The Legend of the Loved One

Chapter 71

"I heard that my lord is not engaged yet, I don't know my lord, what do you think of my little girl?"

Hearing this at first, Qin Yuan was stunned.

Meeting in private and revealing your feelings in front of a strange man like him is really not what a lady should do.But the girl in front of him had a pink face at the moment, but she made him feel something called courage amidst her shyness.

As a man, the girl in front of him has already spoken, so he shouldn't hold back.After he was stunned, he asked slowly: "I don't know why Miss made such a statement. It's the second time you and I have met. When Miss asks such a question, I feel terrified."

Luo Shu was stunned for a moment, lowered her head and said softly: "Perhaps in the hearts of adults, you and I have met for the second time, but as far as I am concerned, I have met you many times. Every year on the birthday of the old lady of the Shen family, or Shen I will go to other happy events at home, and I will meet adults, but adults just didn't notice me."

Today's matter has come to an end, and it is not easy to sneak out, Luo Shu mustered up her courage and decided to tell the whole story.She paused, then continued: "Your Excellency may think that I am frivolous about what happened today, but to be honest, I have actually admired you for a long time. I know, a boudoir girl should not have said such things, but I am already Nothing to do."

"Miss is serious, how can He De dare to win the heart of a mediocre person in the lower district..."

Seeing that the girl had already taken the initiative to this point, Qin Yuan had no choice but to respond, but before he finished speaking, he paused for a while, and then the girl took the initiative to continue.

Luo Shu frowned slightly, with a little helplessness on her beautiful face, she said: "Your Excellency may not know that in a few days, there will be many ladies in the capital who have not left the court and have not engaged in marriage. They are called viewing flowers, but they are actually drafting... I Although I am a woman, I still have a bit of ambition. The place in the deep palace is not what I want, and I don't want to be a concubine. Therefore, I have the courage to invite adults to gather today. I still have a bit of luck in my heart. I think if the adults can see me, maybe, maybe they are willing to help me."

As soon as the girl said this, Qin Yuan finally fully understood the purpose of today's invitation. Although he still had a slight impression of the girl's mind in front of him that his mother mentioned two years ago, her initiative today really surprised him at first. , and now that the girl said so much, he finally understood why the girl took the initiative.

There is an inexplicable emotion in my heart.

When he mentioned the draft and the deep palace, he naturally thought of that girl, Wenwen.

Although Wenwen is still in his heart, he is clear-headed and understands that it is impossible for them.For more than a year, although he still thought of her often, it was full of worry and distress. This kind of concern was a kind of force that he couldn't use, which made him have no place to blame himself, and he was helpless.

He always got news about her inevitably, for example, she gave birth to a daughter, was made a noble concubine, and was favored by the emperor. Just to take away the favor from her and her natal family...

When he knew that it was impossible, he still cared about it, more because of his heartache. He felt sorry for her being involved in the undercurrent of the storm in the deep palace, but he couldn't help her at all.

Maybe he can help, he is now Chu Lin's adoptive son, her righteous brother in name, maybe one day in the future, she will need her own help.

Putting aside the chaotic thoughts, the immediate matter still needs his response.

The girl's frankness just now made him somewhat familiar. This was the second time in his life that a girl confessed to him face to face. Although the first time was just the little girl's words of loyalty, he believed that the current girl must is well thought out.

It was another girl who might be buried in the deep palace. He knew where it was, so he couldn't bear it.

He wants to help each other, but this is not a simple help, this matter is related to the lives of the two of them.

After a while of silence, he finally opened his mouth. He frowned and said seriously: "It's really a blessing in my next life to get Miss's favor, but this matter concerns your life and my life, Miss must not be arrogant."

"I don't use my will. I have been thinking about adults for several years. I used to think that this kind of thinking might fade away as I grow older, but I didn't expect it to become stronger every day."

Luo Shu spoke calmly.She has said everything she wants to say, and she is not afraid anymore.

Facing such a sincere girl, Qin Yuan couldn't say anything anymore, he was silent for a while, and said softly: "Today's incident is a bit sudden, if Miss doesn't mind, please let me take it easy."

In fact, seeing Qin Yuan's previous reaction, Luo Shu had already expected that he did not like her, but she had taken this step bravely, and she did not regret the result.

Unlike the little girl two years ago, although she is still shy, she is already brave enough.She told her thoughts, she believed that he was a gentleman, even if he would not choose her, he would not spread the matter.

She has already fought for it, even if there is no result, if the fate is arranged for her by someone else, she will not regret it.

Luo Shu nodded in response to Qin Yuan.

The matter has come to this point, lonely men and widows cannot stay for a long time, Qin Yuan got up and said "Farewell", and went out of the private room first.

After seeing his figure going away from the window, Luo Shu slowly went downstairs and got into her carriage.

What will happen in the future, let fate arrange it.

Unlike their daughter's straightforwardness, the Luos and his wife are in a dilemma at the moment.

Of course they were reluctant to send their daughter into the palace, but even though her daughter was honest with them, they still hesitated a little.Qin Yuan is a talented person, and the Qin family has a good family style. As a parent, he is determined to help his daughter.Although there are precedents for women to propose marriage in this dynasty, it is actually very inappropriate to find a matchmaker at this time.

Most of the officials and officials in Beijing already knew the news that the Empress Dowager wanted to choose a concubine for the emperor. If it was reported that their matchmaker from the Luo Mansion proposed marriage to the Qin family, it would be an obvious avoidance of choosing a concubine. To put it seriously, it would be disrespectful.

Therefore, if you want to fulfill your daughter, you probably need Master Luo to come forward in person.

