[You believe it? Stop talking nonsense. Putting everything else aside, didn't Jiang Baichuan and Princess Zi Yan's relationship end in complete turmoil? It first caused a huge uproar, then ended in a bittersweet relationship, and they nearly ended up in a bloody scene in front of the Empress Dowager.]
Xu and Jiang Dinglian looked at each other and fell into a brief silence.
Jiang Dinglian coughed slightly, his tone calm, "The previous marriage between Baichuan and Princess Ziyan was merely a whim of the Queen Mother, a random arrangement. Mother and Madam are naturally not to be blamed. As for the marriage between Jinzhao and Yihuan, it was a match you personally selected. Scholar Sang's daughter is both refined and gentle, while General Bai's daughter is lively and charming. I believe they will be a perfect match."
[Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it a bad fate.]
In a previous life, Jiang Jinzhao's marriage was stolen by Liao Lingxi. Your beloved daughter-in-law disappeared on the wedding day, secretly running away with Liao Lingxi to spend the rest of her life together.
Jiang Dinglian, Xu and Jiang Shu were all extremely surprised!
Jiang Jinzhao and Sang Wenyin had been engaged for a long time, and they should have planned their wedding earlier, but had to postpone it because Sang Wenyin was in mourning. But Sang Wenyin and her friends had seen her before, and she was a typical lady from a noble family, a recluse who rarely left the house, never leaving the main gate or the back door, and certainly not as uninhibited as Princess Ziyan.
Who would have thought that such a rule-abiding woman would elope with someone?
Moreover, the target was the bad-behaved Liao Lingxi, the son born to a concubine?
Whether in appearance, talent or family background, he is far inferior to Jiang Jinzhao.
Both Xu and Jiang Shu were confused.
As for Jiang Yihuan, alas, Bai Yunxi was indeed a gentle and virtuous lady, but unfortunately, he was a dandy playboy. His entanglement with the Gu woman from Southern Xinjiang ultimately led to the loss of his martial arts skills and even Bai Yunxi's death.
Jiang Dinglian couldn't help but frown.
His third son has always been his highly anticipated heir. He has been obsessed with military strategy since childhood and is like an ice-covered cold storage. He never interacts with women. Only his colleague's daughter Bai Yunxi has played and laughed with him since childhood, and they can be considered childhood sweethearts.
How could Yihuan possibly let Yunxi down!
[Sigh, life is unpredictable. Jiang Yihuan killed Bai Yunxi, and later General Bai broke up with this unfaithful man.]
At this time, no one mentioned any good marriage anymore.
Yue Qingyang even felt that the atmosphere around him had become unusually quiet, as if even the air had frozen.
Jiang Songyi noticed everyone's attention was on her, and she realized she had to say something to avoid being dragged into the marriage dispute. "Mother, don't bother arranging a marriage for me. I have no desire to marry."
Yue Qingyang's eyes flickered slightly, and a sense of joy surged in his heart.
Then, Jiang Songyi's words rang out again: "I plan to become a monk and concentrate on practicing."
Yue Qingyang was stunned on the spot.
Jiang Dinglian had been drinking a little and nearly choked on his drink when he heard this. He quickly retorted, "Nonsense, you're talking about becoming a monk! Absolutely not! If you don't want to get married, then don't marry. It's not like the Yongding Marquisate can't support you, so why go to this extent?"
Mrs. Xu did not take Jiang Songyi's words seriously. After all, this girl always said shocking things, and she was no longer surprised.
She gently poked Jiang Songyi's nose and said softly, "Do you want to stay with your mother forever? Silly child, even princesses and princesses of the royal family have to get married eventually." She herself had experienced such a stage and knew that the rules of the world were not something they could easily change.
[However, princesses and county ladies can still keep male lovers, even if they are married.] Jiang Songyi only pondered this idea silently in her heart and did not say it out loud.
She then thought: "Aren't the Third Princess and Princess Zi Yan also becoming nuns?"
Jiang Dinglian scoffed at this. He said disdainfully, "That's just a facade. How could the Emperor and the Empress Dowager be willing to give it up?"
Jiang Shu suggested with a smile, "Perhaps Songyi has just returned to the palace and hasn't interacted much with the young men in the capital. Why not take her to Princess Linchuan's Spring Peony Banquet in a few days? Let her see more of the young talents in Jindu City. Maybe she can find someone she likes."
Jiang Dinglian glanced at Yue Qingyang warily. The young man's appearance and temperament were outstanding even among the young talents in Jindu City. He couldn't help but worry that Jiang Songyi would be deceived by his appearance.
"Indeed, Songyi should see more. What prince wouldn't be worthy of our Yongding Marquis' daughter? But I must state in advance that those who are thin, frail, and pale are not suitable. Even a flashy, embroidered pillow like Hao Ren is definitely not suitable. It would be best to find someone who is skilled in martial arts and can better protect and care for Songyi."
Yue Qingyang couldn't help but frown slightly, a trace of unhappiness flashed through his heart. Jiang Dinglian's presence made him feel a little uncomfortable.
However, Jiang Dinglian is not as weak as he looks. What he shows is just an illusion. In fact, his martial arts are extraordinary and unfathomable.
Jiang Dinglian smiled coldly and said firmly, "The most crucial point is that she must be a native of Jindu. I will never tolerate my daughter marrying far away."
After hearing this, Xu and Jiang Shu did not raise any objection and they both agreed with this request.
Yue Qingyang's brow furrowed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure. It didn't matter; he had his own way of controlling Jindu.
"Song Yi, if you have someone you like, just tell your father. As long as he is born and raised in Jindu, I can bring him to you."
The reason why Jiang Dinglian repeatedly emphasized the people of Jindu was because he was afraid that Jiang Songyi would be deceived by Yue Qingyang's sweet words.
