The almighty crazy concubine is tough on the audience, and the prince passes the knife behind him

Thinking of the way the Chu family mother and son were hesitant to speak yesterday, and then interrupted when Fan Yun came back, they left without saying anything else. They must have wanted to avoid their sister.

"Who is here from the Chu family? What's the matter?" He asked again.

The boy replied: "It's a matchmaker. She said she came to ask for a hand in marriage."

"Ask for marriage?" Fan Qinghuai stood up and ordered: "Please invite me to the living room first!"

"Yes! Master."

The boy responded and went down first.

Fan Qinghuai walked slowly to the front hall and saw a beautifully dressed woman sitting there with some gifts beside her.

As soon as he stepped across the threshold, he smelled a very strong smell of powder, and his brows furrowed.

Seeing him coming, the matchmaker waved the handkerchief in her hand to welcome him, "Hey! This must be Mr. Fan, right? Congratulations, Mr. Fan! Good things are about to happen."

Fan Qinghuai endured the unpleasant smell of rouge and gouache, staggered away from the matchmaker and sat on the main seat, and asked calmly: "I just came to Linping City the day before yesterday. I wonder where the happy event came from?"

"Hey! Mr. Fan!" The matchmaker turned around and chased after him, boasting:

"He is the eldest son of Chu of the Zhenguo Palace and is now the Minister of Dali Temple. He is very talented, handsome and handsome. He is also young and promising. He is highly valued by His Majesty and His Royal Highness. He has a bright future.

Now I am entrusted by Mrs. Chu to come here as a matchmaker and want to marry my younger sisters, Miss Fan and Lord Fan Shaoqing. Isn’t it gratifying and congratulatory to have such a perfect match made in heaven? "

"Mr. Chu, the son of the Chu family, is indeed a good person." Fan Qinghuai looked calm.

Let's just say that the Chu family's mother and son paid a surprise visit yesterday, with a humble and sincere attitude. It turned out that it was Chu Xuanzhao who wanted to marry Yun'er.

As far as he knew, Chu Xiu was originally the city lord of Feilong City with a prominent family and a wealthy local family. Later, because Chu Xuanzhao met the prince Li Beimo, the Chu family followed the prince and his wife to conquer the Jin Dynasty. Li Beimo was He was personally named Duke of Zhenguo, and his son Chu Xuanzhao was also appointed Minister of Dali Temple.

Both father and son were officials in the court at the same time, and they both held real power. This was rare and not allowed in the temples in the past.

Of course there are exceptions, such as him and his father, which were all granted by Emperor Jiahe.

Because it was called the "official avoidance system" in Fengjin.

This system aims to reduce possible corruption due to family relationships and ensure the impartiality of officials and the integrity of the government.

"Of course!" Seeing him praising Chu Xuanzhao, the matchmaker thought that the marriage was certain.

Too! The Chu family is so prominent, and Chu Xuanzhao is so outstanding. Both father and son are important officials in the court. The number of people who come to propose marriage every day is almost broken. Now that the Chu family is taking the initiative to come to propose marriage, it is really a tribute to eight lifetimes.

"Mr. Fan, Mr. Chu is like a dragon or a phoenix among men. Although he is already twenty-five years old, his backyard is very clean. There is not even a girl who has a common room with him. His parents are also enlightened. If Miss Fan marries her, I don't know how many people she will charm. !”

Fan Qinghuai glanced at her coldly, "My Fan family does not sell daughters for glory. We don't need my sister to bring much glory to the family. I only hope that the husband she marries can take good care of her."

"Of course! Haha..." The matchmaker laughed a few times: "Mr. Chu is a humble gentleman. Who in the entire Linping City doesn't know that Mr. Chu keeps himself clean? Now he has a soft spot for Miss Fan. After marriage, he will definitely be with Miss Fan and his wife. , love till the end of time."

"Okay! Since Mr. Chu is asking to marry my sister, the important matter of marriage cannot be taken lightly. Let's wait until my sister comes back to see what she wants!" Fan Qinghuai said.

He really didn't want to smell the matchmaker's scent, so he euphemistically ordered her to be kicked out.

"In this case, I will take my leave first and come back tomorrow to wait for the good news of the young master." The matchmaker smiled flatteringly and stepped back knowingly.

This is true for the first marriage proposal. As long as the gifts are not returned, it means that the marriage is already half done.

Even for a prominent family like the Chu family, no matter how much the woman likes it, there is still a certain process to go through.

Fan Qinghuai looked at the gifts brought by the Chu family. They were all expensive gifts, showing that the Chu family attached great importance to this marriage.

He remembered what the matchmaker had just said. Chu Xuanzhao was twenty-five years old, but he was still unmarried, and there was not even a single roommate in the backyard. Is there really such a clean and self-sufficient man?

A big family like the Chu family values ​​heirs the most, and Chu Xuanzhao is the legitimate son. How could his parents let him not marry until now?

What’s more, for a family as big as the Chu family, isn’t the most important thing in marrying a wife who is well-matched?

Although the Fan family is considered a wealthy family there, they have no foundation here at all. Why does the Chu family value Yun'er?

Although Yun'er looks pretty good, she's not so beautiful that people would fall in love with her at first sight!

Thinking of this, he took out the greeting card from his arms. Just as he was about to call people in, he saw a boy coming to report in a hurry: "Young Master! Someone has come from the palace. It is said that His Highness the Crown Prince invites you to come to the palace to talk." The carriage is waiting outside the mansion."

Fan Qinghuai looked at the greeting note in his hand and realized there was no need to send it away now.

"I know!" He stood up, "You go out and tell me first, I will be here soon."

"Yes! Master."

After the servant left, Fan Qinghuai went back to his room, changed into a robe, and got on the carriage that took him into the palace.

When he entered the palace, the person who met him was Cheng Qingqing.

She held her son in her arms and smiled as she watched him walk in, "Master Fan is here!"

"Wei minister pays homage to the Crown Princess!" Fan Qinghuai bowed his hands in salute.

"Master Fan, there is no need to be polite!" Cheng Qingqing raised her hand to him, "Li Beimo went out temporarily for something. He should be back soon. Sir, just wait for him here for a while! I just have something to say to you, sir. One lecture.”

As she spoke, she picked up a teacup, lifted the teapot and poured him a cup of tea, "Master Fan, please!"

"Thank you, Crown Princess." Fan Qinghuai sat down opposite her.

Yishan knew they had something to say, so he came up and took Li Yiming away.

"I heard that the Chu family asked a matchmaker to come to ask for Fan Yun's hand in marriage?" Cheng Qingqing suddenly asked.

Fan Qinghuai was stunned after hearing this, "The Crown Princess's news is quite good."

Not long after the matchmaker left, she already got the news in the palace.

Cheng Qingqing smiled and said, "Fan Yun is my best friend, so naturally I will be more concerned about her marriage."

"Let the Crown Princess worry about it." Fan Qinghuai thought about Chu Xuanzhao's affairs and asked: "My Lady, I have something unclear. The Chu family is a great family, and Chu Xuanzhao is the eldest son. How could such a proud man be so proud? Who wants to marry Yun'er?"

"I knew you would have doubts in your heart. I let you enter the palace today just to clarify this matter with you."

Next, Cheng Qingqing told him that Chu Xuanzhao was already married and was cursed by his ex-wife.
