The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Gu Yan'er's former maid Chunrou is still in a farm in the countryside, so there is no one to take care of her now. Lu Lingxi asked Liu Lu to take care of her and ask her to come back and tell him about the process of her brother's marriage proposal.

Originally, it would have been more appropriate to ask Chunhong to follow, but Chunhong's storytelling was very methodical, and not as vivid as Liulu's. Although Liulu seemed a bit reckless at ordinary times, she had never made mistakes in major matters, so in the end, Liulu was allowed to follow Gu Yan'er to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This time, Chunhong refuted for the first time: "When Liulu described it, it was not vivid at all. It was clearly exaggerated."

Lu Lingxi agreed with Chunhong's opinion, but she just liked to listen to the exaggerated version, how interesting. She felt that if Liu Lu read for a few more years, her storybooks would definitely sell well. After all, she had a talent for this.

After Lu Yi took Lu Yugang and Gu Yaner out in the morning, Lu Lingxi had been absent-minded, pacing back and forth with a burning sensation. She was extremely nervous, afraid that their talks would fail and she would lose such a good sister-in-law.

Originally, Lu Lingxi wanted to go with them, but Lu Yi said that etiquette was there, and it was unreasonable for an unmarried sister to propose marriage to her brother. Moreover, Lu Lingxi was also the future crown princess, and was afraid that the Prime Minister's Mansion would say that they used their status to coerce them into agreeing to the marriage.

Chunhong looked at Lu Lingxi pacing back and forth and said to her, "Miss, don't worry. The King of Qi already has a wife, so he won't let Miss Gu get married. Our Zhenguo Marquis's family background is pretty good, so this marriage should be successful."

Lu Lingxi's anxiety still did not ease much. After all, he had never met Prime Minister Gu and did not understand his thoughts. He only replied, "Yeah, I hope so."

Chunhong: "Miss, please sit down and wait. There is no point in being anxious now."

Lu Lingxi sat down as advised, but his feet were still shaking and he just couldn't calm down.

It was almost time for lunch when Lu Yi and his group finally returned to the Zhenguo Mansion. Seeing that his father and brother both looked unhappy, Lu Lingxi did not dare to ask them more questions. He took Liu Lu's hand and dragged her all the way back to Lingxi Garden. Then he closed the door impatiently and asked her what happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion today.

Lu Lingxi: "How is it? How is it? Has the marriage been decided?"

Liu Lu said with some embarrassment: "This... is hard to say. Prime Minister Gu has not made a clear statement, but his wife is very happy. But the final decision still has to be made by Prime Minister Gu."

Lu Lingxi: "Why is it hard to say? Tell me what they talked about today?"

Liu Lu: "Today we arrived at the Prime Minister's residence. After knocking on the door, the servant saw that it was our master and that he had brought his daughter back with him, so he quickly ran to the residence to report.

After the announcement, the first person to come out to greet them was the Prime Minister's wife. She pulled Miss Yan'er to look left and right, and her tears flowed. She kept saying, "It's good that you're back safely! It's good that you're back safely!"

Then, as if he had known that our master would go today, he was not surprised at all and said with a smile, "My Lord, are you here? Please come into the main hall and talk."

When they arrived at the main hall, Prime Minister Gu was already waiting there. He first exchanged polite greetings with the old master for a while, then looked at Miss Yan'er and said in a somewhat cold tone, "Are you well?"

Miss Yan'er stepped forward politely and saluted, "Father, I feel much better now."

Prime Minister Gu scolded softly, "You got well so quickly. At first, I thought you would not survive." After saying this, Prime Minister Gu glared at the Prime Minister's wife. She must have known that the Prime Minister's wife helped Miss Yan'er to go to the border to find Master Yugang.

Miss Yan'er didn't respond to this, and just introduced him to Prime Minister Gu: "Father, this is Yu Gang, the adopted son of Uncle Lu."

Young Master Yugang stepped forward and saluted Prime Minister Gu, "My nephew Lu Yugang greets Uncle Gu."