Master Luo didn't care about face, but about his daughter.

If he took the initiative to come forward and this marriage can be accomplished, what's the point of fighting for his daughter once?It's just that the woman took the initiative and always seemed less reserved.

Why doesn't Mrs. Luo think so?She was also worried that her daughter would be looked down upon by her husband's family if she married into the Qin family in the future. Her daughter was spoiled and educated, so she shouldn't be underestimated and wronged.

The husband and wife discussed for two days, and in the end, it was still love for their daughter that overcame those unknown worries. Master Luo decided to find an opportunity to get together with General Qin Mu in private and take this step for his daughter.

Ever since meeting Luo Shu, Qin Yuan has never been able to calm down in his heart.

He didn't know whether he should help the girl or not.

Asking himself, he is very clear that he still has Wenwen in his heart, and he still can't let her go, but he is actually very clear that there is no possibility for him and Wenwen.Even if it is impossible, he thinks he will continue to keep her in his heart, but if he always remembers her, does it mean that he will always be alone in this life and never have a family again?

He is the only son in the family, if he doesn't marry, will he not continue the incense of the Qin family?
As far as filial piety is concerned, he also knows that it is impossible for him to do so.But he doesn't know if he will fall in love with others again. If he marries a woman and asks her to carry on the family line and honor his parents, and he treats her as a guest, but fails to give love, will it be cruel?

The girl who voluntarily confessed her feelings to him was honest and beautiful, and he couldn't bear to delay her.

But if I don't agree and break her heart, she might enter the deep palace and bury her beautiful youth. She obviously doesn't want to!
For a moment, I suddenly thought of Wenwen again. I wonder if she was also in pain when she was favored by the emperor and was about to marry into the palace?

There was a stabbing pain in his heart, and it seemed that a light came suddenly, and he seemed to have figured out something.

He figured it out, since he had already missed Wenwen and couldn't save her from the deep palace, causing a lifelong regret, then now, don't let another girl ruin his youth.

The left and right mothers are also very satisfied with this girl named Luo Shu. Since they always want to get married and start a family, why not choose this one.

Qin Yuan felt relieved, pushed open the door and went in front of his parents.

Qin Mu was still perplexed by the sudden private invitation from the Secretary of the Household Department, Luo Shizhen. He had very little contact with this civil servant, and the usual meeting at court was only a polite greeting among colleagues, but this lord suddenly invited him to meet privately , which made him a little confused.

Just as he was holding the invitation card from Luo Mansion and thinking to himself, he saw Qin Yuan knocking on his door.

Seeing his son's serious face, he thought it was a problem encountered in business, so he temporarily put down the invitation card in his hand and said, "Is it business? Go to the study to talk."

Just as he was about to lift his foot, he was stopped by Qin Yuan. Qin Yuan bowed his head slightly and said, "Father, let's talk here. It's good if mother is here."

When Mrs. Qin heard her son mentioning herself, she got up from the couch, came closer, and asked, "You are so serious, but what happened?"

Qin Yuan coughed lightly, and said: "Father, mother, my son was unfilial in the past and missed a life-long event, which made your two elders worry... Now, my son wants to start a family."

Hearing this at first, Qin Mu and his wife were all stunned. After realizing it, Mrs. Qin immediately beamed with joy, approached her son and asked, "Good boy, you finally figured it out! Tell mother quickly, but which girl do you like?" ?”

Qin Yuan didn't twitch, but said softly: "My son thinks that the lady from Mrs. Luo's family is very nice as my mother mentioned last time. I don't know what my parents think?"

Mrs. Qin's eyes lit up. She had already liked that girl. Otherwise, she would not have brought the two of them together to meet two years ago. Although it has been so long, she would still inquire from time to time if she is engaged.It's all right now, the girl has not yet engaged, and her son has also moved her mind, and the mother's worries are mostly healed immediately.

Mrs. Qin said: "Nianxiu has a good vision, and my mother also thinks that young lady is pretty good!"

Seeing his mother happy, Qin Yuan finally felt a little more at ease. Although he was not the person he dreamed of, it was a good thing to make his parents happy.He said: "Then let the mother and father be the master, and propose marriage to the Luo family on behalf of the son. I heard that the queen mother is going to accept a concubine for the emperor, and Miss Luo is probably among the candidates. My son hopes that I will not miss this good relationship again."

Qin Mu was still wondering about the intention of Luo Shizhen's private invitation, now when he heard Concubine Xuan said, he suddenly had a guess in his mind, could it be that the Luo family didn't want their daughter to enter the palace, and wanted to discuss marriage with him?After all, he had also heard from his wife that Miss Luo Shu seemed interested in her son.

But no matter what, since the son spoke first, it was a good thing.The person my son thought of before is no longer possible. Now choose another well-educated girl and live a good life.

So the private gathering of the two adults Luo and Qin on the second day should have been Luo Shizhen who spoke first, but after the meeting, it turned out that Qin Mu offered to propose marriage. Luo Shizhen was surprised and secretly delighted. , and did not lose the reservedness of the woman's family, it is really a good thing.

Since they were both satisfied with each other's children and family background, the two parents did not talk too much nonsense, and quickly negotiated the marriage verbally. After the Qin family discussed, they decided to invite Qin Yuan's aunt to be a matchmaker, and go through the scene of exchanging Geng Tie.

As a common relative of the two families, Mrs. Shen was very happy to see this, so ten days after receiving the invitation to appreciate flowers in the palace, the two important officials in the court, Qin Mu and Luo Shizhen, married in a low-key way.
