"I have been in contact with him for about half a year. He is indeed a very good person. His speech and behavior are very decent. Although he is a prince and a prince, he has no airs at all." Liu's daughter swallowed.

He took a sip of saliva, took a deep breath, and continued, "There are many young masters in Xijing City who are not as good as him. They all have higher airs than anyone else. We have met them before when we went out to play. I don't know Ning.

Before becoming His Highness the King, he was arrogant in front of him. After knowing his identity, he began to grovel and be extremely flattering. But His Highness Prince Ning had the same attitude from beginning to end, polite and polite to everyone.

Be polite and don’t show off to anyone.”

"This makes you very excited?" Jin Miaomiao leaned on the stone table and looked at Liu's daughter, "But aren't all true gentlemen like this?" She pointed at the Luan family master, "Isn't the Luan family master the same?

the same?"

"It's different, it's different." The head of the Luan family denied it repeatedly, "Compared with His Highness Prince Ning, there is a huge difference. My wife likes His Highness Prince Ning. I am not surprised at all. After all, I am not the same as Prince Ning."

I am afraid that there are very few people His Highness has come into contact with who do not like him or admire him, regardless of gender or age, this is the charm of this person."

After listening to the words of the head of the Luan family, Liu's daughter thought of the figure she was obsessed with when she was young and what he once said to her. She sighed softly. If it weren't for fate, maybe...

Thinking of this, she shook her head gently. There is no regret medicine in this world, and nothing will happen again.

"Mrs. Luan!" Jin Miaomiao saw Liu's daughter falling into deep thought again. She knocked heavily on the stone table next to her, "When did you know that you were Princess Ning's candidate?"

"It was my fifteenth birthday. When my father came back from work, he was very happy and said that he wanted to give me a great birthday gift. I thought it was a small ornament that I had always wanted, but in my life

At the birthday party, my father told me that His Highness Prince Ning has now reached the age to choose a concubine, and there are ten candidates, and I am one of them."

"You don't seem very happy to know this news, right?" Jin Miaomiao tilted her head and looked at Liu's daughter with some doubts, "Maybe you are not happy to be the candidate for Princess Ning, but you are not very obsessed with him.

?"

"Admiration and infatuation are one thing, but it's another thing for you to actually get involved." Liu's daughter paused for a moment, a helpless smile flashed across her face, and said, "I never thought that

, I have the qualifications to be one of the candidates. As we all know, my family background is not that good, and my appearance is not outstanding. My only advantage is probably my personality. When I was young, I was really introverted and unwilling to contradict others.

I won’t reject others, and I think it’s really easy to handle.”

"Actually, in the eyes of the royal family, your shortcomings are your real strengths. Whether you have outstanding appearance is not important, and family background is even less important. As for your character, you can slowly polish it later. Although I have never seen it

What was Mrs. Luan like when she was young, but after such a short contact, Mrs. Luan's character is not weak and can be bullied. There are also some rumors outside that the virtuous couple are also decisive in killing, and they are also consistent in the shopping mall.

It can be seen that the personality of young people can also be changed, and this is the least important thing."

"What this gentleman said is right, but I still don't think I am a suitable candidate. In addition, my father said that the reason why I can be one of the candidates is because of the recommendation of the Empress Dowager, who is the Empress Dowager."

I am even less willing to think highly of me. I know a little bit about the relationship between my family and the Empress Dowager, and at that time I felt..."

"My father-in-law sold you to the Empress Dowager in order to maintain the relationship, right?" Seeing his wife nodding, the head of the Luan family twitched his lips, "My father-in-law once said that although he was sorry for doing this, he had no choice but to do so.

s Choice."

"I know, so I didn't refuse, even though I didn't really want to." Liu's daughter raised her neck, "I still remember the first time I entered the palace as a candidate to meet the empresses in the harem.

Each of the ten candidates enters the palace at a different time. For the sake of fairness and because we don’t know who the other people are, they must be separated."

"Is that also your first time entering the palace?"

"Yes!" Ms. Liu nodded. She looked at Jin Miaomiao and saw that she frowned slightly and smiled lightly. "Does this adult find it strange that the Empress Dowager has never seen her before?

