Chapter 110 Take action
Ye Baichuan said slowly: "Indeed, as long as the emperor issues an order, for the sake of the alliance between Dazhen and our Dajing, it is actually nothing to cancel the engagement between Prince Yuan and the Anguo Mansion."

"There's no need to cancel the engagement." Chu Mingxuan said with a smile, "Then marry two princesses, one principal and one concubine, that's not surprising."

"Then should the princess of Dazhen be the principal wife or the concubine?" Ye Baitao snorted, "Should the girl from the Duke of Anguo's mansion be the concubine? That doesn't make sense!"

"It's indeed inappropriate." Ye Baichuan agreed.

"If Princess Dazhen is the principal wife, then the girl from the Duke of Anguo's Mansion being a concubine is actually nothing."

"The Anguo Mansion will not agree!"

"The only option is to cancel the engagement."

"It all depends on what Prince Yuan does. If it were you, I would just write a letter to the Emperor, asking him to cancel the engagement, set Miss Xiao free, and just marry Princess Dazhen." Song Tianhai said with a smile, "Princess Dazhen, it is said that all the princesses of Dazhen are stunning beauties. Prince Yuan, you are just a prince, and you are lucky to marry a princess!"

"Actually," Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile, "When you marry a wife, you should marry a virtuous woman, not a pretty one. Appearance is not that important."

"Hey!" Song Tianhai couldn't help but sneer.

If Chu Zhiyuan was engaged to a plain-looking girl, there would be nothing wrong with saying this, but Chu Zhiyuan was going to marry Xiao Ruoling, the most beautiful girl in Yujing!
Saying this again sounds extremely harsh, like a huge irony.

"Appearance is not that important! Haha..."

Everyone couldn't help but clap their hands and laugh.

"If Miss Xiao heard this, I wonder if she would be happy or unhappy!" Chu Mingxuan was extremely happy.

He likes crowded places the most. He feels at ease and in high spirits in such occasions.

"After hearing what fourth brother said, I know that he didn't marry me for my beauty. I'm sure you must be happy." Chu Zhiyao said with a smile.

He glanced at Song Tianhai.

Song Tianhai's face was extremely gloomy.

When he thought about Xiao Ruoling marrying Chu Zhiyuan, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken.

He has never been interested in women. He feels that women are just obstacles that distract him and consume his energy, which is a huge obstacle to the improvement of his cultivation.

So he is not tempted by the beauty around him.

But ever since he met Xiao Ruoling, just one glance at her in the crowd, he could no longer extricate himself from her. He felt that this was the other half given to him by God, the perfect woman destined to belong to him and to accompany him for the rest of his life.

He sent someone to propose marriage, but was rejected by Duke Anguo.

As soon as the seal on Prince Qing's Mansion was lifted, Duke Anguo could not wait to have people from Prince Qing's Mansion come to propose marriage, and he stuck to them eagerly.

This foolish and incompetent old man actually promised Xiao Ruoling to Chu Zhiyuan!

How am I worse than Chu Zhiyuan?

After the palace night banquet, she realized that there was indeed a gap between her and him, but Chu Zhiyuan was still not worthy of Xiao Ruoling.

If Xiao Ruoling married into Prince Qing's Mansion, she would probably only be able to be a concubine.

The most beautiful woman in Yujing, with such stunning beauty and natural fragrance, could have been the queen, but now she can only be a concubine of the crown prince.

It's such a great humiliation to her!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

But everyone was laughing and talking about other things, not paying much attention to his expression.

This is not the Duke Kangguo's Mansion, and not everyone is revolving around him.

Among all the people present, the prince, the crown prince, the young duke, if we leave out the marquis Guo Huaian, the young duke would be at the bottom of the list.

So no one cared much about his expression.

He felt more and more depressed.

When one is depressed, it is very easy to get drunk after drinking, and the wine that Chu Zhiyuan makes does not taste strong at first glance, but is actually very strong.

As a result, he soon became drunk.

After getting drunk, he suddenly became bolder.

He felt that there was no need to use Guo Huaian to disgust him. He could just criticize him face to face or even scold him.

And he deserves to be scolded for being such a bastard.

Thinking of this, he slammed the table and shouted, "Chu Zhiyuan!"

Chu Zhiyuan kept an eye on everyone, guiding the topic to constantly stimulate Song Tianhai, and deliberately slowing down the pace of everyone's drinking to prevent them from getting really drunk.

Song Tianhai was drinking alone and got drunk very quickly.

Seeing him like this, he didn't seem to care and said with a smile: "Young Master Kang, you are drunk!"

"I'm not drunk!" Song Tianhai waved his hand and shouted, "Chu! Zhi! Yuan!"

Chu Zhiyuan turned his head and looked at Ye Baitao and Ye Baichuan. Ye Baitao laughed and felt that Song Tianhai was very heroic.

