At the same time, in Yongning Marquis Mansion.

Yan Yu'an came back from work and was very happy to hear about his sister's story.

After his sister got married, she no longer liked to talk to her brother about anything.

In the past, he really couldn't help much.

It's different now.

Working for the emperor, everyone looks up to you.

When things are going smoothly for people, they are indeed more energetic.

Prince Yan is completely different from before.

Yan Yu'an changed into a set of blue casual clothes, which made him look even more handsome.

Mrs. Yan looked at her son with a smile on her face.

Her son is good-looking in every way.

But now I’m already twenty years old and still haven’t gotten engaged.

Mrs. Yan was very anxious inside, but she didn't dare to show it.

I don’t know if my son has a lover. When I talk to him about marriage, he is always absent-minded.

If you don’t say it today, you’ll have to wait until the next day off.

If you keep waiting, the daughter of the Minister of War will be snatched away by someone.

As soon as Yan and An entered the room, Mrs. Yan took out the portrait.

Yan Yuan knew what his mother was going to do next?

These days, whenever he has a day off, his mother would nag him about whether he wants to see so-and-so's daughter.

Yan Yuan was helpless, "Mother, it's not too late for my son to start a family after he has established his career."

"Why don't you understand, kid?" Madam Yan said lightly, "The sooner you get married, the sooner your mother can have a grandchild. I think the daughter of the Minister of War is very good. She is very talented and a perfect match for you."

Yan Yu'an took the portrait reluctantly and looked at it perfunctorily for a few times, but another beautiful face came to his mind.

He couldn't help but feel annoyed. Why couldn't he let it go?

She married again.

"Mom, let me think about this matter again." Yan Yu'an placed the portrait on the table and turned to leave.

Mrs. Yan saw this and quickly pulled him back. "What is there to consider? I will ask a matchmaker to go to the Minister of War's house to propose marriage in a few days."

Yan Yuan stopped him, "Mother, how about I meet her once and then make a decision?"

The legitimate daughter of the Minister of War could have entered the palace and become the emperor's concubine. How could she fall in love with a mere fifth-rank guard like him?

The mother was desperate and tried every possible means.

Let’s calm mother down first.

"Okay." Seeing her son's attitude soften, Mrs. Yan stopped forcing him, "Then I'll arrange a meeting for you guys."

A few days later, Yan Yuan met Song Zhi at the agreed place.

Song Zhi was wearing a green skirt and had a beautiful face and elegant temperament. Her slender waist made people feel pity for her for some reason.

Yan Yu'an took a look, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

But he quickly looked away.

Not far away, maids and servants followed the two of them closely, while my mother and Madam Song were leisurely drinking tea in the pavilion.

In fact, the moment they saw her just now, Yan Yuan's heart skipped a beat.

Her eyes are so much like a person.

However, Yan Yu'an shook his head, trying to shake off the beautiful figure in his mind.

However, Song Zhi was very satisfied with Yan Yuan.

When she first came, she was very reluctant.

She couldn't understand why her mother insisted on letting her meet Yan Yu'an, the only daughter of the Minister of War.

As far as she knew, the Yongning Marquisate had only the title but no real power.

Although he has an uncle who is a prince, the Prince of Xiang is a lazy prince who never takes care of things.

Such a family situation would not be acceptable to my father.

When she saw him today, she found that Prince Yan was a handsome man and he caught her eye.

Yan Yu'an nodded slightly as a greeting.

Song Zhi was so absorbed in watching that when she came to her senses, a blush appeared on her face and she said softly, "Master Yan is well!"

This time, she secretly thanked her luck that she came to see him and did not break the appointment out of spite.

Looking at the woman in front of them, Yan Yu'an's heart was also in turmoil.

Reason told her that this person was not Jiang Chuwei.

But those clear eyes were exactly the same as Jiang Chuwei's.

If Jiang Chuwei hadn't come before her, Song Zhi would have really caught his eye.

Song Zhi looked at Yan Yuan shyly.

Yan Yu'an didn't hate her, and could even be considered somewhat amazed by her. Song Zhi had the confidence to do so.

But he didn't fancy her.

Song Zhi soon felt a little lost.

Her feeling was not wrong, and she was not being too suspicious.

For the first time, Song Zhi tried her best to attract someone's attention.

However, Yan Yu'an was always absent-minded, and his eyes drifted away from time to time. After a long time, Yan Yu'an couldn't help but said, "Miss Song, after seeing you today, I can see that you are indeed talented.

But I know I am not worthy of you, young lady, please find another good husband."

A straight punch came over, and Song Zhi was stunned for a moment.

