My house was confiscated and I was exiled. I emptied the emperor's warehouse and fled.

Chu Yi has been praised and favored by girls since he was a child, so much so that he has become absolutely confident: as long as he nods, both Qin Ruolan and Qin Ruoshan will marry well.

As rebellious as he is, he also knows that his parents have always made the final decision on marriage matters. Even he could not escape, let alone a weak woman, so he never thought of asking Qin Ruoshan what she thought.

As for her parents, the only thing they might worry about is his status as a prisoner.

As long as my family gets on the Qin family's boat, and their fate is shared from then on, there will no longer be the humble status of an exiled family.

After all, the two families are going to embark on the road of rebellion, so exile is nothing.

Therefore, he had always thought that the marriage was certain, but when Su Yunwan questioned it, he was stunned for a moment.

Seeing this, Su Yunwan said: "Rather than getting married first and falling in love later, I prefer to like each other first and then get engaged to avoid regrets later. Even if the marriage between the Qin and Chu families fails, it will not affect the cooperation between the two families."

She knew that when the Chu family proposed marriage at this time, they must be seeking to join forces.

Marriage is just to make cooperation stronger, not the cornerstone of cooperation.

Chu Yi naturally thought of this and immediately corrected his arrogance: "Then please ask the fourth girl for help. If she is unwilling, I will never force her."

"Wait a minute, I'll find her." Su Yunwan turned around and waved to the shadow guard, asking him to call someone.

Looking at the neat and tidy woman in front of him, Chu Yi's eyes were filled with smiles, "How about I avoid it first?"

"Let's see if Shanshan needs it first." Qin Ruoshan has always been soft on the outside but strong on the inside. She has her own opinion in her heart. Rather than passing words around, she would rather let the two of them talk to each other.

As soon as Qin Ruoshan, who was cooking, heard that Su Yunwan was looking for her, she immediately put down her work and came over to look for her.

She and Chu Yi greeted each other, and then listened quietly to Su Yunwan's explanation of the Chu family's marriage proposal and the Chu Yi brothers.

Qin Ruoshan's face was flushed, she just lowered her head and thought for a moment, then thought about the benefits of the cooperation between the Qin and Chu families, raised her head and said, "If it is for our family, I am willing to marry."

Su Yunwan frowned: "Our family does not need to sacrifice women to get married. The Qin and Chu families have already agreed on cooperation. You only need to follow your own heart."

Qin Ruoshan glanced at Chu Yi, bit her lips and said, "I can't bear to leave my parents. I want to wait until I get to Youzhou City and my brother is engaged before we talk about marriage."

She doesn't really just want to be filial to her parents without thinking about her own future.

It is true that Mr. Chu Sixth is too outstanding. When she is with him, she will feel inferior and feel that she is not worthy of him. With his younger brother in the middle, even if the two get married, there will be a gap in their hearts and they can only treat each other as guests.

Chu Yi was extremely surprised after hearing Qin Ruoshan's words. He never thought that he would be rejected by a woman.

Even though he had mixed feelings, Chu Yi still did not forget to fight for his younger brother: "If you like my seventh brother, I can ask my parents to propose marriage."

Qin Ruoshan looked down at the ground and shook her head, "My family's crisis has not been resolved, so I have no intention of talking about marriage."

The handsome man who kindly gave him an umbrella in the rainstorm left a deep mark on her heart with just one look.

But firstly, the marriage partner sent by the Chu family was not him, and secondly, she knew the power of the imperial power and never ignored her family's crisis.

The further away from the capital, the more likely his family will be assassinated. If he couldn't escape the disaster, the Seventh Young Master would definitely be sad once the engagement was arranged, so why bother harming him.

Su Yunwan and Chu Yi looked at each other, and without the need for words, they could see in each other's eyes that the other party understood Qin Ruoshan's thoughts.

Chu Yi smiled freely: "In times of crisis, it is really not appropriate to talk about personal affairs between children."

Su Yunwan nodded in agreement: "Then it's not too late to think about it again when you settle down later."

Gaining understanding from the two of them, Qin Ruoshan was moved to tears.

If it were anyone else, she wouldn't even ask her how she felt. And because of the need for marriage, she couldn't refuse the marriage, so she could only marry as soon as she said it.

The three of them walked back talking and laughing. When Qin Ruolan in the camp saw them, she almost tore the silk handkerchief in her hand.

She walked over and said with a forced smile: "Sixth Young Master, my food is almost ready. You can stay and eat together."

Chu Yi's expression instantly became indifferent and distant: "Thank you, my family is still waiting for me to go back. Say goodbye."

He nodded towards Su Yunwan and Qin Ruoshan and strode away.

"What were you talking about with the Sixth Young Master just now?" Qin Ruolan put away her smile and looked gloomy.

Qin Ruoshan said perfunctorily: "It's just a small talk. I'm going to see if the food is ready."

Su Yunwan was the only one left at the scene, but she didn't bother to pay attention and walked away directly.

Qin Ruolan looked at her back, her thoughts changing rapidly.

When Chu Shao and his wife came to visit just now, she was stopped by the shadow guards and did not hear the discussion between them.

Now seeing Su Yunwan asking Chu Yi and Qin Ruoshan to meet, and then thinking of Mrs. Chu's love for Qin Ruoshan, Qin Ruolan suddenly panicked when she thought of some possibility.

"Brother, big brother!" Qin Ruolan lifted up her skirt and ran past Su Yunwan, heading straight for Qin Junyi.

When she arrived in front of Qin Junyi, she gasped and asked: "Brother, are Master Chu and the others coming over to get married?"

Qin Junyi looked coldly: "It's none of your business."

Qin Ruolan grabbed his arm tightly, "Are they the Sixth Young Master and Shanshan?"

"I said, it's none of your business." Qin Junyi spoke coldly, but did not throw away her hand.

"I don't agree!" Qin Ruolan screamed, and then begged: "Brother, please help me, you must help me!"

At this time, Mrs. Pei, who heard the commotion, came over, hugged Qin Ruolan to calm her down, and said, "Brother Yi, mother has something to say."

Qin Junyi agreed and was about to start when he saw Su Yunwan walking over.

Su Yunwan leaned into his ear and whispered a few words,

When Qin Junyi learned that his cousin didn't want to get married, he looked at Qin Ruoshan who was looking over here and nodded to her in agreement.

Qin Ruoshan raised a smile and blessed her body to show her gratitude.

After Qin Junyi left, everyone in the fourth room who heard Qin Ruolan's shouting immediately came to Qin Ruoshan and asked about the marriage.

When they learned that Qin Ruoshan refused, both Lin and his wife called her stupid.

If Chu Yi is missed, there will be no other son who can be as outstanding as him.

In addition, they also worry that marriage will undermine cooperation.

The Chu family is now a prisoner, but its power is so great that even Zhong Wei is afraid of it. If they can join forces with powerful forces, their safety will be even more guaranteed.

Now that the marriage fails, it will inevitably affect the relationship between the two families.

At this moment, Qin Junyu, who had been silent, stammered: "Father, mother, can my son marry a girl from the Chu family?"
