After the marriage, I married the most treacherous minister of the dynasty
Chapter 390 Engagement
The marriage was agreed upon by both parties before, and today we are just here to propose the marriage proposal.
Prime Minister Lan and Lan's father both knew what happened outside the mansion, and they looked at Qin Li with a kinder look.
They all felt that it was unfair for their granddaughter/daughter to marry Qin Li, but it was rare for such a man to be so sincere, and most importantly, Lan Xijing liked him herself.
They knew that Qin Li had no parents, no relatives at home, and was from a military background, so they did not expect him to bring any betrothal gifts.
However, what Qin Li took out next was surprising.
He not only brought a lot of gold and silver jewelry, rare treasures, but also two boxes of books and some valuable calligraphy and paintings.
Everyone in the Lan family loves reading, and their eyes lit up when they saw this.
Qin Li felt relieved when he saw this.
It seems that these things were brought to the right place.
"How come you have these?"
Lan Chaosheng couldn't help but say, he looked at Qin Li suspiciously?
Could it be that this person is pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger, and actually he has another identity?
Qin Li didn't know what his brother-in-law was thinking, so he said honestly:
"These silver coins and gold and silver jewelry are what I have saved over the years!"
Apart from salaries and rewards, a large part of the money is paid by them.
"I asked Governor Yan to help me find these calligraphy and books."
He knew he had to propose marriage at that time, but he was very worried.
He had no parents and no one to advise him. Although the military advisors under him said a lot, he felt that they were unreliable.
After thinking it over, he went to find Yan Mingjue. After all, Yan Mingjue was married, and his wife was such a person, so he must have experience.
Sure enough, the betrothal gift Yan Mingjue mentioned had to suit the Lan family's taste.
This really stumped him.
He didn't know what the Lan family liked, so in the end Yan Mingjue suggested giving them paintings, calligraphy and books.
This is even more of a blind spot for him. He's good at wielding swords and guns, but he's really not good at these things. Even though he's been learning to read and write for Lan Xijing, these things can't be achieved overnight.
So, in the end, this matter still fell on Yan Mingjue's head.
Yan Mingjue agreed to help him as a way of repaying him for protecting Su Qingwan.
After hearing what Qin Li said, the people from the Lan family looked at him with more and more satisfaction.
Without saying anything else, this thought alone is enough.
Therefore, what happened next was particularly pleasant. The marriage between the two families was scheduled for one month later, which was something Qin Li had fought for himself.
The Lan family originally wanted to keep their daughter until next year, but seeing how anxious he was, and considering that he was a military general who might go to war at any time.
So, I finally agreed.
The news spread quickly and all the families were shocked.
They never imagined that the Lan family would marry their only daughter to a warrior.
"Haha, so what if they are two beauties from the capital? In the end, they still end up marrying a fourth-rank military officer."
"In my opinion, Lan Xijing must have been married to me, the bandits... Otherwise, how could she marry a warrior?"
"That's over. Miss Lan is back safe and sound. You can't say that. But marrying a warrior will make her life difficult in the future."
Since ancient times, people have always valued culture over military affairs.
It would be good if there was someone to rely on at home, like Zheng Yuzhen, who would be able to inherit the title in the future.
If not, you can only endure the hardship.
Moreover, most aristocratic families look down upon military officers.
"The Lan family has really gone crazy. I guess Miss Lan won't be able to get married."
"Hahaha, can't get married? If Miss Lan wanted to, how many noble men would be lining up to get married?"
There were many different opinions, but no matter what, the marriage between the Lan and Qin families was settled.
