Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 507

"Master Mo, thank you for saving my life. I'm really sorry to have troubled you."

Mo Chonggui smiled and said, "Madam Wen, there's no need to be so polite. But if you really want to express your gratitude, how about we discuss the wedding date?"

Both Wen Shi and Shen Wei looked at Shen Lingjun.

Now, even if Shen Lingjun really does marry Mo Zhonggui, they can accept it.

It all depends on Shen Lingjun herself.

Shen Lingjun: "..."

Why are you looking at her?

......

Half an hour later, Shen Lingjun left the Shen residence with a buzzing sound in his head.

Mo Zhonggui ignored her stammering and set a wedding date with Shen Wei and Wen Shi. He even persuaded them to actually set the wedding date for December 16th of next year, which is the day after the mourning period ends.

Then he took his leave, quite satisfied. Shen Lingjun was left standing there, bewildered.

On the way back to the Yongning Marquis's residence, Shen Lingjun heard occasional discussions about the Crown Prince of Western Qi coming from the streets outside.

It seems the rumors of Huo Sizhen's homosexuality have indeed spread throughout the entire capital.

The people originally had a very good impression of Huo Sizhen, thinking he was an envoy who brought peace to the two countries, but now when they talk about him, they are full of contempt and disdain.

Of course, there were also those who didn't discriminate between the two, discussing it as a joke and creating countless outlandish versions of Huo Sizhen's relationships with various men, which they enjoyed discussing immensely. Because it was impossible to determine whether Huo Sizhen was on top or bottom, two factions emerged, arguing endlessly.

Rumors are flying everywhere, and everyone in the Western Qi delegation is too ashamed to appear in public. They've been hiding in the post station, waiting for Princess De'an to finish packing her dowry so they can quickly set off back to Western Qi.

At the Prince of Jin's residence, Princess De'an felt as if the sky had fallen!

The man she admired, whom she perceived as a virile and manly figure, turned out to be homosexual!

Huo Sizhen's image in Princess De'an's mind collapsed instantly!

She simply couldn't accept this fact!

How is she supposed to face Huo Sizhen in the future?

Princess De'an was just a naive sixteen-year-old girl who fell for Huo Sizhen purely out of momentary impulse and being blinded by love.

This infatuation came and went quickly. Once Huo Sizhen's image collapsed, Princess De'an felt disgusted whenever she thought about how he, the crown prince of a country, was secretly having affairs with all sorts of men!

Princess De'an cried and begged Prince Jin and his wife to cancel the marriage. She didn't want to travel all the way to Western Qi to marry a homosexual husband; she didn't know what kind of life she would have afterward!

Although she was their own daughter, the Prince of Jin and his wife rolled their eyes so hard they almost reached the sky when they heard Princess De'an's tearful pleas.

She's the one who's confused, acting like her head's been slammed in a door, willing to scheme to marry Huo Sizhen. Now the wedding procedures are all complete, and this marriage alliance is a done deal, and she wants to back out now?

What does she consider a marriage alliance between two countries? It's like buying a head of cabbage at the market—you can't just return it if you want!

There's no other way, I'll just have to marry him!

The Northern Yi court had naturally heard about Huo Sizhen's scandalous affairs, but they didn't say anything openly, since he wasn't their crown prince and it was none of their business.

Behind the scenes, they shared the same contempt as the common people. The Ministry of Rites packed up the dowry for Princess De'an and prepared to send her on her way with the Western Qi delegation. They all felt more and more that this princess was really out of her mind, eagerly jumping into a fire pit.

......

Two days before the Western Qi delegation was scheduled to depart.

One evening, Qin Shaoze finally waited for Qin Chuyao, who had just finished school, in the alley outside the Military Academy.
