Chapter 29 Do You Really Want to Cancel This Marriage?

Overnight, everyone in the city knew that she had disguised herself as a man and visited a brothel and got drugged.

"Alas, General Su is a man of high moral character and self-denial, but how could he have given birth to such a daughter? It is such a misfortune for our family!"

"That's right. If you ask me, the Ningguo Mansion is unlucky to have arranged such a marriage for the prince so early. Not only did the Su family's daughter go around saying bad things about the Ningguo Duke's eldest daughter, she also shamelessly seduced the King of Qi. Now she has even gone to such a place of pleasure. Marrying such a woman home is really unlucky for eight lifetimes."

"I heard that the girl from the Su family was poisoned yesterday and was sent to the clinic by a man. I don't know if anyone took advantage of her before she was sent to the clinic, hehehe~"

"How many good men can remain calm in the face of temptation? The Su family girl is not ugly, on the contrary, she is quite pretty. Under the influence of the drug, if she takes the initiative to seduce, I don't believe any man can resist. Can you resist?"

"I definitely can't, hahahaha..."

“…”

After that, there was a burst of obscene words that were unbearable to hear.

In the teahouses in the market, there are many people who like to gossip and laugh at jokes.

In a corner of the second floor, a man in a white robe with an elegant face withdrew his gaze from downstairs and looked at the handsome man opposite with a smile.

"My son, so, did you do anything?"

Among them, this guy has the most outstanding face and is the best at coaxing women. I really don’t understand why the lord would send him to do that?

Aren’t you afraid that this guy will do something bad and seduce the girl?

Lu Wu had long been accustomed to his good brothers taking advantage of him verbally.

He picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, then said slowly, "Am I that kind of person? You should ask if she did anything to me."

On the way to the clinic, the young lady from the Su family made some advances towards him. Not only did she kiss his face and neck, she also put her hands into his clothes and touched him randomly. He couldn't stand it anymore and knocked her out.

She is the prince's fiancée. Even if the mistress wants to cancel the engagement, he won't do anything about it.

She is just a woman, not worth the risk of angering the prince.

"Oh, if I didn't know who kept Miss Cui Ning from Yicui Tower, I would really believe what you said."

Ming Zhan shook his head and lowered his head to blow away the hot steam from the teacup.

Hearing this name, Lu Wu's lips curled up and his heart felt warm.

He reached out and gently rubbed his lips, with a look of nostalgia on his face.

"Speaking of which, I've been too busy recently and haven't visited Miss Cui Ning for a long time. No, I have to go find her tonight. What if she misses me so much after not seeing me for so long? I'll be heartbroken."

Ming Zhan: “…”

*Taiwei Mansion.

Yun Zheng came uninvited.

Looking at the man who looked intimidating without even getting angry, Madam Su and Su Jian subconsciously recalled what happened last night. They both felt guilty and a sense of uneasiness flashed through their hearts.

"The Duke suddenly came to visit. Is there something important?"

Because he felt guilty, Su Jian rarely showed Yun Zheng a displeased look. Of course, his expression wasn't very good either.

As an upright person in the court, he always looked down upon Yun Zheng, a treacherous villain who wielded power, flattered the late emperor, and used any means to achieve his goals.

"Nothing much, I just wanted to ask the Grand Commandant, have you heard the gossip in the capital?"

Yun Zheng narrowed his eyes, his strong and handsome face looked gloomy, and it was obvious that he was in a very bad mood.

The faces of the Su couple changed instantly. As expected, this man came here for this matter.

Su Jian was so ashamed that he pursed his lips and remained silent, but Madam Su was angry.

She stared at Yun Zheng and said, "What do you mean by gossip? You said it was gossip. Are you, a great Duke, going to come to our Su family and show us your displeasure just because of a few pieces of gossip?"

"Just a few words of idle chat?"

Yun Zheng sneered and said, "The outside world is saying that your daughter has lost her virginity. Not only has Lord Su's reputation been ruined, but even my Yun family has been pointed at by others. In Madam Su's eyes, this is just a few idle words?"

"So what do you want?"

Mrs. Su raised her chin and looked at him angrily.

"Those lowlifes spread rumors when they have enough to eat. Xue'er's reputation has been tarnished. As Xue'er's future father-in-law, you heard those vicious and hateful rumors, but you didn't stand up and teach those lowlifes a lesson and seek justice for her. Instead, you came to my Su family's door and gave me a cold shoulder. May I ask what's the reason for this?"

Thinking of the rumors outside, Mrs. Su was almost angry to death.

