The Blind Maiden
28. Matchmaking

They boarded the Horse-drawn carriage and entered the Palace to face the Emperor but this time was different from that day.

This was just a call for them, specifically for the abandoned Su Family. He died in the War and brought much glory to the Empire.

Thus, the Palace decided to keep Abu Su Bei in the Moon Goddess Temple that was in the North of the Palace, which meant the Su Family was given access to come continuously to the Palace Courtyard.

Especially to pray to Su Bei, everything was very tense when wanting to enter the Palace.

Su Yun held his hand as he descended and led him into the Palace, then kneeled before the Emperor.

"May Your Majesty be blessed with abundant sustenance and the age of a thousand years. " Su Family Speech.

"You guys have finally gone through this period of mourning, it is time to release Su Bei. Huft, I know that this word is useless. Merely, I brought you here because I wanted to discuss Su Lian's engagement to the Crown Prince, Ling Dan. " Said the Emperor.

"Your Majesty has an ocean-wide heart, these lowly of us do not deserve this much attention. " Said Madam Su prostrating before the Emperor.

"Stand, Lady Su. Otherwise then I wouldn't dare to face Su Bei in the underworld, I was already with him when we were 10 years old, he followed me with his honesty and courage. Now that he's gone, I have to take care of all of you. " Said the Emperor.

Then they were left to sit down, as it was the Son of the concubine then Su Qionglin sat at the very end.

"According to a good date, Miss Su and the Crown Prince can engage on the 27th day of the month from 5 to 7 am. " Say the astrologer who has been invited to see a good day.

"Good, there are still 14 days to prepare. How about the wedding ?" Ask Emperor.

"For marriage, it will take 15 days. The best is the 11th of next month at 10 to 12 p.m. " Say the fortune teller.

"Well, what about you, Mrs Su ?" Ask Emperor.

"If Your Majesty has already decided then we will just follow suit, it is our honor to be able to enter the Palace and become the Crown Princess. " Say Mrs Su.

Su Lian's own face was rather grim as she actually did not want to get married, but after a rethink then her own father wanted to see her marry the Crown Prince.

The person chosen by his father then it must be a good person, so Su Lian was trying to accept her destiny.

"Yes, then for the second Miss Su, not having a fiance yet ? " Ask the Emperor.

"Izin answered the Emperor, this servant has not had him. " Su Qionglin replied gently.

"Previously, Su Bei praised you highly that you have high courtesy and morals. I have to see who suits you in this palace. " Said the Emperor.

"I'm sorry, Your Honor. But, according to this servant Su Qionglin was no match for the Palace. He had a problem on his view, inappropriate for the Palace people. In addition, she was also the daughter of a lowly Concubine. His fear would cause an uncomfortable conjecture for the Imperial People. " Say Lady Su bluntly.

Su Qionglin who heard this calmly tried to hold back her cries, it turned out that in the presence of others she was so low, so despicable.

If she was this sick, let alone her mother. Apparently, his mother was a very strong person. But, in the end it was also subverted with all that.

"Your Majesty, what Madam Su said is correct. This servant. " Su Qionglin said with a somewhat trembling tone.

He needed to take his breath in deeply and hold back so as not to cry and roar. Everything was too horrible for him, why did he have to be born blind ?

Why can't he live a normal life like everyone else ? An unbearable pain filled his heart. It was as if thousands of knives pierced his chest and left open wounds that were bleeding.

The atmosphere became awkward, getting words that were actually not worth saying made the Emperor somewhat confused.

In fact, Su Yun and Su Lian moved uneasily and pulled the sleeves of their mother's clothes.

Those who did not feel alone felt uneasy, especially if it was Su Qionglin who went through all of this.

"Madam Su need not be that strict, the bloodline is not of much importance if it is not a core descendant. I think there is a man worthy of Miss Su. " Said Emperor Ling.

"It was General Ling, Miss Su had an ocean-wide patience but Ling Yi was not very patient. It will be a suitable combination. " Continue Emperor Ling.

Hearing this made Su Qionglin feel that he was struck by lightning, he immediately fell limp and could not say another word.

Given how the strangulation Ling Yi had thrown at her the last time.they met, could not imagine that she would have to meet that person continuously in the future.

"Your Majesty, General Ling has a noble status. It is not appropriate for me to be his official wife. " Su Qionglin said.

"Just calm down, Ling Yi will not take the Concubine. He would rather collect swords and weapons than women. He can be said to be a loyal person if you are looking for someone who will not turn away from you. " Said Emperor Ling.

"Your Majesty, General Ling has thousands of achievements while I. " Su Qionglin said.

"Alright, don't refuse just yet. We will call Ling Yi and ask for her reaction whether she agrees or not, otherwise I will be confused to find which single man in this Palace is for the virtuous Miss Su. " Said the Emperor.

Su Qionglin gripped her dress and cold sweat flowed profusely, she really could not help her fear.

This entire lifetime, he only had this fear of Ling Yi. If someone else then he would assume, if unlucky then he would die.

But, if with Ling Yi then he was afraid even if he wanted to die, then he could not get it.

Before long, the door opened and showed Ling Yi wearing clothes usually showing great good looks.

Having such top-class good looks made Ling Yi dazzle many people.

"Your Majesty, why are you calling me ?" Ask Ling Yi.
