At this moment, in the Cao family's meeting hall.
A group of key members of the Cao family, headed by Cao Guan, were discussing the matter of the engagement.
"Lao San, do you really want to refuse the marriage? Have you ever considered the consequences of doing so?" Cao Jun frowned.
"Brother, I have thought very clearly that this engagement must be canceled!" Cao Guan looked serious.
The family meeting was held today to discuss breaking off the engagement.
The actions of Shangguan's family have crossed the line. It is impossible for him to pretend that nothing happened.
"Shangguan Lingcai's death has already made the Shangguan family furious. Once we divorce, it will just give them an excuse to make trouble. At that time, there will be a big battle between the two families!" Cao Jun warned.
"The battle has already started. From the time they framed me and plotted against my daughter, it is impossible for the two families to marry again. What we have to do now is to strengthen our defenses." Cao Guan said with a cold face.
"Are we really going to get to this point? If we completely break up with the Shangguan family, we will have no way out." Cao Jun looked a little ugly.
"Brother, I also hope that the family can develop safely, but now there are internal and external troubles. If we don't break the boat, we will be eaten away sooner or later. We can't retreat anymore!" Cao Guan shook his head.
One step back, one step back.
If they compromise this time, it will only make the Shangguan family worse.
While the men of the Cao family are still bloody and capable of counterattack, it is better to give it a try head on.
Even if you lose, you still have to show the Cao family's style.
"Second brother, why are you silent? I would like to persuade the third child!" Cao Jun winked wildly at the people around him.
"Is what I say useful? The third child is the patriarch, and all major family affairs are decided by him." Cao Biao directly chose to put it badly.
"Second brother, at the family meeting, everyone can speak freely. If you have any good suggestions, I can adopt them." Cao Guan said.
"Okay, then I'll say it."
Cao Biao cleared his throat and said, "Third son, I know Concubine Xuan doesn't want to marry Shangguanhong, but the consequences of retiring the engagement are very serious, so I think we can make a little flexibility."
"Oh? How can I be flexible?" Cao Guan raised his eyebrows.
"It's very simple. Our Cao family still has many women who have not left the cabinet. If your daughter refuses to marry, then get another one, as long as you can get married." Cao Biao said lightly.
"Substitution?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone started whispering.
This seems like a good choice.
Concubine Cao Xuan does not marry, but some people are willing to marry.
Shangguan Hong is so outstanding, which woman wouldn't be jealous of him?
"Second brother, after so many things have happened, no matter who you marry, it is equivalent to jumping into a pit of fire." Cao Guan was a little embarrassed.
"Someone has to sacrifice. If your daughter doesn't want to, she can only find someone else." Cao Biao said.
"That's the truth, but who is worthy of Shangguanhong?" Cao Jun thought thoughtfully.
