Chapter 94 Take him home and wake him up
He tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart and asked, "Which lady is it? Why do you care so much about her?"
Xu Hanyue's eyes began to dodge.
If his father knew that he rejected such a good marriage offer from the Su Mansion because of a pipa girl, he would definitely be furious.
So he must not say it now.
"Father, this, I can't tell you now." Xu Hanyue felt very guilty.
He originally wanted to wait until he got the top prize in the autumn examination and when Xu Jinhuai was happy, he would then propose to marry the Pipa girl.
But unexpectedly, Duke Su suddenly appeared along the way.
With Duke Su offering such good conditions, I'm afraid it won't be so smooth for him to marry the Pipa girl.
Thinking of this, Xu Hanyue became more and more worried.
"Can't tell me? Why can't you tell me? Isn't she a girl from a respectable family?" Xu Jinhuai stared at Xu Hanyue, already having doubts in his heart.
"No, she is a very good woman." Xu Hanyue said quickly.
Although she ended up working in a brothel due to her family's decline, she was unwilling to degenerate and insisted on selling her art instead of her body. She was even still full of longing and yearning for the future.
How could such a woman be bad? Xu Hanyue really liked her.
Xu Jinhuai's face became even uglier.
"If she is a girl from a good family, why can't you tell me who she is?"
"Tell me, whose daughter is she?" Xu Jinhuai said angrily.
"My son doesn't know." Seeing Xu Jinhuai furious, Xu Hanyue blurted out.
Yes, just say he doesn’t know, and then his father will definitely not question him again.
Xu Jinhuai snorted coldly: "How can you be attracted to a girl when you don't even know her family?"
"You are the eldest son of the princess's mansion. You are of such a noble status. How can you marry a woman of unknown origin?"
Seeing that Xu Hanyue was silent, Xu Jinhuai continued, "Since ancient times, marriage has always been decided by parents and matchmakers. Your mother and I will help you decide on this matter."
"You will come back with me today and prepare to go to Duke Su's mansion to propose marriage."
Xu Hanyue didn't expect Xu Jinhuai's attitude to be so firm.
He quickly stood up and said, "No, father, I really can't let her down."
The Pipa girl once said that if Xu Hanyue let her down, she would take his unborn child and die in front of the princess's mansion.
He couldn't even imagine such a thing.
With a slap, Xu Hanyue was slapped on the face. "How dare you disobey your father?"
This was the first time Xu Jinhuai hit him, and Xu Hanyue was stunned.
Xu Jinhuai said angrily: "Do you know that marrying Su Yuanyuan will not only bring glory to our Xu family, but also allow you to rise to prominence?!"
"For the sake of a woman, do you even give up your career?" Xu Jinhuai shouted angrily.
Seeing Xu Han standing there in a daze, not saying a word and not letting go, the anger in Xu Jinhuai's heart burned even more fiercely.
"Come here, bring the eldest son back to my house. I want to wake this rebellious son up in front of our ancestors in the ancestral hall."
When Xu Hanyue saw the furious Xu Jinhuai, he dared not resist and let the two servants take him back to the mansion.
Seeing this, Xu Hanyue's servant took advantage of Xu Jinhuai's inattention and ran back to the princess's mansion first.
He ran straight to Princess Chaoyang's courtyard and shouted, "Princess, help! Please save the eldest son."
When Princess Chaoyang heard the servant boy's shouting, she asked her maid to bring the servant boy in.
After the servant entered the room, he knelt down in front of Princess Chaoyang with a bang.
"Princess, the eldest son disobeyed his husband and was taken back to the ancestral hall to be punished. Please go and save him."
Princess Chaoyang was helping Xu Yaoyao practice standing. When she heard the servant's words, she didn't even raise her head.
"Why did Han Yue disobey the prince consort?"
The servant replied, "I heard a few words outside the door. It seems that the prince consort asked the eldest son to go to Duke Su's mansion to propose marriage. The eldest son disagreed, so the prince consort got angry and brought the eldest son back, saying that he would beat him up to wake him up."
Princess Chaoyang was a little surprised after hearing this. Xu Hanyue was determined to take the imperial examination, surpass his father in official career, and become the pride of the Xu family. How could he refuse the help from Duke Su's Mansion?
This isn't his style, is it?
Is there some secret that she doesn't know?
She asked Yuan Xiang to support Xu Yaoyao, and she turned to look at the servant boy on the ground.
"Why doesn't Han Yue agree? You follow him all day, but what do you know?"
When the servant heard Princess Chaoyang's question, he fell silent instantly.
Princess Chaoyang curled the corners of her mouth, she was right.
"If you don't explain clearly, how can I help Han Yue?" Princess Chaoyang coaxed.
The book boy on the ground was still a little hesitant.
The eldest son had instructed that no one should tell about his relationship with the Pipa girl.
But if I don’t tell him, what will happen if the eldest son is beaten to death by the prince consort?
Seeing that the servant boy looked a little shaken, Princess Chaoyang continued, "Don't worry, even if Han Yue does something out of line, I won't blame him. After all, he is my eldest son."
When the book boy heard this, he felt relieved.
"Princess, it's because the eldest son has already secretly married someone."
Sure enough.
Princess Chaoyang said doubtfully, "But the man who secretly married Han Yue has a bad family background?"
Otherwise Xu Han would have brought the person back earlier.
The servant nodded quickly, "Princess, your guess is correct. That woman is a pipa player in the Jade Noodle House."
"She, she already has the eldest son's child now."
"Does your Highness know about this?" Princess Chaoyang couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.
The book boy replied: "The prince consort doesn't know yet."
[Heh, this Xu Hanyue is really good at playing. ]
[Not only did he secretly get married to a prostitute, he even had a child with her.]
[It seems that this brothel girl is not simple. ]
[However, Xu Hanyue is the son that his scumbag father values the most. ]
[Now, she is disobeying him because of a prostitute. 】
[If my scumbag dad knew about this, he would be so pissed off. ]
Xu Yaoyao, who was standing next to her, had already hidden in Yuan Xiang's arms to watch the show, and couldn't help but make a few complaints after watching it.
Princess Chaoyang: Yaoyao is right.
She waved her hand at the servant and said, "I understand. You can go out now."
"Princess, aren't you going to save the eldest son? If you don't go, the eldest son will probably be beaten to death by the prince consort."
Thinking of Xu Jinhuai's furious look, the servant boy felt a little frightened.
Princess Chaoyang looked stern, "Why, do you, a servant boy, have the right to interfere in my actions?"
When the servant boy saw Princess Chaoyang's expression change, he dared not say anything.
Yuan Xiang gave him a look, and he quickly got up from the ground and walked out.
"Princess, should we go over and take a look?" Yuan Xiang couldn't help but ask after the servant went out.
Princess Chaoyang smiled and said, "I must go. How can I not go? I also need to help my husband to make this marriage happen."
However, she wanted to wait until Xu Hanyue was beaten before going.
Let him experience the suffering that Qingbai suffered first.
Of course, this is just an appetizer, and Xu Hanyue will have to endure a lot more in the future. !
