I guessed that she wouldn't agree, but she didn't expect such a big reaction. After all, she wasn't so excited when she talked about the prince just now.
The emperor made a move, wanting to win for Huo Lichi.
"Ning Le can also go to the border with Li Chi. I think I can take good care of him."
The queen refused without thinking.
"Prince An is not willing to let Ning Le suffer at the border. Now His Majesty asks Ning Le to marry him. What's more, the girl has been pampered since she was a child. Your Majesty is not unclear about the conditions there. The princess who is getting married is treated better than This is good, not to mention cloth jewelry, daily food and housing are also a problem, how can Ning Le get used to it."
He sighed again and added.
"Prince An hopes that Ning Le can live a happy life, why would your Majesty bother to be such a sinner? There are many suitable young men in the capital, and there are always little girls who like him."
The emperor listened a little silently.
He didn't expect the queen to be so resistant, but when he thought of the little girl's white and tender skin, he was a little shaken.
He saw that both children were interested in this, and they got along well. Huo Lichi also grew up under his watch, and his appearance and character were both good. It was a good story to say, but he forgot that he was a general. I also have to go back to the border.
This time he was supposed to call people back to the capital, and he should leave once the matter was resolved, staying until the end of the year at most.
Half a year is too late to prepare for the wedding.
Putting down his chopsticks, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip, thinking deeply.
"But I see that both children clearly have that intention, so we can't separate them forcefully."
That girl Ning Le looked heartless, but if she hadn't thought so, how could she have been so close to other people, even unconsciously showing dependence and familiarity in her movements.
As for the young masters in the capital, the emperor went through it in his mind, but it seemed that none of them showed signs of success.
Either he was bullied and scared since childhood like the third prince, or he was just one-sided and interesting, and the little girl didn't even look at him.
It’s been more than ten years since I’ve been able to do it, but can I suddenly have a good idea within this year?
Gardenia is seventeen years old this year. In this country where women generally get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen, it is the right time. After all, it takes time to get married and wait for the wedding date. He has been looking for it a few years ago, and it seems that Huo is the only one he can find. Li Chi is the most suitable.
There should be a marriage next year at the latest, and the dignified little princess can't let this make her angry.
After hearing what he meant, the queen frowned, but did not refute.
Obviously I still disagree, but I also want the little girl to find someone she likes.
Finally he just sighed.
"Let's talk about it some time later. I want to confirm Ning Le's feelings, and I'd like to trouble Your Majesty to think about the consequences."
Seeing that she relented, the emperor stopped talking about the matter, and the two of them continued to eat quietly.
…
Because I was watching the excitement and patrolling the night before, I turned on the stove when I came back, so I slept a little late.
As a result, Gardenia barely woke up until noon the next day, and was forced to wake up by Suzuran.
"Princess, it's time for you to get up and eat."
Gardenia, who was sleeping dazedly, was helped up, her eyes still closed and her voice was muffled.
"good……"
Several maids were not surprised to help her get up, and their movements were neat. It was obviously not the first time.
Suzuran on the side wetted her handkerchief and wiped her face first, so that she could wake up. Seeing this, she had no choice but to urge her.
"Princess, General Huo has been waiting for you in the side room for a long time. You need to move quickly."
In fact, Huo Lichi had been here for more than an hour. Linglan wanted to wake her up at that time, but was stopped and told to let the little girl continue to sleep, so she had to give up.