Me, but you must be one of the alternatives?"

"Because she only has you as an alternative, right?"

"Absolutely! I didn't know until later that the Empress Dowager had chosen many girls before, but none of them were very to her liking. It wasn't until she met me and she felt very satisfied that she added to the list of candidates."

"That is to say, when you first entered the palace, it was not really finalized, right?"

"Yeah!" Mrs. Liu nodded, and seeing the confused looks on several people's faces, she said, "Ordinary families who choose their daughter-in-law have to look at each other several times before they can decide whether they really want to propose marriage.

, not to mention the royal wedding, which is a very important matter. You need to be cautious, cautious, and more cautious. Our whole process lasted almost a year."

"So long?" Jin Miaomiao looked surprised, "Do you have to go to the palace every once in a while?"

"More than that." Ms. Liu couldn't help but shake her head as she recalled what happened that year. She also felt extremely painful. "From the moment the candidate is confirmed, the palace will send older female officials and teaching mothers to the mansion.

, teach the rules and etiquette of the palace. They do not live in the mansion all the time. Basically, they live for a few days every three months to take the exam. If they pass the exam, they can change to the next content. If they fail three times,

They will be eliminated. I heard that there was a girl who was eliminated in the first assessment. I and the other two girls stayed until the end. The final assessment was to go to the palace. It was a whole process, and I learned something in the past six months.

We all took the exam and we were lucky enough to pass.”

"Then what?" Jin Miaomiao blinked, "It's over now? Aren't we going to choose a concubine?"

"It's not over yet. As I said before, let His Highness Prince Ning come and see each other in person to see which one he likes more or which one he has a better affinity for."

"He chose you?"

"The progress was not that fast. The Empress Dowager strongly recommended me, but the other two girls were also recommended by other concubines. The harem was so noisy because of this, and the late emperor was very annoyed. Finally, the late emperor came up with a way, saying that we could first

Let’s get in touch and see which one His Highness Prince Ning likes and which one he accepts more.”

"In other words, His Highness Prince Ning not only went out to play with you, but also went out with two other people?" Seeing Liu's daughter reluctantly nodding, Jin Miaomiao raised an eyebrow and asked Shen Cha He said, "If we draw cards from him again in the future, we will definitely not choose the one he chose. We are not very lucky. We can choose the worst card among the three choices."

"That's wrong. I'll have to look for him when playing cards from now on. Anyway, we're not very lucky. We can definitely get an advantage playing cards with him, right?" Xue Ruitian looked at Liu's daughter who had an unsightly face and snorted. He said, "I will definitely win a lot of money!"

Shen Haolin and Shen Cha looked at Xue Ruitian and shook their heads helplessly. Shen Cha raised his chin towards Jin Miaomiao and asked her to continue.

"Although we don't agree with His Highness Prince Ning's choice, he chose you, you have affection for him, get along well with each other, and marriage is just around the corner. Why do you want to break off the engagement suddenly?" Jin Miaomiao paused, " If I remember correctly, you personally went into the palace to mention this matter to the late emperor, the empress dowager, and the other two princes, and your attitude was very firm, right?"

"Yes, I mentioned it myself, but it was not out of my true intention. Since the two of us got engaged, my life has not been as good as I imagined. Every time I go out with His Highness Prince Ning or meet with him, After coming back, my father will interrogate what His Highness Prince Ning said and whether he asked him everything he wanted to know. Not only that, if you go out with His Highness Prince Ning on the first day, you will be called into the palace the next day. The Queen Mother would also ask the same questions as my father."

"That is, they are using you to inquire about some information from His Highness Prince Ning, or to inquire about His Highness Prince Ning's attitude, right?"

"Yes, it makes me very nervous. Every time we meet, I feel a lot of pressure. Because I know that His Highness will not be able to answer my questions. If I ask them too many times, His Highness will be unhappy. .”

"Is he really upset?"

