Chapter 1081: Promise to Divorce
Bai Liyu knew that Aunt Su must be weighing the powerful relationship at this time, if Yanran married to Shangshu Mansion, would she regret it in the future. Although she had harmed Bailichen, if His Royal Highness the Hades King inherited the throne, as Yu'er said, Bailichen would definitely be added to the ranks. At that time, what kind of thing is his Shangshu Mansion, how can it be compared with the Baili family? At that time, even if Yanran married into the prime minister's family, it would be more than enough, so why should she marry the second son of Shangshufu?
It seems that this Lord Shangshu also didn't look down on their Baili family.
Bai Liyu saw that Aunt Su had already made up her mind, so she stepped up her strength and said, "Mother, although my son is still young, he also understands some truths. I don't think this Lord Shangshu can afford to look down on the Baili family at all. Think about it, if he values the Baili family, how can he let Yanran marry the second son of their family? ”
Bai Liyu's words are in the arms of Aunt Su. Aunt Su's heart immediately felt dissatisfied with Shangshufu, so she said to Baili Yu: "Thanks to Yu'er, otherwise my mother would still be kept in the dark by Lord Shangshu." But Yu'er, even if your father has always supported His Highness Hades, how did I hear that His Highness Hades doesn't seem to be interested in the throne? ”
Aunt Su was still a little worried, so she wanted to figure it out.
"Mother, my son is very close to my eldest brother, in fact, it is for the future of the Baili family. In fact, I don't say that you also understand in your heart that the eldest brother is very cold to you and your father. If I am not close to my eldest brother, if my eldest brother is really in power in the future, where will there be the glory of the Baili family? I think with the character of the eldest brother, I am afraid that he will move out and live alone, and he will not be involved with the Baili family. But thinking about it differently now, he is willing to open his heart to me and tell me what is in his heart, which also shows that he still has a hundred miles in his heart. At that time, Yanran is the daughter of the Baili family, and I think the threshold of the Baili family will definitely be broken. Bai Liyu said with a smile.
Aunt Su naturally understands the truth of this, Baili Yu is right, the Baili family itself is a family of Nanzhao Kingdom, if Baili Chen can really tilt the power of the government and the opposition, then the reputation and status of the Baili family will naturally rise. At that time, I'm afraid there will be more people to marry Yanran, right?
"My son is right." Aunt Su is obviously very tempted.
"Mother, think about it, which family dared to let the second son marry Yanran when they came to ask for marriage?" Bai Liyu said.
Of course, Aunt Su also knew that if Yanran married at that time, she would be the one who would be the housewife. Bai Liyu is right, now Lord Shangshu looks down on their family, but at that time, she still doesn't look down on Lord Shangshu's family.
"I see, what a good boy. When your father returns, I will consult with him. It's just that Yanran is already in love with the second son, how should this be? I don't think it's as good as this, Yanran is the only concubine of the Baili family, and if His Royal Highness the Hades King inherits the throne, there will naturally not be only one woman in the palace. Yu'er, you are really a good boy of your mother. How can we marry the children of officials, if we want to marry, I think it is most suitable to send her to the palace. In the future, if she becomes a noble concubine and gives birth to a boy and a half girl for His Royal Highness the Hades, I am afraid that the queen will be replaced. The more Aunt Su talked, the more exaggerated she became, and it seemed that she didn't want to stop at all.
"Mother, it's good to know some things in your heart, so why bother saying them?" Bai Liyu said softly.
"Yu'er is still cautious, no wonder your father said you grew up." Aunt Su said.
"Now that the mother understands her son's intentions, the son withdraws." Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Baili Yu prepared to leave the main courtyard.
"Yu'er, you and I haven't said so many things in a long time. Mother actually has a lot to ask you, I don't know ...... you" Aunt Su's words were not finished.
Bai Liyu lost his patience when he heard this, and said, "Mother, I know what you want to ask. There is only one thing my son wants to say to you, and that is to do nothing if you don't know. The mother asked to take care, and the son took leave. ”
After Bai Liyu finished speaking, he left the house without looking back.
Aunt Su in the room frowned and looked at Bai Liyu who left, and there were some doubts in her heart. Could it be that what she was most worried about was discovered by Bai Liyu? She shouldn't have been discovered, because she's been paying attention for so many years. Even the master didn't find out, how did Bai Liyu find out?
But if you don't find out, what does Bai Liyu mean by what he just said?
Aunt Su looked at the maidservant beside her, and then asked, "What did Yu'er mean by what she just said?" ”
The maid hurriedly shook her head and said, "Madam, the slave doesn't know what the young master meant. ”
A cold light flashed in Aunt Su's eyes, and what Bai Liyu just said kept ringing in her ears. What she was most worried about was that Bai Liyu knew this secret, because she didn't want this son to look down on her. Moreover, if this matter is known to others, then Yanran will really not be able to see people in the future.
Of course, she knew that if the master learned about this, he would probably pick her skin too.
"Say, does he know something?" Aunt Su frowned and muttered.
"Madam, don't you know the young master's temperament? He is a person who can't hide his thoughts, if Tang Rururu really knows about this, how can he not help but ask you? Especially the matter he analyzed just now, if he really doubts you, how can he specially discuss the matter of the young lady's marriage with you? The maidservant said respectfully.
