That's what I was waiting for.
Jiang Qingluo pretended to be overwhelmed and said in a trembling voice, "Sir, are you going to break off the engagement with me?"
"That's right."
Song Yu knew what kind of situation Chen Wangfu would face if he said this, but now that things had come to this, he had no choice but to do it.
Just as Ruan Hezhu said, with so many people watching, if he didn't break off the engagement, then Ruan Hezhu would only be his concubine.
Now he has to choose between Jiang Qingluo and Ruan Hezhu.
"Okay, as a daughter of the Jiang family, I, Jiang Qingluo, am not a shameless woman who is entangled. Since the prince and Miss Ruan are in love with each other, then I bless you and agree to cancel this marriage."
Jiang Qingluo had a determined look in his eyes. He held onto the wall and tried hard to hold back his tears. He looked tough and pitiful.
Coupled with her current elegant outfit, people can't help but feel a little distressed.
"This prince is too much. He actually humiliated his fiancée for a wild woman."
"Yeah, I really don't know what the prince's vision is. How can Miss Ruan compare to Miss Jiang?"
"That's right. A woman who shows up all day long to do business and seduces the prince, I think Miss Jiang is too kind-hearted. If it were me, I would tear her apart."
A slightly plump woman, her face full of resentment, as if Ruan Hezhu had stolen her husband.
Ruan Hezhu couldn't stand such anger, so she retorted immediately.
"I'm better than her in every way. She's just a spoiled brat who relies on her parents' power to bully the weak and fear the strong. Have you all forgotten how she treated the prince in the past? She didn't allow any other woman to have any contact with him. Which man would want to marry such a jealous woman?"
These people did think that Jiang Qingluo was not worthy of Song Yu before, but now after comparing them like this, they felt that Ruan Hezhu was even less worthy.
"Now it seems that Miss Jiang did nothing wrong. When Miss Jiang pushed you into this, you also cried out that you were wronged and that you had no intention of seducing the prince. How come you want to marry him now?"
Among those watching the excitement inside, there were many who had seen this scene before, and they looked at Ruan Hezhu with contempt.
"Miss Jiang was too naive, so she was deceived by this woman. Prince, you must open your eyes."
"What nonsense are you talking about? The prince and I are in love with each other, which is different from her unrequited love. Are you forcing the prince to marry someone he doesn't love?"
Ruan Hezhu used modern thinking to argue, but she forgot that this was in ancient times.
There was no such thing as free love in ancient times. Everything was arranged by parents and matchmakers. Her words further confirmed that she and the prince were in a secret relationship.
"Miss Ruan, if the prince doesn't want to marry me, he can just go to the Jiang Mansion to cancel the engagement. I, Jiang Qingluo, am not a shameless person, but why do you have to humiliate me like this?"
Jiang Qingluo was in tears, and there was deep sadness in her eyes as she looked at Song Yu.
She felt that her true feelings were not worth it, and felt even more pathetic for the stupid things she had done in her previous life.
She wiped away her tears vigorously.
"Please go to the Jiang Mansion to cancel the engagement as soon as possible, Prince."
After saying this, she turned and left.
Ruan Hezhu wanted to stop her, "I want her to explain herself clearly. Why is she pretending to be pitiful?"
"That's enough."
Song Yu growled softly.
"Don't make fun of yourself."
There are so many people here, and their actions are being seen by everyone. The best thing to do is to cancel the engagement without saying anything.
The more you explain, the more disadvantaged you put yourself.
"Let's go too."
His face turned pale. He didn't expect something like this to happen today.
What made him even more incomprehensible was Jiang Qingluo's behavior. She shouldn't want to cancel the engagement.
No one understood her obsession with herself better than him.
She might not be able to help but make a big scene, and then everyone would think she was being unreasonable like a shrew, and would sympathize with herself and Ruan Hezhu.
But today she was unusually calm, just questioning sadly and even saying that she was willing to cancel the engagement.
These words were said in front of everyone, and there was no room for regret. Jiang Qingluo was really willing to cancel the engagement.
He felt inexplicably panicked, as if more and more things were slipping out of his control.
"Prince...I..."
Ruan Hezhu also realized that he had just been irritated and said something he shouldn't have said.
No matter how domineering Jiang Qingluo is, she is still the daughter of the Jiang family. Jiang Weizhen defends her country and is loved by the people.
People are more tolerant of Jiang Qingluo than they are of themselves.
She is not as dazzling as she was in her previous life, nor does she have the real strength to confront Jiang Qingluo.
She thought for a moment and said, "Why don't I agree to be their adopted daughter to Princess Xuanyang? That way I can have a status that's worthy of you."
"No, if you agree at this time, all your efforts may be wasted."
It took a lot of effort to gain the trust of King Xuanyang, and there is no room for any mistakes.
"It won't be a problem. Guo Muhuai is clinging to me very closely now, looking for me every day. Moreover, he has changed a lot under my treatment. Now, no matter what decision I make, they will support me."
Meng Xiyue was very confident. She relied on this to control Prince Xuanyang and his wife in her previous life.
For the sake of her son, Princess Xuan Yang simply obeyed his every word, and Prince Xuan Yang was a man who doted on his wife, so naturally he also obeyed her.
In this life, perhaps because I understand them better, I feel less pressure when getting along with them.
It's been less than a month and they already want me to be their daughter.
Song Yu still shook his head. "It's not appropriate to expose it too early. I will take care of this matter. Just do your own thing."
"So...are you going to cancel the engagement?"
Ruan Hezhu asked tentatively.
"I've said it all today. I naturally want to cancel this marriage. You should go back home first. I will also go back and tell my father."
For this matter, Prince Chen needs to go to the palace.
Ruan Hezhu frowned, feeling a little worried. The current development of things was completely different from that of her previous life.
She knew that Jiang Qingluo did this on purpose, but she also didn't understand why she did this.
In her previous life, she would not have wanted to cancel the engagement even if she died, but this time she actually offered herself to him.
Even though it was a humiliation for her, she couldn't keep this marriage.
Could it be that she has thought it through and no longer wants to bother Song Yu? If she simply gave up, it would be fine, but I'm afraid she has other motives.
Thinking of this, she reminded, "Miss Jiang is a little strange. It seems like she knows a lot of things in advance."
"You have to be careful and don't let your guard down around her."
"What's the meaning?"
Song Yu didn't understand what she was talking about.
Meng Xiyue didn't know how to explain it, so she could only give instructions.
"In short, you should be careful with her, and it's best to change your plans."
