Chapter 31 Looks Interesting
The princess was silent for a long time, obviously unable to react. If we talk about the relationship between Yun Hance and me in terms of marriage, I guess no one would not be shocked. We have been bickering with each other since we were young, and there are rarely any warm moments between us. At least that's my impression.
It is really shocking that two people who have been at odds with each other since childhood suddenly get married one day.
The princess reacted quickly: "Ranran, do you agree too?"
I slowly raised my head and looked into those eyes. There was worry and nervousness in his eyes, probably because he was afraid that I would not agree.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, his anxiety, paranoia and serious illness in his previous life are understandable. In his previous life, he tried so hard to climb to a high position. In order to become the emperor's most trusted person and the sharpest knife in his hand, he didn't know how many people he had killed and how much effort he had put in. And the people who supported him to climb up step by step were just me who wanted to climb up and he wanted to be my high branch.
But I went to the East Palace as soon as I turned around, and all his efforts were in vain. Later, I suffered a lot in the palace. He tried his best to avoid Xiao Jue and take care of me quietly. In the end, for my sake, he even rebelled against Prince Yongping, just to save me. But he was about to take me away, and I was killed again. So I can understand his paranoia and mental disorder. Because he was too obsessed, he wanted to keep me by his side.
I looked at the expectation in his eyes, nodded and smiled: "Yes, I agree, I like him, Yun Hance."
After Yun Hance heard what I said, a soft smile suddenly appeared in his eyes, and his chest kept rising and falling, obviously he was too nervous just now.
The princess was naturally happy to see this happen: "Okay, Ranran has been my daughter since she was a child, so I am naturally very happy. Don't worry, mother will discuss it with Mianmian as soon as possible and arrange the marriage first!"
Yun Hance bowed again: "Thank you, mother. Ah Ce has something else to do, so I will leave first!"
The princess knew that he was working for the emperor, so she didn't keep him.
Yun Hance looked at me again before turning and leaving.
The princess stroked my hair and said lovingly, "Tomorrow the eldest princess will send an invitation to go to appreciate the chrysanthemums. You and Miaomiao will accompany me then."
When I heard this, my mind was filled with a bunch of young girls gossiping about other people and comparing themselves to each other. If I went with them, I would be laughed at just like last time in the academy, and I might even ruin the chrysanthemum banquet.
“Princess, can I not go? Yun Hance is not the Crown Prince anyway, so the Crown Prince’s wife can go in the future.”
When the princess heard me refuse, she was not angry: "Silly boy, although A Ce is not a prince, do you think his status in the future will be lower than that of a prince? The prince told me privately that the emperor plans to make A Ce a general after he gets married. If he wins a few battles in the future, it will be no problem for him to be made a marquis. So when you get married, you have to live separately!"
I nodded resignedly. There was nothing I could do since Yun Hance was too capable and the emperor valued him, so I let him go.
After being reborn, I said I just wanted to lie down, but in the end I couldn't. I originally wanted to stay away from these powerful people, but in the end I accidentally became one of them.
When I returned, Yunyin stuffed a bag of silver in my hand and said, "The master told you to spend it freely. Just buy whatever you want to eat."
I reached out to take it, and weighed it casually. It should be no less than a hundred taels. I thanked him and turned back to my room.
I always couldn't sleep at night, and I seemed to be dreaming, but soon the dream was disrupted, and I couldn't tell what I dreamed about until I woke up in the morning.
I got up, changed my clothes, and went to the palace to wait to follow the princess to the chrysanthemum banquet. When the carriage stopped at the princess's palace, the princess got off the carriage first, and Miaomiao and I followed behind.
The eldest princess was very polite to the princess and immediately asked someone to invite the princess and us over.
In my previous life, I didn’t have much chance to meet the eldest princess. I only knew that after Xiao Jue became emperor, her legitimate son Chu Fengque died in unclear circumstances, and the eldest princess became a nun in Qingxin Temple.
When I saw the eldest princess at this moment, she was indeed full of dignity, and her aura was even more powerful than that of the princess. She was the emperor's sister and grew up in the palace, where she was treated with dignity and wealth. The dignity on her body was naturally innate and she was influenced by it.
She looked to be in her thirties, with a crabapple hairpin stuck in the left side of her temple, her brows slightly furrowed, her eyes smiling, her skin as white as cream and as rosy as peach.
She greeted the princess: "A Ruo is here?"
The princess responded immediately and led us to salute the princess: "May the princess be well!"
I seldom have the opportunity to meet the powerful and wealthy, but in my previous life I was in the imperial palace, and the rules and etiquette were engraved in my bones, so the etiquette I followed at this moment was also very standard.
