Chapter 563 Unworthy(1/2)
Chapter 563 Not worthy
As the sun set and turned into dusk, when Qi Ranran went to the side hall again, Liu Wanrou had already woken up.
The palace servants took care of Liu Wanrou, and the maid beside Liu Wanrou went to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine.
After Liu Wanrou saw Qi Ranran, her fragile eyes flashed with gratitude, and she pushed herself up and stood up.
"Thank you so much for saving my life."
"It's okay, you don't need to be polite, just rest." Qi Ranran said truthfully, "Now that I see it, I will help whoever can help."
Let alone Liu Wanrou, even if it were anyone else, he would still save her when it was time to save her.
Liu Wanrou looked at Qi Ranran,
"What are your orders from the Imperial Concubine?"
Qi Ranran got straight to the point,
"I'm here. I really want to ask you something."
Liu Wanrou's eyelashes flickered slightly, waiting for the other party's words.
"I wonder what the imperial concubine wants to ask?"
"Today the Queen Mother mentioned the marriage grant and intends to betroth you to the son of the Chen Hanlin family.
Chen Hanlin was a well-known scholar in Beiyu.
His son Chen Yuanzhi now also serves in the Hanlin Academy,
Speaking of which, this is a good marriage, what do you think?"
Liu Wanrou leaned against the bed weakly, the veins on the back of her hands popped up, and she had already grabbed the brocade quilt on her body. Her whole body became more nervous with Qi Ranran's words. When she finished speaking, her tone was secretly mocking,
"Excuse me for being presumptuous. I don't understand what the noble concubine means.
Could it be that the noble concubine wants my daughter to agree to this marriage?"
Qi Ranran heard the emotion in her words and said bluntly,
"You don't need to be too defensive. I'm just telling you what I know.
As for whether this marriage will happen or not, it depends on your wishes."
Liu Wanrou smiled infatuatedly, but couldn't help coughing lightly.
"Does the Imperial Concubine really think that I have a chance to choose?"
"Yes," Qi Ranran's eyes were calm, "If I hadn't left the choice to you, I wouldn't have come here, and I wouldn't have had to tell you this.
I know that you are pleased with me, my brother,
Therefore, if you don’t want this marriage, I won’t force it.”
After hearing this, Liu Wanrou was stunned for a long time.
"I forgive you for being bold. Is this the intention of the imperial concubine or the Queen Mother?"
Qi Ranran frowned, "You don't need to worry about that, just say whether you are willing or not."
"The Imperial Concubine is here. I am willing to believe that the Imperial Concubine has good intentions.
But the Queen Mother...under the power, how can she really give her subjects a chance to choose?"
Qi Ranran: "You are worrying too much. I am here just to ask you for an idea.
If you don't want to, no one will force you.
I will give you my own reply from the Queen Mother, and you will not be involved."
"really?"
"really."
Liu Wanrou looked at Qi Ranran steadily, word by word,
"My daughter is unwilling."
"Okay, then you should take good care of your health."
After Qi Ranran finished speaking, she was ready to leave, but just as she stood up, Liu Wanrou said,
"Don't you ask me why?"
Qi Ranran stopped.
reason?
Do you still need to ask why?
Isn’t Sima Zhao’s heart known to everyone?
Since Liu Wanrou wanted to test, she might as well speak more clearly.
He turned around, looked at the person leaning on the bed, and said:
"You are so devoted to me, do you know what my brother is thinking?"
Liu Wanrou choked and froze, her face as pale as a pear blossom in spring.
My voice was hoarse, but I couldn't say another word.
The expression on Qi Ranran's face was light, but the words she spoke had weight.
"You said that the Queen Mother's grant of marriage to you was a sign of force.
But how do you know that your persistence is not wishful thinking.
As far as I know, Miss Liu and my brother do not know each other.
But Miss Liu was completely enamored with it.
That being said, please take care of yourself."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Liu Wanrou said urgently,
"The imperial concubine is willing to save my daughter's life, can't she help me?"
After saying this, I couldn't stop coughing.
Qi Ranran stopped, said nothing, and continued walking forward.
After leaving the side hall, Caiyue was angry.
"This slave girl feels that Miss Liu is really a little ignorant."
Qi Ranran was indifferent to this,
"She has her own ideas."
Caiyue doesn’t understand,
"Then why do you have to keep an eye on the second young master?
The second young master didn’t say he liked her either.
Isn’t this a case of stubbornness?
Besides, how many girls in the capital like the second young master?
Is it possible that because he likes them, the second young master wants to marry them all back one by one?
If this is really the case, I'm afraid that even if we build a house, it won't be able to accommodate it."
Qi Ranran glanced at her sideways,
"You talk a lot today."
Caiyue shrugged and stuck out her tongue,
"My slave is telling the truth."
After hearing this, Qi Ranran's shoulders slumped, she took a deep breath, breathed it out slowly, and sighed,
"yes."
Even Caiyue understood something, but Liu Wanrou stubbornly plunged into it, leaving no way out for herself.
If the second brother has feelings for Liu Wanrou, then she will definitely support him.
But she asked her second brother what he meant, and he had no impression of Liu Wanrou at all.
Who knows when Liu Wanrou fell in love with her second brother?
Such a weak body contains such decisive thoughts.
Qi Ranran shook his head and controlled himself.
She tried her best to help wherever she should and could.
As for Liu Wanrou's next move, it all depends on her.
