Chapter 613 What if My Dad Doesn’t Agree?
Mainly about the second princess’ marriage.
She herself had her eyes on Han Yue, but the emperor had a bunch of other candidates.
However, since he had promised the Queen to let the Second Princess make her own choice, he would not interfere.
Unless Han Yue is not worthy of the princess.
In other words, if he had any questions, the emperor would not agree.
However, now that there is a result, the emperor and his entourage can return to Beijing.
To be honest, the emperor has been quite busy recently, and the transfer of officials has not yet been completely completed.
After returning to the capital, I naturally had to investigate this Han Yue.
However, General Han's family is really a simple one and it is very easy for them to go bad.
General Han is fifty years old and has a wife, who is Han Yue’s biological mother and passed away two years ago.
Now he has no wife, only several concubines.
General Han’s eldest son and daughter are both born to his legitimate wife, as is his youngest son, Han Yue.
Han Yue is the youngest and the most favored one in the Han family.
Although General Han had concubines and illegitimate sons, he did not favor his concubines over his wife. It was not because he favored his wife because she was his legitimate son, but because Han Yue was the best since he was young and had outstanding literary talent.
Yes, he was able to show his outstanding literary talent and was very much loved in the Han family, a family that had been home to rough people for generations.
Not only General Han doted on him, but all his brothers and sisters also doted on him.
So now when they heard that the princess might marry, the whole family felt unhappy.
It’s not about anything else, I’m just afraid that the princess has a bad temper and will make him suffer.
"Can we avoid this?" His elder brother was very worried.
"No, I like it." Han Yue smiled and said, "The Second Princess is very cute. I like her."
"You like it already?" The eldest sister was also worried: "The royal family has many rules. No matter how good you are, once you enter the royal family, you are still inferior to others... Alas... You have been proud since you were a child..."
"It doesn't matter. I will do well in the imperial examinations and make a name for myself." Han Yue smiled and said, "Whether I marry a princess or not, I still have to work for the royal family and bow my head. It makes no difference."
General Han, on the other hand, was relatively calm: "Just look at it and see if you like it. Hey, when your mother passed away, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to live well."
Han Yue lowered his head and then raised it again: "I'm doing well."
Of course, it was not an impulsive act. I had never thought about it before, but later, when I saw the princess like that, I liked it very much.
His own mother was a delicate beauty, and his sister was also gentle in nature.
In fact, he likes girls who are lively like that.
Qi Yi.
His name is Qi Yu, and even his name sounds nice.
"Since you have decided, let's do it this way. Let's wait for the imperial edict. There is nothing to criticize about our family. As long as the emperor doesn't mind that our family has no title, it will be fine." General Han patted his youngest son's shoulder.
Naturally, she wanted him to marry a woman of equal status and live a good life with her.
But since he also thinks the princess is good, then so be it.
Anyway, this child is not incompetent, and it is only a matter of time before he succeeds.
"Thank you, father." Han Yue smiled.
The Han family was indeed innocent, and soon the emperor issued an imperial edict.
General Han's youngest son Han Yue was of the same age as Princess Zhaohua. They were talented and beautiful, a match made in heaven, and were specially granted marriage.
As for the wedding, there is no rush as the princess's mansion has not yet been completed.
The Han family came to the palace to express their gratitude, and the second princess met Han Yue again in Taiji Palace.
He was waved away by the emperor.
Let's go for a walk in the Imperial Garden under the pretext of beauty.
In the imperial garden, Han Yue looked at the second princess with a beautiful smile and felt very happy.
I picked a flower and handed it over: "For you."
The second princess blushed and covered her face: "Ah! You!"
Han Yue was a little surprised. Why was the second princess, who was known for her straightforwardness, shy?
"Don't you like it?"
"I like it!" The second princess snatched it away: "You are such a good person!"
Han Yue was at a loss.
"Ah, sending flowers and such! You are so good at it!" The second princess stamped her feet with a blush.
Han Yue really didn’t understand what the second princess meant, but that didn’t stop him from being happy.
Then, his handsome eyes were full of smiles and joy.
The second princess slowly calmed down and tilted her head to look at him: "You should do the same in the future. I hate treating each other with respect the most. If we live like guests, what's the fun in that?"
Han Yue unexpectedly agreed: "Princess, what you said is true. My father and mother have never been respectful to each other."
"Ah? What do they look like?" the second princess asked curiously.
"My mother was weak and cried a lot." Han Yue pursed his lips and smiled: "In her last few years, she was in poor health and often felt uncomfortable. She would cry."
He paused, as if wanting to see the second princess's reaction.
"And then?" The second princess only reacted eagerly.
"Then, my father came back from court and came to see her. She cried with her back to him." Han Yue smiled, with nostalgia in his eyes: "My father was a rough man, but he was always very gentle to my mother. He was very careful and didn't dare to mention her illness, fearing that she would feel worse. He would do some ridiculous things to comfort her."
"Pick a flower, pick a leaf. He doesn't know any poetry. After picking a flower, he can only say "You are prettier than the flower". After picking a leaf, he can only say "Look, this leaf looks like a crescent moon, right?"
"Mother just liked him like this. So she stopped crying. Knowing that she was about to die, she wanted to be buried with a box."
"Are the things inside...all the things your father gave you?" The second princess' eyes turned red.
"Yes, dried flowers, withered leaves. And the ugly hairpin made by my father." Han Yue still smiled, but the nostalgia in his eyes made people feel distressed.
"Although my father had several concubines in our house, he sent away the dishonest ones early on. Now these concubines are all good-tempered. So there are several brothers born to concubines in our house, and we have a good relationship. Because I am the youngest, my older brothers and sisters love me. But my mother held me before she died, thinking about what to do with me and what to do with my father."
"She knew that even if she still had an aunt, her father's heart would not be the same."
The second princess cried.
Han Yue smiled and said, "I'm not telling you this to get your sympathy. In fact, we've always lived well, but mother passed away early. Mother was weak, but she taught me how to take care of my family. Father was a rough man, but he also taught me how to treat my wife. In the future, I will also live well with the princess, not in a respectful way, but in a sincere way."
"Wow, really? An ignorant girl like me is easily deceived. If I weren't a princess, I might have eloped with you." The second princess cried.
Han Yue's heart skipped a beat and he wanted to laugh...
He held back and said, "Princess, what are you talking about? The princess is a girl from an ordinary family, and I will marry her properly. How could she elope?"
"What if my father doesn't agree?"
Awooo. It's been 4,000 words these days, ha, I'm saving it up to write a big one, don't worry, my big one is definitely much more than the one you deducted.