Ye Baichuan reached out to pull Song Tianhai's sleeve, asking him to sit down and talk, but Song Tianhai suddenly shook his sleeve away and said in a deep voice: "Chu! Zhi! Yuan, who do you think you are--!"

Chu Zhiyuan was startled, put down his glass, and said with a smile: "As the saying goes, truth comes out after drinking. Song Tianhai, are you going to tell the truth?"

"That's right, I just want to tell the truth!" Song Tianhai shouted, his eyes burning, not looking like he was drunk at all.

Everyone looked at it in surprise and doubt.

Could it be that Song Tianhai was pretending to be drunk and was not actually drunk at all, and was using this as an excuse to scold Chu Zhiyuan?
Because of Xiao Ruoling?
Almost everyone knew that Song Tianhai was infatuated with Xiao Ruoling, and such news spread extremely quickly.

At this time, seeing Song Tianhai taking the excuse to vent his anger by scolding Chu Zhiyuan, everyone felt excited.

No matter how much trouble the Duke's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion make, nothing can come of it. It is normal to have some noise.

Anyway, the eight dukes' palaces each have their own camps, and their relationships with the princes and sons vary, some close and some distant, some hot and some cold.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Then I am all ears. What is the truth?"

"Chu Zhiyuan, you are not worthy of Miss Xiao at all!"

"Who's worthy then?"

"I——!" Song Tianhai pointed to his forehead and sneered, "I am the only one who understands Miss Xiao and is worthy of her!"

He glanced at Xiao Ruoyu and said in a deep voice: "Miss Xiao, you can live happily only if you marry me, not Chu Zhiyuan!"

Chu Zhiyuan asked: "What do you mean?"

"You married Miss Xiao only for the sake of your Prince Qing's Mansion, so as to take advantage of the power of the Duke An's Mansion. This is really ridiculous! Haha!"

After laughing a few times, he shook his head and said, "It is ridiculous that a dignified Prince's Mansion would use the Duke's Mansion to boost its prestige!"

Chu Zhiyuan's face darkened and he said slowly, "Song Tianhai, the Prince Qing's Mansion does not need the Duke's Mansion to boost its momentum."

"Hey, if Miss Xiao wasn't the daughter of the Duke of Anguo's mansion, would you still marry her?" Song Tianhai said proudly, "Didn't you say that you should marry a virtuous woman instead of a pretty one?!"

Chu Zhiyuan asked: "So, do you think Miss Xiao is not virtuous?"

"How hypocritical, Chu Zhiyuan!" Song Tianhai laughed several times: "It's people like you that I despise the most!"

Chu Zhiyuan sighed and said, "Since you are drunk, don't talk. Let's go back and have a good sleep."

"I'm not drunk!" Song Tianhai laughed, "I can't help but scold you for being so hypocritical."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded with a sullen face: "I am hypocritical, the Qing Palace is incompetent and has to rely on the Anguo Palace, I am not worthy of Miss Xiao, is there anything else?"

Everyone shut their mouths in astonishment. They didn't expect Song Tianhai to be so bold.

Chu Mingxuan's round face was full of anger.

Song Tianhai was too presumptuous to scold a prince so harshly. He didn't even take the royal family into consideration!
"Also, you are irresponsible!" Song Tianhai said, "You could have married Princess Dazhen, why did you refuse? ... And you pushed it to the 23rd Prince. If you can't marry her, does that mean the 23rd Prince can?"

Chu Zhiyuan asked: "Anything else?"

Song Tianhai pointed at his nose and said, "Also, you are too ugly and look disgusting. You are not worthy of Miss Xiao, haha..."

"Bang!" Song Tianhai flew out.

Chu Zhiyuan slowly retracted his fist, looked at Song Tianhai who was lying on the ground, unable to move, and shook his head, "I really can't stand it anymore."

He sighed, "I originally thought that our princes and young masters are family, and we should resolve our grievances if possible, and we shouldn't make a fuss over women, so I specially held this banquet. What a pity..."

He shook his head and said, "All my efforts have become a joke!"

Song Tianhai lay on the ground, staring at Chu Zhiyuan.

He felt as if he had fallen into a sea of ​​fire and a mountain of knives. Every part of his body ached, and he was in so much pain that he was going crazy, but he didn't have the strength to speak.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at Chu Mingxuan: "Eighteenth Uncle..."

Chu Mingxuan changed his usual smile and said coldly: "Song Tianhai is very drunk, it's time to sober him up!"

Chu Zhiyuan looked at Song Tianhai: "Are you sober now?"

Ye Baitao hurried forward to help him up: "Brother Song."

He helped up Song Tianhai, who was as limp as mud. With his support, Song Tianhai suddenly regained strength and stood up straight.

He gritted his teeth and stared at Chu Zhiyuan: "You..."

"Are you still drunk?" Chu Zhiyuan snorted.

Song Tianhai glared at him and sneered: "You are not worthy of Miss Xiao!"
