Yun Qian felt that Chu Yuanzhou's words often needed to be twisted to remove some of the moisture before they could be listened to with some authenticity. Chu Yuanzhou knew what she was thinking, and he coughed lightly and said, "I don't usually lie.
If you lie, it’s for the sake of the overall situation.”
Yun Qian was speechless.
Chu Yuanzhou added: "But my mother's illness does have something to do with the Snow Mountain Saint."
Yun Qian only listened this time and did not interrupt. Chu Yuanzhou's eyes became darker and he said slowly: "After I met the Snow Mountain Saint, my mother-in-law has always been opposed to my affairs with her.
My mother-in-law said that the Snow Mountain Saint seemed to be extremely beautiful and intelligent, but she was not suitable for me. She also said that women can be very beautiful, but they must not be too beautiful, because the more beautiful something is, the more poisonous it is. I used to
I don’t believe these words, but now when I think about what my mother-in-law said back then, I feel that she is much more accurate in judging people than I am.”
Yun Qian smiled. He didn't expect that the marriage between Chu Yuanzhou and the Snow Mountain Saint was opposed by both King Chu and Princess Chu. But back then, Chu Yuanzhou was still a young man, young and energetic. No matter how smart he was, in such a situation
As he gets older, he also has a bit of a rebellious mentality. The more people oppose him at that time, the more he will want to be with the Snow Mountain Saint.
There was a touch of sadness in Chu Yuanzhou's voice, and he said in a low voice: "Back then, my mother and concubine went to see the Snow Mountain Saint, but the Snow Mountain Saint made a prediction for my mother and concubine, saying that my mother and concubine
Even though she has all the wealth in the world, she is a miserable person. My father has never treated her well, and the rest of her life will be difficult. If she agrees to arrange the marriage between me and the Snow Mountain Saint, the Snow Mountain Saint says she can do it for her.
Break this move and let her gain my father's favor."
Yun Qian has never believed in the theory of fate, and she even thinks that the Snow Mountain Saint is a master of deceiving people. However, in this dynasty, husband's favor is extremely important to a woman. Such conditions are not suitable for any woman.
Words are very tempting, and the Snow Mountain Saint knows how to exploit people's weaknesses. She couldn't help but interject: "How did the mother-in-law answer her back then?"
"My mother-in-law said that if there is such a thing as changing one's destiny against heaven, it will definitely shorten one's lifespan. There is no need for anyone to intervene in the matter between her and my king. She also said that she will never risk her son's life.
I want to exchange my happiness for those things like flowers in the moonlight and flowers in the mirror." Chu Yuanzhou answered a little indifferently, but couldn't help but let out a sigh, with a trace of regret in his eyes.
Yun Qian praised: "My concubine is really a smart woman."
Chu Yuanzhou whispered: "Yes, she is very smart, kind, and gentle, but my father has never seen these things. From the time I can remember, the two of them have always respected each other as guests, and they will always be like guests."
They are polite, but there has never been any intimacy. Although the two of them have the same thoughts about the Snow Mountain Saint, in the eyes of my father, my mother-in-law has never been anything."
Although Yun Qian didn't know what these things had to do with Princess Chu's serious illness, she did know where Chu Yuanzhou's hatred for King Chu came from.
Chu Yuanzhou has always respected Princess Chu, but King Chu did not treat Princess Chu well. The two of them were friendly on face. With Chu Yuanzhou's intelligence, he could naturally see the tension in their relationship.
Back then, Chu Yuanzhou was known as a genius, but he was also quite favored by the King of Chu. This family was quite interesting.
