Chapter 211

Chen Miao blinked her eyes, and asked a little puzzled: "Mother, where did you start talking? Ah Jing's official job is good, why can't you do it again?"

Lu was a little anxious, but didn't know how to speak.After struggling for a long time, he reluctantly said: "Silly boy, it's not like you don't know the stupid things Jinger did back then. What is the identity of the crown prince? Maybe there is room for sand in his eyes? If he knows that his crown prince concubine once had a relationship with Jing'er If Er has something to do with it, wouldn’t it implicate Jing Er? Rather than being implicated again at that time, it would be better for Jing Er to resign from office and learn to do business with his uncle."

Chen Miao smiled lightly, it turned out that her mother-in-law was worried about this matter.She has also dealt with Xiao Yexuan several times, she knows that this person is not as jovial as he appears on the surface, he seems to have no city.

As a member of the royal family, how can he be a person who has no plans to get all the way to his position?I'm afraid that Bai Lin's thoughts have already been seen through by him.But since he didn't say anything and still took good care of Pei Jing, he probably wouldn't make a fuss about this matter.

What's more, the royal family is extremely face-saving. As the current prince, he will not do anything that will damage his prestige before he ascends the throne.What's more, Pei Jing once said cryptically to her that the crown prince intends to win him over, so Pei Jing's safety should not be a problem in a short period of time.

Chen Miao thought for a while, even if she told Lu Shi about some things, she might not understand them, but would worry her even more, so she said with a smile: "Mother, Ah Jing is now a captain of the fifth rank, what should I do? He will have his own ideas on how to do it, and I will tell him what you mean, so that he can be careful. But as for whether to resign, let him make up his own mind."

After thinking for a long time, Mrs. Lu sighed softly: "Forget it, he has grown up now, and I can't control him anymore. What's more, he is a fifth-rank official who was earned with his life. It's so easy He changed his mind and came out on top, I can't ruin his future."

Chen Miao comforted: "Mother, don't worry, Ah Jing is smart, and he is very measured in doing things, so he won't get into trouble."

Mrs. Lu nodded lightly, and was about to say something, when she suddenly heard light footsteps coming from outside the door, as if she had reached the door but was about to retreat.

She frowned slightly, and suddenly raised her voice, "Yue'er, is that you?"

There was a sudden pause in the footsteps outside the door, and they paused at the door for a while before pushing the door open and coming in.

It really was Pei Yue.

Pei Yue probably also came to pay her respects to Mrs. Lu, but her expression was a little abnormal, unlike the usual ones who talked and laughed as soon as they entered the door, instead they lowered their heads and did not speak.

Surprised and puzzled, Lu took Pei Yue's hand and asked her to come to him, and asked strangely, "What's wrong with you, Yue'er?"

Chen Miao also asked suspiciously: "Yue'er, did you want to come in just now? Why did you want to leave again?"

Pei Yue pursed her lips, lowered her brows and eyes, and did not speak. Lu suddenly became anxious, "Why didn't you speak, this child? Who bullied you?"

But the men in Pei's family are not at home, apart from Aunt Tian, ​​Nanny Yue and Juan'er, there is only Ahman, a half-old child left, who will make her angry?
Pei Yue shook her head, and suddenly said: "Mother, I won't marry the prince, I don't like him."

Lu was shocked, "You heard what I said to your sister-in-law just now?"

Pei Yue nodded: "Yes."

Lu asked again: "How much have you heard?"

Pei Yue said calmly, "All of them."

Lu Shi and Chen Miao exchanged glances, a little worried.

Chen Miao thought for a while before she said to Pei Yue: "Yue'er, I will let you know about this matter sooner or later, but I didn't plan to tell you so early because I was also hesitant. Since you came back from the palace, Both inside and outside of the words reveal the meaning of not wanting to enter the palace, so I am also thinking about how to deal with this matter."

Pei Yue said softly: "Sister-in-law, I know that Defei is very kind to me, and I am very grateful, but being grateful to her does not mean that I want to marry her son. The prince is very good, but the prince doesn't like me. I don’t like the prince, and I don’t even like being a princess.”

Mrs. Lu glared at her: "How old are you? If you like it or not, are you ashamed?"

Pei Yue pouted her lips and said, "Do you also know that I'm only 14 years old? But aren't we discussing my life now?"

Lu Shi was choked by her, and stretched out his finger to touch her forehead hard: "Damn girl, what kind of girl do you want?"

Pei Yue's cheeks flushed slightly for some reason, but she said on her mouth: "Anyway, I don't want to marry those rich and famous families, royal family and nobles. I think that in the future, I will be like sister-in-law and elder brother, living their lives in a normal way, and being a couple for the rest of my life. it is good."

Lu sighed, "It's easy to say, how can it be so simple. At the beginning, I gave your father a death order not to allow concubines. Your father is an honest man, so he has guarded me safely for so many years. Live your life. Your elder brother's character is just like your father's. Although he is a young man, he is emotionally resigned, so he can be devoted to your sister-in-law. Although I once said that the Pei family does not allow concubines, but I look around, you Of these two elder brothers, only your elder brother can hold on to this sentence. Your second elder brother just hasn't made it through yet. I'm afraid that three wives and four concubines will be indispensable!"

Pei Yue remained silent.

Lu stroked her forehead lovingly, and said softly: "In the past, we were just ordinary peasants. It's okay to be poor. If you marry a farmer, you may really live a monogamous life in peace. But now your brother You are a military officer of the fifth rank. I am afraid that this official position will be promoted again in the future. You have such a good looks and character, how can you say that mother will marry you to an ordinary farmer? But looking around, even if you don’t marry Xiang Wang, I'm afraid that anyone who can match you is either rich or noble. But how many of these aristocratic princes don't take concubines?"

Pei Yue's face was mournful, but she tried her best not to cry, and said firmly: "Mother, if you really can't find such a man, then my daughter would rather be alone for the rest of her life."

Mrs. Lu sighed and remained silent, Chen Miao saw that the atmosphere was too heavy, she hurriedly smoothed things over and said: "Don't think too much, Empress Defei didn't press on this matter, she just said to wait for Yue'er and Ji to talk about it later. It's only May now, and Yue'er's birthday is still in February next year, and there is still more than half a year to consider slowly. And Prince Xiang also told me that he will not force Yue'er, if Yue'er disagrees , he will go and explain clearly to Empress Defei in person, presumably Empress Defei will not be too embarrassing for Yueer."

Seeing that Chen Miao said so, Lu Shi finally had a long time to buffer, and finally felt better.Holding Chen Miao with her left hand and her daughter Pei Yue with her right hand, she stood up together, and said softly, "Okay, don't think about it so much, go have breakfast with me."
