Chapter 162 Officially Cancelling the Marriage Between Prince Qin and Jiang Yingxue

According to General Xu's suggestion, Marquis Yong'an personally counted the betrothal gifts and other items prepared by the Duke Ping's Mansion when the engagement was first made, as well as the marriage certificate.

Some items that could not be collected due to their age were also compensated with silver and a new corresponding list was drawn up.

Then let Jiang Yanting take people to the Duke Ping’s Mansion to formally cancel the engagement.

Marquis Yong'an did not want to make things too awkward with the Duke Ping's Mansion, nor did he make too much of a high profile. He just rushed there to complete the task of breaking off the engagement.

They have learned from Crown Prince Xiao Che that Yuntang will not return to the capital until the ritual is completely concluded and his retreat is over.

They have learned from the Xu family that the Xu family has gone to Tianji Pavilion to pay the money today.

Even if the wife of Duke Pingguo continues to make trouble, the Xu family is already paying the money on behalf of Duke Pingguo's Mansion.

Therefore, the three hundred thousand taels of silver must be paid off within these two days, before Yuntang returns to the capital.

In order to avoid further disputes over the marriage exchange, they also had to officially cancel the marriage between Prince Qin and Jiang Yingxue before Yuntang returned to the capital.

General Xu will also be waiting at the Duke Ping's Mansion to deal with this matter.

When going down the mountain, Marquis Yong'an also explained the difficulties to General Xu, which was a very humble attitude.

At least the Xu family will not have a grudge with the Yong'an Marquis Mansion because they know clearly that the Pingguo Mansion cannot marry a fake daughter and they cannot afford a real daughter.

After Duke Pingguo returns to the capital, he will understand the problem clearly. Marquis Yong'an disdains the shrewd calculations of Duke Pingguo's wife, but he still values ​​Duke Pingguo's friendship.

He didn't want to fail to become in-laws and then have resentment towards his children.

The wife of Duke Pingguo originally stubbornly believed that it was all the fault of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion and that it was the Yong'an Marquis who interfered and caused the failure of the marriage exchange.

The more resentful he felt, the less he wanted to pay the three hundred thousand taels of silver.

However, early in the morning, she was scolded by the maid sent by her mother.

Upon learning that her father was furious, she asked the Xu family to deliver the 300,000 taels of silver to Tianji Pavilion on behalf of the Qin family today, and asked her to collect the silver as soon as possible to make up the difference.

No matter whether it is replenished to Tianji Pavilion or returned to the Xu family, they are not allowed to play tricks on Qin Mingyu's future, otherwise don't blame the Xu family for taking action to teach their daughter a lesson.

Unexpectedly, this would cause great wrath from her parents-in-law, so Lady Pingguo shut up and went to count the silver obediently.

By the afternoon, the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion came to cancel the engagement. General Xu and Madam Xu had already arrived at the Pingguo Mansion, and they were scolding their daughter while waiting for someone to come and cancel the engagement.

The cancellation of the engagement was completed smoothly.

Only then did Qin Mingyu know what happened next.

When he was still reluctant to exchange his marriage but his mother kept nagging him about the benefits of exchanging marriages, when he knew that his mother was determined to exchange his marriage for the sake of the three hundred thousand taels and forced the girl from the Marquis's Mansion to come and treat his injuries...

He just felt that life was meaningless and worse than death.

He had already become a disabled person and fell from the peak of glory to the valley of despair. Within half a year, he experienced the warmth and coldness of human nature and saw the complexity of people's hearts.

Unexpectedly, even his biological mother would drag him into public view over his marriage, making him a laughing stock in the capital.

He even refused to leave the yard and was unwilling to visit his grandparents, let alone witness the cancellation of his marriage with his own eyes.

He leaned against the window and stared at the sky outside, letting the cold wind blow in through the window without noticing anything.

All he had left in his heart was a sad thought: did that cute and lively little girl know that they had broken off the engagement?

So what if she is a fake daughter? Didn’t she grow up in the marquis’ mansion?

