Chapter 362 - 362 358 This is the Will of Heaven
?Chapter 362: Chapter 358 This is the Will of Heaven Chapter 362: Chapter 358 This is the Will of Heaven The Minister of Revenue listened to his daughter’s words and said only, “We’ll see what the Prince An Residence decides. If they want to retract the betrothal, it can only be the Prince An Residence that does it. If we were to retract the betrothal, that would be defying the imperial command and disrespecting authority.”
Xuanyuan Jie was the Emperor’s own nephew and the Empress Dowager’s own grandson. It was most appropriate for him to speak with the Empress Dowager and explain the situation to retract the marriage.
Although defying the imperial command is disrespectful, family matters can always be discussed among ourselves. Moreover, marriage is a private affair. If it’s the Prince An Residence that retracts the betrothal, it can be considered a family matter.
Gao Yan also knew that they couldn’t initiate the retraction of the betrothal. The charge of defying the imperial command and disrespecting authority was not something their family could bear, and it would also offend the Prince An Residence.
If her father dared retract the betrothal, he could forget about being promoted.
The most important thing was that, with such an unexpected boon from heaven, her father was probably secretly thrilled, right?
This was a windfall they had chanced upon. If he were thinking of retracting it, her father wouldn’t be the Minister of Revenue, but rather the minor Chief of Honglu Temple.
The Minister of Revenue was always shrewd and calculating, keen on taking advantage of situations, while the minor Chief of Honglu Temple was one known for singing well, dancing well, and being adept at socializing.
Gao Yan thought of Xuanyuan Jie’s devastated appearance and felt somewhat assured he would likely seek to retract the betrothal.
He would go retract the betrothal, wouldn’t he?
She didn’t want to get married!
To get married and share one man with several women, and to help the man to take care of his entire household, how was that beneficial?
Not to mention the Minister of Revenue, the Minister’s wife was actually quite happy. Both sons of the Prince An Residence were quite fine, and the Prince An’s wife was personally chosen by the Empress Dowager as her daughter-in-law; her character was also very good.
