Xu Qingchen nodded, cupped his hands and smiled, "That's me. Greetings, Madam Dongfang."
Dongfang Hui nodded and sighed, "Young Master Qingchen is so elegant. He really deserves the title of the number one Young Master in the world. Mr. Hongyu should be happy to have such a son. "
"Madam, you flatter me." Xu Qingchen was still smiling, but looking at Dongfang Hui, he was even more satisfied. At the beginning, Dongfang Hui only wanted to protect the face of the Infinite Boundless Mountain and clean up the mess for Dongfang You. Now, she really felt that it would be good if Xu Qingchen could become the son-in-law of the Infinite Boundless Mountain. She had no children. She had raised Dongfang You from a young age. She had probably spent more effort than many biological parents. Naturally, she also hoped that her disciple could have a good marriage. However, Dongfang You didn't understand the ways of the world. No matter who she married, her life would be difficult. Even if she had the Infinite Boundless Mountain behind her, she couldn't guarantee that her husband would love her sincerely. If she was married and raised up, her life wouldn't be better than being a widow. But the Xu family was different. As long as Dongfang You married into the Xu family, the Xu family wouldn't mistreat her. Unfortunately, Dongfang Hui didn't know that Dongfang You had already offended the First Madam of the Xu family, Young Master Qingchen's mother.
Looking at this situation, Ye Li sighed softly in her heart. Why was Dongfang Hui looking at her elder brother like a son-in-law?
The hall was silent for a moment. Ye Li asked, "Madam, what brings you here?"
Dongfang Hui smiled faintly, "I haven't gone down the mountain for decades. This time, my disappointing disciple ran down the mountain. I had to go down the mountain to find her and look around. You 'er has been spoiled by me since young. If she offended you, please forgive her. "Ye Li smiled faintly," Of course not. Miss Dongfang is talented and beautiful. Madam, you are so lucky. "
Looking at Ye Li's behavior, Dongfang Hui knew that it wouldn't be easy to make the Xu family agree to marry Dongfang You. After pondering for a moment, Dongfang Hui sighed softly and said, "Princess Consort, You 'er is to blame for this matter. Over these years, Infinite Boundless Mountain's population has dwindled. Originally, I had not intended to let You 'er descend the mountain. While Infinite Boundless Mountain was a little cold and desolate, it was still much better than being swept into these chaotic times. Who would have thought that the child would run down the mountain without us noticing? But now that things had come to this, You 'er was a girl after all. I don't ask for her to bring glory to Infinite Boundless Mountain. I only hope that she can marry peacefully. Henceforth, I'll be a good wife to my husband and raise my children, living a peaceful life. "
It had to be said that as a Master, as the person in charge of Infinite Boundless Mountain, Dongfang Hui's efforts towards this disciple of hers were extremely moving. But the problem was that the Xu family and Xu Qingchen had to bear the consequences of helping her. Whether it was for the Xu family, for her brother, or for the layout of the Prince Ding Mansion, Ye Li could only bite her lip. Looking at Dongfang You, Ye Li smiled, "It is also Miss Dongfang's fortune to have such a good Master as Madam. Miss Dongfang is as beautiful as a flower, skilled in both the pen and the sword. She is also from a prestigious family. If Madam wishes to take in a son-in-law, how could the heroes of the world not hear the news and come? "
Dongfang Hui's smile faded slightly as she looked at Ye Li, asking, "Then … what about the First Young Master of the Xu family?"
Ye Li paused for a moment, before replying calmly, "Elder Brother's marriage is naturally decided by Grandfather, First Uncle, and First Aunt. While this junior is Princess Ding, I am still a junior. How could I dare to act on my own accord? "
Dongfang Hui understood that Ye Li's words at least expressed her attitude. The Prince Ding Mansion would definitely not make use of Xu Qingchen's marriage for the sake of Infinite Boundless Mountain's power. In fact, there was already a hidden message within. The Prince Ding Mansion was unwilling to have a marriage alliance with Infinite Boundless Mountain. As such, Dongfang Hui's opinion of Mo Xiuyao rose a little. After all, in this world, Mo Xiuyao was probably the only one who could resist such a temptation, and push away such a powerful ally.
Dongfang Hui frowned, saying, "Princess Ding means that this matter needs to be discussed with Mr Hongyu and Madam personally?"
Ye Li smiled, "The marriage of a child naturally needs to be discussed with their parents." It was not that Ye Li wanted to push the trouble to Xu Hongyu and Madam Xu, but that she indeed did not have the right to reject on behalf of Xu Qingchen. Even if she rejected on behalf of Xu Qingchen, Dongfang Hui would still bring up Xu Hongyu and Madam Xu. After all, even if one traveled the world, there was no way that a cousin could make the decision for her cousin's marriage.
Dongfang Hui looked a little helpless as she asked Xu Qingchen, "What does Young Master Qingchen say? While You 'er was in the wrong in this matter, she is still a girl at the end of the day. I am also a girl, and naturally know that it is not easy to be a girl. "
Xu Qingchen raised his eyebrows. Dongfang Hui's matter reminded him that after these days, Dongfang You's reputation had already been ruined. If he did not marry Dongfang You, it would be irresponsible.
Xu Qingchen glanced sideways at Mo Xiuyao, who was sitting leisurely beside him, and said lightly, "Madam, you are exaggerating. Originally … Miss Dongfang said that she was going to marry into the Prince Ding Mansion. This was heard by all the dignitaries present at that time. Madam, you also know that the rules of the Xu family are that we do not ask for a girl to be beautiful and talented. We only ask for a clean, gentle, and virtuous reputation. Moreover, with Miss Dongfang's character and talent, there is no need to worry that there won't be any heroes in the world fighting to marry her. "
Xu Qingchen's words were very gentle and polite, but in Dongfang Hui's ears, they were very harsh. What Xu Qingchen meant was that since Dongfang You was born in the Boundless Mountain, she did not need to care about her reputation at all. Not to mention that she only had a rumor with someone, even if something really happened, there was no need to worry about no one wanting to marry her. But the Xu family was an exception. The daughter-in-law of the Xu family did not need to have any ability or background. She only needed a clean reputation and a virtuous character. But Dongfang You did not have either of these.
No matter how good Dongfang Hui's temper was, she was still angered by Mo Xiuyao's words to the point that her heart secretly ached. At the same time, she also discovered that this seemingly gentle and refined immortal Young Master did not have a good impression of the Boundless Mountain, even vaguely showing some hostility. Compared to Prince Ding's indifference and Princess Ding's tactful rejection, this Young Master Qingchen was the one who truly hated the Boundless Mountain. Dongfang Hui was a little unsure whether Xu Qingchen's attitude towards the Boundless Mountain was because of Dongfang You's incessant pestering these past few days. But logically speaking, with the personalities of the Xu family, even if they were dissatisfied with Dongfang You's pestering, they would not express such direct hatred and hostility.
Frowning, Dongfang Hui secretly felt that she might have been a little too anxious.
