Chapter 1000: Chapter 998: Unstable Fetal Energy

However, Su Qingzhi heard the undercurrent in his words, he deliberately mentioned Su Hao’s current deployment to drag him down with it.

How could the leader of an army, holding the commander’s seal, be an irresponsible scoundrel?

Such talk would reach the front lines, and even before battle broke out, they would be ridiculed mercilessly by the enemy!

The commander of the Great Cheng Dynasty, to be seen as so petty and small!

Qin Wan was somewhat angry, “General Lu, the affair between Miss Lu and Su Hao is a domestic matter, while Su Hao, as the commander, is dealing with a matter of state! How can state affairs and family affairs be confused as one?”

He was threatening the Marquis’s Manor to accept Lu Ying!

Because Lu Chongming had a good reputation among the people and the impression of always being upright, he continued with candor, “To cultivate oneself, regulate the family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world, if Su Hao as the commander can’t even handle cultivating the self and regulating the family, how can he bring peace to the world for the emperor, wage wars, and flatten Qi State?”

“General Lu speaks the truth!”

“Yes, this young general can’t just wrong a lady and then shirk responsibility by going off to war, right?”

“Ah, Miss Lu is so pitiable, left to ride in the bridal sedan to his door by herself!”

“Such devoted love from Miss Lu!”

The citizens buzzed with conversation, most expressing dissatisfaction with the Marquis’s Manor and Su Hao, as if Su Hao were a heartless, faithless scoundrel!

Inside the bridal sedan, Lu Ying heard everything outside clearly, her lips curving slightly, today, this Marquis’s Manor, she was determined to enter!

As long as the public applied pressure, with the deployment imminent, for the sake of the soldiers’ morale, Su Hao would have to accept her, no matter how unwilling he was!

The crowd of citizens grew larger, their voices louder, Qin Wan, standing beside Su Qingzhi, said with difficulty, “Father, if we continue at a standstill, the people and the officials will only talk more about our Marquis’s Manor and Hao’er, not only ruining Hao’er’s reputation but even affecting this deployment!”

If the troops are not united, and there is discord between the officers, the battle will falter, and Su Hao will really be ruined!

The century-old reputation of the Marquis’s Manor would also be damaged, and it would even affect Su Yingxue, who had not yet been named empress.

Su Qingzhi’s fists clenched tightly within his long sleeves, his eyes as sharp as a hawk’s, lightning-fast, “Lu Chongming, do you think I, Su Qingzhi, and the Marquis’s Manor, would be afraid of you?”

What kind of dangerous battlefield had Su Qingzhi not seen in his life, what big storm had he not faced, but there was something he hated most!

And that was being threatened!

Seeing the situation, Lu Chongming immediately knelt down, “Old General, please calm your anger! This general has no intention of threatening you, I just want my daughter to have a place to settle down before joining the commander in the deployment without worrying, this matter… even the emperor is aware of it.”

Su Qingzhi’s face changed suddenly, “The emperor knows?”

The bridal sedan was brought into the Marquis’s Manor, Qin Wan arranged for Lu Ying to be temporarily placed in another courtyard, to wait for Su Hao’s return to discuss how to deal with her.

By the time she had finished all this, Su Han had returned and Su Yingxue had already learned of Lu Ying’s entry into the manor.

She hastily grabbed Qin Wan’s wrist, “Great Aunt, how could you let Lu Ying enter the mansion? She is forcing herself in to become my brother’s wife, but my brother doesn’t like her! What right does she have?”

“Yingxue, don’t be anxious, and don’t agitate your pregnancy! You’re already not stable.”

Concerned about Su Yingxue’s health, Qin Wan hurriedly supported her, fearing that she would become too agitated.

Patting Su Yingxue’s back, Su Han said, “Yingxue, this is not something my mother can decide. If Lu Ying has entered the house, it must be with grandfather’s agreement. Grandfather understands the big picture and has more concerns than you and I. Let’s go see grandfather first. Hao’er will be back soon, we will resolve this matter together, but don’t neglect the little one in your belly, he’s a spirited one.”
