Lin Xuecha blinked his eyes.
Her fingers interlaced as she said, "Father asked, 'Snow tea doesn't understand, and we love each other. Do we need a reason?'"
"But when you returned to the capital, it should have been only a month. How could you, how could you like your highness?"
"There are even people who fall in love at first sight. Daddy, why don't you say anything about them? Snow tea took a month, and it's been a long time since you've fallen in love with someone."
"You little girl, you're clearly being unreasonable!"
Marquis Anping pursed his lips, his gaze as sharp as a torch landing on her.
"You, what step have you reached? Can you still retract our feelings?"
Lin Xuecha looked at him strangely.
"It's impossible to take back the feelings that we released. Besides, there is no reason why we should take back the tea leaves."
Marquis Anping shook his head slowly.
His tone was slightly sincere.
"Do you know that when we were at the border, I was begging for His Highness. What was the intention of being your teacher's master …?"
Lin Xuecha's eyes held a trace of doubt.
"Why? Could it be that it wasn't to make a person stand by the side of Snow Tea and prevent others from bullying her?"
"Of course not."
Marquis Anping sighed helplessly.
Little girl, your understanding of His Highness definitely isn't any better than your father's. Your father's original intention was to have Your Highness take you in as a disciple, so he wouldn't dare to lay his hands on you as he wished. Even if he did, he wouldn't be able to get His Majesty to grant him a marriage.
Lin Xuecha was completely confused and did not understand.
She frowned deeply.
"But, back then when Your Highness had yet to return to the Capital City, there was an engagement between Snowy Tea and the Fifth Prince. How did Father know, that things would turn out like this?"
Yeah.
Back then, Su Nanxing and her had not yet returned to the capital.
He was far beyond the border.
She was on a distant mountain.
How did father know that Su Nanxing would keep pestering her?!
Marquis Anping's old face changed slightly.
He looked at Lin Xuecha, and was silent for a long time, the corners of his lips moved, as though he wanted to say something.
Finally, he said, "Father, I have seen your portrait in His Highness's tent."
At this time, Lin Xuecha was shocked.
"What …?"
Marquis Anping did not want to talk about this matter.
He changed the topic and spoke to Lin Xuecha.
"All the men in Capital City can be your husband, and only the crown prince and Prince Jing Ran can't be your husband. Little girl, you have to listen to father and take advantage of the opportunity to help him get rid of him, okay?"
Lin Xuecha finally understood what Su Nanxing meant when he saw her back home.
He had already known that this situation would occur …
However …
Why?
There had to be someone to answer her question.
These two men were the most important things in her life.
She was stuck in the middle for some unknown reason, so she naturally wouldn't feel good.
"Not good. "Why doesn't Daddy agree with Snow Tea? With Your Highness here, Crown Prince Snow Tea doesn't want to ask too many questions, but, Your Highness, you must know the reason why. If you don't want to tell the truth, Snow Tea will not agree."
Marquis Anping had always pampered Lin Xuecha.
Back when Leng Hualan still hadn't passed away, he had often carried her and taught her to read and to enjoy the bliss of heaven.
Now that Lin Xuecha had grown up and lost his mother long ago, he was sent to live in a nunnery for ten years.
He felt so bad that he didn't want it anymore.
Since Lin Xuecha didn't agree, he lowered his eyes and started pondering, thinking about whether or not he should tell her.
Seeing that the Marquis Anping was not replying for a long time, Lin Xuecha couldn't help but to guess.
Then, she cautiously asked, "Can, when we were at the border, there were some conflicts between father and your highness that weren't resolved properly, so …"
That was why he rejected Su Nanxing so much and became his son-in-law?!
Otherwise, she really couldn't think of any mistake with Su Nanxing to be his son-in-law.
Marquis Anping shook his head.
When he and Su Nanxing were at the border, they got along extremely well.
When they attacked the invaders at the border, the two of them had a tacit understanding.
His way of thinking could often be taken together with his.
There were even times when the strategy and strategy that Su Nanxing proposed were far better than his.
He was a fully deserving child prodigy.
However, there were some who could only be partners. They could be close friends and friends, but they could never become their own son-in-law.
Not that he was in a bad mood.
However, the facts had proven too much.
With Su Nanxing's nimble thinking and planning, he shouldn't have been able to spend his life with his most pampered daughter.
Sooner or later, his daughter would become his bargaining chip.
He looked at Lin Xuecha, "Girl, it's not that your highness isn't good, rather, it's the opposite. Your highness is your father, a genius who is extremely appreciative of you, but he...
Just listen to father's words of advice and don't marry him. He isn't a man you can control, understand? "
He shook his head and so did Lin Xuecha.
Snow Tea respects Father's thoughts, but as long as Your Highness hasn't thought of abandoning Snow Tea, it's impossible for Snow Tea to do so.
Was it possible that every girl would initially be obsessed with love?
Marquis Anping was a little dazed.
Back then, Hualan had also knelt at the feet of the current Madame and solemnly vowed.
