Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 783

Yun Xiyue said happily, "Hmm, you like Miss Chu! Good, I will act as matchmaker for you."

Leng Yan thanked him and left.

Pei Fang froze on the spot.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Yun Xiyue asked, noticing her absent-minded appearance.

"I have something to attend to, so I will take my leave now."

With that, she got up and left in a hurry.

The others left too.

Yunxi Yue immediately summoned Madam Chu to the palace.

Miss Chu the Third seems to be the youngest daughter of the Chu family.

I heard that Leng Yan is proposing marriage.

The Chu family was quite surprised, but Leng Yan's status was a good match for the Chu family.

He was the commander of the Imperial Guards and had fought alongside the emperor on the battlefield. He was a brave and resourceful general who was skilled in battle.

The Leng family keeps a low profile in Beijing.

But their power is definitely no less than that of the Chu family.

"Madam Chu, what do you think of Leng Yan? Are you both willing to agree to this marriage?"

Madam Chu was of course willing. "I have no problem with it, but I'm worried about Madam Leng... You don't know, my daughter grew up in the countryside and is used to being wild."

"She lacks the etiquette of a lady from a prominent family in the capital and is incompatible with the capital in many ways."

They were originally brought back to serve in the palace.

In contrast, the daughters of the Chu family were all betrothed at a young age.

He didn't want to send another daughter to the palace.

To put it bluntly, this Miss Chu is actually a discarded child of the family.

Her mother was a concubine.

He was not Lady Chu's biological son.

She's not the legitimate daughter.

Yun Xiyue was not very willing, as Leng Yan was the emperor's confidant.

He is the eldest son of the Leng family, how could he marry a concubine's daughter?

"I will ask Lady Leng."

Madam Chu returned home happily.

If Yun Xiyue were to choose, she definitely wouldn't choose Miss Chu, but since Leng Yan personally requested her, we'd have to ask.

Instead of seeking out Madam Leng, he first inquired with Murong Yu.

“Leng Yan made his own choice, so let him be,” Murong Yu said.

"I'm worried that he just picked someone on a whim out of spite."

Yunxi Yue then told him the whole story.

Her original intention was to teach Pei Fang a lesson; she was clearly eyeing what she had while also wanting more.

She wanted to gain favor in the harem, but also wanted to hold onto Leng Yan.

She displayed that woman's vanity to the fullest extent.

She wanted Leng Yan to love her forever.

But they were unwilling to give him a clear answer.

"It shouldn't be. Leng Yan saved this Miss Chu a few days ago on her way home."

"Miss Chu is quite interesting. I sent people to investigate her, and she is very suitable for Ayan. She grew up in the countryside and has a simple mind."

So we've met before, no wonder I chose her.

"What's her name?" Yun Xiyue felt relieved.

"Chu Xinyi".

The name sounds nice too.

Yunxi Yue immediately issued an imperial edict.

This was the first time she had been betrothed to someone.

When Madam Leng received the imperial decree bestowing marriage upon her, she recovered from her illness that very day. "That's wonderful! My son is getting married."

"Madam, please take your time."

Madam Leng smiled and said, "I'm all better now, let's get started on the wedding."

"I want to go to the Chu family to propose marriage."

"Madam, this Miss Chu is said to have grown up in the countryside."
