C129 (2/2)

Sun Jinbo was not stupid. Under the Zhong's's clear hints, he had already thought it through: ”I believe all the rumors back then weren't all groundless rumors. Meng Er, didn't you also see it once?”

Sun Jinzi nodded her head: ”Indeed, I have a feeling that something is different between them.”

”It just so happens that since one of them is in love and the other is interested, I think it's really appropriate.” Zhong's laughed.

”But, the Emperor clearly wants the direct daughter, and we only have Meng Er as the direct descendant, if the concubinage marries him, wouldn't that mean that she won't obey the decree?” If this decree was okay, then the crime would be huge. Sun Jinbo did not think that this matter was worth such a risk.

”So what if there is one more direct daughter?” Zhong's clenched her teeth, she was clutching her chest, her heart still aching.

She had been vying for the title of a teacher for most of her life, and it had taken her most of her life as well. She would never be able to recover from such a feeling.

”Mother is saying that we should let Second Sister be our direct daughter?” Sun Jinbo was a little confused. He never thought that his mother would actually be smarter than before, instead, she only stared at the backyard and drilled as hard as she could. She was even willing to give up on such short term benefits to have a long-term vision, looking at things so far ahead.

”No, we can't let that bitch off so easily.” Sun Jinmeng was extremely excited. She did not agree, and she did not permit it.

Originally, she could not even compare to Sun Jinzi. If she were to once again become a direct daughter, then the two of them would be on equal footing. Standing in front of Sun Jinzi, she did not even have a little advantage anymore.

”No, no, I also know that I can't do it. But, if this isn't possible, then you must marry into the Sixth Prince's Estate.”

If she were to be married, not only would she have to sacrifice a daughter, she would also have to take a huge risk and be tied to the fate of Sixth Prince, who would soon completely lose his beloved.

”I don't want to …” Having lost the protection of the Empress's biological mother, no matter how handsome Sixth Prince he looked, he did not have the slightest ability to attract Sun Jinmeng. On the contrary, those eyes that were always as cold as the stars on his face looked at Zhen Zhen in a rather scary way.

”Meng Er, you must know, this is the world. To be willing is worth it. Not only did she want to seize the identity of the only direct daughter, she also wanted to get rid of the Sixth Prince and the marriage decree.

Sun Jinbo's words were well understood by Zhong's, and she immediately tried to persuade Sun Jinmeng.

The mother and son took turns to persuade Sun Jinmeng, and only after a long while did they manage to persuade him.

In the end, it was still the Zhong's who agreed to Sun Jinmeng's request, and made things difficult for Sun Jinzi in the future.

At this time, Sun Fuping was not at peace within the study room. He was thinking about the situation in the imperial court today and the mysterious smile that the Fourth Prince revealed to him when he was about to leave the palace.

Everyone knew that the Fourth Prince was the most amiable and amiable of the princes.

In reality, the Fourth Prince is not a very easy person to get along with. Sometimes, no matter what you do, you might not be able to find what he wants. He couldn't enter his heart.

”Old master, what do you intend to do with this matter?” Housekeeper Liu Bing saw that Sun Fuping had been lying on the Red Wood Desk and reading the documents in his hands, but an hour had passed and the documents had still not been opened, so he could not help but ask.

”What else can I do? I can only obey the decree.” bestowing marriage was His Majesty the Emperor's intention. He was the monarch, he was the subject, what else could he do?

”I'm afraid Madam and Third Miss are not willing.”

The Zhong's and Sun Jinmeng's performance was very outstanding. Almost everyone in the Sun Mansion could see that they were not very satisfied with this arranged marriage.

Of course, maybe they had agreed to it before, but as the situation got more difficult for the Sixth Prince, they began to have more opinions. Liu Bing was extremely clear about what the two of them were thinking.

”They have no choice …” Sun Fuping clenched his teeth, his expression fierce, who could understand how painful it was.

How could he be willing to let such an achievement that he had spent half his life struggling to achieve be ruined just because of this arranged marriage between him and the prince?

Originally, this had been a great thing. The marriage with a prince was supposed to go up a level, but unfortunately, was it because of bad luck or was it because the heavens were blind?

”Old master, this matter might not be without a turning point, so there's no need to be too disheartened.” Liu Bing did not expect that this matter would have such a huge impact on Sun Fuping, and he could not help but regret bringing up this matter at such a time and place.

Sun Fuping raised her hand to stop him, ”Forget it, you can leave. He doesn't want to talk about anything right now.”

”Master …” Liu Bing, however, was not done speaking.

”Actually, there isn't just one Third Miss in our residence.” Then there was the young miss and the Third Miss. Any one of them would be smarter than the Third Miss.

Sun Fuping, the father was in the game so he couldn't see through the plan, but Liu Bing was the servant, so he could see through everything.

”What are you thinking?” Sun Fuping squinted, and his fair face was filled with suspicion.

Liu Bing listened to the commotion outside the study room and tried to brighten the faintly discernible candle lamp s. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief.

”How many years have you been following me?” Seeing that Liu Bing had no intentions to speak, Sun Fuping couldn't help but play Master and Servant.

”Twenty-three years, six months, ten days.” Liu Bing's memory was extremely good, for the date announced, since it was unexpected and orderly, no matter which master heard it, they would all be moved.

Therefore, Sun Fuping was no exception.
