Chapter 200 200: Sincerely ask for marriage

Zhao Qingya didn't know whether to laugh or cry looking at Qiao Jingru who was eating happily: "Eldest young mistress, aren't you afraid that Aunt Yao will take the opportunity to poison it?"

Lu Xiang also thought it was delicious.

"Aunt Yao doesn't dare to joke about her life, so feel free to eat."

No matter what kind of person this uncle of the Yao family is, the food he brought is indeed delicious.

Zhao Qingya pursed her lips, and put the preserved fruit back in her hand.

Eating Aunt Yao's food, she is afraid of getting stuck in her throat.

The matter of Liu Anyao's affair with someone in the Su Manor has become a joke for the people in the capital. In the past, no one dared to talk about the high-ranking daughter of the prime minister's mansion, and it would be an unattainable existence. , When you go down to the market to hang out, you have to say a few words to everyone.

Liu Anyao has been locked up in the yard since she started her career. She has been crying and making noises these days, and she has lost a lot of weight. Madam Liu is both angry and distressed. What is hateful is that the restless aunts and concubines in the mansion see her The daughter's distress was even more gleeful, and the firecrackers were almost set off to celebrate.

Liu Xiang wanted Liu Anyao to die to prove her innocence, but Mrs. Liu was willing to do so, she managed to get Liu Anyao to compromise and save her daughter's life, and the final result was to send Liu Anyao to a nunnery to become a monk.

"With Liu's family protecting her, no one dares to make her suffer except she has no freedom in the nunnery." Liu Xiang looked at Mrs. Liu who was making trouble in his study, and said.

Mrs. Liu burst into tears after hearing this: "Why don't you suffer and not be punished? Yao'er is already suffering when she becomes a monk. I don't care. Even if she becomes a monk, she can't build a Buddhist hall for her in the mansion alone for her to live in. ?"

"Nonsense, leave Yao'er behind, will the reputation of the other children in the mansion be lost?"

Madam Liu said resentfully: "My daughter's reputation is gone, who cares whether the reputation of concubine daughter is good or not, my daughter is not happy, and they should not think about it."

Liu Xiang flicked his sleeves angrily: "Idiot, you don't care about the concubine, don't you even want your own son's reputation?"

It's not that he values concubine daughters too much, but that the daughters of the Liu family are the best pawns for marriage. In the future, Yao'er will be implicated, how can the high family value them?

Does she know how big the loss is here?

As the concubine of Xiangfu, Yao'er has the most thoughts on her from Xiaohua. If it wasn't for the age difference between her and the Second Highness, she would be the best candidate for the Second Imperial Concubine, but even if she couldn't become the Second Imperial Concubine, he would give Yaoer The chosen husband must also be the greatest help for the second prince in the future.

But now it's all ruined.

When mentioning her son, Mrs. Liu suddenly wilted like an eggplant beaten by frost.

She wished that the concubine's reputation would be ruined, but she couldn't ignore her own son.

"My poor daughter." Mrs. Liu burst into tears.

Liu Xiang said with a sullen face: "What's the use of crying at this time? Why didn't you use your brain when digging a hole for Lu Xiang in Su's mansion? Why didn't you discuss this matter with me in advance?"

"Concubine Shu's order, do we dare not obey?" Mrs. Liu said righteously.

"Nonsense, it's just a woman's benevolence. There are countless ways to deal with that Lu Xiang, and you chose the stupidest one."

Mrs. Liu was questioned like this and quit: "How stupid, if it was an invitation to a banquet at Liu's mansion, would she, Lu Xiang, come? What's more, revenge must be revenged, but Xiangye has always taught, Yao'er did something wrong, That **** Lu Xiang, I won't let her go."

Liu Xiang was so angry that he couldn't speak, he sat on the chair and gasped for breath.

Suddenly the voice of the steward sounded at the door.

"Master, there is a young man surnamed Xiao outside the mansion asking to see him."

Liu Xiang said irritably: "No, no, no, no one now."

"He said he was here to help Xiangye solve Miss Fifth's problem?"

Ms. Liu's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and before Liu Xiang could speak, she hurriedly opened the door of the study: "Please invite him in."

Liu Xiang moved his lips to say something, but in the end he didn't speak, and waited quietly for someone to come.

Mrs. Liu stood at the door and watched anxiously. She didn't know who Mr. Xiao was, but if he could solve her daughter's problem, he would be a good person.

Soon, the manager led a handsome man over.

The coming man was dressed in a black uniform, with bushy sword eyebrows flying obliquely into his temples, and his thin lips were lightly pursed into a line, showing a heroic spirit.

Mrs. Liu's eyes flashed with amazement.

This man is three points more handsome than the second prince.

"Madam, this is Mr. Xiao." The manager introduced.

Xiao Muheng clasped his fists at Mrs. Liu and saluted: "I've seen Mrs. Liu."

"Okay, come in and talk." Mrs. Liu turned sideways and said.

Xiao Muheng then entered the room.

The manager retreated, and Mrs. Liu closed the door and entered the study.

Xiao Muheng bowed to Liu Xiang, and Liu nodded slightly to him: "Sit." Then seeing Mrs. Liu who was still in the study, he frowned and said, "Let's talk about something, you go back first."

Madam Liu stared and refused to leave.

"I'm not leaving. He's here to solve Yao'er's problem. As a mother, I can't listen." Then, she sat down on a chair beside her, staring at Xiao Muheng with a pair of eyes, and asked with a gentle face: "Xiao Muheng Son, have you thought of any good ideas?"

"I don't dare to say it's a good idea. The student came today to please Liu Xiang and his wife. I want to marry Fifth Miss."

Liu Xiang was startled: "What?"

He suspected that something was wrong with his ears.

When Yao'er's innocence was compromised and everyone avoided him, this person actually opened his mouth to ask for marriage?

"No matter how unfortunate my daughter of the Liu family is, I won't allow you to make fun of it at will."

Xiao Muheng said: "Master, Xiao is sincerely asking for marriage, and it is definitely not a joke. Besides, I am a businessman, and I dare not come to the Prime Minister's house to make such a joke."

"why?"

As soon as Liu Xiang finished speaking, Mrs. Liu said excitedly: "Why do you care so much? Are you really willing to marry my daughter?"

"Really, Ms. Liu's reputation was damaged because she was framed by others. It's really pitiful that Ms. Liu was slandered and tortured while her enemy was at large. As for the Prime Minister asking why the student came to propose marriage..." Xiao Muheng said, standing up and facing Liu Xiang made a deep bow and said: "The student is a student who participated in the Qiu Wei this year. He has always wanted to follow the way of the Prime Minister but has no chance. If he can become the son-in-law of the Prime Minister, the student can be regarded as a leaping dragon."

His purpose is very simple, it is to rely on the big tree of Liu Xiang.

If Xiao Muheng hypocritically said that he fell in love with Liu Anyao at first sight instead of her not marrying, Liu Xiang would not believe him.

But he said it directly, which made people feel relieved.

"Are you asking the truth to help you cheat in this year's imperial examination?" Liu Xiang looked at Xiao Muheng seriously, and asked.

Xiao Muheng smiled confidently, and said: "Students are confident in their talents, and they don't need to cheat to pass the exam. They just hope that with the help of the prime minister, their careers will go smoothly."
