The Favored Little Peasant Seizes the Heroine's Script!-Chapter 430 - 414: The Endless Love of Parents

The Emperor Xia clearly wants to use the space she controls, uh, in the view of the Emperor Xia, that is an Immortal Treasure. But, the Emperor Xia does not trust her very much, or rather, under the Emperor’s Heart Skill, trust is relative.

If she were to be betrothed to Wei Wushang, then she would be considered a member of the royal family.

Thus, she should be able to gain the trust of the Emperor Xia, right!

Of course, if the Emperor Xia can’t even trust his own legitimate nephew, then what can Yuan Bao do?

"Sigh..."

The carriage had gone halfway, and Ruan Wan had sighed thirteen times already.

"My dear sister, that’s the thirteenth sigh!"

"I heard people say that if you sigh often, it makes you age quickly!"

Yuan Bao knew that Ruan Wan was worried for her, but in Ruan Wan’s view, there was really no need for such concern. After all, it’s like being a knife on the chopping block, and she being the fish.

"You’re still laughing, how can you laugh at a time like this?"

"I’m about to worry myself to death!"

Ruan Wan glared at Yuan Bao with hatred for iron not becoming steel.

Yuan Bao looked at the worried and conflicted Ruan Wan, blinked, and said, "Sister Ruan, can you tell me what you’re worried about?"

"Of course it’s about your marriage!"

Ruan Wan glared.

Yuan Bao shrugged his shoulders, said, "Sister Ruan, look, I’ll analyze the situation for you."

"Okay, go ahead!"

Ruan Wan’s current state of mind was somewhat like the emperor is not anxious but the eunuch is. She understood clearly, since Yuan Bao had no objection to this matter, she shouldn’t be overly concerned. But really, she couldn’t help but worry.

To outsiders, Yuan Bao was her daughter, although Yuan Bao always called her "sister." And in Ruan Wan’s heart, her feelings for Yuan Bao were very complex.

Sometimes, Ruan Wan treated Yuan Bao like a sister, and other times, like a daughter. But whether as a sister or a daughter, Ruan Wan’s feelings for Yuan Bao were truly from her heart.

She wished for Yuan Bao to have a life of peace and happiness.

But in this current situation, it’s clearly hard to say.

In terms of Wei Wushang, he could be considered her cousin, and she also wished for Wei Wushang to have a blissful marriage.

But Wei Wushang bears the reputation of being unlucky to his wives; if Yuan Bao really settles a marriage agreement with Wei Wushang, will something go wrong?

Such a matter, Yuan Bao may not take seriously, but Ruan Wan could not ignore.

Thinking too much, naturally, Ruan Wan’s mindset couldn’t stay calm.

"Sister Ruan, firstly, I know you’re worried about and looking out for me!"

"But honestly, I think this is quite good."

Yuan Bao looked earnestly at Ruan Wan, "Think about it, now the Fourteenth Prince has his eyes on me, along with the Twenty-ninth Prince, and behind them is Imperial Concubine Yi."

"Imperial Concubine Yi is the Emperor’s favored concubine. Whether or not she’s acting with his influence, who can surely say?"

"About this, we surely can’t gamble!"

Upon hearing Yuan Bao’s analysis, Ruan Wan fell silent.

Anything involving the Emperor is no longer a trivial matter.

Although she also called the Emperor Xia "uncle," yet they were not direct blood relatives. The favor shown by the Emperor Xia was more out of respect for her grandmother, the Eldest Princess.

"Anything else?"

Ruan Wan glanced at Yuan Bao, expressing agreement with Yuan Bao’s analysis.

"There’s also the point that, Sister Ruan, don’t you think Wushang is actually quite good?"

"Apart from his fine appearance, he’s also gifted in both literature and martial arts!"

"Even if being an uncle, compared to Wushang, isn’t he a lot overshadowed, right?"

It’s not that Yuan Bao was disparaging Yuan Yindi, but it was genuinely the truth.

Wei Wushang was truly well-rounded in both literary and martial arts, while Yuan Yindi was simply remarkable in the literary talents.

Comparing the two, Wei Wushang utterly outmatched Yuan Yindi.

If not for Wei Wushang carrying the reputation of being unlucky to wives, who knows how many noble women would have set their eyes on him.

"Jiaojiao, aren’t you afraid I’ll tell your uncle these words?"

Ruan Wan playfully tapped Yuan Bao’s shoulder.

Yuan Bao laughed, saying, "Why should I be afraid? I’m speaking the facts, even if uncle knows, can he deny it?" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"...What a waste raising you!"

Ruan Wan playfully tapped Yuan Bao’s forehead twice.

Yuan Bao joyfully spoke, "Sister Ruan, see, if we analyze it like this, if I truly can marry Wushang, doesn’t it seem to be a great advantage?"

"What advantage? Wushang is much older than you!"

Ruan Wan was still somewhat displeased.

Of course, her displeasure mostly stemmed from Wei Wushang’s age being too much older, while Yuan Bao seemed quite young in comparison.

"Sister Ruan, age is not a problem!"

"Alright then, if you really like it, then I won’t meddle!"

Ruan Wan sighed again, and that was the last sigh.

Since Yuan Bao had already made up her mind, she could only silently bless her.

Upon returning to the Yuan Family Mansion, Ruan Wan eagerly found Yuan Yindi to tell him about the recent trip to the Wei Family.

"Brother Wu, do you really let Jiaojiao decide on this marriage?"

After speaking, Ruan Wan fixed her eyes on Yuan Yindi.

Yuan Yindi was silent for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on his face, saying, "Isn’t it all good?"

"What good?"

"Everything is good!"

Yuan Yindi smiled and held Ruan Wan’s hand, "Wanwan, I know you’re looking out for Jiaojiao. But, some things aren’t good just because we think so. This matter still depends on Jiaojiao’s thoughts!"

"The girl has been firm in her ideas from a young age, if she doesn’t oppose it, it means she truly agrees with this marriage."

"Besides, Brother Wushang is talented in both literature and martial arts, even I am not his equal."

"Doesn’t it feel awkward?"

Ruan Wan glared at Yuan Yindi, "Before you were calling Brother Wushang your brother, and now your relationship will not be the same, oh!"

"Listen to what you’re saying, even if someone should feel awkward, it shouldn’t be me!"

Yuan Yindi was thick-skinned.

Anyway, when this marriage is settled, he became upgraded to being a father-in-law, what is there for him to feel awkward about?

...

"Mother, isn’t this nonsense?"

"Jiaojiao is so young, what joke am I supposed to make with her?"

At the Wei Family, Wei Wushang was dumbfounded after hearing from his mother, the Eldest Princess, about the matter.

"I’ve always called Brother Yuan Xiaowu my brother; with this change, how am I supposed to face him, and the cousin at the Ruan Family,..."

"Brat, shut your mouth!"

The Eldest Princess wasn’t there to discuss matters with her son.

She was merely there to deliver a notice.

"Do you think you’re the only one embarrassed?"

"Your mother, me, and your father, we are even more embarrassed!"

"But, have we said anything?"

"Why do you think mother does this? Isn’t it all for you?"

The Eldest Princess glared at her only son, "I’m telling you, whether you agree or not, you must agree, or else you can watch your mother be unable to die in peace!"
