Jiang Ning laughed, “We aren’t the ones who get to make this decision. But, I believe that in this world, there’s no such thing as a perfect marriage. In everyday life, every household has its own set of problems, don’t they?”
“Problems?” Li Yuanyuan didn’t understand.
“Every family has a difficult ‘sutra’ to recite.”
“Every family has a difficult ‘sutra’ to recite…” Li Yuanyuan carefully chewed on these words. Although she had never heard this phrase before, she managed to decipher a myriad of hidden meanings, which left her lost in thoughts for a while.
Jiang Ning said, “I heard that before you started serving the Crown Prince, your family was harmonious, and your life was happy. In general, that’s how it was, isn’t it? But when you’re in it, are there no unspoken difficulties?”
“Of course there were.” Li Yuanyuan smiled faintly, “Which family doesn’t experience both good and bad times, without any worries at all?”
“That’s the point. With Princess Ling’an’s temperament, aside from her parents, who can give in to all her demands?” Jiang Ning sighed, “You know how men are. Even those who married princesses had maids to warm their beds before marriage. After marrying, it’s also not uncommon to see them take concubines and keep mistresses. Do you think there are no conflicts between mother-in-laws and daughter-in-laws, sisters-in-law, husbands and wives, master and their young mistresses, masters and servants? Look at me, I’m constantly at odds with the Empress.”
Upon hearing this, Li Yuanyuan couldn’t help but purse her lips and smile, “Your situation is not the same as those people living outside the palace.”
Which daughter-in-law in the outside world would dare to treat her mother-in-law as harshly?
And also manage to win the other young mistresses over to her side, to fight against their mother-in-law together?
This conversation lightened Li Yuanyuan’s mood considerably. She had a half plateful of pastries before remembering to bring up the crucial matter at hand.
“Has the Princess Consort found a suitable man for Jin Liangyuan?”
“Not yet.”
Those gutsy enough to take the Crown Prince’s woman are quite daring. Those with even a smidgen of ambition and aspiration would never upset the Crown Prince for a woman from Silla.
Even if the Crown Prince were to say he didn’t mind, no one would believe him.
Those lusting for beauty willing to marry Jin Liangyuan either lacks character, or are not in good circumstances. Jiang Ning would rather continue to support Jin Liangyuan than let such a beautiful and well-bred woman like her be ruined.
Li Yuanyuan was also worried about her.
Jin Liangyuan was different from her, she was not a person who could face solitude. To endure the loneliness, staying indoors all day taking meals, and sleeping was unbearable for her.
She had complained several times to Li Yuanyuan, expressing that she felt stifled and uncomfortable.
Seeing that she was about to fall ill from this, Li Yuanyuan decided to discuss this matter with her while the Princess Consort was in the palace.
“What if you take her out for a stroll?” Jiang Ning suggested after thinking for a while.
“Me?” asked Li Yuanyuan, stunned.
“You haven’t been outside since you entered the palace, have you?”
“No, I haven’t.” Li Yuanyuan shook her head, smiling gently, “I don’t mind, and I also don’t enjoy going out. I would be happy to spend my entire life inside the palace, as long as it’s peaceful, there is food to eat, and clothes to wear.”
“But you can’t always stay cooped up. I’ll talk to the Crown Prince and have you two go out for a stroll. However, you’ll need to disguise yourself properly to avoid attracting any unwanted attention.”
“I understand.”
“Then it’s settled. I’ll inform you once I’ve discussed this with the Crown Prince.”
After sending off Li Yuanyuan, Tongxi entered with a business card. It was from the Prince of Wutong. He announced that he had chosen two households for Princess Ling’an as potential Prince consorts and requested the Princess Consort to assist him in reviewing them.
