Yao Jingxuan was drunk at the time, but she was sober the whole time.
She did not resist, but instead deliberately catered to him.
It would be more accurate to say that she took advantage of Yao Jingxuan's drunkenness and climbed into his bed rather than saying that Yao Jingxuan forced her.
In short, Yao Jingxuan never forced her, and she did everything willingly.
Seeing Wei Xinru's expression, Liu Qin understood.
Wei Xinru is willing!
Since the matter is done and Wei Xinru volunteered, they really can't put all the blame on Yao Jingxuan alone.
"Your Highness, how long can you keep this secret? When the pregnancy is advanced, your pregnancy will become apparent. Moreover, you will need a midwife for delivery, which will naturally alert other people. It is impossible for the prince to remain unaware of this forever." Liu Qin persuaded Wei Xinru and Wei Cunqing to confess.
Based on her understanding of Wei Cunqing, Wei Cunqing would not put all the blame on Yao Jingxuan without knowing the truth.
Wei Xinru doesn't need to be so afraid of Wei Cunqing, but she can also understand Wei Xinru.
Although Wei Xinru is Wei Cunqing's sister, Wei Xinru does not understand Wei Cunqing as well as she does, and she has not spent as much time with Wei Cunqing as she has.
"Sister Liu, what should I do?" Wei Xinru looked at Liu Qin with a pleading look.
At this moment, Wei Xinru looked like a helpless child, not the almighty Grand Princess.
Wei Xinru is only seventeen now, and in her eyes, she is still a child who has not experienced much of the world.
"Don't worry! I'll help you sound out the prince's attitude. As for you, you must absolutely not agree to the prince's request to recruit a prince consort. Your Highness, if you recruit a prince consort casually just because you want to save Yao Jingxuan, you will not only harm yourself and your child, but also the innocent stranger prince consort. Do you understand, Your Highness?" Liu Qin helped her analyze.
Wei Xinru nodded thoughtfully. Unless it was absolutely necessary, she would never choose to recruit a prince consort.
It’s Seventh Brother…
"Okay! I'll listen to Sister Liu!" Wei Xinru believed that Liu Qin would help her, so she was willing to follow Liu Qin's arrangements.
Not long after, the servants from the mansion came to invite them to have dinner.
During the meal, Liu Qin always took good care of Wei Xinru, and Wei Xinru also completely regarded Liu Qin as her close sister.
After dinner, Wei Cunqing sent someone to send Wei Xinru back to the princess's mansion. He couldn't wait to know what was going on between Wei Xinru and Yao Jingxuan.
"Seventh brother! You can't let Her Royal Highness the Grand Princess marry a man she doesn't like! I think Yao Jingxuan should be a good choice! Haven't you always admired Yao Jingxuan before? Why don't you want him to be Her Royal Highness's consort now?" Liu Qin hopes that Wei Cunqing will put aside these worldly prejudices.
So what if she was a criminal? Wei Xinru was the Grand Princess, and her status was noble enough.
Now that the Northern Han Dynasty has gradually stabilized, there is no need to sacrifice Wei Xinru to marry into the aristocratic family. It would be better to let Wei Xinru marry a man she likes.
Although Wei Xinru was a princess, she had suffered a lot because of the dethronement of the crown prince.
Now that Wei Wenyan is in power, she has become the high and mighty Grand Princess. Does she have to continue to suffer grievances and not even be able to make her own decisions about her own affairs and marriage?
Wei Cunqing frowned, "I really admire Yao Jingxuan, but he...his last name is Yao! Imperial Concubine Yao is the culprit who killed my mother and brother! How can Ru'er marry Imperial Concubine Yao's nephew?
Moreover, the Yao family has become a lowly family, how can he, a lowly person, be worthy of Ru'er?"
"Noble Consort Yao has been executed, and the Yao family has received the punishment they deserve. Yao Jingxuan's last name was not his own decision. When the Grand Princess suffered in Kyoto, it was Yao Jingxuan who always protected her.
If it weren't for his protection, Her Royal Highness the Grand Princess probably wouldn't have waited for you to enter the city. I can understand Her Royal Highness the Grand Princess's feelings.
"Seventh brother, is there really no room for negotiation on this matter?" Liu Qin looked at Wei Cunqing seriously.
If Wei Cunqing insisted on rejecting the marriage, she would not dare to tell Wei Xinru that she was pregnant.
She was afraid that if she told Wei Cunqing, he would use force to abort the baby in Wei Xinru's belly.
By then, she would become Wei Xinru's enemy.
She didn't want to get involved in these things! But Wei Cunqing insisted on dragging her into it!
"I..." Wei Cunqing hesitated, helplessly saying, "It's not that there's no room for negotiation! It's just that I'm unwilling to give in."
Liu Qin: ...
The one who got married was Wei Xinru, and the one who liked Yao Jingxuan was Wei Xinru. What was there for him to be unwilling about?
If you don’t know, you might think he wants to monopolize his own sister!
"What are you unwilling to accept? Her Highness will be happy if she marries the man she loves. As her brother, shouldn't you feel relieved?" Liu Qin couldn't understand his train of thought.
Wei Cunqing curled his lips. He was naturally pleased that Wei Xinru was happy, but... he didn't want Wei Xinru to have any relationship with the Yao family.
That’s all! Since Wei Xinru likes it, then he will fulfill Wei Xinru’s wish.
Yao Jingxuan is indeed different from the other members of the Yao family.
These days, he has been collecting evidence of the Yao family's crimes. From the head of the Yao family to the servants, everyone in the family has done many evil things, except Yao Jingxuan. He has no bad habits since he was a child, and has no other hobbies except training soldiers and practicing martial arts in the barracks.
Some time ago, the Yao family was in control of everything, and the people of Kyoto were suffering.
Yao Jingxuan also helped many people, and therefore disobeyed his own father Yao Can.
Considering that Yao Jingxuan had done nothing evil, he reluctantly agreed to this matter.
However, if Yao Jingxuan wants to marry Wei Xinru, he must first give up the surname Yao!
Otherwise, he would not agree to this marriage.
It depends on whether Yao Jingxuan is willing to give up his surname for Wei Xinru.
If he is willing, it proves that Wei Xinru was not wrong about him.
"Qin'er! Do you think I should help them?"
Liu Qin blinked, "Of course! If it were me, I would help them!"
When Wei Xinru was suffering and bullied, Wei Cunqing did not appear by her side to protect her. The person who protected her was Yao Jingxuan!
Now Wei Cunqing is running out to prevent her from getting married with the person she loves. Wei Cunqing is an incompetent brother.
"I know what to do. It's getting late, so go to bed early." After Wei Cunqing finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the study.
Liu Qin: ...
He knew what to do, but he didn't tell her?
Does he agree to Wei Xinru marrying Yao Jingxuan, or does he disagree?
Forget it, she shouldn't push too hard, otherwise Wei Cunqing would develop a rebellious mentality. She should give Wei Cunqing some time to think carefully.
Two days later, the rebellious Yao family members were exiled to Nanling, and Yao Jingxuan was among them.
Liu Qin and Wei Xinru watched them walk out of the city gate.
Liu Qin asked, "Your Highness, are you really not going to say goodbye to Young Master Yao?"
Although Wei Cunqing promised to arrange for Yao Jingxuan to return to Kyoto, that would be two or three months later. Would she really not go and say goodbye to Yao Jingxuan?
