Chapter 596 Do I Look Idle?
He never took a little girl like Lu Xiang seriously. Firstly, she was not a threat, and secondly, he had big plans to pursue, so he would not waste his energy on Lu Xiang. But who would have thought that such a little girl would kill his two daughters and ruin the future of his son. Now that she was under the protection of the Duke of Anguo and the Eighth Prince, it would be difficult to touch her again.
Lu Xiang was the Eighth Imperial Concubine married by the Emperor's order. Without a foolproof plan to get rid of this girl in one blow, he would not act rashly, otherwise he would be targeted by the Eighth Prince. The Emperor would chop off his head and confiscate his property with the charge of murdering the Imperial Concubine.
However, this girl has offended a lot of people. With these people rushing forward, he only needs to push them in secret. If someone really comes out with the ability to get rid of Lu Xiang, he would be very grateful.
"In that case, then kill Qiao Yuanan." Chu Chengli said, his handsome and cold face without any extra expression, his eyes as heavy as iron and as cold as ice.
If he cannot use someone, there is no point in keeping him.
A reward from Qiao Jing was delivered to Qiao's residence the next day.
The sixth rank Zhaowu commander!
For a time, the Qiao family was the most powerful family.
Just half a year ago, a top scholar emerged, and not long after that, a military general emerged. We can’t see anything at the moment, but in a few years, these two people, one civil and one military, from the Qiao family will surely become important officials in the court.
Not to mention that the Qiao family and the Lu family are related by marriage. If you count them carefully, the backers behind the Qiao family are also extraordinary.
As soon as the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict left, people came flocking to bring gifts and visit.
After having Doctor Zheng take her pulse and prescribe medicine, Qiao Jingru stayed at the Qiao family for two days. She did not wait for Qiao Jingyi to return, but waited for Chu Jinyan.
He was wearing a black brocade robe with a black belt tied around his waist. His deep pupils were as bright as the stars in the world. His thin lips were lightly pursed, making it impossible to see through his emotions. It matched his innate temperament, as if he was the only one in the world.
"Eight... eight eight eight..." When Mr. Qiao saw the person coming, he was so excited that he couldn't speak straight. He kept repeating the same word, which made people frown.
Chu Jinyan's mouth twitched slightly: "Today is an auspicious day, I will accompany Qiao Yuanan to the Shen Mansion to propose marriage."
boom!
His words were like a thunderbolt, striking everyone on the head, leaving them burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
"Now?" Mr. Qiao came back to his senses after a long while, and asked with a scream as if he was scalded by boiling water.
Chu Jinyan looked at him expressionlessly and nodded his noble head.
"Your Highness, you are...you are joking..." Qiao Zhiyan swallowed hard and said in surprise.
Chu Jinyan glanced at him and said coldly, "Does your Highness look idle?"
I just came here to joke with you.
Qiao Zhiyan was choked and shook his head like a rattle: "No." Then he showed the calm demeanor of the eldest brother of the Qiao family, clasped his fists towards Chu Jinyan and said: "Your Highness, there must be a reason for saying this. My second brother has already prepared the betrothal gifts for the marriage proposal, but my second brother has gone to the Hanlin Academy. Your Highness, wait a moment, I will go and call him back."
My sister had said long ago that he would accompany her when she went to the Shen family to propose marriage, but she never expected him to be so anxious.
I don’t know if General Shen knows about this. Will their sudden visit scare people?
"Well, hurry up." Chu Jinyan said to Qiao Zhiyan.
Qiao Zhiyan nodded, then hurriedly asked someone to prepare the horse and left.
Master Qiao said with great fear and trepidation: "Your Highness, please move to the flower hall and sit for a while."
