Chapter 1025: Resignation of Engagement

"The daughter of the Gu family has the legacy of the noble family, with a charming appearance and a body that is not overbearing! She is a match made in heaven with the young master!" There were many people who praised her, but most of them were vulgar and boring. These words were refreshing to Wu Yi, but their voices were noisy. , for a moment, I didn’t even know who said it.

Not long after, Gu Qingyue was invited to the tent. It seemed that she had dressed up well. She was wearing slim plain clothes to pay homage to her father and brother. She no longer had the weak posture before, she was radiant, heroic, confident and majestic.

As the saying goes, a girl should be pretty and dress in filial piety. Gu Qingyuefu, who appeared in filial piety, attracted the attention of everyone in the room as soon as he appeared.

Many fiery looks came towards him, but these people knew the importance and did not behave rudely. Instead, they all praised Marshal Zhang Tianwen for finding a good daughter-in-law.

Naturally, Wu Yi followed the crowd and did not mention the congratulations. His voice was drowned in the noise. Wu Yi had no intention of going into this matter, so naturally he would not take the initiative to express anything.

However, there are some things that Wu Yi can't stay away from just because he wants to. What Wu Yi never expected was that he would be tricked by Gu Qingyue.

But when they saw Gu Qingyue knelt down and kowtowed three times to Zhang Tianwen respectfully, just when everyone thought she had agreed to the matter, after all, wasn't these three kowtows the etiquette when meeting her parents-in-law?

However, what everyone did not expect was that Gu Qingyue would actually say something like this, "The marshal clearly saw that the little girl's family had suffered an accident, and both her father and brother died. He made an oath in front of his father and brother's soul, and Beilu If you don't get rid of it, I swear not to talk about the marriage. General Chen is here to testify!"

"This, this, this -" Gu Qingyue's words instantly cooled down the jubilant scene. Many people were speechless and couldn't believe their ears.

This woman has lost her mind and gone crazy. Didn't anyone mention her before coming here? If you want to refuse the marriage, you can find an excuse in the future, such as illness, or incompatible horoscopes, etc., so why bother to make Marshal Zhang Tianwen unable to come to the stage in public.

"This little girl is not worthy of the marshal's son, so I don't dare to delay his future!" As soon as he said this, he basically wanted to put off the marriage with his own efforts.

Soon someone came forward to accuse Gu Qingyue, and the point of entry was extremely clever.

"You girl, you are so ignorant. You are the last bloodline of your Gu family. Since you want to fulfill your filial piety, you should get married as soon as possible and pass on the bloodline. Why don't you say that you will not get rid of the Northern captives and swear not to marry? This is the greatest insult to my father and brother!”

Gu Qingyue turned around and looked at this man, saying unceremoniously: "Do you want me to get married in front of my father and brother's death?"

This person was asked this question, and you hesitated for a long time, but finally you dare not say that this is the way it should be. According to the etiquette system, when a parent dies, the children will mourn for three years. In the Daji Dynasty, which values ​​filial piety, it is a law-like existence.

Although this rule is not so strict these days, it is a bit too much to get married before the death of the father and brother. Even if it is to express happiness and restore the lintel of the family, it cannot be justified.

Zhang Tianwen's face was very ugly, which was natural. Gu Qingyue was considered a junior, so it was a great humiliation to not give him face in public.

Not to mention that Zhang Tianwen was a dignified army marshal, even an ordinary head of a family would be dissatisfied if he was targeted like this by a junior.

Gu Qingyue had a hard time taking action in the name of filial piety. She didn't know why Zhang Tianwen was so eager and left such a flaw. He also had his own reasons for not being able to step down at the moment.

If Gu Qingyue couldn't be moved, Wu Yi operated on him. When Gu Qingyue made a wish before, Wu Yi was on the side as a witness. If Wu Yi denies Gu Qingyue, Gu Qingyue's reputation will be completely ruined. In the future, he just wants to Getting married is impossible.

Zhang Tianwen turned to look at Wu Yi and said, "General Chen, is what she said true?" His voice was calm, but he had been in a high position for a long time and had his own pressure. With Zhang Tianwen beside him, Wu Yi could not use his magic power at all.

From a certain perspective, Zhang Tianwen is the embodiment of order within the jurisdiction of the Northern Army. Wu Yi knew what Zhang Tianwen meant, and all eyes were looking over at this moment, waiting for Wu Yi to say something so that he could completely discredit Gu Qingyue, like a hungry wolf that only chooses people to devour.

At this moment, the only person who didn't look at Wu Yi was Gu Qingyue, maybe she knew she was guilty! Without saying hello to Wu Yi, Wu Yi was dragged into the water.

She was prepared for the worst. She stood upright, like a graceful lotus, emerging from the mud but not stained, and its ripples were clear but not evil, which was touching.

Wu Yi sighed secretly in his heart, this woman really gave him a difficult problem!

"I'm telling you, Marshal, I didn't expect Miss Gu to have such a determination in her heart!"

In his heart, he didn't speak out. Wu Yi didn't stand on any side and chose to be neutral. But at this time, neutrality was a mistake.

"What I say in my heart cannot reach the ears. Who knows what I said! I don't know what I went through when Tianlang City was destroyed!" Before the banquet was over, someone was whispering in private, and the slander against Gu Qingyue had already begun. What could be more severe and despicable than attacking a woman's innocence?

Although, after the destruction of Tianlang City, Gu Qingyue did experience many things that made her lose her innocence in the eyes of secular ethics, but it was not voluntary. A group of big men said these things, which clearly shows the low character of her character.

"Oh!" After Zhang Tianwen heard Wu Yi's words, he nodded slightly, then stood up and said to everyone: "I drank too much today and am a little drunk. You can continue drinking! I'm leaving first!"

The real owners are gone, and it is impossible for the remaining people to really continue drinking. After Zhang Tianwen left, he also left one after another. Before leaving, the eyes he looked at Wu Yi and Gu Qingyue were ridiculed and sneered. , in this world, there really are such stupid people, who don’t even know this little thing about the world.

Gu Qingyue stood there, silently enduring everyone's gaze. She was not tenacious and had no character at her age. Suffering can really shape a person.

However, this is what she should bear. Wu Yi sympathized with her, but when he walked past her, he just shook his head. They are all adults. Now that he has made a choice, he should pay for his choice. cost.

If you don't want to be a good marshal's daughter-in-law, you have to refuse. Compared with the identity of Hou Men's tiger daughter, the name of a marshal's daughter-in-law is obviously more important.

Wu Yi didn't want to evaluate the other party's motives, nor did he want to evaluate right or wrong. All in all, the most important thing for him at the moment was to distance himself from this woman to prevent Zhang Tianwen from angering him. In that case, he would be dumb and eat Coptis chinensis. Not out.