He rejected her outright.

However, Song Zhi quickly concealed her thoughts and smiled slightly: "Young Master is very elegant, I hope you get what you want."

Yan Yu'an was stunned. This was a smart woman.

I could tell at a glance that he had someone in his heart.

If you marry her, she should be a qualified mistress.

But he didn't want to hurt her, and he couldn't accept any other woman in his heart now.

Even he himself despised his dirty thoughts. How could he harm the girl?

There was no need for the two of them to continue talking. Since they were not interested in her, they should not tarnish her reputation for nothing.

Yan Yuan turned and left.

Song Zhi just stood there blankly, looking at his receding back, feeling very lost.

Today was a rare day for her to be moved, and she never expected this would be the result.

Song Zhi saw surprise in Yan and An's eyes.

But, it was just a moment.

Afterwards, Yan Yu'an never looked at her again.

Song Zhi also has many followers.

Not only because of her status as the daughter of the Minister of War, but also because she herself has a good appearance.

But she has never met the person who makes her heart beat.

Song Zhi's heart ached for no reason.

This pain made Song Zhi panic.

He was just a man she had met once.

I got on the carriage and went back home with my mother.

Song Zhi looked depressed.

Mrs. Song knew very well that her daughter had fallen in love with someone else, and the son of the Yan family no longer liked her daughter.

Mrs. Song was a little angry. Her daughter was not good at all, but she was still being picked on by others.

After thinking about it, he started complaining to his old man.

Why did he choose this blockhead as his son-in-law?

Seeing that her mother was worried, Song Zhi told her mother what happened today.

After hearing this, Mrs. Song patted her on the back and comforted her, "There are many good men in this world. This man has no taste. We don't have to worry about not finding a better one."

Song Zhi nodded. However, she still couldn't let it go.

I wonder what kind of woman is in his mind?

As soon as Mr. Song returned home, he was blamed by Mrs. Song.

Yan Yu'an, a mere guard, actually dared to look down on her daughter.

As long as he gets hold of the Minister of War's Mansion, his future will be bright. Prince Yan must know this.

Why did he refuse this marriage?

My daughter suffered in vain.

Fortunately, today's interview was very secret, and Mrs. Song didn't worry that it would get out and ruin her daughter's reputation.

"He didn't even come over?" Lord Song laughed.

Mrs. Song said angrily, "You still have the nerve to laugh."

Lord Song: "What a pity."

"You old man, you don't care when your daughter is wronged, but you are still concerned about other people's sons. Isn't it a pity?" Mrs. Song looked at Lord Song angrily.

Mr. Song stroked his beard and said slowly, "Of course I care about our daughter. I am just celebrating for her!"

"Thankful?" Mrs. Song's eyes widened. "What nonsense are you talking about? How can anyone feel thankful after being rejected for a kiss?"

Mr. Song smiled and pulled Madam Song to sit down. "Think about it, if he really agreed to this marriage immediately, it would be a misfortune for our daughter."

Mrs. Song looked at Mr. Song in confusion, "What do you mean?"

Lord Song analyzed: "Although Yan Yu'an is the prince of the Marquisate, the Marquisate is now in decline.

He is just a small guard now, and he knows that I will help him get married to our family, and he will definitely have a great future. But he rejected this marriage without hesitation today, which shows that he is a man of integrity. How can such a person be willing to be a guard forever?

He will definitely work hard to climb up.

As long as the people around the emperor are not mediocre, they will definitely have a chance to come to the fore.

Moreover, as far as I know, the emperor thinks highly of him. The key is that he saved my life. "

"What?" Mrs. Song stood up immediately after hearing what Mr. Song said.

"He is the one who saved your life in Chenzhou?" Mrs. Song was surprised.

"Yes, I have been looking for him for many years. It was not until the emperor was assassinated that I saw him because he was always by his side," said Lord Song.

"Are you sure?" Mrs. Song no longer thought that Prince Yan was a bad person.

He is good everywhere.

It doesn't matter if you don't like her daughter, you can just be thick-skinned and claim her as your godchild.

"I can be sure it's him." Song Hao said.

"Tomorrow, I will invite Madam Yan to come out again." Madam Song smiled happily, and the gloom on her face had long gone away.

Lord Song felt much more relaxed when he saw his wife's smile.

He knew that his wife had always hoped that their daughter could find a good home.

Now it seems that Yan Yuan might really be a good choice.

Although he rejected the marriage proposal, his character and ability were recognized by Lord Song.

Lord Song decided that after his wife met Madam Yan tomorrow, they would plan carefully how to further strengthen the relationship between the two families.

