Many ministers passing by heard this and gathered around, "If General Jiang is interested in discussing marriage, why not take a look at my son?"

Lord Xie's expression changed. "What are you doing?! This is a matter between me and General Jiang. Go get in line."

After saying that, he hurriedly pulled Jiang Ningwan away.

"Thank you, sir, I didn't..." Jiang Ningwan spoke again.

But he was interrupted by Lord Xie: "I know, I know everything! Marriage is a big deal, and I shouldn't discuss it with you personally, General Jiang. After all, it's embarrassing for a girl."

"Don't worry, you and I are the only ones who know about this matter, and I will never tell anyone else!"

"Ah Chuan is actually very frugal and never wastes money. After all, I am in this position. If he dares to squander money, it will inevitably cause trouble for me."

"That day Yunshan invited him to the Lantern Festival. He dressed up to attract General Jiang's attention, but it backfired unexpectedly and seemed to have left a bad impression on General Jiang."

"General Jiang, you can try to get to know him again. He has good character, likes music, and doesn't know martial arts. If he makes General Jiang unhappy in the future, General Jiang, feel free to attack him. He can't beat you!"

"From now on, if you say east, he will never dare to go west!"

After listening to Lord Xie's endless chatter, Jiang Ningwan felt a sinking feeling in her heart. This was truly a huge misunderstanding.

But how could Lord Xie know that Song Mingyu wanted to marry into the family?

Jiang Ningwan explained seriously, "Master Xie, you really misunderstood. I have no intention of discussing marriage."

"I don't know where this rumor came from, but there's no such thing as marrying into the wife's family! Your son is already of marriageable age, so it's better to find him a good match."

After hearing this, Mr. Xie felt a little regretful, but he could only sigh helplessly: "Okay."

After leaving the palace, he returned to the Prince of Chu's Mansion.

Suddenly, a yellow dog rushed towards her, wagging its tail excitedly. Jiang Ningwan squatted down to touch Lai Fu's head, but was licked by his saliva.

Li Chun angrily chased him to the front yard, "This stinky dog ​​is stealing food from the kitchen again!"

Lai Fu immediately hid behind Jiang Ningwan with his tail between his legs.

"What did you steal?"

"He stole a whole chicken!" Li Chun was furious. "This was originally intended for the young lady to make soup!"

Jiang Ningwan turned around and looked at Lai Fu, her tone becoming serious: "Huh? Why did you go to the kitchen to eat again? You eat five meals a day, aren't you full?"

Lai Fu looked at her guiltily, his eyes rolling around, not daring to say a word.

Li Chun stepped forward and said, "This stinky dog ​​goes to the kitchen every day to steal food, and only eats the good food. Miss, look at its physique, it's already this big in just over a month."

Jiang Ningwan took a look and found that it was true.

The size is several sizes larger than before.

After thinking for a while, she said, "It's probably because it's growing and needs to eat more. I'll give it more meat in the future so it can eat its fill and stop stealing."

"Okay, give it a chicken every day. If it still steals food, I will kill it!" Li Chun looked at Lai Fu threateningly and gestured twice with her hands.

Lai Fu suddenly whimpered in grievance.

Jiang Ningwan smiled and touched its head, "I was just trying to scare you."

Lai Fu then grinned, stuck out his tongue, and ran happily in the yard.

Then he followed Jiang Ningwan like a shadow.

Suddenly, a guard came to report: "Princess, the Song family wants to see you."

Before Jiang Ningwan could answer, she saw Lai Fu running towards the door excitedly.

She walked away quickly.

It was Song Mingyu outside the gate.

Lai Fu rushed over and stood up excitedly, clinging to Song Mingyu, wagging his tail happily.

Song Mingyu was startled, then recognized that it was Lai Fu.

"It's you, little guy. You've grown up so big. How come you grow so fast?" Song Mingyu didn't expect that the puppy had completely changed its appearance.

"It was probably originally a large dog. When you picked it up, it had been hungry for too long, so it looked skinny. Now it's been eating for over a month, and it's grown bigger."

Jiang Ningwan walked out slowly.

Song Mingyu's eyes lit up, "Following you will make Lai Fu lucky. He will never have to go hungry again."

He squatted down and started playing with Lai Fu.

Jiang Ningwan asked, "Mr. Song, is there anything you need to visit today?"

Song Mingyu finally came to his senses, stood up and glanced at the carriage parked at the door, "General Jiang, my sister is here too."

"I do have something to talk to you about today. Can we go out of the city together to relax?"

Jiang Ningwan glanced at the carriage, but Song Jiaoyun did not show up.

She thought that they must have come for marriage. Which girl in Kyoto City would dare to marry Qin Chengqian?

But this was the emperor's intention, and the Wenjing Marquis's Mansion did not dare to openly reject the marriage.

"Okay." Jiang Ningwan stepped forward.

Unexpectedly, Lai Fu also followed her forward. Jiang Ningwan stopped and said, "Lai Fu, go back."

Unexpectedly, Lai Fu played tricks and bit the hem of Song Mingyu's clothes and refused to let go.

Song Mingyu had no choice but to ask, "Why don't you take it with you?"

Jiang Ningwan had no choice but to ask someone to bring a rope and tie up Lai Fu to prevent him from running around.

Lai Fu was smart. As soon as he went out, he ran to the carriage and Jiang Ningwan couldn't stop him.

Fortunately, Song Jiaoyun in the carriage was not frightened by Lai Fu. Instead, she liked him very much. "Is this the puppy that Mingyu picked up before? It's so big now. General Jiang has raised it very well."

Jiang Ningwan smiled and said, "We can't let such a big palace starve."

The carriage moved slowly, and Song Mingyu rode a horse beside the carriage. Then they left the city together.

Song Jiaoyun said, "There's an ice lake outside this city. In the winter evenings when it's not snowing, if there's a sunset, it's especially beautiful. But I haven't seen one in a long time. Let's go and try our luck today."

Jiang Ningwan heard this and glanced at the sky. "It shouldn't snow today, maybe we can see it."

Song Jiaoyun sighed, "If I could see it again, I would have no regrets in my life."

Jiang Ningwan was stunned. "Miss Song is so young, how could she say such a thing?"

Song Jiaoyun smiled bitterly, "I think General Jiang must have heard about my marriage to the eldest prince. If I marry him, my life will be over."

"But as a daughter of an aristocratic family, while enjoying the luxury provided by the family, she must live for the family. Marriage is never her own decision, so I don't complain."

"I just want to leave as few regrets as possible in the little time I have left."

The two chatted and unknowingly arrived at the icy lake that Song Jiaoyun mentioned.

"General, sister, we're here." Song Mingyu shouted outside the carriage.

Lai Fu was the first to rush out of the carriage and ran happily in the snow that had not yet melted. Jiang Ningwan tried to catch up with him by grabbing the rope but couldn't, so she had to give up.

The lake has been frozen for a long time and the sun is shining on the ice.

The scenery here is indeed beautiful.

The three of them found a clean rock and sat down to enjoy the view.

It was at this time that Song Mingyu mentioned, "General Jiang, you know the eldest prince is not a good match. I don't want my sister to marry him, but our family has no other choice. If we disobey the emperor's order, the lives of our entire family may be at stake."

"So I want to ask General Jiang for help."
