Except King Chu, I don’t like anyone

"What does this mean? Which young man doesn't have a few pretty girls in his room?"

"My mother said, those things are the same as cats and dogs. If I like them, I can live. If I don't like them, I can sell them anytime and anywhere without even saying hello."

Wang Xiangjun raised his face to face the spring rain and dew.

As the legitimate daughter of the Wang family, she has been surrounded by people since she was a child. She is surrounded by wet nurses, maids, maids and daughters-in-law in her daily life.

She is no worse than the queen's direct princess.

Apart from the stars and the moon in the sky, there is nothing that Wang Xiangjun cannot get.

Hongjiao still wanted to persuade him, but Wang Xiangjun lowered his face again.

"However, I still have to keep a low profile. My mother said that my daughter's family should be quieter. If someone is as wild as the fourth princess, no one will really like her. Even if there is a consort who is willing to marry, it will only be due to pressure."

"I don't want to be like that."

She threw the handkerchief to Hongjia, took a new one in her hand, and walked back with a shy look on her face.

——

The banquet went smoothly that day.

The ladies in the morning were all in their prime, and the young talents in the afternoon were also invincible on the school grounds, with some competing on horseback and in archery.

Everyone is satisfied.

It can be seen with the naked eye that several of them are already chatting with each other. The queen herself also likes two people with good family backgrounds and looks. She needs to know more.

After the party ended that night, the queen set up a table in Jiaofang Palace and called all the children over.

My mother-in-law invited me, and all the princes and princesses came early.

"My mother is in such a good mood, I guess it's because my fourth sister has found a good family."

Xie Chenke is still a good big brother.

Xie Jingzhi's face turned red.

"What are you talking about, second brother? I don't want to get married. I want to stay with my mother in the palace all the time."

The queen poked her forehead and laughed.

"What is this silly kid talking about? How can a woman not get married?"

Then he looked at Xie Chenke: "Don't make fun of your sister, she is ashamed."

A row of good meals and dishes were served, and the queen opened a jar of osmanthus wine.

After three cups, the queen looked at Xie Chenyu.

"Is there a noble girl that Yu'er likes?"

"In a blink of an eye, even your fifth brother is getting engaged. You should also look at it and take it personally. Your mother will make the decision for you."

Xie Chenyu still waved his hand.

"Don't be impatient, son. Marriage between a man and a woman depends on fate."

"If you are destined, you can marry me tomorrow. If you are not destined, I may never get married."

The queen leaned over and laughed.

"Listen, here comes another silly child. One is unwilling to marry and the other is unwilling to marry. You are still too young."

"I'm just saying, I'm still young."

Xie Chenyu drank a cup of sweet-scented osmanthus wine and praised the good wine. After a while, he talked about the food and cleverly changed the topic.

The queen shook her head secretly and stopped asking further questions.

——

At the same time, Wang's backyard.

Mrs. Wang happily took her daughter's hand and whispered.

"Young Master Zheng, the eldest son of Shan Guo Gongfu, is seventeen this year. He has a majestic appearance and extraordinary martial prowess. Today, my mother at the school saw with my own eyes that he is a good marksman."

"Zhu Gongzi, the eldest son and grandson of Mr. Zhu Ge, is a student after the eighteenth year of the New Year. He is already a scholar and has achieved fame. He was among the top few in the last scientific examination. He is expected to win the top prize next time. Mom thinks he is not bad.

He writes with great calligraphy and majesty, he is really a good man."

"There are two other families that are a little less impressive, but they have good character. One is very good-looking, and the other is a famous filial son with outstanding conduct."

Mrs. Wang had already made inquiries, but today was the first time she saw the real person, and she immediately made a choice in her heart.

Wang Xiangjun, however, kept his head lowered and showed little interest.

She blushed when the question was asked urgently.

"Am I only worthy of marrying into these families?"

Mrs. Wang felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and it took her a while to recover.

"These are all aristocratic families carefully selected by mothers. None of them are poor. How can they be said to be worthy of them?"

"But our Wang family is obviously better."

Wang Xiangjun began to wring his handkerchief and buried his face even lower.

Mrs. Wang explained to her in detail: "My silly child, the only one higher than the lintel of our Wang family is the one at the top. Is it possible that you want to go in?"

"Your aunt feels sorry for you and has always told me to carefully select a young talent for you. Don't wade into muddy waters and say that women in the palace are too miserable."

"Your aunt loves you very much."

Wang Xiangjun secretly pursed his lips and muttered, 'Who knows if he feels sorry for me or if he doesn't want me to come in and replace her'.

When a family has a new backer, who will care about the old one?

The queen is unable to give birth. Once she is born, she will be the family's only hope. The queen is destined to be abandoned by the family.

"What did you say?"

"It's nothing, my daughter said she was grateful to my aunt."

"That's right." Mrs. Wang took her daughter's hand and smoothed her hair on her forehead.

"You are my only daughter, will mother harm you?"

"The families just now are not as good as our Wang family, but that's how you will be happy. Your husband's family is afraid of the Wang family, so they will respect you and treat you well. Your husband will also be more restrained. This is something no one else can ask for.

of"

Wang Xiangjun buried his head and said nothing, while Mrs. Wang became anxious.

"What on earth are you thinking, girl? I'm so worried."

"I don't know either. Mom, please let me think about it again."

"Okay, I'll give you ten days and a half to think it over carefully. Then no matter what, you have to tell me something. Mom is leaving first."

Before leaving the house, Mrs. Wang suddenly turned around and asked.

"Don't you think you already have someone in your heart?"

"Mom, what did you say? How could my daughter do such a rebellious thing?"

"That's good. My daughter deserves the best marriage in the world. Mom, I don't ask you to be rich and powerful, I just want you to live comfortably every day."

Mrs. Wang leaves.

Wang Xiangjun threw himself on the bed, covering his head with the quilt and closing his eyes. All he could think of was the smile of His Highness King Chu, who kicked all the gangsters away and stretched out his hand towards her.

He said: "Cousin, don't be afraid, I'm here."

It's such a cliche hero saving the beauty, but even this method still makes people unable to extricate themselves.

If nothing else, at least His Highness the King of Chu is by no means as romantic and lustful as the rumors say.

"He looks so pretty when he smiles. If I could become the Princess of Chu..."

Lifting the quilt, Wang Xiangjun's face was flushed.

Hongjiao panicked and covered her mouth.

"Miss, you must not have this idea. Madam and the Queen are doing it for your own good."

"Crack!"

He tore Hongjiao's hand apart and slapped him hard.

"When will it be your turn for a maid to talk too much about me?"

After the beating, Wang Xiangjun looked at his hand, turned it away in annoyance and took a few breaths.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't hit you"

Hongjiao knelt on the ground and covered her face: "I have lost my parents since I was a child. It was the young lady who bought me from the street and fed me, clothed me and lived together, so I can survive."

"My servant is not afraid of being beaten. I'm just afraid that you, Miss, will suffer a loss. The Prince of Chu's Mansion is not easy to enter."

"I know what you said is right. I will definitely be able to live well if I marry the family my mother chooses, but I am not willing to accept it."

"Hongjiao, do you know that everything has been arranged for me since I was born, what to eat, what to wear, what to learn, how to walk, how to eat, how to speak and behave, and now I have even chosen who to marry."

"There are many men who approach me, but I don't like any of them."
