My concubine is pregnant, I tear up the marriage certificate and marry another powerful official

The door was slowly opened, and Su He was wearing a thin outer dress. Her hair was scattered on her shoulders, as beautiful as splashed ink.

"Why did Lord Lu break into the boudoir at night?"

She looked around the yard and didn't see Pei Xia, so she started to wonder.

Lu Huaihe's cheeks were a little red, his eyes were earnest, and his lips moved slightly as if he wanted to say something.

In the quiet courtyard, the two of them stared at each other silently.

"I have something to say to you, and I don't care about the rules and morals at the moment."

Hearing this, Su He felt as if a drum suddenly sounded in his heart.

"It's too late. I need to rest."

She lowered her eyes and looked away, her palm covering the door handle, as if to close the door.

Lu Huaihe took half a step forward, intentionally blocking the door with one hand, and looked at Su He with gentle and passionate eyes.

The two were so close that they could even hear each other's breathing.

In this atmosphere, Su He felt her ears getting hot and soft. She asked anxiously, "What does Lord Lu want to say?"

"I want to marry you."

As soon as Su He's soft voice fell, Lu Huaihe blurted out.

These four decisive words were spoken without even a hint of hesitation or pause.

Su He's heart skipped a beat. She was stunned for several seconds. Her palms were slightly wet. She asked in a panic, "Is what you said true?"

Lu Huaihe raised three fingers, raised his chin slightly, and swore to the gods: "I am not lying."

"But I..."

Su He thought of her relationship with Lu Yanxiu, which ended in absurd failure and a blood feud.

And Lu Huaihe, who was once her nominal uncle, now spread rumors that he wanted to marry her.

Does he not care about the rumors about her? Then...what about the eldest princess?

Su He's heart was in turmoil, but her strange emotions were suppressed by her reason. She clasped her fingers tightly around the door frame, bit her lip and said politely, "Lord Lu, birds and fish cannot return home, and you and I are probably not the same kind of people. Please leave."

Suddenly, her wrist was tightly grasped by Lu Huaihe.

As his footsteps got closer, Su He retreated little by little until he was hidden in the dark without any light.

"Ah He, don't reject me."

Su He's eyelashes trembled, and he closed his eyes and refused to answer.

He was noble since birth, and rose rapidly to the top. He was graceful and elegant, like a crane standing on the clouds. How could he dirty his wings for the mortal world?

Su He never thought about remarrying, and she would not ask for whom to marry. It made no difference to her whether she married a peasant or a prince.

But in front of Lu Huaihe, there always seemed to be something different.

A gentle kiss fell on the back of Su He's hand, like a fish playing in the water, just a light peck and stopping.

Su He suddenly opened her eyes and saw Lu Huaihe's outline in the dim light, her face flushed with embarrassment.

"Master Lu!"

"In the 42nd year of Yuanqi, do you still remember me?"

Su He was stunned, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes.

At the Lantern Festival that year, by the moat, Lu Huaihe saved her, and that was also the first time she met Lu Yanxiu.

Su He didn't want to recall and remained silent. Lu Huaihe, who was standing beside her, reached out and touched her cheek, pinched it gently, and said in a casual tone: "You should have been my wife a long time ago."

Su He raised her eyes, her pupils slightly dilated in shock.

He means……

"I will go to the Su Mansion early tomorrow morning."

"doing what?"

"Propose marriage."

The last two words lingered in Su He's ears like a ditty. She didn't come back to her senses until Lu Huaihe had left for a long time.

Propose marriage? He came in person?

Su He didn't dare to fantasize about it, let alone think of it, but Lu Huaihe's voice and appearance lingered in her mind for a long time, which was really annoying.

"Miss."

Pei Xia entered the room with a lamp in hand. Seeing Su He sitting beside the bed in a daze, she couldn't help but think of the way Lord Lu expressed his feelings. After a few seconds of hesitation, she said, "Lord Lu is really good. Miss, I heard that the imperial doctors in the palace can cure anything. When the time comes, we should ask them to treat Lord Lu."

After Su He understood, her cheeks flushed and she pretended to scold him, "Don't mention it again in the future."

"Yes."

The spring is fading, and the sun is shining brightly.

The Su Mansion was filled with noise and bustle.

Through the carved window, Su Yun and Su Lian stood on the inside and looked into the hall. Lu Huaihe, dressed in casual clothes, was elegant and peerless. He talked with Su Ronghai with a unique temperament.

"I heard from the housekeeper that Lord Lu is here to propose marriage and has brought a lot of gifts. I think the jade ruyi alone is worth a fortune."

"There are only two young ladies of suitable age in the mansion, and I don't know who they are..."

A maid walked by in the corridor carrying freshly brewed tea. Su Yun and Su Lian listened attentively, and couldn't help but have some daydreams in their hearts.

The two sisters have lived in the mansion for a long time and never go out, and have rarely met or interacted with Lord Lu. He came in person today, and no one knows which lady he is proposing to.

"Third sister is one of the most beautiful girls in the capital. Many young men have come to propose marriage to her before. I'm sure that Lord Lu must have seen your beauty and was afraid that someone else would snatch her away first, so he came here in a hurry!"

Su Lian said this with her hands covering her lips and smiling, as if she was taking this matter seriously.

Su Yun's cheeks flushed, and she whispered, "Nonsense."

But she felt sweet in her heart and was 70% sure of it.

Since Lu Huaihe came to propose marriage, he must have set his sights on the daughter of the Su family. Su He had been married before and lived alone outside the mansion, while Su Lian was slightly inferior in appearance and not as good-looking as her two elder sisters.

After thinking about it, Su Yun seems to be the most suitable one.

I heard that Lord Lu's mother is Princess Zhaoyang. If he could marry her, she would be related to the royal family.

Su Yun never thought that she would be related to the royal family in this life.

"Don't be embarrassed, third sister. Apart from you, who else in our house is qualified?" Su Lian knew that she was not as good-looking as others, and she did not expect to marry a powerful family. Although she was polite, it was just talk. Seeing the shyness hidden in Su Yun's eyes, she couldn't help but find it a little ridiculous.

As both are concubines' daughters, who is more qualified than who?

In the hall.

Su Ronghai was on pins and needles, rubbing his hands nervously, not daring to look directly at Lu Huaihe. Wang, who was sitting next to him, also clenched her silk handkerchief, with a bit of panic in her eyes, and even more disbelief.

"Who did you just say you wanted to marry?"

Lu Huaihe replied in a gentle voice: "Ahe."

Hearing Su He's name again, Su Ronghai and Wang's heart once again lifted. He asked with a trembling voice: "The eldest princess... also needs permission?"

"The betrothal gift list was drawn up by my mother herself."

Does that mean she has no objection?

Su Ronghai was a little worried. Su He was a married woman, and he was already shocked that Lu Huaihe was willing to propose to her. Even the princess, his mother-in-law, had no objection?

Wang secretly pinched Su Ronghai and asked with a smile on her face, "Have you asked Ah He first?"

Lu Huaihe curled his lips: "I've seen him last night."

Yesterday, yesterday, yesterday...last night?

Wang took a deep breath. Could it be that the two of them had already...
