Chapter 333 Xiao Yue’s Worries
Xiao Yue wanted to say that it was not a coincidence at all. Xiao Kun stood behind Ji Yunshu for a while before coming forward.
She was not an ignorant girl, so how could she not understand what the look in Xiao Kun's eyes meant when he looked at Ji Yunshu.
But seeing Ji Yunshu's calm expression, she didn't say anything after all, but just muttered: "He is my brother, we have the same surname."
Ji Yunshu: “…”
Xiao Yue was reminding her that she and Xiao Kun were from the same royal family, so even if they were seen together, there would be no gossip.
She smiled and said, "Okay, did you come here specifically to see me? What's the matter?"
Everyone is in the Linde Hall now, and there are not many people in the pool. Xiao Yue is not someone who likes to be alone, so the chance of running into her by chance is not high.
Speaking of this, Xiao Yue was about to cry: "My mother said that the emperor might let me marry Mo Bei."
Ji Yunshu was shocked. The Princess must have a reason for saying this.
Xiao Yue's marriage was something she wanted to change from the very beginning.
I didn't expect the result to be like this.
But thinking of what Zhao Shen had just said, she managed to calm down: "Why did your mother say that? Also, why hasn't your marriage been decided yet?"
Xiao Yue had just heard what her mother said. She had been feeling very uncomfortable after holding it in for a long time. She finally found someone to talk to. Ji Yunshu knew almost everything about her, so this little bit was not a big deal.
She said without hiding anything, "My mother said that two princes came from Mobei this time, and one of them must be for a marriage, and it's most likely the sickly fifth prince. There are no princesses in our royal family now, and I'm the most suitable among the clan members, both in age and status."
Ji Yunshu knew what the Princess had left unsaid.
Marrying a princess is not just about picking any girl, but also about considering her loyalty.
Otherwise, if the royal family colluded with Mobei by marrying off their daughters, it would be a big trouble.
Therefore, even if Prince Yong happened to send Xiao Ting, a girl of the right age to be married, the emperor would not consider letting her marry.
Ji Yunshu felt a little irritated: "So why aren't you engaged yet?"
The Prince of Lin'an's Mansion is loyal to the Emperor, and Xiao Yue's father and brother are both deeply trusted by the Emperor. If Xiao Yue is engaged, the Emperor will not consider letting her marry.
Xiao Yue stammered, "I...he asked me to wait for him."
Ji Yunshu was so angry at her that her head hurt. She must be crazy to want to save her love brain.
But when she thought of Lanting, she suddenly wasn't so angry anymore. Besides, it was hard to say how the marriage would turn out, so there was no need to rush.
She blinked and said, "Since you are willing to put the rest of your life in his hands, then see if he is really worthy of trust."
Xiao Yue was a little confused: "What do you mean by that?"
Ji Yunshu sighed. He was so stupid that he probably didn't even know he was being sold.
"Since Lanting asked you to wait, any unexpected situation that arises should be handled by him. Tell him directly about this matter and let him find a solution. Didn't you want to elope with him before? If that doesn't work out, this is not a bad idea."
Ji Yunshu also wanted to see how capable this person was.
She did not forget that Lanting belonged to Xiao Kun.
The moment she knew Xiao Kun was interested in her, she felt a sense of panic in her heart.
Even though it seems now, Xiao Kun has not done anything bad to her, and has even helped her many times behind the scenes.
But who knows what will happen in the future?
If possible, she would certainly try her best to find out more about Xiao Kun.
Ji Yunshu's words calmed Xiao Yue down a bit, although she knew that it was unreliable.
After all, if the emperor really issued an imperial decree to marry her to Mobei, she would not be able to elope no matter what.
Otherwise, everyone in the Prince's Mansion would be killed by her.
But things haven't reached that point yet, so we can still find a way.
She said somewhat plaintively, "You are the Empress Dowager's darling, and you are married to Zhao Shen, who is the Emperor's confidant. Can't you ask the Empress Dowager and the Emperor not to let me go to marry?"
Ji Yunshu glanced at her and said, "Your family is related to the Emperor. Your father and brother are both trusted by the Emperor. Why don't you ask your family to speak?"
Xiao Yue said aggrievedly, "How can we, as family members, talk about this kind of thing? Of course, we need someone else to act as a lobbyist."
Ji Yunshu poked her forehead and said, "You don't have much brains to begin with, so don't overthink it. Unless the emperor doesn't have that intention, it's useless for anyone to say anything. If you want to take advantage of me, you should go find Lan Ting. He's not as useless as you think."
Xiao Yue listened to her and lowered his head, saying, "I know he's not as simple as he looks, but what can he do when it comes to the marriage between the two countries?"
Ji Yunshu took her hand and said, "If you must marry him, you should learn to trust him. If there are any problems, you two should discuss and solve them together. Otherwise, it will be impossible for the two of you to overcome all difficulties and be together."
Although Ji Yunshu had ulterior motives, these words came from the heart.
She suspected that Xiao Yue in the book must not have told Lan Ting about this, or that Lan Ting did not know her true thoughts, so she ended up like that.
Of course, her guess was based on the fact that Lan Ting truly loved Xiao Yue and was willing to do anything for her.
Ji Yunshu returned to the banquet while thinking about this mess.
Zhao Shen saw that she was absent-minded and didn't know what she was thinking about. She didn't move for a long time, nor did she observe the people at the banquet with great interest as she had just now.
Playing with the wine glass in his hand, he asked, "What took you so long?"
Ji Yunshu replied casually, "I took a breath outside for a while, ran into Xiao Yue, and talked to her for a few words."
Zhao Shen understood and said, "Are you worried that the Emperor will let her marry?"
Ji Yunshu raised his eyes to look at him: "Your Majesty really has this plan?"
Zhao Shen looked at the wine glass in his hand. There was still half a glass of wine left in the glass. As his fingers moved, the wine rippled slightly. He smiled and said, "Don't you know?"
Ji Yunshu felt that although he was smiling, he was not in a good mood. He frowned and said, "That was in the past. Now we don't need to send someone to marry, right?"
Zhao Shen's gaze seemed to melt into the lightly rippling wine: "You are right. If possible, the emperor does not want to disappoint the Prince's Mansion."
Being loyal to the Emperor is one thing, but making sacrifices is another.
The Prince of Lin'an has only one daughter, Xiao Yue, whom he has pampered since she was a child. If he really issues an imperial decree for a marriage, he will not disobey it, but he cannot help but have some grudges in his heart.
Ji Yunshu heard that he didn't seem to be showing any emotion, so she couldn't help but ask, "Don't you have a good relationship with Xiao Yu? He definitely doesn't want his sister to be sent away in marriage, so why does it seem like you don't care about this at all?"
Zhao Shen said calmly, "In the final analysis, this matter depends on the emperor's opinion. It doesn't matter whether I care or not."
Ji Yunshu found his words a bit strange: "What's wrong with you?"
She was obviously fine before she went out.
Suddenly remembering the moment when Xiao Kun was standing outside, I couldn't help but wonder in my heart, could it be that he knew about it?
