Chapter 1393 - 1400: Plum Banquet (3)
To completely eradicate his son’s thoughts of reconciliation, he even considered arranging another marriage for him, finding someone whose appearance, temperament, and background were all superior to the Wu’s family daughter, hoping his son would no longer obsessively persist.
Who knew that just after the matchmaker left Duke Li Guo’s Mansion, she was nearly beaten to death by a servant commanded by him, the engagement letter was also forcibly taken back, and a message was put out warning that anyone who dared to propose a match for the Duke Li Guo’s Mansion would be killed immediately next time.
Since then, no matter how powerful the Duke Li Guo’s Mansion was, nobody dared to propose a match for the mansion, not to mention matchmaking, even seeing a person from Duke Li Guo’s Mansion would make official matchmakers walk the other way in fear!
Mo Qingshan was enraged and harshly reprimanded his son, yet Mo Zili was as stubborn as a bull, unyielding to his father’s scolding or his mother’s earnest persuasion, firmly determined to bring Wu Xiangyun back. For her, he could kneel all day and night on the cold floor, unable to be pulled up, even willing to give up his life.
He might not care about his life, but Mo Qingshan does, being in his forties, he has only this one descendent. If something truly bad happened to this cursed child, he would not be able to live either.
Thus, knowing that going to the Mansion of Marquis Jian’an would subject him to humiliation and might even end fruitlessly, but for his son, he still had to bite the bullet and go, waiting for the return of his father with The Emperor’s edict...
Inside the Mansion of Marquis Jian’an,
The Marquis of Jian’an had already gone to court, and Madam Wu alone, anxiously welcomed the eunuch and Imperial Doctor sent by the Empress Dowager.
There were two eunuchs, one a bit older, in his thirties, very steady and mature, while the other seemed to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, skinny and yellow, but very articulate.
"Madam need not panic, The Za Family is here for no other intent but because the Empress Dowager has a deep friendship with your beloved daughter, and upon hearing that she has contracted the wind chill, is extremely concerned. Thus, The Za Family was ordered to bring a doctor skilled in treating Wind-Cold Syndrome to diagnose and treat your daughter. Please lead the way, let The Za Family and the Imperial Doctor visit Miss Wu’s Boudoir!"
