Chapter 543: The Queen Said No

As Xunyang’s marriage was mentioned, the Queen looked at the King in surprise. “Xunyang is not yet old enough, how can her marriage be mentioned?”

The Queen had no idea why she felt something terrible around the corner. The King had changed too much during the past few days. The Queen felt that she almost lost track of who he really was.

Why was he mentioning Xunyang’s marriage at this point?

The King looked relaxed. He sipped a cup of tea and said, “True, but Xunyang is becoming an adult next year, and we always have their engagement ready before adulthood so it can happen when they are old enough. It is not early to have her engaged.”

The Queen felt suffocated inwardly.

In the past… she was very sure that Xunyang would stay in the land rather than marry someone else, and that made her happy, but Huaijin’s marriage had set an example, and that made her feel reluctant to believe that the King would care about Xunyang’s happiness.

“You got a candidate?” The Queen asked.

“Yes.” The King nodded in satisfaction. “I have got one candidate, the Young Master of the Gu Family. He has just turned twenty and is a good suitor. In this way, Xunyang doesn’t have to marry externally and can visit you whenever she wants.”

When the Queen heard about the title, she had not thought of which Gu Family he was talking about.

After thinking for a while, she suddenly remembered that it was that Gu Family who had the old Princess Consort removed and got the position for themselves.

So the Elder Brother of Chaoyan with a different mother.

“No! Never!” The Queen turned it down. She looked very furious. “King, do you still take Xunyang as your princess?”

The King had already been prepared for such a reaction. He looked calm. The more the Queen was displeased about it, the more he wanted it to happen.

He was not a noble Young Master, so what? He was not born in a nice family, so what? He could marry the Princess!

The King thought inwardly.

“Of course I regard her as the princess, that is why I made this plan. Gu Ruxue is the Phoenix Girl, chosen by Heaven, a blessed woman! Gu Yunhe is her Elder Brother, sharing the same mother. He is totally right for Xunyang!”

The Queen shook her head. She was a very gentle woman and she barely showed any emotions.

“So what? I say no!” The Queen turned him down with determination. “King, if you really care about Xunyang, you should look into that person. How could he be a suitor for Xunyang?” The Queen sounded desperate because of utter anger.

When Chaoyan had the intention of marrying Huaijin, the Queen was worried about this gossiped about woman who was marrying Huaijin. So she sent someone to investigate Chaoyan and the Gu Mansion. Only Chaoyan was satisfying throughout the entire Gu Mansion. As for that Young Master…

The Queen snorted… that was such an arrogant man!

“Why not? He is the Phoenix Girl’s brother!” The King was displeased – he was the Phoenix Girl’s brother!

The Queen sneered. She looked at the King – since when did the King become fascinated by what a fortune-teller said.

“I don’t care.”
