The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 918 Granted Marriage (3)

Looking at his cousin who suddenly became enlightened, a smile flashed in Chu Heng's eyes. He pretended not to see Emperor Hui'an's serious expression, and made up his mind to settle his cousin's life-long affairs today, so he continued. : "Father, Hanzhang has lived and died in the border gates for so many years. He has made great contributions to the country of Dachu and is loyal to his sons and ministers. Besides, Hejia has cultivated high-yielding rice. Such achievements are even more immeasurable, and she did not care about the danger to her life. , went to the mountains many times just to find medicinal materials to save the lives of my sons and ministers. Could it be that everything the two of them have done cannot be exchanged for a piece of marriage from the emperor?"

Emperor Hui'an ignored the kneeling Xiao Ruiyuan, looked at his son with his elbows turned out with an unhappy expression, and said in a deep voice: "The gap in status is too great, how could we know that there won't be many conflicts in the future? I granted the marriage rashly, but it was just a promotion. For a pair of resentful couples, in my opinion, it would be more appropriate to give Hanzhang a noble girl as his wife."

Chu Heng knew that this was an excuse for his father to be unwilling to grant a marriage, so he retorted: "It is important to be well-matched, but it is not absolute! The previous Emperor Taizu came from a noble family, but he married a fisherman's daughter as his queen. For this reason, he abolished the harem and doted on the queen all his life, which has become an eternal legend. This has nothing to do with the concierge."

These well-founded words made Emperor Hui'an speechless. He stared at Chu Heng, feeling quite angry. It's just that the child didn't understand his hard work, and he openly "disobeyed" him for the sake of an outsider. Was it because he was too indulgent that he gave his son the courage to do this?

Feeling Emperor Hui'an's anger, Xiao Ruiyuan and Yan Junyu were filled with worry. Xiao Ruiyuan still couldn't figure out why Emperor Hui'an stopped him from being with his beloved, but he didn't want to cause discord between the father and son of the Tian family because of his affairs.

Chu Heng shook his head slightly at his two cousins, indicating that he was fine. Seeing what Xiao Ruiyuan wanted to say, he interrupted: "I have important things to discuss with my father. You go outside first."

Xiao Ruiyuan swallowed the words that came to his lips, looked at each other with Yan Junyu, and both looked at Emperor Hui'an. Seeing that Emperor Hui'an had no objection, he had to bow and leave, and walked out of the dining room with full of worries.

After the two left, Eunuch Liang and the two guards also withdrew, leaving only Chu Heng and Emperor Hui'an in the room.

The father and son were in a stalemate for a long time, with no one willing to compromise. Chu Heng gradually lost his patience and said with a cold face: "Father, there is something that I have been hiding from you, that is, Han Zhang has been engaged to Miss Mo, and it was in The betrothal letter was signed in the presence of my son and hundreds of villagers. If you don’t want my son to be notorious for robbing his brother’s wife in the future, then you can grant it to them.”

"Nonsense!" Emperor Hui'an didn't know about this at all. When he heard it, he stood up in shock and glared at Chu Heng: "Have you forgotten what I told you?"

Seeing that Emperor Hui'an was really angry, Chu Heng's mood actually improved. He leisurely picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea. After thinking about it, he finally poured a cup for Emperor Hui'an. He held it up with both hands and handed it to Emperor Hui'an. He said seriously: "Father, I have not forgotten this. It’s just that the thing you mentioned didn’t happen, even if it does become a reality one day, don’t you think I have no solution? I know Hanzhang better than you do. Anyone in the world can betray Erchen. He alone can’t!”

Having said this, Chu Heng paused, changed the topic in the disapproving eyes of Emperor Hui'an, and continued: "Bi Mo is a girl with a better family background, a pretty and smart girl, there are many things in the capital, but Hanzhang has nothing to do with her." I am devoted to Miss Mo alone! I can't understand such feelings, but I can't help but think about it. If my father had been devoted to my mother and the harem was clean, my mother would still be alive, and my son wouldn't have to endure the two. More than ten years of suffering from illness..."
