The Minister of War took the initiative to propose marrying the illegitimate daughter of the Marquis of Anping.
Although An Shangning was favored by the wife of the Marquis of Anping, he had no powerful backing and was still a concubine's son. How could the Minister of War care about him so much?
The eldest son of the Minister of War...
I seem to have an excellent reputation; I feel like I've seen her before, but I don't really remember her.
This is not something she can worry about. Marquis Anping is no ordinary man. He and Marquis Anping are deeply in love, and he has good judgment. He will definitely not ruin An Shangning's happiness.
She can check it again later when the opportunity arises.
"However, it's strange that I haven't seen your father or Lady Anping after all this time." Xie Lingqin changed the subject, not dwelling on the matter.
“Oh, I happened to see my father, the steward, and the accountant discussing something this morning, and they haven’t come out of the study yet,” An Shangning replied casually. Then, pointing over there, she said, “Those young ladies are coming over. Let’s go talk to them over there to avoid getting into trouble.”
An Shangning was born and raised in the Marquis of Anping's mansion. Although she was kind-hearted, she couldn't possibly be completely unaware of the power struggles and infighting within the inner quarters of a high-ranking family.
The bad luck she mentioned was naturally a matter of comparing who was better and who was worse.
"Let's go over there. It's quiet there, away from trouble." An Shangning led Xie Lingqin into a small hall.
Should we stay away from trouble?
Xie Lingqin looked ahead, her gaze flickering slightly.
The flower branch was parted, and there stood someone who was sure to stir up trouble.
