Chapter 225 Four-Year Agreement
Everyone was analyzing the situation one after another, and no one noticed that Yun Liu wanted to speak several times but was unable to get a word in.
Please don't be like this. Can you consider his feelings?
"Father……"
Finally, he squeezed out two words, and Lu Yan immediately turned his big hand to support Yun Liu's shoulder. His expression was very serious, and he held his breath and said, "Yun Liu, listen to me. For the sake of tens of thousands of soldiers not being annihilated, and for the sake of the foundation of Qi and Yan, you don't want to see Qi and Yan fall apart, right? So, I agree with Xiaodie's idea. You can pretend to be the fake prince."
"What, I..."
"Don't worry, Yunliu. Once General Minyuan withdraws his troops and garrisons in Wo County, we will definitely find a way to rescue you." Ding Gui felt that this was a risky move, but he had no choice but to do so in order to avoid the destruction of the country.
Lu Chenhe and Lu Xingluo remained silent, frowning, wishing they could take the risk instead of Yun Liu.
But that's not possible, because their birth books are recorded in the government office. Unlike Yun Liu, he is a blank slate and can fabricate his life story however he wants.
Yun Liu opened his mouth. It was thought that he would do his best to persuade everyone not to let him go, but after a brief pause, he actually pursed his lips and said, "Father, I want to say that for the sake of Qi and Yan, I am willing to take this risk, but there is something very important that I need to mention to you right now."
"Son, just say it's okay." Hearing that he was so concerned about the overall situation at such a young age, Lu Yan was moved. Of course, he would agree to whatever he wanted, even if it meant asking his old godfather to pick stars from the sky.
But no one expected Yun Liu to look at Ding Xiaodie seriously and say, "I want to marry Xiaodie."
Everyone: “…”
Ding Xiaodie's face turned pale: "..."
Lu Chenhe's hands at his side suddenly clenched into fists: "..."
Ding Guice was happy at first, he didn't expect his daughter to be so popular, but then he felt something was wrong, Yun Liu had no fixed place to live and his personality gave people a mysterious feeling, although he had a good appearance.
But the key point is that it can be seen with the naked eye that Xiaodie doesn't pay much attention to him.
At this critical moment of life and death, this guy actually raised the price and used this matter to threaten everyone. It was really unkind.
Look, even Mr. Lu is confused by these questions.
Ding Gui thought that it seemed that he was the only one who could resolve this matter. However, when he was about to speak, he heard Lu Chenhe say with a cold and handsome face: "Yun Liu, I met Xiao Die before you."
"Brother, I know you have Xiaodie in your heart, but I've heard that you were engaged when you were little, and your wife is in the capital right now. If that's true, how can you marry Xiaodie?"
"What?"
Everyone was drunk, and they didn't expect Yun Liu to find out such a thing. It turned out that Young Master Lu had an arranged marriage.
Before everyone knew how to react, even Lu Chenhe's face turned black. When he was about to get angry and defend himself, he heard Ding Xiaodie roar.
Then she rushed to Lu Chenhe and grabbed his collar: "Lu Chenhe, tell me, are you really engaged?"
Lu Chenhe's pale face suddenly turned red: "Xiaodie, listen to my explanation."
"Explain, then there is one, and I won't listen."
"No, Xiaodie, listen to me..."
The two of them suddenly started arguing like a young couple.
Ding Gui watched this and secretly broke into a sweat. This wouldn't do. His daughter would appear too tough and would scare the eldest young master and Lu... uh, Master Lu? ? !
When Ding Gui turned around, he saw Mr. Lu's face full of surprise and dullness, as if telling everyone that he couldn't do anything about it, and let the younger generation deal with their own affairs!
Well, let’s all leave first!
So Ding Gui stepped forward and pulled Mr. Lu, then grabbed Lu Xingluo's sleeve, and Village Chief Lai Fu, and said, "Come on, let's go out and bask in the sun first."
Soon, only Ding Xiaodie and Lu Chenhe were left in the tent, as well as Yun Liu who was standing aside chewing a straw.
Ding Xiaodie is very, very angry now.
Why is she angry? He is not her boyfriend. They have just been flirting with each other for a while. Why is she angry? It seems like she cares about him a lot.
But even though he said this in his heart, he was still angry. His little face was puffy and he was panting, and his clear eyes were wide open.
She was unwilling to accept that she had held back for two lifetimes before falling in love, only to end up like this.
Lu Chenhe was so glared at by her that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He reached out to help the little girl remove the dry grass on her head, but his hand was knocked down by her.
Very helpless.
"Xiao Die, that childhood engagement was arranged when my mother was still pregnant. I've never met the other person, and I was planning to cancel the engagement before you even arrived in Yangliu Town. I heard the other party is also planning to cancel the engagement. The woman seems to like officials in the imperial court and disdains businessmen like us. Don't listen to Yun Liu's nonsense. He's only asking for superficial information."
Ding Xiaodie was still angry: "But you never told me."
"I…I haven't had time yet."
Yun stayed aside and said sarcastically: "Brother, this is called insincerity."
Lu Chenhe turned around and said in a low voice: "Yunliu, stop messing around."
"I'm not messing around."
Yun Liu's expression was unusually serious, and his narrow eyes were as deep as the sea. "It's true that I asked Mother to propose marriage to the Ding family the first time, and it's also true that I told Father this time. But seeing that Xiaodie is so embarrassed, why don't the three of us make a four-year agreement? When Xiaodie turns sixteen, whoever she likes then will marry her."
Lu Chenhe thought this was too absurd: "How can brothers become rivals in love? That's not okay."
"I think it's okay."
The person who said this was Ding Xiaodie, who was so angry that she wanted to beat someone up just now.
She gritted her teeth and raised her chin proudly: "Master, just do as the Third Master says."
Seeing that time was passing by, Ding Xiaodie came to her senses and tried to control her emotions. Now was not the time to talk about these things.
If she didn't agree, Yun Liu would have to dwell on this topic.
In short, the longer it takes, the more detrimental it will be to everything.
Who knows when the desert soldiers will attack? And it will take time for General Min’s army to retreat, right?
So she had to agree. Actually, it was a good idea to wait for four years. After four years, maybe someone would know who was who.
Seeing her firm attitude, Lu Chenhe had no choice but to agree: "Okay, it's a deal."
His eyes revealed an imperceptible heartache. If he had known this would happen... he should have been honest with Xiaodie. As for the proposal of marriage, why didn't he talk to Yunliu first?
Thinking about it now, my heart is filled with regret and remorse.
"Okay, Yunliu, now let me tell you what to do later."
Ding Xiaodie shifted her gaze away from Lu Chenhe's brows and began to calmly discuss with Yun Liu how to deceive General Min Yuan.
Then he called Ding Gui and Mr. Lu into the tent.
When these old guys saw that the two brothers didn't fight, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, are young people nowadays so calm beyond their age when dealing with emotional matters?
