Chapter 206: Sister Persuading to Break Off the Marriage

"Let's leave him alone for now. I'm going to attend the morning court. Please take care of this dog later."

"knew,"

Shangguan Lan patted his friend on the shoulder and walked towards another street, where the carriage for the morning court was waiting for him.

When Mu Xingci heard that Tian Jinfeng had a car accident on the way here, he couldn't help but look suspicious, because this kind of car accident is rare.

As dawn breaks, more and more people appear on the streets, and it will be another busy and prosperous day.

At this time, an official sedan stopped in front of the Duke's Mansion. When the gate guards saw a middle-aged woman coming out from inside, one of them hurried to knock on the door for her.

Tian Shiniang entered the mansion with an anxious look on her face and went straight to the main courtyard. As soon as she entered the house and saw her brother with a bandage on his head, she could no longer hold back her complaints.

"Jinfeng, what did I say? This marriage can't happen, but you insisted. Now you see it, right? You're in trouble right after the engagement. If you really let her into the house, wouldn't you be in danger?"

"Sister, this is just a coincidence. How can you blame it on this marriage?" Tian Jinfeng knew that she would bring up this matter as soon as she came, and he didn't know who tipped her off.

"This is too much of a coincidence, isn't it? In your entire life, you've only been injured on the battlefield, but never at home. No, you must cancel this marriage. I'll find you a better woman another day."

"Big sister, don't worry about this matter. I really like Madam Yun, and I don't want to miss this fate with her because of something that doesn't exist."

"No matter how much I like you, your own life is more important. If something happens to you, this huge family fortune will be lost to outsiders. Listen to my sister, send someone to her house to cancel this marriage. We can't accept a woman who will bring bad luck to her husband."

Tian Shiniang persuaded with great regret that if she had known that the woman was a jinx, she would never propose this marriage to her brother even if she was beaten to death.

"Sister, please wait a little longer! There is still more than a month before the wedding! I want to watch it again."

After all these years, he finally met a woman he liked, and he didn't want to give up just like that.

In fact, he was also conflicted about this, but he always felt that he was a military general, as strong as an ox, so how could he be a short-lived ghost.

So, he went to the official residence to propose marriage with a self-important attitude, but he still felt a little taboo in his heart, as people said that men and women could not meet on the wedding day.

If there was no such thing as a bad husband, he would not believe in these superstitions. However, since there were bad omens, he could no longer ignore them.

In order for this marriage to go smoothly, he should try not to violate wedding customs and etiquette.

But he didn't expect that even though he followed the custom, he still couldn't escape the disaster this morning. When he returned home, the first thing he thought of was whether this was a foreshadowing of something?

Seeing that he still refused to give up, Tian Shiniang said angrily, "Look at how little you can do. Fine! If anything unexpected happens again, you must completely break up with her."

"I understand, sister." Tian Jinfeng responded casually.

He just couldn't believe it. He was a valiant and high-spirited military general who had experienced the slaughter on the battlefield, so how could the evil spirit surrounding him not be able to subdue a woman who brought bad luck to her husband?

Tian Shiniang left in anger, and just as he was lying on the bed frowning and dozing off, he suddenly heard the voice of the housekeeper.

"My Lord, Madam Yun is here. Do you want to see her?"

Upon hearing this, Tian Jinfeng immediately opened his eyes and sat up: "Why is she here?"

"She heard that you were injured early this morning, so she was worried and wanted to come and see you."

Upon hearing this, Tian Jinfeng curled up the corners of his lips slightly. It seemed that the woman cared about him quite a lot!

"Let her in."

When Yun Wansheng followed Butler Wang into the room, she saw Tian Jinfeng leaning on a low couch, but the bandage on his head made him look a little funny.

"Greetings, Duke!"

"Wansheng, we are almost a family now, there is no need for you to be so polite. Please sit down!" Tian Jinfeng said with a gentle smile.

"I heard from my eldest brother that you were injured. I was very worried about your injury, so I came to see you specially. These are the fruits and snacks I bought for you." As she said that, Yun Wansheng signaled her maid to put the things on the table.

"You are thoughtful, but my injury is not serious. It's just a little scrape. It will be fine in two days." Tian Jinfeng was very happy when he saw the things she brought.

"Duke, I'm sorry, your injury may be caused by me?" Yun Wansheng said with embarrassment.

"What do you mean?" Tian Jinfeng looked at her in surprise.

"I...I've hidden something from you."

"What's up?"

"My Lord, after we exchanged our birthdates, I went to a fortune teller to compare our horoscopes. He said... he said I was a person with a miserable fate, and that my relatives would all leave me first in this life. This is what people often call a husband-killing fate.

When I thought that after you compared my horoscopes, you would know my fate and choose to cancel the engagement, but you sent a betrothal gift. This made me think that you might not know my fate yet, so you didn't cancel the engagement.

Seeing your sincerity, I didn't want to miss this opportunity, so I didn't tell you about my situation. I thought our lives might be different.

But today you were suddenly injured, which made me feel so guilty. It must be my fate that hindered you, so I rushed here to tell you the truth, because I don’t want to hurt you, and I don’t want to lose another husband. It’s really not a good feeling to lose a loved one.

"My Lord, you are a noble man with a lot of good times to enjoy. You must not let an unlucky woman like me ruin them. Therefore, it is better to call off our marriage."

After listening to her sincere words, Tian Jinfeng looked serious. He had forgotten to ask her about this matter. Now that she said it, he remembered that he had not asked her about the horoscopes she had matched.

Now there is no need to ask, I didn't expect that this woman's horoscope is the same as mine. Is her fate of being a husband-killer destined by God?

But he couldn't bear to break off the engagement with her just like that: "Wan Sheng, don't think too much. The divination is not true. How could anything happen to me, a healthy man?"

"Duke, I hope you're alright too. It seems you don't know how my husband died. He was out collecting a debt and was met by robbers.

When he returned home, he was covered in blood, and within a day he was gone. So, I don't know what your future will be like. That's what worries me most."

Yun Wansheng said sadly with red eyes that she would try her best to persuade the man to cancel the engagement, but if she couldn't convince him, she would have to use another trick.

Tian Jinfeng's eyes froze when he heard this. Why was he only thinking about being sick? Accidents are also very dangerous. Hadn't he experienced that today? If it weren't for his martial arts skills and quick reaction, who knows how badly he would have been injured?
