Huo Jiwen came to propose marriage so quickly, and also sent a sky-high betrothal gift, which made the Shi family very happy and excited, and their faces were even brighter.

Although Shi Lingqiao was unhappy and dissatisfied that Huo Jiwen's mother-in-law did not arrange the marriage for them, she was still happy and sweet that Huo Jiwen cared so much about her.

She thought about making the old witch proud for a while now, and after she married in, she would definitely drive a wedge between the old witch and her husband.

Let the old hag regret what she looked down on and what she did today.

Because Huo Jiwen often went to Shi's house to have private meetings with Shi Lingqiao, so when he came to hire him, the Shi family ignored the rules and asked Shi Lingqiao to come out to meet Huo Jiwen.

Seeing this, several family members who were specially called by Huo Jiwen to come over to support the scene, as well as the more famous matchmakers in the capital, were a little speechless.

Where are unmarried men and women like this? What is it called?

At the same time, there is also some contempt, these two people really don't care about anything, no wonder they can commit adultery.

Huo Jiwen and the Shi family set a date for their marriage, which will be at an auspicious time two months later.

This made the people who followed were speechless again, the time between the two of them getting engaged to getting married was too short.

How many people even guessed in their hearts, could it be that Shi Lingqiao has it in his stomach, so they can't wait?

However, they have a good relationship with Huo Jiwen. Although he is irrational about marrying a wife, it does not affect that he is the future Duke of Zhen, and he is worthy of their friendship.

So I have a lot of thoughts in my heart, but no one is stupid enough to say it.

Just as they were talking about completing their marriage, suddenly the butler of the Shi family rushed in.

"Patriarch, son, a father-in-law has come to the palace and said he wants to find the son to proclaim the decree."

These words made Patriarch Shi and Huo Jiwen stunned, obviously very surprised.

Then the eyes of both of them showed joy. They both thought that the emperor should know that Huo Jiwen came to Shifu to hire him, so he issued an imperial edict to grant marriage.

Huo Jiwen thought to himself that his uncle still loves him so much.

So he quickly took everyone out to receive the imperial edict.

Also because he was happy, he didn't notice that the chief eunuch's attitude towards him was more alienated and indifferent than before.

After the people knelt down, the chief eunuch opened the holy decree and read it.

After he announced the decree, all the kneeling people were dumbfounded.

Huo Jiwen had a look of disbelief on his face. He really didn't expect his uncle to deprive him of his position as the eldest son on the day he was appointed.

It was also stated in the imperial decree that he voluntarily gave up his position as the heir to the Duke's Mansion in order to marry Shi Lingqiao.

Before his mother said that he would go to his uncle to deprive him of his position as the eldest son, but there has been no movement these days, and he thought she was just scaring him.

Who would have thought that his mother and uncle would be so ruthless, stabbing him directly in front of so many people.

How could he hold his head up in front of the Shi family, Ling Qiao and his friends?
I used to say how to hurt him, is that how it hurts?
The more Huo Jiwen thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and at the same time, there was a kind of panic again. Wouldn't his mother and uncle really want to deprive him of his position as heir?

No, it's impossible, he is the only blood of father, only he is qualified to inherit the Duke's mansion, they must have done this to teach him a lesson.

Huo Jiwen kept comforting himself in his heart, and then his emotions stabilized.

Shi Lingqiao was so angry that his lungs would explode after hearing the imperial decree.

The old emperor was so cruel, he even came here on the day they were hired.

This is to tell everyone how much Huo Jiwen will pay to marry her despite the old witch's objection.

But she couldn't resist, she could only bear it.

With her fingernails in her palms, she has written down this hatred, and when she enters the Duke's mansion, the old hag must repay it double.

How excited and happy the people of the Shi family were before, how flustered they are now.

This is because the emperor is dissatisfied with their Shi family.

The aristocratic family members who followed were terrified, obviously they did not expect that the emperor would deliberately make such a move, it was a blatant slap in the face of Huo Jiwen and Shi Lingqiao.

I heard that the eldest princess went to the palace to meet the emperor on purpose a few days ago, it must have been discussed between the two.

The emperor's decree was definitely to vent his anger for the eldest princess.

It seems that their previous plan had to be cancelled. If Huo Jiwen was abandoned by the emperor and the eldest princess, then there was no need for them to make friends with him again.

Of course, we have to wait and see, after all, the eldest princess only has such a son, and Huo Jiwen still has hope to become the Duke of the country in the future.

A group of people have different thoughts.

Seeing them kneeling all the time, the chief eunuch said, "Mr. Huo still hasn't accepted the order to thank you?"

Hearing the chief eunuch call himself Mr. Huo, Huo Jiwen was not used to it and felt uncomfortable. He was no longer Mr. Huo.

Although he was not happy, and even held back his anger, he still did not dare to provoke the imperial power.

First thank the emperor for his grace, and then stand up to accept the imperial edict.

Originally wanted to say a few words with the chief eunuch, who knew that the other party didn't even look at him, turned around and left.

Huo Jiwen was so angry that he fell on his back, and secretly scolded this slave for looking down on others.

After the person who announced the decree left, Shi Lingqiao adjusted his mood.

She stepped forward and looked at Huo Jiwen worriedly and guiltily, "Awen, it's all my fault."

"You don't even want the position of the son for me. I am very moved and very happy, but I don't want to involve you."

She bit her lip and looked at him reluctantly, "Let's forget about our marriage today, as long as you don't marry me, go back and beg your mother and the emperor, they will restore you to the position of son."

Shi Lingqiao was afraid that Huo Jiwen would blame himself if he lost his position as the son, so he deliberately retreated to advance.

For his sake, she was so kind to him by making concessions and grievances for him.

With Huo Jiwen's temperament, not only would he not agree to her proposal face to face, but he would definitely continue to make their marriage.

Shi Lingqiao also thought in his heart that Huo Jiwen was the only son of the Duke of Zhen and the eldest princess. Even if he was deprived of his position as the eldest son now, he could still be the Duke of Zhen directly in the future.

This was just a blow to her by the old witch and the emperor, and it was also to force Huo Jiwen to give up marrying her.

But she just won't do what they want, she must let Huo Jiwen marry her and let the old witch die.

Sure enough, Huo Jiwen was moved.

He couldn't help holding Shi Lingqiao's hand, "Don't think so, I said that no matter what the price is, I will marry you."

"Before my mother asked me to choose between you and the eldest son, I chose you without hesitation."

He looked at her tenderly and said, "It's impossible for me to give up on you now for the sake of being the son of the world."

He has already paid such a high price to get it, so it is naturally impossible to give up Shi Lingqiao.

Then Shi Lingqiao declined again, but Huo Jiwen insisted that he must marry her, so there was no problem in their marriage.

Seeing Huo Jiwen and the two of them like this, those aristocratic children couldn't help but feel their teeth hurt.

They really couldn't understand that Huo Jiwen would even give up his position as the heir to the Duke's Mansion for a woman with a low status, a bad reputation, and a pretty face.

With the status of the heir to the Duke's Mansion, what kind of woman do you want?
Even if Shi Lingqiao fell in love with Shi Lingqiao so badly, then she can be brought in to be a concubine, and she will be more pampered in the future, why bother to fight against her own mother and insist on marrying in as a wife.

It's all right now, the eldest princess and the emperor will come directly to the most ruthless.

Now that the point is over, Huo Jiwen is still determined to marry Shi Lingqiao and give up the position of son...

They felt that Huo Jiwen really seemed to be passed on from the outside, and his brain must be flooded.
