Chapter 141 God's Will or Human Will
"Girl, girl, guess which lady was chosen?" He Yunyue was feeding fish in the yard when the maid ran over excitedly and said.
"Who?" The news was released in just one day?
"Someone you would never expect?" the maid kept it a secret.
"Unexpected, it can't be me, your girl, right?" He Yunyue said jokingly.
"It's Miss Wang Jundai." The maid said the result.
He Yunyue was surprised for a moment, "Why is it her?"
"That's right, who would have thought that among so many young ladies, she would be the one in the end." The maid was also very surprised.
"Is this fate? There is no way to change the ending. The Crown Princess was like this before, and she is like this now too?" He Yunyue said to herself.
"What are you saying, young lady? I don't understand. What do you mean by fate or ending?" The maid beside her didn't understand a word she said.
"Oh, nothing, I'm just quite surprised. Is the news confirmed?" He Yunyue looked up and asked.
"The Princess of Han went to the palace early in the morning, and then the news came out. There should be no problem."
"Those people who boasted yesterday must have broken a lot of cups at home today, right?" He Yunyue guessed.
Her guess was correct. Many people who received the message today smashed things at home.
Even General He had a gloomy face when he returned home.
"What's wrong with the master? He looks so unhappy. Is he feeling unwell or something happened?" Mrs. He noticed that there was something wrong with the aura around him after he came back.
"Let everyone go down first?"
"Everyone, go down." Madam He obeyed the order, then sat down and asked again: "What happened?"
"Hmph, the King of Han has fooled us all!" General He finally said.
"What do you mean, master?" Mrs. He didn't know how to respond to this nonsensical sentence.
"Madam, do you know which family the final confirmed wife of His Highness Qi is from?"
"Which family? I went there yesterday too. Those who are most powerful are basically those in the officialdom of the master. They are just some of these few." Mrs. He guessed.
"Madam, you were wrong this time. At the beginning, everyone thought that the King of Han would pick someone with a military background this time. Unexpectedly, he finally chose a daughter of a Hanlin scholar." General He became angrier and angrier as he spoke.
Mrs. He also frowned after hearing this. "How is this possible? There were only a few civil servants who went there yesterday. How could she be chosen by chance?"
"Who said it wasn't? This Lord Wang has only recently sided with the King of Han. I didn't expect that His Highness the King of Han would stage such a scene in order to win him over."
"Could this be a coincidence?" Mrs. He guessed.
"You are a woman with a woman's opinion. What do you know? The King of Han's move is also brilliant. In the court, it has always been like this. Most of the civil officials are on the side of the Crown Prince. Most of the military generals have a friendship with His Royal Highness the King of Han during the Jingnan Rebellion. This time they have become relatives with the Wang family. Your Majesty can't say anything wrong. Your Majesty has always supported His Royal Highness the King of Han to suppress the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince's prestige among the civil officials is too high. Your Majesty is always wary of him. Now someone comes to break this situation. It's a good thing for Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty and the Crown Prince are father and son, right?"
"There is no family affection in the royal family, so the Crown Prince and the King of Han are brothers?"
"Oh, no matter who it is in the end, as long as it's not ours." Mrs. He didn't actually care which family was chosen. She didn't know that her own family was even relieved.
"Yun'er is useless because of the way she was brought up by your madam. She has no ambition in anything she does." When General He heard his wife say this, he felt a little angry when he thought about his daughter's lifelong affairs.
"Master, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on me. You usually dote on your daughter, and when she acts a little coquettishly, you forget everything." Madam He was also worried, but there was no such thing as a marriage. It was really depressing.
The two sighed and said nothing.
"Third brother, you just came back?" As soon as He Jue came back, he was blocked by He Yunyue halfway.
"Second sister, why are you here?" He Jue looked around and said.
"It's so obvious that she's waiting for you." He Yunyue said to him with a smile.
He Jue felt a little uneasy when he saw her like this. He wanted to leave but couldn't. "Ah, wait for me. If you have anything to say, just let me know. I will do my best to help you."
"Really? I was waiting for you to say that." He Yunyue pulled him behind a rockery. "It's nothing serious. I just want to ask you something. Just answer truthfully. Got it, brother?" He Yunyue said while patting his shoulder.
"Excuse me, sister."
"Yesterday at the Prince of Han's Mansion, I saw you and someone who looked a bit like you by the lake, and wondered if it was you?" He Yunyue thought for a long time. She and Wang Jundai slipped out together, and then the person was chosen. How could it be such a coincidence? Suddenly, she thought of the man she saw by the lake yesterday. Although she didn't see what he looked like clearly, she had a rough idea of the color of his clothes. After recalling it over and over again, she realized that one of them was wearing the same clothes as her brother yesterday. This was also due to the fact that the man came back in the same carriage with her yesterday. She had seen him all the way and was deeply impressed.
