Lin Muheng: "I don't know, but we should have received the news by now."
At this moment, Jiang Chuwei had already left the main hall with Shen'er.
His parents and brothers remained to speak with the Prince of Yu.
Once her parents learned of her feelings, they naturally agreed to let Prince Yu come to their door to ask for their daughter's hand in marriage.
Seeing their confusion, Lin Muheng said, "My father already knows about what happened yesterday. I came to your residence today only to ask if the general agrees to let my daughter marry me. After I receive your consent, I will immediately go to the palace to report to my father and ask him to grant me the marriage."
Jiang Zhongyong looked at Prince Yu, wondering if he was being too naive. The emperor wouldn't give in so easily.
However, if that time really comes, he will be willing to swallow his pride and go to the palace for his daughter's happiness.
Madam Jiang asked, "I wonder if Your Highness intends to have the Emperor bestow upon my daughter the title of principal wife or concubine?"
If she were not the principal wife, the General's Mansion would not consider marrying his daughter to her; daughters of the Jiang family would not become concubines.
Jiang He's expression suddenly turned cold.
In their hearts, the fact that their younger sister became a concubine disgraced her status as the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion and also disgraced the General's Mansion.
Their sister would never become a concubine.
To outsiders, the concubine of Prince Yu might be something many people dream of having.
But the Jiang family didn't care.
My younger sister is a second wife, and only the position of principal wife is worthy of her.
Jiang Hai stared intently at Lin Muheng. If he uttered the words "concubine," he and his second brother would ruthlessly drive the prince out.
Lin Muheng looked puzzled: "She must be the principal wife! In this whole life, Wei'er is the only wife I have ever married in a grand and dignified manner, so the position of principal wife belongs to her alone."
"What did you say?" Everyone in the Jiang family asked in surprise.
“I said, in this lifetime, I will not have any concubines, secondary concubines, maids, or concubines by my side. I don’t want anyone except Wei’er.”
Lin Muheng spoke with great seriousness.
Upon hearing the Prince of Yu's words, the room fell completely silent.
"What if Wei'er has no children?" Madam Jiang broke the silence.
"The Lin family doesn't need me to continue their lineage," Lin Muheng replied casually.
Jiang Zhongyong couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what you'll lose by saying these words today?"
"What I lost is nothing compared to what I gained. To marry Wei'er is enough for the rest of my life."
"Can Your Highness really keep his promise to have only one wife, Wei'er, for his entire life?" Madam Jiang couldn't hide her excitement.
A prince in Daqing can have one principal wife, two secondary wives, and four concubines, with no limit on maids and servants.
Now the prince says that Wei'er is his only official wife.
In ordinary families, having three wives and four concubines is common.
The Jiang family couldn't be happier that the Prince of Yu could make such a promise.
Madam Jiang believed that her husband was the only man in Daqing who was not interested in women.
I never expected that Prince Yu, a prince, would go to such lengths for his daughter.
For this reason alone, Madam Jiang fully supported the two getting married.
Mrs. Jiang's face was full of smiles at this moment.
"I didn't expect that Prince Yu is such a sentimental person. It is Wei'er's good fortune to meet you. I will trouble you to take good care of her in the future."
This means she has agreed to the marriage.
General Jiang echoed, "I'm not just praising my daughter, but Wei'er's character, talent, and beauty are all exceptional. It's only because she's valued by the Prince that she deserves it."
What he didn't say was that, looking at the entire capital, Jiang Zhongyong's daughter could marry anyone.
None of them expected that the Prince of Yu would make such a promise to them.
With the promise from Prince Yu, they felt at ease entrusting their daughter to him.
Yesterday, Prince Yu must have deliberately rescued his daughter in full view of everyone.
Looking back now, Madam Jiang belatedly realized the truth and broke out in a cold sweat.
If Prince Jin had succeeded yesterday, the Emperor would certainly have blocked his daughter's marriage to Prince Yu.
Lin Muheng's interference disrupted Prince Jin's plans and was also a way to force the Emperor to agree to a marriage alliance with the General's Mansion.
After all, it was Prince Jin who plotted against the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion, and it was Prince Yu who came to her rescue.
The emperor wanted to separate the lovers, but he needed to find a suitable excuse.
"Does Your Highness think the Emperor will agree?" Jiang Zhongyong asked.
"It's not that easy, but I've come up with a plan. Please rest assured, General," Lin Muheng said confidently.
Now, the father and mother have agreed to the Prince of Yu marrying his sister.
Jianghe and Jianghai are the eldest brother-in-law.
Jiang He spoke more casually, saying, "Has Your Highness been eyeing my sister for a long time?"
Lin Muheng glared at him: "What do you think, Second Young Master?"
The atmosphere immediately became more relaxed.

Yunxiangyuan
Dong Hua vividly recounted everything he had heard.
"Miss! The Prince said that from now on, you will be the only one in his harem!" Donghua exclaimed excitedly.
The maids were all astonished when they heard this.
Jiang Chuwei just smiled and didn't say anything.
"Miss! Aren't you surprised?" Donghua found it unbelievable.
Even the master and mistress were astonished.
Why aren't you surprised at all, Miss?
Jiang Chuwei, in order to cooperate with the maids, asked, "Is this really true?"
"Absolutely true!" Dong Hua beamed.
"Your Highness! You really are a good man!" Jiang Chuwei's exaggerated expression amused Chunxiaqiudong.
They never imagined that their young lady, after leaving the Marquis of Pingyang's residence, would become a princess.
Miss is so lucky. Seeing that the maids were all very happy, Jiang Chuwei let them make a fuss.
In his previous life, Lin Muheng did not marry.
Jiang Chuwei wondered if it was because she was married that Prince Yu preferred to remain single rather than settle for someone else.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chuwei felt a pang of heartache for no reason.
In this life, she must treat him very well.
"Miss, why does Prince Yu always seem so devoted to you? When did you meet Prince Yu?" Xia Qi found it unbelievable.
The young lady and Prince Yu's interaction was as if they had known each other for many years.
But these maids are practically inseparable from their mistress. Could it be that they met during the three years the mistress was away from home?
Jiang Chuwei was also thinking about this issue.
Although Jiang Chuwei found Lin Muheng's remarks reasonable, they were still unexpected.
If it weren't for the memories of their previous life, Jiang Chuwei and Lin Muheng would practically be strangers.
Jiang Chuwei couldn't recall any memories of the period before she was eight years old.
My father, mother, and brothers also kept that experience a deep secret.
The only thing Jiang Chuwei was certain of was that she once had a mysterious and unpredictable master.
Before her wedding, her master came to the general's mansion to stop her from marrying into the Pingyang Marquis's family.
After failing to persuade her parents, she then considered secretly taking Jiang Chuwei away.
However, after her father discovered it that time, she completely broke ties with her master.
Jiang Chuwei still remembers her master's utterly disappointed face: "Young Master Lu is not the right person for you. You will regret it in the future."
Unexpectedly, my master saw further than anyone else.
But where is Master now?
Now that she is to marry the Prince of Yu, will her master object?
