My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 149
The spring breeze caresses the face, and the weather is getting warmer.

Chang Sining stood on the covered bridge, looked at the red carps in the water, and became dazed again.

Ever since I traveled with Zhu Zhanhe on the Lantern Festival that day and Chang Sining returned home, the entire Marquis of Navigation went crazy. No one thought that the prince of the King of Han would choose Miss Biao from his own mansion.

Mrs. Chang wiped her tears happily, Zhang Rong, Marquis of Navigation, personally ordered that the most beautiful courtyard in the mansion be vacated for Chang Sining to live in.

But Chang Sining was very restless, the huge pressure even made her lose sleep one after another, and she lost a lot of weight.

Chang Si Ning is very smart, she knows that her aunt wants her to marry the eldest son, so as to help her elder brother revive the Chang family, and her uncle also hopes that through this marriage, the status of the Hou family will be improved among the nobles.

Thinking of the above, Chang Sining felt like these few fish in the water, who could only stay in this small pond and let others manipulate them.

For Zhu Zhanhe, Chang Sining had a good impression of him, especially on the Lantern Festival, she also had a great time, and Zhu Zhanhe's erudition and humor made her even more fond of him.

But thinking of getting married, Chang Sining instinctively felt a little afraid. Since she was sensible, she lived with her aunt, and she also watched her aunt degenerate step by step from a heroic woman to the point where she was almost divorced.

This made Chang Sining very wary of marriage, and it was difficult for her to entrust her whole life to a man who had only seen two sides.

"What do you think?"

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly asked.

Chang Sining was startled, turned around and saw her aunt walking over with two maids.

"I didn't think about anything, why are you here, aunt?"

Chang Sining forced a smile.

"You girl, you have been thinking hard since you were a child!"

Although Chang Sining didn't say anything, Mrs. Chang could actually guess something, but she didn't ask, but pointed to the tray in the maid's hand and said: "I have someone make some clothes for you, you can try them later Try to see if it fits?"

"Ok!"

Chang Sining did not refuse. Since the Shangyuan Festival, her aunt has once again controlled the power of the entire Hou Mansion. After all, for her uncle Zhang Rong, their Chang family is much more useful than those few concubines.

Seeing that her niece still looked preoccupied, Mrs. Chang sighed, waved her hand to let the maids back down, and then stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Sining, don't think too much, as women, we are going to marry sooner or later." human!"

"I... I know, but I'm still a little worried!"

Chang Sining replied in a low voice.

"I know what you are worried about. Are you worried that the eldest son is like your uncle, who was very caring at the beginning, but later revealed his true nature, and even became estranged from you day by day?"

Madam Chang also sighed at the end.

"I didn't think that far, but I was a little worried."

Chang Si Ning nodded slightly and said, her parents died since she was a child, in her heart, her aunt is her mother, so she will not hide anything from her.

"You girl still think too much!"

Mrs. Chang stretched out her hand to stroke Chang Si Ning's beautiful hair, and then said again.

"I don't dare to say anything else, but at least I can be sure that the prince should like you very much. You must know that among the dozen or so women who went there on the Lantern Festival, which family background is not stronger than ours?"

Mrs. Chang paused for a while and continued: "You must know that the son chooses you, and I am afraid that he will have to bear a lot of pressure. The princess and even His Majesty will not agree easily, but he still chooses you. It is enough to prove that he likes you!"

"But a momentary liking doesn't prove anything. Didn't my aunt say before that men change their hearts easily?"

Chang Sining was a little moved when he heard the words, but asked again.

"It's true that men change their minds easily, but the influence must also be considered. In fact, for the royal family, the position of the main wife is generally very stable, especially after giving birth to a son."

When Mrs. Chang mentioned her son, her expression darkened. Not having an heir was the biggest pain in her heart.

But Mrs. Chang quickly cheered up and said again: "Let's not talk about others, just talk about the Crown Princess and Princess Han. Both of them came from low backgrounds, but after marrying into the royal family and giving birth to a son, their status became more stable than the other. Even a girl from the Guo family with a higher family background can only marry as a side concubine."

"Why does my aunt keep talking about having a baby?"

When Chang Si Ning heard this, his face turned slightly red, after all, as a woman who has not left the cabinet, she still couldn't let go of such things.

"There is no way. For us women, only by giving birth to our own children can we stabilize our family status. You don't know that the daughters-in-law of the prince's family would even give up their lives just to have a son."

Mrs. Chang didn't know about Zhang Zhong, otherwise she would definitely use it as an example to tell Chang Sining.

But at this moment, suddenly there was a rush of footsteps coming from outside, and then Zhang Rong ran in in a panic and shouted: "Madam is not well, something happened to the prince!"

"What's wrong, son?"

Chang Sining's face turned pale when he heard the words, and asked first.

"The prince asked His Majesty to marry Si Ning of our family, but His Majesty refused, and His Majesty also asked the prince a difficult problem, saying that unless someone can fly to the sky, the prince will not want to marry Si Ning!"

Zhang Rong explained anxiously.

Ever since he knew that Zhu Zhanhe had chosen Chang Sining, Zhang Rong wanted to treat Chang Sining as his own daughter, but now that the marriage has twists and turns, he is of course very anxious.

"Where did your husband hear the news?"

Mrs. Chang also asked eagerly.

"It's been rumored outside, and I don't know where the news came from, but since we can tell about the matter between the prince and our family Si Ning, it shouldn't be a lie!"

Zhang Rong hurriedly explained.

Early this morning, Zhang Rong went out to drink tea as usual, but met a few acquaintances, and then learned the news. He didn't believe it at first, so he sent someone to inquire around, and only then did he find out the news It has been spread all over the city.

Some people even came to ask Zhang Rong if it was true that his mansion was married to Hanwang's mansion?
When Chang Sining heard that it wasn't Zhu Zhanhe's accident, she immediately felt relieved. As for her and Zhu Zhanhe's marriage being blocked, she didn't take it seriously, and was even a little happy. If His Majesty objected, would she not Don't need to get married anymore?
"It's over now, His Majesty objected, and deliberately made things difficult for the prince. This is simply not agreeing to this marriage!"

Zhang Rong was jumping anxiously at this moment, finally such a big pie fell from the sky, but it turned out to be fine now, he could only watch but couldn't eat it.

But just when Zhang Rong was in a hurry, he saw a steward rushing to report: "Master Hou, the prince is here to visit!"
