"The eldest princess has a very high opinion of her." Princess Guangling said, "But today is also the first time I see her, so I don't know what Xun'er likes in her."
The queen was curious, "He never mentioned anything about Miss Chen Er at home?"
"I did mention it," Princess Guangling couldn't help but laugh again, "that is, after he asked the emperor for a marriage decree, he came back and told me and his father that we should prepare the betrothal gift. He might be getting married soon. .”
"His father didn't take it seriously at first. He just casually asked which lady she was from. After he told Miss Chen Er, his father remembered that the secret guard came back to get house deeds, business deeds, land deeds, and money. Gradually, She was interested, so she asked him again, did Miss Chen Er agree to marry him? He proudly took out the imperial edict and said that you have to agree if you agree, and you have to agree if you disagree. His father read the edict and scolded him. "
"His father scolded him for growing up in vain. He couldn't even get the girl he liked, so he would only bully others."
The queen interrupted her, "What are the secret guards doing when they come back to take house deeds, business deeds, land deeds and money?"
"They said it was given to Miss Chen Er, but the secret guard couldn't tell clearly." Princess Guangling recalled what happened that day and shook her head helplessly, "The queen also knows that although there are many unruly things in his words and deeds, But he has always done things according to rules. He asked the secret guard to come back to get these things, and we just thought he had some urgent needs, so we didn’t pay much attention."
"It wasn't until he came back and was scolded by his father that his eldest brother asked him about the house deeds and business contracts that the secret guards had taken. Then he lazily said that Miss Chen Er was so angry that she wanted to poison him after seeing the marriage decree. In order to save his life, he took those things to bribe her."
"Miss Chen Er was already having a bad life. His elder brother was worried that he was just acting on a whim and making Miss Chen Er's situation worse, so he deliberately asked him about Miss Chen Er's bad reputation. What did he see in Miss Chen Er?"
"He replied that Miss Chen Er had a bad reputation before and was stupid. Now she has a bad reputation because he deliberately asked the Fifth Young Master of Duke Xu's residence to spread it. He said that he wanted to warn everyone in the capital who wanted to take advantage of Miss Chen Er. He has taken a liking to Miss Chen Er, let them all know more about her."
"After his father heard this, he scolded him again."
"He was still very disapproving and urged us repeatedly to prepare more betrothal gifts. He said that Miss Chen Er only recognized money and not people."
"It's no wonder that Miss Chen Er doesn't want to marry him. How can anyone say such a thing about a young lady?" After the queen said with a smile, she changed the topic and said, "It's easier to just accept the money. I'll have someone send some jewelry to the palace later." , you send someone to give it to her. As long as she can live peacefully with Xun'er, her money will not be shortchanged."
"The prince and I thought this way before." Princess Guangling said, "It's rare for a young lady that Xun'er likes to like money, so just give her money. The most indispensable thing in the Guangling Palace is money. But... …”
Princess Guangling paused for a moment before continuing: "After the incident at the Hepingfang Underground Colosseum, she worked day and night to clean up the bones. If one could still say that she was doing things with money, but seeing her current appearance, I don’t think so anymore.”
"She is a woman. What woman doesn't love beauty? But when the empress looked at her, the injuries on her hands and body were no less than those of Xun'er. There were also several cuts on her face."
"Your Majesty must have heard that the eldest princess had intended to be a matchmaker between her and Mr. Wen. Although the Wen family is not a first-class wealthy family, it is not bad. If she really only loves money, she would have chosen Mr. Wen. Just the same, there is no need to take such a risk with Xun'er."
"But she just took the risk. What does this mean?"
"It shows that she may love money, but that's not all. She also has her own beliefs and persistence in her heart. People in the capital were all misunderstood by the earlier rumors and misjudged her."
The queen nodded and agreed: "You are right."
"Actually, if you think about it, you know it." Princess Guangling's eyebrows filled with a layer of tenderness, "For someone as picky as Xun'er, Miss Chen Er must have something outstanding if he can be attracted to him. We, too, will be the same after all. I was misled by those rumors and never really got to know her."
The queen teased: "If you want to praise Xun'er for his sharp eyesight, just say it straight away. Why bother beating around the bush like this? As an aunt, don't I love him enough?"
Princess Guangling smiled and said: "There is no one in the world who dotes on him more than the empress. I am saying this because after seeing the injuries on her face, I suddenly felt a little sad."
"After her parents gave birth to her, they ignored her. The two miracle doctors raised her. After learning that she was valuable, they quickly took her over in exchange for a future. In order not to be used by others. , she could only hide her clumsiness carefully, but she was treated like that. If she hadn't given up on that peony banquet and refused to compromise anymore, it goes without saying what would have happened in the end. "
"These are all in the past." The queen patted her hand in relief.
"It's a thing of the past," Princess Guangling sighed, "That's why I'm even more sad. Xun'er fell in love with her and went to ask the emperor for a marriage decree regardless of her wishes. Although he gave her a lot of money, But it has brought her a lot of trouble. It’s just that her parents don’t love her. Now she has to marry into the Guangling Palace, and she won’t be able to live a peaceful life for a day.”
"If this was my child, I would probably blow up the other person's mansion. Why should I treat her like this?"
Seeing her red eyes again, the queen clapped her hand again, "It's enough that you can think about her like this."
Princess Guangling wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "I have something to ask of your Majesty."
The Queen said: "You say."
"Since you are going to act, please go back and talk to the emperor and ask her and Xun'er to stay in the East Palace for a few more days. After their injuries are almost healed, let them go back." Princess Guangling said slowly.
The queen frowned slightly, "I'm afraid it won't work. The old lady of the Chen family is also poisoned. If she lets it go, I'm afraid it will cause gossip."
"Don't worry, Madam," Princess Guangling said softly, "The prince is related to the future of the Wei Dynasty, how can he be compared to the old lady? She left the East Palace to treat the prince, and I will arrange for the doctor to go to the Chen family. "
"You, you didn't even look at Xun'er just now..." The queen shook her head and said helplessly, "Okay, I'll talk to the emperor later, but I can't guarantee whether it can be done."
"It's enough to have the empress." Princess Guangling said.
Come out of the palace.
Princess Guangling squinted her eyes to look at the dazzling sunshine, then held her mother's hand and boarded the carriage.
As the carriage drove slowly, she coldly ordered: "Go and find out why the old lady of the Chen family was poisoned."
In response, the mama gently clicked the wall of the car, and immediately someone went to Chen's house.
