My Fair Princess: The Queen's Rebirth
Chapter 238 Parents’ Orders and Matchmaker’s Words
"Father, I...why can't I make my own decision about my own life?" Xinrong said firmly, "I am the master of my own life."
Upon hearing this, the censor was furious.
He went up and slapped Xinrong again.
Xinrong covered her cheeks with her hands, tears welling up in her eyes.
She really couldn't imagine that her father, who had loved her so much in the past, would actually hit her.
The censor looked at Xinrong sternly, "Since ancient times, children's marriages have always been decided by their parents and matchmakers. How can you decide on your own?"
"Ama, you are so overbearing and arbitrary."
Xinrong said this as he rushed towards his mother.
She hugged her mother tightly and cried bitterly.
The Censor's wife hugged Xinrong and started crying too.
Then, the Imperial Censor's wife looked at her master and said, "Master, Xinrong was just confused for a moment, and there's nothing to be done about it yet, so why are you so angry? Besides, it wouldn't be a bad thing for Xinrong to marry into the imperial palace."
"What do you, a woman, know?" The censor sighed and continued, "Have you forgotten Zhihua? And... and Xia Yingying, whom the emperor brought back to the palace during his southern tour... Did they all have a happy ending? Some were sent to the cold palace, some died. Do you want our daughter to end up like this?"
After hearing what her master said.
She originally wanted to fight for Xinrong but ended up remaining silent.
It is true that entering the palace can bring wealth and glory to the family, but it is more about intrigue and deception. If you don't have a little bit of scheming and means, you will end up with the same fate as Zhihua and Xia Yingying.
Besides, Xinrong has been the apple of her family's eye since she was a child.
How could she be so scheming?
The wife of the censor said, "Master, I will try to persuade her later, and she will definitely listen." After that, she immediately pulled Xinrong and prepared to go back to the room.
But just as he turned to leave.
Xinrong suddenly let go of his mother's hand.
Xinrong walked up to Ama step by step.
He looked at Father with a determined look and said, "Father, I'll be honest with you. At first, I really didn't have any feelings for the Fifth Prince. But from the moment he risked his own life to protect me from danger, I felt that he was someone I could entrust my life to."
The voice just fell.
The censor went up to Xinrong without saying a word, grabbed her wrist tightly, and then walked quickly towards Xinrong's room.
The censor's wife was so frightened by the scene that she didn't know what to do.
"Father, please let me go." Xinrong kept struggling.
But the more Xinrong struggled, the tighter her father held her.
The censor dragged her away and said, "From today on, you must stay in your room and not go anywhere."
"Mother, please help me persuade my father."
Xinrong turned around and looked at his mother.
The Imperial Censor's wife quickened her pace and came to her master, blocking his way. "Master, please consider this as a plea from me. Please spare my daughter's life. I will definitely persuade her." Then she looked at Xinrong and said, "Good boy, tell your father that you will not have such messy thoughts anymore. Please sincerely apologize to your father."
"Mother, you...what are you talking about?" Xinrong shook her head.
When the Censor saw Xinrong like this, he pushed his wife away and continued walking forward until he arrived at the door of Xinrong's room.
He pulled Xinrong into the room with force.
However, Xiaohua, who had just returned from the kitchen, saw this and quickly went over to support her princess. Then she asked with a puzzled look on her face, "Master, Fu Jin, princess, what's going on?"
The Imperial Censor looked at Xiaohua and ordered, "From today on, you and your princess are not allowed to leave this room without my permission. Do you understand?"
After saying this, he took his wife out of the room and locked the door from the outside.
As he was leaving, he couldn't help but say to the room, "Xinrong, Xinrong, please don't be angry with Father. I did this entirely for your own good. You are the sweetheart of your mother and I. We will never send you to the palace no matter what."
"Ama." Xinrong kept banging on the door with both hands, but no matter how she shouted or said, her Ama remained indifferent. "Ama, please, let me out."
The Censor knew his daughter's character very well.
As long as it is something she has decided on.
She won't regret it even if she hits a wall.
The censor continued, "Alright, just stay in your room until I can choose a suitable husband for you. I will then let you out."
"Father, I don't want to marry someone I don't know." Xinrong cried, "Father, I beg you."
The censor turned around and walked towards his room.
When he was halfway there, he realized that his wife had not caught up with him, so he shouted, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
"Yes, yes, I'm here." The Imperial Censor's wife hurriedly followed her master's steps towards her room. As she walked, she continued to ask, "Master, are you really going to choose a husband for Xinrong? You must be trying to scare her, right?"
The censor paused for a moment and then continued walking. "Did I look like I was trying to scare her? And when have I ever been joking?"
After hearing this, the Imperial Censor's wife was stunned for a moment, "Master, but if you do this, you are simply forcing her to death."
"Then do you have any good suggestions?" After returning to the room, the censor closed the door and sat down and continued, "Xinrong has inherited my personality, but I am doing this for her own good. She will figure it out over time."
"But Master..."
"Okay, stop talking." The censor said, "Let me tell you, my colleagues in the court also have good men with both virtue and talent in their families, who are no less virtuous and talented than the Fifth Prince."
The censor's wife couldn't help but sigh.
This is the only way it can be now.
Xinrong lay on the table in the room and cried.
Big tears slowly slid down her cheeks, falling one by one on her sleeves. In a moment, her sleeves were soaked with tears.
Xiaohua looked at her princess with distress, "Princess, what happened? The master loves you the most, and he has never spoken to you so loudly before. Why is it that today..."
Xinrong raised her head and took Xiaohua's hand and said, "Father knows that I like the Fifth Prince, so...so he doesn't want me to go to the palace to see the Fifth Prince. Besides, Father also said that he would choose a suitable husband for me..."
"what?"
Xiaohua screamed loudly after hearing what her princess said.
"Gege, what should we do now?"
"How should I know what to do? The door is already locked from the outside, we can't get out." Xinrong said word by word, "Ama will definitely have someone guarding outside."
At this moment, Xiaohua came to the door with some hopelessness and pushed it hard, but it was indeed locked. Then she went to the window again and opened it, and found that there was indeed someone guarding outside.
"Hey, Princess, we must think of a solution carefully." Xiaohua said.
