Chapter 324: Fighting for the No. Scholar
"Yes, if he changes his mind, I will leave him and find another young talent. With my status, intelligence and beauty, and as the legitimate daughter of the King of Zhenbei, I can choose any young talent in the entire capital."
Murong Shuo immediately persuaded Gao Zhijun. He wanted to help his sister cancel the engagement immediately and then bring young talents from the capital to his sister for her to choose from.
"My second brother's idea is also my idea. If Huo Jinqian betrays my sister, we will help her cancel the engagement and help her choose a good husband."
Murong Fu also began to express his opinion that he would never let his sister suffer any injustice.
As much as Liu Ningchu liked Huo Jinqian just now, she now hates him as much.
"This may be a misunderstanding. It is the wishful thinking of those women. Jinqian cannot possibly like those delicate ladies."
Hong Qiujue comforted Gao Zhijun, fearing that she might misunderstand.
Jinqian is not the kind of person who is greedy for new things and forgets the old, or who gets tired of the old and loves the new.
She knew very well the character of the son she raised.
"My daughter-in-law is right. Don't worry, Jinqian is not that kind of person. He is kind-hearted and loyal. He will never change his mind easily. He has liked Zhijun for so long, it is impossible for him to stop loving her."
"Sister-in-law, those women are just wishful thinking. It's impossible for Brother Six to like them. Don't you understand how Brother Six feels about you? He wants to spend his whole life with you, so how could he change his mind so easily?"
Huo Jinxiu comforted Gao Zhijun and analyzed the situation for her.
"You all misunderstood. I'm not unhappy, nor do I not trust him. If he really changes his mind, becomes ungrateful, and wants to marry another woman, I will automatically withdraw. I hope you won't try to stop me, and won't vent your anger on him. A forced melon won't be sweet. If he doesn't love me anymore, just let him go."
Gao Zhijun felt warm in her heart when she saw that everyone was worried about her and cared about her.
In this world, besides love, there is also family affection, not to mention that she doesn't think this is love. Nothing is more precious than family affection.
Seeing that they wanted to say something else, Gao Zhijun called everyone to eat: "Okay, let's continue eating? Otherwise the food will get cold."
Everyone had to agree that the originally delicious food suddenly became difficult to swallow.
The servants went back to call their master, and when the master heard the news, he immediately came over in a carriage.
Since their daughter liked the top scholar, they snatched him away and made him their daughter's husband.
The custom of ministers competing for the number one scholar has always existed, and many number one scholars have agreed to it. After all, if he can get close to a minister in the court, his career will be smooth and he will have to work less for decades!
When they arrived, Huo Jinqian had already ridden past the Hongfu Restaurant and was almost at the palace.
The ladies and girls who had just tried to rob Huo Jinqian also left the restaurant and followed closely behind.
When the ministers came to Huo Jinqian and saw that it was Huo Jinqian, they were all embarrassed.
This number one scholar was not something they could dream about, he was Princess Xiangyun’s fiancé.
Princess Xiangyun, the emperor's favorite, the people's respected, the benefactor of Daliang, who dares to offend her? Who dares to snatch her husband?
"Dad, the one my daughter wants to marry is him, today's top scholar?"
"Dad, my daughter wants to marry a girl, you have to help me snatch her away, otherwise I will never marry."
"Dad, you are the Marquis, you must help your daughter get the top prize!"
…………
Those young ladies pulled their fathers and started to speak in a coquettish manner.
They all believed that as long as they used their trump card, their father would agree.
"Nonsense! How can you marry the number one scholar? He is Princess Xiangyun's fiancé."
The ministers scolded angrily.
If it were someone else, they would definitely help their daughter find a husband.
He was none other than Princess Xiangyun's fiancé, and no one dared to offend Princess Xiangyun.
"What? He is Princess Xiangyun's fiancé?"
Not only did the young ladies not believe it, even the ladies didn't believe it.
It's no wonder they didn't believe it. At the banquet, men and women were separated by a screen. Later, when they played pot-throwing, everyone's focus was on Princess Xiangyun and the Second Princess, and they didn't pay any attention to Huo Jinqian.
When some ladies and young ladies heard about Princess Xiangyun, they stopped their arguing. Although they were unwilling, they had no choice but to accept it. After all, Princess Xiangyun was not an ordinary princess. Her status was special and they could not compare with her.
Some young ladies didn't think so. They looked down on princesses of different surnames who came from rural areas. Although she was favored by the emperor and loved by the people, she had no real power and could not be compared with their family backgrounds.
When Huo Jinqian was stopped by those ministers at the beginning, he looked confused and unhappy, not knowing what they wanted to do.
Later, he heard that those ministers were the fathers of the young ladies behind him, and they stopped him because they wanted to take him back to be their daughters' husbands. His face turned black instantly, and a raging fire burned in his heart, and he became violent.
It was because of their daughter that Zhijun misunderstood him. He was anxious and wanted it to be over quickly so that he could go back and explain and comfort her.
"Dad, my daughter wants to marry him. I don't care what method you use, I just want him to marry me!"
"Dad, she is a princess from the countryside. Why are you afraid of her? Even if she is a princess, she is not presentable. How can she be as precious as a daughter?"
"Dad, the top scholar is handsome and knowledgeable. Don't you want your daughter to marry him? With the top scholar joining us, our family will become even stronger."
The young ladies who looked down on Gao Zhijun asked their father to help them win Huo Jinqian.
"Nonsense! If you keep talking nonsense, I will punish you according to the family rules!"
My goodness, you actually dare to say bad things about Princess Xiangyun, are you looking for death?
"Mr. Huo, I'm sorry, we didn't know you were the top scorer. Please forgive me for any offense I caused you just now!"
"Yes, it was because I was young and ignorant that I offended Mr. Huo. I hope you can forgive her because of her young age."
"My daughter just bumped into Mr. Huo. I apologize on her behalf. I hope Mr. Huo will be magnanimous and not hold it against her."
The fathers of those young ladies flattered Huo Jinqian and used moral blackmail to blackmail him.
