Chapter 128: You want beauty over the kingdom?
Chapter 128: You want beauty over the kingdom?
Looking back, I saw the queen standing in the shadows, as if she had just emerged from underground, and she was emitting a 'yin aura'.
At this time, the situation in the Prince Qin's Palace was really not peaceful.
In the past two days, no one knew what Yan Chu was thinking. He often came to have dinner with Shen Zhishu, and when he had nothing to do, he would stay for the whole day.
He didn't mention how to rescue Su Rong, but just asked Shen Zhishu to play chess with him or recite poems to him.
The Shangshu family's daughter, Liu Yunshang, who was appointed by His Majesty as the Princess of Anle, was brought into the palace by people from the palace.
When the guard came to report the news, Yan Chu and Shen Zhishu were having breakfast.
Then both of them were stunned.
Shen Zhishu looked stunned and shocked.
When I saw Liu Yunshang, I saw her wearing a light red wedding dress, golden hairpins, high-quality gorgeous clothes, gorgeous and exquisite makeup, and she was standing in the main hall with a smile on her face.
Next to him was the emperor's chief steward.
Behind them were two palace maids, and more than twenty boxes of various sizes tied with red flowers were placed in the courtyard.
It’s such a grand ceremony.
"Your Highness, Prince Qin, please accept my order."
The chief steward was still holding the emperor's edict in his hand.
With this posture, anyone can tell what is going on.
Shen Zhishu looked at Yan Chu with a little concern.
There was only Su Rong in his heart, and he had used some despicable means to marry her.
He must be extremely unwilling to accept other women.
And she didn't expect that His Majesty would suddenly grant her marriage.
Just when she thought Yan Chu would refuse.
He knelt down very straightforwardly to accept the order.
Shen Zhishu knelt down in surprise.
"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that the daughter of the Minister of Justice, Ms. Liu, is intelligent and dignified..."
After the praises, the marriage was granted. The eldest daughter of the Liu family, who had just been named Princess Liu, suddenly became the concubine of the King of Qin.
Yan Chu accepted the imperial edict without any dissatisfaction.
"Your Majesty, the King of Qin, His Majesty has specifically asked me to bring you a message. He hopes that you will put state affairs first and consider the country and the people. Don't make stupid mistakes again in the future. His Majesty also said that this is the last time, and he will never tolerate it again in the future."
Then the chief steward said something that Shen Zhishu didn't quite understand.
What does this have to do with Concubine Liu?
But the next second, the chief steward's attention was on her.
"Concubine Shen, this is the token that His Majesty gave you. With this token, you can enter and leave any part of the palace at will in the future. If you are wronged in this palace, you can go to His Majesty. His Majesty said that he will make the decision for you."
Not only did he come to deliver the woman, he also brought her 'reward'.
Does the gold medal given by the emperor himself and the words he said mean that he can temporarily serve as his backer?
"Thank you, Father, for the reward."
Shen Zhishu quickly took the gold medal and knelt down in greeting.
After the chief steward finished his work, he left the palace.
Leaving behind Concubine Liu who was still wearing her wedding dress.
"Your Majesty, Sister Shen, should I serve you tea first?"
She seemed to be a lively person, and she could even laugh at Yan Chu's cold face.
"I... didn't know I would get married so early. His Majesty's decree was issued this morning, and the wedding dress was sent by the palace. I was sent here before I woke up. I haven't learned the rules of marriage yet, so... Sister Shen, please teach me what I should do next?"
She continued to explain.
This was not her intention, but His Majesty suddenly gave her to the King of Qin, and she was just doing her job according to the order.
No one can disobey the marriage granted by the king of a country.
But if Su Rong were here, she would definitely not think like this. She would definitely persuade Concubine Liu to disobey the order and advise her to be herself instead of being coerced by others.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhishu couldn't wait to let Su Rong know that her most beloved man now had another woman.
Even if I wasn't there, she would never have been able to have the eternal story of a couple living together for the rest of their lives like in her previous life.
"No need to serve tea. Since you are still sleepy, go and rest."
She didn't reply.
Yan Chu said with a serious face.
But the tone was still mild.
Later, he instructed the housekeeper to arrange Concubine Liu to live in Cuizhu Courtyard.
It is right next to Wang Academy, formerly Jingyi Academy and Ya Academy.
It seems that Yan Chu's thoughts about this person at this moment are the same as when he first entered the door.
Just keep him in the palace. If you don’t see him on weekdays, it’s best not to see him.
"Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty. I will take my leave now."
Concubine Liu did not show any dissatisfaction at all.
Even though she was a bride today and had just entered the family, if this was the case, she would be considered to have been neglected.
But she didn't look depressed.
Instead, she happily lifted up her skirt and ran out.
"Butler, please send someone to carry all these things that His Majesty has given me to my yard..."
She spoke in a brisk tone, followed the housekeeper, muttered a few words, and then left quickly.
"Your Majesty, I dare to ask you, what did the emperor say to you that day? Why did the chief steward say that just now?"
The crown prince should have been announced, but the emperor suddenly changed his mind.
Can it be understood that the emperor was actually about to pass the throne to Yan Chu, but he thought that if he didn't divorce Su Rong and angered the emperor, the matter would be left unresolved?
Because if the emperor favored Prince Shuo, he would not be affected by Su Rong's affairs.
He actually wanted to "give up" the throne for Su Rong?
If this is the case, Shen Zhishu really doesn't know how far he should go to make him give up Su Rong.
Originally, she thought that even though Yan Chu gave Su Rong all his love, men care more about power and their ambitions, and women are secondary. If he values feelings so much, how could she make him give up Su Rong?
"Shu'er, in your eyes, what kind of person is the princess?"
But he said nothing. Instead, he looked up at the sky and asked back with a deep look on his face.
Of course, she was a vicious woman who was arrogant, cruel, jealous, and had a bad temper.
Is that even a question?
Shen Zhishu muttered to himself.
"The princess... has bold ideas, is independent, and is very capable. As a woman, I am ashamed of myself."
But in front of Yan Chu, of course I could only keep praising him.
"But she always does things without scruples, without regard for the consequences, has a very bad temper, and... is not kind either."
The next second, what Yan Chu said made her stunned.
It turns out that you still know a little bit.
"Your Majesty..."
"She is also hypocritical. On the surface, she sympathizes with the weak woman who has no choice, but in fact, as long as it is related to her interests, she will be vicious and want to kill people. She is very jealous and has no tolerance for others..."
Not only that, Yan Chu said to himself.
Shen Zhishu nodded frantically in his heart, agreeing very much.
"The princess is just too concerned about the prince. I can understand that."
"But she caused me a lot of trouble and became an obstacle for me."
Yan Chu disagreed.
It sounds like you are extremely disappointed in her?
Then why does he want her instead of the country?