As long as the Marquis' Mansion gave her an identity, she would still be the Marquis's daughter, but why must this identity be exposed?

The real daughter has returned, so she has returned. It is the Marquis' Mansion that owes her, not the Duke of Ping's Mansion!

Why did the fake daughter’s identity be exposed to the public and her marriage be taken away when the real daughter returned?

A little Taoist priest, but he is very scheming!

When Qin Mingyang returned home, the cancellation of the engagement had already become a foregone conclusion.

The people from the Marquis' Mansion had left, and his grandparents had also gone home. After he entered the house and learned about the situation, he felt relieved and happily ran to tell his eldest brother the good news.

But he was stopped halfway and asked to go to the main courtyard to see his mother first.

Qin Mingyang thought about what his mother had done and still felt dissatisfied and didn't want to go.

But the person who came to stop him was the woman in charge of his mother's side, so he had to change direction and go to pay his mother a visit first.

Lady Pingguo had already learned that her youngest son had returned and had prepared a feather duster for him.

When he saw Qin Mingyang, he immediately picked up a feather duster and rushed over to hit him, cursing him angrily.

"You little bastard, you've grown wings, haven't you? You know how to sue me, haven't you? You dare to take the initiative to cancel your eldest brother's marriage on my behalf, haven't you?"

"I'm going to beat you to death, you bastard!" Lady Pingguo chased her son and beat him, causing chaos in the whole yard.

Lady Pingguo was in a rage, and the servants did not dare to step forward to stop her. They just worried silently that the young master would suffer.

Seeing the young master running outside while shouting that he wanted to go to the Western Territory to complain to his father, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Mingyang originally wanted to go to his eldest brother to tell him about the grand ceremony at Yunshang Temple, but he was called over by his mother and beaten. Naturally, he could not really go to the Western Territory.

He will go to Yunshangguan again tomorrow.

So Qin Mingyang ran all the way out of the house and went straight to his maternal grandparents' house.

Isn't it his fault for filing a complaint? This complaint is definitely going to happen!

Finally, Old Madam Xu sent the maid to go to the Duke Ping's Mansion again and ask the Duke Ping's wife to count the gold and silver as quickly as possible and make sure to replenish the 300,000 taels before dark.

In the morning, the Xu family sent 100,000 taels of silver to the Tianji Pavilion, plus a thousand gold taels that could be equivalent to 10,000 taels of silver. As for the rest, they had to force the wife of the Duke of Pingguo to pay quickly.

By the way, he notified the Qin family's relatives and asked them to raise money.

Naturally, these Qin family relatives would think, Duke Pingguo has made great military achievements and received many rewards from the emperor, and the Xu family has paid a deposit of 110,000 taels first, so why can't they pay the rest?

So each family sent people to keep an eye on the wife of Duke Pingguo, which made her feel very upset.

But now that the marriage has been called off and the plan for a replacement marriage has not been realized, the money must be given.

Otherwise, he was deliberately preventing someone from treating Qin Mingyu's injuries. This matter was not just a problem between mother and son, but a matter concerning the entire Qin family.

Before dark, Tianji Pavilion had counted the 300,000 taels of silver and confirmed that they were correct. They politely responded to the Xu and Qin family members who had come to supervise.

"I will have a ritual at Yunshang Temple tomorrow, and I will return to the capital in three days. I will come to treat Prince Qin then, so don't worry."

At Yunshang Temple, neither the Yong'an Marquisate nor Qin Mingyang had heard any definite news about Yuntang's return to the capital.

But at this moment, Tianji Pavilion gave a definite answer, and they will return to the capital in three days!

But after these three days...it doesn't seem to be accurate?

Everyone felt uneasy and refused to leave, insisting on getting some assurance. Finally, Yun Xuanying stepped forward to give the answer:

"Since my junior brother has promised to walk to the palace banquet before the New Year, he will not miss this matter no matter when he returns to the capital."

Everyone thought the same and gave up.
