Chapter 112 Chu Yunxi shows An Ling'er a clear path
"As long as you send someone to Goulan Washe to investigate this matter, you will naturally know whether what I said is groundless."
Chu Yunxi poured a cup of tea for An Ling'er and pushed it in front of her. An Ling'er only looked at it warily and did not drink it. Chu Yunxi didn't mind either.
"Xiao Zhang accidentally hit his head yesterday. The imperial doctor said that he will most likely become a fool."
Chu Yunxi continued to reveal.
"What?"
An Ling'er stood up suddenly and almost knocked over the tea cup in front of her.
Let her marry a fool? No, she doesn't want it even if she dies. But would Chu Yunxi be so kind and come to tell her the truth?
Even if this was a lie to her, she couldn't marry into Duke Xiao's house and live a life of darkness and torture.
No wonder, no wonder Guild Xiao threatened her eldest brother's life, no wonder they wanted to get married within a week.
"Princess." An Ling'er knelt down and kowtowed.
"In the past, it was Ling'er who was ignorant. Please save Ling'er's life for the sake of Brother Chu."
Chu Yunxi took a sip of tea.
"If you don't want to, you can tell your mother. She loves you so much, why would she watch you jump into the fire pit?"
She wanted to test the thoughts of Yong Kangbo and his wife.
An Ling'er originally felt that her mother loved her, but compared to her elder brother, she would give up on her. She suddenly felt sad. What she thought she relied on was actually so vulnerable.
"Xiao Guogong, if you threaten my eldest brother's life, my mother must also take care of my eldest brother."
She had to express the pain in her heart. Could it be that she had to jump into the fire pit to save her brother's life?
So, Chu Yunxi understood clearly, and then started to get to the point.
"At this point, only one person can save you. If you are willing, I can make arrangements for you."
"Who is it?" An Ling'er wanted to grab a glimmer of hope.
"King An." Chu Yunxi spat out these two words lightly.
"Prince An? Do you want me to ask Prince An? But I have no relationship with Prince An, so why would Prince An be willing to help me?"
An Ling'er couldn't figure out what she was going to do.
"If you can make Prince An accept you as his concubine and bring you into the palace within three days, everything will be solved. You can save both your eldest brother and yourself."
An Ling'er's eyes widened in shock, asking King An to accept her as his concubine within three days? How is that possible?
However, if it really succeeds, it will be much better than marrying Xiao Zhang, or even better than marrying Chu Wenzhong. Although she is a concubine, she is a princess after all. Who can say for sure what the future will bring.
"Please give me some advice from the Crown Princess."
An Ling'er's attitude became very respectful. She had reached a dead end. Chu Yunxi had given her hope, and she had to hold on tightly.
"Before that, I want to remind you that the water in Prince An's Mansion is also very deep. Maybe in the future, there will be many women vying for your favor. Princess An is not easy to get along with. You decide whether you want to do this or not.
You will regret it later.”
Although there was no better choice for An Ling'er in the current situation, Chu Yunxi still couldn't help but give a reminder.
"Yes, Ling'er knows that entering the royal family is as deep as the sea, but it is better than marrying an inhuman fool, and it can also save your elder brother. I am willing to try this road."
If you try hard, you may be able to get to the next level, which is better than waiting to die.
"But Ling'er still has a question. I hope the Crown Princess can give Ling'er some answers."
"Tell me." Chu Yunxi knew what she wanted to ask.
"Why did the Crown Princess help me?"
Chu Yunxi curled her lips: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Chu Xueer and I are enemies. Maybe you will be my enemy in the future, but at least now, our positions are consistent."
An Ling'er also smiled. Is that so, a dispute between concubines? Chu Yunxi can't escape the dirty things in the back house. In this way, she feels relieved. The future is still far away, at least for now, this is her
The best choice.
"It all depends on the arrangements of the Crown Princess."
"Well, tomorrow, King An will take Princess An back home in three days. Come to the general's mansion, and I will arrange for you to be alone with King An. You should seize the opportunity. How far you can go depends on your ability.
Already."
An Ling'er returned to Yongkang Bo Mansion, her heart still beating chaotically.
She was just thinking about how she should behave tomorrow to attract Prince An's attention, when Mrs. Yongkang Bo came again.
"Ling'er, mother knows that this matter is too hasty, and you can't accept it for a while, but who can you live with, not to live with it, not to mention that the power of the Xiao Kingdom is overwhelming, and how many people want to marry the Xiao family but can't."
An Ling'er just listened to her mother's persuasion quietly, and Mrs. Yongkangbo had no choice but to continue:
"The eldest son of An Guogong has been weak and sick since he was a child, and is unknown to the public. In the future, the position of Duke will be passed on to the second son, Xiao Zhang. If you marry Xiao Zhang, you will be the Duke's wife in the future, and she will have unlimited glory."
"Mother, you asked me to marry Xiao Zhang, are you doing it for me or for your eldest brother?"
An Ling'er had never thought there was anything wrong with her mother's profit-seeking before. It could make her live a good life, so why not do it. Only when it happened to herself did she feel heartbroken.
"Of course, of course it's for the sake of both of you." Mrs. Yongkangbo didn't know why her daughter suddenly asked this, and she felt a little guilty.
"Does mother know that Second Young Master Xiao is a frequent visitor to the Fireworks Land and has bad habits?"
An Ling'er stared closely into her mother's eyes. Seeing her eyes twinkling, her heart sank again. Her mother knew it and came to persuade her to agree to the marriage.
"Ling'er, listen to what my mother said, there are no men who are not lecherous. The only difference is whether they avoid people's attention. But there is only one main wife. No matter how hard a man goes outside, he still has to return home in the end."
As Mrs. Yongkangbo talked, even she believed her own words, and the more she talked, the smoother she became.
"Second Young Master Xiao will vent his quirks, but he won't do that to his wife. The law doesn't allow it."
"Mother, is the murder law allowed? If they cared about the law, they wouldn't threaten us with the life of our eldest brother."
An Ling'er asked the last question she wanted to ask.
"If I die if I marry into the Xiao family, will my mother still insist on me getting married?"
"No, how could he die? Ling'er, if you don't get married, your eldest brother will really die. Thinking about how good your eldest brother is to you, can you bear it?"
Looking at the mother in front of her who was full of her son, An Ling'er felt extremely strange. Could it be that her mother only gave birth to her in exchange for benefits?
"I will think about it carefully. Mother should go back first."
She was not going to tell her mother about tomorrow's events. She had to decide her own destiny.
When Chu Yunxi returned home, she also made preparations and told General Chu and Mrs. Chu about her plan. Otherwise, she was afraid that her father would have a bad face tomorrow and would kick Jun Hongyan out of the general's mansion with just a few words.
.
Mrs. Chu didn't agree at first. She didn't want Chu Yunxi's clean hands to be contaminated by such dirty things.
But after hearing about Xiao Zhang's situation, Mrs. Chu had nothing to say. Who to marry is not better than marrying a well-dressed beast like Xiao Zhang? Although she can't talk about doing good, she is not doing evil and harming other girls.
