Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 1487 - 1425: News from the Inner Circle
Under the persuasion of Wufu and Guan Chuying, Changping gradually stopped crying, and after being attended by Qing Xin, she refreshed her face before sitting down to talk with them.
"The Crown Prince Song is not suitable for you, nor is he a good match. If you don’t want this, you must find a way to resist to the end!" Wufu recalled Song Wei’s arrogant demeanor and said to Changping: "Not to mention his character, but with your temperament, you are not suitable to be a Clan Matron either!"
Changping has a lively and vibrant personality; she’s not as steady as Guan Chuying. If she were made a Clan Matron, it’s not impossible, but it would be difficult, requiring a long time to refine herself on this path.
During this time, if she cannot adapt, she will wither quickly. After all, survival of the fittest is an everlasting truth.
Moreover, Song Wei is not a decent person, and he seems to have some issues with propriety, how could he be a good match? How can one expect him to support a Legitimate Wife?
Without the help and support of a husband, it would be even more difficult within a new family. Wufu doesn’t want to see Changping wither away.
"Your judgment is always accurate," Guan Chuying said with a smile.
Wufu replied, "I just speak for the facts. Changping, you’re only suited for someone with a good temper. It’s okay if he’s a bit more easygoing, but he must complement your personality. Hmm, there’s nothing wrong with marrying down, at least the in-laws wouldn’t dare belittle or bully you. Who you choose as your spouse depends on the kind of life you want to lead."
Changping listened intently, nodded, looked at Guan Chuying, and held her hand, saying, "Just some days ago, Wufu and I came to console you, and now, not long after, it’s your turn to console me."
Guan Chuying gave a bitter smile: "So you must also pull yourself together. As Wufu said, who hasn’t gone through a few wastrels? We will all be alright! You’re not even settled yet!"
Changping nodded.
She looked at Wufu again and said: "I’ve been driven mad by my own affairs these days, so I haven’t been to see you, but I did hear from people down below about your family... no, that family’s situation, is everything alright? Is there anything in need of assistance?"
"It’s kind of you. Everything is going smoothly; I have no relation with that family anymore, and I’ve even changed my surname to follow my mother’s surname Zhou." Wufu smiled: "From now on you must call me Miss Zhou."
Guan Chuying and Changping exchanged a glance and laughed: "Miss Zhou, you’re too formal, we will continue to call you Wufu."
Wufu shrugged.
Seeing the topic shift, Guan Chuying turned to talk about the Empress Dowager’s birthday celebration. She mentioned that the Beiyan delegation would arrive and hunt at the hunting grounds, and that horseball and Cuju ball game matches would be held at the Empress Dowager’s birthday banquet, with teams divided by gender, and they were starting to form teams. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Changping said, "It’s the same every year, it seems that this circle of noble ladies will liven up again."
"I remember you played horseball last year as well?" Guan Chuying asked: "How about this year?"
"Hmm, Ma Zhen from the General’s family has already sent me an invitation, but you can see what I’m like now..." Changping gave a bitter smile.
Guan Chuying said: "I heard that those who win the competition can ask the Empress Dowager for marriage arrangement."
Changping was startled.
"What if the couple doesn’t get along? If neither party sees eye to eye, once a marriage is arranged, wouldn’t they become enemies? And it’s difficult to revoke a royal matchmaking!" Wufu curiously asked.
"Naturally, it’s only among those who already have intentions, having a royal matchmaking simply looks more dignified." Guan Chuying explained with a smile.
Wufu then understood, silently picking up a pastry to nibble on, since it had nothing to do with her.