The eldest princess was the same age as the princess, and they looked very close. She held Miaomiao's hand and said, "I haven't seen Miaomiao for a long time, and Miaomiao didn't come to play."
Yun Miaomiao smiled and replied: "Miaomiao also wanted to come and see the princess, but the academy was closed a few days ago and I was not able to make time. Although the academy has been closed for the past few days, my second brother has to check the homework every day, so I dare not delay."
The eldest princess obviously likes Miaomiao very much: "You can't delay your studies. Is your second brother very strict with you? Does he beat you?"
Yun Hance's control over Yun Miaomiao was all Yun Miaomiao's fabrication. At this moment, she secretly glanced at me and shook her head, saying, "My second brother looks fierce, but he's actually a good person. He never hits me."
At first I didn't understand why she was looking at me, but after she said this, I understood. She originally wanted to complain about Yun Hance's cruelty, but now because I was here, she was afraid that I would complain, so she changed her words temporarily.
The princess lost herself in memories and said, "Your brother never beat you. When I was little, I was often beaten for not doing well in my studies."
The princess patted her shoulder and said, "Ayao, don't think too much. It's all in the past."
The princess seemed to suddenly realize that she had lost her composure, and she looked at me: "Who is this girl?"
I bowed and prepared to introduce myself, and the princess immediately took over the conversation: "It's Mianmian's daughter, Ranran."
The eldest princess looked at me carefully and praised me casually: "I haven't seen her for many years, but her features still look like hers."
The princess ordered us: "Go and take a walk. I will talk to the princess!"
Yun Miaomiao and I bowed together, and then we came out. There were many ladies in the garden. I asked Yun Miaomiao: "I think the princess seems to know my mother?"
Yun Miaomiao plucked a white chrysanthemum and smiled: "My mother and the eldest princess were close friends. Later, your mother married your father, and your mother and my mother became close, so naturally she got to know the eldest princess."
It was conceivable that she knew me, but I felt that the way she looked at me was very strange: "My mother, do you have any grudges with the princess?"
Yun Miaomiao thought for a moment and said, "I don't know. If you want to know, you can ask my mother or my second brother. My second brother has information that you can find out. There is nothing you can't find out."
I thought about it and decided, forget it, why bother investigating this? The eldest princess is a royal relative, she might know some secrets that she shouldn’t know and be silenced.
We walked along the winding corridor, and Yun Miaomiao lay beside the fish pond feeding the fish: "Ranran, when will your brother come back?"
I also lay by the fish pond, watching the little red goldfish fighting for food: "I don't know, but it will take at least half a month to get back from the border."
Yun Miaomiao said: "I wonder what new things Brother Zhan will bring back."
I saw that there was no smile on her face. In her previous life, Yun Miaomiao was married to Prince Yongping, who was the young man in blue who saved Shen Tingwan that day. He was Prince Yongping who rebelled with Yun Hance in the previous life.
After they got married, they were considered happy and contented, so she should have liked Prince Yongping, so her unhappiness was definitely not because my brother hadn't come back yet, so why was she unhappy now: "What's wrong with you?"
Yun Miaomiao turned her head and looked at me, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
"Miao Miao, my mother said you were here, but I didn't believe it. I didn't expect you to really come!"
Yun Miaomiao and I turned our heads at the same time. It was the eldest princess' only legitimate son, Chu Fengque. He was fair-skinned and had the silly look of a young man.
Yun Miaomiao also smiled at him: "My Lord, did you come here specifically to see me?"
Chu Fengque touched the back of his head and said innocently: "Well, I haven't seen Miaomiao for a long time. I got a few authentic works of famous artists and I'm waiting to appreciate them with you."
Yun Miaomiao hesitated for a moment, and Chu Fengque asked cutely: "What's wrong? Doesn't Miaomiao like Danqing very much?"
Yun Miaomiao pulled me and said, "Ranran, let's go together. You are also learning painting, so it's always good to see more."
I glanced at Chu Fengque, and he smiled at me in a friendly manner. I refused and said, "Miao Miao, you know I don't like Danqing, and I won't be able to see anything even if I go. You go with the prince, and I'll stay here to watch the fish!"
Chu Fengque was happy: "Miss Su likes fish, when you leave later, take two back to raise!"
I waved my hands quickly. This Chu Fengque seemed to be very honest, otherwise how could he have died in his previous life? I knew that when he said he would give me two fish, he must have meant it: "These fish look precious. I don't think I can keep them alive. They are just fun to look at. I'm afraid they will become rotten in two days if I take them back."
