"It is an honor for our Zhenguo Houfu that Xiang'er has won the favor of the Princess. However, this is a matter of great importance, and Xiang'er is my eldest brother's only child. I must go back and discuss this with the Second Master."
"Of course." The eldest princess was very satisfied with Mrs. Ling's attitude. She also understood that since Ling Xiang had not been able to have a fait accompli with the King of Qin, if she wanted to make this happen, she had to give the Ling family enough benefits, such as supporting Mr. Ling to become the Marquis of Zhenguo.
Ling Xiang knew exactly what Mrs. Ling was planning. It was nothing more than selling her out in exchange for wealth and glory.
If this matter continued to develop in this way, she would probably become the heroine Ling Xiang in the story of abuse, who was sold to the Qin Palace by her second uncle and second aunt and suffered great torture. She immediately bowed deeply to Princess Yongle:
"I'm grateful for the princess's kindness. Ling Xiang is overwhelmed but deeply moved. However, my parents have been missing for so many years, with no news at all. Ling Xiang has long vowed that even if it costs her everything in this life, she will find news of them. As long as I can't find news of my parents, Ling Xiang will never marry!"

In their opinion, Ling Xiang had no virtue or ability to marry the King of Qin, so they had to agree happily.

"He's a filial child, just like Yu'er. I didn't make a mistake in choosing him. But how can a daughter's marriage be delayed? No matter where the Marquis and his wife are, I don't think they want their only daughter to be unhappy because of them. Xiang'er, your filial piety is commendable, but this idea is not advisable."
Princess Yongle, half out of pity and half out of inducement, took Ling Xiang's hand and patted it. Her voice was very gentle, with a soothing power.
"Don't worry, I will fully support you in finding the Marquis and his wife. When you marry into the Prince of Qin's mansion, everyone in the mansion will do their utmost to find the Marquis and his wife. In this way, you can get married with peace of mind?"
