Chapter 86
The left servant of the household department is only a third-rank official. To marry him as a princess is already a high ranking.

But she refused.

Once, twice...

She always answered the same.

unwilling.

She gave a reason, saying that she already has someone she likes.

Who do you like?
Xiao Shilian?

He couldn't think of anyone else but him.

But what's so good about him, what can a down-and-out person give her, could it be better than being his princess?

If he insists, how can she escape.

But after knowing that she jumped into the lake because the eldest lady in the mansion wanted to promise her to her nephew in Yangzhou, he dismissed the idea.

Regarding the throwing into the lake, he knew that she was not someone who would easily compromise.

If she dies, who will be his princess.

It's just that he doesn't understand where he lost to him.

"My lord, General Sheng is here." Qi Kang's voice came from outside the door.

He collected his thoughts and said to Qi Kang, "General Sheng, please come in."

So Qi Kang said to the humanity waiting outside the door again, "General Sheng, my lord invites you in."

"The prince is inside?"

Qi Kang nodded.

"Then why is the door closed?"

This...Qi Kang smiled wryly, he didn't know how to answer General Sheng's question.

Qi mansion.

"Ma'am, there is another letter from Yangzhou."

Sui Yun handed the letterhead she just got to Qin Yurong.

Qin Yurong knew what it was for without taking it apart.

The first part of the letter is concerned about her aunt's health and life, and the second part is to urge her aunt, why hasn't she agreed to promise Qi Ye to him.

Seeing that Qin Yurong frowned, Suiyun asked, "But what's going on in Yangzhou?"

Qin Yurong handed the letter in her hand to Sui Yun, her tone was a little impatient, "What else can I do?"

Sui Yun took the letter, and after reading everything without missing a word, he folded the letter again.

"Young Master Hongjia," she looked at Qin Yurong, "Isn't Fifth Miss unwilling?"

As soon as Sui Yun mentioned the fifth young lady, Qin Yurong remembered how she was blackmailed yesterday.

Suiyun was not around yesterday, so Qin Yurong told her what happened yesterday, especially the words she said to threaten her.

Sui Yun asked, "Fifth Miss really said that?"

"Sister Suiyun, there can be a lie." Chanjuan on the side also said, "Miss Fifth made Madam very angry yesterday."

"Suiyun." Qin Yurong suddenly took Suiyun's hand, "You have many ways, you can think about it for me."

Sui Yun hesitated.

"My nephew is also stubborn. He said that if he is not allowed to marry Miss Fifth, he will cut off his hair and become a monk." How could her aunt watch her own nephew become a monk and become a monk.

"Sister Suiyun, you can think of a way for Madam!" Chanjuan also said to her from the side.

Sui Yun could only respond, "Let me think about it."

……

The next day, Qin Yurong sent a letter to Yangzhou, asking Hongjia to come and stay at the Minister's Mansion for a few days.

After receiving the letter, Hongjia immediately packed her bags and rushed to the capital.

When Qin Yurong saw Hongjia, she was surprised and asked why he came so soon. She thought he would arrive tomorrow at the soonest, and she didn't even tidy up the room.

Hong Jia didn't care, "Aunt doesn't need to worry too much, I can sleep anywhere."

During dinner, Qin Yurong asked him, "How is everything at home?"

Hong Jia only nodded, "Everything is fine."

Because Hongjia's two hands can't use any strength, the maid beside him can only feed the food to his mouth.

"Hongjia, you must..." Qin Yurong looked at Hongjia who could only hang her hands by her side, and hesitated to speak.

Hong Jia asked her, "Why didn't Auntie say anything?"

"Do you insist on marrying Miss Fifth?" Qin Yurong asked him.

Hongjia nodded without hesitation, "Hongjia won't marry a non-fifth sister."

"What's the matter, Auntie?" Hongjia asked, "Is Fifth Sister unwilling to marry me?"

She didn't tell Hong Jia about Qi Ye's throwing into the lake, so Hong Jia didn't know that Qi Ye didn't want to marry her.

"Does Fifth Sister despise my useless hands?" As he spoke, Hong Jia bumped his hands against the corner of the table, louder than ever.

Qin Yurong had never seen such a scene before, and she was immediately overwhelmed with fright.

"Quick...quick, grab him." She shouted to Chanjuan who was standing beside her.

Chanjuan immediately stepped forward and grabbed Hongjia, "Master Hongjia, stop quickly."

Because of Chanjuan's stop, Hong Jia stopped her hands.

Qin Yurong looked at Hongjia's red and swollen hands from the impact, and couldn't help sighing, "You child, you hurt yourself like this before I finish my sentence."

Hongjia took his hand back, and he said to Qin Yurong, "Auntie, my hand doesn't hurt."

Qin Yurong only thought that he was comforting herself, "How can it not hurt?"

Hongjia lowered her eyebrows and said in a downcast tone, "Auntie, my hands are useless, no matter what I do, they won't feel any more."

"Hongjia, my aunt doesn't know you..."

"Auntie, I'm fine." Hongjia interrupted Qin Yurong who wanted to explain, "It's been many years, I'm used to it."

Qin Yurong originally wanted to persuade him that there are many good girls, so why should you be obsessed with that one person.

She was still hesitant about Sui Yun's method, but now that Hongjia is like this, how can she, as an aunt, be able to bear to see his pain again.

"Hongjia." Qin Yurong said, "Auntie promised you that she will fulfill your wish and betroth the fifth girl to you as a wife."

The slump on Hongjia's face immediately swept away, "Auntie's words are serious?"

"When did my aunt lie to you?"

Having got her aunt's promise, Hongjia was also happy, "I know that my aunt loves me the most."

After Qi Shilang came back, he went straight to the study. When Hongjia learned about it, he said to Qin Yurong, "Auntie, uncle is back. Hongjia is going to visit uncle."

"Go!"

Qin Yurong didn't stop her, but after Hongjia turned around, she motioned for Suiyun to follow Hongjia.

Sui Yun understood, "Master Hongjia, your lord should be in the study, I'll take you there."

"Master Hongjia, my lord is in the study." Yu Cai had seen Hongjia early this morning, so it was not surprising that he would appear here.

"I'll go and report for Young Master Hongjia."

After saying that, Yu Cai called out from outside the door, "My lord, Master Hongjia is here."

Qin Yurong had already told Qi Shilang that Hongjia would be coming from Yangzhou in the next few days.

"Please come in." Qi Shilang's voice came from inside.

"Master Hongjia, my lord invites you in."

Qi Shilang didn't know that Hongjia wanted to marry Qi Ye, he just thought he was visiting the capital.

-

"Have you met Uncle?" Qin Yurong asked him.

Hongjia nodded, "Go back to Auntie, I've already met."

"Auntie." Hongjia called again.

Qin Yurong looked up at him, "What's the matter?"

"I want to go around the mansion." Hongjia said.

"Go." Qin Yurong called Sui Yun again, "Sui Yun."

Sui Yun immediately stepped forward, "Ma'am."

"This minister's mansion, Hongjia, is not very familiar with him yet, so you can accompany him!"

Sui Yun nodded and obeyed, "Yes, ma'am."
