“Last time, His Majesty called my whole family into the palace to give me a marriage. This time, I don’t know what it is for…” Yan Ling sits in the carriage, helpless for a while.
Yesterday, she stayed with Princess Zhaoyan for a long time. When she went home at night, she felt very tired. She was going to sleep a little longer this morning, but she didn’t expect that there was a message from the Palace, saying that the Emperor wanted to see her.
If it is in the past, Yan Ling would not worry about it. But now, after all, it’s a very special time. The jade pendant was just handed in. Who knows if the Emperor suddenly finds something wrong?
If so… Yan Ling suddenly feels worried.
Liyi smiles and says, “Maybe the Emperor really likes you, My Lady.”
Yan Ling can’t help frowning. Liyi thinks like that because the Emperor often summons Princess Zhaoyan. However, Yan Ling is not the same as her.
Qingyu sees that Yan Ling’s face is not right. She quickly smiles and explains: “if His Majesty really likes My Lady, he only needs to ask My Lady to go into the Palace alone. But the whole family are called this time.”
Originally, there is nothing wrong with this, but as soon as Qingyu says this, Liyi’s face suddenly changes. She lowers her head and stops talking.
Yan Ling is still thinking about other things, and naturally doesn’t notice the scene in front of her.
After they reach the main hall, Yan Ling suddenly falls into a trance. If she isn’t sure she doesn’t go back to her previous life, she really thinks it is the day when the Emperor wants to give her marriage.
It’s not surprising to say that because the people in the hall are all the same as they were in her previous life. Seeing this scene, Yan Ling feels more uneasy and couldn’t help thinking.
“Now that we are all here, I’ll tell you why I’m calling you today…” The Emperor looks around and takes out the jade pendant.
Seeing this jade pendant again, Yan Ling suddenly panics after thinking of her previous speculation again. She cannot help looking towards Liang He.
As soon as Yan Ling entered the Hall, Liang He noticed something wrong with her. Seeing her looking at himself carefully, he suddenly understands what is in Yan Ling’s mind, and he quickly smiles at her placidly, motioning Yan Ling not to speak.
Yan Ling was a little uneasy, but when she sees this smile, she suddenly feels relieved. She doesn’t know why she stops feeling scared as long as she sees Liang He’s confident appearance.
“Last time, I wanted to use this jade pendant to match Yi’er and Yan Ling, but I didn’t expect that the two young persons were unwilling. I made a joke then.” There is nothing wrong with the Emperor’s expression. He says that with a majestic smile.
“How could it be a joke, Your Majesty? I believe both of them understand that you meant well. It’s just matter of fate.” Says Concubine De, then she covers her mouth with a handkerchief to hide her coy smile.
“That’s true. I won’t say much about later events. In short, the purpose of calling you here today is that I think there needs to be a conclusion as to this matter. Now that the jade pendant has been sent back, I’ll give up the previous matchmaking.” The Emperor says with a smile.
It is for this reason. Yan Ling suddenly feels relieved and laughs at herself because she thought too much before. Although it seems superfluous, the Emperor’s practice is necessary if we think about it from another angle.
“Father, I have something to ask for.” Just as they are to leave after some small talks, Liang He suddenly steps forward.
“Just say it. But, you seldom ask me for anything.” The Emperor says and frowns slightly.
The Emperor seems to have some incomprehension. If Liang He has something to talk with him, why not tell him alone, but choose to say in front of so many people. It’s a little unreasonable if this is considered carefully.
“Father, I have been getting along well with Miss Yan for a month. Until now I find out that I have been admiring Miss Yan for a long time. I also hope that Father will make the decision and marry Ling’er for me.” Liang He suddenly kneels down.
All the people do not respond to what happened. Especially Liang Yi looks very ugly now.
Liang Yi has always hoped that Yan Ling would marry the Crown Prince, but that should be under his arrangement, rather than Liang He’s initiative.
Originally, Liang Yi would not refuse the Emperor’s marriage if he had another choice. Liang Yi is still trying to make Yan Ling fall in love with him. He certainly do not want to make such a simple choice.
However, the Emperor’s matchmaking is not a joke. If this happens, there will be no chance to change. Liang Yi will not allow such a thing to happen.
However, it is precisely because of this that Liang Yi, who is not successful in pursuing Yan Ling, has also fallen into a new dilemma. Liang Yi has been wondering during this period of time what kind of method should be used to make Yan Ling love him.
However, what has caught Liang Yi by surprise is that Liang He actually takes advantage of this time and puts forward his marriage proposal with Yan Ling to the Emperor.
If Yan Ling agrees because of the previous things, Liang Yi’s future actions will be difficult.
Of course, there is another reason. Liang Yi has always been excellent among people, but even so, he has been under the pressure from Liang He. Since they were children, Liang Yi has been competing with Liang He, but others think he is inferior to him in many aspects, which he refuses to admit.
If it’s in other aspects, Liang Yi will recognize that he can’t compare with Liang He. But even Yan Ling, a woman, can only see Liang He, and doesn’t care about him. Liang Yi’s heart is filled with resentment. Next second, he stands beside Liang He.
“Father, I have something to say.” Liang Yi suddenly says.
The Emperor is still thinking about it. Now Liang Yi comes out and interrupts,and he has no choice but to look at him puzzled and says, “Yi’er, say what you want to say.”
“Father, after a month’s consideration, I feel that Miss Yan is gentle and virtuous. I used to be blind to that virtues. I also hope that Father take back the order. I’m willing to marry Miss Ling.” Liang Yi then lowers his head and takes a quiet look at Liang He.
Liang He turns away slightly and can see his good brother with a satisfied smile. Although his action seems to have no difference from his normal behavior, he already cuts Liang Yi into pieces in his heart.
Liang He said that he would never let Yan Ling be used by anyone, and Liang Yi’s purpose of doing all this is obvious, that is, he wants to use the identity of Yan Ling, who is the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Yan, to help to achieve his purpose.
Liang Yi had refused the marriage, but when Liang He came out, he suddenly stood out and announced that he would accept the marriage with Yan Ling. Isn’t it just for another purpose?
