Chapter 409: Premeditated
Prince Xiang, Princess Xiang, and the Crown Prince have been worried about Jiacheng's temper since she was a child. They wondered whether she would be able to get married when she grew up and whether anyone would want her. Because no matter how they taught her, she never acted like a girl. She didn't know how to sit or stand properly and was always noisy.
When she was one year old, she ignored the pile of glittering gold objects and went straight to the jeweled dagger, holding it in her hand and couldn't let it go.
At that time, the emperor joked that she would grow up to be a woman who is as brave as any man. Now that she has grown up, it is unclear whether she is as brave as any man or not. It is true that all she thinks about all day long is fighting and killing.
After she came of age, the princess asked her several times if she had a man she liked, but she said that if she couldn't marry a man she liked, she would never marry in her life.
It dragged on until she was eighteen, and she still hadn't heard from anyone. Only now did she fall in love with Su Chen and show her deep love for him.
Seeing that General Su was also a little worried, and the two families were well-matched, the prince and princess naturally wanted to seize this opportunity.
The prince said that his sister was not virtuous enough and was afraid that he would look down on her. Su Chen disagreed a lot because he did not value this.
"The princess is very good, straightforward and lovely, without any pretense, which is really rare!"
In Su Chen's heart, Jiacheng is very cute, innocent, and carefree. It's not tiring to be with such a person.
In fact, he had a special liking for the princess. Ever since she kissed him that time, he would sometimes even dream about her at night. It was really embarrassing.
"In that case, is General Su willing or not? Can you give me a definite answer?" The prince only wanted to hear one result.
Upon hearing this, Su Chen clenched his hands unconsciously. If his future bride was Jiacheng, he would be willing in his heart. He couldn't even imagine how interesting the married life would be after Yaoshui married her. Thinking of this, he even had a vague little expectation in his heart.
However, the Crown Prince has been talking about this matter the entire time, but the Prince has not expressed any opinion from beginning to end. Could it be that the Crown Prince has the final say on the Princess's marriage?
Prince Xiang was not in the mood to play chess at the moment. His attention was always on Su Chen, so much so that he made several wrong moves and was already defeated.
"Your Majesty, I appreciate your kindness!"
After the game of chess, Su Jing won and bowed to the prince.
"Minister Su is an excellent chess player. I am ashamed to say I am not as good as him!" the prince said politely.
"It was Su's victory that was unfair. Your Majesty's mind was not on the chess game, otherwise, Su would not have been able to defeat you."
Having been an official for such a long time, Su Jing has long been accustomed to these polite official terms.
Su Chen had been looking at the prince intentionally or unintentionally, as if he would not speak, and he would be embarrassed to answer this question. The prince received the prince's eye signal, and then he smiled and said:
"General Su, Minister Su, the Crown Prince's intentions reflect the intentions of the Prince and the Princess. If General Su doesn't mind my daughter's vulgarity, a marriage between our two families would be considered a good match. If you agree, I will choose a date to ask His Majesty to grant the marriage. How do you do that?"
Good things cannot be delayed, and the palace mainly emphasizes efficiency.
"Your Majesty, would you allow me to go home and inform my parents first? As long as the princess is willing, I will also be willing. However, marriage is a serious matter, so I need to inform my parents and brothers at home."
When Su Chen said the last sentence, he even smiled embarrassedly with his head down. He is so innocent.
In fact, after Jiacheng kissed him, he wondered if he should take responsibility for her. But he was afraid that he was being too sentimental. The princess was born in a royal family and was a noble of good family background. He felt that he was not worthy of her and was afraid that he was marrying above his station.
This matter has been buried in his heart for some time, and he just didn't know how to solve it. Now that the palace has taken the initiative to bring up this matter and extended an olive branch, it is exactly what he wants, but he just doesn't know how to start.
It felt like there was a big stone in my heart, and suddenly it was unblocked.
He is also a very old-fashioned person and always feels that since he has such close contact, he should be responsible.
After all, Jiacheng is the first girl who treats him like this.
"Of course, that's what I should do. But since you said so, I'll take it as your agreement. It'll also be a good way to report to that girl. She's been so obsessed with this matter these past few days since I came back that she's been completely distracted. Will General Su spare some time to visit her?"
The prince was not restrained at all and was only concerned about the welfare of his daughter.
Su Chen was a little worried when he heard that Jia Cheng had no appetite for tea or food.
"Yes, I'll go see the princess in a moment."
Almost as soon as Su Chen expressed his attitude, Jiacheng received the news. The prince sent someone to report to her that General Su had agreed, but he still had to discuss it with his family and inform his parents.
General Su will come to visit the princess in person in a while.
Jiacheng was so excited that he almost jumped out of his seat. A medical miracle almost happened.
"Wanwan, did I hear correctly? General Su agreed so easily?"
When Su Wan heard the news, he was also quite surprised. He thought that with Third Brother's intelligence and temper, he would need some time to react slowly on his own. He didn't expect him to act so quickly this time. It turned out that it was all premeditated.
"Jia Jia, you heard me right. I said my third brother treats you differently. He likes you."
Jiacheng was so happy that he forgot himself and laughed like a silver bell.
She took Su Wan's hand and said to her solemnly:
"Then we will be sister-in-law in the future. Don't worry, I will love you very much."
She saw that everyone in the Su family was doing their best to love Su Wan, so she knew that Su Wan was the only one in the Su family who was loved by everyone, and as her sister-in-law, she should love her together with the Su family.
Su Wan chuckled and was amused by her.
They had just communicated and everything hadn't started yet, but Jiacheng had already put himself in the position of the third sister-in-law. She really didn't love him too much. Su Wan cried to death.
"What the hell is going on? From now on, just take care of my third brother."
She is about to get married, so how much time can she spend at home in the future?
Little did she know that Jiang Yu had already bought the house next door so that she could visit her parents' home more conveniently.
Jiacheng's old face turned red, and he pouted and said:
"I will take good care of him, don't worry."
Why did this sound so strange? Su Wan couldn't put his finger on why it was strange, but it was just strange.
"By the way, please send me to change into a brighter dress. My clothes are too plain and I don't have any jewelry on my head. General Su should be here soon."
Jiacheng suddenly realized that she was still dressed in home clothes, which did not look good at all. When her lover came, she would feel embarrassed to see her.
As the saying goes, women dress up to please themselves!
"Princess, it's too late. General Su is already on his way." The maid said helplessly.
Almost immediately after the news came from the other side, Su Chen had already set off, and the prince was also there.
