Unexpectedly, their plan was of no use. My sister actually had secretly made a promise, and she was a sixth-rank official from a peasant family.

"Then why can't this candidate be replaced by Gu Chengyu? He is only a sixth-grade official now, so my grandfather will not be afraid of him. Besides, he is talented and will climb to a high position in the future. Needless to say, it will be beneficial to our family.

.”

Qin Yingyuan knew that Gu Chengyu's background was indeed a bit poor, but other than this, there was nothing else to fault.

"Which young master in the capital can be as capable as him? When those people were at his age, they were either holding books and memorizing the Four Books and Five Classics, or they were chasing chickens and dogs outside to make people dislike them."

She didn't care that her elder brother would scold her, so she simply sacrificed her face and fought for herself.

Qin Min was so angry that her sister stood up from the chair, "You are a boudoir girl, how can you be so shameless? You talk about a foreign man when you talk and talk about it. It seems that without him in the world, there will be no good son."

But then he thought about it, and his sister was right. He had heard His Highness mention Gu Chengyu earlier, with some appreciation in his words.

He also said that if he had the help of this person, he would have a better chance of winning the throne in the future.

Although there were only a few words, these words were already unabashed praise. His Highness had previously asked him to have more contact with this person. It would be best if he could bring the other person into his camp. If not, then that's not possible either.

Be against it.

So he is having a headache these days! His mother offended Gu Chengyu when she met Gu Chengyu at Baoen Temple.

It was previously rumored that as soon as Gu Chengyu was promoted, he rushed to the emperor to ask for a royal title and a title for his mother. This shows that he was a very filial person.

But my mother not only offended Gu Chengyu that day, she also offended the old lady. It's hard to say that she has prejudices against their family now!

So when he learned that Sister Ying was interacting with the old lady, he didn't stop her in order to ease the relationship.

"Ying'er, it's not because I don't help you, but because you are a step too late after all!"

Qin Min sighed. In fact, he was not that resistant to his sister marrying Gu Chengyu. A hero doesn't care about his background. As long as Gu Chengyu is capable, will he be afraid that Sister Ying will not have a good life in the future?

In addition, the old man and the old lady of the Gu family cannot always live in the capital. When they return to their ancestral home, my sister will be able to take charge of the family. Wouldn't it be more comfortable than those wives from aristocratic families?

What's more, the identity of my sister is there, and it is impossible for the Gu family to look down on my sister, so I still have to respect and support her.

When Gu Chengyu becomes his brother-in-law, His Highness the Second Highness will be able to give an explanation. But they are still a step too late after all, and Sister Ying will definitely not be able to have her wish come true.

Qin Yingyuan had a bad premonition in her heart, and she asked anxiously: "What does eldest brother mean by saying this?"

"Today Gu Chengyu's teacher Liang Zhirui came to the palace with a sign. I guess it was for the marriage of his granddaughter."

Suddenly, he discovered that his sister was not like an ordinary boudoir girl, and her views were also very unique. Qin Min put away his contempt and planned to discuss this matter with her sister.

"Brother, what do you mean by this is that his teacher wants to betroth Yao Mengxian to Gu Chengyu?" Qin Yingyuan's eyes widened, feeling filled with anger.

"It should mean something like this. The Crown Prince's wife of Zhenguo Palace previously said outside that she wanted to compete for Princess Jing. I think Liang Zhirui heard it, so he hurriedly entered the palace in order to push down this door.

Marriage, right? After all, with his temperament, it should be impossible for him to set his sights on the position of Princess Jing."

Qin Min nodded. Although the incident in the imperial study room had not reached his ears, he believed that the analysis just now was very likely.

If Liang Zhirui really wanted his grandson to become Princess Jing, then there was no need for him to enter the palace, he could just let it go and pretend to be deaf and dumb.

Because His Highness the Second Highness said that Prince Jing also wanted Gu Chengyu to help him, that's why he asked Ke to do this.

Qin Yingyuan curled her lips when she heard about Ke. She especially looked down upon that woman from a small family.

How could a girl's family be an eyesore to her? If she was nice to that girl and found a good marriage in the future, would she still be at odds with her parents' family?

As long as the girl's parents are kind to her, the girl will not stand idly by if something happens to her parents' family in the future.

Even if he disliked the legitimate daughter left behind, he shouldn't have done it so blatantly that all the aristocratic families in the capital would laugh.

The funny thing is that Ke Shi still thinks he is smart and pretends that no one else knows, but who in this capital doesn’t have sharp eyes?

"Since Prince Jing chose Yao Mengxian, how could my grandfather agree to let Gu Chengyu marry her?"

Qin Yingyuan couldn't wait to know the result. According to her eldest brother, did her grandfather agree?

"That's what I say, but who can guess my grandfather's thoughts accurately? Can my grandfather feel at ease if Prince Jing marries that girl?"

Seeing Qin Yingyuan's face pale, Qin Min couldn't bear it, but he felt that the emperor would agree to Liang Zhirui in the end.

As for Prince Jing, the emperor will certainly make compensation.

"Then did grandpa agree?"

Qin Yingyuan felt that all her strength had been drained from her body. She fell down on the chair and stared blankly at the sapphire paperweight on the desk.

In fact, the promise is obvious. Even if the marriage is not granted today, what about tomorrow?

Rather than giving Yao Mengxian to Prince Jing, she believed that the Emperor would be more inclined to give Gu Chengyu the marriage.

"Not yet, but I think it will be in the next two days." Qin Min shook her head, not knowing how to persuade her sister.

"Then this matter is not a foregone conclusion yet. Is there any way, brother, to help me?" Qin Yingyuan didn't want to watch Gu Chengyu marry someone else.

Qin Min was speechless for a moment, and then he frowned deeply. Isn't this sister Ying still unwilling to give up?

"You know my grandfather's temperament. It is difficult to change what he decides. The emperor is so eloquent, how can he go back on his words so easily? Besides, my mother will never agree to this, so you'd better stop thinking about it!

"

Qin Min didn't expect that her sister would be so stubborn, just like her mother's temper.

Qin Yingyuan glanced at her eldest brother with disappointment, then stood up and left.

"I will go to the palace tomorrow to attend to the illness." After saying this, Qin Yingyuan turned around and left.

Seeing his sister in despair, Qin Min felt uncomfortable. But this was absolutely impossible, and he would not take risks and anger his grandfather just for Gu Chengyu.

He opened his mouth to try to persuade him a few more words, but finally sighed and said no more words.

The next day, Gu Chengyu went to the Hanlin Academy to attend the ceremony as usual.

As soon as he entered the house, Qiu Yifan came over.

"Have you heard about Jin Yu? I'm afraid Master Fang won't get a good result this time. Dali Temple has checked a lot of evidence of his crimes, so he should be in danger."
