Chapter 125 Showdown
"What? Propose marriage?"
Princess Boyang looked at her son who was talking in front of her and could not hear a word he said. She only heard the two words "propose marriage".
Lu Qingxiao frowned and looked at Duke Lu.
Duke Lu quickly woke up the princess and explained, "It's not time to propose marriage now!"
"So, the Jiang family girl doesn't mind your age?"
The eldest princess was so excited and thrilled that she even forgot that she had accidentally touched upon the point that her son cared about most.
old age.
Lu Qingxiao was full of helplessness, "Mother."
"Mother is here, mother is here." The eldest princess responded repeatedly, nodded, and stared at Lu Qingxiao.
Her son would usually call her "A Niang" only when there was something going on, and usually he would call her "Mother".
Lu Qingxiao sighed slightly: "I just want to ask you to take better care of her in the future, mother, and don't scare her. She..."
Lu Qingxiao originally wanted to say that she was timid, but Xiaoyueliang was not timid at all, and was even very brave.
Upon hearing this, the princess could no longer maintain her graceful demeanor. She clapped Duke Lu's hands with joy and almost cried.
"I have come to this day. My son has asked me to take care of the girl he likes!"
Lu Qingxiao couldn't help but looked away silently.
Duke Lu and Fu Li were actually both happy, but they were not as open about it as the eldest princess.
The princess was extremely happy at this moment, and couldn't help but ask Lu Qingxiao: "You, you just told her directly that you like her, wasn't she scared by you?"
"Why are you so reckless? You're not even as good as your father was..."
Duke Lu tried to save his reputation: "Your Highness, I remember that you were very satisfied with my pursuit of Your Highness."
The princess turned her head and gave Duke Lu a perfunctory look, "Don't mention it anymore. I was just giving you face back then."
Duke Lu suddenly felt as if he had been hit in the heart.
The princess stared at her son with fiery eyes, "Speak!"
"No, a little."
Lu Qingxiao originally wanted to say no, but when he thought about how she was crying because of him again, he thought there was probably a little bit.
"Oh my!" The princess was anxious, "Will Zhiyue ignore you from now on?"
Lu Qingxiao was helpless and glared at Duke Lu and Fu Li.
Duke Lu understood and walked forward to pull the princess to sit down. Fu Li brought another cup of tea to the princess and said, "Your Highness, please be patient. Please be patient."
The eldest princess knew that Duke Lu and Fu Li were helping Lu Qingxiao, so she had to patiently drink a sip of tea to interrupt the rhythm.
After finishing her tea, the princess started asking questions again: "Have you been busy these days? Otherwise, I will ask my brother to let you rest for a few days?"
"Marriage is a big deal, and we can't be careless about it."
"Since you are interested in the young lady from the Jiang family, then behave yourself and try to get her approval as soon as possible, so that I can come and propose marriage as soon as possible!"
"The Jiang family's little girl is so popular. If she is chosen by someone else, what else can I expect from you!?"
Lu Qingxiao could see that his mother was really anxious.
It's hard for my mother to tolerate him for so many years.
"Mother, I'm sorry to have made you worry about your son all these years."
Lu Qingxiao brought another cup of tea to the princess and stroked her hair: "Son will definitely help you achieve your long-cherished wish soon."
The eldest princess was a very sentimental person. Seeing her son suddenly being so considerate, her nose suddenly became tearful and she took the cup of tea.
Lu Qingxiao added: "This matter has been done in secrecy, please be patient and don't make it public."
The princess was stunned, put down her tea, and looked at Lu Qingxiao suspiciously: "Are you lying to me?"
"Could it be that the young lady from the Jiang family actually thinks you are too old and has already rejected you?"
"Are you trying to stall me here?"
Lu Qingxiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Am I so untrustworthy in your eyes?"
Fu Li also smiled and said something fair for her young master: "Don't worry, Your Highness. I am watching from afar. Miss Six should not be unhappy."
"Really?" The eldest princess looked at Fu Li in surprise.
Fu Li smiled and nodded: "Every word I said is true."
The eldest princess felt like she had received a blessing from heaven, and her joy was beyond words.
Lu Qingxiao paused and said, "I just want to trouble you with one thing, mother."
The princess became excited when she heard this. "Go ahead."
Lu Qingxiao whispered a few words, and the princess nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I've had this idea for a long time. Leave it to mother, don't worry."
-
After returning from Princess Boyang's mansion, Jiang Zhiyue felt a little absent-minded.
Sometimes he laughs, sometimes he is silent.
Changying was extremely anxious and didn't know what to do.
It just so happened that the old lady sent someone to invite Jiang Zhiyue to Chunhui Hall, saying that she had something to discuss.
Jiang Zhiyue sorted out his turbulent emotions and went to Chunhui Hall.
As soon as she arrived at Chunhui Hall, she saw Nanny Cheng nodding at her.
Jiang Zhiyue nodded in understanding, and when she entered, she threw herself into the old lady's arms like a butterfly.
The old lady was a little unhappy at first, so she and the Duke of England went to the Princess's Mansion to express their gratitude.
Seeing her so coquettish look, I was at a loss for words.
He could only poke her head gently and said, "You! Why did you ask your father to go? Can't your grandmother go with you?"
Jiang Zhiyue leaned on her grandmother's arms and said in a tender voice, "Grandmother is our ancestor. For things like this, just ask Dad to come forward."
The old lady tapped her nose and said, "You, you, I asked you to come here for more than just this matter. Your sister has found some pretty good young talents, come and take a look."
"If you are interested, let's make an appointment to meet."
Jiang Zhiyue was stunned. He didn't expect his sister to be so fast.
Seeing Jiang Zhiyue was stunned, the old lady said, "Your father has also seen it."
Jiang Zhiyue was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to start.
Old Lady Yan was so perceptive that she could tell at a glance that something was wrong with her granddaughter.
She narrowed her eyes, her loving gaze now a little stern: "Achan."
"Grandma..." Jiang Zhiyue came back to his senses and blinked.
The old lady asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Zhiyue glanced at the booklet on the small table and said softly, "My granddaughter doesn't want to read it."
Old Lady Yan frowned slightly, "Nonsense, are you never going to get married?"
"It's just that your father misjudged the person, why do you have to..."
"No, no." Jiang Zhiyue quickly explained: "Grandma, I also have something to tell you."
Old Lady Yan looked at her and nodded: "Go ahead."
Jiang Zhiyue pondered his words for a moment, then said, "Today I went to the Princess's Mansion and wanted to return the warm white jade pendant with a carved dragon to the young general, but I failed."
The old lady was confused. She looked at her granddaughter in confusion: "What do you mean by failed to withdraw?"
"Why did you suddenly want to return the jade pendant?"
Jiang Zhiyue paused and lowered her head: "My granddaughter originally wanted to return the jade pendant because she didn't want to be involved with him anymore..."
The old lady looked at her granddaughter, who looked like she had done something wrong, and suddenly realized something and looked at her in surprise.
