Chapter 154 Women's Freedom to Marry



Su Jingyao achieved her goal, a satisfied smile on her face, and walked briskly from the Qianqing Palace back to the Kunning Palace.

Along the way, her skirt fluttered in the wind like a dancing butterfly.

The bed in Kunning Palace was remade by the Ministry of Internal Affairs at Su Jingyao's request. It is even bigger than Jun Zechen's dragon bed and looks spacious and comfortable.

Because the twins are about one year old, they are lively and active.

Su Jingyao often lies on the bed with a smile on her face, watching the two little ones crawling happily on the bed.

Sometimes, the two little guys would playfully fight with each other, you push me and I grab you, their cute and naughty looks make people laugh.

Su Jingyao lay on her side, supporting her head with one hand and using the other hand to protect her two children from accidentally falling off the bed.

His eyes were full of tenderness and doting as he watched the children playing, as if time had stopped at this moment.

She is an orphan in modern times and has never experienced family love. However, when she came here, she felt the love from her parents as well as the blood relationship passed on to her by her children.

All of this made Su Jingyao feel extremely warm.

Because of the little princess, Jun Zechen no longer had someone take her away directly when she came to Kunning Palace like he did with Xingxing before.

Instead, he would lie on the bed with her, with a gentle smile on his face, and reach out to tease the two children. The scene was very heartwarming.

Two days passed after returning from the Qianqing Palace.

After Su Jingyao finished dealing with some things, she leaned on the bed as usual, accompanying her two active children.

The little princess is simply lawless. She knows how to bully her brother when she is only one year old.

If her brother fought back, she would take unsteady steps and run to Su Jingyao, complaining to her mother in a baby voice.

Cute and funny.

At this time, Miaoyun walked in quietly and bowed slightly.

"Master, the Princess of Qingping County has submitted a memorial requesting an audience."

After hearing this, Su Jingyao raised her eyebrows, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Jun Zechen handled it so quickly?

"Well, let her come to the palace in the afternoon, and you send someone to pick her up."

Su Jingyao looked calm and spoke lightly.

-

When Princess Qingping entered the palace, Su Jingyao specially dressed up, put on gorgeous palace clothes, and sat dignifiedly on the couch in the warm room.

Her posture was graceful and her expression was calm.

"Your humble servant pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen. May Your Majesty be blessed with good health."

Princess Qingping bowed respectfully, her voice clear but with a hint of nervousness.

"Please stand up, my lady. Miaoyun, please take a seat."

Su Jingyao raised her hand slightly, motioning her to stand up, with a faint smile on her face.

The Princess of Qingping County was wearing plain clothes today. Her cold face seemed to be deeply tired, and her eyes were a little dim.

After she slowly sat down.

Su Jingyao asked softly, "Why does the county lady look unhappy? Could it be that my brother bullied her?"

Su Jingyao's eyes were filled with concern, yet also seemed to contain a hint of inquiry.

After hearing this, Qi Wanyin's face turned even paler. Then she took a deep breath and spoke.

"Your Majesty, I have come here today to discuss something with you."

She clenched her folded hands tighter.

"Your Highness, please feel free to speak."

Su Jingyao sat up straighter and looked at her calmly.

"This subject wishes to cancel her marriage with Minister Su."

Princess Qingping bit her lip, her expression firm yet a little uneasy.

Su Jingyao's gaze suddenly became sharp, and she fell directly on the Princess of Qingping County, remaining silent for a long time.

Her eyes carried a strong sense of oppression.

Princess Qingping trembled slightly under such a look.

If His Majesty had not threatened her, how could she have canceled the marriage?

Minister Su...he is really nice.

She had clearly erased all traces of the matter, so how could His Majesty find out?

The most important thing is, why does Your Majesty want to investigate her?

Princess Qingping stood up from the stool and knelt in front of Su Jingyao.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. My words and actions are inconsistent. I know that my actions will bring shame to the Su family, but I originally returned to the capital just to find someone to rely on."

Princess Qingping's voice was filled with tears and her head was deeply lowered.

"Minister Su is a very warm person, but whether it's because of my childhood experiences in Junguo or my later experiences in Canglang, I have lost the ability to like someone."

Princess Qingping began to sob as she spoke.

"This humble servant does not want to delay Minister Su. Minister Su deserves a better woman."

Princess Qingping raised her head, her eyes blurred with tears, and her words were sincere.

"In another half month, the Queen Mother will return to the palace. I only want to be with her for the rest of my life, always accompanied by the green lamps and ancient Buddhas. I beg Your Majesty to grant this wish."

Princess Qingping kowtowed again.

Su Jingyao remained silent.

If Su Jingyao didn't know the whole story, she would probably sympathize with Qi Wanyin because of her performance.

Then she said, "Since Princess Qingping has made up her mind, marriage should be based on mutual consent. If she is unwilling, I will not force her."

"But... I don't know if my brother knows about your decision?" Su Jingyao asked.

"I have come to pay my respects to Her Majesty today. After obtaining Her Majesty's consent, I will inform Minister Su." Princess Qingping replied quickly.

"Well, in that case, the county lady can withdraw."

Su Jingyao waved her hand with a cold expression.

"Yes, I will take my leave."

Princess Qingping kowtowed again, then stood up and slowly left the warm room.
