Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 71 Marriage
"A Luan."

Mrs. Li stared fixedly at Li Taiwei, a little hesitant to speak.

"Grandma has something to ask you."

Li Taiwei was surprised, since she could remember, Mrs. Li seldom called her baby name, she raised her eyes to see the solemn look in her grandmother's eyes, and said:
"Grandmother please speak, granddaughter listen."

Mrs. Li seemed to have considered it before hesitatingly said:
"I heard from your father that you don't want to enter the palace, but are you serious?"

Without waiting for Li Taiwei to nod, Mrs. Li went on to say:
"Your Majesty's praise of our Li family this time is not only because of your father's deep emperor's heart, there is another layer. It can only be you!"

"Your mother's family is strong, and the King of Xiliang gave you the title of princess. Your status is unspeakably noble, and you are no better than the noble daughters of other families in the capital!"

Mrs. Li twisted the beads in her hand and sighed:
"I should not have said this to you as a grandmother. Although your marriage has not yet been decided, His Majesty may have already regarded you as the best candidate for the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace. Grandma told you this." If so, do you understand what I mean?"

"Your mother is straightforward and has always spoiled you. Your father also regards you as a treasure. As long as you say no, they will give up this honor and salary in exchange for your smooth and happy life. With the Li family and the Xiliang royal family standing, if this matter goes wrong, it will involve a lot of people. You have to think carefully, and you must not follow your temper."

Li Taiwei silently listened to Mrs. Li's words from the bottom of her heart, sat up straight and looked at her grandmother, and asked:

"Then what does grandma think? Are you willing to let Aluan enter the palace?"

Mrs. Li was startled for a moment, looking at the yellowish leaves hanging on the sycamore branches outside the window, she said slowly:
"Grandmother knows the loneliness of the deep palace, a place that eats people and bones, but if there is a way, I don't want your father to send you to the palace! The honor and salary of our Li family don't have to be exchanged with the lifetime of our children and grandchildren."

"But if your father finds a way to reject this royal family, how will you deal with it in the future? Have you ever thought about which family would dare to marry our family?"

Mrs. Li's worries are not unreasonable.

Right now the Li family is very powerful and very favored, if Li Taiwei fails to marry the crown prince, and then marries with other dignitaries, His Majesty will fear him.

After all, your heart is unpredictable
In the previous life, Li Taiwei killed his father's concubine at the mourning hall of Zhaohe, after all, he hurt his reputation, and the marriage was over.After she returned to Xiliang for five years, when she re-entered Beijing, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had already contracted the epidemic and passed away. She was a bit older, but she did not encounter such troublesome things.
Li Taiwei lowered his eyelids, fiddled with the tassels hanging from the jade pendant around his waist, and was silent for a while before raising his eyes and saying:
"Grandmother, let me think about it carefully."

"I really don't want to marry into the royal family, but if this matter brings disaster to our family, it's all the same who the granddaughter will marry."

"Besides, my mother is going to add a pair of younger siblings for me, even for their granddaughter, she will never do anything wrong."

After listening to Li Taiwei's words, Mrs. Li felt that her heart was very warm.

Originally thought that Li Taiwei's reluctance to marry into the royal family had other thoughts, which made Mrs. Li secretly worried for a long time.But at the moment, what Li Taiwei said was straightforward and calm, a big stone in Mrs. Li's heart finally fell to the ground.

This granddaughter who has been loved and hated by her since she was a child has really grown up.Being extremely intelligent and sensible, Mrs. Li suddenly felt somewhat regretful in her heart, had she been too strict with Li Taiwei these years?So that there are very few times when grandparents and grandchildren are so intimate.

Thinking about it again, Li Taiwei will be fifteen years old this year, and in October next year, she will probably marry out of the house.If she really married into the Eastern Palace, she would not even be able to go back to visit her relatives in the future, and she would no longer be able to play tricks in front of her.
Mrs. Li raised her hand to caress Li Taiwei's head, her eyes were moist:
"The matter of left and right has not been decided yet, maybe there will be variables in His Majesty's place."

