Chapter 153 The Little Maid in the Prime Minister's Mansion 17
She had just bought the shop and right after that this Zhongsheng Hall was opened. It is hard not to connect the two of them together.
And I heard that after the miracle doctor entered the city, the first person he went to see was Miss Chu. The two of them looked somewhat similar, so they might be related.
The wife of the Minister of the Central Secretariat saw through this and wanted to marry Chu Yuan home, so that the genius doctor could not just watch her husband being a fool.
When my son recovers from his illness, he can marry a few beautiful concubines. Wouldn’t that be a happy life?
Of course, they didn't want to do anything to Chu Yuan. After all, she was beautiful and had a close connection with the miracle doctor. It would be a good thing for their son to marry her as his wife. In the future, they could just provide her with good food and drink in the backyard.
Their wishful thinking was heard not only by Chu Yuan, but also by Huo Yucheng who was trapped in the princess's mansion.
So with the help of several capable guards around him, he successfully crawled out of the dog hole and rode a fast horse to Chu Yuan's mansion.
Chu Yuan listened to what the matchmaker said, but before he could reply, he saw Huo Yucheng rushing in with a horsewhip.
"Let me see who dares to covet my Huo Yucheng's woman here!"
The whip was swung to the side, making a sound of breaking air, which scared Wang the matchmaker so much that she fell off the stool: "I was blind and didn't know that Miss Chu was your woman. I am sorry for the offense. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"Go away, don't let me see you again."
Matchmaker Wang crawled out of the Chu Mansion. It was no wonder that Prince Jingyuan had been fighting outside for many years. His aura was really scary.
This Miss Chu is really capable. She can be favored by both the son of the Minister of the Central Secretariat and Prince Jingyuan. She must quickly turn down this task to avoid getting into trouble.
After brushing off the dust on her body, Matchmaker Wang went to the residence of the Minister of the Central Secretariat to report.
Meanwhile, the Chu Mansion was experiencing another storm.
"Your Majesty is so majestic."
Huo Yucheng was somewhat at a loss: "I heard from the servants early this morning that a matchmaker came to your house to propose marriage. I was afraid that you didn't know how to refuse, so I came here to help you out. I acted a little rashly, so please don't be angry, Miss Chu."
"This is my business, and has nothing to do with Your Highness. Besides, how would Your Highness know that I don't want to get married? If he and I are in love, Your Highness's actions would ruin a good marriage."
Huo Yucheng couldn't believe his ears: "Chu Yuan! What are you talking about? You are in love with that stupid son of the Zhongshu Ling family?"
Chu Yuan also felt that something was wrong, so he changed his tone: "It's not that we are in love, but this is indeed a good marriage, isn't it? I will be his legal wife, and I will have endless wealth and glory in the future."
Huo Yucheng saw through her stubbornness and said, "Yuanyuan, stop saying these things to make me angry. If you really want these things, I can give them to you. At least I'm not a fool. I'm a thousand times better than him."
"Why would you give it to me? Is it because you have been locked up in your room by Princess Jingxuan and not allowed to go out for a while?"
It turns out she knows everything.
Huo Yucheng hadn't slept well the whole night since he heard their conversation in the teahouse that day.
From the education he received since he was a child, a man should marry three wives and four concubines in the future, and he shoulders the responsibility of continuing the Huo family's heirs. No one has ever told him such words as "one person for life".
Even though his father and mother had such a good relationship, there were still many concubines in the house. They just didn't dare to come in front of his mother to get in the way.
So Chu Yuan’s words that day had a certain impact on him.
But if he had to give up his beloved woman for this, he would never be willing to do so.
It can be said that love comes from nowhere and grows deeper and deeper.
I don’t know when it started, but Chu Yuan has occupied a large place in his heart.
Every time he saw her smile, his gaze would be drawn to her involuntarily. When his eyes met her cunning and lively eyes, he felt like a deer running around in his heart.
If he saw her being embarrassed, he would feel so distressed that he would want to rush forward and protect her behind him.
When she showed her strengths in front of the crowd, Huo Yucheng was filled with pride. He felt that she was radiating a dazzling light that could not be ignored.
If he could be alone with her, he would feel that time seemed to pass very quickly, as if they were about to part before they could say a few words.
It seems that being with her all my life would be a very wonderful thing.
After figuring it out, he fell asleep with a smile on his face. Even in his dreams, he could only see the figure of that woman.
The next morning, Huo Yucheng returned to the princess's mansion, ready to ask his mother to propose marriage on his behalf. He wanted to marry his beloved woman in a grand ceremony.
Originally, Princess Jingxuan was very happy when she learned that her son finally had someone he liked. They didn't mind even though she was just a commoner woman.
But when Huo Yucheng proposed to marry only her in his life, Princess Jingxuan got very angry.
She injured her body when she gave birth to this son and has not had any children in recent years.
Therefore, her biggest wish was to see her son have many children and grandchildren, so she was always busy arranging for him to meet young ladies from various families.
But this rebellious son actually said that he would only marry one woman in the future. I really don’t know what kind of magic potion this woman has fed his son.
In a rage, he sent people to lock Huo Yucheng in a room and release him when he changed his mind.
Huo Yucheng thought that he would let his mother calm down for a few days and then have a good talk with her when she calmed down. He didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen.
After learning that someone had come to propose marriage, he could not sit still for a moment and even went so far as to escape from the house through a dog hole just to snatch her back from someone else.
But now facing her questioning, Huo Yucheng suddenly didn't know what to say.
Yes, why should I make these promises to her?
Chu Yuan watched the light in his eyes gradually dim, and he couldn't stop feeling disappointed. Just as he was about to ask him to leave, he heard his decisive words.
"Yuanyuan, I can't care less. When I think about you marrying someone else in the future, my heart feels like a piece is missing. If my mother doesn't agree with me marrying only you, I will take you to the border, and we can live there for the rest of our lives."
"Are you really willing to give up everything in Shangjing City for me?"
Huo Yucheng looked at her firmly: "I am willing, what about you? Are you willing to go with me?"
Chu Yuan didn't know where he got the courage from, but he suddenly wanted to bet with him this time.
Because she has the confidence, even if this man really betrays her, she will not lose.
"As long as you can keep your promise, I will stick with you till the end."
The two hugged each other tightly. At least at this moment, they gave their 100% sincerity.
