Becoming The Real Rich Daughter After Divorce Novel - Chapter 342
Chapter 342: Chapter 342, Imperial Consort Jian came to the Qiao family to propose marriage
When Hong Qifeng heard Qiao Ruoyi’s words, he was suddenly shocked. “You’re not joking, right? How can our Hong family be worthy of Marquis an Yuan’s Daughter?”
Which one of those who went to matchmake Qiao Ruoyi was not a descendant of a noble family?
After all, Qiao Ruoyi was the Marquis’daughter, the Empress’younger sister, eldest sister, and Princess Wu. Her elder brother and father were all in high positions, and even her sister-in-law was the only daughter of Princess Shou’an.
Qiao ruoyi said, “Lord Hong is now the emperor’s teacher, and you are my Shangguan. It should be that I am not worthy of you, not to mention that I am an illegitimate child.”
Qiao Ruoyi did not want to settle the marriage, but if there was a good man, she might not necessarily not want to get married. Although those who came to the marquisdom to talk about marriage were all nobles.., but without exception, they were all illegitimate children, or those who did not have a noble title, or those who did not have the ability.
If one were to consider the situation, if the cousin of Uncle Zheng’s mansion had not been kicked by Princess Fu Lu and injured his penis, with her status, she might not have been able to marry him.
The words of the Zheng family were harsh, but they were also true.
Ever since Qiao Ruoi quarreled with Marquis an Yuan that day, she had been somewhat resentful of marrying him. However, those who came to propose marriage were all interested in the power of Marquis an Yuan’s mansion.
The Hong family was different. Hong Yang was a staunch and loyal official.
After going to the government office, Hong Qifeng brought Qiao Ruoyi to meet Hong Yinglong in a private room at the Savoury Pavilion.
…
Hong Yinglong saw Qiao ruoyi and said, “So fifth Miss Qiao is also here.”
Qiao ruoyi bowed and said, “Young Master Hong, I have liked you for a long time.”
Hong Qifeng:”! ! !”
Was the usually quiet Qiao Ruoyi actually so bold? She clearly did not know who her brother was, but it was better for ruoyi to be her sister-in-law than ye suxin to be her sister-in-law.
Hong Yinglong thought he had misheard. “Fifth Miss Qiao…”
Qiao ruoyi said, “Forgive me for being rash. I have admired Young Master Hong for a long time, and I want to marry him as my wife. I heard that Young Master Hong is troubled by his marriage, and I don’t want to leave behind any regrets…”
Hong Yinglong’s face flushed red. He had known Qiao Ruoyi for a long time and felt a trace of regret for her. She was not like Tong Yingying, who was constantly shouting for her daughter to be bullied.
She had always been aloof and aloof. She did not have the lowly status of a daughter of a concubine nor did she have any arrogance. She did not show off at the poetry meet, but she was not bad either.
Qiao Ruoyi loved books. He had seen Qiao ruoyi take the jewelry given to her by the Marquis Mansion to the bookstore to exchange for books.
She would definitely come to any calligraphy and painting meeting of famous masters.
He had also heard that Qiao Ruoyi had a lot of books in Chang ‘an.
Hong Qifeng touched Hong Yinglong’s hand and said, “Brother, you can think about what ruoyi said. Ruoyi is much better than ye suxin. If you ask to marry ruoyi, father and mother will definitely agree.”
Hong Yinglong blushed and nodded lightly.
..
In the Hong family, Hong Yang was the first one to disagree. “Nonsense. I advise His Majesty every day in court not to let the external relatives be the dominant one. Now that our Hong family and the Qiao family are connected by marriage, doesn’t that mean that the external relatives of the Qiao family are becoming more and more powerful?”
Hong qifeng whispered, “Father is a direct subject. Rather than letting Qiao ruoyi marry someone else to expand the power of the Qiao family, it’s better to connect by marriage with our Hong Family!”
Hong Yang actually felt that what Hong Qifeng said made a little bit of sense.
Madam Hong objected, “No, my long ER can not let go of a good first-wife daughter and not marry a daughter of a concubine!”
“Mother, not to mention the difference between the Ye family and the Qiao family, how can ye suxin compare to Ruoyi at all? “Ruoyi is a female scholar. Many men do not have her ability!”Hong Qifeng said.
