Secrets of Yuqing Palace

Without waiting for Huang Cheng to speak, Wanyu continued.

"What's more, nowadays, even ordinary people, once they have a few coins, will want to take a concubine."

"The prince's harem will only have more concubines and princesses, and his illegitimate children will be numerous."

"If a favored concubine with children were to challenge the Crown Princess, then the Crown Princess's position wouldn't be secure."

"The Crown Princess needs to manage the vast Eastern Palace and handle the complex affairs of the harem."

"You also need to be a good wife and help the prince solve his problems. How difficult that will be."

"Any omission will be magnified infinitely, and the pressure and responsibility are too great."

"I'm used to being free and uninhibited at home. I don't like to get involved in other people's affairs, but I also don't like to be bothered by other people's affairs."

Huang Cheng asked: "You said it yourself, that's the norm for men in this world, and you will face this situation when you get married in the future."

"Are you planning to remain single for the rest of your life?"

Hearing him say this, Wanyu's face was filled with pride and happiness.

I am a big baby who is loved by my family!

"My father and mother had already thought of it for me, and Mafa and Mama also agreed."

"After the election, I will find me a Manchurian man with good character and whose family is not that powerful."

"In the future, my husband's family will need the support of my family. They won't dare and won't do anything to let me down."

"I can lord it over everyone if I marry him, and do whatever I want, just like I'm at home."

"Don't even think about it, like a concubine's child or something like that."

"I don't want to compete with a bunch of women in the backyard for a man, nor do I want to find concubines for my man, and I don't want to raise a lot of illegitimate children."

"Not only is it troublesome, but I'll even have to fight with my children over the family inheritance in the future."

"I am the most stingy person, so I don't want to share my things with others!"

Although she was somewhat attracted to Huang Cheng, this did not stop her from telling the truth. After all, she would not lower her standards for others.

Moreover, she felt that if the other party was interested in her, he should be able to understand the implicit meaning of her words.

If you want to marry me, you must first ensure that I have a clean backyard, and even then, don’t do anything shady in the future.

If you have this realization, then come and tell me something else.

Otherwise everything is empty talk.

Huang Cheng couldn't help laughing after hearing her reasons. He certainly understood what she meant.

She really said whatever she thought, without any intention of concealing anything.

Huang Cheng was a little slow to react because the straightforwardness made him unable to react. After all, no matter whether it was the former dynasty or the harem, everyone spoke and did things in a roundabout way.

I was afraid that if I spoke too bluntly, I would be thought of as a fool who was easy to bully.

I am also worried that I might be careless when speaking and offend others unintentionally.

Every sentence has to go around in my mind several times, and then I have to say it in my mouth. Only when I feel it is safe will I finally say it out loud.

[But taking a concubine or a side room....]

Yinreng thought about the feasibility of this matter in his mind.

I like her now, and I have been misogynistic since I recovered from smallpox as a child.

Although I don’t know if my misogyny will be completely cured, I no longer show misogyny when I am with her.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to get close to that talkative Amur.

Even the maids and servants around her had almost no influence on her.

If he had not felt nauseous and wanted to vomit again when he came into close contact with young women after leaving her, he would have mistakenly believed that his misogyny had been cured.

Although he didn't know whether his misogyny would improve after she married him, he definitely had no intention of marrying anyone else now.

Because he can see through people's hearts and know what those women are thinking, the greed and filth in their hearts make him feel sick and disgusted.

Especially in Khan Ama's harem, I saw too many women fighting for favor, scheming against each other, framing each other, and even murdering their own children.

It made him stay away from those women even more.

In addition, the woman whose thoughts he could see through at a glance made him feel boring.

Therefore, Yinreng never thought that the more women in his backyard, the better.

On the contrary, I don’t know if it’s because he has been a Buddhist for many years, but he is also very pure and has no special physical needs for women.

For the sake of peace in his backyard, he even felt that it would be better if there were fewer women in the backyard.

