Chapter 69
After Chu Yuan finished offering incense, an old man with a cloth bag and a full face of white beard appeared, picked up the Geng Tie of the two of them, saw the date on it, and began to count.

The oil lamps in the ancestral hall swayed from time to time under the breeze.

Everyone held their breath and looked at the old man cautiously.But each has plans in his heart, which family's lady did Chu Yuan decide to get married so eagerly.

In Duke Chu's mansion, the sky is about to change.

Halfway through the calculation, the old man frowned, making everyone look puzzled.Could it be that the marriage is not successful?
After waiting for a long time, the old man finally put down the Geng Tie and said: "A first-class marriage, a good match from heaven, good luck."

As soon as these words came out, Old Madam Chu had a rare smile on her face.

Chu Yuan on the side was calm as usual. This so-called old man with white beard was found by someone, and he paid enough money to stop talking in advance.

So no matter what the test results are today, in front of the Chu family, it is a very auspicious first-class marriage.

He never believed in the so-called fate, and no accidents were allowed in what he wanted to accomplish.

The Chu family dispersed one after another, just looking at the eyes of everyone, this is destined to be a sleepless night.

The old man with a white beard followed Duke Chu. Chu Yuan thought that this man was greedy and wanted to ask for more rewards.

Immediately, he motioned to Chi Yan at the side to take some reward silver.

The old man took the silver and put it in his rag bag, but he still didn't leave, instead he said: "Your nobleman, I have a few words to say."

Chu Yuan never believed the words of these so-called charlatans, so he just said politely: "Please tell me, old man."

The old man stroked his beard, and said: "Just now I counted it as the gengtie of the married couple, both of whom died young."

As soon as these words came out, Chi Yan next to him immediately reprimanded angrily: "Bold!"

Chu Yuan waved his hand, signaling the old man to continue.

The old man continued:
"If the date of birth on the Geng post is correct, this man should have passed away more than two months ago. But now, it seems that the nobleman is in good health, and if he wants to be auspicious, he has his own destiny."

Chu Yuan couldn't help thinking of the fatal assassination he encountered more than two months ago. If Xia Keyu didn't show up in time, he might have already returned to the west.

He was silent for the moment.

Instead, he asked: "Then dare to ask the old man, that woman?"

The old man smiled darkly and said: "The old man just said that the two are a first-class marriage, a good match from heaven, and good luck. I think there is a good life in heaven, and it is not something we and other mortals can predict."

Immediately, he stopped talking, turned around and strode out.

Chu Yuan wanted to ask again, but stopped thinking about it. As long as he lived, he would protect her and never let her suffer any grievances.

next day
Early in the morning, people from Duke Chu's mansion notified the Xia family of the auspicious omen of marriage.

In the entire Xia family, only Xia Fengyuan was the happiest. He had already pulled people from Duke Chu's mansion to discuss the date of engagement.

Xia Keyu saw everything in his eyes, and looking at Xia Fengyuan's appearance, he probably did not miss the silver taels from Duke Chu's mansion.

Sooner or later, she had to find a way to get the money back.

Just when Xia Keyu was thinking hard, someone in the palace sent a verbal order, saying that His Majesty invited Xia Keyu into the palace.

Xia Keyu was well aware of her purpose of entering the palace, but she still calmly asked Qing Ya to dress herself up.

When Xia Keyu entered the palace, he really saw the man he saw in the restaurant that day - the eldest son of Koryo.

In addition to the officials, there are also the crown prince, the third prince, and the fifth princess who is full of displeasure.

"Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor, Your Majesty Wanan~" Xia Keyu first saluted the Emperor.

Without waiting for her to salute the prince beside him, the prince had already stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Master Yong'an, excuse me~"

The prince didn't know anything about Duke Chu and Xia Keyu's marriage.He has already decided that if his father decides to marry Xia Keyu to the son of Gao Li in a while.

He will definitely jump out and express his heart.

Even if he was scolded and punished by his father, he would not hesitate.The governor of Yong'an County has helped him, and he will never stand by.

The crown prince had already said that Xia Keyu would be excused, and the rest of the three princes could only follow suit.

"This is the county lord Yong'an of our Great Zheng Kingdom, who is both talented and beautiful~" The emperor on the dragon chair introduced cheerfully.

As long as the son of Goryeo is willing, it's just a county head.

The fifth princess next to her resisted the urge to roll her eyes, as long as the crown prince was very satisfied with Xia Keyu, she would be free.

The Crown Prince of Gaoli was naturally very satisfied with Xia Keyu, and immediately asked: "I wonder what this county lord is good at?"

In his perception, Xia Keyu is that kind of extremely calm and mysterious beautiful woman.

Xia Keyu glanced at him, deliberately pretending not to understand: "Who is this?"

The third prince on the side hurriedly introduced: "This is the eldest son of Goryeo~"

The Crown Prince of Gaoli smiled and nodded at Xia Keyu, pretending to be affectionate and said: "I heard that women in the Central Plains are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and my Highness also knows a little bit about it. I wonder if I can have the honor to compete with the county magistrate?"

Xia Keyu pretended to be surprised and widened his eyes, then shook his head, turned to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Yong'an feels that this matter is not in compliance with the rules."

The fifth princess on the side couldn't bear it any longer, and asked, "What's wrong with this?"

The son of Gaoli had seen the arrogance and irrationality of the fifth princess, and he didn't show it on the surface, but he secretly swore in his heart that he would never marry such a woman as his concubine.

Xia Keyu shook his head and said: "Not to mention that men and women have different seats for seven years, after all men and women cannot be kissed."

On the contrary, the emperor smiled lovingly and said, "You are all young people. You should get married when you go to college for men, and you should get married when you go to college for girls. It doesn't matter."

Just when the prince was struggling with the timing of his appearance, Xia Keyu said indifferently: "But, Your Majesty, Yong'an is already engaged."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone present was surprised.

The fifth princess' face changed drastically, Huo Di stood up immediately, and asked, "What are you talking about?! Didn't you divorce the Wei family already?"

Xia Keyu pretended to be shy and said: "After Yong'an divorced, he found another lover."

The fifth princess was furious and said aggressively, "Who are you engaged to?"

Her unscrupulous and forceful behavior made the prince of Korea beside him frown, showing disgust.

At this moment, a calm voice from outside came from outside the hall: "It's the Duke of my country."

Hearing his voice, everyone present was taken aback.

After all, Duke Chu is the only one who can directly enter the palace without notification.

Amidst the astonishment of the crowd, Chu Yuan slowly appeared, and only cupped his hands to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, I have learned from you that I do have a marriage contract with County Lord Yong'an a long time ago."