Prime Minister Gu simply said "hmm" and said nothing else.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. I felt that Prime Minister Gu knew the purpose of the master's visit today, but he just kept aloof and didn't take the initiative to talk.

There was no other way but for our master to step forward at this time. He said with a smile, "Hahaha, Old Gu, I wouldn't come to you for no reason. I'm looking for you today because of something important, a happy event!"

Prime Minister Gu turned around slowly, sat down at the top seat on the right, and said nonchalantly, "Oh? What's the big happy event?"

After Prime Minister Gu sat down, his wife also followed and sat next to him. When the master saw them sit down, he sat down in the upper seat on the left, while Miss Yan'er and Young Master Yugang stood in the middle.

After the master sat down, he said, "Old Gu, what do you think of my adopted son? Would you like to let him be your son-in-law?"

Prime Minister Gu only looked at Young Master Yu Gang straight in the eye at this moment, and looked him up and down before saying, "Nothing special, just average, too dark."

In fact, I have secretly observed that Prime Minister Gu has glanced at Young Master Yu Gang several times since we entered the door, and each time he just glanced at him casually. "Hehehe!"

Lu Lingxi retorted: "Brother, that's not black, that's wheat color, it's healthy. Brother, you have sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, how can you be ordinary?"

Liu Lu agreed, "Yes, I also think that Prime Minister Gu must have found other faults with Young Master Yu Gang to say that he is evil.

The master smiled and replied, "Yu Gang has been in the military camp for many years, exposed to the wind and sun, and looks a bit rougher than the young masters of the noble families in Kyoto. But this child is kind-hearted and caring. He will definitely not let your daughter suffer any injustice."

The master's words may have touched Prime Minister Gu's sore spot. He snorted coldly: "Yan'er is the Prime Minister's daughter. Of course, it is not his turn to let her suffer."

Everyone present could hear that Prime Minister Gu was not satisfied with this marriage. I felt that Miss Yan'er must have been with you for a long time in the past two days, and she must have become bolder. She directly refuted Prime Minister Gu's words: "But I just like him, even if I am wronged, I am willing."

After saying this, he took Young Master Yu Gang's hand in front of Prime Minister Gu and his wife.

When Prime Minister Gu saw this action, his hands were shaking with anger. He pointed at their clasped hands and said, "Why don't you let go? You have no shame."

The Prime Minister's wife hurried forward, hugged Miss Yan'er in her arms, separated them, and whispered, "Speak nicely and don't anger your father."

Seeing that they were no longer holding hands, Prime Minister Gu continued, "What do you like about him? What can he give you now?"

Young Master Yu Gang replied very solemnly: "Uncle Gu, I will treat Yan'er well all my life and never let her suffer any grievances. I will also work hard to build a career and give Yan'er a good material life."

Prime Minister Gu said disdainfully: "But what do you have now? Only a few promises. Who knows if you can do it?"

At this time, the master said, "Old Gu, you are wrong. How can Yu Gang have nothing? Although he is only my adopted son, I have always treated him as my own. Lingxi will get married soon, and the title of Marquis of Zhenguo will belong to Yu Gang. After Yan'er marries, she will be the Marquis of Zhenguo's wife."

Prime Minister Gu didn't even give the master face and directly said, "Madam of Zhenguo Marquis is just a title. How much property does your Zhenguo Marquisate have? Your entire Marquisate is not even as big as my main courtyard."

The old master got angry when he heard this, rolled up his sleeves, and started arguing with Prime Minister Gu, "My mansion is small because there are few people, it doesn't mean that I don't have a family business. You bought such a big yard just because you have many concubines and illegitimate daughters. Old Gu, you are really strong and energetic at your age, aren't you?"

Prime Minister Gu was so angry that he said, "How vulgar! You are so vulgar that you even like such a vulgar family. You have read so much that it has become a dog's stomach."

Then the master and Prime Minister Gu had a huge argument, neither of them listened to anyone's advice, and they exposed each other's secrets, and the scene was a mess."
