Chapter 489 - 489 The Emperor’s Marriage, The Crown Prince’s Engagement
East Palace in the Qing Yun Guan to the Crown Princess ceremony thing, know a lot of people, originally there are many people to go to worship, is the Prince said no one else to go over, said he just want to quietly accompany the Crown Princess, and therefore no one to go over, and I do not know whether the rumors of Xiao’s is true or false.
If it is true, Xiao can really careless, this kind of thing is can be careless? It is no wonder that Mrs. Tai returned to the house to cane Xiao, no matter how many beatings, Xiao’s face is lost, and this matter also spread out.
If it wasn’t true, such a rumor coming out, the credibility is still very high, after all, it must be the Crown Princess’s mother’s family, so why would someone rumor such a thing? If there must be someone who wants to step on the face of the Crown Princess’s maiden family, it would only be the future Crown Princess… So this Jingyu County Gentleman is going to lay hands on the Ling’an Burial Mansion?
The crowd’s doubts have not yet subsided, the emperor’s a holy decree down, directly shocked the entire capital’s calm.
The Emperor has given a marriage, and the marriage was given to the Crown Prince and the Jingyu County Gentleman.
If it was before, everyone was bound to express their sincere blessings one-sidedly, but this time out, making many hearts have a few more doubts about the Crown Prince and Jingyu County Jun.
Is the Crown Prince sincere about the former Crown Princess?
Can the character of the Prefect of Jingyu really be enough to take on the role of the Crown Princess?
Since the passing of the Crown Princess, there are quite a few things about the Crown Prince and this Jingyu County Gentleman, each of which doesn’t sound as if it’s true, but with so many connections, and a few that happen to be on the spot, privately passed around so much that they’ve already become completely different.
The Prince isn’t necessarily deep in love, he may just be doing a facepalm.
The Prince’s side consort is also not much sisterhood, and may even step on the Prince Consort before entering the East Palace, I do not know where there are still rumors that the side consort is angry with the Prince Consort.
Is the King’s Jade Prefect really in love with the Crown Prince, or is she related to the Marquis of Yongning’s son?
Jingyu county gentleman really tolerate this side consort of the East Palace, and did not intend to take action against the Crown Princess and the side consort’s mother’s family? This time, the second house of Linganbofu’s Mrs. Xiao was beaten, really has nothing to do with this Jingyu County?
After all, it was early rumored that this Jingyu Prefect and the Crown Prince spent the Tanabata Festival together.
Even if there was no official decree coming down, it had already been known amongst the worldly families that this Jingyu County Gentleman was the future Crown Princess, but who had released this news?
Is it Liu Shangshu’s momentum for his own daughter? This is the meaning of must be married into the East Palace, I heard that this Jingyu County gentleman initially also and King Jing close relationship.
Was it King Jing, or Marquis Yongning’s son, or ultimately the Crown Prince at the moment?
Everyone was celebrating on the surface, but secretly they were all discussing this matter, and they all felt that there was quite a bit of mystery in it, and that the Crown Prince and the new Crown Princess at the moment were not the most suitable ones, I’m afraid.
So again, some people lamented about the last Crown Princess and how well the previous Crown Princess and His Royal Highness matched ……
East Palace, Pei Luo-an’s study inside, the book case on the folding was thrown all over the place, a mess, Pei Luo-an’s face angry iron green, hand heavy in the desktop a clap, above placed a scented capsule immediately fell to the ground, this past day he seems to cherish exceptionally scented capsule, but no one dares to go to pick up.
“Go into the palace!” Pei Luoan calmed his anger, turned around and headed out.
A few chamberlains followed closely, and together they traveled outside the mansion and got into the carriage, which went all the way forward, and in no time at all, they circled around to the front of the palace gates.
Pei Luo An got off the carriage, the guards at the door hurriedly saluted once they saw that it was the Crown Prince, Pei Luo An waved his hand, and without looking back, marched towards the palace in large strides.
Entering the palace gates, he went straight to the Empress Mother’s Pepper Room Hall.
The Empress Mother, who was full of joy, knew it was bad as soon as she took a look at her son’s face and waved her hand to let all the others go down before asking, “Son, but what has happened?”
“Mother, why did father emperor give the decree all of a sudden, didn’t he say before that there would be a further delay, the crown princess’s corpse is not yet cold, this is not the right time.” Pei Luoan held back strongly before speaking.
“These are your earliest words, didn’t you also say before that after this offering to Ji Hanyue, you will finalize the matter between you and Liu Jingyu, isn’t it better now?” Empress Dowager asked in confusion.
“Mother, that’s what I said before, but didn’t Lone also talk to you yesterday, saying that there’s no rush on this matter and to wait a little longer .” Pei Luoan said with annoyance.
“You are a country’s crown prince, how can you be so childish, JiHanYue has died, auxiliary general’s daughter is going to the capital, I heard that side of the heart wants to marry this Miss Liu, and auxiliary general to climb on the in-laws, you at this time if you don’t do anything about it, it’s too late, is it possible to wait for that side of the formal after the hand, you the crown prince light crown prince position, but without any military power , who will care about you?”
The Empress hated the iron and said, “The Palace thought about it yesterday, and felt that since you have already loosened your mouth, this matter should be done down earlier, although the Duke of Qi is now not in charge of military power in his hands, but the victory is in the old subordinates in the past, are in charge of military power, in the line of military generals, auxiliary generals to see the Duke of Qi, also had to ambush the body of the speech, and also there is still the Liushangshu, Liu Shanshu’s ability to people that your Father has always praised.”
