Emperor Jing Xuan looked at him deeply. “Prime Minister Guo, do you know what you’re saying? Lingxi is your biological granddaughter. I’m afraid…”
Prime Minister Guo said firmly, “As long as it’s for His Majesty and the Great
Zhou, the Guo family is willing to do anything!”
The news quickly returned to the Prime Minister’s Estate.
Before Guo Lingxi could recover from the grief of losing her mother and brother, she suddenly heard that she was going to make a marriage alliance.
She felt sick.
She went to Prime Minister Guo’s courtyard and waited until he returned.
“Grandpa! I don’t want to marry!”
Prime Minister Guo glanced at the servants behind Guo Lingxi. The servants fell silent and hurriedly lowered their heads.
Prime Minister Guo brought her to the study.
“This is His Majesty’s decree. There’s nothing I can do.”
Guo Lingxi said unhappily, “Aren’t we sending a princess to get married? I’m not a princess! ”
Prime Minister Guo looked at her. “You’ll be soon.”
Guo Lingxi was stunned.
She would be taken in by His Majesty as an adopted daughter and have the ident.i.ty of a princess and a treasure seal.
In the past, she might have been overjoyed, but now, being a princess was a hot potato.
Guo Lingxi bit her lip and said unwillingly, “Isn’t it Hui An? Isn’t there still Hui
An? Why did it become me?”
Prime Minister Guo said earnestly, “You’re a county princess. It’s almost the same as the princess.”
Guo Lingxi could not listen to anything. “He doesn’t want his daughter to marry into another country, so he came to harm our Guo family’s daughter?”
Prime Minister Guo’s expression darkened. “Shut up! Don’t let me hear these treacherous words again!”
Guo Lingxi was indignant. She entered the palace again and saw the Grand Empress Dowager at Zhaoyang Hall.
She Imelt in front of Bai Xihe and begged bitterly, “Auntie, you have to save Lingxi…’
Bai Xihe covered most of her novel with the Book of Poetry. “I’m afraid I can’t do anything about this.”
Guo Lingxi knelt in front of Bai Xihe and grabbed her sleeve with both hands.
She said with tears in her eyes, “No, Auntie… You’re the Grand Empress Dowager… As long as you speak to His Majesty… His Majesty will definitely take back his orders… Didn’t you ask His Majesty to confer Lingxi as a county princess back then?”
Bai Xihe said, “These are two different things. Anointing a county princess is a family matter, and marriage is a national matter. It can’t be mixed up.”
Guo Lingxi said sadly, “But why must it be me…”
Bai Xihe was also very puzzled.
She had clearly heard that the person who was chosen for the marriage alliance was Princess Hui An.
She looked at Guo Lingxi, who was crying uncontrollably, and had an answer.
If that was the case, she would be even more unable to stop Guo Lingxi from marrying.
Guo Lingxi choked and said, “Auntie, Auntie, save Lingxi… Can you let someone else go? Since Lingxi can replace the princess, so can others…”
Bai Xihe said softly, “Lingxi, not everyone is qualified to be the candidate for the marriage. You’re a county princess and the daughter of the Prime Minister. Your status is important, so you can go for the marriage on behalf of the princess.”
Guo Lingxi’s mind flashed. “She! She can do it!”
Guo Lingxi was so excited that her eyes lit up. “Su Daya! Su Daya is the daughter of the Qin family! Her status is comparable to mine and she knows medicine. Wouldn’t she be able to…”
“She’s already engaged.” Bai Xihe’s voice turned colder.
Guo Lingxi did not notice that Bai Xihe’s att.i.tude had changed at all. “The engagement can be canceled!”
Bai Xihe said calmly, “Alright, putting aside the engagement, she has the military power of the entire Qin family behind her. Are you asking her to marry into the Western Jin because you think the throne of the Great Zhou Emperor is too stable?” “Auntie, I…’
“I’m tired. You can leave.”
Su Xiaoxiao had been sleeping early recently. She heard that this matter happened the next day.
“Guo Lingxi?”
Su Xiaoxiao was not surprised.
Prime Minister Guo, that sly old fox, only had power in his heart and no sense of kinship. Something had happened to Guo Huan, making him a taboo to Emperor Jing Xuan, He urgently needed a chance to make a contribution.
As long as it was not Jingning and Hui An, the others had nothing to do with her.
She went back to her business.
Other people were embroidering wedding dresses, preparing dowry, and choosing an accompanying house when they were approaching the wedding. She was studying the arm, studying the arm, and studying the arm!
During dinner, the arm was on the table.
When she slept, the arms were on the bed.
When taking a shower… Well, she wasn’t sure if it could get wet, so she convinced herself not to take a bath with it.
The maidservants were frightened at first, but they were no longer surprised.
After a period of research, Su Xiaoxiao felt that this arm might not be a simulated arm, but a bionic arm.
Actually, in her previous life, someone had already developed a bionic arm. It could be reconnected to the tactile nerves through a nerve transplant technique, allowing the brain to directly control the arm.
It was only because its technology was not mature enough and it was very expensive to build that it could not be popularized on the market.
This arm was clearly much more advanced than the bionic arm in her previous life.
First of all, it was more beautiful.
She was really obsessed with looks.
“Xing’er, where’s Sixth Young Master?” Su Xiaoxiao asked the maidservant in the room.
Wei Liulang lived in the Qin family as the martial arts teacher of the three little ones.
The maidservant said, “He went to the garden with a few young masters.”
The capital in June was too hot. The three little ones stuck out their tongues. Wei Liulang brought them out to row the boat.
As he rowed, he caught a glimpse of a sneaky figure at the top of the wall.
He pulled the boat ash.o.r.e and called the three little ones up for the servants to watch. He went to block a certain fellow who was halfway over the wall.
“You can’t meet before the wedding,” Wei Liulang said. “Bear with it for a few more days.”
Wei Ting raised his eyebrows and said, “Sixth Brother, if you can come, why can’t I?”
Wei Liulang glanced at him- “I’m different- Grandmother asked me to come
over to guard against you.”
The corners of Wei Ting’s mouth twitched as he said coldly, “I’m not here to see her, I want to see my sons. I haven’t seen them in a long time. They must miss me very much.”
Wei Liulang went to scoop up Xiaohu, who was peeling a lotus seed pod. “Xiaohu, do you miss Dad?”
Xiaohu had not seen Wei Ting for a month. When he heard the word Dad, Xiao Hu was dumbfounded. His expression seemed to be saying, “What is Dad? Can it be eaten?”
Wei Ting was speechless.
Wei Ting climbed the wall from the other side.
The man in white stood on the wall and looked down at him. “Is Young Master going down himself, or should I kick Young Master down?”
Wei Ting spat, “Baili Chen, you’re ruthless!”
When Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and came to look for Wei Liulang, Wei Ting had already been dragged away from the ground by Baili Chen like a sandbag. His face was filled with despair.
“Sixth Brother.” Su Xiaoxiao greeted him.
Wei Liulang nodded slightly. “Xiaoxiao.”
Su Xiaoxiao opened the box and showed him a shiny golden arm.
Wei Liulang was stunned. “This is…”
“Your new arm!” Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, “It’s divided into several stages. The first stage requires you to wear the acceptance cavity. After you adapt, you can remove the acceptance cavity and I can perform an operation to connect to neurons. If you succeed, you will have a brand new arm. How is it? Do you like
Wei Liulang did not understand professional jargon, but he roughly understood that this was a new arm his sister-in-law had made for him.
He took one look and his heart pounded.
He… liked it too much..
