Chapter 85 The Marriage Failed



“Is it that obvious?” Yu Yuanzheng rubbed his face.

She wanted to wipe away the smile on her face, but she was so happy in her heart that the corners of her mouth remained curled up no matter how hard she tried.

"Stop rubbing it." Shangguan Ziqi pushed the wheelchair closer to her and pulled her hand down. "Did you tip off the Marquis' Mansion about Zifeng's mistress?"

"Why do you doubt me?" Yu Yuanzheng looked at Shangguan Ziqi's affirmative expression in disbelief.

"Didn't I tell you? When I have a sense of the outside world, I will listen to you carefully. When you were instructing Xia Yu to do something, I was awake."

"Oh!" Yu Yuanzheng slapped his forehead.

She had forgotten about this and should have avoided him at that time.

"Do you object to me doing this?" Yu Yuanzheng asked, staring into his eyes.

"How could that be? Madam, you are right to do so. I fully agree with you, but you must not let Second Uncle and the others know about this."

"I would have to be stupid to let them know. Even the Marquis' Mansion didn't know it was me who gave them the news." Yu Yuanzheng said this with pride.

"Madam, when can I get the purse that I asked for?" Shangguan Ziqi changed the subject.

"Do you need it urgently?"

"I like the purse that Madam embroidered."

Yu Yuanzhen couldn't respond to this.

This guy is expressing his affection for her everywhere.

"I, I'm going to embroider now." Yu Yuanzheng fled in panic.

Shangguan Ziqi was always flirting with her like this, and she was a little overwhelmed.

The next afternoon.

The old lady and the wife of Ning'an Marquis came to the palace in person to pay a visit.

No visiting card was sent in advance.

As soon as the second old lady and the second wife got the news, they came to the main courtyard immediately.

But the old marquis's wife and the marquis's wife didn't even look at them.

"My dear Princess, I am so sorry. Our Yuying is not lucky enough to be the daughter-in-law of the prince's mansion.

I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed that my daughter Yuying suffered all kinds of torture after marrying into the palace, and eventually died of depression.

The pain in my heart is unbearable.

As soon as I got up this morning, I went to Huguo Temple to ask the monk to help me calculate what this dream meant.

As a result, the monk said that my daughter Yuying had a bad fate and needed to marry a husband with water in his destiny to improve her fate.

I also asked a senior monk to calculate the fate of Zifeng and Zizi in your family. Zifeng and Zizi's fate does not contain water, so they are not suitable to be husband and wife.

It’s all my fault that I didn’t compare their horoscopes at the beginning. I just found a fortune teller to do the calculation and then agreed to their marriage.

Fortunately, there is still time.

Let’s call off the marriage between our two families.

I am really sorry. "

As the marquis's wife spoke, she began to wipe away her tears.

The meaning of her words was obvious. She was just looking for an excuse to save face for both families.

In order to make this excuse, he even made a special trip to the Huguo Temple and arrived in the afternoon, showing great consideration for the palace's reputation.

"Madam Hou, you can't do this. Zifeng will definitely change. He has been punished yesterday, and he will definitely treat Yuying well in the future." The second lady couldn't help but stepped forward to plead.

But the wife of the marquis ignored her and just stared at the princess.

"Madam Marquis, you have to think it over carefully. A woman who has broken off an engagement should not marry into a rich family again." The second old lady said expressionlessly.

She even puts on a high-handed attitude and doesn't even know how to say something soft.

"My daughter is unlucky and cannot marry Zifeng, the son of the second wife of the palace." Madam Hou said coldly.

She is not a pushover, so she won't tolerate such rudeness.

To put it bluntly, the Second Old Lady was just a concubine of the old prince. Even though her daughter was a concubine in the palace, she did not ask for an imperial decree to confer a title on her.

Mrs. Hou's status is much higher than hers.

"You..., you, you have to. Second son's wife, let's go." The second old lady poked her crutch, waved her hand and left.

Her grandson is the prince's nephew, is he afraid that he won't be able to marry a noble lady?

