“What?!” Zhu Yiqun immediately raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and he said angrily, “You dignified Nalan Mansion actually turns back on your words? It was also in this hall that day, it was Nalan Zhengze personally agreed with me, and the Sixth Prince was also there. After I went back, he reported the marriage to the noble concubine. Now that you want to go back to your words? Aren’t you afraid that the world will laugh at you when they know this? Aren’t you afraid that the noble concubine will punish you?”
Mrs. Nalan shrank her neck when Zhu Yiqun yelled, but she immediately felt confident when she saw the crown prince sitting aside.
“So what if he is the Sixth Prince? Didn’t you see the crown prince sitting next to you? Could the Sixth Prince and concubine be bigger than the crown prince?”
Having said this, Mrs. Nalan’s expression was immediately full of pride and smug, “Master Zhu, do you know why the crown prince is here today? His Highness is here to marry our Feixue. Do you still want to snatch the marriage from the crown prince?”
Zhu Yiqun was shocked when he heard the words, “What did you say?”
Zhu Zhongba was still out of the situation, staring straight at Nalan Feixue and wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth from time to time.
Nalan Zhengze coughed lightly, saying seemingly gently, “Master Zhu, we don’t want to embarrass you, but you can see that the crown prince is interested in our little girl, and he personally brought betrothal gifts to propose. Master Zhu, you don’t really want to disobey the crown prince right?”
“However, the marriage between our Nalan Family and Zhu Family was indeed agreed long ago. Since we agreed, we naturally can’t renege, let alone let Master Zhu suffer a loss. What do you think, Master Zhu? I will marry my third daughter, Nalan Hexi to your son. In this way, the Zhu Family and the Nalan Family are still in-laws, and the crown prince can also be satisfied. I wonder what does Master Zhu think of that?”
Zhu Yiqun’s complexion changed for a while. Looking at his son’s obsessive gaze at Nalan Feixue, Nalan Feixue’s outstanding talents, and thinking about Nalan Hexi’s sallow face, he felt unwilling in his heart.
No matter how, Nalan Feixue is better than Nalan Hexi and more suitable for my son.
But the crown prince is sitting there, if we offend the crown prince, and he condemns our Zhu Family…
Zhu Yiqun weighed in his mind, but in the end he could only compromise. He gritted his teeth and was about to agree.
Suddenly, the crown prince who had been sitting silently stood up and said, “Wait a minute!”
Seeing everyone looking over, Shangguan Qi smiled slightly, then he put his hands behind his back and slowly said, “Doctor Nalan, have you misunderstood my intention?”
“It is true that I want to propose the lady of the Nalan Family, but I want to propose to the Third Miss of the Nalan Family, Nalan Hexi.”
As he said, he nodded slightly at Nalan Zhengze, showing an expression as if he were noble, “Doctor Nalan, I want to marry Miss Nalan Hexi as my concubine, so Doctor Nalan please fulfill my wish.”
As soon as this remark came out, everyone present was stupefied.
There was a weird silence in the main hall, Nalan Feixue’s pitiful expression was still on her face. She was frozen at this moment. She looked like a joke.
Mrs. Nalan who was still smug just now was full of astonishment and disbelief. Her face looked pale.
Nalan Zhengze was even more shocked. Originally, he had prepared high-sounding words to say, but at this time they were all stuck in his throat.
