"Use my marriage to help my brother, and talk about the Yu family..."
The Sixth Princess stopped talking abruptly, she pursed her lips and said no more.
I was just confused. How could I say this in front of Qin Wan?
The Crown Prince and his brother are originally opposites. Now he is saying these things to the Crown Princess and his sister-in-law. Isn't this making a fool of himself for them?
If they knew about their mother's plan and tried to interfere, the marriage would not go through. What would happen to my brother?
The Sixth Princess was very conflicted. She didn't want to use her marriage as a bargaining chip for her brother, but she also didn't want the Crown Prince to ruin the marriage and ruin the plans for her mother and brother.
The Sixth Princess felt extremely conflicted for a moment.
Qin Wan looked at the Sixth Princess and sighed in her heart. This child, if she doesn't want to say it, then don't say it. Now she has said half of it. If their marriage fails in the future, won't she blame it on her?
Qin Wan didn't want to take the blame. Thinking of the Yu family, a smile spread across her lips. "Sixth sister, you mean the Yu family? I know who it is. It's the Prince's Grand Tutor, the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, Master Yu, right? He's currently editing books in Wuying Palace?"
The Sixth Princess looked flustered: "You, what do you want to do?"
Qin Wan smiled at her soothingly, "I know the young master of Lord Yu's family. Although I don't know his temperament, I've heard that he's a very elegant gentleman. I've even had the good fortune to see him from afar. He has a handsome face and a refined temperament. I think he's a good match for Sixth Sister."
The Sixth Princess couldn't help but be drawn to Qin Wan's words and asked, "Really?"
Qin Wan nodded, but then frowned. "Of course I take it seriously, but no matter how much I've heard, it's just hearsay. This is the person who will be with me for the next few decades. I think I should see for myself if she's the right person for me."
After saying this, she sighed deeply and said, "You all know my experience. I made it in a panic, which led to eight years of wasted time and a lot of hard work before I finally succeeded. You are a princess, you shouldn't have to go through this."
The Seventh Princess glanced at Qin Wan from the side and thought to herself, "What the Crown Princess said is quite skillful. Isn't it like peeling off a layer of skin?" She pursed her lips and didn't laugh out loud.
Qin Wan didn't notice anything strange about the Seventh Princess, and she didn't know what she was thinking. If she knew, she would only say that she lost her life in the previous life, so how could the eight years in this life not be a waste of her life?
Seeing the Sixth Princess's expression become serious, Qin Wan asked sincerely, "Did the Imperial Concubine arrange a matchmaking for you? Although it might not be in accordance with the rules, you can still have some contact. You should have more contact so that you can know if the other person is your soulmate."
When the Sixth Princess heard Qin Wan say this, she let down her guard. If she didn't want to promote this marriage, she would directly tell her how bad the Yu family was, making her feel rebellious, and naturally the marriage would be cancelled.
Now she lets herself see it instead of talking about it to herself, so she is a good person, right?
The Sixth Princess spoke the truth: "Just a few days ago, Madam Yu was allowed to enter the palace, and I met Madam Yu."
After saying that, she continued, "Sister-in-law, do you have any ideas? Can you let me meet with the young master of the Yu family?"
Qin Wan frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "I do have a way, but I'm afraid the Imperial Concubine won't let me take you out. Your brother can take you out, though. But..."
Qin Wan looked at the Sixth Princess and said seriously, "I also treat you as my own sister. I'll be frank with you. The matter of seeing each other is of great importance. I can't take the lead in this matter. Only your fourth brother can take the lead."
"But since your brother is in charge, I'm afraid he'll invite some irrelevant people along. There will be too many people and it's inevitable that they'll bump into you."
Qin Wan's words were quite subtle, almost saying it out loud. The Fourth Prince was trying to win over court officials, and his behavior was ugly. He hoped that the visit would not just be a visit, but a gathering with ulterior motives. How would the Sixth Princess cope with the situation then?
How could the Sixth Princess not understand her brother? She was silent for a long time before asking, "Does my sister-in-law have any good ideas?"
"Of course there are good ways." Qin Wan took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "That would be to invite a few close friends to go out and play together. For example, your fourth brother can invite the eldest prince, the third prince and others. From the Yu family, the eldest and youngest sons of the Yu family can bring their eldest young mistress. I can also invite my two married sisters from my mother's family."
"This way, we can have both men and women together, so it won't be awkward for everyone to be together, and there's a good reason. If it works out, that's all the better. If it doesn't, it's just a group of friends hanging out together, so it won't affect you much. What do you think?"
The Sixth Princess hesitated. On the one hand, she felt that Qin Wan was right, but on the other hand, she felt that Qin Wan was standing on the opposite side of her. Wouldn't it be bad for her to come up with such an idea?
Seeing that she was undecided, Qin Wan smiled and said, "Why don't you go ask your fourth brother? If he agrees, I will take you out of the palace."
When the Seventh Princess heard that they were going to leave the palace, her eyes lit up and she quickly asked, "Sister-in-law, where are we going to play?"
Qin Wan heard what the Seventh Princess meant and wanted to go along. After a moment's thought, she said, "It's cold now, and there's no snow. There's no place to enjoy the snow. As for enjoying the flowers, there are a few manors outside the capital where the plum blossoms are in full bloom."
The Seventh Princess immediately started to plan, "How about letting Big Brother and the others go hunting while we enjoy the flowers and eat the game for lunch? We'll roast the meat and come back after we're done."
After the Seventh Princess finished speaking, she looked at the Sixth Princess with sparkling eyes and said, "Go and tell your Fourth Brother quickly, and then tell your Mother, and make sure they agree to let us leave the palace. We have never left the palace in our lives."
The Eighth Princess and the Ninth Princess also looked at the Sixth Princess with scorching hopes in their eyes.
The Sixth Princess gritted her teeth and agreed, but she didn't dare to promise: "I'll give it a try."
The Seventh Princess immediately looked at Qin Wan again and said, "Sister-in-law, would you mind bringing the Eighth and Ninth Princesses along?"
Qin Wan looked at the two little princesses.
Several princesses had never left the palace. The seventh princess and the eldest prince would bring them some new things from the outside world and tell them new stories about the outside world. The eighth and ninth princesses had no brothers or sisters, so they could not hide their yearning for the outside world.
Qin Wan softened her heart and nodded: "Okay, if it's feasible, then let's all go. I'll call a few sisters of your age to play together."
“Thank you, sister-in-law!”
The eighth and ninth princesses were so happy that they almost flew up, but they were bound by the palace rules. No matter how happy they were, they only raised the corners of their lips and thanked them reservedly. The joy in the corners of their eyes and eyebrows could not be concealed.
After the Sixth Princess returned, she wrote a letter to ask the Fourth Prince about dating. As a girl, she is always shy when talking about marriage, but marriage is a matter of life and death, so no matter how shy she is, she has to write a letter to ask for marriage.
The Fourth Prince frowned when he received the letter.
Upon seeing this, the Fourth Prince's wife took the letter and read it. She immediately became unhappy: "It really makes her look bad! This is our own sister, why let outsiders worry about it? And you even invited the eldest prince and the third prince. In my opinion, we should invite the Minister of Rites, Lord Sun, and the Doctor of Works, Lord Zhou..."
