"What? Engagement? Me and Cheng Sinian?"

Jiang Wan was shocked by the news and couldn't recover for a long time.

Chen Yuezhi smiled and nodded: "Yes, you and Si Nian are similar in age and have grown up together. In addition, your Aunt Cheng treats you as her own daughter, so your father and I are very satisfied with this marriage."

Jiang Wan felt the veins on her forehead bulging, "Mom, when you are satisfied, haven't you ever thought of asking me for my opinion?"

Chen Yuezhi felt a little uneasy when she saw that she was not very happy, "But the marriage of children is not always the order of the parents or the words of the matchmaker? Besides, Si Nian's child grew up with you and knows everything about it..."

Jiang Wan's face darkened: "Mom, marriage is not something you say is suitable. After all, after we get married, I will live my life. I have the final say whether it is good or not. Cheng Sinian is very good, and Aunt Cheng is also very good.

Okay, but I never thought about getting married to Cheng Sinian!"

Chen Yuezhi knew that she had a good idea, so she cautiously advised: "Later, when the girl's family grows up, she will always marry someone. Although my mother has not asked your opinion in advance on this matter, the Cheng family is really between you and me.

Dad thinks this is the best family. If you marry there, you will definitely be happy."

It's not that they are strong parents and don't ask their daughter's opinion, but the Cheng family is really the family they feel most comfortable marrying their daughter to.

The Cheng family and his wife regarded Jiang Wan as if they were old friends. They also watched Si Nian's child grow up. He was polite and clean around him. The Cheng family's backyard was simple and clean, and the two families had a deep friendship. Such a family,

It’s really hard to find even with a lantern.

With their family's current status, their daughter will naturally marry into a house with the same family background. And the situation in those houses, which family is not a mess of troubles?

So Chen Yuezhi explained to Jiang Wan in a nice voice.

But Jiang Wan couldn't listen.

She had never considered getting married at all, and she couldn't accept the fact that her parents wanted to get her engaged without saying a word.

"Mom, either you go tell Aunt Cheng that I don't agree with this, or I can do it myself."

Chen Yuezhi had a headache: "Wanwan, this will offend your Aunt Cheng. She has been waiting for half a year..."

Jiang Wan stood up: "Since you don't want to go, then I'll go by myself. I won't spend the rest of my life in it just because I'm afraid of offending her."

Chen Yuezhi rushed to stop her: "My ancestor, can you calm down? What's wrong with Si Nian?"

"He is good at everything, but I have never thought about marrying him. In my heart, he is similar to my brothers. Asking me to marry my own brother, I can't do such a crazy thing!"

Jiang Wan held back her anger and said, "Besides, mother, don't forget, I have a marriage contract. A woman will not marry two husbands. If you do this, aren't you making me break my promise?"

Chen Yuezhi was stunned for a while before she remembered the engagement she was talking about. "Later, the engagement was originally a fake. The expedient measures that were thought of to stop the rumors could not be true at all."

Jiang Wandao: "But everyone in the small mountain village knows that I have an engagement with him. Whether it is a temporary arrangement or real, in short, Gu Chenzhou and I are an unmarried couple in name."

"If you want to make another engagement for me, then go to Prince Gu's Mansion and cancel the engagement beforehand. After all, this engagement was made clear by the Emperor."

Now it was Chen Yuezhi's turn to have a headache.

The so-called engagement back then was really just a temporary measure. She even thought that Gu Chenzhou had been dead long ago, so she simply forgot about it.

Who would have known that not only did Gu Chenzhou survive, but he also avenged the Gu family and made great achievements. Now he was also made a king and became a hot upstart in the capital.

However, before that, she had never had any headaches about the engagement.

After all, everyone made it clear back then that it was a stopgap measure.

But now Jiang Wan insists on holding on to this, so it's not a bit difficult.

To cancel the engagement? That would be equivalent to admitting that Jiang Wan and Gu Chenzhou were indeed engaged. But if they didn't cancel the engagement, Jiang Wan would just say that she was already engaged, and then discussing the engagement would be a breach of trust, which wouldn't work either.

Chen Yuezhi was so angry that she had a headache.

When she thought that Mrs. Cheng and Cheng Sinian were still waiting outside, Chen Yuezhi felt a little nervous.

But you can’t leave people alone forever.

So Chen Yuezhi had no choice but to go out and talk to Mrs. Cheng: "Good girl, do you still remember what happened with that kid Shen Zhou that night?"

Mrs. Cheng was stunned for a while before she remembered, "But that so-called engagement back then?"

Chen Yuezhi nodded helplessly: "The emperor knows about this."

Mrs. Cheng exclaimed: "But isn't that an expedient measure?"

Chen Yuezhi looked embarrassed: "Wanwan said that the emperor knew about this engagement. If he wanted to re-engage, he would have to formally go to Prince Gu to cancel the engagement. But...how to cancel? If you cancel, wouldn't it be equivalent to acknowledging the engagement?

?”

Mrs. Cheng also began to have difficulties.

Cheng Sinian was anxious: "Then just retreat, I don't care about this."

Chen Yuezhi and Mrs. Cheng looked at each other and knew that this matter was not that simple.

Gu Chenzhou is now a king with a different surname and a popular figure in front of the emperor. This marriage is not so easy to get out of.

Cheng Sinian said: "If it doesn't work out, I'll go find Brother Shen Zhou in person. What happened back then was originally a temporary solution, and he will definitely understand."

Mrs. Cheng said: "You should calm down for a while. This matter needs to be discussed carefully."

As she said that, she turned to discuss with Chen Yuezhi, "How about we let the men sit together and talk? They are sworn brothers. It would be better to talk face to face if they have anything to say."

Chen Yuezhi nodded: "Sure, let them talk."

So Jiang Pan and Mr. Cheng both accepted the tasks assigned by their wives, and prepared to run to Prince Gu's Mansion, drag Yan Li into the restaurant, and have a good drink first.

As a result, Jiang Pan hadn't even set off yet, and someone came from the palace.

It was the nun next to the Queen who asked Chen Yuezhi Palace to speak.

Chen Yuezhi had no choice but to change her clothes in a hurry and go into the palace.

After Wang Hongye became the queen, her whole person became very different. She wore the queen's phoenix robe and looked a little more majestic when she sat there.

Chen Yuezhi was about to salute according to the etiquette, and Queen Wang personally came down to support her, "Sister Yuezhi, are you still meeting me like this?"

Queen Wang pulled Chen Yuezhi to sit down and said with a smile: "I called you here in such a hurry today because I have something to discuss with you."

Chen Yuezhi felt a little strange. What matters did the Queen need to discuss with her?

Empress Wang smiled and said: "Sister Yuezhi, you also know that the prince has never married a wife. When he was in Jiangnan before, he thought that the emperor's great cause was not yet settled, and it might not be a good thing to marry him early, so he kept delaying it. Now he has

He has also been made a prince, so the matter of becoming a wife should naturally be put on the agenda."

Chen Yuezhi asked with a smile: "So you called me here today because you want me to help you look after you?"

Empress Wang smiled and said: "Yes and no. Sister Yuezhi, I won't beat around the bush with you anymore. Your emperor and I are the one who chooses to be the crown prince."