She would definitely not marry that person …
But in the end, she still married him.
And he had fallen in love with her.
"Don't be in such a rush to come to a conclusion, your path has just started, and has a long life. You will encounter many difficult and dangerous things along the way, and you won't know, and, no matter what you say, your father will not agree. You and Your Highness are going to get married, and tonight, your father will request for orders from the Emperor, and your marriage will be annulled."
Lin Xuecha's heart became anxious, and she suppressed her impulse to fly into a rage.
He talked to Marquis Anping rationally, "Father, the Emperor said long ago that you can choose your own husband for this snow tea. Unless you let go of this snow tea, you don't have any stance, you can help this snow tea to end this marriage."
Marquis Anping's face instantly turned ugly.
Lin Xuecha said before he could get angry, "Daddy, can you talk to Xue Cha about it first? Whether it is because Your Highness offended father by accident or by accident, my daughter must have asked him to change it. Daddy, please don't make things difficult for us, okay?"
"He won't live to be a weakling."
Marquis Anping's face sank.
"One day, he will abandon you. This is the reason why your father doesn't like him being your husband."
Lin Xuecha choked.
He was actually at a loss for words.
Just think of the hearts of all the parents in the world. How could they possibly be willing to love their treasured daughter and lose their husband the moment they marry?
Of course not.
Su Nanxing still hadn't passed the year of the Weak Crown, so no one could say for sure.
But, the marriage between her and Su Nanxing, was set for the early winter.
In other words, if the prophecy was true, she and he could at most be husband and wife for three months.
However, compared to a lifetime, what was three months?
Father, this is the thought …
Lin Xuecha raised his eyes and looked at Marquis Anping, his deep black eyes staring fixedly at him.
"If Father worries about this matter, Snowy will definitely break the prophecy. Your Highness, you will definitely live to a hundred years of age. Please try to believe in Snowy's ability, okay?"
After saying these words, the only thing that greeted Lin Xuecha was an angry shout that made Marquis Anping disappointed.
After that, she was punished by the Marquis Anping in a small house and had to face the wall to think.
Lin Xuecha did not know what he should think about in front of the wall.
She didn't think that she had done anything wrong.
He also did not take Marquis Anping's scolding to heart.
However, he vaguely felt that this matter was rather difficult to deal with.
She sat on the cushion and rubbed her glabella in annoyance.
He started to guess what was going on between Su Nanxing and Marquis Anping.
An unknown amount of time passed.
Lin Xuecha slept soundly in the small house. During this period, other than Ting Zhu who brought her lunch, there was no one else who had come here.
Until the night fell, the Marquis Anping sent someone to call Lin Xuecha out.
It was for the palace feast.
Lin Xuecha was very clear that right now, the Marquis Anping was still angry at her.
He felt a bit sad.
He had only just returned to the Capital City and it hadn't even been a day yet, but he had already made her think about it inside the house.
However, she still respected her father.
Because the Marquis Anping had returned to the capital, Zi Hui packed her clothes and returned to the Marquis Anping Palace.
When Marquis Anping saw Zi Hui, his eyes was deep.
Glancing at Lin Xuecha, he pursed his lips and did not say a word.
There were not many people who entered the palace, so all of the concubines had no share.
Marquis Anping had no son, only Lin Xuecha and Lin Xueyu's two daughters.
He didn't seem to be worried.
In this era where he valued sons and daughters, he could actually accept the idea of having no children. It was truly not easy.
Of course, there was also the possibility that he liked Lin Xuecha's mother too much.
Therefore, he didn't want to get involved with other women.
Lin Xuecha was dressed in a light pink palace attire as he sat together with Lin Xueyu.
However, at the celebratory feast, the old emperor did not let all of the civil and military officials come.
He only called a few of the Elders in the middle court over to toast a few cups of water for the Marquis Anping.
There were places where the family members sat, places where the royal family members sat, and places where the royal family members sat.
Lin Xuecha looked towards the royal family.
Su Nanxing's eyes were lowered, listening to the ministers and Marquis Anping speak.
Seeming to have noticed her gaze, he slowly raised his eyes.
He looked in her direction.
The corner of Lin Xuecha's mouth revealed a hint of a smile, and the man also smiled back at him.
maids from the palace came over to refill their tea, just as Lin Xuecha was about to take it.
One of the Nanny s looked like an old maid. Seeing her appearance, his hand trembled and the tea in his hand spilled quite a bit.
She knelt down in fear and trepidation, begging for mercy immediately.
"Princess Yuexi, have mercy, Princess Yuexi has mercy, this old servant did not do it on purpose, please forgive me."
Lin Xuecha glanced at her.
"Don't worry, get up."
Only then did the Nanny stand up.
Lin Xuecha saw with his sharp eyes that Old Nanny's face was completely pale.
She pursed her lips helplessly.
Her reputation was not that great, but it was not that exaggerated either. If she spilled some tea, she would end up dying.
She thought she was kind.
Alright …
She pretended she didn't say the latter part.
