The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis

"Besides, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not yet married a Crown Princess, but he has already done such a thing... If the Emperor grants the Crown Prince and Princess Cheng'an a marriage at this time, I am afraid that Princess Cheng'an will be upset, and the Marquis of Zhenbei and General Chu will also feel uncomfortable."

Concubine Zheng said this in a tactful way.

The actual meaning is: "Dongfang Ye is the crown prince, but he has been having affairs with other women before marrying the Crown Princess. He also abandoned her and did not acknowledge his own flesh and blood. These three serious mistakes add up. If we grant him a marriage with Chu Heyi at this time, it will not only be bullying, but also humiliating Chu Heyi and trampling on the reputation of Zhenbei Marquis Mansion!"

The emperor understood the implication of this statement.

Before a man marries a wife, he should not do anything too ridiculous, which is also a respect for the woman.

What's more, the prince wanted to marry Chu Heyi. Chu Heyi was the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Zhenbei, the sister of the great general, and now the Princess of Cheng'an County. Even though the prince was the heir to the throne, he had to give her a certain amount of respect.

The emperor had to take into account the reputation and feelings of the Zhenbei Marquisate, a family of military commanders with outstanding military achievements.

In an instant, the emperor was greatly disappointed with Prince Dongfang Ye.

"Come here, send the prince back to the East Palace. Without my order, he is not allowed to leave the East Palace. As for Miss Jinrou, take her away first. I will personally judge this matter later."

Dongfang Ye: "Mother..."

Although the queen could not accept such an outcome, she still shook her head at him and signaled him to be quiet.

Dongfang Ye pursed his lips and turned to the emperor on the high platform: "Father, you must take care of your health and don't get angry because of what happened tonight. If you get sick, I will hate myself for it...I'll take my leave!"

He retreated obediently.

Chu Heyi raised his eyebrows slightly. This prince was quite something. In such a disadvantageous situation, he still cared about whether the emperor's health was damaged...

His words would surely calm the emperor down and leave him with the impression of a good son.

When the emperor goes to investigate Jinrou's case, he might think that the prince was seduced by Jinrou and did something wrong.

What a quick mind.

However, despite being so smart, he died very early in his previous life.

The emperor said: "Princess Cheng'an, I will thoroughly investigate the incident between the prince and the girl tonight. If he is not at fault, I will grant you marriage. If he is at fault, I will severely punish him and give you an explanation."

Everyone in Concubine Zheng's group smiled knowingly, and they finally succeeded in preventing the Emperor from granting the marriage.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. I am grateful to you."

After Chu Heyi expressed his gratitude, he returned to his seat, only to see the queen suddenly attacking Xie Lin.

She looked directly at Xie Lin and asked, "Master Xie, did Miss Jinrou disguise herself as your servant and follow you into the palace?"

Seeing her son being taken away, the queen was extremely angry, but she quickly realized that Jinrou was just a commoner, how could she enter the palace? Not to mention reaching Minghua Palace to find her son!

Unless someone brings her in on purpose.

She immediately asked the nanny beside her to investigate the situation, and soon found out that the girl had followed Xie Lin into the palace in disguise as a servant.

The Queen hated Xie Lin to the extreme at this time. She wished she could strangle him to death with her own hands and watch him die in front of her.

How could he harm the prince like this!

How could this be! !

For Chu Heyi, would he take action? Even at the cost of destroying the prince's reputation and making the emperor disappointed in the prince?

Damn Xie Lin, damn it!

The emperor's sharp gaze fell on Xie Lin. Although he was annoyed at what the prince had done, he was also annoyed at the person who damaged the prince's reputation.

Xie Lin stood up from his seat and knelt in front of the palace, "Your Majesty and the Empress, Miss Jinrou was indeed brought into the palace by me."

Princess Pingyang was shocked and angry: "Why did you want to harm my brother, the crown prince, like this?"

From the moment Jinrou appeared, Chu Heyi guessed that this was Xie Lin's work, but he didn't know how he would deal with the attack from the queen and the princess at this moment.

Maybe even the emperor would make things difficult for him.

As expected, the emperor spoke up: "Thank you, sir, what do you mean by this?"

Xie Lin knelt in the hall and spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Before I entered the palace, Miss Jinrou mistook me for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. After learning that I was not His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, she knelt down and begged me to take her into the palace.

"She cried a lot, was pregnant, and threatened to die... It is said that saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda, not to mention that Miss Jinrou has two lives on her body, and these two lives may be related to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"I dare not make the decision to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bear the responsibility of two lives under unknown circumstances, so I brought her into the palace, but I never thought that something like this would happen."

Runxue and Dongfang Shuo felt cold in their hearts.

Xie Lin is indeed a man who knows how to talk.

It was obvious that he was deliberately preventing the emperor from granting the marriage between the prince and Chu Heyi, and he tried to whitewash his behavior as not wanting the prince to bear two lives in unknown circumstances.

Runxue felt a little regretful. If she had known that Xie Lin was such a good fighter, she should not have directly dealt with the Xie family, but should have won over Xie Lin.

But thinking back, she had not thought that dealing with the Xie family would result in failure, and she had not previously planned to win over Xie Lin.

The Queen said coldly: "Is it really what Master Xie said? Or is it that Master Xie loves Princess Cheng'an and doesn't want the Emperor to grant the marriage between the Crown Prince and Princess Cheng'an, so he deliberately sabotaged it?"

Xie Lin paused for a moment, and immediately replied, "I dare not have such an idea. Please understand, Your Majesty."

His answer was so straightforward and clear that the Queen, the Grand Tutor and others couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that Xie Lin really didn't like Chu Heyi?

But this suspicion was only fleeting. The Queen continued, "But I heard that you have a close relationship with Cheng'an County Lady. If there is no love between the two of you, why did Cheng'an County Lady not hesitate to sacrifice her life to save you when the Prince wanted to kill you on the spot?"

Xie Lin: "That's because the Princess of Cheng'an is kind-hearted. She cares about the people of Daqi. Even if others encounter such a situation, she will sacrifice herself to protect them."

He added: "I think there is another reason why the Princess of Cheng'an dared to sacrifice herself to protect him, and that is that she believed that the Emperor and the Empress would never kill innocent people."

Chu Heyi, who was tense all over, secretly loosened her clenched hands when she heard his calm and well-reasoned words, only to find that her palms were sweaty.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, the Queen said, "Master Xie, don't be nervous. Even if you like Cheng'an County Princess, it's okay. She is the daughter of the Marquis's family, and she is both talented and beautiful. It is normal for a man to ask to marry her."

The queen changed from her previous fierceness and became extremely gentle.

"I only need one word from you. If you truly like her, I will ask the Emperor to grant you marriage and fulfill your deep friendship."

Chu Heyi suddenly looked at the queen and then at Xie Lin.