The Empress does not feel that this gift of marriage is sudden, in fact, at this time there is also her meaning in, the emperor also asked her yesterday, she felt good.
“Mother, that’s not what I meant!” Pei Luoan settled down in his chair and reached out to press his forehead on his brow.
“Not this meaning which meaning is it, is it not for the sake of Ji You Ran?” Empress Dowager’s face sank, “Crown Prince, you have to remember, Ji You Ran is only a side consort, Ling An Bo House is also defeated, even if she is allowed to be a side consort, she is barely, this is still for the sake of Ji Hanyue, she can only be able to sit firmly in this side consort’s position, can it be that she still wants to ascend to the position of the main consort?”
The Empress Mother thought that Ji You Ran had picked Pei Luo An to mess with her, and exasperatedly said.
“Mother, you misunderstand again, yesterday Ji You Ran has already let Lone send to the remote side consort’s courtyard that was prepared before, not living in the main courtyard, the cause is also because she is not attentive in the Crown Princess’s sacrificial rite, even her biological mother Xiao was also warned by Lone after returning to the house to be beaten by Mrs. Ji.”
Pei Luoan said, “There are quite a lot of rumors at this time, I was surprised for a moment, and father’s decree came down at this time, making it more and more difficult for me.”
Upon hearing that there was so much more going on here, the Empress froze for a moment, she really didn’t know.
“Empress Mother, it’s not just about Lone, it’s also about Liu Jingyu, does Empress Mother think that she’s really capable of taking on the position of Crown Princess?” Pei Luoan asked rhetorically.
The Empress was not happy with this question: ”This is full of the capital’s family miss, in addition to Liu Jingyu, who else is suitable with you? Even if those royal princesses gave birth to a princess, and how many have real power, Liu Jingyu’s back not only has a civil official line, there are also military generals line, compared to that auxiliary general’s daughter, is only strong, not weak.”
“Mother, I know Liu Jingyu is good, but she …… can she before with the second brother two …… and Yongning Marquis Shizi …… “Pei Luoan for a time could not say, this was originally his words of excuse, but after saying it, inexplicably feel indeed heart unhappy.
Although he didn’t have much interest in Liu Jingyu. But when he thought of Liu Jingyu having some ambiguity with his second brother before, he was still as tired and uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
“Crown Prince, you’re wrong, before with King Jing two, also is He Guifei and her mother’s things, and she has nothing to do with her, this thing her mother has explained to the Palace heard, as for that Marquis of Yongning’s world son, it is more of a misunderstanding, the Qu Mansion two sisters make a mess of things, and accidentally involved in the body of the willow jingyu, she is also extremely wronged.”
The Empress, who recently had an excellent relationship with Mrs. Liu Shangshu, subconsciously defended Liu Jingyu.
Seeing that the Empress Mother was bent on standing on Liu Jingyu’s side, the Crown Prince was angry and almost speechless, his heart inexplicably had a few more points of annoyance, in the past, when he had booked Ji Hanyue, the Empress Mother was in his own ear saying one after another that Ji Hanyue was not good here, not good there, and that even Ji Youyan was better than Ji Hanyue, and picking on Ji Hanyue’s faults at every turn.
It was stopped by myself, but I told myself over and over again after people.
Right now, but for a Liu Jingyu said so many good words.
Obviously Ji Hanyue is much better than Liu Jingyu, no, or the two people simply can’t be compared, where in the end does mother see Liu Jingyu is better than Ji Hanyue?
Right now is also not the time to discuss this, forcefully suppressing his temper, Pei Luoan said, “Mother, maybe the daughter of the auxiliary general is more suitable.”
A sentence to the Empress Mother startled, hastily lowered his voice and said: ”Crown Prince, you are not looking at the auxiliary general’s daughter? I heard that it is still one with an eye disease, what can you look at, your father’s meaning is to let her marry into the Utopia County King’s House, saying that the Utopia County King’s House has never had a female master, and against that person, no one can get good!”
Empress Mother said this with a few points of glee, King Jing wanted to marry this auxiliary general’s daughter, not to mention the auxiliary general’s intention, the Emperor here was not quite convinced.
That woman over there is powerful, at first can borrow into the palace to take care of the queen Yuan, so stay in the palace, and even gave birth to a son after the death of Yuan, but then powerful, can still have that boy powerful, this is not like will give people face, at first the face of the empress dowager dared to top.
Pei Luo An grimaced and didn’t say anything, he also wished that Pei Yusheng hadn’t married this auxiliary general’s daughter, but what if he let Pei Yuanjun marry? He didn’t like it either.
“Prince ……”
“Mother, this matter will be like this for the time being, father has already decreed, lone can’t refuse, but please mother bear in mind that it is not appropriate to go to rush the marriage, this marriage has its own state’s fixed law to deal with, take the process to be slower, it is also normal, if mother interferes privately again, other people will be even more skeptical of lone’s love for the prince consort.”
Pei Luoan said, the empress dowager’s wedding, the Ministry of Rites has its own process, when to walk the ceremony, when to hire, and even when to marry, have to follow the rules, Pei Luoan is afraid of the Empress Mother intervene in this matter, let people think he was anxious to get married, in his previous efforts will be wasted.
Empress Mother nodded: “Don’t worry, this palace knows that this is a lightweight, the next is all about the Ministry of Rites, this palace will not intervene, and will not even ask too many questions, how does the Ministry of Rites do it, there is its own determination.”
Seeing how the Empress Mother said it, Pei Luoan was relieved and her heart was slightly settled.
He settled down a little here, but there was another person who also had sleepless nights and tossed and turned because of this marriage ……
