"What!"
Lu Qingtang couldn't believe his ears.
She was sitting in front of the dressing table and had just taken off her earrings when she heard Mo Zeshen talking to her about this.
Mo Ze gritted his teeth deeply, "She is really haunting. She drove her away and refused to let me go. I...I really want to chop her in pieces with a knife!"
After saying that, he looked at Lu Qingtang again and continued: "Father said, this matter is up to you. When you enter the palace tomorrow, you directly reject the Ning family and then push it on me. If it doesn't work, just say I am not capable enough to control so many women."
"Pfft", Lu Qingtang laughed out loud, and she almost lost her breath from laughing.
Mo Zeshen hurriedly stepped forward to give her some relief, and said with a worried look on his face: "Stop laughing, carefully remove the fetal air."
"Didn't you say it on purpose to make me laugh? What do you think? Isn't it obvious that you can't tell everyone? You can say something that hurts your self-esteem. Is this the case for the Ning family who are so shameless?" Lu Qingtang With that said, he took off the hairpin on his head.
Mo Zeshen stood behind her and helped her get a few more hairpins, while saying, "I don't care about the lack of face, as long as I don't embarrass you. You said it's all about face, so we can live well as a couple." , who cares about the rest."
Lu Qingtang smiled, feeling warm in his heart.
His words were enough, which at least proved that Mo Zeshen was sincere towards him.
But, why is it that Prince Chen's Palace has lost face? Shouldn't it be that they, Uncle Chongxin, have lost face?
Thinking of this, Lu Qingtang said: "Your Majesty, there is actually no need to do this. I have already made a countermeasure, which will neither let Ning Xinran enter the house nor embarrass Your Majesty. However, in the future, we will have to deal with relatives of the Ning family. It won’t work.”
Mo Ze knew what Lu Qingtang wanted to do. He hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Leave this matter to the princess. I believe in the princess. When she needs me, I will come forward to support the princess."
Lu Qingtang nodded, smiled at him, and then continued to remove the remaining hairpin rings.
Early the next morning, Lu Qingtang appeared in the palace with beaded hair and gorgeous clothes. Standing next to Mo Zeshen, he looked very suitable.
Under the guidance of Eunuch Xu, the couple entered the study room of Wende Hall and saw Chong Xinbo and his wife and Ning Xinran at a glance.
Ning Xinran was obviously much thinner than she was a few months ago. She looked like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind, as if it would wither at any moment.
Lu Qingtang first bowed to His Majesty, then to Mr. and Mrs. Chongxin, and then His Majesty asked her to sit down, and she sat on a chair beside him.
This was the only honor. Even Mo Zeshen had to stand, let alone Chong Xinbo's family of three.
"Princess Chen, Shen'er has told you everything. I think it's up to you two to make the decision on this matter. As an old man, I won't get involved." Emperor Kang Yuan smiled kindly.
However, Lu Qingtang saw a cunning person on his face.
He didn't like Uncle Chong Xin. He knew that Uncle Chong Xin had a bad character, and he didn't want his children to have entanglements with the royal family. But it was even harder to refuse Uncle Chong Xin, so he directly handed the matter over to Lu Qingtang.
How could Lu Qingtang not see that he wanted to be a peacemaker and not offend anyone inside or outside.
No wonder his mother-in-law always treated him indifferently. She probably knew that Emperor Kang Yuan had a cold nature and didn't want to have complicated emotions with him.
It doesn't matter if you don't love him, he will be strong. Anyway, Emperor Kang Yuan will not consider anyone if he is wronged.
He always loves himself.
Lu Qingtang nodded, and then said to Emperor Kang Yuan: "Your Majesty, my daughter-in-law is willing to marry a concubine for the prince. Some time ago, my sister was uneasy, so she had no choice but to let her go home to recuperate. Now I am the only one to take care of her. My lord, I am really unable to do what I want. Now I am getting better. Having an extra sister gives me some free time to take good care of my two children."
After hearing Lu Qingtang's words, Emperor Kang Yuan's originally amiable expression immediately turned cold, but he still nodded, "Okay, does Princess Chen mean to agree to Ning Xinran's entry into the palace?"
His tone was obviously a question, not a statement.
Lu Qingtang couldn't hear it, but he still pretended not to know, nodded and said: "Of course I agree. Cousin Ning is beautiful, and she is a relative of her own family. She seems closer to her than people outside, so why not Not?"
As she spoke, she looked at Chong Xinbo's family of three.
Ning Xinran's face was obviously happy, and the corners of her mouth were raised, wanting to smile but not daring to.
Smiling and smiling, he did not forget to look at Mo Zeshen, pretending to be as affectionate as the sea.
Chong Xinbo was obviously relieved and looked at Jiang. The pride in Jiang's eyes could not be hidden.
Lu Qingtang, who was closest to Emperor Kang Yuan, heard Emperor Kang Yuan sigh, and then he said: "Okay, since Princess Chen has made the decision, I can't say anything. King Chen and Princess Chen can decide for themselves the other days." Get off."
As he spoke, he stood up and was about to walk out.
It was obvious that Emperor Kang Yuan was angry.
Because Lu Qingtang did not reject the Ning family as he requested, he was unhappy.
It was obvious that he wanted to reject Chong Xinbo, but he still pretended to be embarrassed, and finally let Lu Qingtang bear all the blame.
If this matter spreads out in the future, it means that Lu Qingtang is a completely jealous woman, and she does not want Ning Xinran to marry into Prince Chen's palace.
Everyone has a face, but she is an outsider, and her face is not important.
Seeing Emperor Kang Yuan walking out, Lu Qingtang spoke again, "I have no objection to Cousin Ning entering the palace, but her identity must be verified. Although the rules in our palace are not as strict as those in the palace, there are still procedures."
Emperor Kang Yuan had already walked to the door at this time, and everyone knelt down to see him off. After hearing this, he turned back.
"Princess Chen, do you mean to test Ning Xinran's body?" Emperor Kang Yuan thought he heard wrongly and asked her again.
Not only Emperor Kang Yuan, but also the three members of the Ning family thought so.
They also thought they heard wrongly.
I had only heard that one had to take a physical exam before becoming a concubine in the palace, but I didn’t expect that one would also need to take a physical exam before becoming a concubine in the palace.
The first person who felt uneasy was Ning Xinran. She knew very well that she was no longer a virgin and was no longer qualified to marry anyone.
But she was unwilling to do so. Why was her life so miserable? The robber wanted to kidnap her even though he didn't want to rob anyone else.
This is not fair!
She inquired that marrying a princess as a concubine would be like getting married in ordinary times. She would only need to put a pigeon blood bag in her body in advance to disguise it. The room was pitch dark anyway, and she could get away with pretending to be in pain, but she didn't want Lu Qingtang to do this.
Her palms started to sweat and she was scared.
