Here, Luo Shi was determined to keep her heart on the edge. "My two daughters are my flesh and blood. I dare to ask the Emperor about the marriage..."
But before Luo could finish, Yan Zhuo lifted his robe and knelt down, "Your Majesty, except Yingying, I have no interest in anyone else!"
Luo Shi, “…”
Jiang Yilin, “…”
Everyone: “…”
Jiang Ying, “!” You’re sick!
You want me, but have you asked me if I want you? What a joke! If you are money, everyone will love you!
When Jiang Ying rolled her eyes, the emperor's gaze flickered between her and Jiang Yilin. Finally, he pursed his lips and gave an apologetic look, "Madam Jiang, look at this...it's not that I'm partial. It's mainly because the prince himself seems to prefer the true bloodline of your Jiang family."
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, it's first come, first served. Miss Ying and Prince Yan have long been engaged, and their children are already so grown. Now the Prince refuses to accept other women, which only means that those other beauties are not in his eyes and are not meant to be together! As the saying goes, those who are destined to meet will meet even if they are thousands of miles apart, and those who are not destined to meet will not even meet each other. At this point, Miss Yilin should just find another good husband to marry."
As she spoke, Concubine Chen looked at Jiang Ying several times.
It can be said that not only Jiang Ying had some plans in mind, but this person's plan was also quite obvious!
Her fetus...
So she definitely wasn't speaking up for Jiang Ying for no reason, but among all the people present, her few words undoubtedly had the greatest impact on the Emperor, who immediately made the decision, "Yes! Imperial Concubine's reminder is quite reasonable!"
Concubine Chen smiled and said, "Madam Jiang, you don't have to worry. With the status of your Duke's Mansion, even if she is an adopted daughter, she is a beautiful girl that hundreds of families would want!"
Luo's heart sank, and the courage she had finally mustered dissipated in an instant.
Jiang Yilin wanted to fight for herself, but in the current situation, what was the point of her saying it to the sky?
I hid in the shadows in depression for a while, hating everyone in my heart!
Her father, brother, and grandmother were all bad people! Especially Luo, who kept saying she loved her, but it was actually useless!
After finalizing the candidate for marriage, the emperor's mind was only focused on Concubine Chen and her fetus.
When they were about to leave with Concubine Chen, the latter stood still, glancing at Jiang Ying with a friendly look, "Miss Ying, I have something I want to ask of you. Is it possible?"
Jiang Ying had a premonition in his heart. He lowered his eyebrows and nodded submissively, "Your Majesty, please speak."
"I think you have exceptional medical skills, and being a woman makes it easier to treat. So for the remaining five months, Imperial Physician Hu will continue to check my pulse every two weeks. Inside, you will live and eat with me in the palace. When I give birth safely, I will definitely reward you handsomely!"
"Your servant... obeys your order." Jiang Ying agreed readily without thinking much.
When I glanced sideways, I saw Yan Zhuo's expression which was hard to describe.
Did she ever think about how dangerous it was to take care of Concubine Chen's fetus?
Besides, tomorrow was their wedding day. What did she want? To get married and then just run away, or not get married at all?
Jiang Ying said indifferently, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your Majesty, my situation is just as you have said. I have just been reunited with my family and do not want to marry so soon. Moreover, I have to go to the palace to help your Majesty with her pregnancy, which makes it even more difficult for me to fulfill my filial duties to my parents. Therefore, shall I call off my marriage with Prince Yan?"
"Jiang!" Yan Zhuo frowned and said in a low voice.
Jiang Ying didn't bother to pay attention to him and only pleaded with the emperor, "Your Majesty, I am saying this out of my sincere concern for His Royal Highness. I dare not ask His Royal Highness to wait for me."
She thought to herself, isn’t this cruel enough?
Yan Zhuo really shouldn't have wasted his time on her.
But it wasn't just Yan Zhuo who was saying this. The emperor shook his head and refused, "Cancel the engagement? No, no, I've already spoken, and you both already have children. How about this? I'll give you a year. For the first six months, you'll stay in the palace to ensure the safety of my twins, and for the second six months, you'll be with your parents. After a year, we'll choose an auspicious date for the wedding!"
