The two of them entered the palace with the mood of visiting the grave.
Unexpectedly, it was their second visit to the grave after entering the palace. Their mood became even more gloomy.
Because when they reached the door of the imperial study, they heard things being smashed inside.
"No! I won't marry! Father, I won't marry! "
Hearing this voice …
"Jian Ning?" Wei Ziyao and Ki Chien-chul looked at each other.
She said she wouldn't marry. Could it be … the emperor wants her to marry?
As expected, the Northern Wen Emperor's voice came from inside.
"Jian Ning, don't mess around. You're not young anymore. Think about Ziyao, you're even older than her. She's been married to your sixth brother for more than half a year now. It's time for you to get married. Besides, this is a good marriage."
"A good marriage? How can you say something like that? "Qi Jianning looked at the Northern Wen Emperor in disbelief.
"You don't have to marry far away. Why isn't it a good marriage for you to find a husband at home? Don't tell me you want to be like Wen Wan? Marrying off to a faraway place alone? "
"Father, I've known since I was young that your love for me was just a bargaining chip. You only have one daughter. When you negotiate with other countries in the future, I can be sold for more money. I've known this since I was young. I just didn't expect you to sell me off so soon, and to a hostage!"
Hearing Qi Jianning's heart-wrenching cries, Wei Ziyao frowned.
A hostage … Feng Muyu.
There were so many troublesome things happening today …
"Nonsense! Daughter, as a father, my love for you is genuine. You want to pursue true love, but do you think it's reliable? You've been living in the palace for so long, where can you find true love? You still have to listen to your father's arrangements and get married. Feng Muyu is a good man. The two of you should at least be familiar with each other. It's better than marrying a stranger. "
The confrontation between the father and daughter was more and more frightening.
The most heartless emperor's family.
"But Sixth Brother and Ziyao are in love."
"Then didn't the two of them only discover their true love after they got married? You know how much your sixth brother didn't like Wei Ziyao before you got married. Why don't you think about it? After you and Feng Muyu get married, maybe you'll be as loving as them? "
His Majesty is truly a genius at logic.
"You hate Feng Muyu more than your sixth brother hates Wei Ziyao? If he can accept Wei Ziyao, why can't you accept Feng Muyu? "
Qi Jianning couldn't win against Northern Wen Emperor.
"Alright, you can leave now. I'll get the Imperial Astronomer to calculate the date."
"No! No matter what you say, I won't marry him. I have my own goals, even if I know that I'm just a bargaining chip! "
After saying this, Qi Jianning turned and ran out. When she opened the door, she saw Ki Chien-chul and Wei Ziyao standing not too far away.
She ran forward and rushed into Wei Ziyao's arms to hug her.
"Ziyao, I don't want to marry Feng Muyu."
"I know, good girl." Wei Ziyao patted Qi Jianning's back.
"Go back and have a good sleep first. I'll go talk to Imperial Father."
"Ziyao, I really don't want to marry. I know that I can't control my own marriage, but I'd rather not marry for the rest of my life than marry someone I don't love."
Qi Jianning had already prepared herself to be treated as a commodity and traded away.
But after interacting with Wei Ziyao for a long time, she felt that this wasn't right.
It was better to have nothing than to have something substandard.
It was also because of Wei Ziyao's unintentional words: Life is precious, but love is even more valuable. If it's for freedom, both can be thrown away.
She had been locked up like a canary since birth. Now, she wanted to fight for herself.
Even if the price was her life.
"You go back first, I'll take care of it."
