The best way for the Crown Prince to build ties with my father is through marriage relations. But since my father has no legitimate daughter, and I am only a lowly concubine’s daughter, entering the Crown Prince’s residence would at most make me a concubine, not even a side consort. I don’t know if I’m being overly cautious, but watching my aunt, I really don’t want to be a concubine. Even if I were to marry a farmer, I would rather be his first wife and not a concubine,” Dong Tingyun said with reddened eyes. “Moreover, anyone with military power should avoid forming alliances too early. If I were to enter the Crown Prince’s residence, even if father didn’t form an alliance, others would think he did.”
