Chapter 298 Matchmaking for the Top Scholar



Madam Lu was taken aback: "I'm so sorry, but to be honest, Feng'er's marriage has already been arranged. If he hadn't led the troops into battle, I'm afraid the Emperor would have already bestowed the marriage upon him."

The Prime Minister's wife gave an awkward laugh: "Madam Lu, you've misunderstood me. I'm not here to arrange a marriage for your second son."

"That is...?" Madam Lu was a little confused about what she meant.

"I'm here to act as a matchmaker for our top scholar."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhaolin abruptly stopped in his tracks. He turned around in disbelief and looked at the Prime Minister's wife.

Madam Lu's expression froze instantly.

Is it that the Prime Minister's wife is not smart enough, or is it that her daughter, Meng Wanying, is unable to get married?

There's no girl who would act as a matchmaker for the two brothers.

If she remembers correctly.

The last time was during Qianqian's 100-day celebration.

The Prime Minister's wife even said in front of everyone, at Qiluan Garden, that she wanted to marry Meng Wanying to her second son, Lu Zhaofeng.

How could it have only been a blink of an eye?

She's going to marry her eldest son again.

Anyone would feel uncomfortable in this situation.

Madam Lu moved her lips, wondering how to refuse her.

Lu Zhaolin quickly walked over: "Madam Prime Minister, I'm so sorry. I haven't thought about getting married since I just took office, and I already have someone I love."

"That's really..." My wife, the Prime Minister, gave an awkward smile: "In the end, my daughter is not fortunate enough to have that blessing."

"I'm so sorry, Madam Prime Minister." Madam Lu apologized repeatedly. "This child had a sweetheart all along and kept it from his mother. I didn't know anything about it. I will definitely give him a good talking to when we get back."

“Children have their own thoughts.” The Prime Minister’s wife smiled apologetically. “In the end, I was too impulsive. This eldest son is so outstanding and not young anymore. Even if he is not married, how could he not have someone he likes? It’s all my fault.”

"Please don't say such things, Madam Prime Minister. I will definitely visit your residence in person to apologize when I have time," Madam Lu said guiltily.

"Oh dear, Madam General, please don't say such things. That's too formal. Even if the two children can't be together, it shouldn't affect the friendship between our two families that has lasted for over a decade." The Prime Minister's wife stood up. "It's getting late, so I won't bother you any longer. I'll come to visit Madam General again when I have more time."

"Then I'll see you off."

They waited until the Prime Minister's wife left.

Madam Lu sighed helplessly and turned to look in Lu Zhaolin's direction.

The sentence he just said indicates that he already has someone he likes.

Madam Lu sighed silently in her heart.

Seven days later.

Lu Zhaofeng returned to the capital in triumph.

When he stormed into the capital of the Xia Kingdom.

King Xia strangled Consort Han to death and then committed suicide by cutting his own throat.

"Your Majesty, what should be done about the people of Xia?" Lu Zhaofeng knelt on one knee and handed the jade seal of Xia to Emperor Yuanwu.

Unifying the world must be the dream of every emperor.

But ever since Emperor Yuanwu ascended the throne.

Harassment from neighboring countries and domestic unrest.

In addition, there were frequent outbreaks of epidemics.

This was the first time he had issued an order to attack a country.

Although the fact that King Xia was with Consort Han and the Crown Prince on that day was not enough to make him want to kill.

But that's what Mu Qianqian truly felt.

He wanted him to no longer allow the Xia Kingdom to exist.

Putting aside the issue of being a monarch, he was just a father.