He had investigated and found out that Yan and An had never been engaged, and that Yan had never dated any other girl.

Such a person is still not married at the age of 20. Apart from the fact that no one cared about him for three years while he lay in bed, it is also because he has not met the right person.

Now, his daughter, Song Hao, is naturally suitable.

Even if it is not suitable, it has to be suitable.

Unlike Mrs. Song, Lord Song is determined to make Prince Yan his son-in-law.

Neither of them was engaged, but in her eyes they were a match made in heaven.

At the instruction of Lord Song, Mrs. Song met with Mrs. Yan again the next day.

"Madam Yan, I came here today to discuss something with you." Madam Song went straight to the point.

"Mrs. Song, please feel free to speak." Mrs. Yan said.

Yesterday, her son was not in a good mood, and she had no choice. She couldn't force her son to marry Song Zhi.

This is not fair to the lady.

It seems that Minister Song has not given up yet.

Mrs. Yan is a little strange.

The daughters of the Song family never have trouble finding a husband.

Madam Yan would not be so confused as to think that the Shangshu Mansion must have her son.

"Regarding the marriage of your son and my daughter. I know it's a bit abrupt to bring up the marriage now, but if my Song family and your Yan family can become relatives, it will definitely be a good story." Mrs. Song said with a smile.

Madam Yan looked troubled. "Madam Song, this may be a little difficult. An'er..."

Madam Song said quickly, "I also know that Master Yan may have some concerns, but emotional matters can be cultivated slowly. I think your son and daughter are a perfect match, so why not let them spend more time together first."

Madam Yan hesitated for a moment, but still refused. "Madam Song, you don't know that An'er is a straightforward person. I can't do anything if he doesn't want to."

To be honest, Mrs. Yan was a hundred percent willing.

If she could pack up her son, she would have thrown him into the Minister of War's mansion.

With a relationship with the Song family, his son's future is bright.

But her son refused, what could she do?

"Oh, what should we do?" Mrs. Song sighed, a trace of worry appearing on her face.

Seeing this, Madam Yan hurriedly comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam Song. Perhaps we can think of other ways."

Mrs. Song's eyes lit up, and she asked hurriedly, "What do you think, Madam?"

Madam Yan pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that there is a poetry gathering in the city recently, and many talented men and beautiful women will go. If Miss Song and An'er can attend together, perhaps it will enhance their understanding of each other."

Mrs. Song nodded repeatedly and said, "This is a great idea! On the day of the poetry gathering, we can each bring our children with us."

Mrs. Yan was stunned. She looked so hateful to get married.

She couldn't help but ask, "Why did An'er catch the eye of Master Song?"

Mrs. Song has already revealed that Lord Song is determined to marry into the Yan family.

Madam Song smiled and said, "It's a long story. Prince Yan and my master have a destiny."

Madam Yan said, "An'er has always been kind to others. It is his blessing to be in the eyes of Lord Song."

"In the future, if our children's marriage fails, can I ask my master to recognize Prince Yan as his godson?"

Madam Yan was stunned. "This..."

"To be honest, my master's life was saved by Prince Yan." Mrs. Song explained the reason, and Mrs. Yan was surprised and said, "So there is such a relationship."

She also breathed a sigh of relief.

The Song family's pursuit of marrying off their daughter is irrational no matter how you look at it.

Although it was a poetry gathering, Mrs. Yan was not sure if she could take her son with her.

My son doesn't like to go to places that literati like to go.

Since it was a life-saving favor, it can be justified.

Madam Yan stopped playing tricks and said, "As a military commander, An'er really doesn't like to go to poetry parties. Why don't I hold a banquet and invite the brothers and sisters in the capital to come and have some fun."

"That's fine." Mrs. Song agreed happily.

Mrs. Yan was ashamed of the little plan she had just made.

She originally planned that if her son was unwilling, she would say that he had to be on duty and could not leave.

Mrs. Song will then realize that she cannot control her son, and the matter will fail.

Now that she thought about it, Lord Song would know it as soon as she told a lie.

After all, whether An'er is on duty or not, the Minister of War only needs to ask a little to know.

Now that she has this relationship, she doesn't have to be so scheming anymore.

Whether his son is willing or not, he will not offend the Shangshu Mansion.

Judging from Mrs. Song’s attitude, you can tell that the relationship between the two families will be good in the future.

The two ladies had a very pleasant conversation, and Mrs. Yan's eyes were finally filled with joy.

Her son's kindness was rewarded, and as a mother, Mrs. Yan was sincerely happy for her son.

At this time, Prince Yan, who knew nothing about it, almost lost his life.