Her daughter Xue'er is clearly flawless, but rumors are spreading that she has lost her virginity. All kinds of dirty water are being thrown at her, making it impossible for Xue'er to wash herself clean even if she jumps into the Yellow River. It's simply hateful.

I don’t know which evil person spread the news about last night. If she knew about it, she would definitely not let it go easily.

“It’s totally unreasonable!”

Yun Zheng was really enlightened. Looking at the woman's unreasonable skills, he was really impressed.

"Is this the kind of place that the Duke asked Miss Su to go to? Why did he ask the Duke to seek justice for her?"

"As a lady from a famous family and the eldest daughter of the Grand Marshal's Mansion, she goes in and out of such places. The Su family is really well-educated."

"People who don't know the truth might think that Miss Su longs for the situation of the women in the building."

How ridiculous! He had deliberately spread the rumor in order to ruin Su Qianxue and the Su family's reputation and vent his anger for Chen Er in the 'plot'. Would he still come out to refute the rumor? "You, you you you..."

Madam Su stared at him with eyes wide open in shock and anger, her face flushed red, and she was so angry that she couldn't help but want to scratch his hateful face.

What does it mean to "long for the situation of the women in the building"? This bastard was actually mocking Xue'er for going to that kind of place and wanting to be a prostitute. How dare he do that?

"Xue'er is young and naive, so it's inevitable that she makes mistakes, but as an elder, you can just ignore her? How can you say such a thing?"

"Please be careful with your words, Your Excellency!"

Su Jian was furious, he clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were cold and icy.

"Oh!"

Yun Zheng was not afraid at all. He sneered and slammed a vermilion note and a sachet on the sandalwood table. His voice was cold and gloomy.

"My Lord has no time to bother with you. Here are your daughter's engagement letter and token. Please fetch Chen'er's engagement letter and token. Let's call this marriage over now."

"From now on, no matter what gossip people say about your Su family, it has nothing to do with my Yun family, and my Duke will not come to your house to show his displeasure just because of a few words of gossip."

Boom!!! It was like a bolt from the blue. The Su family and his wife stared at him in disbelief.

Mrs. Su slammed the table, stood up and glared at him.

"Yun Zheng, do you want to cancel the engagement?"

Although she had long been dissatisfied with Yun Wanchen's disability and this marriage, and had been thinking about how to cancel the engagement all day long, she never expected that the Duke's Mansion would be the first to propose canceling the engagement.

Xue'er is surrounded by rumors now. If the Duke's Mansion can prove Xue'er's innocence to the outside world, then this matter will be forgotten after a while.

But the Duke's Mansion chose to cancel the engagement at this critical juncture. Wouldn't this move help to confirm those rumors?

By then, Xue'er would really have no way to defend herself. Even if she produced evidence of her innocence, she would not be able to stop the gossips.

She lost her virginity before marriage. Which family in the Great Wu Kingdom would dare to marry a woman with such a bad reputation and notoriety, and become a joke laughed at by the world? No, this marriage cannot be cancelled, at least not before Xue'er's innocence is proven.

"How can you cancel the engagement at this juncture? Can you wait for a while until the storm has passed?"

As she had to ask for help, Mrs. Su's attitude and tone softened.

It's a great thing that he took the initiative to cancel the engagement, it's just that the timing is not right. I need to keep him calm first.

"That's right, this marriage cannot be cancelled now!"

Su Jian looked very unhappy, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Yun Zheng, even though you and I have always been at odds, you don't have to take advantage of me like this, right?"

"Oh!"

Yun Zheng sneered sarcastically and said mercilessly, "You can say that this duke is taking advantage of someone's misfortune or something else, but this marriage must be cancelled today. No matter what you say, it's useless."

"If you firmly disagree, then I don't mind. When we return to the mansion later, I will have the servants spread the word that this engagement has been unilaterally cancelled."

"If you guys are going to be shameless to the end, then I will accompany you. I want to see who will be more embarrassed in the end."

After saying this, Yun Zheng felt like he had gotten rid of a lot of anger, so he stood up and prepared to leave.

This evil woman of the Su family, does she really think that he doesn't know how she dislikes Chen'er on a daily basis?

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

If her daughter hadn't gotten into such trouble yesterday, she would have been so happy that she would have died on the spot if he had come to cancel the engagement today.

She could despise Chen'er, so why couldn't his Duke's Mansion despise a woman who behaved in an absurd way and had a ruined reputation?

"Uncle Yun~"

Suddenly, a crisp voice came from the door. Yun Zheng turned his head and saw a slender and beautiful girl slowly walking towards him.

