Chapter 1476: Chapter 1476: Choose a Good Marital Family

But if his son wanted to know, he couldn’t really refuse him, could he? Perhaps Lin Caisang simply wished for there to be more topics between father and son?

Maybe speaking more could indeed make his son acknowledge him more as a father? If that was the case, he would be willing to talk endlessly about the Illusion Continent.

...

In Jianan City, within the royal palace.

The emperor had not seen his sister for a long time. Once she was out of his sight, she was like a clay ox entering the sea, completely untraceable.

Finally, today he saw her and immediately instructed his servants to set up a family banquet.

"Pfft—"

The fine wine, just sampled, was spat out in an instant.

Not only the emperor, but even the empress and the two princes looked at the Elder Princess with shocked faces after hearing her words.

"Aunt, what did you just say? Did I not hear clearly?" The Eldest Prince’s wine glass shook in his hand, the wine spilling over onto his own hand without him even noticing.

"You heard correctly, my imperial brother, imperial sister-in-law, you also heard correctly. I... have a pair of children," the Elder Princess laid down her chopsticks, her gaze seriously sweeping over the faces in front of her as she repeated each word to them a second time.

"Gulp."

The Second Prince couldn’t help but swallow hard.

"Then... where are they?"

Please forgive the emperor for being somewhat in shock; he could only stutter out these three words from his mouth.

"Sister, you’re not suggesting that because you knew that person was scheming against you, you... lost your children?" The empress pondered carefully and felt that her speculation was very plausible.

How loathsome that person was, to deceive the Elder Princess of Liang Kingdom like that!

It was a mercy they hadn’t killed him these years, allowing him to cling to a wretched life, truly a leniency on their part.

But at least she now understood why, despite such loathing at the time, the Elder Princess did not allow the emperor to execute that man. If it was because they had children together, it would make sense.

"Where is imperial sister-in-law’s mind wandering to?"

The Elder Princess chuckled upon hearing her speculation.

But thinking about it now actually gave her a fright; if she really had children with that man, what a terrifying reality that would be.

Fortunately...

"My twins are now fourteen years old, and next year Sangsang will come of age; it’s time to find her a suitable husband," the Elder Princess said.

The emperor: "..."

Could he think this way—if it weren’t for his niece reaching marriageable age, would his sister have continued to keep from him, her own brother, the fact that she had children?

"So, what is your plan..."

"The child has sought a marriage on her own, only... it’s a bit troublesome," the Elder Princess said seriously as she looked at the emperor.

Seeing the look in her eyes, the emperor started to develop a headache.

"How troublesome? In Liang Kingdom, whichever family you wish to choose for a Commandery Princess, regardless of how noble, isn’t it just a matter of your word?" the empress said.

Indeed, that’s what was said. The royal family of Liang Kingdom was not like other kingdoms’ royal families; they were inherently close.

Since she was the Elder Princess’s child, then she would be a Commandery Princess of Liang Kingdom. What could be so difficult about finding a marriage for her?

"The man she fancies is not from Liang Kingdom, which is why it’s difficult," the Elder Princess said softly.

"He’s not from Liang Kingdom? That’s easy to deal with. Aunt, if it’s difficult for you, I’ll do it—I can just capture the man and bring him to Jianan City," the Second Prince said to the Elder Princess.
