Princess Ji was in a panic. Although her eldest brother was no longer in the household department, he could find out exactly how he made his fortune in the past as long as the emperor investigated.
But she was really angry in her heart. How much money had her family supported overtly and covertly over the years? Without the support of her family, would he be where he is today?
Although she had known that he was having an affair, Princess Ji always believed that he still needed to rely on herself. Now that he knew that he was going to marry the granddaughter of Chu Chief Fu as his concubine, he abandoned her directly. She was really a cunning rabbit and a lackey, what an ungrateful person.
people.
Princess Ji had always been forbearing, but now even though she was furious, her face was calm, and she even hid the sadness and anger in her eyes. She only reminded lightly, "My lord, the concubine is not married, Yuan Qingling's belly is weak, everything
There are still variables. In the past, I always advised the prince to leave a leeway in everything. The same words are said today. The prince's seemingly abandoned chess piece may not necessarily have a killing move."
King Ji said calmly: "What I just said has already left a hint. If you and your cousin bear this crime, I will find a way to turn you around."
Princess Ji chuckled and looked at Prince Ji with almost contempt, "Your Majesty, no one has to bear this crime. Yu Wenhao will definitely be able to find out something?"
"I know him very well. I will never take action easily without being completely sure."
A trace of malice flashed in Princess Ji's eyes, "In that case, then find something to trap him so that he has no time to deal with the affairs of Tingjiang Mansion."
When Prince Ji heard this, he narrowed his eyes and looked at her, "Is there anything you can do, Princess?"
Princess Ji coughed a few times, her breathing gradually became rapid, and after panting for a while, she looked directly at Prince Ji and said, "Your Majesty, come here, I will teach you a plan."
King Ji walked over, sat next to her, patted her back gently and said, "Say."
Princess Ji whispered a few words in her ear, and then said: "These two strategies, if one fails, the other will be repeated. If the first succeeds, we can negotiate with Lao Wu."
King Ji looked at her, a complex emotion flashing through his heart.
It seems that we really can't live without her now.
Her scheming was unmatched by anyone, and most importantly, her cruelty was what he desperately needed now.
Today the old lady came to accompany Yuan Qingling.
The old lady is much more energetic than the last time she came here, her face is rosy, and she doesn't need Mama Sun's support to walk, which shows that she is indeed much better.
The old lady came with Yuan Qingping. Yuan Qingping was a little absent-minded. Yuan Qingling talked to her several times, but she was in a daze. After a while, she asked in confusion: "Sister, what did you say?"
Yuan Qingling looked at her angrily.
After the old lady left, Yuan Qingping took her arm and said nervously: "Sister, I have something to tell you."
"What happened?" Yuan Qingling looked at her and asked, "Did something happen in the house?"
"Not really," Yuan Qingping looked a little troubled, "it's that Gu Si."
"Gu Si? What's wrong with Gu Si?" Yuan Qing Ling was stunned.
Isn't this guy going to tangle with Yuan Qingping?
Yuan Qingping's face turned red, and after murmuring for a while, he said: "That day, Xiaoqing and I went out to buy makeup, and we met him on the road. He actually asked me if I would marry him. I was so scared that I turned around and ran away. Sister
,Is this Gu Si a deceiver?"
Yuan Qing Ling laughed, "He asked that?"
"Really? Fortunately, no one else heard it." Yuan Qingping was troubled and at a loss, "Is he teasing me? Why is he so bad? I thought he was a good person."
"Not a good person!" Yuan Qingling said with a smile.
Yuan Qing sighed, and red marks suddenly appeared in his eyes, "Then...then he was teasing me?"
She really thought that he was serious. In the past two days, she tossed and turned, thinking of the moment when he stared at her inquiringly, she felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
"Although he is not a good person, he is not necessarily teasing you or teasing you."
Yuan Qingping shook her arm and said anxiously: "Then help me analyze what he means?"
Yuan Qingling held her hand and said, "Okay, tell me, how do you feel about him? If he really asks for marriage, are you willing to marry him?"
Yuan Qingping looked back and saw no one was there. He bit his lip and said, "I'm not a fool. I'm definitely willing. He's good-looking, has a good family background, speaks well, can do martial arts, and is a palace
The captain of the bodyguard..."
"Deputy!" Yuan Qingling corrected.
Yuan Qing gave him a blank look and said, "What's wrong with the deputy? It's amazing to be the deputy captain at such a young age."
"Not as good as your brother-in-law." Yuan Qingling said proudly.
Yuan Qingping straightened his expression and glanced at her arrogantly, "Maybe my brother-in-law is lucky enough to be a child of the royal family. If he was born into an ordinary family like Gu Si..."
Yuan Qingling had to interrupt her, "Gu Si is not from an ordinary family, you know that, right? Gu Si's father is the Marquis of Zhenbei, and his mother is the princess of the county."
Yuan Qingping's face changed, and her eyes slowly darkened, "Sister, I think he is teasing me. With his family background, what kind of woman can't he marry? His parents can't see it.
Even if he likes me, he won't like me."
Yuan Qingling stopped teasing her and said seriously: "Gu Si really likes you. He told me more than once in front of your brother-in-law and me. The last time your brother-in-law found a husband for you, Gu Si found out that he ran away.
I had a fight with your brother-in-law in the past."
Yuan Qing looked at her intently, "Really?"
"It's true." Although Yuan Qingling couldn't bear to say the next words, she thought it would be better to be mentally prepared, so she continued: "But in this era, parents make the final decision on marriage. You
If you can marry Gu Si, your father will definitely not object, and will even rush to marry you. However, as you said, Gu Si's parents have a high chance of objecting. As long as they don't agree, Gu Si will no longer like you.
, and it’s impossible for him to disobey his parents’ wishes, and of course I don’t think it’s possible for him to elope with you!”
The word "elope" made Yuan Qingping turn pale with fright, and he was stunned for a long time and was speechless.
After a long time, she smiled miserably, "So, I shouldn't have hope or think about flying up a branch and becoming a phoenix?"
Yuan Qingling actually wanted to encourage her to work hard to pursue true love.
But, how easy is it?
If Gu Si's parents object, she can't do anything at all. All she can do is Gu Si, but can she ask Gu Si to disobey her parents' orders?
She can't do anything. She has the least say in her marriage, and neither does Gu Si, so this is the saddest part of the whole thing.
What's even more frustrating is that as a sister, she has no way to comfort her.
Tell her to give up or keep her faith?
Neither of them is suitable, so we can only look at each other, each of us helpless.
