Chen Zishu could probably guess what kind of marriage Wei Hansu was insisting on.
The reason why he took the initiative to find her to explain the situation that day was that after being chased and blocked by the Seventh Lady of the Wei Family for several days, he was extremely annoyed and had to anticipate the worst outcome.
Even if it would make her angry and she would misunderstand him as being self-important, he still took precautions.
After all, he really didn't want the situation of "unable to marry the younger sister, so marrying the older sister" to happen to himself.
Now it seems that his guess was correct. The Seventh Lady of the Wei Family was indeed not as docile and harmless as she appeared to be.
...And she really didn't force her half-sister onto herself.
Chen Zishu sighed and properly suppressed the slight wave of emotion that was slowly rising in his heart.
No one knew what this famous official in the court was thinking. Under the cool moonlight, the two sisters were still confronting each other.
Wei Hansu supported himself with his hands and forced himself to stand up, then sat crookedly on the ground, and his eyes were finally able to look Wei Hanzhang in the eye.
Her fingers were connected to her heart. Because of the pain, her face turned pale, but she gritted her teeth and stopped begging for mercy. She just said sarcastically: "Put away your innocent look. Why did I become like this? Don't you know?"
Wei Hanzhang asked: "What should I know?"
Still with this innocent look that she hated so much, Wei Hansu was filled with hatred and couldn't help but blurt out, "You clearly knew that I liked Chen Shizi, and you clearly knew that the person he liked was you. He even came to your house to ask for your hand in marriage, but you never revealed anything. Every time you saw me showing my feelings to you like a clown without any defense, did you feel very proud in your heart?"
"Isn't it enough that you already have the Crown Prince? Why can't you let me marry the Prince Chen? Why can't you let the young master of the Gu family and the princess consummate their marriage? Do you have to take all the good things in the world?"
"Shut up!" Wei Hanzhang stood up suddenly, not caring about the changed expressions of the people in the courtyard, and widened his eyes in confusion: "Do you really think so?"
Wei Hansu smiled coldly: "Isn't it?"
"How can I tell you? Not many people know about the marriage proposal. My mother has warned me not to let others know. Besides, I don't have any personal feelings for him, so why should I be so proud of it?"
Wei Hanzhang took a deep breath, trying to suppress his surging anger, but he still laughed out of anger, "Is it me who doesn't allow you to marry Prince Chen? If you two like each other, can I break you up? He is right here, do you want to ask him if he is willing to marry you?"
Chen Zishu, who was named in public, remained silent, without even raising his eyes, and stood motionless to one side, saying softly: "Thank you for your kindness, but I have already made up my mind that I will not marry a daughter of the Wei family in this life."
After these words were spoken, the expressions of Li Yue and others who were shocked by Wei Hansu's words became even more complicated.
They really didn't know that this colleague actually had such an entanglement with the Crown Princess.
Judging from the situation, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should also be aware of this.
...Is this considered a royal secret? Xiao Junzhan stood there with his hands in his hands, looking at this side. Even though Wei Hansu said something shocking, he remained calm, looking very tolerant.
Only Ning Hai who was beside him could sense that his Highness was clearly extremely angry.
"Did you hear clearly? Chen Zishu has already said that he doesn't want a girl from the Wei family. You are willing to marry him on your own, but I can't force him to marry a girl from the Wei family. As for Gu Yunran..." Whether to consummate the marriage or not, in front of so many people, Wei Hanzhang really couldn't bring himself to say it. After a pause, he said, "I don't have that much ability. You don't have to blame everything on me."
"Ran Ran, why do you need to be so modest?" Wei Hansu naturally heard what Chen Zishu said. She sneered, "You are so capable that you don't need to do anything to make them fall in love with you. It's not that Prince Chen doesn't want to marry a daughter of the Wei family, but he doesn't want to marry a daughter of the Wei family other than you."
As she spoke, she looked in the direction of Chen Zishu and smiled maliciously: "Is that so, Master Chen?"
Wei Hanzhang felt that it was a waste of words for him to say these to her.
Some people live in their own world and stubbornly stick to their own cognition. It is impossible to reason with such people, so there is no need for her to bother explaining.
Wei Hanzhang stopped thinking about the conversation, but Wei Hansu refused to give up. Perhaps she was about to die, so her words became more wanton: "It's obvious that you are fickle and you are the one who changes your mind from day to day. How am I not as good as you? I am not as greedy as you, and I am not as good as you, who is fickle and self-righteous and can make men crazy with your beauty. Loyalty is wrong, and single-mindedness is wrong. If there is an afterlife, I will definitely not follow the rules anymore."
She gritted her teeth and said, "Sister, you are so kind, why don't you teach me how to be a fox, so that I can use this skill in my next life and experience the feeling of being held in the palm of a man's hand and cared for?"
"..." Wei Hanzhang's steps paused slightly, and he slowly turned around to look at the already crazy lady on the ground.
After a long, long time, he suddenly smiled. His smile was as bright as light, attracting everyone's attention.
Wei Hansu stared at her blankly. After a few moments of silence, Wei Hanzhang squatted down again, held her chin, and leaned his face very close to hers. He sighed and whispered, "Am I not good enough? Why does Seventh Sister always think about men?"
…………
With a snap.
It was the sound of Xiao Junzhan, who was no longer able to bear it, approaching at some point and kicking the person away.
Wei Hanzhang's palms suddenly felt empty, and then he was grabbed by the arm and pulled up, and his expressionless face appeared in front of him.
Those angry eyes looked straight at her, making her feel inexplicably guilty.
She blinked and asked carefully, "What's wrong?"
What happened? Xiao Junzhan laughed in anger, holding her waist with one hand and holding her tightly in his arms, completely losing his usual warmth and indifference, and gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think I'm dead?"
Who allowed her to be so playful towards others? And get so close to them!
Wei Hanzhang only felt a big warm hand pinching the back of his neck, and his little head lifted up uncontrollably. Xiao Junzhan's face was very close to him. In front of so many people, he actually covered his lips directly and rubbed them fiercely for a while before he barely calmed down a little.
He took a deep breath, still unable to control himself, and angrily said, “Why are you smiling at her!”
Wei Hanzhang raised the back of his hand to wipe his lips, wondering how he could feel the Crown Prince's pleasure in seeing his expression change drastically despite the resistance caused by the control of the insect.
She found that although she didn't like this man, she liked the mood swings he caused for her.
…something seems to be wrong with her.
Wei Hanzhang began to think back, did she have this hidden habit before? Even the poisonous insects couldn't affect her?
She didn't speak for a long time until her wrist was held while she was wiping her lips. She noticed the stern look on the man's face before she quietly defended herself, "I just think it's boring that she keeps talking about men all the time..."
It's a little late, but it doesn't matter, I'll continue coding
