"Ran'er, things are not as simple as you think. Go back to Xian first. When Daddy is ready, I will send someone to tell you."
Yun Ran also knew that there was no need to talk about this matter any further, so he changed the subject.
"My dear, how much dowry are you going to prepare for me when I marry the Third Prince? I have to be clear, I am marrying a prince, the future emperor, and I will not accept a smaller dowry."
"Ran'er, when did I ever agree to let you marry into the Third Prince's mansion?"
"Dad, what are you talking about? Why can't your daughter understand?"
Prime Minister Yun thought of the letter sent to him by the Second Prince and said immediately, "Ran'er, your marriage will be arranged by me. Don't worry, Dad will make sure you marry a man of your dreams and live a life of wealth and glory."
"Dad, I like the Third Prince. I love the Third Prince. I won't marry anyone else except the Third Prince."
"Come here, the young lady is sick. Hurry and take her back to the courtyard. Let her rest and recuperate in the near future. Don't go out unless it's necessary."
"Yes, Lord."
"Dad, what are you doing? I said I wanted to marry the Third Prince, why did you have me locked up? The Third Prince is back, and I'll be looking for him tomorrow."
"Wait."
Prime Minister Yun spoke up to stop the servants from pulling Yun Ran away, and waved his hand to let them leave.
The servant obeyed the order, closed the door, and continued to stand guard outside the study.
"Ran'er, what did you just say? The Third Prince is back. Where did you get the news? Is it true or false?"
"Dad, don't worry about how I know this. The Third Prince said he'd take me out for dinner tomorrow. If you lock me up, I'll see how you'll explain it to him."
Prime Minister Yun has been immersed in the court for dozens of days. He has a thorough understanding of the four princes and has his own opinions on them.
In his opinion, the Third Prince would definitely look down on Yun Ran, let alone take Yun Ran out for dinner.
He didn't believe this, but he felt that the third prince had really returned to the capital as his daughter said.
The reason why he thought so was that if Yun Ran had said what he had said five times in the more than half a day since he recognized her, he would have thought it was impossible.
But in fact, he was slapped in the face. Everything that happened proved that what Yun Ran said was right, and made him determined to recognize Yun Ran.
You should know that after he learned that Yun Ran was his biological daughter, he had no intention of recognizing Yun Ran.
After all, he had raised Li Mengyue for more than a dozen years, so even if it was just a dog, he had developed feelings for her. Furthermore, Li Mengyue was not only exceptionally talented, but also stunningly beautiful. To say she was stunningly beautiful was no exaggeration. He also counted on Li Mengyue to further his career.
But what surprised him was that Yun Ran attacked Li Mengyue, and was still so cruel, completely ending the woman's life.
Li Mengyue had never been to Yun Ran, but instead of feeling sorry for him, he felt that he deserved it.
After living in the prime minister's residence for more than ten years, she didn't even learn a little bit of survival skills in the rear courtyard. That was because Yun Ran, a village girl, had schemed against her and she had lost the most precious thing a woman could have.
He believed that even if Li Mengyue had not been plotted against by Yun Ran, she would not be able to hold a man's heart after getting married, and might be killed at any time.
Regarding Li Mengyue's accident, he felt that it was better for the fittest to survive. Since Li Mengyue was not capable of surviving in the harem, she should not occupy the position.
Besides, Li Mengyue was not his daughter in the first place. He had already done his best by providing her with fine clothes and delicious food for more than ten years.
His biological daughter Yun Ran came back. Although she was raised in the countryside and had a rustic air and could not read a single word, these could be changed.
The most important thing is that he saw his own shadow in Yun Ran. Whether it was greed or ruthlessness, she was very similar to himself, which made him suddenly feel that it was better to have a biological daughter.
