Ming Da was more honest than Bai Cheng, Man Bao nodded when he asked her, "I really like him."
Man Bao couldn't help being curious, "What do you like about him?"
Mingda couldn't help but smiled before saying, "I think he looks a lot like you."
Man Bao: ... how does she look like Bai Er? She is so smart!
Mingda smiled and narrowed his eyes and said: "That's it, this energy is very similar, and he is not only healthy but also happy, I know, you are not afraid of us, and he is not afraid of us, so you don't want to get anything from us, I am very happy to be friends with you, and I rarely have such people around me."
What Mingda didn't say clearly was that she was not surrounded by very few people, but only two or three of them.
It was Sister Changyu, the sisters had a deep relationship, but at the beginning, including now, she was kind to her not only because of their sisterhood since they were young, but also because she was the daughter of the emperor father and the empress mother.
Although Mingda didn't care about this, but when he met Zhou Man and Bai Erlang, who didn't try to please her because she was the first princess, and didn't want to get anything from her, he also cherished them very much.
She said: "It's not that I have to recruit him as a son-in-law, but I like him very much. When I see him with you, I can't help laughing, and I feel happy."
She smiled and said: "If you don't ask, I won't say that marriage is the order of my parents. I don't know what kind of son-in-law my father will choose for me."
Man Bao asked: "Don't you ask?"
Mingda shook his head slightly, but nodded again: "Father will tell me, I don't need to ask."
Man Bao thought for a while, but couldn't quite understand, "You are so careless, but that is the person who will be with you day and night for the rest of your life."
She said: "I can't do it. To live together in the future, we must first look good, otherwise we will be bored in the future."
Mingda couldn't help bursting out laughing, and asked, "So you chose Bai Shan instead of Bai Erlang?"
Man Bao widened his eyes, and said in disbelief: "What are you talking about, how could I choose Bai Er?"
It was simply unimaginable.
Mingda thought about it for a while, and found it unimaginable, she couldn't help laughing out loud, and asked her, "But in the eyes of outsiders, the conditions between their cousins are actually similar, although Bai Shan's family background is stronger than Bai Er's. Some, but Bai Shan lost his father when he was young, and Bai Er's parents and brothers are all complete. This alone makes him much better than Bai Shan. In terms of friendship, you knew each other earlier, and you are in the same village. Why did you choose Bai Shan instead of him? ?”
Man Bao opened his mouth slightly and was speechless, "Well, how do you say that? It's something I've never thought about before."
Ming Da said: "Yeah, it's something I never thought about, and I never thought about marrying him, I just think I like him."
"Then have you thought about it now?" Man Bao said, "You must have thought about it now."
Mingda didn't deny it, and said with a smile: "Since it's been mentioned, I can't help but think about it, and my thoughts only take a moment."
"That's right, I had a big shake just now." Man Bao complained, and then asked: "Then what do you think?"
Mingda smiled and said, "Let's let it take its course."
"I don't believe it. You have never been an obedient person. Why are you so obedient now?"
"I've only heard people say that Sister Changyu is disobedient, and this is the first time I've heard people say that I am disobedient."
"That's different. Princess Changyu has a fierce face and complains, but she never says no to His Majesty and Empress' arrangements; but you are different." No matter how docile Ming Da behaved, he had a lot of ideas in his heart.
Mingda saw her look like breaking the casserole to ask the end, so he took off his shoes, sat cross-legged on the couch and said, "Okay, it's okay to tell you."
She said: "Father said he wanted to marry me, but he looked at several families and was not satisfied. I figured it out myself. It is impossible to make an appointment this year."
And the queen mother's health is even worse. If she still can't make an appointment after this year, then she will have to wait at least two more years before getting married. After a lot of work, it may be three years before the engagement is made.
So when guessing that the marriage might not be finalized, Mingda naturally wouldn't take the initiative to mention her care for Bai Erlang.
Besides, "Three years may not sound like a long time, but it will be a long time in the future. Bai Cheng will be crowned by then, right?"
Man Bao said: "Brother Bai got married after reaching the crown, this age is not very old."
Mingda paused after listening, and then said: "Okay, there is one more..."
She said softly: "Three years later, I don't even know if I'm still alive or not."
Man Bao was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "What do you mean, although you are weaker, it's not that bad, right?"
Mingda smiled wryly and said: "This is you. In fact, many people inside and outside the palace know that I have been deficient since I was born, and I am better than Yin or Yin from Mr. Yin's family."
She said: "He and I are two well-known sick people in and out of the palace. It looks better now, but I don't think it can be cured of the insufficiency that was born with it."
"So I'm not sure what kind of son-in-law Father wants to choose for me," Ming Da said, "Is it to collude, win over, or just for the short time I have left in the future?"
Man Bao didn't expect her to think so much, and said after a while, "No wonder you are always out of energy, and you think too much."
"Why don't you ask His Majesty?" She said, "He loves you so much, I think he will discuss it with you."
Mingda shook his head, "I don't want to embarrass my father, so just wait and see what kind of consort my father wants to choose. If it's the first two, I won't mention it. If it's the last one, I have to think about it." .”
Man Bao: "Why do you have to think about it?"
The chance of listening to her junior brother like this is very small, only one in six possibilities.
Ming Da said: "Naturally, I have to think about it. If my health is not good at that time, the front foot will marry in, and the back foot will die. Wouldn't it mean that I will become a widower for nothing?"
Man Bao: "...you think too much."
So when they returned to the Chongwen Museum, Man Bao and Bai Erlang said: "Ming Da said to think about it, she doesn't want to make you a widower."
Bai Erlang stared, "Are you going to ask her?"
"Always ask people what they mean before you go to court, right?" Man Bao said: "But now that I know, she doesn't hate you, and she likes you a little bit, so you can work hard towards the emperor."
It's the order of the parents, so it's natural to ask for the consent of the parents first before attacking the Lord, isn't that fair and aboveboard
Bai Erlang became worried, "How hard is this? I can't see His Majesty either."
Man Bao thought for a while and said, "I see you occasionally, how about I send you a message?"
Bai Erlang: "What can I say to Your Majesty?"
That's right, she often has nothing to say.