The girl was wearing a light green dress, her face was pale and fragile, yet she also had a hint of toughness and stubbornness.

"Why? You want to say something?"

Yun Zheng looked at the girl in front of him with sharp eyes and a stern look.

She was just an ordinary weak woman. If Xiao Si had not verified everything in his mind, he would never have believed that such a woman had the ability to destroy his Yun family.

"Why are you here instead of taking a rest?"

Madam Su hurriedly went towards the girl and looked at her with a distressed look on her face.

Su Qianxue ignored her and stared blankly at the tall and majestic man in front of her.

Is this the heroine’s biological father, Duke Ningguo?

So handsome!

Although the article mentioned that all the Yun family members were good-looking, she never expected that Yun Zheng would be so handsome.

Before this, she always thought that this character was a middle-aged man. Unexpectedly, the contrast between reality and imagination was so different that it was beyond her expectations.

The man in front of me was tall and strong, with an angular, strong and handsome face. Although he was thirty-six or thirty-seven years old, he looked young and handsome, like a mature older brother.

This appearance and aura are simply beyond words.

"If you have nothing to say, get out of the way and don't block the way of this country's prince."

Yun Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, his whole body was filled with coldness and oppression.

He thought that this woman would say something that would humiliate him and make him regret breaking off the engagement. It seemed that he overestimated her.

"Why are you so fierce? You scared my Xue'er."

Madam Su protected Su Qianxue behind her and glared at Yun Zheng. However, Su Qianxue came out from behind her without any gratitude.

"Mom, don't interrupt me. I have something to say to Uncle Yun."

Mrs. Su was very disappointed with her husband, but she still kept her mouth shut.

"Uncle Yun, are you really going to cancel this marriage? Have you really thought it through?"

Yun Zheng's eyes were cold and he said without hesitation, "Yes, the Duke of this country wants to cancel this marriage."

“…”

Su Qianxue quietly clenched her fists in her sleeves, and a trace of unwillingness and shame flashed through her heart.

She had never thought that the Yun family would take the initiative to come to cancel the engagement. After all, putting aside Yun Wanchen's situation, this had never happened in the plot.

The original owner kept courting death and seducing King Qi. Even though she was disgraced, the Yun family still didn't give up the idea of ​​marrying her.

The original owner was unwilling to marry Yun Wanchen, so on the eve of the wedding, she instigated her mother to marry her half-sister instead.

Therefore, when the maid told her this, she didn't believe it. But now the facts were in front of her. The Yun family really took the initiative to come to cancel the engagement.

Was it because her behavior yesterday triggered the butterfly effect, causing the plot to collapse?

"Okay, then cancel the engagement. I am willing to become a national duke."

As soon as Su Qianxue said this, the Su couple instantly became anxious.

"Xue'er, what are you talking about?"

How can I cancel the engagement at this juncture?

How will the Su family face people in the future?

Su Qianxue smiled palely, "Mom, they've come to cancel the engagement, do you still want to keep refusing? A forced melon is not sweet, and Prince Yun and I are not destined to be together."

"Besides, I don't really care. It's just a marriage, isn't it? I, Su Qianxue, don't have to marry into the Yun family. Even if I don't marry, what does it matter?"

"I also hope that Uncle Yun will not regret it in the future!"

"Chunlan, go to my room and get Prince Yun's engagement letter and token, and return them to the Duke."

These words were sonorous and powerful, and the Su couple felt helpless and distressed, but also proud, and they both acquiesced to her choice.

"Well, I, Su Jian, am not so poor as to be unable to raise a daughter."

Even Yun Zheng was shocked.

This woman is truly a soul from the outside world. Her words and deeds are indeed very different from those of the women of the Great Wu Kingdom. Perhaps it is precisely because of her unique thinking that she was able to destroy the entire Yun family with her frail body.

Fortunately, Xiao Si came. Yun Zheng suddenly felt that God must have seen that his Yun family was too wronged, so he sent Xiao Si, the savior, to save them.

Yun Wanchen's engagement letter and token were quickly brought over. After Yun Zheng received the token, he strode away.

The Su couple had some resentment towards him, so no one went to see him off, and they were too lazy to even pretend to do so.

Su Qianxue picked up the vermilion gold-stamped sticker on the table, narrowed her eyes and sneered.

She is from the 21st century. How could she be like the ancient people who would feel ashamed to face others and cry and try to commit suicide after being rejected?

Not only will she not commit suicide, but she will live a good life.

The rumors from the outside world can't hurt her at all.

However, one day, she will personally take back the humiliation that the Yun family has imposed on her today.

She must make the Yun family regret their decision today!