"Second sister, you have good eyesight. I was indeed by the lake yesterday." He Jue did not argue and admitted it generously.
This was unexpected to He Yunyue. After thinking for a while, she asked again, "Who is the other person?"
"Ahem, the other one, do you think it's possible, Second Sister?" He Jue looked at her and asked.
He Yunyue had an answer in her mind, but she had never been sure. Now seeing his expression, she was basically sure, "Is it really Little Prince Qi?"
He Jue didn't say anything, just nodded.
"You were the one who brought him there. I don't understand why you did that. How can you be sure which one is Miss Wang?" He Yunyue now knew the truth, but still didn't understand how it could be such a coincidence?
"I don't know who she is? The order I received was to let His Highness Qi choose someone to be with this sister." He Jue didn't know who the lady next to He Yunyue was at first.
"What do you mean? You're just saying that whoever I pull out will be the candidate?" He Yunyue didn't expect that she would be the one who influenced the entire result. She was the pushing person. If she hadn't pulled Wang Jundai out, she would not have been selected.
"Yes, what sister understood is correct." He Jue nodded in agreement.
"Whose order? Who told you?"
"Sister, can't you guess it? Why did you suddenly go to this party?"
"Yes..." He Yunyue didn't say the next name, but the two of them already understood? "You too?"
"Ah."
Just then, a voice suddenly came from the side: "What are you two doing here?"
"Brother." The two were startled when they heard the voice, turned around immediately, and shouted in unison.
"Brother, you're back so early today." He Yunyue looked up and said with a smile.
"Stop smiling at me. You haven't told me yet. What are you two doing here?" Young Master He Yan asked again.
"Brother, don't be so harsh. He is still my third younger brother. Yesterday he promised to bring me something fun, but just now he said he forgot to buy it for me, and we started arguing. It was clearly his fault, but he still blamed me. Brother, please give me some advice." He Yunyue made up an excuse.
He Jue listened and looked at her, thinking that if that was the case, then he would not be polite, and immediately continued: "I was just too busy to remember. Big brother, you don't know that my second sister was about to beat me up just for such a small matter. Big brother, you have to ask me to make the decision."
"Please stop talking nonsense. When did I hit you?" He Yunyue didn't expect this man to turn the tables on her. Now the two of them were really ready to fight.
"Okay, shut up one by one." He Yan was really annoyed by their quarrels. He first said to He Yunyue, "You are already an adult. You just want to play all day. Be careful or your mother will scold you."
Then he turned to his brother and said, "And you, you're arguing with her over such a small matter."
"Brother, you are biased, obviously..." He Jue wanted to say something.
"Okay, if you quarrel with her and it gets to the point where your parents are in trouble, you'll be in big trouble."
"understood."
He Yunyue looked pleased when she saw her being scolded. He Yan saw her expression and said, "Go back and copy the book and give it to me tomorrow."
"Ah, brother, why are you like this?" He Yunyue never expected this.
"If you want to say it again, just copy it again." After saying that, He Yan left.
He Yunyue naturally didn't say anything.
After He Yan disappeared, He Yunyue said, "Brother, you probably didn't hear anything just now, right?"
"I hope so. If Big Brother really heard it, we'd be finished. But luckily we didn't say anything just now. Why didn't you send someone to keep watch?"
"You're still talking about me, but didn't you see Big Brother either?"
"Okay, let's not say anything to each other. I'm going back."
"Stop, I want to copy the book because of you, how do you deal with this?"
"You made up the reason. I was just cooperating with you. Naturally, it has nothing to do with me." After saying that, He Jue prepared to run away.
He Yunyue grabbed him and said, "Half for each of us, or I will go to my father and complain that you bullied me."
"I'm afraid of you."
"Girl, why are you copying books suddenly?" The maid looked as if she had seen something strange.
"I was punished by my elder brother." He Yunyue said weakly.
He Yunyue thought as she copied, it turned out that besides her, there was someone else in the family who was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's person. If she knew about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's arrangement, she would have pulled out her own young lady, whom she disliked the most. She didn't know if this would harm Wang Jundai. Really, why did she have to do such things?
Later, the young ladies in the capital spread a story that Miss He would not attend banquets easily, and if she suddenly attended, she would have to find an opportunity to talk to her, so that she could climb up the social ladder. Don't disbelieve it, the last one who had a good relationship with her has now entered the palace and become the Crown Prince's Consort. Miss Wang was chosen after she was pulled out by her to talk a few words alone.
After He Yunyue heard about this, she was speechless. What the hell was this? Such a good thing was turned into something else. Then, she decided not to go out easily.
