Wei Rong was not angry. He had been in this family for quite some time. How could he not know the rules of this family?
"It's okay. I'm just saying. A girl like Jinxiu is smart, capable, and pretty. There are many people who like her. I'm just saying it. You should think about it. They are all our sons and daughters."
Old Lady Xia nodded. "Jianqing is not bad either. He is young and will soon be a general. How many ladies from famous families would be eager to marry him? It's not that Jianqing is not good enough, but I'm afraid that the two children are not destined to be together."
"Of course it depends on the children's wishes." Wei Rong said: "If we force them, the children will be unhappy and how will they live their lives?"
This is what Old Mrs. Xia thought. Before, she didn't have the conditions, so it was good enough to be able to marry a wife. Now, if the children are willing, they can choose by themselves.
The Prince's Mansion held a banquet, and an invitation came from the Princess's Mansion. Xia Zhiliao calculated the time and shook his head to refuse.
"Don't you like lively places? Why don't you go?" Princess Yi Yang asked.
"I don't like everyone's lively atmosphere, but I can't go to this lively atmosphere."
[Calculating the time, I'm afraid that the Prince's Mansion's privately made dragon robes will be exposed soon, so I shouldn't join in the fun at this time. ]
"Grandma, if anyone else comes, you can tell them I'm sick."
Princess Yi Yang naturally wouldn't make things difficult for her. If she didn't want to go, then she wouldn't go. No matter whether she was the crown prince or the emperor, she wouldn't go.
"You don't like the prince? I see that you are only close to Wen Heng, Wen Yan and Wen Chao."
Xia Zhiliao did not deny it. "After becoming familiar with the three of them, I naturally became close to them. Grandma, can I ask you a question?"
Xia Zhiliao looked around and saw no one. She wondered if her grandmother would answer her.
"Go ahead. If you're curious, feel free to ask. Grandma won't be angry."
The novel only talks about Princess Yi Yang's support and care for the Queen Mother and her son, but if she had supported someone else at that time, it would not have been impossible.
And from this point of view, the empress dowager is a good one, but the emperor, although not bad, is not that good either. At least this person is cold-blooded and selfish, not the emperor in Xia Zhiliao's mind.
"Grandmother, why did you choose the current emperor?"
It was indeed a sharp question. Although Princess Yi Yang had expected it, she still didn't expect it to be like this.
"Do you think something is wrong?"
"No, no, I'm just curious. You could have chosen someone else to support at that time, right?"
Princess Yi Yang touched her head and said that this was only at home, but if it was outside, she couldn’t let anyone hear it.
"In that situation, I wasn't thinking about myself, but the world."
[My grandmother is so selfless. Compared to her, I seem to be quite inferior. This is what a princess should be like.]
"The late emperor passed away in a hurry and at a young age. The princes were not yet adults. I was only twenty years old. At that time, I just wanted to be legitimate. In addition, the emperor was trembling with fear at the time. Besides, this was also the late emperor's intention."
"If I make another choice, it would be rebellion. I don't have such an idea. I am just following the will of heaven."
Xia Zhiliao nodded and said, "Grandma, I actually have a bold guess, but I have never dared to say it."
"Let's talk about it. It's just the two of us, grandparents and grandchildren."
"Grandma, if what I said is wrong, you can just treat it as nonsense, okay?"
"What is Xiao Zhiliao trying to say? Why are you so cautious?"
Xia Zhiliao took a deep breath and said, "Grandma, I've always been curious about why Grandpa and you didn't get reinforcements during the border battle?"
Whether in the novel or in the descriptions of people around me, that war was extremely tragic.
It also directly caused the separation of her mother and grandmother.
Princess Yi Yang took a deep breath, she knew what the little girl was going to say.
She never doubted it over the years.
But if there is no doubt, does it really not exist?
"I understand. Don't tell these words to anyone again. That's it."
Xia Zhiliao nodded and said, "Grandma, I understand. I won't tell anyone, but I will definitely find out."
"No, Grandma will check it out herself."
"And who on earth prevented me from recognizing your mother?"
As Xia Zhiliao expected, the prince's private dragon robe was exposed within a few days. As a bystander, it naturally had nothing to do with her. She didn't even say a few words to the prince.
The crown prince was deposed and the new heir apparent was yet to be determined, so the older princes began to think about this.
Little did they know that the better these guys performed, the more the suspicious Emperor Shunde would think they wanted to be emperor.
But these have nothing to do with Wen Heng.
Xia Zhiliao hasn't seen him for many days.
Thinking of his residence which is comparable to the cold palace, I can't help but sigh.
Look at her big and bright house, it is almost filled with delicious and fun things.
The contrast between being pampered and being neglected is really obvious.
In the next few days, Xia Zhiliao smiled from ear to ear whenever she saw her grandmother. She felt a little regretful and wondered if she should not have told her about it.
And she doesn't have conclusive evidence, after all, she is still young, so she really can't participate in palace fighting, it will be easy to be eliminated.
Just thinking that the man was his grandfather, Xia Zhiliao's heart ached slightly.
There were continuous battles ahead and the enemy was fierce, but the reinforcements arrived several hours later than planned. If the reinforcements had arrived earlier, so many people would not have died and my grandfather would not have been in danger.
Since then, my mother has been missing and my grandmother has gone crazy.
Such a family that everyone envied just broke up like this.
Xia Zhiliao is just a little kid, and it’s too much trouble for her to investigate this matter alone. Besides, she doesn’t know anyone. The only person she knows, Wen Heng, is too busy to take care of himself.
How could she dare to tell the truth to the others?
Princess Yi Yang was brave and resourceful. Although she wanted to find out the truth, all the people involved at that time were either dead or injured, and they could not be found.
The more this happened, the more that terrible thought lingered in her mind.
How could that be?
How is that possible?
"Mom, eat more. Is it because your appetite is not good?" Chang Yue asked worriedly when she saw her mother was absent-minded while eating.
Princess Yi Yang came back to her senses. If she didn't pursue the matter, her family would be safe, but what about her dead husband?
"It's okay. I just dreamed about your father last night and was thinking about her. You've been back for some time. I plan to take your family to pay tribute to your father so that he can rest in peace in his grave."
"Well, I was thinking about that too."
Xia Jinjun nodded, "Of course, of course."
"If your father were still alive, it would be such a wonderful thing for our family to be together!" Princess Yi Yang couldn't help but sigh.
Chang Yue and Xia Zhiliao both looked at her, with heartache in their eyes.
