Chapter 286 Minghua is tough

"Master Qin, I have neither fame nor achievements, so I am not worthy of such a great responsibility and I am ashamed to be included in your family."

"I am still young and want to bang my head against the wall first."

Lu Minghua had a calm expression and a calm voice.

"You don't know what's good for you!" Grand Tutor Qin blew his beard and glared.

"To tell you the truth, you can't postpone the wedding just because you want to."

"Lu Minghua, don't refuse a toast and then drink the punishment wine."

Lu Minghua remained calm and looked at Qin Wanrou, "What do you think, Miss Qin Wu?"

Qin Wanrou's heart skipped a beat.

She heard in Lu Minghua's calm voice the determination to never give up until the goal was achieved.

Are you going to fall out?

But the Qin family is powerful. Does the Yongning Marquisate dare to break off relations with the Qin family?

Thinking of this, Qin Wanrou calmed herself down.

"Mr. Lu, please forgive me."

"My parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, I dare not speak nonsense."

"Excuse me, Master Lu, does your father know that you have come here to postpone the wedding date?"

Lu Minghua sneered, "What a matchmaker's words and parents' orders."

"Miss Qin Wu is very polite."

Then he changed the subject and said, "Master Qin, if you don't want to postpone the wedding, then cancel the engagement."

"Father has been ordered by His Majesty to stay in the palace. I'm afraid he can't come here to apologize."

"Grand Tutor Qin is a high-ranking official. I think he must be very clear-sighted. How could he not have found out the truth of last year's scandal with his wisdom?"

"In that case, I am happy to answer all your questions for Grand Master Qin."

"Mr. Lu." Qin Wanrou spoke out to stop him, with pleading eyes.

Lu Minghua said coldly, "Miss Qin Wu, I am the victim of the conspiracy."

Grand Tutor Qin frowned and was confused as he listened.

He is so busy with his work that he has no time to care about the details of this scandal.

He only knew that Lu Minghua and his concubine's daughter Wanrou couldn't control their emotions at the plum blossom viewing banquet.

Afterwards, the Yongning Marquis and his wife took the initiative to come to his house to pay compensation and apologize, and tried their best to promote the marriage. Coincidentally, he also took a fancy to Lu Minghua's talent and potential, so he agreed to it.

Originally, he heard that Lu Minghua was in love with Fu Xi, so he intended to use Fu Xi to win over Lu Minghua.

But he also felt that it was not worth losing Fuxi.

When he was still hesitant and hadn't made up his mind, Wanrou solved the problem for him.

"Master Qin, your daughter arranged for the maid to knock over the wine and wet your clothes, and then hid in the guest room where you changed your clothes, and quietly lit the aphrodisiac incense."

"From the beginning to the end, I have never been happy about this marriage."

Lu Minghua ignored Qin Wanrou's pleas and spoke directly.

There was no deliberate concealment, nor was there any exaggeration.

I am just stating the most objective facts.

"How dare you!" Grand Tutor Qin slammed the table.

Lu Minghua looked directly into Grand Tutor Qin's angry eyes and said, "Whether it is true or not, Grand Tutor Qin will know once he asks."

"Grand Master Qin angrily rebuked me for treading on the Qin family's reputation, but little did I know that I kept this matter deep in my heart, just to preserve the Qin family's greatest reputation and face."

"The Qin family is prosperous, and it's not just Miss Qin Wu."

"If the Fifth Miss Qin's actions were to become known, the reputation of the Qin family's children would be greatly affected."

Grand Tutor Qin’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Wanrou, do you accept what Lu Minghua said?"

Qin Wanrou's body trembled slightly, and she closed her eyes in despair, then slowly opened them again, her eyes full of sorrow. "Father, it's Mr. Lu's sister, who used sweet words to deceive my daughter's mind."

"She knew her daughter was infatuated with Mr. Lu, so she took advantage of this and made up a lie to gain her daughter's trust. She promised her daughter that she could make this marriage happen so that her daughter could marry Mr. Lu."

"However, before the truth was revealed, the daughter knew nothing about it and was completely deceived by her trick."

