Chapter 630 - 641: How to Deal with Concubine Du?
Madam Lu honestly answered, "Previously, it was his father who was considering this matter; I have not yet taken a fancy to anyone."
She thought to herself, The Empress is too impatient, I just mentioned that I haven’t been involved in this.
"Oh, what a coincidence!" The Empress casually lifted her eyes and glanced toward a lady seated on the right, softly saying, "The Ducal Residence has a daughter from the fourth lady’s family who possesses virtue and talent, and she is close in age to your family’s Tianning. Why not consider her!"
Upon her words, everyone followed the Empress’s gaze toward Madam Jin, who sat amidst the crisis.
Madam Jin’s face showed a somewhat awkward expression, but with everyone looking at her, she could only nod and smile faintly to Madam Lu.
Madam Lu’s eyes sparkled with delight, clearly very satisfied with the Empress’s suggestion.
For a young lady from the Ducal Residence to marry into their family would be social climbing on their part; her son being able to marry the Ducal Residence’s young lady naturally made her happy.
Madam Lu said excitedly, "This... this is good indeed, but my husband’s temper... he definitely won’t allow me to make the decision. Empress, I must go back and discuss this thoroughly with my husband!"
"That’s good, Madam Lu is truly virtuous!" said the Empress with a light smile.
Next was some singing and dancing.
