Chapter 113 Happiness: Choose One from Three
Wei Changtian and Liang Zhen left the palace around dinner time.
After that, Ning Qingyu at least stopped talking about "writing poetry", and they chatted for a while about the customs and culture of Shuzhou.
Ning Yuke didn't leave either. She sat next to him and chatted with him from time to time.
Although he didn't say much, he always hit the point, and his speech and behavior were very generous and appropriate.
If we put aside the scar on her face, Princess Rouan should be the most presentable woman Wei Changtian has ever met.
Gentle, reserved, quiet and virtuous.
At least none of the women he has now have this temperament.
Although Lu Jingyao and Liang Qin, one literary and one martial, both came from good backgrounds, they actually still retained the behavior and thoughts of little women.
Yang Liushi is quite open-minded and should be the one who understands herself the best. It's a pity that she is both a fox demon and an oiran, and her background is not good.
Xu Qingwan's words. She might be good at fighting and killing monsters, but when it comes to dealing with people In short, Ning Yuke is the template of a good wife that men dream of in every aspect.
"Uncle Liang, what is the reputation of this Princess Rouan in Shuzhou?"
Sitting in the carriage on the way back, Wei Changtian casually asked Liang Zhen.
"Fame? Most people only know that there is such a princess, but have never seen her, so there is no such thing as fame."
Liang Zhen shook his head: "I had a good relationship with the prince before, but today is the first time I have seen her."
"I see."
Wei Changtian nodded and put Ning Yuke's matter behind him, and then asked: "Uncle Liang, why did you bring me to see Prince Shun today? It can't be that you want me to exchange poems with him."
"Hahaha, that's definitely not the case."
Liang Zhen laughed loudly and patted Wei Changtian on the shoulder: "Changtian, don't look at Prince Shun as a poetry fanatic, but no matter what, he is also a prince of the same bloodline as the emperor."
"It will only do you good to get to know him."
"I don't know what the benefit is. Please give me some advice, uncle."
Wei Changtian was a little confused.
Ning Qingyu has no power except for his wealth, and his words are useless. How can he help me? Liang Zhen did not answer directly, but smiled and asked back: "Changtian, this Shuzhou City is full of good and bad people. Who do you think has the most noble life?"
"Prince Shun, of course."
"Whose life is the second most valuable?"
βThe second most valuable.β
Wei Changtian thought for a while before slowly asking, "Princess Rouan?"
"That's right! It's Princess Rouan, or the three daughters of the prince."
Liang Zhen said: "Although the other two little girls don't have the title of princess, they are also the blood of the Ning family. Their lives are much more valuable than mine, a general, or Shao Ying'an, a governor."
"No, Uncle Liang."
Wei Changtian was puzzled: "But what does this have to do with me?"
"Of course it doesn't matter now, but it can be made to matter."
Liang Zhen said sternly: "Changtian, before you left, your father repeatedly asked me to keep you safe in Shuzhou."
"After all, although the emperor has not pursued the matter of you killing Liu Yuanshan, how could the people of the Liu family let it go so easily?"
"Right now, it's just because the storm has not yet passed, and they don't want to be caught."
"After a while, when this matter gradually calms down, I guess the Liu family will try every possible way to take action against you."
"And I can't always be by your side, so I have to find a life-saving card for you."
"Uncle Liang, what do you mean?"
Wei Changtian widened his eyes slightly: "Prince Shun, no, Prince Shun's daughter is my life-saving card?"
"That's right."
Liang Zhen nodded seriously: "No matter how powerless Prince Shun's family is, there is one thing that is beyond doubt."
"That means no one would dare to take their lives unless the emperor nods!"
"If you can marry any of the prince's three daughters, the Liu family will have to consider whether they can afford the consequences if they want to take action again."
"hiss"
After listening to Liang Zhen's thoughts, Wei Changtian fell into deep thought for a moment.
Don't mention it, it's really reliable!
As Liang Zhen said, although the Liu family is now peaceful, sooner or later they will take revenge on me, and they will definitely do their best to take revenge.
When that day really comes, Liang Zhen and Xuan Jingsi may not be able to guarantee his safety, but if he marries Ning Qingyu's daughter, he will be related to Ning Yongnian!
Although he is not a very valuable relative, he is enough to intimidate the Liu family.
"Uncle Liang."
Thinking of this, Wei Changtian looked at Liang Zhen with a strange look in his eyes: "This method is feasible, but if I want to marry the prince's daughter, I'm afraid I need Ning Yong... Ahem, I'm afraid I need the emperor's approval, right?"
"That's natural, but the emperor will probably agree."
Liang Zhen analyzed: "Although the Xuanjing Division is now missing two guards, it is still one of the most important forces in Daning. No matter how you look at it, intermarriage with the Wei family will not be bad for the royal family."
"Um."
Wei Changtian nodded, then hesitated and said, "Then Qin'er..."
"What happened to Qin'er?"
Liang Zhen was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what Wei Changtian meant, and couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, Changtian, you don't have to worry about Qin'er's status after marrying you."
"The position of the principal wife must belong to the prince's daughter, and Qin'er can be the co-wife!"
The principal wife is the main wife, and there is only one. The status of the secondary wife is slightly lower than that of the principal wife, but slightly higher than that of a concubine. Generally speaking, there can be two.
This is where the concept of three wives and four concubines came from.
Wei Changtian never expected that Liang Zhen would be so "aware", and he didn't know what to say for a moment.
But since she has disregarded her daughter's interests for his sake, he must also "live up to her trust"!
"Uncle Liang, OK! Then I'll give it a try!"
"Hahaha, my dear nephew, there is no need to be modest. Not only are you handsome, but you also have such a talent for poetry."
Liang Zhen slapped his thigh and said affirmatively: "I'm sure Prince Shun will not object to this marriage!"
"Yes, it is true."
Wei Changtian nodded shamelessly: "But today I only saw Princess Rouan, the other two..."
"Don't worry, my dear nephew. I will tell you now."
"good"
Shun Prince's Palace.
Just when Wei Changtian was discussing with Liang Zhen which daughter of Ning Qingyu to marry, Ning Yuke was sitting in her boudoir staring at the mirror in a daze.
She gently touched the scar on her cheek, and there seemed to be some loss in her eyes.
"elder sister!"
Suddenly, a clear call like an oriole sounded from outside the door, and then a pretty figure hurriedly ran in.
"I heard from the maid that Master Wei came here just now? Did your father call you over?"
"Huh! Why didn't Dad call me?"
"Sister, what kind of person is Mr. Wei? Tell me about it!"
β.β
The girl, who was about fifteen or sixteen years old, kept shouting, her smooth, fair face full of excitement.
Ning Yuke turned back to look at the girl, and after she finished asking, she smiled softly and said, "Young Master Wei is quite handsome, and he is indeed very talented."
"Really?!"
The girl's eyes sparkled with stars, and she suddenly asked Ning Yuke in a low voice: "Sister, if I secretly go to find him, will Dad be angry if he finds out?"
"You'd better talk to Dad about this."
Ning Yuke said gently: "Dad also admires Master Wei and will not stop you."
"Wow! That's great! I'll go and ask daddy for help right away!"
The girl was so excited when she heard this that she soon jumped away like the wind.
Ning Yuke looked at the girl's back, then looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and sighed softly.
