Chapter 197 My Third Brother is Going to Marry a Man.
Today, Qiu's youngest son personally visited Zhou's incense shop.
"You're Zhou Feng?!" Young Master Qiu said arrogantly to Zhou Feng.
Miss Han happened to be absent today, and Zhou Feng, not recognizing the newcomer, asked with a stern face, "Who are you?"
Young Master Qiu, hands on his hips, said, "I am the young master of the Qiu family. You should bow to me now!"
Zhou Feng looked up at the slick-haired man in front of him, turned around and said, "This is an incense shop. If you want to buy incense, then buy it. If you don't want to buy it, then leave quickly."
Young Master Qiu's face was full of anger as he listened. "He's just a small-time vendor, how dare he talk to me like that? I'll smash up this shop."
Zhou Feng wasn't afraid of him and said directly, "Young master, the fragrant dew and pills in our shop were all pre-ordered by the ladies in the palace. If you smash them all, you won't be able to bear the consequences if the ladies blame you."
Young Master Qiu's face darkened slightly upon hearing this, and he quickly retracted his previous words, saying, "Fine, I won't smash it then. I'll ask you, why did you seduce my betrothed!"
Zhou Feng was completely confused and asked, "What did you say, 'wife'?"
Young Master Qiu said, "Miss Han, my parents went to her house to propose marriage, but she chased them all away and came here to see you every day."
After hearing this, Zhou Feng roughly understood what he meant and said coldly, "Young Master Qiu, marriage proposals are based on mutual consent. Miss Han did not agree to your Qiu family's proposal, yet your Qiu family still came to propose marriage. This is wrong of your Qiu family. Furthermore, you and Miss Han are not engaged yet, so where did this talk of a bride-to-be come from? You are publicly defaming Miss Han's reputation!"
Young Master Qiu was stunned and speechless.
Zhou Feng continued, "General Han is quite a prominent figure in the capital. You're publicly slandering his daughter here. Aren't you afraid they'll come to your Qiu family and demand an explanation?!"
Young Master Qiu's face darkened further. He had no intention of going against General Han; he had only come to bully this small vendor, but who knew that the vendor would scold him.
"You're talking nonsense. I didn't slander Miss Han at all," he retorted through gritted teeth.
Zhou Feng said coldly, "If you have nothing else to say, then get lost!"
Young Master Qiu was very dissatisfied.
At this moment, Miss Han arrived, accompanied by the Third Prince.
The Third Prince had planned to visit Zhou Feng today, but unexpectedly witnessed this scene.
Miss Han strode over and said, "Young Master Qiu, I have made it very clear that our marriage is impossible! If you continue to bother me, I will report you to the authorities!"
Upon hearing that the matter was to be reported to the authorities, Young Master Qiu immediately became obedient.
Although he was the youngest son of the Qiu family, he was the youngest, with several older brothers.
My brothers are all serving in the imperial court. If they find out I've gotten into trouble, it will be terrible.
He quickly turned around and left.
After Young Master Qiu left, Miss Han led the Third Prince into the house.
Zhou Feng quickly poured a cup of tea for the Third Prince. "Third Uncle, why did you return to the capital?"
The Third Prince took the tea and said slowly, "I've returned because of some matters in the palace recently."
Zhou Feng said to him, "Third Uncle, have you heard anything about Third Brother lately?"
The Third Prince shook his head. "What's wrong?"
Zhou Feng said, "I have another sum of money here. My mother and sister-in-law said that the money was to be left for my third brother to recruit soldiers and buy horses, but I haven't been able to contact him lately."
The Third Prince frowned upon hearing this. "There is no war outside the pass right now, so they shouldn't have lost contact with you."
Zhou Feng said seriously, "So I was wondering if something had happened to my third brother?"
The Third Prince comforted him, saying, "Don't worry, I'll have someone go to the border to ask later. Maybe he went to the neighboring country with your uncle."
"A neighboring country?" Zhou Feng asked, puzzled.
The Third Prince nodded. "It's the Chengzhou Kingdom."
"Alright, thank you very much, Third Uncle." Zhou Feng breathed a sigh of relief, then continued to ask, "What are Third Brother and the others going to Cheng Zhou for?"
The Third Prince looked around and whispered, "I heard they want to arrange a marriage alliance."