"Furthermore, with your agility and courage, you still have our Li family and the Xiliang royal family behind you. Even if you really enter the East Palace, you don't have to worry about it. You don't have to be short in front of the crown prince." Cut it off!"

Li Taiwei nodded, she knew all these truths.

It's just that. In this life, suddenly faced with the possibility of marrying the prince Li Taiwei, I still feel somewhat awkward.

Not to mention whether the prince's short life in the previous life can be changed in this life, even if he can live a long life, it is hard to say whether he and her can live together in harmony.

She walked around the palace since she was a child, and often met the prince Minghua, but she always regarded him as an elder brother in her heart, and she really didn't have any thoughts about Minghua that a girl should have.
Besides, the prince abides by etiquette, is upright and upright, and devotes all his attention to government affairs. Facing Li Taiwei's peerless face, his gaze is as open as looking at cabbage and tofu.

Li Taiwei still remembered being punished when she was young, holding a pile of rice paper and begging Chang Ping to copy the books for her, when the prince happened to pass by, she asked Chang Ping to urge her to help.Minghua looked at her with the expression Li Taiwei felt that this person was embarrassing almost instantly!I can't go to one place with her!

Li Taiwei was in a good mood, thinking that the left and right princes didn't look like a womanizer, if she really became a princess, she would kill all those concubines who dared to come forward to trouble her in the future According to the prince's temperament, maybe he might not be able to find out how many women are missing in the backyard, right?

Thinking about it this way, Li Taiwei also felt much calmer.

"You have to go to Jin Yushi's mansion for a banquet in the afternoon today, are your clothes and jewelry ready?"

Seeing that Mrs. Li was silent for a while, Mrs. Li changed the topic.

Li Taiwei regained consciousness, nodded, and said:

"Mother asked Nian Xia to make all the arrangements, and the gifts were prepared early in the morning."

Mrs. Li nodded her head, then turned around and told Nanny Sun to set the meal earlier today, and left Taiwei Li to eat in Hua'an Hall.

Nanny Sun responded with a smile, and hurried out of the front hall to make arrangements.

Seeing that all the people had retreated, Mrs. Li remembered something and approached her and said:

"Do you know who I met at Fahua Temple yesterday?"

Li Taiwei raised her eyes to see Mrs. Li's mysterious appearance, a little surprised.

"Who did Grandma meet?"

Mrs. Li's eyes immediately glowed:
"The wife of Dali Temple Qing Changhai!"

"She took the six girls from the family with her. She seemed to be called Sister Fang. She was doing a few days of cleaning at Fahua Temple. On that day, she happened to meet me and chatted a little bit."

When Mrs. Li said this, she couldn't help curling her lips, snorted coldly, and said:
"Sounds good! Come to pray for the elders in the family, who knows that you have lost face and come to the temple to hide?"

"The ancients said it well, there is no impenetrable wall in this world! It's also to blame for his family's misbehavior. These juniors are actually sneaky, treacherous and slippery! If it wasn't for their family's intention to pick things up, your second brother That day will not almost suffer a big loss!"

Li Taiwei knew in her heart that the old lady was holding back her resentment because the Third Young Master Chang joined forces with Prince Chun's son to block Li Pu that time!
The fact that the sixth girl of the Chang family fell into the water and was rescued by the eldest prince was probably spread by the elder cousin later.Since the Chang family wanted to muddy the pool of water in Shengjing City, how could they let him be alone?

Right now Chang Siqing's life is not going to be easy, originally standing next to the big tree in Duanjun Wangfu, standing on the side of the fourth prince, and then sent her daughter to the eldest prince's pillow in a blink of an eye. Duanjun Wang is not a good person!

Mrs. Li narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled, before she planned to say a few words of comfort, when she heard Mrs. Li say quietly:

"Speaking of which, that day was really thanks to the prince Changping. That junior not only looks good, but also has an extraordinary bearing! I heard from your second brother that his martial arts are also superb, tsk tsk, he is really good."

Li Taiwei was a little worried when he heard it, thinking that you, old man, are thinking about the sweet-scented osmanthus wine from Jinling again, right?
Cursing her lips, she naturally didn't dare to say these words, Li Taiwei casually picked up a piece of sugar cake, and took a hard bite.
