Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1726

But Chi Shuang thought about it and realized that she was already 20 years old and it was impossible for her to find a good husband. Moreover, her mother had been bullied by her mother-in-law all her life, which frightened her.

Instead of doing this, why should she bother herself?

She doesn't want to get married. She wants to live on her own.

That day, Shi Anxia invited Chi Shuang to her house for tea and relaxation, and said casually, "Miss Chi, if you have any difficulties or ideas, you can raise them with the court. I believe His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will consider it carefully and try his best to satisfy you."

The implication is, bring it up while the iron is hot.

Chi Shuang's thin shoulders suddenly straightened, and the half-transmitted sunlight from the window made her eyes full of determination, "Your Highness, I have two things to ask..."

Shi Anxia could see that this girl really wasn't going to be polite at all. She smiled softly, and said patiently, "Tell me one thing at a time."

"This is the first one." Chi Shuang clenched her hands and said firmly, "I want to set up a new family and completely remove my father's lineage from the Chi family tree."

She dug her fingertips deep into her palms, "My father is a man of outstanding talent, my brother shed his blood on the battlefield—" Her throat choked for a moment, and when she spoke again, every word was as cold as ice, "I will not let any of this glory slip through my fingers to the Chi family, they don't deserve it."

"What about the second thing?" Shi Anxia found that this girl was sober enough that it was a bit distressing.

Perhaps she felt that she had gritted her teeth too much just now, and only realized her impoliteness after she finished speaking. Chi Shuangyu's eyelashes trembled and drooped, "I think, I think..."

Some of them are hard to talk about.

Shi Anxia became curious, "Tell me, I want to hear if it's easy to do or not."

Chi Shuang mustered up her courage and presented the yellowed manuscript book, "Princess, can you please take a look at the lyrics written by my mother? Can it be published?"

Shi Anxia took the manuscript, flipped through it quickly, and understood it in a moment.

This girl did not intend to earn money from her manuscripts, but to make public the grievances her mother had suffered in the Chi family and to seek a legitimate reason for her to leave the family.

After all, her expulsion from the clan was handled by the imperial court, and it would be unpleasant for the imperial court to bear the ethical blame.

For example, "The red candle burns out in the cold winter, kneeling to serve medicine, her hands are covered with spots." This is the scene of a daughter-in-law who is abused by her mother-in-law, kneeling to serve medicine in the middle of the night in winter, with blue and purple spots on her hands.

There are many similar ones, and every word and sentence is an accusation against the mother-in-law's blood.

In addition, I'm afraid this girl is still trying hard to prove that her mother is worthy of her talented father.

Whatever the reason, Shi Anxia agreed, "Okay, leave the manuscript with me. If you have anything else at home, send it over. Go back and listen to me, I will definitely get it done for you."

Chi Shuang stood up and said goodbye. As she was leaving the room, she returned to the door and kowtowed deeply to Shi Anxia, saying sincerely, "Princess, you are my noble lady."

Shi Anxia thought about it, then suddenly waved her to come forward and asked, "Do you know that both the Vanguard Envoy and the Deputy Vanguard Envoy want to marry you?"

Chi Shuang was not overwhelmed by this unexpected good news. "They feel sorry for me." After a pause, she continued, "They also feel guilty towards my brother. I thank you for your kindness, but I will not accept it."

Shi Anxia raised her eyebrows. She really liked such a sober girl. "One of them is the legitimate son of the Duke of Huguo, and the other is the legitimate son of General Ma. Aren't you tempted?"

Chi Shuang replied respectfully, her eyes as clear as autumn water, "That house must have been given by the two gentlemen. I am ashamed to say that I really need a place to live, so I dare to accept it temporarily. When I have enough money in the future, I will definitely return it in full."

Shi Anxia was not surprised that the other party had guessed it exactly. This was the result of going through countless trials and tribulations in life to become what he is today.

Accept a gift with a calm attitude. Return a gift with a calm attitude.

Then Chi Shuang said, "Princess, please tell the two adults that there is no need to feel guilty. Fighting in battle is the duty of the men of Beiyi, and dying on the battlefield is also our responsibility."

She knelt down again and took her leave, her linen sleeves fluttering in the wind, but her thin back remained straight.

As the copper bells on the eaves tinkled, Shi Anxia thought of a painting called "Cold Plum Blossoms" - the more severe the wind and snow, the more the bones and muscles are exposed. Isn't this talking about Miss Chi Shuang?