"Isn't what Yu'er said just now referring to this matter?" Aunt Su asked suspiciously.
After Aunt Su listened to the maid's words, she was also skeptical. If Bai Liyu didn't say this, then what would it be? Wait, are you talking about finding a killer to assassinate Bailichen?
"The slave maid thinks, if the young master heard about this, how could he endure it for so many years without asking you? This shows that the young master doesn't know about this at all. Madam, you must care too much about the young master's opinion, that's why you think so. The maidservant thought for a moment and said.
Aunt Su nodded, she was still a little uneasy, and she always felt that things were not as simple as she imagined. Because she knew how serious this matter would be if she let the master know. Once known, she will be left with nothing.
"No matter what, there is some truth in what Yu'er said." Aunt Su said.
She planned to discuss with Bai Lichen's father and withdraw from Yanran's marriage first. If His Royal Highness the Hades King can inherit the throne, what will she do if she marries her daughter to Shangshu Mansion?
Sure enough, in the afternoon, Bai Lichen's father returned to the main courtyard. Aunt Su gave the maid beside her a look, and after the maid poured a cup of tea for Bai Lichen's father, she pulled the maid aside and withdrew.
"Master, the concubine has something to discuss with you." Aunt Su said with a smile.
"What's the matter?" Bai Lichen's father asked.
"Naturally, it's about Yanran's marriage. The concubine felt that Lord Shangshu was not sincere in marrying our Baili family at all, otherwise how could she let Yanran marry the second son? Aunt Su said.
"Isn't it a family affair that Yanran and their youngest son are in love with each other?" Bai Lichen's father asked.
"Actually, it's not a mutual relationship, Yanran is still young, so naturally she doesn't understand anything. Master, the concubine always goes to Shangshu Mansion as a guest these days, and feels that Lord Shangshu is not sincere. The concubine naturally knew why he wanted to marry the Baili family, it was nothing more than because of Chen'er's relationship. But have you ever thought about it, if Chen'er is really an official and a knight, then why do we Yanran still marry his son. If His Royal Highness Hades inherits the throne, the queen will not be the only one in the harem. With Chen'er's merits, isn't it easy to send Yanran to the palace? Aunt Su said with a smile.
"Nonsense, how dare you say these things. His Royal Highness the Hades King once swore that he would marry Murong Xi as a princess, how could he not speak a word? Besides, the princess is still the princess of Linfeng Kingdom, if His Royal Highness the Hades King rebels, will Linfeng Kingdom sit still? Bai Lichen's father said.
"Sir, what you said is right. However, when His Royal Highness Hades swore an oath, he definitely did not think that he would be able to inherit the throne. He promised to marry only one princess, Murong Xi, but he didn't say that the harem couldn't add people. Aunt Su said leisurely.
Bai Lichen's father was itchy by Aunt Su's words, His Royal Highness the Hades King has become the emperor, so this daughter of his may be a concubine in the future. Aunt Su is right, Murong Xi cannot be the only one in the palace, and she will definitely choose a concubine to enter the palace in the future.
"But, how should Shangshu-sama explain it?" Bai Lichen's father asked.
"Master, I don't think there's anything to explain, after all, Lord Shangshu can't afford us at all. Besides, he hasn't been here once, and I don't know if he dislikes the Baili family. Moreover, Master Shangshu is a smiling tiger, and he must be taking advantage of us. He was so smart, how could he not have thought of what would happen after His Royal Highness Hades succeeded to the throne? Now that I think about it, I'm afraid he is just trying to climb hundreds of miles. Aunt Su continued.
Bai Lichen's father thought for a moment before he spoke: "Well, this Lord Shangshu really doesn't have any good intentions, I'm just a little worried about His Royal Highness the Hades." ”
"Are you still worried that His Highness the Immortal King will not succeed to the throne?" Aunt Su asked cautiously.
"Hmm. His Royal Highness Hades is very stubborn, he has made a decision, and I dare not say anything more. The old man said.
"Yu'er came over today, and he told me a lot, of course, Chen'er told him. After listening to this, I think that His Royal Highness the Hades King will not give up the throne. Aunt Su said.
"For the sake of a woman, naturally it's not worth it. It would be great if he could figure it out. Otherwise, it would be a waste of my efforts. Bai Lichen's father said.
"Master, you think about Yanran, if Yanran marries into Shangshu Mansion, she will only be mediocre for the rest of her life. However, if she enters the palace and becomes a concubine. In the future, if she gives birth to a boy and a half girl for His Majesty, won't she fly on the branches and become a phoenix? Aunt Su continued.
The old man felt that what Aunt Su said was right, as long as his daughter gave birth to a baby boy, it was still unknown who would be able to inherit the throne in the future. Therefore, Yanran entering the palace is the best choice.
"You're right, I'll go and make it clear to Master Shangshu when the time comes. You first reveal it to Yanran and see what she means. Bai Lichen's father said.
"Yes, sir." Aunt Su's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning, and she knew that her goal had been achieved.
"By the way, why did Yu'er get here today?" Bai Lichen's father asked curiously.
Because he knew that Bai Liyu had never been close to Aunt Su, let alone come to visit Aunt Su.
