BXBX NOVEL Chapter 95 - 95: If Prime Minister Jiang dares to marry her off, the child will dare to marry her.
On the way back in the carriage, Madam Wenren shook her head: “This girl, she looks just like her mother, so incredibly beautiful.”
Wenren Zong said, “Is it bad to be beautiful?”
“What’s the use? She’s already married to the Prince of Yu.”
“The Prince of Yu has divorced her.”
“Thirteen, don’t trouble your mother. I know you can’t possibly marry her. She’s carrying the child of the Prince of Yu; our Wenren Family would never stoop to that. Besides, His Majesty would never allow it.” Madam Wenren said.
Wenren Zong said, “Mother should know that the Prince of Yu is the most powerful opponent of the King of Chen.”
“That’s true, but… do we, the Wenren Family, really want to get involved in this? If we fail, the consequences would be unimaginable.” Madam Wenren shook her head slightly.
Wenren Zong said, “From the day you married Eighth Sister to the King of Chen, we, the Wenren Family, have had no choice.”
Madam Wenren sighed, “Speaking of which, this girl from the Jiang Family would be quite a match for you. It’s a pity we were a step late. With her situation… don’t think about it.”
Wenren Zong said, “If Prime Minister Jiang dares to marry her off, I dare to marry her.”
“Does he dare?”
“Why wouldn’t he? We’ve already come out to meet each other, haven’t we?” Wenren Zong said, “By the time we left the teahouse, there had already been five groups of followers nearby. Those who should know probably already know.”
“So, you’re really going to marry her?”
“Seventh Miss Jiang is as beautiful as a flower and has a gentle temperament, I think she’s great.”
“But she’s been married and has a child.”
“Mother, when you married father, didn’t you also have Eldest Sister with you?”
Madam Wenren smiled and scolded, “You’re good at poking at people’s wounds.”
“Your son wouldn’t dare.” Wenren Zong sat up straight, looking serious, “I just think it doesn’t matter. I believe Mother wouldn’t think that a woman who has been married and had a child no longer has the right to marry again.”
“My objection isn’t because she’s been married, nor is it because of her leg disability.” Madam Wenren said calmly, “I object because your motive is impure.”
Wenren Zong raised an eyebrow slightly.
Madam Wenren said bluntly, “You’re not marrying her because you like her, but to help King Chen suppress Prince of Yu and to disgust Prince of Yu. I can understand your position as a courtier assisting King Chen’s plans, but you shouldn’t gamble your own lifelong happiness for this. It’s not fair to Seventh Miss Jiang either.”
Wenren Zong said, “Mother, do you think that the Prince of Yu married Seventh Miss Jiang because he likes her?”
“It’s not my place to comment on what others do. But you’re my son, and that’s why I’m talking.”
“Mother, you’ve said that Seventh Miss Jiang is very good.” Wenren Zong said, “Can you be sure that the girl chosen for me at home would definitely be someone I like?”
Madam Wenren was speechless.
Of course, she couldn’t guarantee that.
“But you’re marrying her for your own purpose. That’s not good.”
“Purpose and liking are not necessarily conflicting.”
“What do you mean?”
“Since Seventh Miss Jiang is so good, why does Mother think that I wouldn’t grow to like her in the future?”
“I can’t win against you.” Madam Wenren snorted, “If you have the courage, go ahead and marry her. Let’s see if the Prince of Yu can spare you.”
Wenren Zong smiled, “As long as Mother agrees.”
“What’s there for me not to agree to? When you bring your wife home, it’s not like she’ll be living with me. This pampered girl from the Jiang Family won’t be easy to serve. You’d better not regret it..”
