Marrying into a poor family

Chapter 405

Because Xiao Chenyu had to go to the government office for work, only Qin Xiang and Lu Jiu went to the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

When he came to Jiuwang Mansion again, Lu Jiu was still a little nervous and his steps were a little slow.

He actually knew what it meant for him to come today.

The two of them arrived at the hall where Princess Yaoxiang entertained guests. After the ceremony, they sat down and chatted.

Yao Xiang is very beautiful today. She wears a bun and a big peony on her head, which makes her look quite graceful and luxurious.

Lu Jiu couldn't help but take a few more glances. The nobility in Yao Xiang's body was indeed not something that ordinary women could develop.

Yao Xiang saw Lu Jiu's embarrassment from the corner of her eye, so she didn't force him and instead talked to Qin Xiang.

"I knew you were going to come today, and sure enough, you came."

Qin Xi smiled and said: "The princess sent us a letter so late, how could we not come?"

The slightest movement in the palace can cause great shock outside, but it has nothing to do with Qin Xiang, Lu Jiu and others, but Zhang Guiren is different. Her rapid rise to the top means the rise of the Zhang family again.

Yao Xiang just smiled faintly, her eyes drifted to Lu Jiu's face, and she happened to catch him looking at her. Lu Jiu was startled and immediately looked away. Yao Xiang couldn't help but purse her lips, and the smile in her eyes became even brighter.

"Now we don't have to worry too much about Zhang Guiren. She is not favored by the emperor, so she only focuses on currying favor with the Queen Mother. Because of her natal family."

Speaking of this, Yao Xiang glanced at Lu Jiu again. This time Lu Jiu did not dodge, because he knew that the Zhang family's affairs had the most direct relationship with him.

Yao Xiang added: "Because the Queen Mother does not care about the Zhang family in Dancheng as before, and the Zhang family is suppressed by several aristocratic families in Dancheng, it is still unclear whether Zhang Guiren's child can be born smoothly."

Qin Xiang's eyes showed surprise and asked: "What does the princess mean by this child?"

"Life in the palace is never smooth. Even the emperor can't do whatever he wants."

Later, Yao Xiang talked about the marriage between the young prince and Jiang Yue, saying: "The emperor wanted to arrange the marriage, but the queen mother seemed unwilling. She didn't know where she heard it, saying that Jiang Yue had some feelings for her brother-in-law Du Ziren. It was simply Damn it!”

Qin Xiang didn't quite understand and asked, "How could Marquis Jianyong let his two daughters marry Du Ziren?"

"The Du family has really been too crazy these years. A Duke wants to steal people from the young prince." Yao Xiang's face gradually turned cold and said: "You also know that we have protected this family. If I hadn't mentioned this marriage to her at the beginning, she might not have helped you design Huayi."

Qin Xiang nodded, feeling a little sorry for the young prince. Everyone was using his marriage to seek benefits.

"You don't have anything to be sorry for. He has never been able to decide on the young prince's marriage. It just depends on who he prefers to help him choose someone."

Marriage is a marriage between two people. How can it be based on the likes and dislikes of two men and women?
Family background, identity, and status are all ranked first. Being a good match is not just a decoration. When these are combined, we then look at the other person's character and so on. If the problem is not big, it will not be considered in the first place.

Yao Xiang was having a good conversation today, and she mentioned that the young prince would at least decide on a princess and a concubine.

Perhaps because they talked about some very relaxed and casual topics, Lu Jiu also relaxed a lot.

He was not disgusted by the topic of this woman. After all, he was a man who had spent many years in the limelight.

Unexpectedly, Yao Xiang suddenly changed the subject and asked Lu Jiu: "Today, in front of Qin Xiang, can you give me an accurate answer, is this marriage a success or not?" Lu Jiu was stunned for a moment. Qin Xiang didn't speak, and the room was a little too quiet for a while. Yao Xiang looked straight at Lu Jiu, giving him no room to ask for help or dodge.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he said: "You have already said that you can't decide the marriage of the royal blood, so you still propose the marriage yourself, how can you be like this?"

A faint sneer appeared at the corner of Yao Xiang's lips: "I have never cared so much, so don't use such excuses to excuse me. I'll ask you again, and for the last time, is this going to happen or not?"

Lu Jiu looked at Qin Xiang with pleading eyes, but Qin Xiang turned away and ignored it. This was a debt between the two of them, so they should settle it themselves.

"If you agree, we will get married. I will also promise to be good to you all my life and never bully you. If you don't agree, I will never miss you again. Thinking of you, we will break up. From then on, Let's live in harmony without seeing each other."

Yao Xiang said she didn't want to meet him, so there really was no need to meet him. After all, the status gap is huge.

Seeing that Lu Jiu seemed to be still hesitating, Yao Xiang felt a little bitter in her heart and said lightly: "I know, my reputation is not good, haha, I thought you wouldn't care."

Lu Jiu was anxious and said hurriedly: "I don't care about this. I can't marry into your palace."

Yao Xiang immediately followed: "It's not that you don't like me?"

Lu Jiu shook his head hurriedly, but his eyes were a little confused: "Where did I say that I don't like you? It's because our identities are too different."

He looked like this, which was rare. Qin Xi couldn't help laughing. It seemed that everything needed to be sacrificed.

Yao Xiang suddenly smiled, her smile brighter than ever before: "I heard that Dancheng is very beautiful. I wonder if I can get used to living in Dancheng's house or eating the food of Dancheng?"

Neither Lu Jiu nor Qin Xiang realized what Yao Xiang meant. It was Qin Xiang who asked first: "Princess Princess, do you want to go to Dancheng?"

Yao Xiang moved her gaze from Lu Jiu's face to Qin Xiang's body, and said with a smile: "I don't mean to marry a chicken, follow a chicken, marry a dog, follow a dog. I married to Dancheng, so naturally I live in Dancheng."

Not to mention Qin Xiang was surprised, even Lu Jiu was so surprised that his eyes widened and his mouth opened wide. After a long time, he suddenly stood up and asked: "You, the princess, don't want me to marry you?"

Qin Xi also asked: "Princess Princess really wants to become the wife of the Lu family? Are you willing to give up what you have now?"

Yao Xiang spread her hands and asked Qin Xiang: "What do I own? This palace? Hahaha, I didn't expect that you are as stupid as me."

This palace belongs to the Ninth Prince and belongs to the royal family. When will it really belong to her daughter's family?

During this time, Yao Xiang also opened her eyes a lot. She wanted to get rid of the current life of exhaustion, and she wanted her children to have a normal home.

She also wanted to live an ordinary life, with her parents-in-law, husband, and children at home, busy with trivial matters such as daily necessities of food, rice, oil, and salt.

What's more, she likes this man, she really likes him, and she feels happy just by looking at him.

Probably, half of it was because she liked Lu Jiu, and half of it was because she wanted to get rid of her current life and change her way of life.

Maybe, it's because of the children.

Lu Jiu felt a little guilty. He wanted to persuade Yao Xiang, but there was no way to have both ends.

To be honest, there was no way he would come to the palace to get married, but Yao Xiang felt a little wronged when she went to Dancheng.
