Chapter 111: Prince's marriage
Chapter 111 The Prince's Marriage
"Your Majesty, don't you worry?" Concubine Li endured, but she couldn't help but say, "The Feng family's position in the court is already overshadowed by one hand, and now their daughter is married to Shouzhuan again. King Qingping of military power, does the emperor know the truth of meritorious deeds?"
It is reasonable to say that the concubine is not allowed to participate in the affairs of the state. It is indeed a loss of identity for her to say such words now, but she can't care about it.
When Nan Huang heard the words, he took a deep look at her with a slightly solemn expression on his face.
"presumptuous!"
The words had already been said, and it was too late to take them back. Concubine Li knelt on the ground with a sincere expression on her face.
She had to take a gamble. Now that there are so many rumors outside, she doesn't believe that the emperor doesn't know at all. With so many lessons from previous dynasties, isn't he afraid that he will end up like that?
"Chen and concubine know that loyal words are hard to listen to, but no matter what, Chen and concubine are all for the emperor and for the sake of the prince."
Nan Huang put his hands behind his back and paced slowly in the room. It was obvious that he was thinking about it in his heart.
Finally, he opened his mouth slowly: "Then tell me, how did you have such an idea. The Feng family was the hero of the founding of the country, and they have been loyal to the country for three generations, and King Qingping led the frontier soldiers on the border for Nanchu. We are born and die to keep our Nanchu from being disturbed by the two countries of Yan and Xiao. If even such loyal ministers have to be suspicious, wouldn't it be too much to live up to their efforts, then what is the difference between me and those ignorant monarchs who do not distinguish between right and wrong? ?"
Concubine Li's heart sank. Could it be that...she made a wrong bet?
Has the emperor's trust in them really reached such an irresistible level? Not even the slightest suspicion?
"Chen concubine, Chen concubine..." She trembled, and some did not dare to speak again.
Originally, what she said today was a serious violation of the law. If it aroused the emperor's anger again, then she would shoot herself in the foot.
Just as she was constantly thinking about how to find a reason to solve this matter, she didn't want Nan Huang to speak again at this time.
"However, what you said is not wrong. No matter what happens, you should take precautions before it happens. I am sitting on this dragon chair now, and they dare not do anything, but if the prince succeeds in the future, there is no guarantee that there will be a birth in the imperial court. What an oddity."
The sudden change in his attitude made Concubine Li unable to reflect.
Don't look at the magnanimous appearance of Nanhuang on weekdays, no matter what, he is also an emperor. If there is no scheming, it is impossible to sit in this seat so safely, and his mind is not something that ordinary people can speculate.
And hearing the word "different heart" he said, Li Fei inevitably felt a little guilty and felt that she had been included in it.
"Yeah, if they can always be sincere, of course it's good, but it's hard to guarantee that they will suddenly have ambitions after the strong alliance. At that time, who can stop the entire Nanchu?"
She probably also saw something now. Since the emperor said such a thing, it means that he does not completely trust the Qingping King and the Feng family.
Now he reuses them just because he wants to use them to consolidate the country and stabilize the situation, and just treat them as tools of use. This is imperial power.
"You don't need to worry about this, because I have already figured out a solution. I have already drawn up the imperial edict to confer the marriage of the eldest lady of Chen Guogong's mansion, Chen Shuxian, to the prince as a concubine, and I will go to announce the edict tomorrow."
What? This news shocked Li Fei even more, and it was too sudden.
"This... How could the emperor suddenly make such a decision? Didn't Miss Chen want to marry the second prince before, but now she is willing to agree?"
Hearing the words, the emperor couldn't help but glance at her coldly: "Could it be that in your eyes, the prince is not comparable to Chen'er?"
"Chen and concubine dare not. Since ancient times, there have been differences between concubines and concubines. The crown prince came from the first empress, and is the only direct son of the emperor. No matter how good the second prince is, it is impossible to compare with the prince. It's just that Miss Chen likes the second prince. It's a well-known thing, and the concubine is just a little surprised now."
Not only surprised, but simply angry.
Why every time the development of things is not what they expected?
Ever since she learned that Feng Yinshuang had long been dissociated with them, Concubine Li began to look for a new concubine for Nan Yutian.
The most powerful force in this dynasty is the Feng family, and if it is the next best thing, then of course it is the Duke Chen's residence.
Now they and the Feng family have almost torn apart their faces, especially after the Acacia breakup incident, which means that there is no longer any possibility between them, so Concubine Li wanted to let the young lady of Chen Guogong's manor marry her son.
Anyway, the second prince has already asked the emperor to marry Shen Ying as his concubine. It is absolutely impossible for Chen Shuxian to marry him. Now she must be full of resentment towards the second prince and Feng Yinshuang. With their help, they can restore their current loss situation.
But before she had time to plan this matter with Nan Yutian, the news of the emperor came like a bolt from the blue, which made her stunned.
"About this, you don't have to worry, because Chen Guogong personally asked me for the marriage, and it was Miss Chen's own willingness. I asked Qing'er, and he was very satisfied with that Miss Chen, too. Why not adult beauty?"
What kind of adult beauty, this is simply his own careful calculation.
Nan Yuqing has always been mediocre and incompetent, and he only promises, how could he express any opinion.
As for Chen Shuxian, did she feel that she could not marry the second prince, so she wanted to pick up Gaozhi and deliberately came to take revenge.
No matter how angry Li Fei is, she should understand that her abacus has failed again.
"Since that's the case, it's really a big happy event." She tried her best to maintain a smile, but a storm had already set off in her heart.
In order to keep the status of the crown prince, the emperor really took great pains. Before, he put his idea on Feng Yinshuang, but after that, he took a fancy to Chen Shuxian again.
Ever since the fight between Feng Yinshuang and Chen Shuxian in Tianxiang Tower, the Feng family and Chen Guogong's mansion have been on the same page. At such a juncture, when the emperor bestowed Chen Shuxian's marriage to the crown prince as a concubine, it did not mean that Chen Guogong's mansion was included in his own. Under his wings, did he tell the Feng family that they were untouchable? In this way, the Feng family was obviously at a disadvantage in the battle with Chen Guogong's mansion.
Now that Concubine Li can't get any good fruit to eat, she can only analyze the pros and cons from it.
Maybe this is not a bad thing, she can watch their forces fight, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman.
