The ghost-catching princess, she always pretends to be weak

Chapter 97 Forced Promise
  "I'll go take a look."

Wen Jiu walked in and gently opened the door.

The window facing the back mountain was not closed, and the wind from outside was still a bit cold.

After all, this is the foot of the mountain, which is a bit colder than the downtown area.

Si Huai'an heard the sound of the door being opened and felt it was noisy.

"Didn't you tell me not to come in and disturb me?"

She turned her head and saw Wen Jiu standing by the door with red eyes, as if he had been extremely wronged.

"Jiu'er? Why are you here? You look like you're being bullied."

Even though she was going to get married now and had too much time to take care of herself, she was still worried about whether Wen Jiu was being bullied.

Si Huai'an's face looked ugly, his usual bright eyes completely gone.

Wen Jiu wiped the corners of his eyes, "It's okay, I just feel a little sad when I see the princess in pain."

Si Huaian was calm and even smiled at Wen Jiu, but the smile was uglier than crying.

"I'm fine, Jiuer, don't worry."

Si Huai'an seemed to be like this in the past. He didn't show any airs in front of her and seemed to be unable to find any faults.

Everyone thinks that Si Huai'an is willful.

But Wen Jiu knew that she was just afraid and always used some method to attract the attention of the empress.

The Holy Emperor has many heirs, but Si Huai'an does not have his own mother, only one father.

Afraid of being forgotten.

But in the end it was the emperor and the empress who sent her to get married regardless of their friendship of nearly twenty years.

This is the royal family affection, the favor that everyone envies.

Wen Jiu's eyes turned red again. She took a deep breath and suppressed her emotions.

"I asked dad to plead with the emperor. As long as you don't embark on the road of marriage, there will be a chance of improvement."

Si Huai'an stepped forward and held Wen Jiu's hand, which was frighteningly cold.

"Why bother to annoy my father? I know your thoughts and accept your wishes. There is no need to let Mr. Wen go through this."

Wen Jiu's tears immediately fell. Si Huai'an hugged her and cried silently, "When are you and Lu Xu planning to get married? You see that you have been sick all year round and a good marriage has been delayed for a long time. I can't even send you off to get married." , welcome you into the royal family."

"If I get married, I will definitely tell you."

Didn't it have anything to do with Lu Xu? Wen Jiu just hoped that Si Huai'an would live in peace.

When the news of the marriage was confirmed, Si Huaian calmly returned to the academy to pack his things without crying or fussing.

The calmer she was, the more heartache Wen Jiu felt.

"Jiu'er, do you know? I used to think that I was my father's most beloved daughter. He also said so. He still says so today. I am his most beloved daughter."

"But I can't believe it anymore. If it was my most beloved daughter, how could I go and get married?"

"Fifth sister contradicted the emperor for me. She obviously couldn't protect herself. Now she is locked up in Anping Palace by the imperial concubine and is not allowed to leave even an inch."

"My father and those ministers said that I am very important. I am the princess and I want to maintain the diplomatic relations between the two countries. After I get married, I have to think about everything."

"But I know that when it comes to marriage, I am the least important thing."

"Jiu'er, the emperor of Daqian also had a queen. I was married to a noble concubine."

"What is a noble concubine? In an ordinary person's house, she would be a concubine. I have been growing up in the palace since I was a child, and now I have to compete with a bunch of women for the favor of a man I don't know in a place I don't know at all."

Wen Jiu couldn't bear to listen any more and interrupted her: "Princess. Otherwise, run away. I'll help you."

She would call her senior brothers and Jiang Yaoxi.

I will call those brats, even if I call that person.

"And Lu Xu, he will definitely help you."

Si Huai'an seemed not to have heard anything and continued to hold Wen Jiu's hand: "Jiu'er, is there no royal land in the world? Where can I escape to?"

"If I escape, will the fifth sister get married? If the fifth sister also escapes, no one can escape the blame for the war."

Wen Jiu was suddenly speechless.

Neither is marrying, nor is running away. How much money a princess can use from the royal family is not as much as one ten thousandth of what those corrupt officials get from squeezing the people.

If we talk about supreme power, it is only enjoyed by the one who sits at the top.

But in the end, he let his powerless daughter bear all this.

Wen Jiu didn't know how he said goodbye to Si Huaian.

But at the end I heard her say: "Don't come see me off on my wedding day, I'm afraid I won't be able to part with you."

She didn't go to the study room. She didn't miss those books anymore.

She walked out of the academy alone as if she had lost her soul.

She didn't even notice Lu Xu walking towards him.

"Aren't there classes in the academy today?"

Lu Xu thought Wen Jiu had seen him, so he dismounted.

Unexpectedly, Wen Jiu didn't react at all.

He grabbed Wen Jiu who passed by him.

"What happened?"

Wen Jiu then turned his head and looked at Lu Xu.

His eyes were full of worry and he couldn't even hide it.

"Lu Xu, are your injuries healed?"

Wen Jiu finally came to his senses and pretended to be relaxed.

She even twitched the corners of her mouth, but the smile was worse than crying.

"It's almost over. What happened to you just now? You're out of your mind."

The corner of Wen Jiu's mouth tightened, "Lu Xu, the sixth princess is going to get married, and she agreed to get married."

Lu Xu was slightly startled. He had already heard his mother talk about this matter.

She also felt sorry for Si Huai'an who lost his mother when he was young and had no one to protect him at this time.

But the marriage was a political matter of the previous dynasty, and she did not dare to discuss it.

Although I tried to persuade him a few times, I was scolded back.

"It may be a good thing to maintain diplomatic relations between the two countries."

"Lu Xu, you and I both know that when the emperor chose the sixth princess to marry, he gave up on the sixth princess."

In the end, Wen Jiu couldn't help but puncture the last piece of almost transparent paper.

"The two countries were at odds with each other and we had no one to use, so we agreed to the enemy's request for peace."

"But if the other party is ambitious, a marriage is just a temporary measure. If our country has enough troops, it will definitely start a war, and we will never think that we have a princess in the other party's hands."

"If they come to ask for marriage next time, will the fifth princess have to marry her again?"

"What about next time? What about next time?"

The more she spoke, the more excited she became: "How is it possible? How can the sixth princess be allowed to get married alone?"

"If Huai'an doesn't make peace at this time, war will begin immediately."

Lu Xu knew everything Wen Jiu thought and said.

There must be a princess to marry, and no one can change this.

Among the princesses of the right age in the palace, except for the sixth princess, there are also five princesses.

The fifth princess was protected by the imperial concubine, who refused to allow the fifth princess to get married.

Even the imperial concubine’s mother’s family begged the emperor for mercy, both soft and hard.

As for the sixth princess, she was raised in the name of the queen in name. The queen did not have a princess on her knees, so she was treated very well.

But after all, she is not her biological child, and if she is her biological child, the Sixth Princess will also be the one who must sacrifice for the sake of the prince's empire.