Madam Hong said, “If she is so capable, our Hong family will not tolerate her. We might as well not let a concubine’s daughter enter our Hong family.”
Hong Yang also said, “It is indeed inappropriate to be a concubine’s daughter.”
Hong Qifeng was extremely angry. “Father, mother, with the Qiao family’s family background and Qiao Ruoyi’s looks and bearing, which one of them is not the best among the women? Just because she is a concubine’s daughter…”
Madam Hong said, “Yes, just because she’s a concubine’s child, if your second brother wants to marry her, that’s fine. Long Er is the legitimate son, and the one he wants to marry is also the legitimate daughter!”
Hong Yinglong whispered to Hong Qifeng, “I’ll have to trouble little sister to apologize on my behalf.”
Hong Qifeng was truly extremely disappointed. Qiao Ruoyi was clearly so outstanding, so why did even her own brother dislike her because she was a concubine’s child?
..
The next day at lunchtime, Hong Qifeng invited Qiao Ruoyi to eat at the Savory Pavilion again. However, the private room was full today, so Qiao Ruoyi brought Hong Qifeng to Princess Fu Lu’s sky-class private room.
Hong Qifeng said, “Ruoyi, I’m really sorry. My parents think that our Hong family is lowly and doesn’t match up to your Qiao family…”
Qiao ruoyi smiled and poured a cup of tea for Hong Qifeng. “Try it. This is tea from Lin ‘an. How can the Hong family not match up to the Qiao Family? They probably think that I’m a bastard, right?”
Hong Qifeng apologized, “Ruoyi, I’m sorry. I don’t know why my parents are so pedantic. You’re obviously so outstanding. You’re more than enough to match up to My Big Brother.”
Qiao ruoyi smiled and said, “There’s no need to apologize. I’ve been used to it since I was young. I shouldn’t have expected to marry a legitimate son.”
Hong Qifeng said, “Sister Ruoyi, you have the Empress as your sister. The Empress loves you so much. If you really like my brother, why don’t you go and ask the Empress to grant you a Marriage?”? “Then didn’t sister Miao Miao ask the Empress to grant you a marriage? Now she’s very affectionate with general Yue!”
Qiao ruoyi said, “That’s not the same. Sister Miao Miao asked the empress to grant her a marriage because old madam Yue went to ask for it first. Even my mother-in-law and father-in-law didn’t like me when I married her. What’s the point of a marriage?”
Hong Qifeng really felt that it wasn’t worth it for Qiao Ruoyi. “It’s my brother who’s not blessed. You’ll definitely find a very, very good marriage.”
..
In the Anyuan Marquis Mansion.
Zheng Xiao saw imperial consort Jian in front of him and saluted repeatedly. “Imperial Consort Jian has graced us with her presence. The entire mansion has not welcomed her. Please forgive us, Imperial Consort Jian.”
Imperial consort Jian said, “Madam Marquis, there is no need to be so courteous. Today, imperial consort Jian came here to shamelessly tell King Lu about the marriage. When King Lu was young, he did many wrong things. Now, he has already corrected himself. I heard that the fifth young miss in the mansion has yet to settle the marriage…”
Zheng Xiao was surprised. Imperial consort Jian actually came to talk about the marriage for King Lu. No matter what, King Lu was still the emperor’s biological brother. Although he had colluded with King Yong in the matter of private salt, and had dealt with Lu Chen many times before Lu Chen ascended the throne.
However, now that Lu Chen ascended the throne, he did not bother with King Lu and treated this brother equally. If she were to marry him, it would be great to be a princess consort.
However, she was afraid that it would be a side consort.
“I would like to ask the Marquise if she is willing to let my daughter become Princess Lu…”
Zheng Xiao said, “Please forgive me, Princess Consort. This matter is very important. Let me think about it again…”
Imperial consort Jian said, “Please take your time to think about it, there is no rush.”
Just as imperial consort Jian left and Qiao Ruoyi returned, Zheng Xiao asked Qiao ruoyi to come over and tell Qiao ruoyi about this matter.
“Princess? !”Qiao Ruoyi was also shocked. “There must be something strange about this!”
