He frowned and asked, "Why are there only four carriages? Who's not here?"
Murong Qingyun's face turned slightly cold as he replied, "Xiao'er."
"Why isn't she here?"
"Maybe she got the heat. She's been sleeping since lunch and the maids couldn't wake her up, so we came out."
Seeing the understanding in Murong Qingyu's eyes, Murong Qingyun pleaded, "Dad, let her rest in the mansion."
Murong Qingyu pulled Murong Qingyun's horse over, and the father and son went to a separate side. Then he said, "Qingyun, why are you so confused? Have you forgotten why we spent so much energy training them?"
Murong Qingyun's face turned cold, and he said, "I haven't forgotten. But we have trained so many women, do we really have to sacrifice Xiao'er?"
"Who said we should sacrifice her? If Qian Yeming chooses your other sisters, Xiao'er will still be yours."
Murong Qingyu's words made Murong Qingyun sneer, "Dad, there should be a limit to how much you can coax me! Qian Yeming is no fool. He'd leave such a beautiful smile behind and go find other women. Do you think that's possible?"
Murong Qingyu also became angry and scolded, "Qingyun! Xiao'er is superior to the others in both appearance and ability. Do you know how important Xiao'er is to us?"
"I only know that I really love Xiao'er and I will marry her in the future."
"you……"
"Dad, I'll agree to whatever you ask me to do, but I only have one request. I love Xiao'er and want her to be my woman. You're giving the woman I love to someone else. You've experienced this feeling before. Do you want me to make the same mistake?"
Murong Qingyu was slightly silent because of this sentence. How could he not know the heart-wrenching feeling of handing over the woman he loved to someone else?
But time is the best medicine to heal all wounds. If the unbearable pain he endured could be exchanged for the throne in the future, he would be willing to do so. He was even glad that he had given up that woman.
Sighing, Murong Qingyu said earnestly, "How can a father not understand this feeling? But Qingyun, women and wealth are nothing but fleeting clouds. If you become the emperor, you can have any woman you want. Why worry about Murong Xiao?"
"But I only love her."
"Stupid!" Murong Qingyu scolded, "Think about it, Qian Yeming is so poisoned that he can barely protect himself. How much energy can he have to deal with those princes who are eyeing him covetously? If we rely on him, how long will it take for our great cause to succeed?
But if Xiao'er is favored by Qian Yeming, with her intelligence, why worry about not being able to use Qian Yeming's hand to overthrow those princes? By then, we will control the country. As long as you really love Xiao'er, your father has promised her that she will marry you.
"She had already lost her virginity to Qian Yeming at that time. How could she marry me again?"
"As long as you love her, I can make Qian Yeming impotent and guarantee that you will be a clean person again! But if you don't agree, there's no guarantee that Xiao'er won't be valued by Qian Yeming or other people.
If Qian Yeying steps forward to arrange a marriage and assigns Xiao'er to someone who is of no benefit to us, you won't even be able to cry."
Seeing Murong Qingyun's silence, Murong Qingyu immediately seized the opportunity and instructed Jing, "Let Yang Yi check on Xiao'er and make sure she leaves in a quarter of an hour."
