Cao Biao stood up slowly and said sternly: "I would like to go to Shangguan's house with Zhiyuan to discuss the engagement in detail."

"Thank you so much, uncle!" Cao Zhiyuan looked happy.

"Second brother, thank you for the hard work." Cao Guan nodded.

"Everyone, wait for our good news!"

Cao Biao hugged his fists and left immediately with Cao Zhiyuan.

Cao Guan watched the two people go away, thoughtfully.

At this moment, in a woman's boudoir.

Concubine Cao Xuan closed her eyes and lay quietly on the bed.

Lu Chen sat next to her and carefully applied medicine to her.

The wound on Concubine Cao Xuan's face was not too deep, and she has recovered significantly after being treated with special ointment.

"Sister! There's good news!"

At this time, Cao Anan suddenly opened the door and walked in, looking a little excited.

"Oh? What's the good news?"

Concubine Cao Xuan still closed her eyes, enjoying Lu Chen's careful care.

"In the family meeting just now, the second uncle proposed to change the marriage, and then Cao Zhiyuan volunteered to stand up and say that he would marry Shangguanhong on your behalf, and everyone expressed support!" Cao An'an said happily.

"Cao Zhiyuan is going to marry Shangguan Hong?"

Hearing this, Concubine Cao Xuan sat up immediately and said in surprise: "An'an, are you sure you heard it right?"

"Of course! I can hear you clearly!"

Cao Anan nodded heavily: "Now the second uncle has taken Cao Zhiyuan to Shangguan's house for negotiation. As long as Shangguan Hong is willing to agree, then we don't have to worry!"

"Very good!"

Concubine Cao Xuan looked happy: "Anyway, Cao Zhiyuan likes glory and wealth, so it would be most suitable for her to marry Shangguanhong!"

"That's right! You don't have to be wronged, Cao Zhiyuan can get his wish, and we don't have to fight with the officials. It can be said to be the best of both worlds!" Cao Anan said with a smile.

"You two, don't be too happy, I'm afraid things may not be that simple." Lu Chen suddenly poured a basin of cold water on it.

"What do you mean? Isn't it a good thing that my sister doesn't have to marry Shangguan Hong?" Cao Anan was a little surprised.

"Of course it's a good thing, but the key question is, will Shangguanhong agree?"

Lu Chen said meaningfully: "Although I have only met Shangguan Hong once, I can tell that he is a very arrogant and conceited person. The decisions made by such people will not be changed easily."

As soon as these words came out, the two sisters immediately frowned.

"You mean Shangguanhong won't agree to change the marriage?" Concubine Cao Xuan asked tentatively.

"It's hard."

Lu Chen put away the ointment, handed Concubine Cao Xuan a cup of tea, and said calmly: "If he wants to change his marriage, then of course there is no problem, but he will never tolerate others making the decision without authorization to change his marriage."

"No way? Is Shangguan Hong really that stubborn?" Cao Anan didn't believe it.

"This is not stubbornness, but the superiority of being a genius. To put it simply, he can make the decision, but you can't." Lu Chen explained.

"It's true. What if Cao Zhiyuan can succeed?" Cao Anan was quite dissatisfied.

"It would be best to succeed, but you'd better not have too high expectations." Lu Chen didn't finish his words.

"An'an, you go to the meeting hall and wait immediately. If there is any news, let me know immediately." Concubine Cao Xuan warned.

"good."

Cao Anan nodded, turned and left.

At dusk.

Cao Biao and Cao Zhiyuan finally returned to their families. But their faces were not very good-looking.

"Second brother, how about it? Does Shangguanhong agree?"

Seeing the two people walking into the meeting hall, Cao Jun immediately stood up and asked.

"What a promise!"

Cao Biao said with an indignant look: "That Shangguanhong is just a piece of cake! We talked hard and offered various conditions, but he refused and insisted on marrying Concubine Cao Xuan.

He also threatened us that on the wedding day, if the bride is not Concubine Cao Xuan, then he will lead his army and destroy our Cao family!"
