Chapter 733 The marriage is settled!
Chapter 733 The marriage is settled!
Chu Junting nodded, "Prince Yang is not a person of bad character. He is a man of his word, and he can distinguish right from wrong. He doesn't like to make promises he can't keep. Such a person is actually worth relying on."
As long as Miss Meng can accept his personality, they would be a good match.
In his previous life, the seventh brother was ridiculed for marrying Wu Yue'er, and ultimately met a tragic end.
In this lifetime, he can finally have a good outcome.
Chu Yungui and Gu Huan'er exchanged a glance. They had thought that none of the four of them could hear, but it turned out that only the two of them couldn't hear.
"Brother, can you hear us? Tell us quickly, are these two officially a couple?"
Gu Huan'er was also full of curiosity. She knew that the King of Chu was highly skilled in martial arts, so it was not surprising that he could hear it. However, she did not expect that her cousin could also hear it, which was truly surprising.
"Let's go back first."
Song Ruozhen lowered her voice and waved her hand, "They should be back soon. They'll definitely feel embarrassed if they see us."
The four of them quietly went back, and Yun Wang and Gu Huan'er, who knew that the two had become a couple, couldn't help but be happy.
I used to think being single was great, but now seeing them all in pairs makes me incredibly happy. From now on, when we get together, there will be another couple.
Song Ruozhen couldn't help but think, "If Prince Yang and Meng Qin are getting engaged so soon, shouldn't my fourth brother and Mu Yao be about to be engaged as well?"
Chu Junting understood. To be honest, their relationship was indeed progressing slower than the others.
Chu Yungui's eyes widened suddenly. "Mu Yao and Song Jingshen?"
"Why are you reacting so strongly? Aren't their differences obvious?"
Chu Yungui was completely bewildered. "Is it really that obvious?"
"Hasn't Princess Muyao been going to the teahouse to see her cousin quite often lately? If she weren't interested, a princess like her wouldn't be going there so frequently, would she?"
Gu Huan'er had felt that Chu Muyao's attitude towards her cousin was unusual from the beginning, but her cousin didn't seem to notice at the time. However, the feeling gradually became more and more obvious.
Chu Yungui couldn't help but look at Chu Junting, only to find that he also seemed to know all along, and couldn't help but say:
"So after all this fuss, I'm the only one who doesn't know?"
The three nodded. "Yes, only you."
Chu Yungui: "..."
When Prince Yang and Meng Qin returned with smiles on their faces, they saw Chu Yungui's incredulous expression.
"Fifth Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Chu Yungui shook his head. "It's nothing, I just feel like my eyesight hasn't been very good lately."
Prince Yang: "???"
……
That night.
After sending Meng Qin back to her residence, Prince Yang immediately sent someone to the palace to report the news.
Consort Shu was about to retire for the night when she suddenly heard the news, and her eyes lit up.
"I didn't expect this kid to be so fast. I was thinking things might not go so smoothly and I would have to think of more ways."
Who would have thought he'd acted like a completely different person this time? It seems he truly does have feelings for Meng Qin.
Seeing this, the old nanny couldn't help but say, "Madam, do you remember how excited the Prince was when he visited the Meng residence as a child and talked about Miss Meng?"
"Of course I remember. He was unhappy in the palace and was being bullied by the Second Prince, so I sent him to the Meng residence to play."
Who would have thought that he would be happy after he went there, and end up taking that little girl Meng Qin to climb trees and crawl through dog holes.
At that time, Madam Meng mentioned that Meng Qin's newly made clothes were not only torn again, but her knee was also scraped. And yet, the girl was so stubborn, she refused to implicate Prince Yang.
"When I first heard that, I thought this little girl was really interesting, and I liked her very much."
During that time, Prince Yang was much happier, and as soon as he returned, he kept talking about Meng Qin.
That's when I first had the idea of arranging an engagement between the two children. Wouldn't it be wonderful if they could be together?
Consort Shu recalled the past and couldn't help but sigh, "I never thought that after the two children grew up, they would be different from before and gradually become estranged."
I was initially disappointed, but now we've come full circle. It's really interesting.
"Your Highness Prince Yang has never had a girl you like all these years, and you were worried. But you don't need to worry now. I'm afraid that there is someone you've always been attracted to."
Princess Qi Yue's outburst actually made His Highness see his own heart more clearly.
Consort Shu chuckled, "You really know how to talk!"
"This young man rushed to send the news to the palace, simply because he wanted to finalize the marriage as soon as possible."
"I will go to pay my respects to Her Majesty the Empress tomorrow and finalize this marriage as soon as possible to avoid any further complications."
She could see her son's anxiety and understood his seriousness. This was a marriage that they both liked, and they only had to wait until the date was set tomorrow to complete the task!
Fortunately, she had always behaved herself in the palace and had not offended the Empress, so things should be able to be done smoothly.
The next morning.
When the Empress learned that Consort Shu had come to her for the purpose of arranging a marriage between Prince Yang and the Meng family's daughter, she was quite surprised.
"Consort Shu, I heard that Prince Yang has been getting quite close to Princess Qi Yue recently, and I thought they would get married. I never expected that he would be engaged to the Meng family?"
"Your Majesty, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, but Prince Yang has been oblivious all these years, and his marriage has been delayed again and again."
I originally thought he might be with Princess Qi Yue, but I never expected him to tell me that he was interested in the Meng family girl.
I'm very happy that they've known each other since childhood and are now together.
Consort Shu smiled and looked at the Empress, "Please grant my request, Your Majesty."
The Empress had heard about what happened in the teahouse before, which surprised her. She didn't expect that Prince Yang would have a falling out with the Princess because of Prince Chu and Ruozhen.
After this incident, Prince Yang truly stopped contacting Wu Yue'er.
She felt a sense of relief upon hearing the news.
"Since this is a happy occasion where both parties are in love, I will naturally agree. The Meng family is a good family, and I have heard that Miss Meng is straightforward and a good girl."
"Thank you, Queen."
Consort Shu bowed respectfully, her heart filled with joy.
Now her son doesn't have to worry anymore!
……
After learning that Song Ruozhen was the miracle doctor, Wu Yue'er thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out what to do.
What does Ao Jie's disability have to do with her?
It was his own fault for being incompetent. He had promised to avenge himself, but instead of avenging himself, he caused them to lose face.
Now that she's crippled, it has nothing to do with her. She's just a general, isn't she?
If this one fails, there's always the next one!
Instead of worrying about these things, she should focus her attention on Prince Yang.
She felt that her brother was right; the Prince of Chu seemed too unapproachable, and Song Ruozhen was not someone to be trifled with.
She was originally confident that as long as she could become the Princess Consort of Chu, she could completely suppress Song Ruozhen, but the things that have happened now have made her feel uncertain.
This woman is skilled in metaphysics and medicine, and seems to have an exceptionally high reputation in the Chu You Dynasty.
Even if she were to enter the Prince Che's mansion, she wouldn't have the confidence to suppress him. It would be better for her to marry Prince Yang first, otherwise she would only anger him.
