this coquettishly when she heard her husband's praise.

"It's sweet for your husband, Madam, you'll know if you taste it?" Qin Zhan put down the bowl and moved closer to Xu Yunyao.

Xu Yunyao watched Qin Zhan approach, then looked at the grease stains on his mouth, put a veil on his lips in disgust, and pushed him, "Don't be ashamed."

Qin Zhan was gagged by Xu Yunyao, unable to say anything, he continued to lean over, wrapped his arms around Xu Yunyao, pulled out one hand, pulled her hand off, and kissed Xu Yunyao.

Just when the two were about to continue, they suddenly felt a fiery gaze looking at them. The two embraced and turned their heads together, and saw a small group standing beside them, looking at them curiously.

"Father, mother, what are you doing?" Qin Ning asked Xu Yunyao and Qin Zhan with a puzzled face.

Seeing his daughter Xu Yunyao pushed Qin Zhan, Qin Zhan let go of his hand, picked up his daughter, squeezed her little face, and then responded, "Daddy and mother are playing What about the game!"
