"

Gu Wen said directly.

"I will not marry you."

Ming Wan almost couldn't control his expression, and kept thinking about what his mother told him when he left home.

Everything will be fine once we get married. Now we just have to endure it.

She raised her smiling face. Ming Wan's appearance was as her name suggested, bright and gentle. She was very famous in the capital. Even though there were some bad rumors about her, few people believed them.

It's because she pretends to be very good in front of others.

"Yes, I know. I know that General Gu likes Miss Tang, your current concubine."

Gu Wen's heart was pierced again, "She is my wife, and I will only marry her."

Ming Wan's mouth corners froze for a moment, but recovered quickly.

His expression remained unchanged.

"General Gu, you don't have to be so angry with me. I really don't want to get married this time. You must know that I am one year older than you. Girls of my age in the capital will run away."

"So General Gu should also know what I want in a husband. It's definitely not a man like you who has someone else in his heart. It's not that I'm arrogant. I'm the daughter of the Grand Tutor. The current emperor is kind and treats my father with great courtesy and respect."

"Even when I was a child, I could study in the palace with the princess. So, General Gu, the reason I came here today is to tell you that I am not relying on you. I also have my own pride. My future husband must be a man who only has me in his heart."

Ming Wan's words made Gu Wen think highly of him.

But I don’t have a good impression of her either.

He only likes Tang Yu.

But his attitude was no longer as vicious as before, and his eyes were like cold knives.

"Oh? Then what did Miss Ming want to say these days? What did you want to express after saying so much just now?"

Finally got to the point.

"The rumors outside are that I fell in love with you at first sight at the Zhongguogong polo match, and when I got home I begged my father to ask His Majesty to grant me a marriage. This is pure nonsense. When I got home I just praised your bravery at the polo match. Maybe because I am old and have become an old lady in the capital, my father thought I was attracted to you, so he rushed to ask for a marriage."

"It's because my father misses me. He's old and he's afraid he won't see me get married. That's why he's so anxious to see whoever I praise and think I like that person. I'm very sorry for the trouble this has caused you."

Gu Wen narrowed his eyes.

I didn't see any signs of lying tomorrow night.

But he trusted his own methods more and planned to find out whether what she said was true before he would believe it.

His expression remained calm, "So? Is this all you came here to say today?"

Ming Wan was so jealous that he gnashed his teeth, and all he said was defending that concubine.

Even though she said this, he still didn't let down his guard completely.

"No, I mean, I have integrity. Even if I'm not a gentleman, I won't steal someone else's love. Since you like Miss Tang, I won't come between you two. I went to Miss Tang that day because I wanted to persuade her not to be estranged from you because of me. I didn't expect you to misunderstand that I was going to cause trouble for her."

"I came here today to say that the wedding will be held as usual on the day of the wedding, but we can replace me with Miss Tang. By then, I am willing to leave the capital. By then, the matter will be settled, and my father will come forward to beg Your Majesty, saying that I ran away from the marriage and I didn't want to. At that time, Your Majesty will not pursue it too much."

"Isn't that the best of both worlds? You and Miss Tang can finally be together, and I can have the freedom I want. Maybe my destined lover is not in the capital, so I can leave here.
