Chapter 503: Chapter 503 You Can’t Marry Her

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Sun Miaoke heard that her cousin brother would beg the Emperor to marry her, she was both worried and happy.

She felt that she had not misjudged him.

However, when she heard her aunt’s objection, she was shocked.

She did not expect that her aunt, who had always been kind and amiable to her, would suddenly oppose their marriage.

Mrs. Sun shook her to ensure that Sun Miaoke returned to her senses before saying earnestly, “Miaoke, if your aunt’s attitude is that firm, then you only have one way out, and that is to elope.

“However, the consequences of that will be serious.

“First, if you escape, you’ll be considered dead. You’ll have to hide your names for the rest of your lives.

“If things don’t go well in the future, you two might blame and hate each other. In the end, you two will end up miserable.

“Second, if you are captured, what awaits you will be death, which will definitely implicate both our families.

“Even if the Emperor is merciful and doesn’t confiscate our homes, it will still affect the marriage of our clan’s younger generation.

“As for your aunt…”

Mrs. Sun sighed and said, “Don’t blame her.

“From her point of view, she’s only stopping you two from being together for your cousin’s and the Yan family’s futures.

“So, in my opinion, you should just cut it off. Cut it off cleanly.”

“Mother…” Sun Miaoke threw herself into her mother’s arms and cried.

Seeing this, Mrs. Sun could only pat her back to comfort her.

After a while, Sun Miaoke raised her head and said, “Didn’t Father say there were still two days? 1 will wait for two more days. If there is still no result after that, I will listen to your arrangements.”

Mrs. Sun was stunned for a moment. In the end, she nodded and said, “You should sleep. No matter what, you have to get your health back first.”

“Alright.” Seeing that her mother didn’t object, Sun Miaoke heaved a sigh of relief and lay down.

Mrs. Sun waited for her to fall asleep before leaving the room. She then instructed Qing Tao to take good care of Sun Miaoke before turning around and leaving.

After dinner, Yan Zhiwu went to the study to find Lord Yan.

When Lord Yan saw him enter, he pointed to the stool beside him and finished writing something.

He waited for Yan Zhiwu to sit down and asked, “Are you here because of you and Miao Ke?”

“Did Mother tell you?” Yan Zhiwu nodded and asked,

“Like I said, my opinion is the same as your mother’s.”

“Why, we…” Yan Zhiwu had just opened his mouth when Lord Yan raised his hand and interrupted, “Your mother already said most of everything, so I won’t say anything about the future of you and our family.

“I just want to ask you a question. Why do you think the Emperor would bequeath Sun Miaoke to the Third Prince and your sister to the Seventh Prince?”

Yan Zhiwu was stunned by the question. He slowly shook his head and asked with a puzzled expression, “It can’t be. The relationship between the Yan and the Sun families is good, but it’s not to the extent of wearing the same underwear.”

“Wrong. Although your uncle is just a scholar, he has a teacher-student relationship with the Seventh Prince. Also, he has cultivated many students over the years.

“In addition to your grandfather’s position as the commander of the Nine Gates,

“Do you think the Emperor would be at ease handing over all these connections to the Seventh Prince?”

“Father, did someone say something to you?” Yan Zhiwu looked at him in shock and asked.

Lord Yan replied unhappily, “Although your father was born in the army, I have been in office for more than half my life. Moreover, 1 am one of the Emperor’s confidants. You don’t really think that I am some idiot who doesn’t know politics, do you?”

He paused momentarily and continued, “Go back and study this web of relationships carefully. The Emperor’s bestowment of marriage is not without reason.”

“So you can’t marry Sun Miaoke; she can only marry the Third Prince..”
