Chapter 446 Refusal



After careful preparation, he was even willing to sell out everything, just to put He Yanxiu to death in the end, and to see his unwilling look before he died, so that he could feel happy.

But after working for so long, all these ambushes and schemes were easily cracked by He Yanxiu, and to him, it seemed as easy as child's play.

Especially seeing the half-smile on He Yanxiu's face, with a lot of mockery...

This is even more painful than killing him! He Yande gnashed his teeth, his face almost twisted.

Why he can never be better than He Yanxiu.

Why! After roaring, He Yande slumped in his wheelchair, staring blankly at He Yanxiu.

He really can't compare to He Yanxiu in every aspect...

His father, because of his mediocre qualifications and lack of talent, was not as respected as He Yanxiu's father, either in the court or at home.

His mother's family background was not as good as He Yanxiu's mother, Lu, and her dowry was also dull and unimpressive. She was not as good at networking as Lu when she went out. The housekeeping power in the family was handed over to Lu by her grandmother, bypassing her mother.

Since childhood, people have praised He Yanxiu for his intelligence and cleverness. He has a photographic memory and can read ten lines at a glance when reading. He can master martial arts at a glance and is quite talented.

He was so angry that even though he had a weak constitution when he was a child and even though his parents did not approve, in order to compete with He Yanxiu, he begged his parents and even grandparents to invite a martial arts master for him. He practiced day and night, and when he had achieved some success, he happily went to He Yanxiu to compete, but he still lost.

After they grew up and their family began to seek official positions for them, he could only enter the Ministry of Works, while He Yanxiu was able to enter the Ministry of Revenue, and was promoted much faster than him.

Even when it came to choosing sides, he thought about joining the eldest prince, hoping that when the eldest prince ascended the throne, he would be his right-hand man, in charge of the He family, and make the entire He family look at him with new eyes.

But although the eldest prince took him under his command, he could clearly feel that the eldest prince was very sorry that he was not He Yanxiu.

He just couldn't understand why He Yanxiu had chosen the Third Prince, who was the mortal enemy of the First Prince, and why the First Prince still couldn't forget him? What on earth was he inferior to He Yanxiu!

Which point!

He Yande stared at He Yanxiu, his eyes seemed to be filled with poison, as if he wanted to tear him into pieces.

"I know you hate me." He Yanxiu met He Yande's gaze and said in a gentle tone, "But since your last name is He, you are carrying the He family's mission. You should consider the entire He family, not just yourself."

"Your actions today may seem like a way to vent your anger, but what have you gained? You have simply become someone else's chess piece, and the person holding the chess piece does not take you seriously and discards you after using you."

"What you hate most in your life is that I am inferior to you and make fun of you. But you defeated me and thought you were happy, but in fact you became a joke in the eyes of others. So are you going to make other people your next target?"

"You keep busy all day, but what have you gained? You just live in the shadow of others and add to your troubles."

"Do you think I will listen to what you say?" He Yande sneered at He Yanxiu's remarks, "These long speeches are just to make me be an obedient dog!"

"You told me to consider my responsibilities to the He family, but how has the He family treated me well? Where did they place me? I am the eldest grandson of the eldest son's family, so why do I always rank behind you?"

"If you say how I treat the He family now, it's nothing more than returning everything the He family has done to me! What? Just let the He family treat me differently, and I return the favor, and the He family can't stand it? The He family is really narrow-minded!"

He Yanxiu saw that He Yande was as angry as a wild beast, and knew that no matter how much he tried to persuade He Yande, he would not listen, so he just kept silent.

Seeing He Yanxiu lowering his head in deep thought, He Yande couldn't help but feel proud, "Do you think I hit the nail on the head, so you're keeping silent?"

"It doesn't matter if I say it right or not."

He Yanxiu still didn't say much, he just pushed the wine glass full of wine in front of him on the table to He Yande, "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit, now I am the boss here."

Is this an attempt to take his life?

He Yande sneered, "I haven't seen you for more than a year, and you have become more cruel. But don't forget, if I die, the He family will mourn, and the marriage you have been thinking about will be postponed for a year because of my death. Things are unpredictable in this year, and there are countless accidents. Aren't you afraid of some unexpected changes?"

"It seems that big brother doesn't understand why I asked the emperor to grant me a marriage." He Yanxiu looked at him with sharp eyes.

In ordinary marriage arrangements, the host would follow the imperial decree and ignore the six rituals. Moreover, because the imperial decree had already been issued, the marriage would be pushed forward as much as possible.

But He Yanxiu did not intend to do so.

The six rituals of a formal marriage are the rules and also a respect for women. He doesn't want to let Su Yujin down, so he doesn't want to skip any of the steps.

As for the arranged marriage, he was not in a hurry to get married, but just wanted to announce his marriage to Su Yujin to the world, to make this marriage more decent and honorable, and to prevent anyone from discussing Su Yujin's background.

Therefore, he was not afraid of He Yande's threats.

He Yande was stunned when he saw He Yanxiu looking calm and composed at this moment.

After thinking for a long time, I finally understood He Yanxiu's fearlessness.

"I see." He Yande nodded.

Then he slapped his thighs which were totally out of control and laughed.

The laughter was loud, but also full of sadness. Even after laughing till tears came out, He Yande glared at He Yanxiu fiercely, "Since you don't care, why did you still come all the way here just to see me make a fool of myself?"

"I just want you to leave with more peace of mind." He Yanxiu didn't care.

At the same time, I just want to see you off for the last time.

After all, his uncle and aunt loved him very much. His patience over the years could be considered as a repayment of their childhood friendship, which made him feel at peace.

"But what if I don't agree?" He Yande laughed wildly, "Do you want to do it yourself?"

He Yanxiu didn't say anything, but took out an envelope from his arms, put it on the stone table, pressed it with his fingers, and pushed the envelope in front of He Yande.

Then, he stood up and walked straight to the outer courtyard.

He Yande looked at the letter in front of him. After hesitating for a long time, he reached out and picked it up, opened the envelope, and read the contents on the two thin pages in the light of the candle.

There were not many words on the paper, and the words were big enough that He Yande could see them clearly even though the candlelight was not bright.
