But Fuqing is a little too young and is not comparable to Han Du at all. Could it be that at such a young age, Han Du discovered the bad habits of Song Dynasty literati through reading? Thinking of this, Lao Zhu frowned and felt a little unhappy.
"If you don't like it, then let this matter go. You can make another request." Lao Zhu said calmly, directly blocking the idea that Han Du might like Fuqing. Lao Zhu is very good to his children, so he naturally does not want Fuqing to suffer such injustice. This was because Lao Zhu saw that Han Du had made great contributions. If anyone else had dared to make such a request in front of him, he would have been dismissed from office long ago.
"I sincerely request the emperor to marry Princess Anqing." Han Du finished speaking sonorously and looked at Lao Zhu seriously.
As soon as Han Du's words came out, everyone was stunned. A solemn atmosphere suddenly descended, and the drop of a needle could be heard here. Zhu Fang and other princes all stared at Han Du blankly, not daring to make a sound for fear of attracting their father's attention.
Lao Zhu's face turned livid at some point. Looking at Han Du in front of him, his voice was low and cold, and he asked word by word, "What did you say?"
"I don't want a title or a reward. I just ask the emperor to marry Princess Anqing to me." Han Du said again sincerely.
Snapped! ! !
The furious Lao Zhu threw the tea cup in front of Han Du with a wave of his hand and cursed angrily: "You bastard, do you know what you are talking about?"
Han Du stared at Lao Zhu closely, not understanding Lao Zhu's rage. In Han Du's opinion, isn't this just marrying a daughter? Anyway, the two of them are not married yet, so who is not marrying?
But what Han Du didn't know was that once the three books and six etiquettes started at this time, the two people would be considered inseparable, and the rest were just going through the process. Therefore, Han Du wants Lao Zhu to marry Princess Anqing to him now, which is actually the same as asking Lao Zhu to regret the marriage first and then marry Princess Anqing to Han Du.
Lao Zhu was an emperor with a golden tongue. He wanted him to retract his words and then marry Han Du. How could he not be angry? Ordinary people still have to pay attention to one thing, every spit is a pit, let alone Lao Zhu. Isn't Lao Zhu shameless?
Seeing Han Du kneeling in front of him with his neck stiffened, Lao Zhu became even more angry and kicked Han Du angrily.
Zhu Biao was shocked when he saw it and exclaimed: "Father, no!!!"
A glimmer of clarity flashed in Lao Zhu's eyes, and he immediately reduced his strength by seven or eight points. Just kicking Han Du on the body, he kicked Han Du to the ground.
Han Du felt as if his chest had been hit by a heavy hammer. The pain was very uncomfortable, but he was still able to hold on.
"Get out, get out of here right now."
Han Du wanted to say something more, but when he saw Zhu Biao on the side constantly hinting at him, he had no choice but to bow his head and retreat.
After Han Du left, Lao Zhu was still furious. He turned to look at Zhu Biao and asked, "When did they meet?"
Zhu Biao was stunned when he heard this, he was so flattering that he didn't know what to say. Under his father's oppressive eyes, he had no choice but to tell the truth: "One time, I had some questions, so I summoned Han Du to the East Palace. I happened to meet An Qing who came to the East Palace to find my son..."
Hearing that Han Du and An Qing had indeed met, Lao Zhu's expression turned a little bad. Shen Sheng continued to ask: "What happened next? How many times did the two of them meet?"
"No more." Zhu Biao quickly assured his father, "I can guarantee that they have only met once, and they have never seen each other since then."
Hearing this, the anger on Lao Zhu's face eased slightly. He was afraid that Han Du and An Qing would regard the East Palace as a place for trysts. If this spreads out, not to mention Han Du and Anqing, even Zhu Biao will inevitably be criticized.
The East Palace of the majestic prince of a country has become a private meeting place for the two of them, and there is also a marriage contract in Anqing. If this spreads out, how will the prince inherit the throne in the future? Among them, when Zhu Biao said that Han Du and An Qing had met in the East Palace, a flash of deepness flashed in his eyes, and the word destiny appeared in his mind.
In order to train the prince, Lao Zhu worked hard for more than ten years and spent countless efforts. It can be said that Lao Zhu gave Zhu Biao everything he could.
If Zhu Biao's succession to the throne is affected by this, then Lao Zhu will definitely go crazy and want to kill people. No matter how great Han Du's contribution is, he cannot be forgiven.
Fortunately, An Qing and Han Du only met once, and it was by chance. No matter what the final outcome of this matter was, it had no impact on Zhu Biao at all. This made Lao Zhu Leiting angry, but also felt a little lucky.
But fortunately, this incident still made Lao Zhu feel very angry. He snorted coldly, turned around and walked straight towards Anqing's dormitory without saying a word.
After what happened, and the fact that his father left with anger on his face, King Qin and others looked at each other and felt that they had better retreat first. But now the situation is unclear, and they are afraid of angering their father by leaving rashly. Several people could only stay in place for a while, not knowing what to do.
Fortunately, Queen Ma understood what they were thinking, waved her hand and said, "Queen Mother is tired today, you all can step aside."
"Thank you, Queen Mother..." King Qin and others bowed and left the palace. Zhu Di followed several brothers. After walking out of the city gate, he glanced back at the East Palace without leaving any trace.
When Queen Ma saw that Zhu Biao had not retreated and was still standing uneasily, she asked, "Why are you staying here if you don't leave?"
"Queen Mother, how can I leave?" Zhu Biao was anxious and begged: "My father must have gone to find Anqing now. Queen Mother, please go and persuade your father to save Anqing. Now, only Queen Mother can I can persuade my father."
Queen Ma glanced at Zhu Biao expressionlessly and said calmly: "I'm not going. I said I'm tired today, so you have to go by yourself." After saying that, regardless of Zhu Biao's continuous pleading, With Xiaocui's help, Shi Shiran returned to the palace.
Zhu Biao was left standing there alone, not knowing what to do.
He wanted to persuade his father, but Zhu Biao himself didn't know if his persuasion would add fuel to the fire under such circumstances. But if he didn't persuade him, Anqing would definitely be facing his father's anger now, and he couldn't bear it in his heart. After thinking about it, Zhu Biao gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and hurried towards Anqing. He still couldn't leave without knowing that An Qing was about to face his angry father.
