Tu Yufan also knew that the emperor was only informing him, not asking for his opinion.
He felt a little cold in his heart, and he didn't know what Xiang Chengting meant. If he ignored Xiaohua's wishes and wanted to force her to marry him, then he could only let Xiaohua remain a widow.
I hurried back home and found Xiaohua there. She was wearing a turquoise skirt and had her hair tied up in a bun with a white jade hairpin inserted in it. The rest of her hair was hanging down. She was sitting in the study, reading quietly. Jinlougui was sleeping soundly on a chair beside her with his head tilted back.
When Jin Xiaohua saw Tu Yufan coming back, her eyes lit up, and Tu Yufan shot Jin Lougui directly in the nose.
Jin Lougui was so frightened that his whole body trembled, he jumped up, opened his eyes, and looked at a loss.
"Xiaohua and I have something to talk about. Go back to your room and sleep."
Jin Lougui smiled awkwardly. His father's influence was still there, so he ran away cleanly.
"Father, you're back. I heard that Yuzhou is desolate and hardship. I wonder how you are doing." She smiled shyly and bowed playfully.
Over the years, her marriage has always been unsuccessful, and she has attracted bad peach blossoms like Qu Jinyun. Now that the prince has proposed to her, she feels a little guilty.
"Have you seen the prince?"
"My daughter is willing to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Don't blame him. He told His Majesty after I agreed. When I followed my sister-in-law to the flower festival, I accidentally hit him with a lantern. When he saw me, his face turned red and he almost bumped into someone else's stall. Later, he knew that my father was you."
It’s hard to believe that this old man can be so innocent.
"You know, if he becomes the emperor in the future, he might have many concubines. Besides, he is already over 30 years old, so old."
Tu Yufan couldn't help but slander the prince.
Jin Xiaohua laughed: "Father, I am already in my teens. Although I don't like him, I like myself more. I don't want to struggle anymore. There may be men in this world, but I can't meet them. But I have a father, an elder brother, a sister-in-law, and now a mother. The love you give me makes me fearless. Love or not is not a must for me. Instead of choosing an insignificant man, betting on his conscience and an uncertain future, it is better to choose a man who brings me glory from the beginning."
"My daughter just chose the most suitable man. The prince is kind and benevolent. If I can stay in my place and behave myself, I can also enjoy endless wealth and glory. Besides, my father is already a descendant of the prince. We will rise and fall together, so marrying him is not a bad thing."
Tu Yufan sighed. He didn't expect Xiaohua's mind to be so insightful.
In the days since the imperial edict was issued, Xiang Chengting hid in the palace and dared not come out.
Most of the princes laughed at the Crown Prince, who was so dignified that he married a woman who had no help at all. It seemed that the Crown Prince would soon fall out of favor.
Other colleagues congratulated Tu Yufan one after another. They had previously laughed at her for leaving her daughter as an old maid and no one had ever married her, but now she had suddenly become the Crown Princess. I wonder how many people were secretly gritting their teeth in anger.
It was the wedding of his daughter and the prince's marriage.
Tu Yufan was transferred to Yuecheng as a prefect, and the emperor allowed him to take up the post after sending Xiaohua to marry.
Tu Yufan prepared Xiaohua's dowry with mixed feelings.
Zhu Sang also took out part of his dowry to give to Xiaohua as makeup.
"You don't need to worry, Xiaohua is smarter than you think, and she has already planned this.
