Cao Biao stood up slowly and said sternly: "I would like to go to Shangguan's house with Zhiyuan to discuss the engagement in detail."

"Thank you, second uncle, for making it happen!" Cao Zhiyuan looked happy.

"Second brother, thank you for your hard work." Cao Guan nodded.

"Everyone, wait for our good news!"

Cao Biao hugged his fists and left immediately with Cao Zhiyuan.

Cao Guan watched the two people go away, thoughtfully.

At this moment, in a certain woman's boudoir.

Concubine Cao Xuan closed her eyes and lay quietly on the bed.

Lu Chen sat next to her and applied medicine carefully for her.

The wound on Concubine Cao Xuan's face was not too deep. After treatment with a special ointment, she has recovered significantly.

"Sister! There's good news!"

At this time, Cao Anan suddenly opened the door and walked in, looking a little excited.

"Oh? What's the good news?"

Concubine Cao Xuan still closed her eyes, enjoying Lu Chen's careful care.

"In the family meeting just now, the second uncle proposed to change the marriage, and then Cao Zhiyuan volunteered to stand up and say that he would marry Shangguanhong on your behalf, and everyone expressed support!" Cao An'an said happily.

"Cao Zhiyuan is going to marry Shangguanhong?"

Hearing this, Concubine Cao Xuan sat up immediately and said in surprise: "An'an, are you sure you heard correctly?"

"Of course! I can hear you clearly!"

Cao An'an nodded heavily: "Now the second uncle has taken Cao Zhiyuan to Shangguan's house for negotiation. As long as Shangguan Hong is willing to agree, then we don't have to worry!"

"Great!"

Concubine Cao Xuan looked happy: "Anyway, Cao Zhiyuan likes glory and wealth, so it would be most suitable for her to marry Shangguanhong!"

"That's right! You don't have to be wronged, Cao Zhiyuan can get his wish, and we don't have to fight with the officials. It can be said to be the best of both worlds!" Cao Anan said with a smile.

"You two, don't be too happy. I'm afraid things are not that simple." Lu Chen suddenly poured a basin of cold water down.

"What do you mean? Isn't it a good thing that my sister doesn't have to marry Shangguanhong?" Cao Anan was a little surprised.

"Of course it's a good thing, but the key question is, will Shangguanhong agree?"

Lu Chen said meaningfully: "Although I have only met Shangguan Hong once, I can see that he is a very arrogant and conceited person. The decisions made by such people will not be changed easily."

As soon as these words came out, the two sisters immediately frowned.

"You mean Shangguanhong won't agree to change the marriage?" Concubine Cao Xuan asked tentatively.

"It's hard."

Lu Chen put away the ointment, handed Concubine Cao Xuan a cup of tea, and said calmly: "If he wants to change his marriage, then of course there is no problem, but he will never tolerate others making the decision to change his marriage without authorization."

"No way? Is Shangguan Hong really that stubborn?" Cao Anan didn't believe it.

"This is not stubbornness, but the superiority of being a genius. To put it simply, he can make the decision, but you can't." Lu Chen explained.

"It's true. What if Cao Zhiyuan succeeds?" Cao Anan was quite dissatisfied.

"It's best if you succeed, but you'd better not have too high expectations." Lu Chen didn't finish his words.

"An'an, go to the meeting hall and wait immediately. If there is any news, please notify me immediately." Concubine Cao Xuan warned.

"it is good."

Cao Anan nodded, turned and left.

Dusk.

Cao Biao and Cao Zhiyuan finally returned to their families. It's just that his face doesn't look good.

"Second brother, how are you? Does Shangguanhong agree?"

Seeing the two people walking into the meeting hall, Cao Jun immediately stood up and asked.

"What a promise!"

Cao Biao said with an indignant look: "That Shangguanhong is just a piece of cake! We talked hard and offered various conditions, but he just refused to agree and insisted on marrying Concubine Cao Xuan.

He also threatened us that on the wedding day, if the bride is not Concubine Cao Xuan, then he will lead his army and destroy our Cao family! "

As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
