Raising a concubine under her nose, the reborn mistress marries the prince
Chapter 159 Can’t Leave
After the Prince of Xiang received the imperial edict, Wang Defu bowed and said, "Your Highness, the Emperor has ordered that Princess Qingning get married immediately. The Emperor will send people to repair the palace, so please rest assured, Your Highness."
He lowered his voice a lot, as if only this could suppress the prince's anger.
King Xiang turned and looked at Qingning, only to see that her face was pale and her eyes were full of helplessness and fear.
The King of Xiang's heart is bleeding.
At this moment, I really want to go back in time and slap myself.
He is also the descendant of the previous emperor, so he can also sit on the throne of the emperor.
He and his elder brother are brothers from the same mother.
He gave his full support to help the emperor ascend to that position.
He secretly helped the emperor to win over a lot of forces.
After the emperor ascended the throne, he hid in the Prince of Xiang's Mansion.
Fortunately, when his eldest son came of age, he asked for grace and allowed his son to go to the fiefdom.
But as for his daughter, he still couldn't bear to let her leave her father and mother.
He thought that the emperor would at least treat his daughter well because of his loyalty.
But what are you doing now?
He saved the emperor, but the emperor repaid his kindness with resentment and ignored his daughter's lifelong happiness.
Gu Yunfei, the King of Xiang had no idea whether he was square, round, or long or short.
Her daughter could only marry a small fifth-rank official.
The emperor slapped him in the face.
"I will not let you suffer any injustice." King Xiang said softly, but he was furious in his heart.
He could not openly disobey the order and had no choice but to swallow the bitter fruit.
He decided to accept the marriage temporarily, but it was only a temporary solution.
Princess Xiang looked at her daughter distressedly, "Ning'er, don't be afraid, your mother will make the decision for you."
After saying this, Princess Xiang felt guilty.
The marriage was granted by imperial decree and we had to obey it.
However, I don't think Gu Yunfei would dare to treat her daughter badly.
Wang Defu told Emperor Rong Sheng everything he saw in the Prince of Xiang's Mansion.
The emperor was secretly pleased with himself. He had successfully used Qingning's marriage to pin down the King of Xiang, making it difficult for him to leave Shangjing easily.
Wang Defu looked at the emperor. He didn't know why the emperor was becoming more and more extreme.
On the day when Lin Mupo rebelled, many people in the palace saw how Prince Xiang protected the emperor.
The emperor's actions will only make people feel disheartened.
However, even Wang Defu, who had been serving the emperor, did not dare to say a word of advice.
After Eunuch Wang left, the King of Xiang cursed, "The Emperor has really lost his mind."
No one thought that what the King of Xiang said was inappropriate.
Even the always cautious Princess Xiang added, "Does the emperor think we are easy to bully?"
Jiang Chuwei held Qingning's hand tightly all the time.
Ever since the imperial edict was read out, her body has been tense and her hands have been shaking.
"Qingning, calm down! Ask your father to summon Gu Yunfei to take a look in two days. If you don't like him, how about trying to get the emperor to revoke his decision?"
"Can we do this? Will the emperor uncle agree?" Qing Ning's tears of grievance fell down.
Princess Xiang couldn't help it any longer, so she hugged her daughter and the tears she had been holding back finally rolled down.
Prince Xiang slammed his fist on the door. He would never let his daughter's happiness be ruined by the emperor's whim.
Now I can't leave.
Lin Muheng ordered all the items to be moved down.
The people sent by the emperor to repair the palace have also arrived.
Jiang Chuwei and Lin Muheng had nothing else to help with, so they left a team of people to protect the palace, and then they returned to Prince Yu's Palace.
They were both silent.
The emperor's actions shocked the two men.
Emperor Rong Sheng really has no bottom line.
They felt very heavy-hearted. Being born into a royal family was so cruel.
There is no brotherhood and no blood ties.
There is only the desire for power.
Qingning locked herself in her boudoir, sitting there in silence for a long time.
The Princess of Xiang finally vented her anger, "That old man is really going too far.
Princess Xiang regretted it a hundred times.
She couldn't bear to leave her daughter and wanted to keep her by her side for a few more years. She never expected that the emperor was such a cruel person that he would not even let his own niece go.
Now all she had in her heart was prayer, that Gu Yunfei was a reliable person.
On the other side, Jiang Chuwei was also worried.
Gu Yunfei's confession to her was still vivid in her mind.
If Gu Yunfei hasn't forgotten me yet, he and Qing Ning will sooner or later become a pair of resentful lovers.
Prince Yu saw the princess's sad face and knew she was still worried about Qingning. "Don't worry about it anymore. Tomorrow, I will summon him to the palace. You can take a look and see if he is suitable for Qingning."
Jiang Chuwei was shocked. "No, no, no, why would I meet a stranger?"
After saying this, he went away feeling guilty.
"Don't worry, I know Gu Yunfei likes you." Lin Muheng just finished speaking, it was Jiang Chuwei's turn to jump up, "How did you know?"
Lin Muheng did not comment, "It shows that he has a good eye and can recognize gems."
Jiang Chuwei looked at Lin Muheng, "Aren't you jealous?"
"You underestimate me too much. I am the only one in your heart. Why should I be jealous of someone who has nothing to do with me?"
Jiang Chuwei felt relieved when she saw that he was not lying.
She didn't want any misunderstanding between the two.
"He must have been ignorant at that time." Jiang Chuwei added.
"Then he should be more sensible from now on." Lin Muheng said, "If he does anything wrong to Qingning, Uncle Wang will not let him off."
A few days later, Gu Yunfei was summoned to the Prince of Xiang's Mansion.
The Xiang Wang and his wife took Qing Ning to meet him in the living room. Gu Yunfei was very elegant and had a great temperament, but Qing Ning was not interested in him.
Gu Yunfei's conversation was well-mannered, and the Xiang Wang and his wife were quite satisfied.
Seeing that Qingning was not interested, Gu Yunfei quickly said goodbye and left.
The anger in Princess Xiang's heart finally eased a little.
The emperor still has some conscience.
There's nothing weird or odd stuffed in there.
Now that the matter has been settled, at least the prince consort cannot look too shabby.
However, the Prince of Xiang was well aware of the emperor's methods and understood the deep meaning behind this marriage.
A man sat in the study for a long time, and he felt like a failure.
He couldn't even protect his own daughter.
I am really unworthy of being a father.
At the same time, Qingning also realized the seriousness of the situation.
She didn't want to become a victim of the struggle between her father and the emperor.
Qingning came to her father's study. The King of Xiang was drinking to relieve his worries, and he was surprised to see his daughter coming.
"Father! Don't be angry. There's nothing wrong with having someone like Gu Yunfei as your consort." Qing Ning said, biting her lip.
Prince Xiang sighed and drank the wine in his cup. "I don't want you to marry casually, but this is the emperor's order. It is difficult to disobey."
"So father, please don't drink anymore. Don't ruin your health. Qingning will have to rely on you in the future." Qingning said anxiously.
After a moment of silence, the King of Xiang said, "Okay, I'll listen to my daughter." "Qingning, father knows you've been wronged." The King of Xiang patted Qingning's hand, "But being born in an imperial family, many things are beyond your control. But don't worry, father will do everything he can to protect you."
A trace of determination flashed in Qingning's eyes, "My daughter understands and can protect herself. But father, we can't just sit there and wait for death. We must think of a way."
King Xiang nodded slightly, "Well, for now, we can only take it one step at a time. Perhaps we can start with Gu Yunfei. If he can stand on our side, things may turn around."
