Leaving Concubine Hu, Princess Jinghe called Yuan Qingling and wanted to have a private chat with her.
Yuan Qingling took her to the side hall of the imperial concubine's palace. After serving tea, he stepped back to talk to her alone.
Princess Jinghe looked at her and said: "Princess, among all the women among us, you have the most open-minded and transparent ideas. I think you should understand me."
Yuan Qingling nodded, "I think I understand."
Princess Jinghe held the tea cup, slowly turning it in her hand, and said quietly: "Actually, a while ago, my family proposed marriage to me, and I almost agreed, because I really wanted to end that kind of life.
But when I really wanted to say yes, I objected wildly in my heart. I couldn't do this. There was indeed such a person in my heart. How could I lie to myself?
So I ultimately didn't agree.
I know he is waiting for me, but when I go back to be with him, every day will be torture. We can't be husband and wife. Just like this, I marry the person I want to marry, and the memories will not be taken away.
, I married him at the best time, and I feel very at ease. I think my decision was right. Princess, my second sister-in-law has always listened to you. Please go back and persuade her not to worry about me anymore.
"
Yuan Qingling looked at her and said: "If you think this is good for yourself, then no one can interfere with your decision. As for the second sister-in-law, I will persuade her later, but I think you really don't want her to worry about your words.
, then you should live a happy life. Seeing your smile, I believe it will be more effective than a thousand words I can say."
"I worked hard and have been working hard, and it's already good. After I made this decision, I felt very calm."
she says.
"But you look haggard."
Yuan Qingling looked at her face. The paleness that even makeup and powder couldn't hide was revealed bit by bit.
Jinghe smiled and stretched out his hand to touch his thin face, "It's been really hard these days. My family objected, and they took turns to persuade me, and I tried to convince them with emotion and reason, but fortunately, I convinced them all one by one.
, they finally respect and agree with my choice."
This sounds easy to say, but the process must have been very difficult.
She needs a space to live the life she wants without having to bear anyone's care, pity, worry and love.
Yuan Qingling actually thought about it for a moment and understood her choice. Perhaps, if she were Jinghe, she would do the same and marry the person she loved before and live happily and peacefully in her imagination.
In this life, this is the best way to reconcile with yourself.
She didn't betray her heart, and she didn't force herself to marry a man she didn't like.
She held Jinghe's hand and said softly: "Well, that's good. I support you."
Jinghe held her hand, breathed a sigh of relief, smiled, the bruises under her eyes were diluted by the smile, her eyebrows were crooked, "You are the first person to support me sincerely, I need it so much
Thank you for this support."
Yuan Qingling smiled and said, "Everyone will support you from now on."
"Well, I believe so!"
Jinghe seemed to be full of strength again, and her eyes were filled with enthusiasm for life.
Princess Sun still felt awkward. During the celebration banquet, she just kept looking at Jinghe. She felt very complicated because she believed that a woman's happiness is to find a reliable, trustworthy and lovely man to spend her whole life.
She couldn't bear it any longer, and before the celebration started, she called Yuan Qingling out and complained to Yuan Qingling, "Where can a rich girl from your family do this?
Those women who marry some flower god or willow fairy cannot get married themselves, and they don’t want to cause any criticism, so they use this as an excuse to fulfill their desire to get married. She doesn’t have to do this."
"She is happy, that's enough!"
Yuan Qingling pulled her out and whispered, "If you really care about her and love her, you must respect her choice. If you don't respect her choice, how can you ask her to agree with your so-called happiness?"
What about the definition of?
And do you really think that when she wants to get married, you will be opposed to it, so don’t be so contradictory and let her live her life freely, okay?"
Princess Sun looked melancholy, "I don't know as much as you. I just think it's embarrassing for her to do this. But maybe you're right, she feels happy, which is more important than anything else. Princess, you don't know that she and I are
I really regard her as my younger sister. This girl was snatched away by the third child. Such a quiet person has shouldered all the rumors and lived a down-to-earth life with the third child without allowing anyone else to do so.
To criticize Lao San, your second brother and Lao San had a very good relationship at the time, and I regarded Lao San as a younger brother. When Lao San was punished for kidnapping his bride, the moment she stood up to defend him, I
I decided to be good to her... I just feel sorry for her, I didn't say I wouldn't support her."
"Yes, I know you are very good, and I know you really love her, so just support her, she needs your support so much!"
Yuan Qingling said.
"I know."
Princess Sun said.
Several princes took King Wei away to talk and waited until the celebration banquet started before returning to sit down. However, King Wei did not come in with them. He saw Princess Jinghe and the Cui family outside. He looked at it dreamily.
one time.
As for Lao Jiu, he was not with them. He was playing with the Eighth Prince, and then came over holding hands together.
When Lao Jiu was playing with the Eighth Prince in the imperial garden, he heard that Princess Jinghe was getting married. He was secretly worried. When he saw Yu Wenhao, King Huai of Qi and others coming, he did not see Wei.
Wang, he immediately grabbed Yu Wenhao and said anxiously: "I heard that Princess Jinghe is getting married. Is it true?"
Yu Wenhao turned around hurriedly and saw that the third child had strode in, so he glared at the ninth child fiercely, "Shut up, don't say anything, lest he disturbs this celebration and your father blames you, how can you
You will be punished."
Lao Jiu also saw him coming, so he stopped asking and sat next to the eighth prince.
As everyone knows, the eighth prince heard their conversation and asked Yu Wenhao, "Fifth brother, Princess Jinghe is the third sister-in-law. Is the third sister-in-law going to get married?"
Will you marry third brother again?"
King Wei happened to arrive, and the eighth prince's words reached his ears word for word.
As if he was struck by lightning, his steps froze for a moment, and the blood on his face disappeared instantly. King Huai stood up, stretched out his hand and gave him a hand, "Third brother!"
King Wei looked at him, "Huh?"
"Sit down, father is here!"
King Huai lowered his voice and said, but he was a little panicked when he saw his appearance.
King Wei sat down numbly. After sitting quietly for a while, he turned to the eighth prince and asked, "Eighth brother, who wants to marry?"
Prince Shun covered the eighth prince's mouth and said, "You can't talk nonsense, it's nothing."
"Lao Jiu, let him say it!"
King Wei's hands were folded in his sleeve pockets. This posture was very similar to that of the Supreme Emperor. He had shaved his beard today, and his copper-colored face had a cold and smooth look.
Yu Wenhao said softly from the side: "I'll tell you later, you can't make trouble, everyone is so happy today."
"So, you all know that she is getting married, but I don't!"
King Wei looked at Yu Wenhao and said.
"We just found out."
Yu Wenhao said helplessly.
King Wei made a sound and looked out. Princess Jinghe and the Cui family were walking into the gate of Ming Palace. He looked at it and smiled slowly, "Yeah!"
