On the night of the broken engagement, the paranoid prince came to me crying and asking for my statu

"What you said is mean, and it's nonsense. You always thought that you used the Ruyi Gu to make Miss Su promise to you for life, which was a deception to Miss Su. But Master, you should also think about it. You have been using Miss Su's cotton balls to suppress your feelings. Isn't that also a deception to yourself?"

"I don't understand love, but I've heard a lot of stories. How many marriages are the result of a mistake at the beginning? It may be a mistake to let Miss Su be impulsive towards you, but once feelings are aroused, these things are originally undefined. Since Miss Su's impulse is a mistake, why can't the master let Miss Su make mistakes when she is sober?"

"If you do it wrong enough times, it will naturally become right."

"It's a mistake to make Miss Su impulsive once, but it's not a mistake to let Miss Su be impulsive towards you all the time, that's love."

"Master, don't you want to take this opportunity to win the beauty? And why do you want to push Miss Su away? Since you like Miss Su, can't you use your sincerity to impress her?"

"How you make a lifelong promise is not important. What's important is that you and Miss Su can stay together for the rest of your life. I think Miss Su must have her own considerations for being so impulsive. Maybe she didn't plan to get married in the first place, and just happened to go along with it when she saw that the master was in trouble. In this case, why don't you take advantage of this and make Miss Su pay more attention to you?"

He said a lot in one breath.

I felt happy in my heart, but I also felt guilty after I said it.

Yi Zhi secretly glanced at his master out of the corner of his eye, and when he met his master's strange gaze, he felt even more guilty.

"But did your subordinate say anything offensive?"

Rong Xian's eyes slowly became inquiring, "Yi Zhi, you...are you impersonating Yi Fan?"

"The master's jokes are not funny at all."

Yi Zhi's face was full of black lines, and the disgust in his eyes that said "What the hell is Yi Fan" could hardly be concealed.

Rong Xian had no intention of talking to anyone anymore.

He casually dismissed Yi Zhi, turned back to the window, and looked up at the moon in the sky which was missing a piece.

My thoughts went back to the heart-wrenching rainy night when I received the bad news in my previous life...

He slowly clenched his hands, and the look in his eyes gradually became firm - perhaps Yi Zhi was right, the process is not important, the result is the most important.

In their previous life, they had loved each other. In this life, their ending should be perfect and must be perfect.

...

Su Sui'an tossed and turned all night.

Ever since she impulsively said that Rong Xian should marry into the Su family and settle him in Sanfan Hutong, whenever Su Sui'an closed her eyes, Rong Xian's harmless yet charming face would appear in her mind, with red eyes looking at her...

That broken and weak appearance really makes people want to ravage it...

"Miss, are you awake?"

Liu'er's cautious voice came from outside the door.

Su Sui'an came back to his senses with panda eyes.

I am ashamed of my own dirty thoughts.

Obviously...

Forget it. Since I have said such nonsense about asking him to marry into my family's family, if I go back on my word, and Rong Xian tries to commit suicide again, it will only cause more trouble.

Thinking of this, Su Sui'an sat up and shouted to the door, "I'm already up, come in."

Mei'er and Liu'er quickly came into the house to help Su Sui'an wash and groom.

Half an hour later, Su Sui'an had already arrived at Ji Lanshuang's place and had breakfast with her.

"Madame Deng said early in the morning that you always accompanied me for breakfast today, so I guessed that something must be wrong with you. We, mother and daughter, went through such a big event as leaving the Changping Marquis' Mansion on the day of the thank-you banquet. Could it be that in your eyes, you still don't trust your mother?"

Ji Lanshuang's conditioning these days is obviously much better than before.

Su Sui'an didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point. "It's not a big deal, but I wanted to tell you in advance so that you can be mentally prepared."

Hearing this, Ji Lanshuang paused with the teacup in her hand, and put it back without even having time to drink the tea.

"We still need to be mentally prepared. An An's matter is probably not a small matter."

She looked at Su Sui'an with a smile.

The latter nodded and said, "My mother wanted me to find a son-in-law, and I found one."

"who is it?"

Su Sui'an lowered his head and whispered, "The Ninth Prince is fond of men and wants to take Rong Xian into the mansion as his concubine. My daughter has received his help before, so I asked him what he thought. He is willing to enter the mansion as a son-in-law."

"No." The smile on Ji Lanshuang's face suddenly disappeared.

"An An, if you were to find another honest man, your mother would never even blink an eye, but Rong Xian..."

Meeting Su Sui'an's determined eyes, Ji Lanshuang felt a throbbing pain in his head.

"Have you forgotten what I told you before? Sister Rong took out a stack of deeds to the Dingbei Palace. I always feel that Rong Xian and his sister are not simple people..."

"The title deed was given to Mrs. Rong by the Ninth Prince. Rong Xian was almost defiled by the Ninth Prince last night because of this incident."

When Su Sui'an said this, Ji Lanshuang took a breath of cold air, "It has come to this point? How dare Xiaoxiao?"

"No, An An, you can recruit anyone except Rong Xian. Since even the Dingbei King has gotten involved in this matter, who knows what kind of trouble they will bring to you?"

"Moreover, the Ninth Prince has already been so absurd. How can you be sure that after you marry Rong Xian into the family, the Ninth Prince will not covet him again?"

Su Sui'an pondered for a moment and told his plan, "Regarding Rong Xian's matter, I plan to ask the prince of Dingbei for help. The prince is very talented and is not interested in the secrets of the backyard. If I can give enough chips, I believe the prince will be happy to help."

When Su Sui'an said this, she was actually unsure, but in order not to make Ji Lanshuang worry, she deliberately lowered her tone.

From establishing her authority in Beiyuan, to decisively moving out of the Marquis of Changping's Mansion, to the current rumors flying around Luojing City about her and the Duke Gu's Mansion, Ji Lanshuang knew that her daughter would not change her mind once she made up her mind.

Seeing that she was confident, she stopped trying to persuade her, "An An has grown up and knows how to plan. But marriage is a matter of a lifetime, so mother still hopes that you can open your eyes."

Admittedly, she did like this young man Rong Xian before.

However, no matter how good a boy is, once he is favored by the rich and powerful, it will be a disaster for people like them who have little power...
