When Duanmu Chen saw Duanmu Yi again, it was still in the Imperial Study. He felt that Duanmu Yi seemed to be in a good mood, yet feigned calmness.
This confirmed Duanmu Chen's belief that something significant had happened.
However, Duanmu Chen did not ask about it, because he knew that if Duanmu Yi wanted to share, he would. Otherwise, asking would be in vain and might even upset Duanmu Yi.
"By the way, did you say you had something to tell me?" Duanmu Yi asked Duanmu Chen.
Duanmu Chen composed himself and said, "The Emperor previously suggested brides for me, but this was interrupted. I wonder if this will continue? My mother wishes to be a grandmother, and I also need a proper lady to manage my household."
"The matter of selecting a bride, huh?" Duanmu Yi chuckled, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have found you. We need to arrange this as soon as possible. Today, I will have the Ministry of Rites handle it! If you fancy a certain lady, your mother can also have a say."
