old friends return

Huang Qingwen was startled, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his body. He vaguely seemed to understand what his daughter wanted to tell him today.

"Father, luckily my daughter was rescued by the eldest prince that day, otherwise I'm afraid her innocence will not be guaranteed," Huang Wanrong's nose soured at this point, still a little scared, she grabbed a handkerchief to wipe the tears from her eyes.

With a trembling voice, she continued: "If that's the case, how can my daughter have the face to face others? She will be clean only if she is dead..."

Huang Qingwen didn't know what to say at this time. Firstly, he was glad that his daughter was saved, and secondly, he was afraid that his daughter would have something for Cheng Muze because of it. The youngest daughter's family... Cheng Muze is definitely not a kind person...

Patting Huang Wanrong's hand, Huang Qingwen softened his voice, "Speak nonsense, it's not a good time now, Rong'er should stop thinking about these things, Daddy is here."

Huang Wanrong sobbed softly for a while, calming down her emotions, then raised her head and continued to speak to Huang Qingwen with red eyes: "Daddy, daughter..." At that time, her tone was mixed with shyness and joy, "Daddy, my daughter wants to come with her father today. Say something."

"That night, His Highness the First Prince recognized his daughter, and told her..." Huang Wanrong didn't care anymore, anyway, it was already at this time, and her father loved her so much, so she definitely couldn't be cruel enough not to agree to her.

"He told his daughter that he had met her at a palace banquet before, and said that he was very unforgettable to his daughter, and that her daughter...couldn't help but be moved by His Highness. Besides, her daughter is unmarried now, so she wondered whether her father could represent her. My daughter mentioned this matter to the emperor..."

Huang Qingwen frowned, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said to Huang Wanrong as calmly as possible: "Rong'er, let's not talk about how important it is to propose marriage to the royal family, just say that you are a daughter's family, have you ever thought about being the eldest prince?" Your Highness just had a whim, and this matter is just something he said casually?"

Just as Huang Wanrong was about to open her mouth to argue, Huang Qingwen said again: "Besides, you also know that His Highness the First Prince already has a concubine, let's not talk about the concubine for the time being, and we shouldn't ask more about the royal family, but Ronger, if you just Married like this..."

"My daughter is naturally unwilling to be a side concubine!" Huang Wanrong interrupted Huang Qingwen, "His Royal Highness has already told me about this matter. The main concubine An Weixue cannot be raised, and she will be abolished sooner or later. When the time comes, my daughter will naturally be a concubine. Grand Princess, Your Highness has promised me all these things!"

"Slap!" A resounding slap hit Huang Wanrong's face, "You bastard! Since when have you thought about these things! Why did you have these connections with the eldest prince without telling your father! What about the royal affairs? It's as simple as you think! Stop these thoughts for me as soon as possible!"

Huang Qingwen was so angry that his fingertips were trembling. Looking at the obvious red mark on Huang Wanrong's face, he felt distressed, regretful, and angry and helpless. When did his daughter become like this...

Huang Wanrong was a little dazed by that slap, she covered her cheek that was numb from the pain, and begged Huang Qingwen in tears: "Father, it's the first time in my daughter's life that my daughter has such thoughts, is father going to be so cruel to my daughter? "

Huang Qingwen got up, unwilling to look at Huang Wanrong who was kneeling on the ground begging him, with a cold face and a calm voice: "Think about this matter carefully, other fathers can answer you, but this matter is not enough. Think about it again .”

In the end, he was still helpless. If it was someone else, he would naturally be willing to tell his daughter, but he really didn't want to talk about the royal family...

Just as she was about to step out of the main hall, she heard Huang Wanrong crying behind her and saying, "Father, please promise your daughter this matter. My daughter...is already a member of His Highness..."

Huang Wanrong cried so hard that she could hardly breathe, she lay down on the ground and begged for help.

Like a thunderbolt from the blue sky.

Huang Qingwen froze there, his daughter was always obedient and well-behaved, why did she do such an outrageous thing this time...

"Come here..." he ordered with a trembling voice, "Take the young lady back to his room and keep him under strict guard. She is not allowed to take a step out of the room for the next few days!"

"Daddy...Daddy..." Huang Wanrong was brought back to her bedroom by the maidservant, she was out of breath from crying, and the rouge wrapped in tears on her face fell on the ground.

Huang Qingwen, who was about to go out from the main hall, turned back, staggered back to the table, sat down abruptly, holding a teacup to drink, but the cold sweat in his hand threw the tureen to the ground.

I have always been unwilling to get involved in any affairs of the royal family, and kept a proper distance from all the princes in the court tremblingly, and even dared not have too much contact with some ministers.

But I don't know when I was forcibly dragged into this power struggle by external forces...

But what can he do... These military powers of the Guards are always eyeing.

But where will my daughter be now...

Concubine Yan Gui went to Kunmeng Palace when she was free these few days.Today, Cheng Muze's marriage was finally settled.Let Cheng Muze enter the palace to greet him, and persuade him to accept the side concubine only for his own good.

Cheng Muze agreed hesitantly.

It was really a good move.Cheng Muze asked himself and was extremely satisfied.

Huang Qingwen lost half of his hair almost overnight.

He hasn't gone to court for three days, but he didn't expect to wait for an imperial decree.

Marriage decree.

"Follow the sky to carry the goods, the emperor decreed:

I heard that Huang Wanrong, the daughter of Huang Qingwen, the commander-in-chief of the Guards, is skillful and generous, gentle and honest, with outstanding appearance.Now that the eldest prince has become crowned and the side concubine has not yet been established, he should choose a virtuous woman to marry him. The daughter-in-law Huang Wanrong is waiting in her boudoir. She and the eldest prince can be said to be a match made in heaven. They are the beauty of a beautiful woman, and I hereby marry them.All the etiquette is handed over to the Ministry of Rituals and Qin Tianjian, and a good day is chosen for the wedding.

This is it. "

Huang Qingwen, who was still worried about this, was really surprised by this imperial decree.

Could it be that Cheng Muze was really interested in his daughter?Even now, he can't accept this "marriage".After all, it's his own daughter, how can he be so willing...

But it never occurred to her that this marriage was a plan that was settled a long time ago.

For a while, it seemed that apart from this, there were no other major events.

On August 15th, the [-]th year of Shunqing, the eldest prince married his side concubine Huang Wanrong.

On October 16, the 22th year of Shunqing, the main concubine An Weixue was abolished, and the side concubine Huang Wanrong was made the main concubine. In December of the same year, Huang Wanrong gave birth to a son who was the eldest grandson of the royal family.

Hengde Emperor Longxin was very happy, and he personally bestowed the name Cheng Liyin, with small characters Shuzhen.

In the 17th year of Shunqing, Emperor Hengde wanted to choose a concubine for the crown prince, but the crown prince refused in every possible way, saying that he had done nothing, and that he really didn't care about the love of his children, and the minister's persuasion was useless, so the prince's marriage was delayed.

In February of the 18th year of Shunqing, Emperor Hengde went out of the palace for a private visit in March, and handed over state affairs to the crown prince and the first prince to handle together, and the left and right ministers assisted together.

At the end of May of the same year, the new round of imperial examinations also came to an end.

The new official took office, and all the vacancies before were filled.

There is only one Shangshu position left vacant.
