Chapter 240 Hard work

In Mother Han's opinion, an unfilial son simply has no brains.

"Miss Lin is engaged to the prince. There are so many good girls in the capital. Why is our family in such trouble?"

"Why is it troublesome? Miss Lin was ill at that time, and the General's Office took the initiative to cancel the engagement. Didn't the Emperor also express his affirmation to the General's Office?"

After Miss Lin broke off her engagement with the prince who was still King of Wei, Cheng Shu, the opposite-sex grandson of the old lady of the General's Palace, was raised from an ordinary guard to a hundred households, which shows the emperor's attitude towards the General's Palace.

Mother Han was unmoved: "You only think about the emperor and don't care about it. What about the prince?"

It would be fine if the prince is generous, but if he is petty, he may not be willing to see anyone who marries Miss Lin.

Although this is only a possibility, why does Shangshu Mansion take this risk?

"The prince is a generous man——"

Mother Han didn't want to hear it: "You don't have to say it. Anyway, I don't agree."

"Mother——" Han Baocheng's eyes were full of disappointment.

Mother Han looked away and refused to let her heart soften.

Even if Miss Lin is engaged to someone else, she can think about it, but that is the prince, and he will be the emperor in the future. If Miss Lin is dissatisfied with the Shangshu Mansion, what will the Shangshu Mansion do in the future?

"My son knows, mother, please have a good rest." After Han Baocheng finished speaking, he walked out silently.

Looking at her son's dejected back as he left, Mother Han sighed deeply.

Han Baocheng did not go back to his room, but left Shangshu Mansion and made an appointment with Yang Zhe for a drink.

Seeing him drinking one cup after another, Yang Zhe asked with a wine cup: "Brother Han, is there something on your mind?"

Han Baocheng put down his wine glass. The slight drunkenness did not make him unclear, but gave him courage.

Looking at Yang Zhe's handsome face, he said: "Brother Yang, I want to ask you for a favor."

"Brother Han, please speak." Yang Zhe said in a gentle tone.

Han Baocheng squeezed the wine glass placed on the table: "My family once asked to marry Miss Lin, you know that."

Yang Zhe nodded.

"Now that she is still waiting to be married, I...I still want to marry her."

Yang Zhe's eyes flashed slightly: "What does Brother Han need from me?"

"I would like to ask Brother Yang to check the prince's tone and see if he will mind." Han Baocheng said his plan with all his heart. "If the prince is not displeased, I would like to ask him to find a suitable Baoshan person for me to match this person." A marriage."

Han Baocheng put his last hope in the prince, not just impulsively.

When the prince was still the king of Wei, because Yang Zhe had a good personal relationship with the prince, as a good friend of Yang Zhe, he had many contacts with the prince, and he could see that the prince was a generous person.

There are risks in pursuing the desired results. Knowing the prince's character, Miss Lin is worthy of him giving it a try.

There is no risk in being timid, but he will miss the girl he likes. He doesn't want to regret why he didn't work hard in the first place when he gets older.

"I'll ask Brother Han." Yang Zhe agreed immediately.

Han Baocheng raised his glass: "Thank you, Brother Yang."

Yang Zhe smiled faintly: "It's just a matter of talking about this between us."

Soon Yang Zhe found an opportunity and mentioned the matter to the prince: "Brother Han is a real person. When the family thought that Miss Lin wanted to marry him, he was interested. Now he sees that Miss Lin is waiting to be married. I wanted to ask for marriage, but my family strongly opposed me."

Hearing Yang Zhe mention Lin Chan, the prince was stunned for a moment. Gu Xing

It had been a long time since anyone had mentioned Miss Lin. Thinking back on it now, his marriage to Miss Lin seemed so long ago.

"Is Miss Lin recovered?"

"I heard it's great."

"That's good." The prince smiled happily, "Miss Lin is a good girl. It would be a good thing if she could marry Bao Cheng."

"It's a pity that his family doesn't agree."

"Because you broke off the engagement with me?" The prince understood the crux of the matter without thinking too much, and sighed, "Speaking of which, I always feel bad about breaking off the engagement with Miss Lin when she was seriously ill. If I miss out on a good match again, then I will

I feel even more uneasy."

He had some regrets about breaking off the engagement with Miss Lin, but if Yang Zhe hadn't mentioned it today, he wouldn't have even paid attention to Miss Lin's condition in the past few months.

If he is unhappy, what is the difference between him and his elder brother?

Thinking of this, the prince had the idea of ​​bringing together Han Baocheng and Miss Lin.

If all those families hold the idea of ​​​​the Han family of Shangshufu, and no one dares to ask Miss Lin to marry her, wouldn't there always be people thinking about him.

Thinking about this situation makes people uncomfortable.

The prince quickly came up with an idea: "Let's do this. I'll ask the teacher to ask Han Shangshu what he wants. If the Han and Lin families are interested, let the teacher be the protector."

The teacher mentioned by the prince was originally Professor Shi Si, the head of the royal family, named Chen Fuli. The prince had always treated him as a teacher. It was undoubtedly very important for him to come forward as Baoshan in his capacity, and it fully demonstrated the prince's intention.

When Han Baocheng heard the news from Yang Zhe, he couldn't hold back his excitement: "The prince really said that?"

Yang Zhe took out the sleeve that was tightly pulled by him and said with a smile: "Would the prince still trick you into doing this?"

"Thank you, Brother Yang!" Han Baocheng bowed his head to the end.

"The prince is kind, I didn't do anything." Yang Zhe avoided the gift and reminded, "Brother Han had better vent his anger on your grandfather first."

"Yes, I'm going to tell my grandfather right away and treat Brother Yang to a nice meal some other time."

Han Baocheng said goodbye to Yang Zhe, hurriedly went to Taoranzhai to buy a roast chicken, and hurried back to Shangshu Mansion with it.

It happened to be a holiday, and it was rare for Han Shangshu to be at home at this time.

"Grandpa, my grandson has brought you some food to go with the wine." Han Baocheng put the roasted chicken wrapped in oil paper on the table and said with a smile.

He has a handsome appearance with big eyes and thick eyebrows, and his smile is very pleasing to the elders. Han Shangshu looked at his eldest grandson with a bright smile and couldn't help but curled his lips: "Tao Ranzhai's roast chicken? Baocheng still knows how to love his grandfather, come on,

Let’s have a couple of drinks with our grandparents.”

The grandfather and grandson ate roast chicken and drank wine, adding a plate of crispy peanuts.

Han Baocheng was almost satisfied and he smiled: "Grandpa, the prince wants to bring his grandson and Miss Lin together, what do you think?"

"Pfft -" Han Shangshu spit out a mouthful of wine and glared at his grandson, "What did you say?"

"The prince suddenly felt that his grandson and Miss Lin are a good match, and he wanted to bring us together——"

"I drank a few glasses of wine and talked drunkenly. Go back to the house quickly." Han Shangshu didn't believe a word of his words and shooed his grandson away like a fly.

The next day after going to the Yamen, Han Shangshu met Chen Fuli.

"Lord Chen, please invite me to drink?" Han Shangshu was surprised, but his face didn't show it at all, "That's a good idea. I'm worried about not having any drinking friends."

Although Chen Fuli's official position is not high, he has taught the prince, so he cannot offend him.

Wait, Prince?
