Jiapingguan Chronicle

Chapter 704 A Little Accident

Before they had time to discuss the contents of the confession, they saw Dai Yi walk in dejectedly.

He said before that he would go home to discuss the divorce with his father, but he didn't know how the two people discussed it.However, looking at him now, it is very likely that the father and son broke up unhappy.

"Why are you so depressed? Didn't you say that you want to discuss the divorce when you go home?" After Dai Yi finished his ceremony, Shen Cha let him sit down, "I thought you would stay at home for one night, why are you coming back now? Did you guys have a bad talk? okay?"

"It's true that the conversation was not very good. My father agreed to withdraw the engagement. He also had the same idea, but he didn't agree that the Mu family should come forward."

"Don't agree with the Mu family to come forward? Why?"

"He thinks that if the Mu family proposes to withdraw the engagement, it will bring bad reputation to the subordinates. If they want to talk about marriage in the future, it may be difficult."

"It's quite a long-term thinking." Seeing Dai Yi's wry smile, Shen Cha raised his eyebrows, "Is it because of this that we quarreled?"

Dai Yi held the ginger soup that Mei Lin handed him, blew it lightly, and then took a sip cautiously.

"It's not too noisy, it just doesn't make sense." He nodded towards Shen Cha, "The subordinate asked him, if the Dai family voluntarily divorced, what would the reputation of the Mu family's sister be? Mu's sister is a girl, isn't it? Should people pay more attention to reputation than rough people like me? He said, it is the Mu family who loves vanity and wants to marry into a noble family. Why should I ruin my reputation? It's important."

Song Qiyun briefly explained the current situation to Prince Dai, Wu Qingruo, and His Royal Highness Prince Ning, and frowned disapprovingly when he heard Dai Yi's words just after he finished speaking.

"Xiao Dai, your father's words are not very kind. The Mu family proposed to divorce because they were worried that any changes in the future would implicate you or your Dai family. Not to mention the kindness of the house, it is also considered for you and the Dai family. If someone bites him to death and refuses to withdraw the engagement, you have nothing to do, right?"

"Your Highness is right, and my subordinates think so too, but..." Dai Yi sighed helplessly, and shook his head lightly, "I can't say such things, and I can't tell him the inside story. If Tell him, he will be frightened, and he will not be able to sleep at night."

"No one of you can convince anyone, so why don't you calm down?" Seeing Dai Yi nodding, Song Jue touched his chin, "That's fine, maybe the old man will figure it out. Then again, If the old man persists and refuses to give in, and he must come forward to annul the engagement, what should you do?"

"What else can I do? He is my father, and I can't force it, so I can only solve it slowly." Dai Yi shrugged, "If you really can't solve it, you can only think of other ways, anyway, you can always find a solution way."

"My father is just worried that you will be affected by this, and you won't be able to find a good marriage in the future." Shen Cha sighed, "But what do you think?"

"Subordinate..." Dai Yi thought for a while, then looked at everyone in the warming room, "Subordinate does not want to get married, nor does he want to return to Xijing, he just wants to stay at the border."

"Then what about your father?" Shen Cha looked at Dai Yi, "In more than ten years, he will get older and need your care."

"Back to the general, my father said that he will stay at the border with me in a few years." Dai Yi sighed, "Actually, the old man also understands that when I go to the border, the marriage with the Mu family will also fall through. No one in the Mu family will allow their favorite girl to marry to the border. Therefore, the dissolution of the engagement is inevitable, but he just can't swallow it now, and always feels that it is his face that is brought up by the other party."

"Why do old people care so much about this illusory face? Can face be eaten?" After Song Qiyun finished speaking, he felt that he had said something wrong, and waved his hands at Dai Wang Ye and Wu Qingruo, "Uncle Wang, Uncle Wang, forgive me, nephew I'm not talking about the two of you."

"Some elderly people really care about saving face, you are right." Dai Wang waved his hand and glanced at Dai Yi, "If there is any problem, please ask your general to find Xuanyuan , this is a problem they have to solve, and let them deal with it themselves."

"My lord Huidai, this matter can still be resolved by my subordinates, don't bother the old general Xuanyuan." Dai Yi bowed slightly, "This subordinate has already thought about it, if it really doesn't work, I can only resort to outsmarting."

"Hey, boy, you've made progress!" Song Qiyun leaned over and patted Dai Yi on the shoulder, "Come on, tell me, how do you plan to outwit him?"

"My lord, what else can I do, of course steal the marriage certificate!" Dai Yi raised his eyebrows at Song Qiyun, then raised his head to look at Shen Haolin, "I have come to this point as a last resort, and I implore the Duke to come forward."

"Yes!" Shen Haolin nodded, and agreed to his request, "But this is the next step, it can solve the temporary problem, and the follow-up needs to be solved by you father and son together."

"If my father can figure it out, that's the best. If he can't figure it out, he can't delay the big deal. The sooner this kind of thing is solved, the better."

"Hey! I have a way to fool around and get your father to agree to let you come forward to break the engagement." Song Qiyun glanced at Mei Zhu who was standing beside him, "How about asking sister Mei Zhu and Xiao Dai to go back? "

"No, my lord, you don't want to dig a hole for your subordinates, you can't afford it." Dai Yi refused without even thinking about it. He had already felt the sharp gazes from Mei Lin and Mei Zhu sisters, and he broke into a cold sweat. popped out. "This matter, the subordinate will solve it by himself, and dare not trouble General Mei."

Shen Cha shook his head slightly, disapproving of Song Qiyun's idea.

"The girl from the Mu family cares about her reputation, but we, Xiaozhu, care even more. Xiaoyun, if that's the case, don't talk nonsense in the future."

"Understood!" Song Qiyun smiled at Shen Cha, "I'm just making an analogy."

"One lie needs to be covered by a hundred lies. Such an approach will leave a lot of troubles. Isn't this king an example?" Ning Wang half leaned on the soft couch, "If you told the truth back then, this king It's not as good as it is now. Listen to my king's persuasion, don't think about anything, just ask Mu Sheng to talk to Dai's family in person, tell all your difficulties, and let your father make a choice." He chuckled He said, "As for whether Mu Sheng will tell your father the truth, and how he will persuade your father, it depends on his ability. What you have to do now is to go to Mu's house and ask Mu Sheng to come forward."

"Yes, this subordinate is going!"

Dai Yi finished his ginger soup in a hurry, stood up, saluted everyone and prepared to leave, but when he reached the door, Shen Cha stopped him.

"Meilin, you and Xiao Dai go to the old general Xuanyuan's place, Mu Sheng probably won't leave the city tonight."

"Yes!"
