The Emperor's Son-in-Law

"Ah... why is that?"

Duan Chun was stunned.

Duan Chun had understood that the Queen asked him to come to Beiqiu Garden to meet Concubine Jing again.

The purpose was not to let him come to see Princess Xian or send gifts.

But to let Duan Chun listen to Sheng Shuwan's meaning.

The Queen seemed to know everything...

He had asked his father before, can the prince consort become an official after marrying Princess Dakang?

Dad answered very clearly that the prince consort of the Dakang Empire would not be affected in any way.

But now, Sheng Shuwan was reminding herself.

Once he married Princess Xian, Duan Chun could not command the army or enter the upper echelons of the court.

This made Duan Chun cut off too many thoughts.

"Uh, is it because Princess Xian has two royal bloodlines?"

"But she is just a princess after all."

Duan Chun asked doubtfully.

"Child, I can't say more."

"It would be best if His Majesty is willing to tell you."

"If His Majesty doesn't say it, I dare not say a word more."

"Otherwise it will only harm you and Xian'er."

Sheng Shuwan shook her head and said.

"Aunt Wan, this..."

Duan Chun looked at her in surprise, and was now completely confused.

He wanted to ask more, but Sheng Shuwan looked at him helplessly.

The look in her beautiful eyes clearly told Duan Chun that she had said everything she could say.

"Child, if you and Xian'er can protect yourselves one day."

"Don't be afraid of anyone's harm."

"If Aunt Wan is still alive, I will tell you everything."

"But now, this is all I can say."

Sheng Shuwan shook her head helplessly.

Seeing that she was really embarrassed, Duan Chun had to change the question and asked about the current situation of the mother and daughter in Beiqiu Garden.

It was learned that His Majesty had sent someone to take over the guard of Beiqiu Garden.

The meals and expenses delivered every day were also more generous than before.

They even let the mother and daughter walk freely in the three courtyards of Beiqiu Garden.

Even more than a dozen maids and eunuchs were sent to serve.

But Sheng Shuwan refused them all.

"Why do you refuse the maids and eunuchs to serve you?"

Duan Chun asked puzzled.

Such a big courtyard, but not even a servant...

"I just want to live a few more years."

"See that you and Xian'er can live safely."

"But... since you are here today, I will tell you all the situation."

"The right to choose is still in your hands."

"You can go to His Majesty immediately to refuse this marriage."

"Auntie Wan will not blame you."

Sheng Shuwan said lightly.

"I, I understand."

"I will think about this matter carefully after I go back."

"I will give Auntie Wan a clear answer at that time."

Duan Chun nodded, and now he was very confused.

Because from what Sheng Shuwan said, he already felt that if he married Princess Xian.

The subsequent troubles not only cut off his plan to gain more power to protect himself.

Marrying Princess Xian back home is like holding a landmine that could explode at any time!

No one knows what kind of troubles will be encountered?

Fortunately, he is not very familiar with Princess Xian, and His Majesty has not issued the decree of marriage.

It is not too late even if he regrets now.

Duan Chun was speechless in his heart that his father did not understand anything.

He was just a general who did not use his brain and only led troops.

He was just a fierce general who would fight wherever His Majesty pointed.

He even knew nothing about the internal situation of his son's marriage with His Majesty!

"Chun'er, you are a smart person."

"It's all up to you to choose."

"Okay, go see Xian'er."

Sheng Shuwan smiled faintly.

"Junior will take his leave."

Duan Chun stood up and bowed and left the side hall.

But in his heart, he was thinking about the situation mentioned by Sheng Shuwan...

The princess of the previous dynasty and the daughter of His Majesty.

Possessing the royal blood of two dynasties may be the key to this matter.

But Duan Chun couldn't understand, even if the royal blood of two dynasties gathered in Princess Xian alone.

But she was just a princess, not a prince.

What was there to make a fuss about, and what shocked the court and the public?

Walking out of the side hall, I saw the slender back of Princess Xian standing in front of a bush of flowers in the courtyard outside the door.

Hearing Duan Chun's footsteps, Princess Xian turned around.

Her beautiful eyes looked at the young man curiously.

"Greetings, Princess Xian."

Duan Chun walked out of the door and said politely with a fist.

"Duan, Prince Duan."

"Did my mother tell you everything?"

Princess Xian lowered her head and asked shyly.

"I wonder what the princess is asking about?"

Duan Chun asked.

"It's about the marriage arranged by my father."

"My mother told me a long time ago that there are only two people in the world who can marry me."

"One is the prince of General Duan, the Duke of Changguo."

"The other is the prince of Beixia, but my father will not agree."

"As for the prince...my mother said that the prince might not dare to agree to the marriage."

Princess Xian suddenly raised her head, her beautiful eyes staring at Duan Chun's eyes.

As if asking, do you dare to agree to the marriage?

"When did you hear Concubine Jing mention this, Your Highness?"

Duan Chun asked.

"She told me about it last year."

"I said at the time, I didn't want to marry anyone."

"I just want to stay with my mother in Beiqiu Garden."

"Unexpectedly, the crown prince of Chang Kingdom came to Beiqiu Garden."

Princess Xian replied.

"last year……"

Duan Chun was even more shocked.

He did not expect that Concubine Jing, who had been living in the cold palace for a long time, had already thought about what would happen today.

Let me go, it’s scary to think that high-level people are playing politics!

"What's wrong, Your Majesty, do you still dare to marry me now?"

Princess Xian widened her beautiful eyes and asked directly.

"Uh... the parents should make the final decision on the marriage of their children."

"Wei Chen does not dare to make arbitrary decisions."

"Besides, Her Royal Highness the Princess has a distinguished status, so Your Majesty does not speak..."

Duan Chun never expected that Princess Xian looked as quiet as a fairy from the world.

He actually asked him what he meant so directly.

"Forget it, if you don't want to."

"I will find a way to refuse the marriage to my father."

Princess Xian shook her head, turned and left in a hurry...

Seeing Princess Xian rushing towards the side courtyard, Duan Chun was completely speechless.

After standing for a while, he had no choice but to leave the backyard.

"Xian'er, why are you asking him?"

"He has his own thoughts. It's not up to him to decide whether to marry you or not."

"It's a word from your father."

Sheng Shuwan looked at her daughter who walked into the side hall and said softly.

"Aniang, since you asked your daughter to find a way to pass the news to the Queen."

"I want to help my daughter achieve this marriage."

"Why do you want to scare the prince of Changguo again today?"

Princess Xian asked curiously.

"Mom is not scaring him, but preparing him."

"Actually... if the prince of Changguo is granted a marriage by your father."

"Your father's choice is yours alone."

"I'm afraid the other princesses can't do it either."

Sheng Shuwan said lightly.

"But now, he is really scared."

Princess Xian shook her head.
