Chapter 228: Chapter 228
"Lord Lu, are you plotting against me?" Xiao Muheng gritted his teeth and looked at Lu Mingzhu wishing he could tear her apart.

Lu Youping was furious, if Liu Xiang wasn't here, he would have slapped him long ago.

"I'm... plotting against you? Are you arrogant?"

When he is a relative of the emperor, let him cling to him even if he ruins his daughter's reputation.

In a daze, Lu Mingzhu saw Xiao Muheng's face, and a bewitched smile appeared on her delicate face: "Brother Heng, I'm so happy, so you haven't forgotten our marriage contract, and you are still willing to marry me of……"

As she spoke, she closed her eyes again in a daze, as if she was just talking in her sleep.

Who knows what she said, suddenly like a drop of water splashing into a boiling oil pan.

Liu Xiang stared at Xiao Muheng coldly, the terrifying light in his eyes made Xiao Muheng's scalp tingle.

"engagement?"

Xiao Muheng is so courageous that he came to the Liu family to propose marriage while having a marriage contract with someone else. Is it because he thought his daughter would not get married so he wanted to be in two boats?

Knowing this earlier, he would rather send his daughter to a nunnery than have this marriage.

Liu Xiang was so angry that his chest heaved, and he felt ashamed of being played by Xiao Muheng.

"Father-in-law, calm down. I have already broken off the engagement with the Lu family. The reason why I didn't say it was because I felt it was unnecessary, and I definitely didn't hide it on purpose." Xiao Muheng hurriedly explained.

This bitch!

What he painstakingly kept hidden was revealed by her.

Liu Xiang looked at Xiao Muheng with serious eyes, as if he was measuring the authenticity of his words.

Chu Jinyan tapped the armrest of the chair lightly with his long and slender fingers, his lazy posture revealed a bit of self-important domineering, and his star-like eyes suddenly looked at Lu Youping: "Lord Lu, is this the case?"

A soft sentence fell into Lu Youping's ears, inexplicably making him understand that the eighth prince wanted to provoke trouble.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he resigned himself to his fate: "No, Xiao Muheng made an engagement with the little girl last year and has not withdrawn. I just swallowed this dumb loss because I heard that he went to the Liu family to propose a marriage, and I didn't want to let Xiang Liu lose face. Otherwise, At that time, there will only be troubles between the two families."

Look how understanding he is.

Xiao Muheng gritted his teeth angrily: "In this case, there is no such thing as a marriage contract between Lu Mingzhu and me."

Chu Jinyan: "Snatching people without a marriage contract, do you think that you can do whatever you want by becoming the son-in-law of the Prime Minister's mansion, don't you? The man was found in your mansion today. With so many eyes looking at him, you gave him his reputation." Ruined, you are not going to give an explanation?"

Liu Xiang was so angry that his stomach hurt when he heard this.

The eighth prince was mocking him for being arrogant and domineering, so he allowed his son-in-law to rob the official's daughter.

Xiao Muheng was startled and angry, his face turned blue and pale.

Let him give an explanation?

Could it be that the Eighth Prince wanted to force him to withdraw from the Liu family's marriage and admit his marriage contract with Lu Mingzhu?

Lu Youping looked at Chu Jinyan in astonishment, secretly thinking about what he meant by this?
Just as he was thinking about it, Chu Jinyan suddenly said again: "Since you like Miss Lu so much and you don't hesitate to snatch her into your house secretly, I think it's better to take her as a concubine. After all, your marriage with the Liu family is full of turmoil." , we can’t ask Liu Xiang to be ridiculed by people all over the capital again.”

Liu Xiang: "..."

I really appreciate you.

Lu Youping looked at Chu Jinyan in astonishment with a stiff face.

Didn't you come to support him?

Your Highness, you are sure that you are not here to mess things up!

Let Lu Mingzhu be Xiao Muheng's concubine...

Lu Youping felt ashamed of being slapped in the face.

But the other party was Chu Jinyan, and he couldn't afford to offend him, so he pursed his lips and lowered his head, silent.

Chu Jinyan didn't care about Lu Youping's mood, and immediately said, "Lord Lu, what do you think?"

Lu Youping: "..."

He doesn't look much.

But he dared not say that.

"Your Highness, there are 1 of you who don't want to have anything to do with the Xiao family. It's just that the little girl was kidnapped by Xiao Muheng, and the reputation is damaged. The Xiao family is indeed responsible. I dare not embarrass the Prime Minister. I am willing to compromise. "

What a compromise.

Liu Xiang was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes.

Was it his fault in the end?

Liu Xiang glared at Xiao Muheng angrily: "Hmph, you will solve the trouble yourself." After finishing speaking, he walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

Xiao Muheng called anxiously: "Father-in-law..."

The only response to him was Liu Xiang's indifferent back.

Xiao Muheng felt uneasy, hating Lu Youping and Lu Mingzhu to the extreme.

This was a trap set by the father and daughter, because Lu Mingzhu was worthless and could not marry, so they pestered him to take over this shabby product.

Hmph, since she tried her best to be his concubine and entered his Xiao family's door, Lu Mingzhu would never have a good time in her life.

Xiao Muheng was so angry that his gaze turned cold inch by inch.

Chu Jinyan got up at this time, and said with a blank face: "You two choose an auspicious day, and come in as soon as possible, Mr. Lu, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

Lu Youping couldn't help shivering, and obediently replied: "Your Highness said so."

His Highness meant that Liu Xiang was furious because of this incident, and he might kill Mingzhu before the two got married.

So His Highness is so active in letting his daughter become Xiao Muheng's concubine, is he deliberately trying to displease Prime Minister Liu?Or do you want Mingzhu to enter Xiao's mansion as his internal response?
The more he thought about it, the more Lu Youping felt that it made sense, and he got a strange sense of accomplishment from the shame of his daughter being a concubine.

The achievement of working for His Highness the Eighth Prince.

Since this girl would rather be Xiao Muheng's concubine and follow him, then he will fulfill her as a father.

What's more, the reputation of being kidnapped is hard to say. Marquis Wu'an told his servants not to spread the word, but so many people know the inside story, it is indeed the most appropriate way for Lu Mingzhu to marry Xiao Muheng.

Save your reputation.

Chu Jinyan frowned suspiciously as he looked at Lu Youping, who suddenly seemed to have been spat with chicken blood.

If he knew the speculation in Lu Youping's heart, he might think that Lu Youping was thinking too much.

Doing this by herself is purely to solve the trouble for Lu Xiang. Instead of letting her talk to Lu Youping to send Lu Mingzhu to Xiao's mansion, it would be easier to order directly.

Chu Jinyan would also be happy to be able to add trouble to Liu Xiang.

It depends on whether Liu Xiang can support this son-in-law without any grudges in the future.

Lu Youping cupped his fists towards He Yu: "Today is really troublesome to Lord Hou, if you dare to step down as an official, you will come to the door to thank you in person."

He Yu subconsciously glanced at Chu Jinyan, with a polite smile on his face: "Your Majesty Lu, you are being polite, these are all my duties."

Lu Youping showed him a tacit smile, and then helped the confused Lu Mingzhu to say goodbye to Chu Jinyan and He Yu.

Before leaving, he said to Xiao Muheng with a sullen expression: "Why is my daughter a concubine? You know in your heart that if His Royal Highness hadn't made the decision to accept Mingzhu as a concubine for you, I would never let this matter go. The treatment that should be given, and the rest of my daughter can't be less."
