Chapter 1094 Father's Fault

Some insiders also knew that some time ago, they heard that the An family wanted to come to the Lin family to break off the engagement.

At that time, I thought that the An family had a new high-ranking branch, or that they also had feelings towards the Duke of An. But now I think that maybe it was because the An family knew about this.

The Lin family is truly extremely vicious.

At this time, there were not only the young men and ladies from before, but also many ladies gathered around.

These ladies hated Lin Yuanzhi even more when they saw his appearance.

If they put themselves in their shoes and thought that their daughters encountered such a thing, they would be helpless.

The An family was respectable after all. They never revealed the affair between the two, thus saving the reputation of both the Jiang and Lin families.

But there are also some bold ones who think that if they were in this situation, they would make a big deal out of it.

In short, I can't let my daughter suffer this kind of loss.

But the Lin family refused to agree to cancel the engagement no matter what.

Not wanting to fulfill his son's friendship, but wanting to ruin Miss An's life.

For a moment, everyone looked at Lu Xingwan with eyes full of admiration.

This matter actually has nothing to do with Princess Yong'an, but today the princess spoke up for the daughter of a third-rank official.

She is worthy of being the Princess Yong'an praised by the whole world.

When people looked at An Ziqiu again, there was a little more pity in their eyes.

An Ziqiu closed his eyes and ignored everyone's gazes.

She naturally didn't want anyone to pity her.

She had only one purpose, she wanted to break off the engagement, she felt disgusted.

After all, it was Pei Chuyan's people who went to invite Lord Jiang and Lord Lin, so they did not dare to slack off in the slightest. They hurriedly tidied up their clothes and rushed here without stopping.

Not to mention the princess, even for Pei Chuyan, they did not dare to slack off.

Although Pei Chuyan is still young, he is already the Duke of Anguo and a popular figure around His Majesty and the Crown Prince.

Everyone knows that if the prince ascends the throne, the Duke of Anguo will definitely be a high-ranking official.

It is precisely for this reason that many people want to cram their daughters into the Anguo Mansion.

Some are not decent and think that being a concubine would be fine.

The two of them didn't know why the princess summoned them, so they were naturally uneasy.

When they arrived outside the Xuanfu Palace, they saw the princess sitting at the top, and then they saw their own children standing there.

At this time, both of them lowered their heads and remained silent. After Lin Ji left, the heroine did not ask any more questions, so no one answered.

Lord Jiang and Lord Lin could not see their gazes clearly, but it was obvious that something was wrong with the scene in front of them.

Their hearts sank, but they did not dare to delay even a moment and hurried forward to pay their respects to Princess Yong'an.

"Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess."

The two fathers were completely unaware of Jiang Qingyin and Lin Yuanzhi's private affairs.

To them, these matters were just matters of the inner house, and most of them were taken care of by their wives.

Now that the princess has come today, they also know the position of this princess in His Majesty's heart, so they dare not neglect her in the slightest.

Lu Xingwan looked at the two of them greeting each other with an indifferent expression and an elusive calmness in his eyes.

As the saying goes, if a child is not taught, it is the father's fault.

To what extent had these two fathers failed in their duties to allow their children to become what they are today?

Judging from their expressions, they were probably completely unaware of what was going on between Lin Yuanzhi and Jiang Qingyin.

Thinking of this, Lu Xingwan turned his head slightly and looked at Pei Chuyan beside him: "Please trouble the people around Duke An to run again and invite Lord An to be a witness."

After hearing the princess' words, Lord Jiang and Lord Lin, who were bowing, looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes.

Lord An doesn't have much interaction with them on a daily basis, so why did they invite him to come and witness?

If it is a matter of the Ministry of Personnel, shouldn't the Vice Minister of Personnel come forward?

However, they were just confused and did not dare to say anything in rebuttal.

Lu Xingwan did not intend to blame them, but just raised his hand slightly towards them: "Master Jiang, Master Lin, please stand up. Please wait for a moment."

But the calmer the heroine was, the more uneasy the two men felt.

Especially now that they have seen the way people around them are looking at them, it is clear that there is some teasing in their eyes.

I don't know why, but the situation is not good.

Lord An arrived very quickly. As soon as he entered, he looked eagerly for his daughter.

Seeing An Ziqiu standing there safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The heroine naturally noticed this gaze and lowered her eyes slightly.

It seems that it is just as An Ziqiu said, her father treats her quite well.

But, the chain failed at the critical moment!

Since you have found out the Lin family's faults, just cancel the engagement!

To save the face of others, you ruined your daughter's happiness for half her life?

To be honest, when the guards around Duke An came, Lord An was naturally very worried.

I know my daughter's personality.

If you say it is simple, it is not.

But...actually, she is a little too kind.

He was afraid that his daughter would stand up for others at the palace banquet and cause some trouble.

He was not afraid that his daughter would cause trouble for him, but he was afraid that his daughter would hurt herself because of something else.

So when he saw An Ziqiu standing there safe and sound, he really breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as her daughter is safe, she will fight for her rights even if she has offended Princess Yong'an.

Seeing Lord An coming, Lu Xingwan just nodded to him slightly and motioned him to stand up.

Then he turned his gaze to Lord Jiang standing beside him and continued asking another question.

"I heard that Lord Jiang intends to marry his daughter to Duke An?"

Jiang Song felt a chill in his heart when he heard what Lu Xingwan said. He indeed had such thoughts.

This Duke of Anguo is a promising young man. It can be said that all the girls of marriageable age in the capital want to marry him.

If the Jiang family could marry the Duke of Anguo, it would undoubtedly be a great help to the Jiang family.

What's more, now in the huge Anguo Mansion, there is only Pei Chuyan.

If my daughter entered the mansion, she would be the mistress of the Anguo Mansion, and there would be no disputes between parents-in-law and sisters-in-law.

He was indeed planning this.

However, everyone in the capital city knew Pei Chuyan's temper, and he was afraid that he would offend him accidentally.

So Lord Jiang did not expect that the princess would bring up the matter so directly, and in front of Pei Chuyan.

For a moment, Lord Jiang felt a little embarrassed, and his eyes unconsciously glanced at Pei Chuyan standing beside him.

Pei Chuyan always had a gloomy look on his face, just like before.

Lord Jiang was even more afraid to speak when he saw him like this, so he could only bite the bullet and say casually: "Your Highness, that's not the case. It's just that my daughter is now of marriageable age, and it just so happens that Duke Anguo is discussing marriage, so my wife asked a few more questions."

In his eyes, no matter how smart or powerful Lu Xingwan is, she is just a little kid.

Just fool around with it.
