But she's only an 11-year-old girl. Of course, even if she were older, she wouldn't have those kinds of feelings.
The Fifth Prince. He seems to be very kind to his younger sister, but he doesn't treat the others any differently. Even the princesses have a hard time getting to know him, let alone him, who is just a playmate.
Moreover, she had met Consort Yi several times through Jingrou.
Don't be fooled by Consort Yi's seemingly kind and gentle demeanor. If anyone dares to scheme against her son, she will turn on them without hesitation. Moreover, she has a fiery and shrewish personality and is completely unconcerned about appearances, regardless of where you come from.
So if you can get along with her peacefully, why provoke someone like that? Are you afraid of having too much of a comfortable life?
What was Grandmother thinking? Why did she have to provoke her?
"Then don't give in to her wishes. This time, you absolutely mustn't go to the other courtyard!" Jingrou puffed out her cheeks.
She was somewhat indignant at her good friend's grandmother's behavior. It was understandable to hope that one's daughter would marry into a higher social class; many families in the capital did the same. However, she had never encountered anything so outrageous as to insist on marrying her granddaughter to a prince.
Such purposeful interactions make everyone uncomfortable, and no matter who they are, whether it's a prince or anyone else, they are not fools.
It's just that Wen Ying didn't listen to her; otherwise, Wen Ying wouldn't be so popular. Everyone in the palace is as shrewd as a fox, whether it's the princes or princesses. If you're looking for a simple way to play mind games, no one can outsmart them.
In a short while, many thoughts raced through her mind. She thought about the eldest prince's feelings for Wenying, and she also thought about how Wenying had no desire to curry favor with those so-called princes, and simply wanted to live a quiet life.
Jingrou hesitated even more about whether to tell her that the eldest prince liked her.
If Wenying knew that the First Prince liked her, and Wenying also had some feelings for the First Prince, or rather, that these feelings could be cultivated, then she would have satisfied her grandmother's difficult demands, and her marriage might have been easily resolved...
If their relationship progresses smoothly afterward, Wenying's grandmother might not be able to continue to make things difficult for Wenying.
But is it enough to simply satisfy his grandmother's unreasonable demands?
She would be living her life alone from now on, unlike her grandmother. Was the eldest prince really a good choice?
Nobody can say for sure about this. Maybe only those who live through this life will have the right to speak on it.
But they are still so young now; this may be many years from now.
Putting aside his personality, just looking at his identity, you can tell what he will face in the future; the burden on his shoulders is incredibly heavy!
distressed!
So in the end, the two of them were both troubled.
"Do you have someone you like?" Jingrou asked quietly, and the two best friends huddled together to whisper to each other.
If Wenying has someone she likes, then she shouldn't consider the eldest prince for now. If their statuses are suitable and they can get along, she could try to find a breakthrough through her grandmother. Although her grandmother is domineering, with her mother and father around, it's not impossible to outwardly comply but inwardly defy her.
Wen Ying nodded firmly. She was so young; she didn't have time to think about such things!
Moreover, there really isn't anyone like that around her. The main issue is that she's too old to even think about liking someone!
Moreover, because of her grandmother's situation, she rarely had contact with men. If she did, and her grandmother found out, especially if the man was from a high-ranking family, her grandmother might try to marry her off.
If you come from a humble background, you'd be extremely careful to keep yourself away from that man!
Because of her grandmother's behavior, she was also disgusted, afraid of causing trouble for others, and worried that getting a little closer to them would lead to suspicion.
Judging from Grandmother's attitude alone, how could anyone be willing to interact with her!
Jingrou seemed to be deep in thought.
If Wenying doesn't have anyone she likes, she could try getting to know the First Prince. After all, it's a nice thing to be liked. It just depends on what he wants to do. Anyway, with Yinreng and her by her side, there won't be any problems.
Jingrou was engrossed in her own thoughts and didn't notice that Wenying beside her was also deep in thought.
Why is Jingrou acting so strange today? It's like she has something on her mind, something she wants to tell her but hasn't...
Wenying is quite perceptive, mainly because Jingrou usually says what she thinks and rarely hides things like this.
However, at this moment, Wen Ying also thought of something else. She lowered her voice and, while holding Jing Rou's hand, whispered, "Then what's going on between you and the Crown Prince? You two are so close, will it be..." Wen Ying tentatively asked.
In fact, she wasn't the only one with this doubt. The Crown Prince was already twelve years old and it wasn't time for him to marry his principal wife yet, but some families who had such ideas had already started to take action.
After all, it takes several years or even decades to raise a girl, and only by raising a girl who is about the same age as the crown prince and has a good reputation can the emperor see her and consider her as a candidate!
Everyone can see how much the current emperor values the crown prince. Of course, the best girl should be chosen to match the crown prince of Emperor Kangxi!
Many powerful families also believed that the emperor would definitely choose a crown princess for himself according to the strictest standards!
Perhaps the standards for this Crown Princess are exceptionally strict; then she'll need to be carefully trained…
Many people have even begun to speculate that the Emperor may have already started looking for a list of candidates to be the Crown Princess!
If we wait until the Crown Prince is fifteen or sixteen years old to consider marrying a consort, how could it possibly be in time? How can we possibly win the race with such a short preparation period?
If you want to compete for the position of Crown Princess, you should definitely start acting early!
Jingrou was shocked. How could others see things this way when she and Yinreng were just very good friends?
Seeing the astonishment on Jingrou's face, Wenying understood, and she shook her head with a sigh.
It's hard to believe that two people who seem so close to each other haven't considered this!
No, perhaps Jingrou hasn't considered this matter yet, but what about the Crown Prince? The Crown Prince is much older, and he treats Jingrou so well, hasn't he considered this aspect?
Wen Ying seemed to be deep in thought; he was, of course, very concerned about his good friend's marriage.