"I hope my father can see clearly."

Lu Minghua hit the nail on the head, "It's not that I didn't know this method was possible, but I didn't expect someone to add fuel to the fire and attract so many people to watch."

"Miss Qin Wu, why did you pick yourself so cleanly?"

Grand Tutor Qin's mind turned, and he said in a deep voice, "Your sister is involved in this, you..."

"Grand Master, does my sister still have a good reputation?" Lu Minghua asked righteously.

Master Qin paused as he stroked his beard.

He was speechless after hearing this.

Lu Minghui's reputation is already ruined.

One more or one less does not matter.

But if the situation gets out of hand, it will do more harm than good to the Qin family.

After weighing the pros and cons, Master Qin came up with an answer: "The wedding date can be postponed!"

"But you must promise to marry Wanrou after the imperial examination next year."

"And I kept the truth about the scandal at last year's winter flower viewing party to myself."

"Thank you, Grand Tutor Qin, for your support." Lu Minghua bowed his head and said.

Master Qin sneered, "You are more courageous and arrogant than your father."

"But people with strong character and pride usually don't live long."

In terms of pride, who can compare to the Xie family of the former Duke of Xin?

What's the result!

The whole clan was wiped out.

"Young man, you still have a long way to go."

Lu Minghua smiled and said, "If you are young and behave yourself, how is that different from an old man who is about to die?"

"But I still want to thank Master Qin for his warning."

Master Qin narrowed his eyes, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"If you don't care about Lu Minghui, what about Lu Mingchao?"

"I have heard a little bit about what happened between her and Gu. What do you think I should do to help the couple get together?"

The malice in Grand Tutor Qin's voice was not concealed at all.

Lu Minghua raised his head sharply and said, "Even an ant dares to shake a tree, Master Qin, be careful with your words!"

"I know that Grand Master Qin's family is the most powerful and has absolute power. The Yongning Marquisate is no match for Grand Master Qin, but when a dog is cornered, it will jump over the wall, and when a rabbit is cornered, it will bite."

"If Grand Tutor Qin makes a move on Chao Chao, I will tear off a piece of Grand Tutor Qin's flesh even if I risk my life."

Lu Minghua did not pretend nothing happened.

Everyone knows about the brother-sister relationship between him and Chao Chao.

Suddenly, Master Qin laughed.

You can't tell whether he's happy or angry, it sounds sinister.

"This Master is really becoming more and more optimistic about you, kid."

"Lu Minghua, before you bite me, please think about it. I am Fu Xi's father."

"When one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer."

"Wanrou, show the guest out."

Lu Minghua said in a deep voice, "It turns out that Grand Master Qin also knows what I mean."

"The feelings that never began cannot compare to the brother-sister relationship that has lasted for more than ten years."

"She is not my wife, she is just an outsider."

"To wrong your loved ones because of outsiders is not what a gentleman does."

"Wanrou, show the guests out!" Grand Tutor Qin repeated.

Qin Wanrou raised her hand and said, "Mr. Lu, please."

Before the study door closed, Qin Wanrou glanced at Grand Tutor Qin's study almost greedily.

The study is an important place, but that’s all.

On the trail.

Qin Wanrou considered it over and over again, and finally spoke, with a barely perceptible tremor in her voice, "Mr. Lu, are you postponing the wedding date for the sake of the imperial examination, or are you unwilling to marry me?"

"Mr. Lu postponed the wedding date. Did you expect what kind of rumors I would face?"

Lu Minghua pulled away and asked, "Miss Qin Wu, when you were plotting against Lu, could you have anticipated Lu's situation?"

"I just love you. Is it wrong for me to want to be with you?" Qin Wanrou's eyes were red and she looked tearful. She looked like an orchid shrouded in mist, very lovable.

Lu Minghua looked straight ahead and said, "I just don't have any feelings for you. Is that wrong?"

"Miss Qin Wu, please don't make selfishness sound so fresh and unconventional."

Qin Wanrou sobbed, "Can you try to look at me?"

Who dares to stop her?
