Chapter 528: Marriage
The whole yard was filled with betrothal gift boxes.
The gate was open, and the people watching at the door were looking at the dazzling array of treasures, all marveling at Song Ruize's generosity.
"Isn't it said that this Lord Song is from a commoner family? How come he is more generous than those aristocratic families?"
"You know the snack shop, right? It's his. I heard there are hundreds of branches all over the country. Do you think he has money?"
"I heard that the two grew up together and had been engaged since they were young. The snack shop is a joint business between the two."
"This Miss Qin is actually a god of wealth, known as the Little God of Wealth. She has tens of thousands of employees, and so many of them rely on her for their livelihood! Now that she has married such a perfect husband, isn't she richer than the national treasury?"
Qin Huiyin dressed up carefully and went out. Looking at so many betrothal gifts, she walked towards the handsome man opposite her with an imposing manner.
She stopped beside him, tugged at his sleeve, and said in a low voice, "This is too high-profile."
"It's a once-in-a-lifetime event, so we can't keep it low-key." Song Ruize held her hand and said, "The more high-profile it is, the more people will talk about it. Even if the princess and the Jiang family want to make trouble, they will have to think twice."
Li Taohua echoed, "That's right. We can talk about the future later. Right now, your marriage is a big deal, and you can't let Yinyin down."
"Should we get engaged first and wait for Big Brother and Sister Luwu to come back before getting married?" Qin Huiyin said.
"Don't delay any longer, just do it. Your eldest brother won't blame you if he knows what happened in the capital."
After the betrothal gifts were given, the next step was to discuss the details of the marriage. Li Taohua asked Song Ruize to bring the official matchmaker in to discuss the wedding date and process.
Bang! Bang! Jiang Yunzhou threw the pillow on the bed, his eyes fierce: "Quacks, all quacks, how could I be disabled?"
Jiang Zhiyu looked at Jiang Yunzhou with annoyance in his eyes: "If you don't want to die, then be quiet. If the bleeding can't be stopped, your legs will have to be chopped off. Do you want to become a waste?"
"I want Song Ruize to die. I want him to die."
"He has now surrendered to the Crown Prince. Even the Princess can't deal with him. How can it be easy to kill him? You should quickly recover from your injuries and go see your mother in person. She carried you for ten months and gave birth to you. She can't possibly ignore you, right?"
"To you, I am just a tool to restrain her, right? But if she cared about my life or death, she would never let me become like this. Song Ruize tortured me and my legs were broken. How can such a waste become the prince and inherit the title of earl?"
Jiang Yunzhou looked at Jiang Zhiyu with suspicion: "You don't want that sickly boy to be the crown prince, do you?"
Jiang Zhiyu's eyes flashed.
This son is already a useless chess piece, so of course he wants to change the crown prince. However, now he has to appease him and use him for his own purposes.
"You are the prince that I have carefully nurtured and brought up. Dad loves your mother deeply. The position of prince can only be yours and cannot be given to anyone else."
Jiang Yunzhou's expression eased: "Those quack doctors said that even if my leg is cured, it will never recover to its original state, and I can only be a cripple."
"He's just an ordinary quack. Dad will ask Dr. Wei to treat you." Jiang Zhiyu said, "What you need to do now is to take good care of your injuries and wait for Dad to bring your mother back. Then our family of three will be reunited."
"She now has a new man and a daughter whom she treasures." Jiang Yunzhou sneered.
"I've thought about it carefully. That Qin Huiyin can't be your mother's daughter. We were deceived by your mother." Jiang Zhiyu said, "Your mother lost too much blood after giving birth to you. The doctor said it would be difficult for her to have children again. In addition, your mother was seriously injured when she left the Earl's Mansion. It took her a year or two to recuperate. She had no time to get pregnant and give birth to a daughter. That Qin Huiyin is not your sister."
"Really?" Jiang Yunzhou thought about Qin Huiyin's pretty face. "She didn't want me to touch her precious daughter, so she lied to me on purpose."
"She loves her daughter so much. If you can bring her into the house, you can do whatever you want with her," Jiang Zhiyu said seductively.
It doesn’t matter whether she is his biological daughter or not. She is not his daughter anyway. As long as she is not his daughter, he will not be the one suffering from the sibling conflict.
——Qingyi, since you are so disobedient, I will destroy what you care about most. If you dare to betray me, you must bear the consequences of betrayal.
Jiang Zhiyu's eyes were full of malice.
After Jiang Yunzhou heard Jiang Zhiyu's words, all he could think of was Qin Huiyin's graceful figure.
He now deeply regretted his hesitation. If he had not hesitated, the woman would have been his.
"Song Ruize came to propose marriage today." Jiang Zhiyu added fuel to the fire. "I guess their wedding date won't be set too late. You have to recover quickly, otherwise the beauty you get will be someone else's. If you snatch Song Ruize's woman, you will win over him and make him suffer for the rest of his life."
"Give me the medicine, I want to drink it. Also, invite Doctor Wei into the house immediately, I want treatment for my injuries." Jiang Yunzhou grabbed the quilt tightly and swore secretly.
The engagement between Qin and Song was a grand affair, and people in the capital were talking about it.
In the East City box, the prince and several officials listened to the conversation of the common people outside.
"Your Highness, Song Ruize has come to your side at this time, clearly intending to use you to deal with the princess. Your Highness, please do not be fooled by him."
The prince tapped the table lightly. "I know that. However, Song Ruize can be used. First, he is brave and resourceful, and is a good weapon. Second, he is very rich, and now his fiancée is even richer, which means I have an extra purse. Third, he has a weak spot. The princess wants to marry her daughter to him. If it were any other man, he would have expressed gratitude, but he refused the opportunity for a woman. Such a man values friendship and has a weak spot, which is easy to control."
"Your Highness is absolutely right. Apart from anything else, the list of the eldest princess in his hands is very useful. We have removed many of the eldest princess's secret agents."
"King Wei, why don't you speak?" asked the prince.
King Wei said with a smile, "Your Majesty is a man of unparalleled wisdom and strategy. I am a lazy person, so I have no say. I just thought that your Majesty wanted to win over Tang Yichen, but Tang Yichen was stubborn and refused to express his opinion. Now that Song Ruize has boarded your ship, and Tang Yichen has become his in-law, doesn't that mean Tang Yichen is also tied to our ship? Your Majesty, this deal is very cost-effective."
"My brother is very much in my heart." After the prince finished speaking, he waved to the other ministers, "You all should withdraw! The princess will definitely make some moves in the near future, so keep a close eye on her and don't let her find an opportunity to strike back. King Wei, stay and have a few drinks with me."
