Ye Qianqian scratched her head.
"It's not that I don't like her."
"However, my third brother's destiny does not lie with her."
"Oh? How did you know? Did you ask Master Cangyun?"
"Okay!" Ye Qianqian nodded.
"Then why don't you tell your third brother? It would save him from wasting his time on other women. It's better to avoid those kinds of unwanted suitors."
Ye Qianqian shook her head.
"I don't want my third brother to know too much. Master Cangyun also said that many things in the human world are best left unsaid and should be left to nature."
Sezhuo said with a smile.
"Maybe your third brother doesn't like her! You're just worrying unnecessarily! If you care about your third brother, then you might as well hurry up and arrange a marriage for him in the future."
"So that your third brother won't always go to find other women, and then make you anxious here."
Ye Qianqian glanced at Sai Zhuo speechlessly.
How am I supposed to matchmake you, who's still a little kid, with my third brother?
Sai Zhuo asked.
"What's wrong? Can't we do it this way?"
Ye Qianqian shook her head.
"That person hasn't shown up yet!"
"Really? Then your third brother definitely won't like Zhou Yanyan today. Don't worry."
Ye Qianqian really didn't know how to explain it.
What if you really like it?
[We can't expect you to become my third brother's concubine, can we? With your personality, you only allow yourself to be the first wife; you won't tolerate any concubines!]
In the Shou Kang Palace.
Zhou Yanyan spoke to the Empress Dowager in a proper and respectful manner.
The Empress Dowager looked Zhou Yanyan up and down.
Naturally, I am very satisfied.
He muttered to himself.
"This girl, whether in terms of appearance or family background, is a perfect match for Chen'er!"
"But I don't understand why they aren't a destined match?"
The Empress Dowager deliberately asked Zhou Yanyan a question.
"Yan Yan, you will be of marriageable age in a few days."
"Now you can start thinking about marriage. Do you have a man you like right now?"
Zhou Yanyan blushed.
"Your Majesty, regarding matters of marriage, I believe it is best to let my parents make the decision."
The Empress Dowager nodded.
"That's good too."
"However, if you have a man you fancy, I would like to hear about him and I can also act as a matchmaker for you."
Zhou Yanyan was too embarrassed to say Ye Chen's name.
At that moment, Ye Chen walked in.
"Grandson greets His Majesty the Empress."
"Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhou Yanyan's eyes were also fixed on Ye Chen.
The more you look into his eyes, the more affectionate he becomes.
This naturally did not escape the Empress Dowager's notice.
If it weren't for Ye Qianqian's previous thoughts...
The Empress Dowager will also ask Ye Chen to consider Zhou Yanyan.
Ye Chen also glanced at Zhou Yanyan.
Just that one glance.
Ye Chen was not greatly disturbed.
This naturally did not escape the Empress Dowager's notice.
It seems so.
Ye Chen didn't take a liking to her.
The Empress Dowager asked Ye Chen.
"Chen'er, what are your plans for today?"
Ye Chen nodded.
"As usual, I practiced archery, horseback riding, reading, and martial arts."
The Empress Dowager nodded.
"You are very hardworking."
"Chen'er, this is Zhou Yanyan, the daughter of Prefect Zhou."
Ye Chen greeted him politely.
Zhou Yanyan returned the gift.
"Grandmother, since we have guests to see, I will not disturb you any longer!"
The Empress Dowager nodded.
"Okay, go ahead."
Zhou Yanyan's eyes clearly showed panic.
She thought that this time entering the palace/
It was the Empress Dowager who deliberately arranged for her to meet Ye Chen.
She also asked Ye Chen to accompany her for a walk and a look around.
Let's nurture the relationship between the two of us.
If they can see the potential in each other, things will proceed much more smoothly.
But it seems Ye Chen didn't take a liking to her.
However, this is not a big deal.
If the Empress Dowager is willing, they can certainly be given time to get to know each other.
but.
The Empress Dowager did not allow them to develop feelings for each other.
This inevitably made Zhou Yanyan feel depressed.
Could it be...?
The Empress Dowager summoned herself to the palace this time.
Is it really just to get her to talk?
The chat that followed.
Zhou Yanyan, however, didn't have that many thoughts on it.
The Empress Dowager could also see that Zhou Yanyan's heart was no longer with her.
Then he said to Zhou Yanyan.
"Yan Yan, you rarely come to the palace."
"Now that you're here, I'll have Ruoqiu accompany you on a walk around."
Zhou Yanyan nodded.
"Thank you, Empress Dowager."
When Ruoqiu accompanied Zhou Yanyan walking in the palace.
Zhou Yanyan had been inquiring about Ye Chen.
"Aunt Ruoqiu, does His Highness the Third Prince have a woman he favors?"
Ruoqiu shook her head.
"I'm not really sure either."
"His Highness the Third Prince has always focused his mind on his studies and rarely thinks about these things."
"Your Highness, this is a matter of marriage; I leave it entirely to the Empress Dowager to decide."
"If the Empress Dowager has a woman she likes, His Highness the Third Prince will also give her the opportunity to meet her."
Zhou Yanyan asked immediately.
"Does the Empress Dowager have a woman in mind?"
Ruoqiu didn't know how to answer this question.
original.
She could tell.
The Empress Dowager favored Zhou Yanyan.
But after meeting today.
The Empress Dowager's attitude towards her was no longer as warm as before.
