Chapter 398 Rejection
Chapter 398 Rejection
Han Han said with an unnatural expression: "Master Li, as long as Shiyun agrees, the palace will definitely follow the customs and do everything well."
Lord Li stared at the eldest son with wide eyes and said, "Are you still getting married secretly? Haven't you asked the opinions of both parents?"
Hanhan: "My parents definitely have no objection, it all depends on what Lord Li thinks?"
Upon hearing this, Lord Li's expression suddenly became even uglier: "The Li family is just a small family, we really can't afford to marry into the royal family, please take back your feelings, young master!"
Hanhan's eyes widened when he heard this: "Master Li, you reject me? You look down on me?"
Upon hearing this, Lord Li's face turned pale instantly. He had never seen anyone so straightforward, nor had he ever seen anyone so shameless.
"It's because the Li family can't afford to marry into the Wang family. I prefer to find a family of equal status for Shiyun, so as to avoid the reputation of clinging to the powerful and wealthy."
Han Han's face turned ugly when he heard this: "This is the first time I have heard such a ridiculous statement."
Upon hearing this, Lord Li's expression naturally became even uglier.
"Please forgive me, young master."
Hanhan glanced at Li Shiyun, then suddenly stood up and left with a dark face.
Li Shiyun looked at Hanhan's angry figure and felt mixed emotions.
Lord Li: "It's obvious that this boy has been spoiled since childhood. He doesn't even know the most basic rules. How can he propose marriage to the girl directly?"
"Dad will never let you marry such an arrogant person."
Li Shiyun naturally did not dare to disobey her father's order, so she had to nod quickly.
When Hanhan returned to the palace, his face looked extremely ugly.
As soon as he returned to the palace, he locked himself in the room.
When Jiang Sujin heard the servant's report, she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
"What's wrong with this kid?"
Shen Yanfeng: "Hasn't he already beaten Yu Shichang? Why is he still unhappy?"
Jiang Sujin: "After he beat Yu Shichang, he went to Li's house again. It seems that he must have encountered something unpleasant in Li's house."
Shen Yanfeng: "He is such a young man, he definitely doesn't know how to restrain himself. Lord Li will definitely not have a good attitude towards him either."
Jiang Sujin: "I'll go take a look!"
Shen Yanfeng: "I will go too!"
Jiang Sujin: "Don't go, or he won't tell you when he sees you."
Shen Yanfeng curled his lips when he heard that, but he didn't insist on going.
When Jiang Sujin entered Hanhan's room, Hanhan was curled up in bed, looking very depressed.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Sujin put her hand on his leg.
Hanhan was silent for a while and then said, "Mom, am I not good enough?"
Jiang Sujin: "Why do you say that?"
Hanhan: "I said I wanted to marry Li Shiyun, but Lord Li refused."
Jiang Sujin: "You kid, the marriage proposal is made by the parents and the matchmaker. You come here without taking anything and want to marry someone's daughter. You're lucky that they don't scold you and kick you out!"
When Hanhan heard this, his expression instantly changed and he sat up immediately.
"Mother, do you mean that if you send a matchmaker with the betrothal gifts, Mr. Li will agree?"
Jiang Sujin heard this and said with an unnatural expression: "Not necessarily, but at least it's better than what you are doing."
When Hanhan heard this, his eyes fell into deep sorrow again.
"That's not necessarily true. Lord Li looked as if he wanted to eat me. How could he be willing to marry his daughter to me?"
Jiang Sujin: "Everyone has different ideas. We can't change other people's ideas."
"But mom is willing to help you try. We have tried our best. Even if it doesn't work in the end, we have no regrets."
Hanhan glanced at Jiang Sujin, and then he couldn't help but nodded slightly.
When Shen Yanfeng heard that Jiang Sujin was going to Li's house, he did not agree at first, but after Jiang Sujin scolded him, he had no choice but to agree.
The next day, Jiang Sujin came to the gate of Li's house with the most valuable four treasures of the study.
When Lord Li heard that the princess had arrived, he naturally hurried over to greet her warmly.
Jiang Sujin brought the matchmaker and betrothal gifts and went straight into Li's house.
Lord Li: "I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Princess!"
Jiang Sujin: "Master Li looks more and more radiant."
Upon hearing this, Lord Li suddenly looked unnatural and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind."
He brought the princess into the front hall of the mansion.
Jiang Sujin: "Master Li, I am ignorant. I wonder if I offended you yesterday?"
Upon hearing this, Lord Li immediately laughed dryly and said, "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. The eldest son is at a young age and can no longer hide things. I have also been through this age, so I naturally understand."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin immediately said with an unnatural expression: "Hanhan is indeed a child at heart, and his personality is simple."
"After spending a few days with Shiyun, I felt that we were compatible, and I liked this girl very much, so I brought the matchmaker with me."
"Don't worry, Lord Li. Hanhan may look reckless, but he actually has a kind heart. You don't have to worry about his behavior."
Lord Li said with an unnatural expression: "My lady, the eldest son is naturally excellent."
"But after what happened earlier, if Shiyun marries the eldest son again, wouldn't it be confirmed that she is trying to get rid of the infamy of marrying into the Yu family in order to gain power?"
Jiang Sujin suddenly forgot about this, and this reason really left her speechless.
"But Hanhan really likes Shiyun. Does Lord Li really want to let Shiyun miss out on her good marriage just for some false reputation?"
Lord Li: "Marriage is destined by heaven and cannot be forced. Since there are so many obstacles between the eldest master and Shiyun, it proves that they are not a natural match."
Jiang Sujin couldn't help but sigh when she heard this: "If Lord Li insists on rejecting this marriage, I naturally can't force Lord Li."
"Everyone has their own destiny. Lord Li is indifferent to fame and fortune, and he certainly doesn't want his daughter to marry into a wealthy family."
"I sincerely hope that Miss Li can find someone who shares her passion with her, so that Master Li's efforts will not be in vain."
Lord Li: "Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty."
Jiang Sujin curled the corners of her mouth, then stood up and left.
Jiang Sujin knew that Hanhan and Li Shiyun would never be together.
Hanhan can't pass the test of Lord Li, so it will be useless even if he wins Li Shiyun's favor.
Jiang Sujin returned to the palace with a gloomy face. As soon as Hanhan saw Jiang Sujin's expression, he knew that this matter would definitely not succeed.
Jiang Sujin: "Hanhan, mother will look for someone else for you. I will definitely find a woman who is prettier and more talented than Li Shiyun."
Hanhan didn't say anything, but turned around and left.
He originally didn't feel that he had any feelings for Li Shiyun, but after experiencing this series of events, he realized that he had fallen deeply in love with her.
He doesn't know whether others are good or not, but he knows that she is good.
