Chapter 201 - First Update
"Mother, I have known the difficulty of this matter; hence, I dared not bring it up." Zong Yunqian glanced at his mother, feeling that it was better to endure the short pain than the prolonged agony.
Gu Dao looked at his own princely heir. What was this new drama? When had it started? Why was there no hint of it?
Eldest Madam Zong was startled and looked at her son with some confusion. They had only been in the Imperial City for about ten days, and Zong Yunqian had met the princess just once.
Therefore, there was still a chance to change the situation; she must not panic first.
Eldest Madam Zong suddenly felt that this matter was related to her forcing her son to choose a bride.
"Yunqian, the selection of a Crown Prince’s wife must be done carefully. There is no need to rush. However, that princess is definitely not suitable." Eldest Madam Zong took a deep breath. This matter had to be nipped in the bud.
"Mother, I’ve made my decision. If it isn’t Princess Chao Ren, I will never marry." Zong Yunqian also showed no sign of stepping back.
Gu Dao became anxious. Did the princely heir not know about Eldest Madam Zong’s temper? Couldn’t everything be discussed amicably? This was yet another start to a commotion.
What exactly did the princely heir want to do? Given the identity of that princess, Eldest Madam Zong and the Old Madam would definitely disagree. Prince Duan had not intended that day either, and the heir had acknowledged that he would never mention the incident.
So, what was the heir trying to achieve? Was it just a ploy to prevent the Eldest Madam and others from pressuring him into choosing a Crown Prince’s wife? Because they would definitely disagree with the princess.
"Madam, the princely heir is only being deeply loyal and feels that he should take responsibility..." Gu Dao could not think of any better excuses for now, leaning towards a favorable interpretation was nevertheless correct.
