Chapter 669 - New Opportunity
Chapter 669: New Opportunity
Bai Zhenzhu couldn’t understand. What new opportunity? What opportunity is he saying?
Seeing her blank expression, Pei Qinghan regretted picking such a useless thing. With such a small brain, how will she achieve anything?
However, now that the matter has come to this. He can only hope for her to grow up as soon as possible.
Pei Qinghan suppressed the anger in his heart, and tried to calm down as much as possible: “Yan’er, you also know that I took you back to marry Prince Jin. I thought it was a very simple thing, but now things are developing more and more different from our expectations. We shouldn’t hang ourselves to a single tree. If the road to success with Prince Jin doesn’t work, we must find another way, and this another way is Prince Xiao.”
Bai Zhenzhu became more and more confused. She had a marriage contract with Prince Jin. So why he wanted her to find another way with Prince Xiao?
Bai Zhenzhu took a glance at Concubine Xiang and then asked Pei Qinghan: “I heard from Madam Xiang that Prince Jin will be the emperor in the future. As long as I marry him, I will be the mother of the mother of the world in the future. But now you are saying to me to marry Prince Xiao, I don’t quite understand what you mean.”
Hearing this, Pei Qinghan immediately frowned and glared at Concubine Xiang in dissatisfaction. He complained that she talked too much.
Concubine Xiang dryly laughed. She hated this Bai Zhenzhu inside her heart. This stupid girl, she dared mention her name?
Pei Qinghan said: “Whether Prince Jin will be the emperor in the future is still unknown. Now, Prince Xiao holds great power in the court. Many ministers support him. If he can get Dongfang Mu’s support, Prince Jin will never sit on the throne.”
Bai Zhenzhu hurriedly said: “Dongfang Mu is Prince Jin’s master. How could he help Prince Xiao instead of Prince Jin?”
Pei Qinghan replied: “You will be the key in this matter. You are Dongfang Mu’s granddaughter. Compared with his only granddaughter, which one is more important?”
Bai Zhenzhu understood, but thinking about Dongfang Mu’s attitude, she was not sure who was more important in Dongfang Mu’s heart.
Suddenly, a lot of resistance was born in Bai Zhenzhu’s heart. She knew it was because of Hu Feng. Hu Feng has always been in her heart. It was her dream to marry Hu Feng.
The panic when saw Hu Feng in Tianyi Pavilion has slowly faded. She became excited instead. But Pei Qinghan poured her cold water, the excitement she felt was extinguished in an instant.
She was full of resistance, but she couldn’t say no. Since the day she decided to leave Huangtuo Village, her destiny has not been in her hands. She has no right to speak in front of Pei Qinghan, which could be said that she had no right to bargain with him.
“I understand!” She nodded obediently and then returned to Lan Courtyard in silence.
When Bai Zhenzhu left, Pei Xiachen, who has been standing behind Concubine Xiang walked out. She squinted her eyes at Bai Zhenzhu, and then said with full of contempt: “Father, can she do it? Look at her, do you think Prince Xiao will like her?”
Pei Qinghan frowned and gave Pei Xiachen a bad look: “No matter how much you look down on her in your heart, you better remember this for me, in front of outsiders, she is your elder sister, the eldest miss of Changyuan Houfu. Put away the contempt on your face, and don’t let people see us as a joke.”
Concubine Xiang hurriedly laughed and said, “Houye, Chen’er has no other meaning. She is just worried that this thing can’t be done and affect our Pei Family.”
