Chapter 463 Everyone’s reaction to the arranged marriage!
"I know everything. I'm not afraid of you getting anxious, so I came here quickly."
The eldest princess patted Mu's hand and comforted her first. Anyone would be nervous if their daughter was suddenly given a marriage.
"Sister-in-law, did you know this a long time ago?"
The eldest princess had a very close relationship with the emperor and the empress. Mu thought that the empress or the emperor had mentioned it to her.
The eldest princess shook her head and said, "I don't know about this. The emperor and the queen have never mentioned it to me before."
The eldest princess also felt it was a bit sudden. The imperial edict granting marriage arrived at the mansion suddenly, which was very much like the emperor's style.
"Don't worry, sister-in-law. The Emperor wouldn't force a marriage without the Crown Prince's approval. I think the Crown Prince is willing."
The eldest princess understood his nephew well. If he disagreed, the emperor would not dare to force the marriage on him. If he angered the empress, the emperor's good days would be over.
"But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will inherit the throne in the future."
Mu had a good relationship with the eldest princess and expressed her concerns directly.
"So what? Our Gu family's daughter is available to anyone for marriage."
The Gu family has a prominent family background, and Gu Jingyao is more than qualified to be the Crown Princess.
"Sister-in-law, that's not what I meant. I'm just worried that Yao'er is not suitable for life in the palace."
The princess understood what Mu said. The palace was indeed not a good place, but the palace now was not bad either.
"Sister-in-law, I understand your concerns. Let's ask Jingyao for her opinion later. If she doesn't want to, I will go to the palace and ask Yaoer to reject this marriage."
This may be a big deal for others, but for her, there is still room for easing.
"Hey, I'll listen to my sister-in-law!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Mu finally felt relieved. It was great that the eldest princess was willing to come forward.
"Mom, don't worry. Let's discuss it together when uncle, dad, and husband return home. If Jingyao doesn't want to, then forget it. A forced marriage won't be happy either."
"Yes, Master, don't worry. Maybe Sister Jingyao is willing. I remember that when we were in Qinjia Village, Sister Jingyao loved playing with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Really? I don't remember anything at all!"
After hearing what Ning Ning said, Mrs. Mu tried hard to recall the events of Qinjia Village, and did not remember that her daughter enjoyed playing with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"My master didn't like to go out at that time, so of course I don't have any impression of him. But I thought they were a good match at that time."
Ning Ning's words made everyone laugh and also eased the atmosphere in the room.
"Second sister-in-law, now that you mention it, I also remember that back then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince loved to tease Jingyao the most."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a headache for the Grand Tutor in the capital at that time, but he was indeed very patient with Gu Jingyao.
Even after returning to the capital, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was always patient with Gu Jingyao every time he saw her. Every time he sent something to the mansion, there was always a portion for Gu Jingyao.
"Look, second sister-in-law, maybe they are in love with each other!" The eldest princess smiled happily.
Mrs. Mu was a little uncertain after hearing what they said. If her daughter really liked the Crown Prince, why would she object?
When I married Gu, my father was against it, but I did it without hesitation.
She didn't want her daughter to go through what she had experienced.
"Second sister-in-law, what you're worried about is nothing. As long as Jingyao is willing, no one can bully her."
If Gu Jingyao really married the prince, she would never be bullied.
"Sister-in-law, I also like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I was worried that he would be unable to control himself in the future, after all, he is in a high position."
Mu has always had a good impression of the prince, and she is worried that her daughter will not be able to cope with the harem.
"Second sister-in-law, this is not a problem for us to consider. If Jingyao's uncle, father, and brothers can't even protect her, then they are useless."
The eldest princess never engages in internal conflicts. Jingyao is the daughter of the Gu family, and the men of the Gu family must protect her. This is the purpose of the family.
Mu was shocked by the eldest princess's remarks. The eldest princess was worthy of being the eldest princess.
"Aunt is right. If Jingyao wants to marry, she will marry the man she likes. She won't trade marriage for anything."
Qin Zhizhi fully agreed with the eldest princess' words. Gu Jingyao grew up under her care, and as the eldest sister-in-law, she would never allow Jingyao to sacrifice herself.
If a girl wants to get married, she should marry the man she likes, and the man must also value her, respect her and like her.
"Zhizhi is right, Sister Jingyao deserves the best."
Ning Ning has been with Qin Zhizhi for a long time, and her thoughts have changed a long time ago.
Mrs. Mu felt warm in her heart as she listened to what they said. She didn't have high demands, as long as her daughter was happy.
"The eldest princess, the second lady, the princess is here!"
As they were talking, a servant came in to report.
"Mom, I guess you are here with Second Aunt!"
Gu Yunfei's cheerful voice came from outside. As soon as she entered the yard, she saw the maids and servants serving her mother.
"Fei'er is here, come in quickly, where's Yu'er?"
Mrs. Mu was very happy to see her niece, and knew that she must have come for her daughter Jingyao's marriage.
"Second Aunt, Yu'er is in the mansion with Grandma. I heard that Sister Jingyao has been granted a marriage. Is Uncle crazy? Why did he suddenly grant Sister Jingyao a marriage?"
Gu Yunfei came here after hearing the news of the arranged marriage. How could Mu dare to respond, because the person her niece was talking about was the emperor.
"You, if you talk about your uncle like that, be careful or he'll get into trouble with you later."
The eldest princess said helplessly when she heard her daughter talk about her brother like this.
"I'm not afraid of him. Who told him to randomly arrange a marriage for Sister Jingyao? Second Aunt, don't worry. If Sister Jingyao doesn't want to, no one can force her."
"We just persuaded your Second Aunt to calm down, and you come back to cause trouble."
"Mom, you can't wrongly accuse me. This time it was my uncle who was inconsiderate. He didn't know to let us ask Sister Jingyao about her feelings first."
Gu Yunfei was unhappy when she heard her mother say that she was unhappy.
"How do you know that your sister Jingyao doesn't want to?" The eldest princess asked with a smile.
"Mom, do you mean that Sister Jingyao likes her cousin?" This time it was Gu Yunfei's turn to be surprised.
"I never said that. If you want to know, go ask your sister Jingyao. We are just guessing, and it doesn't represent Jingyao's opinion."
The eldest princess spoke very seriously, and Gu Yunfei didn't know what to say for a moment.
"My cousin has become much more mature and stable in the past few years. His appearance stands out among the young men in the capital. Coupled with his extremely noble status, he is indeed quite popular."
Gu Yunfei began to analyze her cousin's future husband as her cousin.
"Now that I think about it, my cousin is always nicer to Sister Jingyao. I used to think it was because of me, but now I think about it, could it be that he's already had his eye on Sister Jingyao?"
The more Gu Yunfei thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible. Otherwise, why would his cousin treat Jing Yao differently just because she was his cousin? It turned out that he himself had a crush on his cousin.
