Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage - Chapter 530:
Chapter 530: Chapter 530: Concubine-born Daughter Marries Concubine-born Son
Jiang Yi said this, not with sarcasm or any other intentions.
He was very serious about it.
To almost everyone’s eyes, eunuchs are not considered men.
Even including the eunuchs themselves.
As people’s thoughts are influenced by their environments, Jiang Ning didn’t find his natural assumption strange at all.
“Eunuchs are not men, so are they women? Their bodies may be incomplete, but their hearts are whole, and they have human emotions.” Jiang Ning shook her head, “I’m not trying to argue with you on this matter now, what I’m saying is, besides the Emperor, the Princes, and the eunuchs, there are also many Imperial Guards coming and going in the harem. They are normal men. Is it possible that Denghua has had dealings with one of them?”
Jiang Yi let out a sound, as if suddenly realizing something.
He stood up and said, “How could I forget such an important thing? I’m afraid father didn’t think of it either. Thankfully, my little sister reminded me, I will go back and discuss with father right away.”
“Brother!”
Jiang Ning held onto him, “I have one more thing to say to you.”
“What is it?”
“The current situation is different from the past. The Emperor is deeply distressed by the death of the noble concubine and has not attended to state affairs for many days. It is hard to say whether there will be a significant change in a short period of time.”
“Shh.” Jiang Yi hurriedly lowered his voice, “My dear, this is the palace, with many ears around, don’t speak so loudly.”
“This is my residence, and Gucheng is guarding outside, no one can get near.”
“Don’t rely too much on Gucheng.”
“Gucheng was given to me by Uncle, why can’t I rely on him?” Jiang Ning wondered.
“I mean, it’s always unreliable to entrust your safety to others. Over-relying on others will make you lose some of your ability to protect yourself.”
Jiang Ning smiled, “I understand, I will learn self-protection skills and try to rely less on others.”
Jiang Yi looked at his sister’s brilliant smile, patted her head, and laughed, “As for your family, you can trust and rely on them wholeheartedly.”
“Hmm!”
Jiang Ning nodded vigorously, “I know that only father, mother, and Third Brother are the best to me in this world.”
Jiang Yi laughed, “Speaking of which, Jiang Yuan’s marriage also has some prospects.”
“Really, who caught her eye?”
“Eldest son of the Liu Shilang family, although concubine-born.” Jiang Yi said, “He is the eldest son, and there is a possibility of inheriting the family business in the future.”
“It’s rare for Jiang Fifth Daughter, who is so proud and arrogant, to settle for a concubine-born son.”
“Originally, she was unwilling, but after meeting him, he indeed has an outstanding appearance and character, and she herself is a concubine-born daughter, so even if she looked further, there wouldn’t be a better match. In the end, she agreed.”
“Has a date been set?”
“It is still under discussion, considering the noble concubine died less than three months ago, this marriage must be postponed to avoid upsetting the Emperor.”
The Emperor was grieving for the loss of the noble concubine, and if the Jiang family were to celebrate their daughter’s marriage with noise and excitement, wouldn’t this deliberately provoke the Emperor’s anger.
At this point, it is necessary to keep a low profile.
Jiang Ning agreed, “Third Brother, when you go back, you must talk to father and uncle, our family is eye-catching enough as it is, we must keep a low profile, even more so, we should give up some power voluntarily.”
Jiang Yi laughed, “I know your concerns, rest assured, father and uncle are both well aware of this.” He lowered his voice, “Every dynasty has its ministers, and when father initially arranged for your marriage with the Crown Prince, didn’t he have this consideration as well?”
