Chapter 605 Dad, Don’t Make Trouble
In the main hall, Duke Anguo sat on a chair with great determination, rubbing his face with his hands from time to time, and occasionally turning sideways to ask Song Yanjun who was sitting next to him: "Son, how does Daddy look? Is he gentler and kinder?"
The He family used to be a family of military generals, and when he was young, he followed the old marquis to fight in the battlefield. But now He Yu is a timid person. After injuring a leg, he gave up military service and turned to literature. He hid in the capital and became the Jingzhao Yin, but he didn't do anything significant. Song Nanchuan looked down on He Yu, a soft dough boy, from the bottom of his heart.
However, since his son was going to marry his daughter, he couldn't show his contempt so strongly.
Song Yanjun's fingers were nervously buckling his belt. Hearing what was said, he turned his head to look at his father, only to see Song Nanchuan making faces. That wide grin made him look like a gangster who was coming to challenge him.
"Dad, you'd better stop laughing." Song Yanjun said with a frown.
Song Nanchuan: "..."
Humph, who am I being so humble for, and yet you still despise him?
"Your humble servant greets His Majesty. I was not aware that His Majesty was visiting us. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person."
He Yu strode into the hall and politely saluted Song Nanchuan with his fists clasped.
Song Nanchuan quickly stood up and returned the greeting: "Hello, Lord He, you and I will become relatives soon, so there is no need to be so polite."
The corner of He Yu's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at the expressionless Song Nanchuan with a tingling scalp.
Looking at your expression without even a smile, if someone knows you're here to become my relative, then someone else would think you're here to steal my girl.
"Heh... heh..." He Yu glanced at Song Yanjun with a dry smile, racking his brains to think of what to say: "Well, you said a few days ago that you would let my daughter consider it, why are you..." He suddenly came to propose marriage.
Having said this, he glanced towards the yard outside, trying to express his unfinished words with his eyes.
Song Nanchuan noticed He Yu's embarrassment and immediately glared at Song Yanjun.
What happened? You swore to me to propose marriage, but in the end, I forced it on you. The He family didn't agree at all.
Song Nanchuan felt that he had been fooled by his son, and his dark gaze slashed at Song Yanjun like a knife.
Song Yanjun winked at Song Nanchuan: Dad, stop making trouble. Am I such an unreliable person?
Song Nanchuan rolled his eyes secretly: You're the only one who does this to me. I'm almost losing face.
Song Yanjun gritted his teeth and retracted his gaze. He did not want to argue with his own father. He looked at He Yu with a gentle and humble smile and said, "Lord He, it is precisely because of Yan'er's first plea that I came to propose marriage."
What?
Now it was He Yu's turn to be confused.
Yan Er agreed? Why didn't he know about this?
There was no way that Prince Song would joke about this matter. After being shocked, He Yu quickly found an excuse to go to He Zhiyan's yard.
Song Yanjun knew the purpose of He Yu's leaving, but he didn't expose it. He humbly and politely said that he could wait for a moment.
As soon as He Yu left, Song Nanchuan couldn't wait to ask, "Are you kidding me?"
Song Yanjun twitched his lips speechlessly: "Dad, can I joke about this? And if I used some trickery to force her to marry me, why would I have come to ask for Marquis Wu'an's approval to propose marriage a few days ago?"
Isn't this a waste of time?
Song Nanchuan nodded when he heard this: "That's good. I'm not afraid of using force. Liang Heyu doesn't dare to really offend me. But if you keep me in the dark, I'll be embarrassed."
