Chapter 166 Rejection of Marriage (2)

Just because he changed from the Eighth Prince's Mansion to the Jinying Mansion, is Jiang Ruan really willing?

Concubine Shu suddenly laughed out loud: "Why are you trying to make a random match between you? Not to mention whether Your Highness Eighth Highness knows this, but Miss Jiang in front of you is also the daughter of Shangshu Jiang. Why don't your sister ask if Miss Jiang is willing to marry Your Highness Eighth Highness?"

As he faced tit-for-tat, Concubine Chen did not frown, but turned to look at Jiang Ruan, and her tone became softer and more amiable: "I forgot, Miss Jiang, do you look down on my Xiao Ba?"

This question was kind and playful, as if it was a joke from an ordinary woman from an ordinary family, Jiang Ruan sneered silently in her heart. Concubine Chen’s words were so good. What could she say? It was hard to say. She looked down on Xuan Li there. Not to mention that she would be the first to refuse her in front of so many people. But if she liked it, wouldn’t she jump into the fire pit?

Everyone held their breath and waited to listen to Jiang Ruan's answer. The female relatives were naturally indignant. Among the male relatives, Gu Yi and Jiang Xinzhi wanted to rush up and take Jiang Ruan away from this place of right and wrong. Dong Ying'er and Zhao Jin all secretly worried about Jiang Ruan. For them, they naturally knew that Jiang Ruan had never been intent to marry into the Tian family. Zhao Guang's heart was shocked, and he recognized that his granddaughter would be involved in this battle for the throne so soon. For the first time, Zhao Guang felt incompetent. He did not dare to block the entire general's mansion to help Jiang Ruan resist the order. Even at this moment, his heart was bleeding. Following his wife, Li, on the mattress, almost smashed the handkerchief in his hand, and his eyes were full of pain.

Jiang Ruan seemed very embarrassed, but did not immediately answer: "This..."

Her head lowered deeper, but she was counting quietly in her heart.

Concubine Chen smiled even deeper: "It's such a shy child. Your Majesty, I think this is an excellent marriage. I wonder if the emperor is willing to be a Yue Lao? Find someone who is so cute for Xiao Ba."

The emperor looked at him with a relaxed look, but he didn't want to stop him.

Xiao Shao looked deserted. After thinking about it, he pressed the teacup with one hand and stood up to ask the emperor for marriage. Who knew that he was about to get up, and a cold voice came: "The Ai family doesn't want to."

Jiang Ruan counted to three in his heart. He heard this and smiled, slowly raised his head, and followed the man's tone and said firmly: "Return to the words of the Imperial Concubine, Ruan Niang doesn't want to."

The first person to refuse was Queen Mother Yide.

Xuan Li, who had always been out of the matter, paused his face, and the gentle smile on the corner of his mouth stiffened for a moment. The rest of the people were puzzled, but Jiang Xinzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Even if Empress Dowager Yide spoke, the emperor would not easily refute it. Even if Concubine Chen was favored, the emperor would never disobey the Queen Mother Yide's intention for her.

Concubine Chen has always been smooth sailing in the palace, and she has no conflicts of interest with Empress Dowager Yide on weekdays. In addition, she has a very good reputation in the palace, and everyone loves her. Empress Dowager Yide is not close to her concubines except the queen, so she has always been in peace. Who knows that today, this most noble woman in the Dajin Dynasty refuted her suggestions mercilessly in front of all the civil and military officials and their families. If Empress Dowager Yide would forget it, Jiang Ruan actually refused. What was going on?
