Chapter 217 - 209: Snowstorm Ambush
Inside Chongshan Pass, in a luxurious inn.
Su Bai stood with utmost respect in front of a middle-aged man.
"Second Young Master, it’s confirmed; Changping Marquis Mansion indeed intends to form a marriage alliance with the Yang family. During the recent birthday banquet, the Marchioness had already hinted at this intention, and these past few days, there has been correspondence between Marquis Changping and Yang Zhenshan. They appear to be discussing the marriage details!"
Su Bai said with humble compliance.
The middle-aged man in front of him was none other than Su Shanyu, the second son of Marquis Jingyuan Mansion.
Su Shanyu was somewhat portly, his face flecked with flesh, and his eyes brimmed with violence; one could tell at a glance that he was not someone to be trifled with.
He was fiddling with a string of jade beads in his hand and said in an indifferent tone, "Stop them!"
The Crown Prince intended for the Ning Qing’s family from Marquis Jingyuan Mansion to form a marriage alliance with Changping Marquis Mansion, which is why Miss Ning Qing of Marquis Jingyuan Mansion came to Chongshan Pass.
However, it was not Jingyuan Mansion’s responsibility but theirs to facilitate this union.
That’s right, Marquis Jingyuan Mansion had long pledged allegiance to the Crown Prince, and Su Shanyu’s purpose here was to assist the marriage alliance between Marquis Jingyuan Mansion and Changping Marquis Mansion.
