Chapter 345 Xiahou Zhen Cancels Engagement
They didn't know whether Di Ran was afraid or not, but they saw that His Majesty looked unhappy.
Ji Yao watched Di Ran's arrogant back as he left. A cold murderous intent flashed across her eyes, but soon disappeared.
His gloomy expression faded, and he looked at Ashina and the others with an embarrassed smile.
"My son is so rude. I'm sorry to have made the princess, Prime Minister Yi, and the general laugh at me."
"Hehe, I have seen the upbringing of your prince."
General Huyan Zhen pulled a long face and smiled sarcastically.
Although Ji Yao was angry, she did not dare to refute anything. After all, they were the ones who were rude first.
At this moment, Xiahou Zhen stood up with a cold face.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say."
Ji Yao looked a little uncomfortable with Xiahou Zhen, and her eyes flickered slightly.
"Oh? What does Xia Aiqing want to say?"
She had intended to separate her and Lao Liu before, but Lao Liu later asked to marry her in public.
This made her not know where to put her face when facing Weiyuan Marquis Mansion.
Xiahou Zhen had no idea about Ji Yao’s entanglement and guilt. Her face was now ashen and ugly, and she felt as if there was a vast green grassland above her head.
It is foreseeable that after this incident, Xiahou Zhen will become a laughing stock for others after dinner.
Thinking of this, Xiahou Zhen frowned, suppressed the anger in his heart, and spoke to Ji Yao in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.
"Your Majesty, I think that women should get married when they are old enough and men should get married when they are old enough. Since the Sixth Prince already has a lover, I don't want to be the bad guy."
"I am willing to cancel the engagement with the Sixth Prince and set him free. Whether a woman gets married or a man gets married is irrelevant."
Ji Yao frowned when she heard this: "This..."
If Xiahou Zhen had proposed to cancel the engagement before, she would have thought that she looked down on her son and would have been angry.
But now the fault lies with her son. If she were him, she would not want to marry such a unreasonable man who has someone else in his heart. But having said that, she still felt a little uncomfortable about her son being rejected, not to mention Rou Guijun Su Yurou.
As soon as she heard that Xiahou Zhen wanted to cancel the engagement, she objected without thinking.
"No! The engagement between the emperor and General Xiahou was made since childhood. How can we cancel it just like that?"
Staring at Xiahou Zhen, he said angrily: "General Xiahou, you and Ning'er grew up together. He has always regarded you as his future wife and has always wanted to marry you when he grows up. How can you easily cancel the engagement?"
"Are you doing this to Ning'er? You disappoint me so much!"
Ha~
Treat her as your wife?
Does he really want to marry her?
If he really liked her, why would he seduce other women in front of everyone?
She even pestered him shamelessly and asked for marriage. He didn't even take her, his fiancée, seriously.
If he had any sense of shame he would not have embarrassed her in public.
Oh, she can’t afford a husband like that.
Xiahou Zhen was sarcastic in his heart, his expression was cold, but his determination was not shaken.
Even though the Sixth Prince had gone too far, there was still some friendship from their childhood, so she didn't want to say anything unpleasant and only spoke loudly and tactfully.
"I am a rough warrior girl, I have always been rude and I don't know how to be gentle with women. Besides, swords are merciless on the battlefield, I can't guarantee that I can survive every time."
"I really don't dare to expect the frail Sixth Prince to suffer with me. I hope Your Majesty will allow me to cancel the engagement."
He knelt down before Ji Yao and said in a loud voice: "I am willing to guard the border for your majesty for generations and defend the territory of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Xiahou Zhen spoke so firmly and decisively that Rou Guijun was so angry that her face turned black.
"you!"
Xiahou Zhen's elder sister, Hanlin scholar Xiahou Qi, also stood up and spoke for her sister.
However, she was even more ruthless than Xiahou Zhen, and directly pushed the Sixth Prince towards the path of marriage.
