Princess Pingrou couldn't help but feel a pang of discontent. "Marriage is decided by the parents, how can it be decided by the grandmother? And isn't the Guan family too small? It seems that he is just a sixth-rank official, or was he promoted to the position of local magistrate a few years ago?"
The reason why the Guan family is famous is that all five of their daughters married into noble families, otherwise Princess Pingrou would not even know about the Guan family.
Princess Pingrou didn't care which family her daughter-in-law came from, because no family could be higher than hers.
But since her son is so outstanding, the wife he marries cannot be too bad. Why did the mother-in-law choose such a bride from a small family?
Princess Pingrou sighed and said, "Your grandmother is not as good as your sister at matchmaking. Look, she chose Princess Qi for your brother. Your brother is really too reckless!"
Lu Ze said, "Grandmother had a sudden asthma attack in Xianglin Temple two months ago. Miss Guan Liu saved her, and that's when she verbally agreed to the marriage. My parents were busy with my brother's marriage, so we haven't discussed it with you yet. I had planned to talk to you two about it once my brother entered the family, and then go and propose."
Lu Ze had never met Miss Guan Liu, and he couldn't say whether he was satisfied with his fiancée or not, but he felt that he should repay his grandmother for saving his life.
Princess Pingrou said helplessly, "You're still proposing marriage? If I offend Qi Yuning, I'm afraid your grandfather will demote me to a commoner."
Duke Lu said from the side, "That's not the case. After all, Your Highness is the most beloved daughter of His Majesty and His Majesty. How could His Majesty and His Majesty bear to see Your Highness demoted to a commoner?"
Princess Pingrou held her eldest son's hand and said with a worried look on her face, "My eighth brother was exiled to Cangzhou because he offended Qi Yuning. Father always said that without the Qi family, there would be no Zhao family. Now that the Qi family is left with only these two siblings, and Lu Yun is still bullying Prince Qi, father will definitely not forgive me.
"Zer, I don't want to be banished to the bitter cold of Cangzhou. Just marry Qi Yuning. As for the young lady from the Guan family, I will definitely find her a good family to marry into!"
Lu Ze said, "Mother, I don't think Princess Qi wants to marry me either."
