Chapter 488 Rejection
Liang Minglang remained calm and pretended to be submissive, which made General Meng very happy.
There's hope.
While he was happy, he couldn't help but feel a little contempt. He had been so adamantly opposed back then, but now he was softening. Hadn't he finally acknowledged and accepted reality? What right had he to look down on him back then?
With such complicated feelings, General Meng finally got to the point with Liang Minglang.
Liang Minglang was completely stunned
He suspected that he was hallucinating, or that General Meng was drunk and talking nonsense.
"What did you say? Say it again."
General Meng had a meaningful, you-know-what smile on his face, and everyone was smiling at each other. "Your Majesty is so lucky! If you marry into the Rong'an Marquisate, not only will all the old grudges be wiped out, but with a veteran noble like the Rong'an Marquisate as your backer, you can use their resources and connections at will. Congratulations, Your Majesty! You have a bright future ahead of you, and you'll soon reach new heights, haha!"
"My Lord's luck is truly unbelievable!"
General Meng said this, but he was very dissatisfied in his heart.
Liang Minglang confirmed that he had heard and understood clearly, but he felt that the Rong'an Marquis's family was probably confused.
He wanted to marry into their family? To marry that young lady from the Bai family? And he was also asked to divorce his daughter Zhichun?
hehe!
What a big face, what a big tone.
"You don't have to be envious. When did I agree?"
General Meng was stunned. "What?"
"I have never had such intentions. If it was the Rong'an Marquisate who sent you here, tell them exactly what I said. I have no interest in marrying into the Rong'an Marquisate. I already have a wife and will never marry again."
General Meng opened his mouth: "."
He couldn't tell what he felt. He couldn't believe it, but also felt inexplicably happy.
He couldn't help but ask, "My Lord, are you really willing to give it up?"
Liang Minglang sneered, "What do you mean by 'reluctant to give up'? What does this have to do with me?"
"That's the Rong'an Marquis's Mansion! There's also Concubine Xue in the palace."
The emperor currently has only two princesses and no princes. Concubine Xue has a family background and the support of the Empress Dowager, so the possibility of her having great fortune in the future is very high.
After all, if the queen could give birth, she would have done so long ago. Why would she wait until now?
Apart from the Queen, isn't Concubine Xue the most likely candidate?
Such overwhelming wealth.
Liang Minglang remained calm and said, "None of this has anything to do with me."
He stood up and said, "Don't look for me again."
He really disappointed him. It would be better if everyone did not have any private contact in the future. He could not escape from official business, but that was all.
When Liang Minglang stood up, he was still a little dazed. He had never expected that a person could change so completely, so completely that he became a complete stranger to others.
What’s past is past.
Different paths.
General Meng wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he met Liang Minglang's cold gaze and was instantly speechless.
He felt anxious, ashamed, angry, incredulous, and inexplicably relieved.
After all, he still didn't want to see Liang Minglang move to a higher level.
The Rong'an Marquisate asked him to help, and he readily agreed, just to establish a relationship with the Rong'an Marquisate and make the Rong'an Marquisate owe him a favor.
But Liang Minglang refused, although he actually wanted it too.
Liang Minglang had been gone for a long time before General Meng sneered, "Why are you pretending? You're just aloof."
General Meng hurried to the Rong'an Marquis' Mansion to reply.
After sending him off, Rong'an Marquis's wife couldn't help but grit her teeth and said, "Who the hell does Liang think he is? How dare he refuse! Or is Xu a jealous woman who can't tolerate anyone?"
Rong An Hou's face was also very unhappy. "You are an ungrateful thing. If that's the case, then forget it. Find a good family for your niece."
Although the current situation of the Bai family is not very good, the Bai family is rich and has a marriage with the Rong'an Marquis Mansion. Bai Jinfu can still pick a good husband, at most he will not be of high birth.
The wife of Marquis Rong'an was upset.
She originally thought that this matter was a done deal and could be settled with just one word, and she had finally persuaded her sister to agree with all her words. Now she was asked to tell her sister that Liang Minglang didn't like Jinfu?
How could she open her mouth like that?
She had to open her mouth even if she couldn't. And it was not a small matter. She had to open it herself.
Sure enough, as soon as the wife of Marquis Rong'an finished her hesitant words, Aunt Bai exploded.
"What!"
"That bitch actually looked down on my Jinfu? That's not what you said at the beginning! My Jinfu is a good girl, how could she endure such humiliation! How dare they, how dare they!"
"Sister, what did you tell me at that time? Why did it happen like this?"
The wife of Marquis Rong'an was very depressed. If she had known earlier, she would not have cared about such trivial matters. Now she is in a difficult situation.
She had no choice but to accept the scolding from her sister, and had to swallow her anger and comfort her, saying that she would definitely find a good marriage for her niece.
Aunt Bai cried for a while, but then said bitterly with tears in her eyes: "No, since you have asked this question, we can't just let it go like this. This marriage must be completed."
Otherwise, what would happen to her son?
Aunt Bai's mind is now full of her son. Whenever she thinks that her son is still in exile, she feels heartbroken and wakes up in pain almost every night.
Mrs. Rong'an was not expecting her to say that. She was a little dumbfounded. "W-what?"
Aunt Bai sneered, "Is my Jinfu really that worthless? Can he just pick and choose and say no? This marriage must be done. With time, I don't believe Jinfu won't be able to win him over."
He could save his son, and it would sound good if his daughter became the marquis' wife. He could also severely strike back and take revenge on the culprit Xu Zhichun. It was a very profitable deal no matter how you looked at it.
Aunt Bai still disliked, or even hated, Liang Minglang, but this did not affect her determination to facilitate this marriage.
The wife of the Marquis of Rong'an was completely dumbfounded: "."
"Sister, you have to help with this."
The wife of Marquis Rong'an sighed. What should she do?
You can't just ask a matchmaker to come to your house and talk.
General Meng had such a good relationship with Liang Minglang, yet he had already bluntly rejected him. Who else could he turn to as a lobbyist? What if he refused again? Did the Xue and Bai families still have any shame?
The wife of Marquis Rong'an had no choice but to discuss with her husband, and hesitantly asked her husband if he could go talk to Liang Minglang.
Marquis Rong'an was almost angry to death.
What a mess!
Let him go? Is Liang worthy?
He is the real Old Taishan, but he actually has to turn around and ask Liang Minglang for help?
What kind of reversal of Tiangang is this!
The amazing thing is that Marquis Rong'an actually went there in the end.
Perhaps he still didn't give up, thinking that Xu Zhichun's daughter was on his side, but was just too embarrassed to say it out loud and was being stubborn. So, it wouldn't be a bad idea for him to talk to Liang Minglang.
