"How can it be considered trespassing into someone else's house? Isn't this my sister-in-law's house sooner or later?"
Lu Baozhu sat opposite Qi Yuning very familiarly and patted the water droplets on her body.
Qi Yuning said, "If you keep talking nonsense about my sister-in-law or not, I'll ask the guards to ask you to leave."
Lu Baozhu said, "No, I won't talk nonsense anymore. Have you heard about my fifth cousin and Guan Zhiyi's engagement?"
"That's my brave and handsome fifth cousin. Isn't that Guan Zhiyi's advantage? She's two years younger than me. Wouldn't she have to call her fifth aunt in the future? I wonder what my great-aunt thinks?"
Lu Ze said, "As a junior, you don't need to interfere in the affairs of our elders."
Lu Baozhu snorted indignantly, "You can call me Fifth Aunt if you want, but I can't bring myself to call her that."
"Princess, Miss Song has sent a letter to come and pay her respects."
Qi Yuning looked at the raindrops outside which showed no sign of decreasing and said, "It's raining like this? Let her in quickly. Lingling, you can go next door with your father."
Qi Yuning was afraid that Lingling would call out "Papa" again when she saw Song Heqing.
Lu Ze understood and stood up, holding Lingling and going to the side.
When Song Heqing arrived at Qi Yuning's study, he saw Lu Baozhu was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said, "Greetings to Princess Lu."
Qi Yuning smiled and said, "No need to bow to her. Come and sit down. It's raining on this day. What brings you here?"
Song Heqing hesitated to speak.
Qi Yuning pointed at Lu Baozhu and said, "You go next door too."
Lu Baozhu looked at Song Heqing beside her and said, "I know you. You are the granddaughter of Taifu Song. Every time you see my uncle, the Crown Prince, you can't take your eyes off him. Do you like my uncle?"
Song Heqing's face flushed, "Lu, Princess Lu..."
Qi Yuning frowned and said to Lu Baozhu, "Let's go."
Lu Baozhu snorted softly, "I'm going to go play with Lingling."
After Lu Baozhu left, Song Heqing said to Qi Yuning, "Yuning, I really have no other choice, so I came to ask you for help. My mother wants to arrange a marriage between me and the eldest son of the Guan family."
Qi Yuning said coldly: "What is the status of the Guan family? How can they marry you?"
The daughters of the Guan family all married into wealthy families, so how dare the Guan family dream that Song Heqing would marry into a lower class and become their daughter-in-law?
Song Heqing's eyes reddened as she spoke, "After my grandfather passed away, even though my father was a fourth-rank official, he is still in mourning and his future is uncertain.
I'm not my mother's biological child. Seeing that the betrothal gift offered by the Guan family was quite generous, and my mother also noticed that the six sisters of the young master of the Guan family were all married to good families, and that my younger brother's connections in the officialdom could be used to gain an advantage in the future, she decided to marry me off to the Guan family..."
Song Heqing found it difficult to speak, but she still said with a blushing face, "It's embarrassing to say this, but you and I have been sisters for many years, so I won't hide it from you. I like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I have heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely choose a concubine in the spring of next year. Yuning, I want you to help me postpone my marriage until the spring of next year."
Qi Yuning looked at Song Heqing deeply. Lingling said that when she went to see Aunt Song, the bad guys pinched her neck.
So, did Song Heqing end up together with the prince?
However, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't ascend the throne after five or six years, his fate will surely be extremely miserable, perhaps imprisonment or exile...
Qi Yuning pursed her lips and said, "He Qing, I will help you postpone the marriage with the Guan family. I can help you delay it for a year or two, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really not a good son-in-law."
