The concubine's favorite? Break off the engagement and marry another prince, please respect you

Chapter 21

Xie Wan Ning said "oh" and then asked, "What if I marry him and live a bad life, and become depressed and angry with him and his concubines until I vomit blood and die early?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Yanyu suddenly stopped walking. He pulled his sister's shoulder, lowered his eyes and looked at her, and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"Didn't you have dreams a lot these days?" Xie Wan Ning sighed and said nonchalantly, "That dream was quite scary. It scared me so much that I never dared to pursue Lu Ziyan again."

Of course Xie Yanyu knew that his sister had been suffering from nightmares some time ago.

Hearing this, he was only slightly startled, then he comforted her: "Dreams are fake, don't indulge in them too much and confuse them with reality."

Xie Wan Ning smiled and agreed: "Okay."

As long as she stayed away from Lu Ziyan, she would certainly not suffer from nightmares anymore, nor would she be able to distinguish between dreams and reality.

…………

After telling Lu Ziyan everything that needed to be said, Xie Wanning slept soundly that night.

I thought their engagement should be called off this time, right?

After all, Lu Ziyan is a proud man, and after being rejected by her, he will not be stubborn and refuse to return the marriage certificate no matter what.

But the next morning, just as Xie Wan Ning had finished dressing and was about to pay her respects to Zheng of Jinxiu Hall as usual, there was a knock on the door of Jianxia Courtyard.

Xie Wan Ning asked in surprise: "Why is mom here?"

Mother Zhang was Zheng's dowry mother. She watched the Xie brothers and sisters grow up. She was quite respectable in the Xie family. It was enough to ask Mother Zhang to come here in person...

"The eldest lady of the Lu family came uninvited and was welcomed into the Jinxiu Hall," said Madam Zhang after the greetings. "She was worried that you would run into her, so she asked me to come and tell you."

Lu Ziyan has not yet come of age and has not been granted the title of marquis. Although he is the only male in the Lu family, he is still only the crown prince. The eldest lady of the Lu family is the current wife of Marquis Wuyuan.

After all, she was from a loyal and heroic family that even the emperor treated with courtesy, and she was a first-rank lady with a noble title, so Zheng didn't dare to turn her away like she did to Lu Ziyan, and finally opened the door to welcome her in.

It was time for her daughter to come and pay her respects, so she quickly sent her trusted mother to inform her.

Her daughter was very sensitive about her reputation, and she was afraid that her daughter would find it difficult to say no when she met the elders who had always been kind to her, so she was coaxed into going with just a few words.

Xie Wan Ning understood her mother's intentions immediately. She frowned tightly, not understanding why the Lu family would come today even though she had just made her mind clear yesterday.

Moreover, the person who came was the eldest lady of the Lu family.

She immediately took off her hairpin, removed the lipstick from her lips, changed into plain nightgown, and lay back on the bed before saying, "Go tell my mother that I caught a cold yesterday. I won't pay my respects to her today, as I don't want to pass on my illness to her."

Mother Zhang bowed and agreed.

Xie Wan Ning added, "I am not in good spirits. Jianxiayuan is closed to visitors today. Please don't worry, mother. You don't need to come to visit me."

The servants in the room all knew who was coming to visit.

Mother Zhang smiled slightly and said, "I understand. Don't worry, young lady. No one will come to disturb your rest today."

Xie Wan Ning forced herself to smile back, but when no one was in the room, she could no longer maintain her gloomy expression.

He looked around but couldn't find anything useful, so he could only grab a soft pillow and smash it hard, shaking with anger.

What on earth does Lu Ziyan want to do!
Why won't you let her go?
Isn’t that clear enough?

He didn't like her, and what he wanted was a wife who could accept him taking concubines, so why did he insist on pestering her?
Could it be that her rejection yesterday was too straightforward, which damaged his proud character, so he was unwilling to accept it?
Otherwise, Xie Wan Ning really couldn't figure out why he was so obsessed with her.

It could only be his ridiculous self-esteem that would not allow her to leave him first. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed Xie Wan Ning became, and he was so angry that he felt like his head was about to split.

I was pretending to be sick, but he actually made me sick because of him.

Why should he be the only one allowed to betray her!

Why!
When Er Qing brought in breakfast, she saw that her master looked sick, and she secretly complained that the girl was pretending to be sick and it looked really good.

Until I walked closer and saw that the girl on the couch was staring with eyes dyed red by anger, as if tears were about to come out.

As a confidant, she guessed that her master was angry that the Lu family was unwilling to break off the engagement in a dignified manner, and quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, young lady, Madam understands your feelings. Even if Madam Lu came to apologize in person, Madam would definitely not give in."

"Of course I believe that my mother will send him away," Xie Wan Ning held Er Qing's hand, gritting her teeth and crying, "I just hate Lu Ziyan for pestering me like this!"

Er Qing was startled and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears: "Don't worry, the Marquis and the Madam love you so much, as long as you don't want to get married, this marriage will definitely not be successful."

Xie Wan Ning also knew this, but she was just angry and anxious.

She was annoyed at Lu Ziyan's unreasonableness.

Why is it that he is the only one who can treat her perfunctorily, let her down, treat her with a distant attitude, treat her with hot and cold, treat her like a doll, and always feed her a candy from time to time in the midst of extreme coldness.

She was coaxed into becoming addicted to it, getting deeper and deeper into it.

And once she came to her senses and tried to get away and save her life, he refused to let go.

Before, Xie Wan Ning thought that the marriage between the two would not be difficult to cancel, and she did not think that Lu Ziyan was too obsessed with this marriage. However, after Madam Lu came to visit in person, she had to change her mind.

Even Lu Ziyan's biological mother has come, so it goes without saying how much importance the Lu family attaches to this marriage.

If Lu Ziyan insisted on not canceling the engagement, then Xie Wan Ning would have to admit that it might not be that easy for her to cancel the engagement as soon as possible and regain her freedom.

Lu Ziyan is deeply trusted by the current emperor, and his treatment is no worse than that of several princes.

At such a young age, he already holds the power of the city guards and is a third-rank official.

Although the emperor has such high hopes for him, the princes are not jealous at all. Instead, they all want to make friends with him.

After all, Marquis Lu guarded the northern border all his life, and although he is dead, his influence still exists. Considering the lives of nine people in the Lu family, no matter how much favor Lu Ziyan receives, people can only praise the emperor's grace.

As long as Lu Ziyan does not rebel, he will still enjoy endless honors and favors even if someone else is replaced in the Golden Palace.

Therefore, if he insisted on not giving up the marriage between the two families and took the matter to the Golden Palace and let the emperor make the decision, it was hard to say what the result would be.

Although the Xie family is also a hereditary marquisate, it is still weaker than the Lu family, who sacrificed nine lives of three generations to defend their country.

By then, the imperial decree will be difficult to disobey, and even if the Xie family is unwilling to marry their daughter, she will probably have to marry him off.

This is what Xie Wan Ning was worried about.

She took a deep breath and felt a little bitter in her heart.

How ridiculous! She, who had been looking forward to marrying into the Lu family every day, would one day worry about Lu Ziyan's entanglement to this extent.
