The first thousand five hundred and ninety-six chapters refused to marry
It's night, the bright moon hangs high, and the bright moonlight shines on the beautiful garden.
In the pavilion, by the Mirror Lake, Gu Chen and Lord Choujian were sitting face to face, with green wine boiling on the stone table in front of them.
"Senior invited me here late at night, why?" Gu Chen sat upright and asked politely.
Although he and Lord Chou Jian are both Dao Lords, Lord Chou Jian is far older than him. In addition, due to his friendship with Chu Meixin, out of politeness, he refers to him as a senior.
Yesterday, Gu Chen had a pleasant chat with Mr. Zhuo Jian. Unexpectedly, he invited him to the meeting again tonight, and this time only the two of them were present.
Tomorrow is the birthday banquet, and almost all the Dao Lords from all parties have arrived. Lord Clumsy Sword must have a lot to do, and Gu Chen is a little confused about his intentions.
Lord Clumsy Sword looked at Gu Chen's heroic face like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law. The more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became, and his smile couldn't help but show.
When he first learned the name Gu Chen, he had a lot of worries in his heart.
Because after his investigation, he found that the other party was just a defected general from Xingjun. How could he be worthy of his precious granddaughter who was both talented and beautiful?
Later, as shocking news about Gu Chen came out one after another, Lord Clumsy Sword began to pay attention to him, and secretly felt that this was a talent that could be made.
But even at that time, he never thought about marrying his granddaughter to the other party. After all, the other party had too many enemies.
Later, the ending of Fangwai World was beyond everyone's expectations. Lord Chou Jian realized deeply that this son was definitely worthy of his granddaughter, and he was the undoubted number one genius among his peers!
So at the Baijun meeting, he took the initiative to propose using his birthday banquet as an opportunity to help Gu Chen ease the relationship with the Taoist Lord of Baijun.
He had the idea of recruiting him as his grandson-in-law, but after all, he had never met him in person, so he hid the idea for now.
Until he met with Gu Chen yesterday and saw that he was impressive in appearance, extraordinary in conversation, and what was even more valuable was that he was such a genius without any arrogance, he suddenly became convinced.
This man has a bright future, and it will definitely not be a loss for his granddaughter to marry him!
After consulting his granddaughter's opinion, Master Zhuo Jian couldn't wait to hold the banquet tonight, hoping to confirm the relationship between the two families tonight.
As long as Gu Chen is willing to marry his granddaughter, he has made up his mind that he will stand firmly on his side at the next Hundred Counties Meeting, and it doesn't even matter if he is the leader.
It is actually not uncommon for counties to form alliances with each other. He wanted to announce the engagement between the two parties tomorrow, so that both the Ba County and the Sword County would be even more powerful.
Zhuo Jianjun was calculating in his mind and never thought about whether Gu Chen would refuse. In his opinion, this was a matter of mutual benefit, not to mention that his granddaughter was good in every aspect.
"Gu Xiaoyou, I don't like to beat around the bush, so I'll tell you directly. I intend to marry my granddaughter Mei Xin to you. Do you agree?"
Lord Clumsy Sword said kindly, and then looked forward to seeing Gu Chen's surprised expression.
"Miss Chu?"
Gu Chen had no idea that Zhuo Jianjun invited him to meet alone for such a thing. He was quite stunned for a moment and asked, "Does Miss Chu know about this?"
In his opinion, this should be the result of Lord Clumsy Sword messing up the rules. As long as Chu Meixin doesn't agree, everything will be easy to talk about.
"Meixin has agreed, I'm just waiting for your nod."
Zhuo Jianjun smiled and replied, because Gu Chen knew how to respect the woman's opinion, and he felt even more satisfied.
Gu Chen fell silent for a moment.
Chu Meixin actually agreed to the marriage, but she didn't expect...
Looking at Lord Clumsy Sword's expectant face, Gu Chen realized that if he refused the marriage, it would probably be a big humiliation to the Chu family, and Lord Clumsy Sword himself would not be able to step down.
Given the strength of Jian County, if the two parties form a marriage alliance, it will be of great benefit to Ba County.
Chu Meixin is young, beautiful and talented, and she is even more worthy of him.
However, just because of these benefits that he can directly see, does he have to agree to the marriage in order not to offend others?
The figure of Lan Chu appeared in Gu Chen's mind, and he immediately had the answer in his heart, without any wavering!
"There is something that senior may not know. Gu already has a family."
Gu Chen spoke, even though he felt that it was impossible for Master Zhuo Jian not to be able to investigate this matter.
After hearing this, Mr. Zhuo Jian shook his head indifferently.
"As far as I know, the window of chaos in the ninth realm of Xing County has long since collapsed, and Gu Xiaoyou is already alone. People always have to look forward, and Gu Xiaoyou should let go of the past and start over."
He said it cryptically, but what he meant was that Gu Chen would never see his former wife again in his lifetime, so why bother with this?
"For me, my wife is not the past, but the present and the future."
Gu Chen looked at Lord Clumsy Sword and answered calmly.
Although he personally destroyed the Chaos Path Window of the Ninth Realm, Gu Chen still firmly hoped in his heart that one day he would be able to go home.
Gu Chen's tone was very firm. Lord Chou Jian heard what he meant and his smile froze for a moment.
He did not expect that Gu Chen would give up the huge benefits that could be brought by marrying Jianjun for the sake of someone he would most likely never see again.
As the dignified head of a county, such a choice is too naive and childish!
"If Gu Xiaoyou can't let go of his past wife, if he can meet her in the future, it wouldn't be a bad idea to make her his concubine. I believe Mei Xin won't care about it."
Lord Clumsy Sword refused to give up, took a step back in his mind, and suggested.
He didn't want to wrong his granddaughter, but she obviously had a deep affection for the person in front of her, so there was nothing he could do.
Gu Chen was thinking that his wife in the past could be regarded as someone who valued love and justice, so it would be okay to just give in.
What's more, the possibility of him seeing his past wife is almost zero!
Lord Clumsy Sword gave in, thinking that Gu Chen should accept it, but unexpectedly he shook his head.
"Gu's wife was married to a man from the Ming Dynasty. I have endured a lot of hardships in the past few years, and it is impossible for Gu to let her wrong him."
Leaving Lan Chu behind to raise her children alone in Canghuang Ancient Star, Gu Chen has always been filled with guilt for her.
Lanchu was already pregnant when she left Canghuang Ancient Star, but in order to prevent him from having any worries, she endured everything on her own. Gu Chen felt not only guilt but also love for her.
Gu Chen has a heart full of heaven and earth, and is determined to do things that ordinary people cannot do on the way to spiritual cultivation. However, when it comes to matters between men and women, his heart is very small. In this life, he can only accommodate one person...
"If you don't want to wrong her, why don't you want to wrong my granddaughter? Gu Xiaoyou, do you want me, the daughter of the Chu family, to be your concubine?"
Lord Choujian's face turned completely cold when he heard Gu Chen's words, and he could hardly restrain his anger.
"Miss Chu is very excellent, and Gu doesn't want to delay her." Gu Chen clearly refused.
Bang!
Lord Clumsy Sword couldn't help but slapped the table heavily and said, "Stupid! Unbelievably stupid!"
