Chapter 1436: Su Jinpa's Views on Love

Chapter 649: Business TaxChapter 1436: Su Jinpa's View on Love

Su Jinpa looked at Zhao Qinglan and replied calmly, "Whether willingly or not, since I have married him, he is my heaven, my whole world."

"A husband is the head of a wife, that's what I was taught from a young age: at home, one obeys one's father, and after marriage, one obeys one's husband."

This made Zhao Qinglan smile. She sneered, “I wouldn't have thought that Su Jinpa, the number one talented woman in Beijing, would still be such a virtuous woman.”

Su Jinpa heard the sarcasm in Zhao Qinglan's words and replied calmly, "Your Majesty needn't be like this. I yearn for freedom and dislike being buried within these palace walls my entire life, but I cannot rebel. There aren't that many stories in this world where people defy fate and escape for freedom."

“The prince once told me that after I left the General's Mansion protection, I wouldn't be able to lift my arms or carry anything. Unless I went to a brothel and sold my beauty, I would either be married off as a concubine or kidnapped by bandits to become their wife.”

"I think what he said makes sense. Both of these paths are inferior to becoming a princess, so I've accepted my fate."

"I have my own pursuits, but that doesn't mean I'll do irrational things for those fleeting illusions. To marry someone and devote oneself to them for life is my fundamental bottom line."

Su Jinpa was speaking, Zhao Qinglan and Zhao Rui were both listening.

Two women heard the same words spoken by Su Jinpa, but their feelings and mindsets were worlds apart.

Zhao Rui only felt admiration and envy.

She admired Su Jinpa's courage and envied her good fortune.

Having chosen the same man, she could only be a concubine for the rest of her life.

And Su Jinping's starting point was a destination she couldn't even reach.

And because she had initially sought refuge with Zhao Xuanji, Zhao Rui knew very well that there was no chance for her and Li Chen to share a life of mutual support and love, they could never be together.

That man, seemingly saying nothing, is actually quite stingy.

Even without mentioning him, doesn't he himself have that hurdle in his heart

Otherwise, why would you go to such lengths every time you see him, fawning over him like that It's so humiliating. There's no need for it.

Her thoughts were swirling, and the sensitivity of a young girl came rushing to the surface. Zhao Rui felt her heart filled with a complex mix of emotions.

While Zhao Rui only felt admiration and envy, Zhao Qinglan experienced a multitude of emotions.

She couldn't describe her feelings at that moment.

I feel overwhelmed, with a thousand thoughts swirling in my head. They're tangled and I can't seem to untangle them.

Like a tangled mess of yarn, it's impossible to find any order or pattern. It's just a chaotic jumble.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed the complexity in her heart. Zhao Qinglan didn't continue the topic. She said calmly, "Whether you believe it or not, this has nothing to do with me."

Almost immediately following Zhao Qinglan's words, Su Jinpa said, "Perhaps it has nothing to do with the Empress, but it must have something to do with Zhao Xuanji."

Zhao Qinglan's eyes darkened.

At this moment, as a queen, she was actually speechless when questioned by Su Jinpa, who held the status of a crown princess.

She knew that if Li Chen was truly assassinated, it would inevitably be linked to her father.

There's no mystery here, it was way too obvious.

But even so, the words Zhao Qinglan had to say.

"At this time, the situation is chaotic, and any party could potentially stir up trouble to take advantage of the chaos. Without evidence, how can you dare to slander the current national father-in-law" Wan Jiaojiao and Xiao Chuanzi were calm.Juehui frowned slightly, subconsciously feeling something was wrong, but the arrow was already nocked and he couldn't afford to think too much."My apologies, e...
