Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1154

Capítulo 1154: Chapter 1148: Marriage Alliance

Seeing her daughter’s anxious expression, Ye Yingnan quickly patted her daughter’s hand: “Don’t worry, your mother is not so easy to deal with. If my daughter is to marry, naturally, she should marry the most outstanding man in their Imperial Family! But if it really can’t be done… you can’t blame your mother! This is all for our family’s survival!”

Seeing her daughter bite her lower lip, Ye Yingnan continued, “There are advantages to a husband with crippled legs… in the future, he will be at your mercy!”

“Mother…” Ye Yingnan’s daughter grasped her mother’s hand, glanced at her anxious but unassertive father standing nearby, then walked aside with her mother, whispering, “Mother, I have an idea…”

“Go on…” Ye Yingnan nodded.

“Mother, you’ve always said that a woman going through pregnancy and childbirth is like stepping into the gates of hell. You said… if I could marry the Emperor of Zhou’s younger brother, and this Emperor of Zhou couldn’t safely deliver a child, if it truly resulted in two lives lost, Mother… who do you think the throne of Zhou would fall to?”

Ye Yingnan’s daughter whispered to her mother, knowing that her grandmother had many of these silent and unnoticed methods. Otherwise, while her grandmother was alive, it would have been impossible for her to remain unshaken in a low position in the Ye family, allowing her grandfather to believe she was virtuous and gentle, always honored and favored.

Ye Yingnan was startled, turning her eyes to her daughter, still looking like a young girl, and unexpectedly let out a low laugh: “I didn’t realize you had such ambition!”

She hurriedly took on a frightened look, stepped back a little, and saluted her mother, saying, “Daughter is just expressing it for Mother’s consideration, for the lives of our family of four and for future glory. If Mother thinks it’s impractical, just consider it nonsense from your daughter.”

“Madam, the people who came to invite us have been waiting outside for half a day!” The Governor timidly urged.

Ye Yingnan patted her daughter’s hand, tidied her clothes, took on a lofty air, looked askance at her husband, and said, “Let’s go!”

This is, after all, the Governor’s Mansion, the home of the Governor’s wife, who believes herself to be a key figure in aiding Bai Qingyan in capturing Yecheng Pass. Even before Bai Qingyan arrived, she had already seated herself at the main seat, adjusting her sleeves.

The Governor wanted his wife to get up but didn’t dare be too forceful, only standing beside her, tugging at her sleeve, whispering, “Get up quickly! The Emperor will be here soon, even if we have a method, being so rude, what if we’re dragged out and executed!”

Ye Yingnan glared at her cowardly husband: “Look at your lack of ambition, we’re in our own home! And besides… she isn’t here yet, is she?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Qingyan and Xiao Ruohai had already arrived at the front hall.

The Governor, ignoring his fear of his wife, pulled her up and stepped forward to salute: “Greetings, Your Majesty!”
