Chapter Ninety-Two: Hidden Scheming
Murong Xiu found clues about her friendship with Ruiqi in Yuxi Room that day, and she has been thinking about how to confess everything to her father Murong Zhongyong, so that her father can decide to dissolve her and Ruiqi's marriage contract as soon as possible.
Although Murong Xiu felt that at this time, Ruiqi had already gone on an expedition to the Western Regions with his father, and was preparing to fight a bloody battle with a group of stubborn enemies who did not know the details. At this time, she proposed to her father to dissolve the marriage contract, which was inevitably a little unkind.
But Murong Xiu thought that he was just confessing the truth to his father, at best, he was just right to discuss, and he didn't really let his father immediately go to Huyan's house to raise the matter.
So even if you say it yourself, it's just some private talk. It can only be regarded as a conversation between father and daughter, as long as it does not openly propose to the Huyan family to withdraw from the marriage, it will not be harmful, not to mention how vulgar the Murong family is.
Murong Xiu tossed and turned on the incense couch for several nights and couldn't sleep, she hoped that it would be good if Ruilin was by her side at this time to discuss with her, so that she would have full confidence and courage to confess her thoughts to her father, so that she could also persuade her father to raise the matter with the Huyan family in the future, and consider giving her to Ruilin by the way.
In that way, the Huyan family would not feel too embarrassed, but they would just change her Murong Xiu from combining with Ruiqi to marrying Ruilin, and Ruiqi could also marry Yuxi.
In her opinion, no matter from which point of view, it is the best of both worlds, and it will not hurt the faces of the two families at all.
In that way, she can not only marry Ruilin, but also Ruiqi can become a couple with Yuxi, so that the two families have reached two satisfactory marriages, and they will be the sons and daughters of the first life.
Murong Xiu pondered this matter over and over again, and felt that he had ten thousand reasons to bring up with his father.
But Murong Xiu ignored his father's thoughts, Murong Zhongyong was bent on marrying her to Ruiqi, the heir of the Huyan family, that was an ideal marriage in Murong Zhongyong's mind, and Yuxi was the last thing the Murong family had to consider.
After a night of hard thinking and meditation, the next morning, Murong Xiu decided to take the portrait painted by Yuxi and talk to his father about his thoughts in person.
After breakfast, Murong Zhongyong sat alone on the Taishi chair in the study, flipping through a collection of ancient books.
Murong Xiu took the portrait, rolled it into a roll, and tiptoed into his father's study.
"Daddy, I have something I want to discuss with you. Murong Xiu looked at his father sitting on the Taishi chair stiffly.
With a serious look on his face, Murong Zhongyong looked at Murong Xiu, who walked in with the mobile lotus steps.
Murong Xiu looked a little nervous, Murong Zhongyong didn't know what his daughter had to discuss with him so early, which was different from his usual habits.
Because in the past, Murong Xiu would always discuss anything with him at the dinner table.
"Xiuxiu, do you have anything to do? Murong Zhongyong stood up and moved a chair to the side of the bookcase, motioning for Murong Xiu to sit down beside him.
"Daddy, I have something I have to discuss with you, this matter is very important, it is related to me and Yuxi. Murong Xiu pursed her lips and said.
"It's about you and Yuxi, are you hiding something from me?" Murong Zhongyong raised his eyelids and looked at Murong Xiu, who had a nervous expression, and then took a bite of the big red robe.
"That's right, I recently discovered something about Yuxi and Riich. I don't want to hide it from you, so I'll just talk to you. Murong Xiu said as she looked at her father's toes with flickering eyes.
"It's about Yuxi and Ruiqi, what is that? Can you explain it?" Murong Zhongyong looked at Murong Xiu's restrained face with a serious gaze.
"Look what this is, this is what I found in Yuxi's room. Saying that, Murong Xiu slowly unfolded the portrait in his hand in front of his father.
"What is this, who is this painting, is it painted by Yu Xi?" Murong Zhongyong's eyes widened, staring at the portrait in Murong Xiu's hand.
"Can't you see that Yuxi is drawing Riich? She secretly painted it, hiding it in the room behind everyone's back. Murong Xiu said angrily.
"It's Ruiqi, it's still a bit like, so why is she painting this?" Murong Zhongyong began to realize Yuxi's true intention of painting this portrait.
Could it be true that the two of them had revealed the meaning before that?
"Daddy, can't you see that the relationship between Yuxi and Ruiqi is a bit ambiguous?" Murong Xiu's tone began to sharpen.
"Xiuxiu, pay attention to what you say, what is ambiguous, how ugly it is to say this, one of them is your fiancé, and the other is your sister!" Murong Zhongyong scolded Murong Xiu severely, he felt that Xiuxiu was a little unscrupulous at this time.
"What's so ugly, don't they know the result of this? They are still so affectionate in front of others! Didn't the two of them seriously think about it?" Murong Xiu looked a little angry.
"Xiuxiu, you'd better not say that, you must know that you and Ruiqi have a marriage contract, and sooner or later the two of you will get married. If others knew that you said this, how ugly the result would be at that time, have you thought about it carefully?" Murong Zhongyong looked at Murong Xiu with a cold gaze.
"I don't care, Yuxi and Ruiqi are like that, I don't want to marry Ruiqi, I want to dissolve this marriage contract, you see Yuxi is hiding in the room to draw his portrait, who knows where they have gone!" Murong Xiu wiped the corners of her eyes with her hand as she spoke, and a few tears hung on Murong Xiu's fair face, it seemed that she felt very aggrieved.
Murong Zhongyong was a little angry, and slapped the table hard: "Xiuxiu, you pay attention, don't speak so unruly!"
Murong Xiu was taken aback by his father's beat, and hurriedly wiped the corners of his eyes with his fingers, looked away, and sat silently.
Murong Zhongyong looked at his daughter Lihua's tearful face, and couldn't help but feel a little soft in his heart, he slowed down his tone and said, "Xiuxiu, don't blame your father for being loud, you must know that it is really inappropriate for you to talk about this matter at this time." Huyan's father and son are fighting bloodily in the front, but you are saying that Ruiqi and Yuxi are like this in the rear, if this word spreads, others will think that the Murong family is too ruthless and unrighteous, do you know?"
Murong Xiu listened, lowered her eyes and looked at her toes with some disappointment, but she also felt that she had expected it before, but she couldn't tell her father the reasons she had expected.
First, she felt that what her father said was not unreasonable, and secondly, the conversation did not achieve the results she expected.
"Daddy, I just want to wait for Ruixi to come back and dissolve the marriage, so that Yuxi and Ruiqi can also be fulfilled, so that I won't miss the lifelong event between me and Yuxi. Murong Xiu changed her tone, she wanted to discuss this matter with her father amicably.
"Xiuxiu, what do you think, let Yuxi and Ruiqi get married, what about you?" Murong Zhongyong felt that his daughter's heart should have some other plans, she didn't just want to fulfill Yuxi and Ruiqi.
