The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis

Dongfang Ye was wearing a white brocade robe with a yellow edge and a white jade pendant around his waist. He walked in from the door in an elegant and graceful manner, holding a folding fan in his hand.

He looked very confident, with a smile on his face, as if he was here to get a valuable item that he had been longing for for a long time, and he was determined to get it.

He had no doubt about it.

Therefore, when he saw that there was not only Xie Lin in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, but also the elders of the Xie family and even Wen Tingshen, he was completely stunned.

In particular, the Censor Wen Tingshen was still reading out the thick gift list, while the servants were bringing in the items on the list, box by box, and having them counted by the people from the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion.

There was everything from gold, silver, cloth, pearls and agates, it was truly dazzling.

"The Second Madam, the Young Lady, the Fourth Young Master, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and Lord Yuan have arrived." The doorman trotted forward to announce.

Huai Qi and Huai Wei, who were following the prince, frowned when they saw the busy scene in the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion.

Huai Qi shouted directly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"

Everyone stopped what they were doing in an instant. The Second Madam, Chu Heyi, Xie Lin, and the others all looked towards the Crown Prince and quickly knelt down to pay their respects.

Needless to say, the servants and maids present all knelt on the ground. The noise and bustle just now disappeared in an instant, leaving only silent silence.

In this short period of time, Dongfang Ye's face had become very ugly and gloomy, but he still held on to the last bit of luck and asked, "Second Madam, what are you doing in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion?"

The Second Lady said, "In reply to His Royal Highness, Prime Minister, we are in love with each other and I am here today to propose marriage and offer betrothal."

Propose a marriage!

Dongfang Ye's heart suddenly tightened and his anger flared up. His eyes fell on Chu Heyi and Xie Lin. He wished his eyes could turn into sharp blades to chop them into pieces and feed them to the dogs!

Proposing a marriage and offering a betrothal gift are two completely different things, and they need to be carried out on different auspicious days. Xie Lin, on the other hand, not only proposed the marriage before him, but also offered the betrothal gift on the same day.

Xie Lin didn't take what he said to Xie Lin before to heart! Dongfang Ye's fists were clenched so hard that his knuckles creaked, and his lips were pursed into a line!

The prince was furious!

The yard seemed to be covered with frost!

In addition, the rain had just stopped and the sky was still overcast, making people feel even more suffocated.

I don't know how much time passed, maybe only a short time, the second wife broke the silence and said: "I learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Yuan were visiting today. I have already ordered people to prepare the best tea and snacks. Please move to the inner room, Your Highness and Lord Yuan."

She did not respond to the Crown Prince's anger, nor did she guess the purpose of the Crown Prince bringing the Grand Tutor to her house. She simply entertained the Crown Prince and the Grand Tutor according to the etiquette of hospitality.

Dongfang Ye stood there without moving, and Yuan Guanyu also looked at the scene in front of him without any intention of speaking.

He originally thought that it was a foregone conclusion that the Crown Prince would marry Chu Heyi as his Crown Princess, but he never imagined that such a thing would actually happen!

Xie Lin is so bold. He was just promoted to prime minister by the emperor, but he dared to snatch the prince's marriage. Who gave him the courage!

Dongfang Ye's cold eyes swept across everyone, finally settling on Chu Heyi, "Sister Heyi, a few days ago, I said that I admired you and wanted to marry you as my crown princess.

"I told you that I would come to the main gate of the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion to propose marriage to you soon. You said you would wait for me and gave me the earrings you wore that day as a token of your love. Why did you agree to Prime Minister Xie's proposal today?"

When he spoke the latter part, Dongfang Ye was gritting his teeth, and almost every word was filled with hatred and anger. He wished he could burn everyone in front of him into dust to relieve the hatred in his heart.

He had never been teased like this in his entire life, and no one had ever dared to get what he wanted first!

If Chu Heyi could not become his Crown Princess and insisted on being Xie Lin's Prime Minister's wife, he would not mind destroying Chu Heyi with his own hands.

Dongfang Ye opened his palm, and under the gloomy sky, everyone saw a light green earring lying on his fair palm, so obvious and so dazzling.

Nanny Rui and Xianyue were stunned, especially Xianyue. She was in charge of Chu Heyi's clothes and accessories. A few days ago, she discovered that Chu Heyi had lost an earring, but she couldn't find it.

Chu Heyi also didn't need a pair of earrings, so she told her not to worry about it and the matter passed. As a result, the earrings now appeared in the prince's hands.

In an instant, everyone looked at Chu Heyi.

Her personal belongings appeared in the hands of the prince, and coupled with what the prince said, people could not help but believe that she and His Royal Highness the Prince had already privately promised to spend their lives together.

The prince approached Chu Heyi and stood in front of her. "Since you agreed to let me come to your house to propose marriage, why did you agree to Prime Minister Xie? Am I late? Or is it that your second mother and your fourth brother agreed to your marriage with Prime Minister Xie, but you didn't agree? As long as you say it, no one can separate us!"

Chu Heyi, who was kneeling on the ground, slowly stood up and looked at the earring in his hand. It was indeed the one she had lost.

"Were you the one outside the Zichen Palace that day?" The words were already on the tip of Chu Heyi's tongue, but she suppressed them in time.

She couldn't say it. If she did, then there would be no way to clear the air between her and the prince. Even if she went back to explain to Xie Lin and Xie Lin didn't mind, it would still be bad for her and Xie Lin's reputation.

She always thought that what happened that day was an illusion caused by her excessive desire for Xie Lin to wake up.

It turned out that Dongfang Ye came when she was unconscious that day. Based on Dongfang Ye's behavior, it was hard for Chu Heyi not to suspect that Dongfang Ye did it on purpose.

After she fell into a coma, he secretly took away her earrings as a token of their "private marriage".

It seems that Dongfang Ye will never give up her identity as the Princess of Cheng'an County, the power of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, and the military power of the general.

Dongfang Ye was the one who plotted against her first, so don't blame her for being rude.

Chu Heyi said calmly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince has misunderstood. Lord Xie's proposal of marriage was approved by my Second Mother and Fourth Brother, and I also nodded in agreement. I have been attracted to Lord Xie for a long time and am willing to marry him."

She held her head high and spoke directly, without hiding anything or being embarrassed. She acknowledged her feelings and defended the marriage she and Xie Lin had just arranged.

However, her words and actions were like a slap in the face to the prince, leaving him no dignity at all.

The prince's eyes suddenly turned red with anger, and murderous intent suddenly appeared in his eyes: "If so, how do you explain the token you gave me?"

Chu Heyi asked back, "How did this earring come into the hands of the prince? Doesn't the prince know about it?"

Suddenly, a sharp sound passed by everyone's ears.

When everyone looked closely, they saw Dongfang Ye pulling out the long sword from the hand of his personal guard Huai Wei and pointing it at Xie Lin's throat!
