Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Sun Miaoke heard that her cousin brother would beg the Emperor to marry her, she was both worried and happy.

She felt that she had not misjudged him.

However, when she heard her aunts objection, she was shocked.

She did not expect that her aunt, who had always been kind and amiable to her, would suddenly oppose their marriage.

Mrs. Sun shook her to ensure that Sun Miaoke returned to her senses before saying earnestly, Miaoke, if your aunts att.i.tude is that firm, then you only have one way out, and that is to elope.

However, the consequences of that will be serious.

First, if you escape, youll be considered dead. Youll have to hide your names for the rest of your lives.

If things dont go well in the future, you two might blame and hate each other. In the end, you two will end up miserable.

Second, if you are captured, what awaits you will be death, which will definitely implicate both our families.

Even if the Emperor is merciful and doesnt confiscate our homes, it will still affect the marriage of our clans younger generation.

As for your aunt

Mrs. Sun sighed and said, Dont blame her.

From her point of view, shes only stopping you two from being together for your cousins and the Yan familys futures.

So, in my opinion, you should just cut it off. Cut it off cleanly.

Mother Sun Miaoke threw herself into her mothers arms and cried.

Seeing this, Mrs. Sun could only pat her back to comfort her.

After a while, Sun Miaoke raised her head and said, Didnt Father say there were still two days? 1 will wait for two more days. If there is still no result after that, I will listen to your arrangements.

Mrs. Sun was stunned for a moment. In the end, she nodded and said, You should sleep. No matter what, you have to get your health back first.

Alright. Seeing that her mother didnt object, Sun Miaoke heaved a sigh of relief and lay down.

Mrs. Sun waited for her to fall asleep before leaving the room. She then instructed Qing Tao to take good care of Sun Miaoke before turning around and leaving.

After dinner, Yan Zhiwu went to the study to find Lord Yan.

When Lord Yan saw him enter, he pointed to the stool beside him and finished writing something.

He waited for Yan Zhiwu to sit down and asked, Are you here because of you and Miao Ke?

Did Mother tell you? Yan Zhiwu nodded and asked,

Like I said, my opinion is the same as your mothers.

Why, we Yan Zhiwu had just opened his mouth when Lord Yan raised his hand and interrupted, Your mother already said most of everything, so I wont say anything about the future of you and our family.

I just want to ask you a question. Why do you think the Emperor would bequeath Sun Miaoke to the Third Prince and your sister to the Seventh Prince?

Yan Zhiwu was stunned by the question. He slowly shook his head and asked with a puzzled expression, It cant be. The relations.h.i.+p between the Yan and the Sun families is good, but its not to the extent of wearing the same underwear.

Wrong. Although your uncle is just a scholar, he has a teacher-student relations.h.i.+p with the Seventh Prince. Also, he has cultivated many students over the years.

In addition to your grandfathers position as the commander of the Nine Gates,

Do you think the Emperor would be at ease handing over all these connections to the Seventh Prince?

Father, did someone say something to you? Yan Zhiwu looked at him in shock and asked.

Lord Yan replied unhappily, Although your father was born in the army, I have been in office for more than half my life. Moreover, 1 am one of the Emperors confidants. You dont really think that I am some idiot who doesnt know politics, do you?

He paused momentarily and continued, Go back and study this web of relations.h.i.+ps carefully. The Emperors bestowment of marriage is not without reason.

So you cant marry Sun Miaoke; she can only marry the Third Prince..
