After entering the book, the cold prince begs for favor

The next day, when Yuan Wanru got up, just like the previous few days, Lu Jiangnian was nowhere to be seen.

Breakfast was already served. After she sat down, Aunt Pang came over and whispered, "The imperial physician has been sent for from the next courtyard. He says Madam Liu is ill."

"sick?"

Yuan Wanru felt a little strange. When they were in the maple forest yesterday, Lu Wei seemed to be in good health.

Nanny Pang glanced at the people beside her and lowered her voice even more: "The eldest young master went over there last night, and they seemed to be arguing."

The implication is that Lu Wei might be sick from anger.

"Oh, if she's sick, just take good care of herself. I won't go to see her, so as to avoid making her condition worse."

It is reasonable for her to go.

However, Aunt Pang knew that even if Yuan Wanru was open-hearted to Lu Wei, Lu Wei would not think well of her.

The eldest son and the eldest lady both tacitly agreed that their wives would no longer have any contact with Lu Wei, so there was no need to try to please them.

After eating about 70% full, Yuan Wanru was ready to go out. Madam Pang worriedly reminded her, "Look, it's windy today and it's getting a lot colder outside. Wear something warmer. The horse farm is open, don't catch a cold."

Wearing a thick coat and a thin cloak, Yuan Wanru walked straight towards the carriage.

Although the weather was not very good, the racecourse was very lively.

Autumn is a season rich in colors. The vast grassland is a blend of yellow and green. When the cold wind blows, the grass sways and the waves roll up and down, which is spectacular.

Although the palace is large, it is the most lively place, except for the emperor's side.

I heard that every day, people would meet here to race horses and compete to see who was the best.

When she and Lu Yun walked into the stables, they saw Sun Haining and Sun Huanzhi surrounding a chestnut horse, talking about something.

Before Yuan Wanru and the others got close, Wan Bin also came over.

"Why, is the game about to start?"

Today, Sun Haining invited several girls to compete in equestrianism.

Sun Haining glanced over. She was wearing a bright red riding suit today. She looked heroic, energetic and very eye-catching.

"Not yet. I was thinking that you wouldn't stay at home just because the weather changed. If that were the case, I would definitely ignore you."

Although the two became friends, their personalities were quite different, one active and the other quiet.

As they spoke, a cool autumn breeze blew up. Yuan Wanru gathered her cloak and said, "Just wear something thicker. I also like to watch the fun."

Today she was wearing a light blue waisted jacket and skirt with a pale pink cape. The colors were calm and refreshing. When she looked at me with a smile, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and the golden grass and trees on the ground became the background.

When Sun Huanzhi looked over, he met her smile. Her bright blue eyes smiled, and the gloomy sky seemed to become much brighter.

It feels like she has become more beautiful.

He didn't dare look at her for too long. This was his best friend's wife, and he couldn't lose his composure.

At this time, Wan Bin and Lu Yun also looked at each other, and then both of them looked away with blushing faces.

Yuan Wanru captured this scene and couldn't help but sigh, what innocent boys and girls they were.

Sun Haining walked over and pointed to a tea stall in the northwest corner. "See? Murong Ling is here today too. Princess An Ning is sitting in that tea stall."

Yuan Wanru certainly knew who this Princess An Ning was.

Speaking of which, although Yuan Wanru didn't know this noble lady, she still admired her very much.

As a woman, she is very frank and straightforward.

When Princess An Ning was eighteen years old, she asked to choose her own husband.

Young girls are in love and like handsome men, and princesses are no exception.

She fell in love with a young man from a wealthy family and went to his house in person to ask if he was willing to marry her.

Being favored by the most favored princess of Dajing City, I think not many people can refuse such an honor.

Who would have thought that less than a year after her marriage, the princess went to the palace to ask for a divorce.

Although there are many different opinions about the reasons for the divorce, privately, everyone generally believes that the most reliable one is that the prince consort is not good enough.

Seems useless.

According to rumors in the palace, Princess An Ning said in person that her husband was too useless and could not meet her needs, and she did not like being a living widow.

Such words were so explosive. If they were to spread, how would people in the world view the princess?

Although I don’t know how the rumor spread, at that moment, how could the late emperor agree with his daughter’s nonsense?

After dragging on for more than half a year, who would have thought that Princess An Ning would start frequenting places of entertainment, and now the rumors have intensified.

The late emperor finally issued an edict, and the princess and her husband divorced.

Afterwards, Princess An Ning got married quickly, and her second husband was a strong and powerful general.

Comparing the past and the present, people are increasingly convinced that the real reason why the princess did not want her first husband was because of that aspect.

I thought Princess An Ning would live happily ever after from now on.

Unexpectedly, the second prince consort was short-lived and died accidentally a year after his marriage.

Princess An Ning was not cold-hearted towards him. After observing mourning for a year, she announced that she wanted to choose a son-in-law.

She chose quietly. First, she asked the painter to send all the portraits of young men of appropriate age in the capital to her desk. After screening, she picked out twenty men with outstanding looks.

Afterwards, she set up a fighting arena for them to compete, and she would choose the best one.

The scene was very chaotic, and many people were very disgusted with Princess An Ning's behavior.

But, she is a princess, who dares to say anything?

After several months of hard work, Princess An Ning finally chose a satisfactory son-in-law who was four years younger than her.

To this day, the man beside her is still that prince consort. Later, they had children, and the years passed.

Sun Haining said in a tone that seemed to be watching a playful scene: "The Princess of Qin asked Princess An Ning to act as a matchmaker, hoping to marry Murong Ling to the Wang family."

"Because of Princess An Ning's reputation, the Wang family may be reluctant, but they have to bite the bullet and agree to this marriage."

Yuan Wanru asked curiously, "Does Princess An Ning love Murong Ling more?"

I don’t think I’ve heard of it before.

Sun Haining shook his head: "That's not the case. It seems that it's because Princess Qin helped the eldest princess before, so she interfered with Murong Ling's marriage."

"However, Murong Ling is her niece, and the eldest princess doesn't dislike her."

Speaking of this, she glanced at Yuan Wanru and said, "I heard that when Murong Ling threatened to marry Lu Jiangnian, the princess was quite supportive, thinking that she had her own ideas."

Yuan Wanru was speechless.

That has to be mutual.

"The eldest princess has always been unconventional and her likes and dislikes are hard to determine. We should stay away from her."

Yuan Wanru now understood that Sun Haining was afraid that she would suffer a loss.

"Don't worry, I'll be there to watch you race."

She pointed to the stands to the south, which was exactly the opposite direction from Murong Ling and the others.

However, there are some things that cannot be avoided.
