This rejection was too sharp and straightforward, and Mu Qingchao still kept the second half of the sentence in his mouth.
His mouth closed in the air twice: "Uh... okay..."
In fact, she had already thought of Jiang Bo's answer. How stubborn he was, as long as he determined something, he would never change it.
But Princess Wan'an found her with red eyes this morning.
She had no one to rely on in the palace, but Mu Qingchao had given her some kindness.
It was this kind of kindness that gave her her last hope.
She said: "This is my last chance, people always have to fight for themselves.
Please give me a message from the Queen Mother. No matter whether he agrees or not, I will accept it. I will not have any complaints if the marriage should be made or if we go to the frontier."
In the past, Mu Qingchao didn't like to meddle in other people's business, but when he looked at Princess Wan'an, he felt a sense of sympathy for her.
Her situation in this palace is almost the same as that of Princess Wan'an.
It's just that she was lucky and was reborn, but Princess Wan'an was not so lucky.
In her previous life, when she was isolated and helpless, she wished that someone could help her. Even if it didn't achieve any substantial effect, a little kindness was still good.
Now, she was reborn. She didn't expect that kindness, but she still wanted to give it to others.
She knew that she was destined to be unable to help with this task.
When she wanted to give up, Jiang Bo's words "As long as I can do it" gave her the courage.
Now that the words have been spoken, she might as well say a few more words.
"Your Majesty, the Ai family doesn't understand," she said.
"If it's an ugly, bad, or bad-character person, and you don't agree, Aijia won't say anything.
Regardless of her appearance, temperament, or status, Princess Wan'an is not incompatible with the prince. Why is the prince unwilling to marry her?
If you say you have no feelings for her, that is even more nonsense.
But which marriage in this world is not dictated by parents or a matchmaker?
Having feelings before marriage is called giving and receiving in secret, and taking oneself as a concubine."
If you don't marry a wife, you will be alone until you die, with no one to collect your corpse. Do you know that?
Marrying Princess Wan'an would not only save Princess Wan'an from having to travel thousands of miles away, but also allow him to have a wife and children to sit on the bed with, and then even underground, there would also be people who would throw bowls at the funeral, right?
But Mu Qingchao did not say these words.
Suddenly, I felt that what I just said was too anxious?
What does it have to do with her whether someone gets married or not?
That was his business, and he was too caught up in it.
So he paused, then touched his nose in embarrassment: "Then...that's not what the Ai family means."
"The Ai family just don't understand. There must be a reason for your unwillingness."
After all, she had tested it herself, and Jiang Bo was not the kind of person who cut off his sleeves.
When she said this, Jiang Bo didn't answer for a while.
There was silence in the hall for a moment, which made her even more embarrassed.
Forehead……
It seems that there is a reason and there is no need to tell her, right?
"Ah, okay, okay, if you don't want to say it, the Ai family won't ask, then... that... forget it... the Ai family is nosy, then... the Ai family is gone."
She wished she could just dive into the ground. Why did she say those words in such a hurry?
Look, if someone doesn’t pick up the fight, whose face is it that’s going to be embarrassing?
"What if I say that I already have someone I like?"
After being calm for a long time, Jiang Bo's words suddenly sounded like thunder on the ground.
Even Su Jingwen, who was standing aside, suddenly raised his head.
"Ah?" Mu Qingchao was also stunned.
"Who is it?" She asked subconsciously, and then felt that she was being rude and said hurriedly: "Ah haha... The Ai family just asked casually, and the general does not need to tell him.
Bi...after all...
You are not engaged yet, so you must be afraid of ruining the girl's reputation if you tell her now, right?
The Ai family has left first, you don’t need to send it off, you don’t need to send it off..."
She turned around, breathed a sigh of relief, then quickened her pace and started to leave as if running away.
It turns out... Jiang Bo has always had someone he likes?
No wonder, no wonder he never got married in his previous life. He must be someone who couldn't get what he wanted, such as a princess from an enemy country? Or a young lady from an aristocratic family who got engaged early?
An 8,000-word novel about the inability to love has already flashed through her mind.
Think about it, for the sake of a woman who will never marry, in the end he would rather die in battle and be separated from the one he loves forever. What kind of epic love story is this?
If she had read novels in the past, she might not have had such deep empathy, but now the person in the story is standing in front of her, a living person, such a good Jiang Bo...
She couldn't help but feel a little bit of heartache and regret.
"Queen Mother..."
But Jiang Bo stopped her again from behind.
Mu Qingchao turned around and looked at him with a more evasive look: "Huh? Is there anything else...?"
"I heard that the Queen Mother was grounded some time ago?" he asked.
"Yes, that's what happened." Mu Qingchao replied.
"Why? Is someone framing you?" He knew that her life was not easy, there were many dangers in the palace, and being framed was just a common occurrence.
Mu Qingchao shook his head: "No, it's not."
Then she laughed again: "Hey, don't you know the emperor? Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. He wants to mourn the family, and there is no need for any reason? It just depends on his mood."
The sentence is clearly said in a calm and gentle way, but it makes people feel a bit sad inexplicably. What does it feel like to live a precarious life and live or die entirely depending on the mood of others?
Only she can say these things with a smile.
"I heard that the Queen Mother has two faces?" he asked.
"Huh?" Mu Qingchao's eyes suddenly widened.
Does he even know this?
"Ah, haha..." She laughed awkwardly: "Well...it's a long story, it's a long story..."
Jiang Bo said: "There must be a compelling reason. There are open and covert attacks in the palace, so the Queen Mother should be more careful."
One sentence made Mu Qingchao's heart suddenly soften.
She has a good reputation, and there are so many people who laugh at her and say she has no shame.
Only Jiang Bo, only Jiang Bo knew that she couldn't help herself and told her to be more careful.
Why did such a good Jiang Bo end up like that in the end? Why must fate be so unfair? Good people never get good rewards?
When she thought of this, her eyes turned red.
She said: "The Ai family knows about it. My lord, you must be more careful."
"It's getting late. The Ai family should leave. I'm sorry for interrupting the prince."
After Mu Qingchao said this, he turned around in a panic and headed outside the palace. His steps were so panicked that he even forgot which foot to take first.
Jiang Bo stood behind her and watched her step on the hem of her skirt and almost fall.
Su Jingwen stood aside and took in the whole scene, and couldn't help but sigh a few times.
