Chapter 767: unwilling
“Eldest princess, please be patient. I must finish what I have to say. Eldest princess, please do not embarrass me. After hearing what I have said, I will not interfere with your attitude towards the eldest princess.”
Xie Yunshu didn’t want to speak so straightforwardly, but she couldn’t communicate with the eldest princess otherwise.
The eldest princess’s attitude is too fierce.
After hearing what Xie Yunshu said, the eldest princess was stunned for a moment, "What does the Crown Princess mean?"
She had a bad premonition for no reason.
Xie Yunshu looked at her: "The prince does not need to use the eldest princess's marriage in exchange for benefits, and there is no need to deliberately embarrass the eldest princess. The eldest princess thinks, why would I mention this matter to the eldest princess?"
The eldest princess choked: "."
It’s the father!
She felt a chill in her heart, and it was freezing to the bone.
She did not give up: "Is this what your father meant?"
If Xie Yunshu had taken advantage of the situation and deliberately guided her with threats and inducements, the eldest princess might have agreed to it if she had mistakenly thought that this was her father's intention.
But first of all, Xie Yunshu doesn't bother to do such a thing, and secondly, what this marriage requires is willingness and initiative, and more importantly, a certain amount of intelligence, broadmindedness, and character. The eldest princess is really not suitable.
She then told the story she had discussed with the prince.
The pros and cons of getting married, how much the emperor values this matter, if he is willing, what he will have to pay, what he will do, what he will work hard to learn from now on, etc., etc. were all explained in detail.
Her mouth was dry as she spoke, and the eldest princess listened impatiently—probably because of her father, otherwise she would have had a seizure and chased people away.
It was impossible for her to take the initiative to order tea to be served. The eldest princess would not be so kind to her, so Xie Yunshu ordered the maid to serve tea. She did not want to wrong herself.
Moisturize your throat and continue speaking.
We talked back and forth for more than half an hour.
"Princess, there is no need to rush to give me the answer. You might as well think about it carefully. In two days, the palace will come back and ask the eldest princess what she thinks. This is a good opportunity. It is not an exaggeration to say that she will leave her name in history. The eldest princess must think carefully. ”
The eldest princess sneered lightly, obviously not taking Xie Yunshu's words to heart, "It's rare that Second Sister-in-law has sat here with me for so long and said so many words to me! Second Sister-in-law will come back in two days, and I will think about it carefully."
Does this kind of thing still need to be considered? She wished she could give her an answer right now and reject it flatly.
But since her father is involved in this matter, she will always have to show off.
If it is really a good thing, where will it be my turn? I'm afraid the Crown Princess had already intercepted it and told Yuxiu. She has always been much kinder to Yuxiu than to herself.
Xie Yunshu saw it through at a glance and felt relieved, "Okay, I'm waiting for good news about the princess!"
“Go slowly without seeing someone off.”
“By the way, please keep this matter secret, Princess, and remember to mention it to outsiders.”
“Second sister-in-law, don’t worry!”
Of course she wouldn't mention it, she would only mention it if she was stupid. She didn't want to have anything to do with this matter.
When Xie Yunshu went back and told the prince, the prince smiled and did not find it strange at all.
"Thank you for your hard work, Shu'er. We have said everything that needs to be said. Shu'er will go there again in two days."
Xie Yunshu nodded: "Do you have someone to choose for the crown prince?"
She was really a little curious about who the prince would choose in the end.
The prince glanced at his daughter-in-law, who had eyes wide open and full of curiosity, and smiled a little. He hugged her and sighed: "It's not easy to choose. Now we are sending people to secretly search and inquire. First, see if there is anyone suitable in the clan. If not, the powerful officials will Homes are also available, and it is better to have them in short supply than in excess. If they are not suitable and difficult to advance, we can only take our time. If there are none in the capital, then look for them in other provinces!"
Xie Yunshu believed deeply, "It can't be done overnight. The prince is very thoughtful." The three major tribes and the three small tribes cry out for poverty every year. If the property they want to take away from Daxuan is converted into silver, it will be nearly one million, and occasionally more than one million, every year. Years like this.
With such a huge amount of wealth involved, how can we be too cautious?
One bad thing will make the three big and small people unwilling to resent each other, and a good thing will turn into a bad thing. In the worst case, the two parties may even get into a fight. That will be a big trouble!
This is something no one wants to see, and it is something the emperor will never allow to happen.
If the prince can successfully accomplish this, his position in the heart of the emperor will never be replaced by anyone.
After all, where can the emperor find a prince as gentle and tough, tolerant and calm, loyal and filial, and strategic as the prince?
The prince never seeks the limelight. Only the emperor knows how good he is and what his talents are.
His filial piety and respect for the emperor are only known to the emperor.
The emperor is afraid of no one but him.
But if this cannot be done, it is hard to say what the consequences will be.
So we must be more cautious.
Two days later, Xie Yunshu went to see the eldest princess as promised.
The eldest princess looked calm and said without waiting for Xie Yunshu to ask: "Second sister-in-law, I have thought about it. I don't have the ability to take on such a big responsibility. If something goes wrong, things will be bad, and I will feel guilty. So, second sister-in-law, please tell the prince to look for someone else."
I don’t know who taught her to say these words, but they are barely reasonable.
“Have you really thought about it, princess?”
“That’s right, I have been thinking about it for two days and have already decided it!”
"I have made it clear to the eldest princess what I need to say. In this case, let this be settled."
The eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief and didn't mind saying a few nice words: "The prince has always been very smart and capable. I think he will definitely be able to find a suitable candidate!"
“Well, I’d like to lend my eldest princess auspicious words.”
“I still have some things to do. I think my second sister-in-law is also busy, so I won’t keep my second sister-in-law here.”
The eldest princess couldn't wait to see her guests off, fearing that Xie Yunshu would stalk her.
“Princess, please!”
Xie Yunshu sighed secretly. The eldest princess is short-sighted, and she doesn't know if she will regret it in the future.
Xie Yunshu did not expect that when she left the eldest princess, she would be stopped by the second princess.
The second princess asked her to sit down and took the initiative to mention the marriage: she wanted to go.
Meng Yuxiu also expressed her willingness to accompany the second princess.
Xie Yunshu was stunned, this—
The second princess is fifteen this year. If she gets married next year, she will only be sixteen. The eldest princess will be nineteen next year. It's not good to be in such an environment suddenly when you are too young. When the prince chooses among his relatives, he also tries his best to choose something larger.
Besides, the second princess is too gentle, a little timid, and with such a watery temperament, she is actually not suitable for this matter. It will be very difficult for her to establish her authority. Even with the support of Daxuan, after all, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Who knows if the people from the Huter tribe will bully her?
The tribesmen outside the Great Wall are quite rough and unruly in temperament and behavior. Can the gentle and gentle Second Princess really cope with it? (End of chapter)
