Chapter 14

Ouyang Yuanqing, who was sitting in the seat of honor, put down the teacup in his hand and said coldly, "Previously, your Liu family shamelessly insisted on marrying your daughter to me, but now that that trash Jiang Huan is claiming that your daughter is something he doesn't want, I don't plan to take it anymore. Otherwise, others will say that I'm eating the leftovers of his Jiang family!"

When Liu Fenghan heard this, she abruptly stood up. It was hard to tell if it was disappointment or despair.

"You!" Before he could finish his words, a loud shout was heard.

"Impudent!"

Following which, a middle-aged man in a simple gown walked out from behind the screen. He was born with unbound hair, and his long silvery-black hair was meticulously combed. His resolute face carried a gentle smile, and he held a book in his hand.

Ouyang Yuanqing jumped down from his chair and knelt on the ground when he heard this. "Your son greets father!"

The middle-aged man with a square face and an official's robe saw the newcomer and hastily lifted his robe to kneel on the ground, bowing to him. "This lowly official is the Governor of the Northern Capital Prefecture, Liu Chengwei. I pay my respects to the late Shang Shuquan!"

Liu Fenghan followed suit and bowed as well. "Fenghan greets uncle!"

The guest was none other than the current first-grade official, Shang Shu Province's President, Ouyang Fei.

Ouyang Fei did not even bother with his son, Ouyang Yuanqing, who was kneeling at the side. He walked up to Liu Cheng and supported him with his hands.

"Lord Liu, please get up!" "You and I are officials in the same court, why must we bow so low?"

As he said this, he looked towards Liu Fenghan and said gently, "Fenghan, stand up as well."

Only then did the Liu father and daughter stand up, but they still didn't dare meet Ouyang Fei's gaze.

Ouyang Fei said as he turned around and walked to the main seat and looked at the Liu father and daughter.

"Please take a seat, Feng Han. Uncle has already given you the Cloud Water Sword, which is enough to show the importance my Ouyang Family attaches to your daughter-in-law. Yuan Qing is still young, so you have to be considerate when you speak."

"Lord Liu, no matter what the outsider says, my Ouyang Family and your Liu Family are definitely engaged. I, Ouyang Fei, have always kept my word."

"As for you." At this point, Ouyang Fei fiercely said as he shot a glance at Ouyang Yuanqing who was kneeling on the ground.

"Hurry up and apologize to Uncle Liu and Feng Han!"

When Ouyang Yuanqing heard this, he hurriedly turned his head towards his father, Ouyang Fei, and looked towards the Liu Family. From beginning to end, he didn't even raise his head or get up.

Ouyang Yuanqing said, "Please forgive me, Uncle Liu. My nephew got angry and said a few dirty words, and I'm here to apologize."

"Seeing this, Liu Chengyi quickly stopped her." Young Master Ouyang is being too courteous, too courteous. "

Ouyang Fei looked at the wounded Liu Fenghan and said, "The young master of Field Marshal Jiang's family has attacked us too heavily. Lord Liu, it's getting late, hurry and bring Feng Han back to rest. I will personally pay her a visit some other day. At that time, both families will sit down to discuss the marriage between our two children."

At these words, Liu Chengyi bowed to Ouyang Fei with Liu Fenghan in tow. "Then this official will take his leave."

After he finished speaking, she and Liu Fenghan walked out of the manor, arriving outside the gates. As they entered the carriage, Liu Chengxin turned around to look at the tall entrance face of the Ouyang manor.

Liu Chengyi thought to himself, could it be that I've done something wrong? Back in the Jiang family, as a second rank Prefecture Overseer, I was able to sit at the same seat as a first rank Generalissimo and have the same seniority as him, how did it turn out like this?! Was it because the two parties in the imperial court were rejecting the general, that the emperor had a deep suspicion of the Jiang family due to the heavy military power of the Jiang family, or was it because Jiang Huan had no future on the path of martial dao?

"Sigh ~ ~" With a sigh, Liu Chengyi boarded the horse carriage and entered it. With a raise of the whip, the carriage slowly drove away from the Ouyang manor.

After the Liu father and daughter left, Ouyang Fei slowly opened the book and said, "Stand up."

Ouyang Yuanqing hurriedly got up as if he had received an amnesty. He used his sleeves to dust off the dust on his knees.

"Father, aren't you being too polite to them? If I really do marry Liu Fenghan, won't I be a joke to the people in the capital?"

Ouyang Fei didn't even raise his head as he continued to look at the book in the book, but he slowly said, "Although the Liu family is small, it is still a piece of meat. As for the younger generation of the Jiang family, we don't need to care about them at all. If my Ouyang family really kicked Liu Fenghan out, then the world would ridicule me for being ungrateful."

"Now that we have given the Liu Clan a reassurance pill, we will show our magnanimity and not hold a grudge against the younger generation of the Jiang Clan."

Ouyang Fei's tone changed.

"How about Jianghe at the Royal Academy?"

"We and a few other sons and daughters of officials were often together, so we were on good terms with each other." Ouyang Yuanqing said.

Ouyang Fei nodded.

"That's great. Jiang Zhenfeng had abandoned his baby at the Song River near the borders of the imperial city, where the army of 300 thousand soldiers had broken through. He had raised his adopted son every day, and his godson was even more talented than his two sons."

"My eldest son is a mediocre man, my third son Jiang Huan is a complete trash. In the future, I can only hand over the military power to my godson, Jiang He. Since he is my foster son, we can use a little trick in the future to sow discord between father and son. When that time comes, we can recruit Jiang He as our new cavalry."

"Right now, the Emperor is increasingly suspicious and suspicious of the Jiang family. As long as we keep the news to the emperor and keep the Jiang family on the edge, our plan will be much easier."

Ouyang Yuanqing nodded repeatedly.
