486 Let me marry Xu Zifan

“It is considered inauspicious if the bride does not go to her selected groom’s house,” Noble Consort Xiuying intervened. She gazed at Qiu Zedong and continued, “Li Jianjun did so because he is young. I suppose he was enthusiastic and ended up doing a foolish mistake. Men usually visit such places and we cannot stop it. Your Majesty, Princess Jingfei should not step back from her marriage in this way. Not only the name of the royal family be tarnished, but no one will be ready to marry the First Princess.”

Li Jianjun realized that Xiuying was opening a way for him to turn the tables for him.

“Your Majesty, it was my foolish curiousness that I decided to visit the brothel house. Please forgive me,” Li Jianjun stated while pleading.

“Princess Jingfei should not marry Li Jianjun, Your Majesty. He will keep doing this even after his marriage. I can vouch for that,” Jin Yu proclaimed and stepped up. “Princess Jingfei is the princess of the kingdom and she deserves a potential husband not a man like Li Jianjun,” she asserted.

“I agree with the Crown Princess’s words. Father must not let Jingfei marry Li Jianjun,” Xiaoming pronounced and beamed at Jianjun. “You should not be standing here. So, leave the palace this instantly,” he said in anger.

“Sister Zhu, your own son is not thinking rationally. A woman’s dignity is always questioned. I think we all should forgive Li Jianjun and let them start afresh. Li Jianjun even gifted a portrait to Princess Jingfei. That already shows how much he adores our dear daughter,” Xiuying tried her best to make Jingfei marry Jianjun.

Qiu Mu wondered why his mother was acting this way.

All Xiuying wanted to make Jianjun act according to her if she succeeded in making them marry today. She wanted a rebel in the court against the Queen, so could be deposed from her position and she could get the Queen’s position easily. Li Zixuan would be thankful to her if Jingfei became Li’s family’s daughter-in-law.

“I have known Li Zixuan for a long time. The kingdom finances have always been stronger because of Li Zixuan’s good policies that he put forward and discussed with me. I agree that men make mistakes sometimes. Princess Jingfei should trust her father. Li Jianjun will not do it ever again,” Qiu Zedong stated.

.....

“Father!” Xiaoming stepped up and asked him to take that decision back. “I will not let my sister marry him. She does not deserve this, Father,” he stated and then looked at his mother. However, he had the least expectations from her.

“Crown Prince, as a father, I know what is best for my daughter. I know that her mother also wants the same. Am I right, My Queen?” Qiu Zedong asked.

“Yes, Your Majesty,” Zhu Liling agreed with the King’s decision.

Tianjie decided to tell the truth about how Li Jianjun wanted to take Song Jia as his mistress. He opened his mouth to speak up when he heard Jingfei speak.

“Since I must get married today, then let me select my groom, Father. I will die but I will not marry Li Jianjun,” Jingfei said with tears in her eyes.

“Princess Jingfei, why are you speaking this way? I am truly ashamed of what I did earlier. The moment I met the Princess, I pledged myself not to ever visit such places. I did not go there after my marriage was fixed with her,” Li Jianjun tried his best not to lose this last opportunity.

“Princess Jingfei, forgive Li Jianjun. We all want your good,” Xiuying stated and asked her to get into the palanquin as the auspicious moment was running away.

“Will you stop intervening?” Jin Yu almost shouted at Xiuying and went to Jingfei. “Why do you want to ruin the life of Princess Jingfei?” She questioned her and almost forgot the tone in which she was talking.

“Crown Princess, watch the way you speak,” Qiu Zedong sternly warned her. “How dare the Crown Princess question my decision?” He was infuriated at Jin Yu’s behavior.

“Do not force me to bring a well-mannered woman for the Crown Prince,” Qiu Zedong pronounced.

“Father, how could you say this?” Xiaoming did not like his father’s statement about his wife.

“Then, tell the Crown Princess to stay quiet. When the King takes a decision, then that’s become the final,” Qiu Zedong stated. Xiaoming was going to argue when Jin Yu held his hand and gestured to him to keep quiet.

Jingfei was on the verge of crying. She could not believe her own father was throwing her into a marriage where she would never be happy. However, she was rebellious and stubborn too. She looked at Xu Zifan, who had his gaze in her direction.

She lifted her high waist skirt slightly and walked in his direction.

“Princess Jingfei, where are you heading to?” Qiu Zedong asked, but she did not answer him.

Qiu Mu got away from her way and turned to look behind. Xu Zifan and Feng Lao were behind them. His brows furrowed together.

Jingfei stopped in front of Xu Zifan.

“Marry me, Xu Zifan,” Jingfei said.

“Pardon me?” Xu Zifan widened his eyes in shock. Feng Lao asked Jingfei not to involve his friend in that mess, but she did not pay heed to it.

“I want to marry you. Please save me. I will be an obedient wife to you,” Jingfei said. When Xu Zifan did not answer her, she continued, “I will take it as a yes.” She turned and before he could stop her, she told everyone present there.

“If I have to marry today, then I will marry Xu Zifan. If Father forcefully sent me to Li Jianjun’s house as his wife, he will have to see my dead body tomorrow,” Jingfei pronounced while clutching her dress tightly.

“Jingfei, don’t speak that way. Come here,” Zhu Liling scolded her.

“Princess Jingfei has lost her mind. How could she marry a man who does not have a limb? He is physically disabled,” Xiuying left no opportunity to humiliate Xu Zifan and smirked a little.

Feng Lao’s jaw clenched to hear that. The royal family was so toxic.

“You have no right to humiliate my soon-to-be husband, Second Mother. Why do you have to be this poisonous? A big heart is necessary, and I respect Xu Zifan for that. Xu Zifan is even stronger than many top-tier soldiers and commanders. If Father considers me as his precious child, then let me marry Xu Zifan. I will be happy with him,” Jingfei asserted while gazing into her father’s eyes.
