Besides, how much is Xiao Ziyan's promise worth?
“I will find a way to deal with my brother’s matter. You and Father don’t need to worry too much. As for the Second Prince… Father, please find a reason to refuse him.”
Granny Wang added a few pieces of charcoal to the brazier. Hearing this, she couldn't help but interject, "Why don't you reconsider, Miss? The Second Prince is currently very popular and has many ministers following him. If you follow the Second Prince, you'll have a lot of good fortune ahead!" Madam Qin nodded in agreement.
"Granny, you are mistaken. Fortune and misfortune are intertwined. Sometimes, too much smooth sailing is not a good thing. Who knows what might happen in the future?"
"Everything is still uncertain; it's too early to say such things!" She had great confidence in the boy, as long as she could ignite his fighting spirit...

She raised an eyebrow slightly: "No, I'm just a little surprised. How could a prince develop such a personality?" Truly shameless. Let alone the position of a concubine, she would not even be interested in the position of a principal wife.
"Are you referring to the Second Prince or the Third Prince, young lady?"
Xiao Ziwu… Hearing Lingqi mention the boy, Tianyun recalled the words he had spoken when they parted, and his anger instantly vanished, replaced by a sense of dejection.
She looked like a wilted hibiscus flower, and said weakly, "Don't pry into the affairs of adults. Go and get my candied hawthorns. I'm feeling a bit hungry again."
Lingqi covered her mouth and chuckled, "Miss, you're being cheeky again! I'm actually two years older than you!"