Now seeing her taboo and disgust towards concubines and illegitimate children in the backyard, he felt that it was not impossible to marry only her in the future.

Of course, the prerequisite is that she can give birth to children for him.

Otherwise, you won’t be able to pass Khan Ama’s level.

Huang Cheng looked straight at Wanyu.

"Since Sister Wanyu doesn't have that idea, I wonder what I...how do I do?"

Wanyu's heart was beating like a drum. "You?"

Huang Cheng nodded, "Yes."

"Sister Wanyu has a certain understanding of me. She should have a good idea of ​​what kind of person I am."

"And I can assure Sister Wanyu that from now on, it will only be you, no second wives and no illegitimate children."

Although I knew that he had feelings for me, I didn't expect him to ask me so directly.

Wanyu felt a little nervous and helpless about his sudden confession of feelings, and even stuttered when she spoke.

"Aren't we here to discuss business today?"

"You...how could you...why would you suddenly say something like that?"

Huang Cheng looked at her little face which turned red with nervousness and knew that she was also interested in him.

I felt very proud and secretly happy.

[Hmph~ I knew I was so charming. ]

[You ignored me a few days ago, but now you've become completely obsessed with me.]

【A woman who says one thing and means another...】

Huang Cheng cleared his throat and said, "I think Sister Wanyu is very special. I really want to spend the rest of my life with her."

"From the first time we met, I knew that I was destined to be with Sister Wanyu."

Yinreng was referring to the fact that when he was in the Huguo Temple, he could hear the voices of everyone, including the second wife of the Guwalja clan, Gioro, who was making a pious wish in front of the Buddha, but he could not hear the voice of the little girl Wanyu beside her.

At that time, he suspected that she might be the destined person he was looking for.

But Wanyu was thinking about the time when she fell off the carriage and was accidentally rescued by him.

"He became my savior, it was truly fate."

Huang Cheng continued, "Then my unexpected encounter with Sister Wanyu further confirmed our connection."

"Actually, I envy you. You're free and easy, living a simple and happy life. This is something I don't have."

Wanyu saw a flash of desolation in his eyes and thought of the situation at home.

His biological mother died early, and although his father loved him, he had many stepmothers and stepbrothers, so he certainly couldn't do as he pleased at home.

Huang Cheng smiled easily.

"And your uniqueness, your talent, your intelligence, and your purity and clarity all make me want to know more."

"I've met countless people, but I've never met anyone like you."

Wanyu asked with a curious smile, "What am I like?"

Huang Cheng said with admiration in his eyes: "She has a capable family, is loved by her father and brothers, and is the only legitimate daughter in the family."

"I've seen many princesses from large families. In fact, their families are not as prosperous as the Guarjia family, but the princesses they raise are arrogant, domineering, and vicious."

"But you are different. You are talented but not ostentatious, and you are easygoing but intelligent."

"You not only have talent, but also the character to match it."

Wanyu's face flushed with praise from him, and she asked while suppressing her shyness.

"Am I really as good as you say?"

Huang Cheng nodded affirmatively, "Of course!"

"And after several interactions with you, I can feel that you and I not only have a resonance of talent, but also a compatibility of temperament."

"When I talk to you, I always have endless things to say. It seems like we have an innate tacit understanding."

"I...I think this is probably fate's arrangement, allowing me to meet you and get to know you."

This was not a trick by Yinreng to make her agree.

He had this feeling during his trip to Xiangshan last year.

There is an unspoken tacit understanding between them.

She said when she was reciting poems, playing the zither, and when their eyes met unintentionally.

They seemed to know what the other was thinking and what they wanted to say at the time.

The advice she gave him inadvertently also made him suddenly enlightened.

Just like clearing away the clouds and fog, you can face your situation more clearly.

Wanyu thought of the scene of "selling oneself to bury father" that they saw when they went to the outer city.

She felt mixed emotions, nervous but also happy.
