C48 Withdrawal of the marriage?
C48 Withdrawal of the marriage?
"Then what should we do? City Lord will definitely not agree to it! " Xue Hai wiped off his cold sweat.
He was the most successful merchant in the Thousand Gold City, he only needed fifty million silver taels to pay twice for his betrothal gift, which was one million gold taels.
But, the target of Xue Qingqing's engagement was the young City Lord. If she went to break off the engagement, wouldn't that just be smacking Thousand Gold City's face?
Then from today onwards, they will probably not be at peace in Thousand Gold City.
"I don't care. Anyway, I'm not going to marry that ugly bastard, and Daddy, haven't you recruited so many ministers in the past few years? Our Xue Family isn't much worse than the Zhang Family, and we won't be able to cause a ruckus." Xue Qingqing said angrily.
"Little girl, you really know how to stir up trouble for me. It was good enough that you didn't agree to it at the time. Now you have made something big for daddy."
Xue Hai was also extremely helpless, but he doted on Xue Qingqing the most, and he also didn't like Xue Qingqing marrying a person that was ugly like a pig. Even though the other party had extremely high innate skills, he had already been accepted as a direct disciple by a Elder disciple.
As an outsider, Ye Xuan also shut his mouth tightly, unable to interrupt.
The three of them were silent for a while, but at this time, a Xue Clan servant suddenly came in.
Master, someone from City Lord's Mansion has arrived!
"What?" "So fast?"
Xue Hai was shocked, he never thought that the Zhang Family's information network would be so good, Xue Qingqing had not even been back for 10 minutes, and someone had already arrived.
"We must have been discovered when we were entering the city. Father, I don't care, in any case I'm going to break off the engagement. You decide for yourself, or I'll run away again." Xue Qingqing's heart also skipped a beat as she said.
"Don't, the world is so chaotic now, if you run around randomly, what if you meet some bad guy?" As Xue Hai spoke, he also turned his head and said: "Quickly go and invite Master Lian. Afterwards, invite the noble guest of City Lord's Mansion in."
"Yes sir!"
The servant hurriedly left. Not long later, a middle-aged man walked in.
"Master Lian. This time, our Xue Clan may have a huge conflict with the Zhang Clan. I hope that Master Lian can help us. I agree to your conditions!" Xue Hai said in pain.
This Consecrate was a recent expert that he had invited over, and had already reached the ninth stage of the Martial Dao. But the other party's price was too high, equivalent to the price of five people who were at the peak of the eighth stage of Martial Dao, so Xue Hai was a little hesitant.
However, right now, he could only agree to it!
"Haha, that's fine. Since I'm the Guardian of the Xue family, then I will definitely make a move." This Chief Reverend was also full of smiles because he could get 10 million silver taels every month. Furthermore, he could get this without doing anything at all.
Following that, the leader of the company was standing behind Xue Hai. Not long later, the people from City Lord's Mansion also came in.
"So it's General Chen. Greetings, my Lord!" When Xue Hai saw the newcomer, he immediately stood up and cupped his fists.
This General Chen was the guard general of the Thousand Gold City, and also the trusted aide of the Thousand Gold City.
After entering, he found Xue Qingqing, who was sitting beside him, and asked, "Aside from Xue'er, do you know the purpose of my visit?"
Xue Hai gave an awkward laugh, and said: "I know, I presume that General Chen must have come for the little girl's marriage."
"That's right, since Miss Xue has already returned to Thousand Gold City, City Lord will not pursue Miss Xue's escape from the marriage. City Lord will set a time, three days later, it will be the date of Miss Xue's engagement to Young City Lord." General Chen said.
"This ?" Xue Hai hesitated, he did not know how to start.
"Does Steward Xue have any other opinions?" I will pass the message to City Lord on behalf of you. " General Chen said.
Xue Hai glanced at Xue Qingqing, and saw that the latter was already on the verge of crying, causing his heart to jump, and said: "General Chen, I hope you help me pass on the message to City Lord, this marriage won't be completed, then I will return the dowry back to the Zhang Residence at double the price!"
"What? You want to end the engagement?" Have you thought about the consequences of doing this? " General Chen said in disbelief.
In the Thousand Gold City, the City Lord was the biggest, but there was actually someone who dared to break off the City Lord's Mansion's engagement.
The most important thing was that the target was still the Young City Lord of the Thousand Gold City!
"Yes, I have already decided on this, I hope that General Chen can inform the City Lord." Xue Hai braced himself and said.
Xue Hai, do you really think that your Xue Family can go against City Lord? Young City Lord has already taken a fancy to Miss Xue. If you dare to quit this marriage, I'm afraid you won't be able to do as you wish in Thousand Gold City. " General Chen reminded him.
Xue Hai clenched his teeth, and said: "See our guest out!"
"Good, very good. I will definitely pass these words on to City Lord. Farewell!" General Chen said angrily as he turned around to leave.
Even though he was at the peak of the eighth stage of the Martial Dao, he could feel that the person behind Xue Hai was not a simple person. At the very least, he was at the ninth stage of the Martial Dao.
After General Chen left, Xue Qingqing also immediately rushed over to hug Xue Hai, and fiercely kissed him on the cheek. "Father is the best."
"Little girl, you've stirred up so much trouble for father this time. If I knew earlier, why did you agree to this marriage?" Xue Hai said helplessly with a blushing face.
"I already said that I'm regretting it. Who told you to be so slow with your drawing. Alright, that guy is ugly as a reason. Secondly, it's actually because of him." As Xue Qingqing said that, he suddenly extended a finger that was like an onion and pointed at Ye Xuan.
Xue Hai was a little confused, and didn't really understand what he meant.
Xue Qingqing explained: "I don't have a bad appearance, no matter what, I want to marry someone like Ye Xuan. Also, Father, didn't you already want to marry me to him before this?"
"You mean, you want to marry Ye Xuan?" Xue Hai was startled, then he immediately reacted and said, "That won't do, little girl, you are messing around. You have annulled the marriage in the City Lord, if you marry Ye Xuan now, wouldn't that harm him?"
Xue Hai was actually also a Warrior, but he was made from Dan, and in essence, he was a merchant.
It didn't matter who his future son-in-law was. It didn't matter whether he was in the Strongman or ordinary people, as long as his brain wasn't stupid and was able to take over his business.
"Father, don't underestimate Ye Xuan. Do you know what realm he is in now?" Xue Qingqing's beautiful eyes suddenly turned as she said somewhat mischievously.
"What realm?" Xue Hai asked.
Actually, he had also heard that Ye Xuan was the number one genius of the Ye Family, but, Lianyun City was only a small city.
In the Thousand Gold City, there were many who reached the fourth stage of the Martial Dao at the age of fifteen, and they were all accepted as outer sect disciples by the Cloud Breaking Sect.
