The Unkind Human Chapter 36

The news of Princess Fu Yi's marriage spread quietly in the palace. The emperor did not take it to heart because Wei Zhan was not in the imperial city, so he did not notify the Ministry of Internal Affairs to arrange the matter. The empress dowager intervened in the matter for Charles Chu. She herself did not expect it and did not say anything in front of others. However, the news of Princess Fu Yi's marriage to Wei Zhan spread quickly after the emperor sat in Ci'an Palace for a while.

Princess Fu Yi and Linda Li Ning were at a loss when they heard the letter. The mother and daughter had been carefully and filially treating the Empress Dowager with the hope that Fu Yi would have a good marriage in the future. They did not expect that she would so hastily assign her to a Qingji Duwei.

Princess Fuyi knew her identity. Her mother was just a Linda Li of the emperor and the previous palace maid. She had no family background and no support. Naturally, she did not dare to compare her marriage with those of the previous princesses. However, she did not expect that her marriage would be so hasty.

Lady Grace was a person without any plans. After hearing the news, she burst into tears and could not think of any ideas. She had already asked people to inquire about it. The family of Wei Zhan, the light horse commander, had fallen into decline several generations ago. The only high-ranking official in the Wei family now was Wei Zhan, and there was no news of any other capable father, uncle or brother. Although his family background was not low, his property was limited. After all, Fu Yi was the emperor's princess, and it was too unfair for her to marry into the Wei family.

Fuyi was not born to the empress, and Ning Guiren was not a favored Linda Li. According to the old rules of Dachu, only the legitimate princesses born to the empress would be granted a princess's mansion when they got married. Even if there were exceptions, it was either because the princess's mother was of noble birth and high status, or because the princess was deeply loved by the emperor, and the emperor would not let his daughter suffer any grievances. Fuyi had nothing to do with any of these.
