Qin Luan held Qin Ruo's letter and remembered when she asked Su Rong to follow her to Nanchu, but Su Rong rejected her.
Now her brother asked her if she was going to Nanchu? Can she go?
What about after going to Nanchu? Will Su Rong reuse her?
What if we don’t reuse her? Did she go to Nanchu to get married? Who to marry? She doesn't have to think about Zhou Gu for her whole life, but what about the second young master of Nanchu Ye Prime Minister's Mansion? She may not be able to climb it.
She is very clear about her ambition. She does not want to marry someone to raise a husband and raise children. Even if she marries someone, she will marry a powerful person. Who is better than the current Crown Prince?
But her status was too low now. No matter how the prince chose his concubine, he could not choose her, the daughter of a criminal minister.
But what if she is not a crown princess, but a side concubine, or a concubine?
She can always get it.
She clenched the letter tightly, raised her head, and looked into the inner hall of the study. Through the window screen, she could only see the dim figure of the prince sitting in front of the desk.
She thought that it was time for the prince to choose a concubine, and maybe his majesty and the queen were taking care of it for him now. As long as she stays in the East Palace, she will always have a chance, right? As long as she becomes the prince's wife, there is hope that she will become the ruler of the middle palace in the future.
At this moment, Qin Luan forgot that there was once a Xie Lin who cared about her and had a big fight with Zhou Gu for her.
At the same time, in the Ruian Palace, Xie Lin left the office and was having dinner with the Prince of Ruian and the Princess. Since the prince returned to Beijing and there were many court affairs, the Prince of Ruian and Xie Lin also became busy, so that recently the father and son returned to the palace. It's too late.
Princess Ruian had been waiting for the father and son to return home to have lunch together, and asked the kitchen to prepare various supplements. She was afraid that the father and son would be too tired and their bodies would not be able to keep up with their nutrition and would not be able to bear the food.
She kept serving soup to Xie Lin. After Xie Lin drank two bowls, he begged for mercy, "Mother, my son can't drink any more."
"Look at how thin you have become. You worked so hard in the war and finally came back safely. You need to eat more and take more supplements." Princess Ruian refused to say anything and pushed another bowl of soup to him, "Drink it all."
Xie Lin grimaced. No matter how delicious the soup was, he was still tired of it after drinking it for a few days. He looked at King Ruian for help.
King Ruian gave him a helpless look.
"Mom knows how bad the food in the military camp is. You have been suffering for several months, so you just need to make up for it." Princess Ruian said very understandingly: "Don't worry, I will have the kitchen heated tomorrow." , this black chicken soup is the last time today.”
Xie Lin breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay!"
Princess Ruian looked at him happily. When her son returned from following the prince to fight in the front line, he was completely calm and changed. She brought up the old story again, "It's time for you to get married. I have chosen a girl from a few families. After a while, do you think so?" Take a look."
Xie Lin immediately said: "Mom, I still want to marry Qin Luan."
Princess Ruian frowned, "Why do you still care about Qin Luan? She is the female official of the East Palace and the daughter of the guilty minister."
Xie Lin immediately said: "I just want to marry her."
Princess Ruian was unhappy, "She belongs to the prince."
"The prince told me that Qin Luan is just a female official in the East Palace, not a person in his room." Xie Lin said.
Princess Ruian frowned, "That's what I say, but it doesn't suit you well."
"Mom, as early as a hundred years ago, our Ruian Palace was also a bandit, wasn't it?" Xie Lin whispered: "Why do you dislike others? Anyway, my son likes me."
Princess Ruian choked.
King Ruian remained silent, then turned to glare at Xie Lin, "Do you like it that much?"
"Yeah." Xie Lin nodded.
King Ruian sighed and looked at the princess.
Princess Ruian was unhappy, "Then Qin Luan doesn't like you. There's one thing I haven't told you. Three years ago, I planned to propose a marriage to you. The first person I liked was the daughter of former Yushi Zhongcheng Qin Yuan. Qin Luan, I personally spoke to Mrs. Qin. Mrs. Qin did not refuse at the time, but some days later, she told me in a subtle way that her daughter was still young and she was not in a hurry."
She put down her chopsticks, looked at the stunned Xie Lin and said, "What does this mean? It means that Mrs. Qin went back and asked Qin Luan that Qin Luan didn't like you and didn't agree."
She looked at her son and said, "It's not that my mother is strict and insists on being a good match. It's that I don't believe that people who didn't fall in love with you back then can now fall in love with you. Even if they fall in love with you now and agree to marry you, It’s also because of your identity and the lintel of Prince Ruian’s Mansion, not because of you as a person.”
Xie Lin really didn't know about this. Her mother had never told him, "Mom, you didn't lie to me, did you?"
"What did I lie to you about?" Princess Ruian glared at her son angrily, "Shen Xian's wife knows about this. If you don't believe it, ask your Aunt Shen now. Because she is strict with her words, even though she is silent Bu Xiang doesn't like to attend parties, but because of Shen Xian's identity, there is nothing in Beijing that she doesn't know about. I once asked her to find out about Qin Luan's character."
Xie Lin put down his chopsticks, "Then who does she like?"
The Prince of Ruian's Palace and the Censor Zhongcheng Palace were highly favored by the Qin family. Her mother had chosen Qin Luan for him, so she naturally chose Qin Luan. But Mrs. Qin refused. Did the Qin family not want to climb into Prince Ruian's Mansion? Of course not, it can only be Qin Luan who disagrees.
Princess Ruian looked at her son, hesitant.
Xie Lin asked: "Mom, tell me, what do you know? Just tell me."
Princess Ruian sighed, "I don't know if it's accurate or not. After Mrs. Qin rejected me, I was also very confused. What's wrong with you? Although you are a little immature, who is born mature? You will grow, I also doubt it. She found someone she liked, so she secretly sent someone to inquire about him. After watching him for more than half a year, I discovered one thing, that is, Qin Luan pays more attention to Zhou Gu."
Xie Lin was shocked, "You said Qin Luan likes Zhou Gu?"
Princess Ruian said: "If she didn't like it, she always paid attention to what Zhou Gu was doing? Twice, she still created opportunities and chance encounters. Later, I got a little angry, so I dropped the matter. After all, it was spread out, and our family lost face. "
Xie Linlai was angry, "Is this Zhou Gu born to be against me?"
He asked Princess Ruian angrily, "Mother, when you hid this from me, were you afraid that I would find a fight with Zhou Gu?"
"That's right, you can't beat me." Princess Ruian said helplessly, "Who knows, later on, you still had a fight with Zhou Gu because of Qin Luan. No one got better."
"Zhou Gu doesn't like Qin Luan." Xie Lin said, "I found out later that he agreed to take care of Qin Luan because of Qin Ruo, and he apologized to me."
He was discouraged, "I wonder if she still likes Zhou Gu now."
Princess Ruian looked at him, "If you really want to marry, mother won't stop you, but mother tells you that if you marry a woman who doesn't like you, if you can't make her like you, the couple will become separated over time. , the house is restless, and you are the one who suffers."
Xie Lin felt depressed, "I will think about it carefully, thank you mother."