Liu's daughter did not answer immediately, and the scene of their last meeting appeared in front of her eyes. At that time, she had already felt the change in His Highness Prince Ning's attitude towards her. The two of them never talked about anything and had nothing to talk about. In just three or two months, during the next two or three meetings, they didn't even speak. They just sat there for a few hours and then went back when it was time to go back. Even though she took the initiative to chat with His Highness Prince Ning and talked about some ordinary things. Asked, His Highness Prince Ning's expression was also very calm, his eyes were as calm as ever, and he was not moved by her words at all.

"He probably knew something, and he was very cold towards me afterwards. We..." Ms. Liu shook her head gently, "Even if I had not proposed to break off the engagement, we would not have gotten married. The final outcome would still be the same."

"Because he knows you have evil intentions, right?"

"Maybe, he is not a fool. Every time I come out to meet him, I have to go into the palace to see the Empress Dowager. You probably know that!"

"You just said that breaking off the engagement was not your intention, but your father's or the Empress Dowager's intention?"

"Yes, my father came back that day and said that he wanted to take me to the palace and ask me to personally tell the late emperor to break off the engagement. I didn't understand why, but my father said it was the Empress Dowager's wish, so I had no choice but to do it." Mrs. Liu. The woman looked at the head of the Luan family next to her, "I broke off the engagement with His Highness Prince Ning that day. The next day, my father proposed marriage to the Luan family. In less than half a month, I married into the Luan family and became a member of the Luan family. Luan family. After I got married, in just one month, His Highness Prince Ning was sent to guard the imperial mausoleum by the late emperor because he made a mistake."

The head of the Luan family looked at his wife, smiled at her, and said, "Although you failed to marry the person you love most, we are still pretty good, right?"

"It's just the person I used to love the most." Liu's daughter also looked at the head of the Luan family, "Although I was in a bad mood just now because many things have been pressing in my heart for too long, it doesn't mean that I still miss him."

"I know, I believe you!"

Hong Ye couldn't help but shudder when she saw the couple's loving eyes facing each other.

"What? Is it cold?"

"No, I feel sick, very sick, and about to vomit!" Hong Ye hugged Shen Cha's arm and whispered, "Don't you think the way they are now, especially the one named Luan, is really disgusting. Niwai, is it disgusting?"

"Doesn't this mean that the relationship between the couple is good?" Shen Cha looked at Hong Ye's disgusted expression and found it funny, "Before, my father, mother, Uncle Xue, and Aunt Xue were more... well, affectionate than them, and they never disliked it so much. Huh? What happened today?"

"Look at what you said, can true love be the same as this kind of pretense?" Hongye snorted, leaned against Shen Cha, and lowered his voice, "These two people are really better at acting than the other. Isn’t it?”

"Yeah!" Shen Cha nodded, "One pretends to be weak and innocent, and the other pretends to be a sad husband." She raised her eyebrows slightly, "It doesn't matter anymore, we just need to know what thoughts they have about His Highness Prince Ning. Judging from their current statements, it is similar to what we estimated."

"Yes!" Shen Haolin listened to the conversation between the two people and nodded slightly, "Mrs. Luan's story was interrupted several times by us, but she could still continue smoothly, which shows that they have rehearsed it many times beforehand. It’s all prepared for us.”

"Since you have prepared so hard, let them continue with the performance. It will not be in vain that they have spent so much effort." Shen Cha chuckled, "However, I watched with cold eyes just now, Mrs. Luan's use of Uncle Ning Wang. The love is very deep!"

"Really? Really?" Hongye raised his head and glanced at the head of the Luan family and the daughter of the Liu family. Seeing that they were still looking at each other affectionately, he quickly buried his head on Shen Cha's shoulder, "Oh, I'm going to go blind." Lost!"

Seeing her like this, Shen Cha shook his head harmlessly, exchanged looks with Xue Ruitian and Shen Haolin, and the three of them sighed at the same time.

The head of the Luan family and the daughter of the Liu family were not very clear about what the four people behind were muttering. Although they had rehearsed before, at this time, they thought of their own experiences and the decades they had walked together with each other. , it was inevitable that we would become emotional, and we could see crystal tears in each other’s eyes.

"Don't cry, don't cry, it's not time to cry yet." The head of the Luan family looked at the tears falling from the corners of Liu's daughter's eyes, feeling a little distressed and said, "I have really worked hard for you in the past few decades!"
