Chapter 294: The secret that only he knows, do you still need His Highness?
Xiao Jinyan never thought about letting his father understand him. No matter how busy he was reviewing memorials, he did have time to consummate the marriage. It was just a matter of whether he was willing or not.
"Replying to Father, no."
The emperor had not worked overtime to review memorials for some days, so he felt much more relaxed and spent more time with the queen.
Hearing the prince's words, he felt relieved, but when he thought that the prince had not yet consummated the marriage with Princess Xueyan, he couldn't help but frowned.
"Then why don't you take time to consummate the marriage with Princess Xueyan?"
Xiao Jinyan was silent for a moment and replied, "Your son doesn't like it."
As a man, the emperor thought he understood men. Even if it was not his favorite, what was the difficulty in consummating the marriage?
"Princess Xueyan has the Xueyue Kingdom behind her. If you let Xueyan suffer grievances and let Xueyue Kingdom think that our Great Xia treated Xueyan poorly, it would only be a consummation of the marriage."
The emperor meant that there was an explanation for consummating the marriage, and it was not necessary for her to be pregnant.
Even so, Xiao Jinyan did not want to consummate the marriage with Xueyan.
He couldn't do what his father did to his mother, who loved him deeply and had three palaces and six courtyards.
In the eyes of outsiders, his father doted on Concubine Ning and regarded her as his favorite.
But the fact was not so. His father's feelings for his mother were not comparable to those of other women.
The contradiction was that even if his father's favorite was his mother, it did not prevent him from having sex with other women.
Even his mother didn't know this secret, and he only learned it by accidentally hearing his father's inner thoughts.
The emperor said seriously: "You should take time to consummate your marriage with Princess Xueyan in the next two days. You are the prince, and there is a great deal of power involved. I don't need to remind you."
Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyebrows and nodded, "Your son understands."
After leaving the imperial study, Xiao Jinyan still felt an invisible pressure, pressing him tightly, making him breathless.
He was probably the first person to be forced to consummate his marriage with a woman.
When he returned to the East Palace, Xueyan came, her eyes were red, and she obviously looked like she had been crying.
The person Xiao Jinyan least wanted to see was Xueyan, but she just moved forward.
"Your Highness, I am here to admit my mistake." Xueyan choked up.
Xiao Jinyan looked at her guilty look coldly, "What mistake?"
"Today, I went to the Queen's place to chat about family matters. I accidentally let it slip. The Queen mentioned the matter of consummating the marriage and asked again and again. I couldn't deceive the Queen, so I told the truth. Who would have thought that the emperor would come to see the Queen at this time and listen to the truth."
Xueyan said, looking at Xiao Jinyan with tears in her eyes, "Your Highness, it was really an unintentional mistake."
She was so proud in her heart that as long as the emperor put pressure on her, Xiao Jinyan would have no choice but to consummate the marriage with her.
It was fine to occupy Xiao Jinyan a few days ago, but now that Xiao Jinyan is busy, Shen Liangdi even wants to occupy Xiao Jinyan for dinner.
Who is Shen Liangdi?
Why should I compete with her?
Even though Xiao Jinyan was used to hearing the dark and scheming in women's hearts, when she heard Xueyan slandering Xiaojiu, her eyes suddenly darkened, "Go back, I still have something to do."
Xueyan wiped her tears and looked at Xiao Jinyan aggrievedly, "Your Highness, are you still angry with me?"
Xiao Jinyan looked at Xueyan coldly, "Why should I be angry?"
Xueyan was stunned for a moment, and she couldn't figure out what Xiao Jinyan was thinking. She asked carefully and tentatively: "Your Highness, are you really not angry!"
Xiao Jinyan said: "I will go to your place for dinner after I finish my work in the past two days."
Xueyan was happy to hear this, and she said softly: "I know, I will prepare in advance."
Sure enough, the emperor still needs to come forward, otherwise with Xiao Jinyan's attitude, I don't know when I can sleep with the emperor and get pregnant.
Xueyan happily left the prince's bedroom.
Back to the Qimeng Palace, Xueyan picked up the lucky bag under the pillow and put it on her chest. This time, she tried to get a boy in one fell swoop, so that Shen Chuwei could see that only those with children would be the winners.
The news of Xueyan's upcoming bed, whether intentional or unintentional, quickly spread throughout the East Palace.
Concubine Xu went to the Hehuan Palace as soon as she got the news, her handkerchief waving quickly.
Caixia was no longer surprised, and followed closely behind with small steps.
Shen Chuwei had just finished lunch and was about to take a nap. Before she took off her shoes, she heard Concubine Xu coming in cursing.
"What's wrong?"
"I heard that His Highness will go to the Qimeng Palace for dinner and stay overnight in the next two days." Concubine Xu walked and said to the bed.
Shen Chuwei asked, "Who told you that?"
Concubine Xu couldn't help but raise her voice, "Everyone knows it, don't you know it?"
Shen Chuwei didn't hear anything outside the window. If Concubine Xu hadn't said it, she really wouldn't know it.
"Really?"
"Of course." Concubine Xu grabbed Shen Chuwei's hand, "Your Highness is not clean."
A few days ago, Xiao Jinyan told her to believe him.
Not to the point that he changed his mind after just a few days.
"No, I believe Your Highness." Shen Chuwei continued to take off her shoes.
"Your Highness said this to Concubine Xue herself." Concubine Xu said, leaning close to Shen Chuwei's ear and whispering, "I heard that the emperor was furious and called Your Highness to the imperial study to teach him a lesson."
Shen Chuwei paused while taking off her shoes.
Concubine Xu continued, "The emperor is hugging women left and right, so he must be asking Your Highness to consummate the marriage quickly."
Shen Chuwei understood, "Your Highness is facing not only the heir, but also the pressure of consummating the marriage."
Concubine Xu nodded vigorously, "Yes, Xueyan is the princess of Xueyue Kingdom, and the emperor will definitely intervene in this matter. If the emperor puts pressure on you, Your Highness may be powerless to resist."
Now Shen Chuwei said sincerely: "Then His Highness is under great pressure, and I can't share his worries and relieve his work."
Xu Concubine sighed, "Even if His Highness doesn't want to, it's not possible."
Shen Chuwei also sighed, "It's too difficult for His Highness."
Xu Concubine sighed: "Since ancient times, emperors have been fickle, and I don't know whether His Highness is a fickle person or a passionate person."
At night, the emperor asked Eunuch Li to deliver a large number of memorials to the East Palace as usual, and he went to Fengyi Palace himself.
The queen, who had just finished bathing, heard that the dog emperor came again, and thought that the dog emperor must have something to ask of her, otherwise why did he run to Fengyi Palace these days?
It was impossible to pretend to sleep, so she had to bow to greet him.
The emperor walked in and saw that the emperor's hair ornaments had been removed, and he was wearing a bright red dress, which matched her snow-white skin.
"Queen, you haven't rested yet."
The queen couldn't help rolling her eyes. Who is so early at this time?
"Is the emperor not busy today?"
The emperor said, "Since the prince has been reviewing memorials, I have been free for a while. I have time to accompany you. Are you happy?"
The queen: "..." Is it because Concubine Ning is pregnant and can't sleep with you? Otherwise, how can you come to Fengyi Palace?
The emperor took the queen's hand and sat down beside the bed, "Queen, I have something to tell you."
"What does the emperor want to say?" If he wants to promote Concubine Ning to a noble concubine, get out of here as far as you can!
The emperor got straight to the point and said, "It's about the prince and Shen Liangdi."
My dear children, good evening!
