Chapter 114 Help Shi Hui find a wife
When the Queen Mother saw the Queen sigh, she became curious.
"We were talking fine, why are you sighing?"
"Tingxi is an affectionate person, unlike Jingcheng. In addition to Xiaowan, he has three concubines serving him." The queen explained.
These words instantly reminded the Queen Mother, and after thinking for a moment, she became serious.
"Tingxi does love Xiyue very much, but he is a prince after all, the King of Yan. It is impossible for him to have only one woman by his side, because he shoulders the responsibility of continuing the royal family's lineage. Xiyue alone cannot do it."
"Mother, that makes sense. I think so too, but I'm afraid Tingxi will object." The queen looked embarrassed.
"Is it his turn to oppose these things? As a prince and Prince of Yan, he should be more aware of his responsibilities and obligations." The Queen Mother immediately retorted.
"Mother, but I am his stepmother after all. There are some things I really don't know how to say so that Tingxi can understand my good intentions." The queen sighed again, looking helpless.
"I know your difficulties. Let me take care of this matter. I will analyze the pros and cons with Tingxi." The Queen Mother responded readily.
The queen was overjoyed when she heard this, but she also looked self-blaming, "I've made you worry, your daughter-in-law. I'm worried."
"Relax, Tingxi has been my child since he was a child. It would be more appropriate for me to persuade him," the Queen Mother comforted.
"Yes, thank you for your concern, mother." The queen responded respectfully.
"What are you talking about?" The Queen Mother smiled helplessly.
The queen felt much more relieved when she saw that the matter had been resolved smoothly. Looking at the queen mother, a hint of success flashed in her eyes.
……
After Ling Xiyue returned to Prince Yan's Mansion, she felt tired and went back to her room to lie down.
He Tingxi and Shi Hui went to the study.
After closing the door, He Tingxi stood up and walked to the desk, opened the drawer, took out a bunch of keys and handed them to Shi Hui.
"This is the key to Ruyi Courtyard. From now on, Ruyi Courtyard will be yours to live in."
Shi Hui looked at the key in front of him, but he didn't take it. Instead, he looked at He Tingxi with a puzzled look.
"Your Highness, why did you give Ruyuanyuan to me?"
Seeing that Shi Hui didn't take it, He Tingxi stuffed the key directly into Shi Hui's hand, and Shi Hui had no choice but to take it.
"Once my leg disease is announced to be cured, you will move out of my yard and live in Ruyi Courtyard." He Tingxi ordered.
When Shi Hui heard this, his heart suddenly turned cold and he felt uncomfortable.
"Your Highness, do you mean that you think I'm in the way? You don't want me to bother you, right?"
He Tingxi was stunned. He looked at Shi Hui in surprise. When he saw Shi Hui's uncomfortable expression, he reacted and hurriedly explained.
"Shi Hui, you misunderstood me. I didn't think you were a nuisance. I just thought that you were getting married soon and it would be inconvenient for you to live in my yard."
"I'm getting married soon? When is the marriage? How come I don't know about it?" Shi Hui was surprised and happy when he heard it, and asked anxiously.
He Tingxi was stunned for a moment when he saw Shi Hui's expression change so quickly. Then, he smiled and said, "Have you forgotten that I told you a few days ago that I would help you find a wife? I will find one according to your requirements."
"Your Highness, do you mean to say that you have found it?" Shi Hui instantly became excited and a smile appeared on his face.
"Yes, I found it. I've found five for you to choose from." He Tingxi smiled.
"You have five girls for me to choose from? Your Highness, you are very considerate."
Shi Hui was so excited that he didn't know what to do. After a pause, he continued to ask: "Your Highness, when can I go to see them?"
"Then when do you want to meet them?" He Tingxi asked with a smile.
"Uh, can it be today?" Shi Hui asked weakly. He couldn't wait any longer.
Seeing this, He Tingxi just smiled and said, "I knew you were anxious. I have already arranged it. They will arrive at the main hall at 3 p.m. today."
"We can see him at 3 p.m." Shi Hui couldn't stop smiling.
"Well. At that time, you should be ready and dress nicely to leave a good impression on them." He Tingxi instructed.
"That's a must." Shi Hui responded readily.
The thought of it made him excited, but after calming down, Shi Hui couldn't help feeling confused.
"Your Highness, are these five women you found willing? Although I really want to get married, I don't want to force any woman. If they are unwilling, I will not marry them." Shi Hui suddenly became very serious.
He Tingxi looked at Shi Hui's serious expression. He was very satisfied with Shi Hui's words and he smiled slightly.
"Shi Hui, you can rest assured about this. You don't trust those women, but you also don't trust me as a person? Am I the kind of person who forces others?"
Shi Hui was stunned for a moment, but soon reacted. His serious expression immediately changed. He smiled innocently and said, "Your Highness is right. I made a mistake in my words."
"They were all very excited when they heard that the person they were going to marry was you. I picked out five girls who best meet your requirements from among the girls who like you and gave them to you to choose from," He Tingxi continued.
Shi Hui was so happy when he heard this that he couldn't suppress the upward smile on his face.
"Am I that good? Why do so many women like me?" Shi Hui said hypocritically.
He Tingxi saw all of Shi Hui's little thoughts and smiled slightly.
"You are tall, handsome, strong, and skilled, and you are also my confidant. I ask you, which woman would not be moved?" He Tingxi praised seriously.
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Hui's face was full of smiles, and no matter how he bit his lips, he couldn't hide it.
"Your Highness, you are joking." Shi Hui could only lower his head to cover up.
"Go ahead, get ready and leave a good impression on the girl who likes you. Be at the main hall before 3 p.m." He Tingxi said with a smile.
"Yes. I promise to arrive early." Shi Hui responded readily and then left the study.
Watching Shi Hui leave with a smile on his face, He Tingxi also smiled with relief.
He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue had lunch together. During the meal, He Tingxi told Ling Xiyue about Shi Hui.
Ling Xiyue was a little excited. She was very curious about the appearance of the five women.
"Your Highness, what type of woman does Shi Hui like?"
When asked by Ling Xiyue, He Tingxi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly, he didn't know how to explain it.
Seeing that He Tingxi was slow to speak, Ling Xiyue became even more curious.
"What's wrong? Is it that hard to tell? Does Shi Hui have a special hobby?"
Faced with Ling Xiyue's questioning, He Tingxi had to speak, but he did not give a direct answer.
"It's not really a special hobby, I just told you that you might not be happy about it."
"Would I be unhappy? Why would I be unhappy? No matter which one Shi Hui likes, it doesn't affect me?" Ling Xiyue said with a smile. She hadn't reacted yet.
"Since you said so, I will tell you the truth. Shi Hui likes Sumei's type." He Tingxi finally spoke. He lowered his head slightly and deliberately avoided looking at Ling Xiyue, worried that Ling Xiyue would glare at him.
