Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

 Chapter 325 A troublesome marriage

Because the marriage of the crazy eighth princess Qingyuan has not been settled, the marriage of the ninth princess Qingluan has also been delayed.

The old lady has been worried about her granddaughter's marriage. The old man also knew Qingluan's temperament well, and originally had the idea of ​​​​promising her to her grandson Li Xiang. When she married into her grandmother's house, her family would always take care of her in everything. However, a few years ago, the Holy Father graciously allowed Qingluan to stay in the palace for a while. When the old lady learned that her granddaughter was obsessed with her grandson Li Ling, I... People just give up this thought completely.

But now seeing that his granddaughter has been delayed to the age of almost 10, Emperor Ming, the father, is not worried about this unhappy daughter, but the old lady, the grandmother, is very anxious. The old lady thought about it, and for the long-term plan of her precious granddaughter, she planned to marry her to her natal family, the Murong family in Jiangdong.

The old lady's biological brother Murong Wang's legitimate grandson Murong Feng is not yet married. Although he is two years younger than Qingluan, this grandnephew is outstanding in terms of character and talent. More importantly, he is the eldest grandson and will inherit the throne in the future. As for the throne, Qingluan will be the princess from now on, so it doesn't mean he has insulted the princess's granddaughter.

Although the Duke of Zhenguo was from her mother's family about the princess's marriage, if Emperor Ming didn't mention it, the Duke would naturally have no right to comment. When the old lady saw that Emperor Ming was still reluctant to discuss Luo Qingluan's marriage, she had no choice but to sacrifice her face to ask for her daughter-in-law. The eldest princess helps.

 The old lady has an extremely strong temper. Although her son married a princess, the princess's daughter-in-law played an important role in front of the emperor. But in all these years, the old lady has never spoken to the eldest princess as mother-in-law because of the government affairs. Now, for the sake of the only flesh and blood left by her youngest daughter, the old lady has made an exception for the first time.

The eldest princess has always respected the old lady. Now that her mother-in-law has spoken, she naturally has no reason not to agree.

The eldest princess went to the palace to explain the matter to Emperor Ming. Emperor Ming had been focusing on the seriously ill eighth princess in recent years and paid little attention to the unpleasant ninth princess. After hearing the eldest princess's proposal for a peaceful marriage, Emperor Ming didn't object, but as soon as the news reached Qingluan's ears, she cried and came to Emperor Ming, unwilling in every possible way.

Although after so many years, Qingluan has never stopped thinking about Li Ling. Naturally, she did not dare to tell Emperor Ming that she was obsessed with her foreign man, so rebellious, but she found many excuses to cancel the marriage. In short, She just cried and made a fuss and didn't want to marry to Jiangdong. In the end, the whole person became ill again.

Emperor Ming could not help but feel angry when he saw that his daughter was so ignorant, and simply stopped caring about this daughter who was always ready to die.

 When the old lady heard this, she couldn't help but feel worried again.

On this day, the old lady called her children and grandchildren to come and discussed with the family: "Since Qingluan is so resistant to this marriage, we can only give up." After saying that, the old lady looked at her daughter-in-law, the eldest princess, and said: "It's just that it's hard for Fu Xi, and I made you worry a lot in vain."

To be honest, although Qingluan is the niece of the eldest princess and has a relationship with the government, in terms of closeness, she is naturally the closest to Qingluan among all the nieces. But with such a noble temperament as the eldest princess, naturally I can't stand it because Qingluan can only cry and cry when he doesn't get what he wants, and doesn't look like a princess at all.

But after all, there is a relationship with the government, no matter how much she doesn't like it, in order to save face, the eldest princess will do her best: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, since Qingluan doesn't want this marriage, forget it, she is my niece , she is Ah Tian’s daughter again, I will definitely not stand idly by and watch what happens to her."

After hearing what the princess and daughter-in-law said, the old lady felt very comforted, and the sadness on her face dissipated a lot.

Except for the old lady and Li Ling Jingshu, no one else knew about Qingluan's mad love for Li Ling.

When Xu Wanning saw Qingluan rejecting such a suitable marriage, she couldn't help but regretted it and said quickly: "My cousin is not willing to have such a good marriage. Oh! I think it will be difficult to find someone more happy than this." It's over." As she said that, she looked at the old lady and asked, "I really wonder why my cousin is so resistant to such a suitable marriage."

The old lady sighed deeply. Although she felt helpless for her granddaughter's willfulness, she still wanted to make amends for her precious granddaughter: "This child has been weak-tempered since he was a child. Maybe he thinks Jiangdong is too far away, so he is so unwilling to give up." .”

After hearing this, Xu Wanning suddenly said: "Since the emperor's cousin is unwilling to marry far away, it seems that she can only look for one among the children of aristocratic families in the capital."

As soon as Pingyang heard this, he quickly lowered his head deeply and couldn't help but subconsciously shrank behind Li Xiang beside him.

Although there are many gentry families in the capital, there are only three or five families whose families are prominent enough to be worthy of their master. In addition to the famous Zhenguo Gongfu, it is her mother's family, the Lan family of Ningguo Gongfu. The old lady used to be with her She mentioned it before, but she declined it vaguely, and now that she mentioned it again, Pingyang was really afraid that this bad burden would fall on her.

It's not that she is indifferent and doesn't want to help the old man share his worries, but that the ninth princess is really not a good match. Although she is a princess, her family is far away in the vassal land, and her ancestral home in the capital is her biggest support. If she treats this crying girl If the ninth princess goes to her maternal grandfather's house, I'm afraid her maternal grandfather's family will resent her to death.

Pingyang's worries are not unreasonable. The old lady does have this intention.

Ning Guogong’s family was prominent and located in the capital, and Concubine Lan was the adoptive mother of Emperor Ming. Such a marriage was unintentionally the best choice.

However, when the old lady saw Pingyang's appearance, she guessed what her granddaughter-in-law was thinking. The old lady sighed deeply and couldn't help but feel sad. She said sadly: "I know Qingluan's temperament is indeed a bit delicate, but After all, she is the only bloodline left by your little aunt. If your little aunt had not understood the crisis in the palace, she would not have entered the palace, and she ended up dying miserably in the palace."

 As he spoke, the old lady couldn't help but shed tears again.

Li Ling couldn't stand what the old lady said the most. Seeing his grandmother's sadness, he said, "Grandma, don't be sad. If you are thinking about the emperor's cousin, I will hand a sign to the palace tomorrow. You can go to the palace to see your cousin."

Jingshu followed: "My decree has been issued. Once the palace approves, my granddaughter-in-law will accompany you to the palace."

Li Ling never thought that Jingshu would offer to accompany his mistress into the palace to visit Qingluan. Hearing this, he couldn't help but look at his wife with a worried look on his face, fearing that his wife would have some thoughts because of this. Not happy.

The grandson and his daughter-in-law must be responsible. After hearing what they said, the old lady showed a look of relief on her face.
