Chapter 172 Why bother clinging to Prince Anzheng?



Under the moonlight, as they moved south, she said, "Come here."

In the fragrant courtyard, the Prime Minister's wife accompanied the Southern Expeditionary Emperor to have breakfast.

"Mother, is there something you want to tell me?" Nan Qianyue asked with a faint smile.

The Prime Minister's wife put down her spoon, picked up a handkerchief to wipe her mouth, and looked gloomy.

"Qianyue, your mother will ask you one more time: do you really want to marry Prince Anzheng?"

Nanqianyue looked relaxed as she scooped up a large spoonful of white fungus soup and put it in her mouth.

She smiled and said, “Mother, marriage is not a mandatory choice in my life. Qin Yi is just an option I am willing to choose. I will only marry him if he can settle all the troubles around him, marry only me, and make a written guarantee.”

The Prime Minister's wife asked with some curiosity, "What written guarantee?"

The mystery surrounding the southward migration of Yuexiao: "You'll find out then, though of course, there might not be a time like that."

The frown between the Prime Minister's wife's brows finally dissipated, and she smiled slightly, "You are more insightful than your mother imagined. Your father and I have discussed it and agreed that if Prince Anzheng truly wants to marry you, we are willing to stand with him, even if it means fighting against the imperial power."

Nan Qianyue pressed down on the Prime Minister's wife's hand, "Mother, don't make it sound so serious. The old emperor might die at any time. I think his health is very poor."

"How can you talk like that?" the Prime Minister's wife scolded playfully, but her eyes held a smile.

She actually felt the same way, but she just didn't want to say it out loud.

"Tomorrow, the Duke of Lu's mansion will hold a camellia party to announce that Miss Lu has been adopted by the Duchess and will become the second legitimate daughter of the Duke's mansion. Otherwise, how can a concubine's daughter marry Prince Anzheng?"

"The Duke and Duchess of Lu are not power-hungry or profit-seeking people. This marriage was out of necessity. I know you may have some reservations. When you go to the Duke's mansion tomorrow, do not reveal anything and let others gossip about it."

"Can I not go?" Nan Qianyue actually doubted her own acting skills.

She had met Miss Lu before; she was a charming and lovely girl with a very kind heart.

"Of course not. They sent an invitation to the Prime Minister's residence, stating that they are inviting the Poet Immortal to grace us with his presence. Besides, everyone knows the rumors about you and Prince Anzheng. If you don't go, people will gossip about you."

The Prime Minister's wife elegantly smoothed her non-existent ear hair. "Besides, the Duke and Duchess intend to create opportunities for you and Young Master Lu to meet. Why don't you give them a try? Why cling to Prince Anzheng?"
