MTL - After Reincarnating, an Evil Consort Only Wants to Torture Scums-Chapter 552 555: Proposal
Chapter 552 Chapter 555: Marriage Proposal
Ten days later, March eighteenth.
On the auspicious day calculated by Qin Tianjian, accompanied by the Minister of Rites, Chu Jinyan went to Lu's house in a mighty way with the dowry.
On the streets of the capital, the people looked at the long queue, and all of them were startled out of their eyes.
"Which prince came out of the palace? It seems that he is going to be hired. I haven't heard of any lady who has been given a marriage to the prince."
"Look at this battle, it is impossible to be a side concubine. Among the emperor's sons who have not married a side concubine, it is only the fifth prince, the seventh prince and the eighth prince."
"Shut up, you don't want to die. Where is the fifth prince, they are already common people." Someone reminded nervously.
The man quickly recovered and covered his mouth in panic.
"That's one of the seventh and eighth princes." The other answered.
"Such a grand appointment, it should be the eighth prince, I heard that he is very favored by the emperor."
"It makes sense, I don't know which lady is so lucky to be the eighth prince's concubine, and she is so red."
"Not necessarily, since the emperor loves the eighth prince, can he not marry him first? No news about this has been revealed."
"Guess what so many are doing, just follow the past and see."
The common people laughed and made noises to watch the excitement, but they only dared to stand far away and dare not cause chaos.
Lu Family.
Looking at the matchmaker and the man in front of him, Lu Youping's face was extremely dark. In the front yard, there were several dowry gifts, which made Lu Youping feel humiliated.
What the hell, you are the son of the prime minister, you are amazing, you used these boxes to propose marriage, and treated my Lu family as a broken household, so I sent beggars away.
Don't say that Liu Xiang is in the same situation as him. In this life, even if he dies, he will not be able to marry his daughter. Even if he has no hatred or resentment, if you humiliate me like this, I still have to be grateful to Dade for marrying his daughter.
But it's not easy to throw the cup to drive people away, so Lu Youping's liver hurts from anger.
The matchmaker seemed to be unable to see Lu Youping's ugly face, she shook her handkerchief and said with a smile: "Lord Lu, Mr. Liu Er is a handsome talent, and he is also the prime minister's son. He is the best match for the third lady in your family. There are not many such outstanding son-in-laws, and this is a good marriage that can't be found even with a lantern. The second son attaches great importance to the third lady, so he came to propose marriage in person."
Lu Youping stared at the matchmaker, gritted his teeth viciously.
Pay attention to it, why not find an official matchmaker instead of such a sloppy matchmaker?
When he is the Lu family, it is easy to bully him.
"Heh, Second Young Master Liu's kindness, I appreciate it, but the Queen Mother said that the little girl's marriage is up to her."
Liu Chengyu sat down at the side, smiled casually and said: "Master Lu, Ming people don't speak dark words. Even though the empress likes Lu Xiang, she is not her own. If you nod, the empress can't say anything."
"Your Majesty loves you so much, how can I go against your Majesty's will?" Lu Youping said with an ugly face.
Liu Chengyu glanced at Lu Youping with a half-smile and said, "Master Lu has repeatedly evaded, could it be that he has taken a fancy to this young master?"
That's right, but I just don't like it.
Lu Youping said silently in his heart.
Suddenly, a loud shout came from outside: "The imperial decree has arrived!"
In the main hall, Lu Youping and Liu Chengyu were both taken aback.
The moment he was stunned, there was a commotion.
Lu Youping came back to his senses, hurriedly got up and walked out.
As soon as he left the room, he saw the eighth prince who was the leader standing against the wind, dressed in a purple brocade robe, and a deep purple girdle inlaid with gemstones of various colors, shining gorgeously in the sun, his gestures and gestures were all naturally noble.
Beside him stood the Minister of Rites.
Behind the two of them was a long queue, but the boxes tied with red ribbons were so eye-catching that Lu Youping was stunned.
This...this...how does this posture seem to be hired.
As soon as the idea came up, Lu Youping was frightened, and quickly threw the thought out of his mind. It must have been stimulated by Liu Chengyu's proposal of marriage. Seeing this, he thought it was a betrothal gift.
Poor Lu Youping was kept from the truth by his niece, and he still doesn't know about her and the Eighth Prince.
"I have seen His Highness the Eighth Prince."
Liu Chengyu followed closely and walked out of the main hall. Looking at the scene in front of him, he frowned suddenly, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.
The Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is surnamed Yang, he looked at Lu Youping with a smile, his eyes were full of respect and flattery: "Master Lu, the emperor bestowed a marriage, please ask the third lady to come out and accept the order."
Boom—
Lu Youping felt as if his mind had been struck by a thunderbolt. After the sound, it went blank. His pair of widened eyes looked at the Minister of Rites like copper bells, and then he stared blankly at Chu Jinyan beside him. Thinking of something, he took a deep breath, and his whole body was like a sculpture, unable to recover for a while.
It was Mr. Du who recovered quickly after the shock, ignored his master, and went to the backyard.
Although the Minister of Rites did not say who the third lady gave the marriage to, anyone with a little brain can guess that it is the eighth prince.
Otherwise, why would the Eighth Prince, who is neither relative nor caring for them, come to the Lu family with the Minister of Rites?
And give a marriage...
Not everyone with a certain status can get a marriage from the emperor. What an honor it must be.
My God, the third lady is promising.
Lu Youping was dumbfounded in shock, and finally found his voice. He looked at the Minister of Rites tremblingly: "Yang...Master Yang, I don't know if the little girl betrothed...to betrothed..."
At the end, Lu Youping was unable to speak as if something was stuck in his throat.
Yang Shangshu glanced at the eighth prince, and then said with a smile: "Lord Lu is overjoyed, the emperor bestowed the marriage of the third young lady to the eighth prince."
"Ouch!"
Lu Youping staggered and sprained his ankle. Fortunately, Ji Ling, a servant at the side, quickly reached out to help him, so that Lu Youping didn't fall into embarrassment on the spot.
Behind him, there was a sound of gasping.
Lu Youping just remembered Liu Chengyu, and his face turned pale.
It's over, Liu Chengyu's betrothal gift for marriage proposal is still placed in the yard, the Eighth Prince might misunderstand.
Just thinking about it, I heard a voice as cold as snow above my head: "These are?"
Liu Chengyu looked at the cold black eyes of the man who turned all sentient beings upside down, and boundless fear arose in his heart.
Lu Youping turned his head, glared at Liu Chengyu angrily, then cupped his hands towards Chu Jinyan bitterly and said, "Your Highness, I don't know that the second young master of the Liu family suddenly brought a matchmaker to the door to propose a marriage. He refused, but Second Young Master Liu relied on Liu Xiang's power to bully this official, and this official was really furious."
When Liu Chengyu heard this, he choked with anger.
"Lord Lu, when did I bully you with my status?"
"I refused your marriage proposal, but you persisted. Isn't it bullying?" Lu Youping clenched his fists, expressing his anger.
Chu Jinyan looked at Liu Chengyu, and suddenly sneered: "The Liu family is so courageous, even daring to **** my prince's concubine by force. This is not paying attention to the father."
