When the Alluring Queen opened her eyes, all the kings in the world knelt down

There was a moment of embarrassment on Wu's face, and then she sneered: "There are still a few princes in the palace who have not yet gotten married."

Ling Ning said calmly: "I haven't decided yet whether to agree to King Jing's marriage or not. Even if I am the eldest aunt, I should ask King Jing if he is willing to marry the eldest sister. I can't be his master. ”

Wu's tone: "As long as you explain this matter clearly to King Jing, he should agree."

Ling Ning paused slightly, her eyes fell on Wu's face, and the temperature in her eyes dropped to freezing point little by little: "But why should I do this?"

Wu's expression froze.

"Pushing my own marriage away to a ten-year-old concubine who has not yet left the court? Don't you think this request is too much?"

Wu's expression darkened: "Ling Ning——"

"Whether it's for me or King Jing, it's all too much."

Ling Ning didn't like to be sarcastic and submissive, and her words were more in line with the style of a military commander: "I am the legitimate daughter of the Ling family, and the concubine is the concubine of the eldest family. King Jing is a prince with a noble status. How can he be willing to marry a concubine?" female?"

Wu frowned: "Although Shuang'er is a concubine, but she is named in my name, what's the difference between her and a legitimate daughter?"

Ling Ning didn't answer her question: "When King Jing sent 그 to propose marriage, he clearly said 'Ling Ning, the legitimate daughter of the Ling family's room'. The eldest aunt insisted on pushing her daughter out. I don't think it's such a rush idea." Is it too shameful to marry?"

Wu's expression darkened and she looked at Ling Ning with an evil look.

Ling Ning smiled coldly: "If aunt feels that her behavior is appropriate, she can go to discuss it with grandma. Why do you have to come to me to make yourself uncomfortable?"

"Ling Ning, I'm just discussing with you, what's your attitude?" Wu was displeased, "Even if you are the legitimate daughter of the 괗 house, you shouldn't treat your elders like this. You really have no rules at all!"

"If aunt knew the rules, she wouldn't make such a ridiculous request." Ling Ning said, turning and walking towards her yard, "I have something to do and can't chat with aunt any more, so I'll take my leave first."

Wu stood in the distance, watching her leave, her face livid with anger.

What an incompetent thing!

"Girl." Ayun, the personal maid, followed Ling Ning and whispered, "Doctor is used to being domineering. If you talk to her like this today, will she hold a grudge?"

Ling Ning returned to her Ningshuang Courtyard, cleaned her face and hands under the service of the maid, changed into loose clothes, reclined on the soft couch in front of the screen, and then said indifferently:

"If I don't cut off her hope once and for all, she will just pester her day after day, and I won't be too lazy to deal with her."

The maid Ah Wan brought hot tea and nodded: "The girl is right, but the doctor is not someone who gives up easily. Does the girl know how to deal with it?"

What to do?

Ling Ning held the tea cup with an expressionless face, and was thinking about how to solve this matter completely, when she heard the maid outside report: "Girl, the eldest girl is here."

Ling Ning frowned and looked up.

Ayun muttered: "The big girl came very quickly. Did she fly here after practicing Qinggong?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman in light blue clothes walked slowly across the threshold. She had a slender figure, a delicate face, and a well-placed smile on her lips.

It was Ling Shuang, the eldest girl of the Ling family.

"Sister A Ning." Ling Shuang walked like lotus, with a frail figure and a pitiful look on his face. "I heard that my mother came to find you just now. I felt really bad about it, so I came here to talk to you."

Ling Ning maintained her reclining posture and smiled faintly: "Eldest sister also thinks that eldest aunt's request is too much?"

Ling Shuang's expression froze, and then she frowned weakly: "As a daughter, I don't dare to discuss my mother. She is my elder after all."

"Yeah." Ling Ning nodded, "So in your heart you think her request is too much, but you can't accuse her verbally. I understand what you mean."

Ling Shuang's smile condensed: "..."

Ling Ning raised her hand: "Sit down."

Ling Shuang took a deep breath and quickly returned to smiling: "Thank you, sister An Ning."

The maid brought her a pear wood stool and placed it in front of Ling Ning.

Compared to Ling Ning's casual sitting posture, Ling Shuang, who was sitting upright and deliberately assuming an elegant and weak posture, looked much more reserved.

The maid poured her a cup of tea, and Ling Shuang thanked her politely.

She always looked like this in the Ling family. She looked soft and frail, kind-hearted and courteous, and she was particularly fond of 그놋.

However, the women in the deep house are best at pretending. Whether they are really kind-hearted or hypocritical, you can't tell it in a day or two, but you can naturally tell it over time. ŴŴŴ.

"The reason why my mother came to see Sister A Ning is because I am getting older. My mother is worried that I will not be able to find a good marriage in the future, so..."

Ling Shuang glanced at Ling Ning quietly, hesitated for a moment, and a wry smile escaped from the corners of her lips, "My mother has been worrying about my marriage all day long, and I feel bad about it, and I can't stop my mother from loving her daughter. I hope my sister won't worry too much. ”

Ling Ning said calmly: "I don't care too much."

She knows better than anyone what the aunt means, so there is no need to worry about it.

Ling Shuang lowered his eyes and stared at the tea foam floating on the tea surface. His voice was slightly bitter: "But speaking of it, I am indeed older. I don't blame mother for being anxious."

Ling Ning said calmly: "That's because the eldest sister used to always be too high and too low, so she wasted her beautiful years."

Ling Shuang defended softly: "It was my mother who wanted to find a satisfactory marriage for me, but a good marriage is hard to come by. This delay has lasted for ten years."

"Marriage is indeed a big deal and cannot be delayed." Ling Ning said, nodding thoughtfully, "Sister, learn from the past. King Jing and I should settle the marriage as soon as possible."

Ling Shuang's hand holding the teacup tightened, and the overflowing tea splashed on the back of her hand, and a few red spots appeared on the white back of her hand.

Ling Shuang covered her scalded hand with the handkerchief in her hand, and said with a stiff smile: "Sister An Ning has promised King Jing?"

"I haven't thought about it yet." Ling Ning pretended not to see her loss of composure, and her voice was indifferent and calm, "But sister is right, a woman's beauty cannot be wasted. When she is fifteen or sixteen years old, she can still choose others. After seventeen years old, she can only let others choose her."

As the daughter of a military general, Ling Ning certainly would not have such superficial thoughts.

The person sitting in front of her happened to be Ling Shuang.

Since she insisted on a good marriage, and even tried to snatch it from someone else, Ling Ning didn't mind letting her feel bad.

Ling Shuang's smile became more and more stiff, and she couldn't help but clench the handkerchief in her hand, but she still tried to maintain her elegance:

"Sister Ning is right. Now I am a living example, but I feel sorry for my mother worrying about me..."

As she said this, her eyes turned red.

Ling Shuang raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes, "Every day when I see my mother worrying about my marriage, I feel that I am really unfilial and I am ashamed of my mother's love for her daughter."
