Chapter two hundred and eighty seventh

Guo Zhiyuan had already taken off his face and said with a smile: My father-in-law is probably wrong. Miss Wan'er has made great contributions to the court in Fujian. How did she become abducted by a son-in-law? It's nothing, just because she is afraid that it will damage Miss Wan'er's reputation if it is reported. Then the son-in-law will be dead!

This just hit Chu Honggang's weakness. Chu Honggang was the most proud. He had been hiding the news that Chu Wan'er ran away from home before, so he actually didn't want to make the whole city know. If the whole city knew that the daughter of the Yin family of Shuntian Prefecture had eloped with another man, the man has come to the door. How could Chu Honggang be able to bear such a big man? So although he was so angry that he had to suppress his anger and waved to Guo Zhiyuan with a dark face and said, "Let your subordinates retreat first, you follow me!" After that, he left angrily!

When Guo Zhiyuan heard this, he was overjoyed. As long as there was a conversation, it would mean that there was still a turning point. He quickly waved his hand and signaled his personal guards to withdraw from the Chu Mansion first. He chased Chu Honggang into the Chu Mansion study room. He originally wanted to be in the flower hall for hospitality, but Chu Honggang was afraid that a colleague from the court would come to visit and was shameless, so he met Guo Zhiyuan in the study room.

As soon as Chu Honggang entered the study, he sat down on the chair in the middle of the Taishi Chair, and did not hesitate to Guo Zhiyuan to sit. His chest was fluttering violently. It was obvious that Guo Zhiyuan was so angry that he looked at him. Guo Zhiyuan looked at him with a secret look and bowed his facelessly: Father-in-law

Stop! Chu Honggang quickly waved his hand to interrupt Guo Zhiyuan and said with a dark face: Guo Zhiyuan, let me tell you clearly, my Wan'er has been engaged to Xiao Youhan, the legitimate grandson of Xiao Shangshu (Xiao Daheng, Minister of Justice), and will get married soon. If you are tactful, I will not blame the past for the past. If you are entangled in this way, don't blame me for being rude!

Guo Zhiyuan was stunned when he heard this. Chu Honggang was determined to break up the couple. He even made a marriage for Chu Wan'er, and Chu Honggang was not completely a false threat. Xiao Daheng was in charge of the Ministry of Justice. In addition, Chu Honggang, the prefect of Shuntian, was easy to punish Guo Zhiyuan. After all, Guo Zhiyuan was unreasonable and made trouble in the mansion of Shuntian Prefecture, and injured so many yamen runners and the ministers of the Chu Prefecture. Even Emperor Wanli was not able to protect Guo Zhiyuan.

Moreover, Guo Zhiyuan's conditions are indeed not as good as Xiao Youhan. Xiao Daheng is a real-powerful figure in the court, and his power is far beyond Guo Zhengyu. Although Xiao Youhan is a bit of a playboy, he is also handsome and handsome, and has a very talented person. He learned about Yuan a few years ago. He might even win the top scorer in the future. He is much better than Guo Zhiyuan, a wild person who is not even a scholar. With Chu Honggang's face-loving and snobbish personality, he naturally prefers to choose Xiao Youhan as his son-in-law.

Now Guo Zhiyuan was a little confused. He could not fight against others in the background, but could not fight against others. How could he grab Chu Wan'er back? Suddenly, Guo Zhiyuan's mind flashed with an inspiration, and he remembered a joke he had heard before traveling through time. He said that there were three candidates for the family to choose a son-in-law. The first was that his father was a senior member of the country and had no different power in the local area. The second was a rich second generation with a billion-dollar property. The two came up and showed off, and the third was poor. When the two of them finished showing off, they silently took out a hospital inspection form and handed it to their future father-in-law. When the future father-in-law saw it, they immediately knelt down and had to marry their daughter to this poor and dumb.

Thinking of this, Guo Zhiyuan had an idea and smiled slightly and said: Father-in-law, I’m afraid this marriage will not be done, and someone will not agree. You should give up the marriage quickly!

Seeing that Guo Zhiyuan was not giving up, Chu Honggang was furious and slapped the table and said: It’s useless if anyone disagrees! The marriage between Wan'er and the Xiao family was a formal marriage between the media, and the betrothal gifts had been given long ago. Even the emperor cannot change it now. You should just give up this heart!

Guo Zhiyuan said slowly calmly: I'm afraid that the child in Wan'er's belly will not agree.

When Chu Honggang heard this, he felt that the stone was shaking and dizzy. A mouthful of old blood almost spurted out on the spot. He pointed at Guo Zhiyuan with a trembling hand and said tremblingly: You, you actually did such a shameless thing. I am really angry! He didn't think about Guo Zhiyuan being a lie to him. Chu Wan'er ran away from home for nearly two years and was with Guo Zhiyuan every day. There was no one around him. It would be normal to say that something happened.

People in this era attach great importance to chastity. If the Xiao family knew that Chu Wan'er and Guo Zhiyuan were running away from home and even pregnant, the marriage would naturally be ruined, and Chu Honggang would become a laughing stock. For Chu Honggang, who loves face, it would be even more uncomfortable than killing him!

Guo Zhiyuan didn't answer, and the old god was looking at Chu Honggang. Chu Honggang was even more angry and sat down on the chair of the Grand Master in dejectedly, muttering to himself: The family is unfortunate, the family is unfortunate! If this is to be spread, what is my face to see and what is the official?

When Guo Zhiyuan saw Chu Honggang's appearance, he didn't dare to anger him anymore. If he really wanted to make Chu Honggang angry, he wouldn't be able to explain it to Chu Wan'er. He hurriedly stepped forward and bowed and said, "Don't calm down, your son-in-law is sincere to Wan'er, and he will never let her down. Please help me."

Chu Honggang was angry and wanted to kill Guo Zhiyuan, so he naturally wouldn't pay attention to him. However, Guo Zhiyuan continued to say to himself: Father-in-law, I don't know why you have such a big prejudice against me. In fact, my son-in-law is not bad. In terms of family background, my father is now the governor of Gansu, and his status is not much worse than that of Daheng Xiao. The son-in-law is not talented and is now a sixth rank. This time, he will make a great contribution to suppressing the rebellion. If nothing unexpected happens, the fifth rank prefect cannot escape. If you give the son-in-law some time, it will be fine if the son-in-law is confident that he will be the governor of one side. This should not be considered a humiliation, right?!

People are so strange. Before, Chu Honggang wanted to make friends with Xiao Daheng, so naturally he didn't like Guo Zhiyuan. Now that he learned that Chu Wan'er was pregnant, his marriage with the Xiao family must have been ruined. After hearing what Guo Zhiyuan said, his mind also started to move. Guo Zhiyuan went to Fujian to become an official for less than two years, and he was promoted from the ninth rank to the sixth rank, and was about to be promoted to the fifth rank. Such an promotion speed is unprecedented in the Ming Dynasty. The key is that Guo Zhiyuan's promotion depends entirely on himself, not on nepotism, which is a bit out of heaven. So Chu Honggang's thoughts also changed quietly. He turned his head to look at Guo Zhiyuan, and felt that this guy was not as disgusting as he had just looked.
