Quick Travel: Saving the Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Role

Chapter 185 Cannon Fodder in the Empress’s Story (19)

"Yu'er, this Miss Lu is not suitable."

"Ke Erchen likes her." Xiao Yu has always had the illusion of being the most favored prince by the emperor. It is not surprising that he would do anything deviant, not to mention that the emperor did not want him to choose a woman with a good family background to be his princess.

After a few pushbacks, he agreed directly.

Xiao Yu and Di Kan knelt down one after another and thanked the emperor for his kindness.

The other noble ladies breathed a sigh of relief. The third prince had already chosen Taishi Yao's daughter-in-law as his concubine, but when the emperor asked, he did not refuse.

"My son wants to marry General Zhao's daughter as his concubine, please allow me to do so."

Qin Song was killed, but Grand Master Yao, as the Crown Prince's Grand Master, sided with the Third Prince. Now he has no use value and may be implicated later.

The third prince wanted to find a new chess piece for himself, and marriage was the best choice. General Zhao had some military power, and the old general Zhao was highly respected. These were all important reasons for him to choose General Zhao's daughter.

Another thing is that General Zhao's daughter is beautiful, with a graceful figure and amazing dancing skills.

The emperor also thought about the twists and turns that would follow. He was not very happy from the bottom of his heart and could not refuse directly, so he said: "I will help you ask Miss Zhao what she means."

Zhao Menghuan stood up, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I have a heart for you. I fell in love with His Highness the Tang Dynasty at first sight, and I am willing to serve His Highness the Tang Dynasty. I would like to ask Your Highness to choose another beautiful woman."

The third prince's face suddenly turned black.

When Xiao Yan heard that someone was cueing him and saying something dangerous like falling in love with him at first sight, Xiao Yan immediately stood up and wanted to refuse.

But Shen Huan pulled his sleeve: "Sit down and don't mess around."

Xiao Yan was stared at by everyone, and Shen Huan kept pulling him. He could only sit back on the chair, with displeasure written all over his face.

It wasn't until those eyes moved away that he said aggrievedly: "You said before that no one is allowed to covet me. Why is it like this now? Do you not love me anymore?"

Shen Huan: "...Watch the show quietly."

Xiao Yan was so angry that he almost shut himself up and kept harassing her.

In the end, the third prince failed to get what he wanted, so he had to settle for a woman with a less distinguished family background. The woman did not refuse.

The fifth prince also already has a concubine. It is said that he and the princess Qin Se are harmonious and have not added anyone else to the palace at this time.

The sixth prince asked to marry the eldest daughter of the Minister of Industry as his concubine. The emperor was also hesitant, but when he asked, the woman agreed without hesitation. The emperor could not go back on his word, so he could only grant a marriage contract for the two of them.

The seventh prince's maternal family is not obvious. The princess he chose was the concubine of a marquis, and he also chose the timid showgirl as his concubine.

It was Xiao Yansui's turn. He thought the emperor would just pass him by, but he didn't expect Concubine Li to speak first.

"Yan'er, just now Miss Zhao said that she is willing to serve you. I think she is beautiful and talented. How about letting her be your princess?"

Xiao Yan then stood up: "Concubine, I already have the love of my life in my heart. I will not marry anyone except Shen Huan. Please take back your life, Concubine."

Concubine Li did not expect that he would refuse so simply. After the conversation that day, she knew that the woman was extraordinary and that she could not dominate them.

She just said this to offend them, but Xiao Yansui didn't give them any face, and she suddenly looked ugly.

The one with an even uglier face was Xiao Yansui.

He angrily glared at Shen Huan, but Shen Huan didn't seem to take the matter to heart at all, while the third prince turned around and was eager to try. Still want to make a comeback.

Zhao Menghuan saw this and knelt down quickly: "Your Highness, Prince Tang, I don't ask for the position of princess. As long as I can serve you by my side, I don't need any title. I ask His Highness, Prince Tang, to fulfill my wish."

Xiao Yan became impatient and wanted to say something, but was pulled back by Shen Huan: "Promise her."

Xiao Yan then turned sideways and glared at her.

Just when he was about to rebuff the emperor, he suddenly heard a voice.

"I like to watch her dance. If you don't agree, I will go to her often in the future."

Obviously only he could hear this voice. Xiao Yansui immediately understood. He was extremely unhappy, but he had no choice but to reluctantly say: "Since Miss Zhao is so willing to put down her figure, my princess likes you." Wu Zi, you will serve her by her side from now on."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.

Even the emperor was a little unhappy, but he had promised Xiao Yansui not to interfere arbitrarily. At this time, he could only pretend to be deaf and dumb and acquiesced to the matter.

Zhao Menghuan did not feel any displeasure with his statement, and immediately knelt down and bowed in the direction of the two of them, saying that she was willing to serve Princess Tang.

With the powerful position of the Zhao family, she was more than qualified to be a princess, but now she lowered her status to serve a woman of unknown origin. Everyone thought she was out of her mind.

Although His Highness the Prince of Tang has not yet chosen a princess among the beautiful girls, he has decided to do so, followed by the Ninth Prince who also has no princess or concubine yet.

But it had little to do with them. Xiao Yan was busy settling accounts with Shen Huan and didn't pay much attention.

After walking around for a while, everyone else had made arrangements, and the emperor asked what the prince meant again.

He had obviously agreed to marry the prime minister's daughter as the crown prince before, but now looking at the cold-faced Ning Fangfei in the audience, he knew that if he said he wanted to marry her as a concubine, the emperor would agree to him, and Ning Fangfei couldn't refuse.

But she would hate him for it.

He doesn't want to.

After hesitating for a long time, he said: "Father, I don't have a candidate for the crown prince in my mind, so let's do this for today."

Now it was the emperor's turn to be dumbfounded.

He had previously told him to let him make the decision, but now he was wavering. As someone who had been through the process, he knew that the prince had someone in his heart, so he was unwilling to force him to avoid repeating the mistakes of their generation.

Now the prince is indecisive and there is nothing he can do.

The much-anticipated prime minister's daughter was not chosen, which surprised everyone. The prince had been depressed. After saying that, he was the first to leave before anyone else left the table.

The emperor was also tired, so he said a few words and then returned to his palace.

Concubine Li looked at everyone, her eyes lingering on the two of them for a moment. Shen Huan looked back unabashedly, with a calm look in his eyes with a slight smile, which made Concubine Li unpredictable.

She summoned the maid in charge and asked her to see off the guests.

Soon the people in the Imperial Garden began to leave one after another. When Shen Huan and Xiao Yan walked out hand in hand, someone followed them.

"Your Highness, Prince Tang, please wait a moment."

The two turned around and it was Zhao Menghuan.

She changed her clothes and looked much more dignified. She was accompanied by a little maid, who was now attending the ceremony with her.

"My daughter has seen your highness, and your highness is blessed."

Xiao Yan rolled his eyes in his heart: "Miss Zhao, there is no need to be polite. What can I do for you?"

Zhao Menghuan looked at Shen Huan and then at him. After hesitating for a moment, he asked, "Your Highness, Prince Tang, can you lend me a moment to speak?"