See what kind of man the daughter of the Marquis's family will marry in the future after she breaks off her engagement.

As soon as those two left, the princess took full charge.

"Madam Hou, would you please consider this matter?" the princess asked gently.

"To be honest, I don't want to cancel the engagement, but Yuying is determined to do so. She even threatened me and her father with death." When she said this, the marquis's wife wiped away her tears sadly again.

As a mother, how could I bear to let my daughter die?

"Okay, eldest daughter-in-law, now that you have made up your mind, give the marriage certificate and the list of betrothal gifts to the princess, and send Ying to live on the farm for a while." The old marquis's wife ordered.

The Marquis's wife then took out the marriage certificate and betrothal gift list from her bosom and gave them to the princess.

The betrothal gifts were not brought directly, they had to be negotiated by both parties before they were sent.

"Alas, our two families were still thinking of becoming in-laws. Zifeng is such a disappointing kid, and I don't know who led him astray." The princess was also helpless.

No one could fail to understand the meaning of her words.

Fortunately, the two children from their eldest wife did not grow up to be bad.

"Madam Marquis, the palace and the marquis's palace are not in-laws, but they can be friends. Yuying and I have a very good relationship. If she wants, she can come to the palace to play with me anytime." Yu Yuanzheng, who was standing aside, said with a smile.

"Of course, of course. The eldest young lady is the savior of our Zhengxing. This friendship is very deep." Madam Hou was full of gratitude towards Yu Yuanzheng.

"Then I will call you Aunt Ma from now on, okay?" Yu Yuanzheng suggested.

She's always called Madam Hou. It's so awkward to call her Madam Hou.

"Of course she is. The princess really married a wonderful daughter-in-law." The Marquis's wife said enviously.

"Yes, Zheng'er is indeed a naughty child." The princess nodded in agreement.

"Come on, please stop praising me, my two elders. I might become complacent."

"Ha ha……"

After hearing Yu Yuanzheng's jokes, everyone burst into laughter, and the depressing atmosphere was no longer there.

The old marquis's wife and the marquis's wife said goodbye and left.

All the betrothal gifts were brought to the palace that afternoon.

The marriage certificate was also torn up in front of him.

The marriage between the two families was called off.

This matter soon spread like wildfire in the capital.

The Marquis's Mansion sent Yue Yuying to a farm outside the capital to avoid the limelight temporarily.

Shangguan Zifeng, who was punished by the prince, could not bear the punishment and fell seriously ill.

No one sympathized with him.

After he grew up, the prince really threw him into the military camp and made him start as an ordinary soldier.

The second wife started to get busy again, arranging girls from other families for him.

Unfortunately, people of high social status all stay away from it.

Either recommend a concubine's daughter to her, or introduce some daughters of low-ranking officials to her.

But how could the Second Lady be interested in such a woman?

After all, her Zifeng is Prince Rong's nephew.

Almost half a month has passed.

During this time, Yu Yuanzheng secretly pretended to be a miracle doctor and went to Mr. Jin's house to see him again.

And that day, her father was also on his way to the Jin Mansion.

The father and daughter happened to meet at the gate.

Yu Yuanzheng deliberately walked past her father in a mysterious manner, pretending not to know him.

Yu Yunzhi stared at the miracle doctor's back.

It looks familiar no matter how you look at it.

The legend of the miracle doctor in Beijing was widely known, but he would never associate her with his daughter.

Yu Yunzhi waited outside first, and only went in after the miracle doctor finished examining him.

When they passed each other again, the familiar feeling was hard for him to ignore.

Yu Yuanzheng, who got on the carriage, kept patting his chest.

"Xia Yu, next time you go to Boss Jin's house, make sure to find out if my dad will be there."

"Yes, Madam."

A group of miracle doctors came to Shiritang.

Lin Houdeju received another invitation from someone to find a miracle doctor, who was willing to pay 10,000 taels of silver.

"Whose family is it?"

Although Yu Yuanzheng is not short of money now, the thought of ten thousand taels of silver is still tempting.
