Chapter 1445 The Palace Banquet is Over

Everyone thought the reward was over, but the emperor suddenly looked at Princess Anle with a smile.

His eyes were full of love, as if he was looking at his most beloved child.

Said: "An Le, I specially held this banquet for you today, hoping that you can meet your fiancé. Come, come and get to know him."

After saying this, the emperor gently pointed to the side. Everyone looked in the direction of the emperor's finger and found that the person the emperor pointed to was Wang Chuanxing.

Wang Chuanxing never expected that this matter would be related to him.

He was originally just happy that Zifen was canonized as a princess, and he also believed that he was able to attend this palace banquet entirely thanks to the glory of Zifen and the Hong family.

When he sat down in his seat, he couldn't help but feel a little confused because he seemed to be sitting closer to the front than the others.

At this moment, he couldn't help but frown when he heard the emperor pointing at him and saying that he was Princess Anle's fiancé.

I also understand why I am sitting here.

I thought, "County horse? Is this a real horse?"

Wang Chuanxing subconsciously turned his head to look at the old man of the Hong family, who was also his grandfather.

Since this was a celebratory banquet and the emperor specifically ordered him to attend, Old Master Hong did not refuse.

At this moment, Old Master Hong was also very surprised, but he quickly understood the emperor's intention, so he nodded slightly to Wang Chuanxing to show his agreement.

Now Wang Chuanxing could only accept his fate. He dared not disobey the imperial edict, and this was the honor of the Wang family.

Wang Chuanxing stood up, greeted the emperor and the empress respectfully, then stood upright with his back straight, allowing all the officials present to look at him curiously.

At this time, Princess Anle followed the emperor's gaze and looked at Wang Chuanxing, but found that he was not looking at her, and she couldn't help feeling a sense of loss in her heart.

But when she thought about marrying him in the future, a blush unconsciously appeared on her face.

When Wang Chuanxing realized that Princess Anle had been looking at him, he took a step forward without hesitation, bowed and said, "Princess Anle, I have long heard of your great name. Your humble servant Wang Chuanxing greets you."

When Princess Anle heard this, she was immediately moved, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she replied softly, "Sir Wang, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Seeing this, the emperor couldn't help laughing heartily: "Haha, what a perfect couple made in heaven. I have decided to grant you two a marriage contract! Anle, you must treat him well in the future. You can't look down on Wang's son just because he is my granddaughter. He is a loyal minister of our Great Xia!"

Princess Anle nodded shyly in agreement, with happiness gleaming in her eyes.

The queen originally wanted to speak out against this marriage, but when she looked at Wang Chuanxing carefully, she found that this young man was so outstanding, even better than the general of the Tiger Army, so she gladly accepted this arrangement.

Ye Zifen frowned the whole time, wondering why Princess Anle kept staring at her cousin as soon as she entered the room, and was full of hostility towards her.

It turns out that she had known about this for a long time, but why did the emperor frame the Wang family?

Thinking of this, she felt sorry for Wang Hong.

Her third sister made her even more worried. Since the princess was hostile to her, she was afraid that she would not treat her third sister well in the future.

Thinking of this, she became more anxious and couldn't help but look at the emperor with resentment.

The emperor had not noticed the little girl at first, but when he swept his eyes over everyone, he happened to catch the resentful look from Princess Fuxia.

He couldn't help but feel puzzled, not understanding why this little girl was looking at him like that.

He looked at Wang Chuanxing suspiciously, then at Ye Zifen, secretly wondering if there was any hidden secret between the two.

However, the look in Zhang Gaoyi's eyes when he looked at Princess Fuxia just now clearly showed that they were in love with each other, so why did Princess Fuxia look like this at this moment?

Although he was full of doubts, his words had already been spoken and the imperial edict could not be withdrawn.

The atmosphere at the palace banquet was very warm at this time. People congratulated Wang Chuanxing and also congratulated Old Master Hong.

However, the ladies from the aristocratic families were full of suspicion. They really couldn't understand why the grandson whom Old Lady Hong valued so much would marry Princess Anle.

You know, it would be fine if Princess Anle had always maintained her status as a princess, but her father is the legitimate son of the Empress!

If he could ascend the throne in the future, Princess Anle would have the possibility of becoming an extremely noble princess.

By then, Wang Youning, as a son-in-law of the emperor, will have no chance of pursuing a career in officialdom, because according to the rules of this dynasty, sons-in-law of the emperor are not allowed to hold official positions or participate in political affairs, and thus will not be able to display their talents and ambitions.

The Wang and Hong families have worked so hard to cultivate a young talent, so how could they bear to let him give up his bright future?

In other words, has the emperor decided not to consider the empress's legitimate son as a candidate for the crown prince?

Otherwise, why would you agree to this marriage?

This series of questions made people in the court panic, and no one could understand the deeper meaning.

But it doesn’t seem like the Hong family has lost their loyalty.

After all, two generations of the Hong family have been the emperor's trusted ministers and are deeply trusted by the emperor.

What's more, given how much the Hong family values ​​their grandson, it is impossible for the emperor not to know about it.

If that’s the case, then what is hidden behind this marriage?

Everyone speculated and tried to solve the mystery.

In fact, this matter is not as complicated as imagined. It was all arranged by the emperor.

The reason why the emperor did this was simply to make up for the Wang family in this way.

Now, Anle has been conferred the title of Princess, and Wang Chuanxing also has the opportunity to enter the official career.

When the emperor passes away and the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, if Wang Chuanxing can gain the recognition of the new emperor with his own abilities, he will be able to continue to stay in officialdom.

It was late at night, the dew was heavy, and the palace banquet finally came to an end.

Ye Zifen originally planned to leave with everyone, but suddenly received a notice that the emperor was waiting for her and Wang Chuanxing in Chengqian Palace.

In fact, the emperor had quietly left before the palace banquet was over, and only summoned the two cousins ​​after the banquet, presumably to discuss the marriage arranged by Wang Chuanxing.

It just so happened that Ye Zifen still had some doubts in her mind and was about to ask the emperor.

At this moment, Wang Chuanxing also felt uneasy, and the two of them stepped into Chengqian Hall together.

After Ye Zifen and Wang Chuanxing saluted the emperor, Ye Zifen asked, "Your Majesty, it's so late, haven't you rested yet? In fact, even if you want to see us brothers and sisters, you don't have to work so hard. You can wait until tomorrow to summon us."

Her voice was soft and concerned, causing the Emperor to smile.

The emperor laughed and said, "Why, Zifen, do you think I am old, so I shouldn't ask you to come over at this time?"

His tone was somewhat teasing, but there was a different kind of light in his eyes.

Although he said dissatisfied words, he felt a warmth deep in his heart.
