Chapter 309: Infatuated
The eldest princess lowered her eyes, feeling a sharp pain in her heart.
Counting the time, she hasn't seen Situ Wei since she got married. Eight years have passed. I wonder if he is doing well now?
But... marry and have children?
But it is undeniable that he was an outstanding general. In just a few years, he became a mighty general.
She was genuinely happy for him.
Luo Ranran tilted her little head and blinked her watery eyes playfully at the princess, "Aunt, let me tell you~ The mighty general has a girl he likes~"
The eldest princess' face turned pale, and she had an indescribable feeling in her heart. She pretended to be calm and said, "Oh, really? Is that girl from the border?"
Luo Ranran shook her head, "No, that girl is from Tianqi Imperial City."
You can’t believe it, it’s you, my aunt!
The eldest princess's heart tightened, her hands curled up unnaturally, and she smiled faintly: "I guess it must be a lady from a noble family in the imperial city."
The little girl continued to shake her head, "No, Aunt, please keep guessing."
The eldest princess' eyes darkened, and she was about to stop laughing. "My dear, I won't guess. It's the mighty general's private matter that he likes a girl. We have nothing to do with him. We don't need to worry about his affairs."
Situ Wei is thirty years old now. Isn't it normal for him to have a girl he likes?
She blesses him and will give him a gift on his wedding day.
After all, considering his official position and salary back then, to be able to give her a dowry of 136 taels of silver would have probably emptied all his savings.
Luo Ranran pouted and corrected him, "No, that's not true. General Weiwu is my father's good brother. They have been in cahoots with each other for many years."
In cahoots with each other?
“Puff…”
Everyone in the room laughed out loud.
The queen rubbed the little face of the little girl, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "My dear, the word 'in cahoots with each other' cannot be used to describe your father and the mighty general."
Luo Ranran clenched her fists, her face flushed as she tried her best to argue in a baby voice.
"They are in cahoots with each other. If it weren't for Daddy's help, Situ Wei, with his lowly position, wouldn't have been qualified to enter the palace, let alone meet my aunt so many times."
"Besides, outsiders are not allowed to enter the harem. Although Situ Wei is good at martial arts, he can't fly over eaves and walls and come and go freely in the palace."
"So, what's wrong with me saying that they are in cahoots with each other?"
As soon as the words fell, the room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked at the eldest princess with curious and gossipy eyes.
They finally understood what their younger sister (guaibao) was talking about, and the male and female protagonists were the eldest princess and Situ Wei.
Oh my god, what’s this big news?
==(●● |||)
Lian Jin said he knew, but he just wouldn't say it.
The eldest princess felt as if a thorn was on her back, and her fair cheeks instantly turned red with shame.
She was saying, how could Situ Wei appear in the harem by such a coincidence and not be discovered and driven away? It turned out that there was the help of the Imperial Master behind the scenes.
Since he had such a close relationship with the Imperial Master, why didn't he let the Imperial Master ask for me in marriage in front of the Emperor?
The eldest princess lowered her eyes and clenched her hands tightly.
She took it for granted.
Let’s not talk about the relationship between the National Master and Situ Wei, and just talk about Situ Wei’s personal situation.
He had no family background, no connections, no money, and even in the imperial city, he didn't have a place to live.
In his situation, wanting to marry the princess was nothing but a pipe dream, and even others would only laugh at his wishful thinking.
And she was just an unpopular princess without any say, and she couldn't make her own decisions.
All I can say is that the situation was serious at the time and they couldn't afford to act recklessly.
The eldest princess' eyes darkened, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and her heart ached.
Forget it, the past is gone, and there is no point talking about it now. After all, Situ Wei already has a girl he likes.
I believe that once he gets Dayang, he will marry the girl he likes and have children, and the things between him and her will always be buried deep in his heart.
"My dear, it's been many years since what happened between Situ Wei and I. There's no need to talk about it. As your aunt, I just want to raise your cousins well."
Luo Ranran spread her hands, "Okay, I'll listen to my aunt, but I want to say in the end that the girl Situ Wei likes is none other than you, my aunt."
"Back then, he liked you. Now, he still likes you as always. For you, he even planned to never marry for the rest of his life."
[A lovesick person, truly a lovesick person!] 】
"Wow~~" The little ones exclaimed in unison. How could they admire the mighty general from the bottom of their hearts?
"What?" The eldest princess's face changed drastically. She stood up suddenly, her heartbeat accelerated, and then she looked at Luo Ranran without blinking, "My dear, are you telling the truth?"
Luo Ranran nodded solemnly, "Yes, really, I can swear, Aunt, if you still don't believe it, you can ask little brother."
Without waiting for the eldest princess to speak, Lian Jin said with a serious expression, "Eldest Princess, what my sister said is absolutely true. You don't have to doubt it."
"Oh, okay." The eldest princess looked dazed and nodded blankly. Her head was buzzing. At this moment, she didn't know how to describe her mood.
There is happiness, excitement, shock, uncontrollable throbbing and longing... and so on.
Luo Ranran blinked and waved her little hand, and a small wooden box carved with plum blossoms appeared in front of the princess.
"Hey, auntie, these are letters that Situ Wei wrote to you but never sent out. There's a whole box of them. Do you want to see what he wrote?"
[I spent a lot of effort to steal this secretly.] 】
No way, the actual situation was that Situ Wei just let it go.
After so many years, his love has only grown, but he also wants to know if the eldest princess is interested in him?
If he had no intention, he would not appear in front of her and disturb her normal life. If he had intention, he would try hard to pursue her.
"I..." The eldest princess looked conflicted.
She looked down at the three children and saw that they were all smiling. They didn't show any disgust or intention to stop her. Her heart instantly felt warm.
The queen smiled and tapped Luo Ranran's little head. She finally understood that her little darling was acting as a matchmaker.
The one-year-old baby is really smart.
The Queen pondered for a moment, then said softly to the eldest princess, "My dear sister, a person's life is only a few dozen years long. Meeting each other is fate. If you miss this life, you may not meet again in the next life."
"There is no need to lock yourself in a cage just for reputation and various rules, hurting others and yourself."
"People who truly care about you will only respect and bless all the decisions you make. We, the Luoshi royal family, only wish you well."
The eldest princess' eyes were red and she was deeply moved.
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Thank you for giving me a new life and helping me find the value of life.
