"What? You can't wait to marry that boy?" The old Marquis was surprised. He always felt that his granddaughter's attitude towards this matter was too eager and something was wrong.
After all, she is a girl. She wants to marry a man so anxiously. If word spreads about it, won't it damage her reputation? Even the Marquis of Jingguo will also lose its worth.
This girl shouldn't be so indifferent.
Liu Pinting naturally knew what the old man was thinking. It wasn't that she was really in a hurry to get married, it was just...
After sighing, Liu Pinting said truthfully: "My granddaughter is just worried that something will happen."
"What should I say?" The old man frowned, knowing that she must have something to say.
A trace of worry flashed across Liu Pinting's face, she looked up at the old Marquis and said, "Grandpa, do you still remember that your granddaughter has sworn since she was a child that she will never enter the palace in this life?"
The old Marquis nodded and seemed to have thought of something: "I know this. Your aunt the queen has always hoped that you could marry the fifth prince and become the fifth prince's concubine. She mentioned it many times in private, but I rejected her every time.
Are you worried about this?"
"Exactly."
Liu Pinting admitted without hesitation: "Although grandpa allowed me to make the decision on my own marriage, it is the royal family after all. If the emperor issued an imperial edict asking me to marry into the royal family, even if you, grandpa, are the head of the country, you would not be able to do it."
Isn't it a refusal? Also, although my aunt is your daughter, she is also a queen. If she is really determined to let me enter the palace, what will grandpa do? "
"This..." The old Marquis had never thought about this, and then he looked at his granddaughter and said, "You are so anxious to marry yourself off, but why did you hear something?"
Liu Biting pursed her lips and said with a hint of worry between her brows: "Grandpa also knows that the emperor's health has been getting worse every day in the past two years. News came from the palace that the queen's aunt and Concubine De were interested in getting married in the near future.
Choosing a concubine for the fifth prince and the second prince." Everyone knows that the queen prefers her to be the fifth prince's concubine. Even if her grandfather loves her and refuses several times, there is no guarantee that the queen's aunt will not propose it in public. In this way, her grandfather will be her concubine.
No matter how much her father loved her, he could not disobey Yi's decree and refute the queen's face.
What's more, there is a Concubine De in the palace. She has met Concubine De several times. Although she looks gentle and dignified on the surface, how many of the women in the palace are simple? She is the most beautiful woman in the capital.
Title, she didn't know how many people were watching outside, but in short, she didn't want to take the risk.
Hearing what she said, Marquis Jingguo and his son couldn't help but fall into deep thought. In the end, they had to admit that her analysis did make some sense.
The old Marquis who loved his grandson very much couldn't bear his granddaughter to worry too much about this matter, so he immediately said: "Grandpa will go to Prince Heng's Mansion to propose marriage for you."
Seeing that the old Marquis was devoted to her, Liu Pinting was deeply moved. Seeing that he was really planning to leave, she hurriedly persuaded him: "Don't worry, grandpa might as well mention it to Prince Heng during the morning meeting tomorrow."
, if he intends to get married, it won’t be too late for us to send a matchmaker to his door to propose a marriage. This will avoid any gossip.”
"That's fine, grandpa will wait until tomorrow to go to court and talk to Prince Na Heng. Grandpa and he still have some friendship. Besides, you have to be talented and good-looking. It's hard to find anyone in the capital.
Secondly, marrying that boy doesn’t mean that they have been wronged. I think he wouldn’t refuse.”
